Chapter 14: Why Don't You Go Die?
"d.a.m.n, this brat is so vigilant. The bag on his back is obviously for show. It must have been used to fool people." The skinny man said carefully.
"That's right. However, that treasure sword of his is likely expensive. It should be an Inferior Grade weapon." The knife-scarred man's gaze was vicious, seeing through everything with one glance.
"Then we…" Glimmers danced in the skinny man's eyes.
A low-rank mortal weapon was worth 100,000 taels of silver. Killing a person would cost 10,000 silver taels. Even if the youth had no Heaven & Earth Ring, killing him would still be worth it.
"Sneak close to him. If he discovers us, we will kill him quickly. We won't give him any chance!" The knife-scarred man tightened his grip on the blade in his hand.
"Alright!" The skinny man nodded, then softened his footsteps.
They estimated that Ye Xuan was only around fifteen years old. Even if the latter were a disciple of a clan, they were typically at the third level of the Martial Way, while others were at the fourth level of the Martial Way.
As for the two of them, one was at the middle fourth stage of the Martial eWayand the other was at the fourth peak stage, so killing Ye Xuan was an easy task.
Ye Xuan who was about to turn around and leave also jogged a bit, but soon felt that something was wrong and immediately turned back.
He only saw that the skinny man and the knife-scarred man had instantly increased their speed and was charging towards him.
"Good heavens, you really want to kill me for my treasure. Fxck you, don't think that I'm easy to bully! Since you want to die, then I don't mind cutting you open!"
Ye Xuan's anger rose. Although he had never personally killed before, the unlucky ghost had killed quite a few bandits before. Furthermore, this was a world where the strong preyed on the weak. If you did not kill someone, you would be killed.
With that, Ye Xuan pulled out his treasure sword and prepared to fight.
He could tell that both of them were around the fourth stage of the Martial Way. He should be able to handle them.
In the tenth stage of the Martial Way, every time there was a big breakthrough, the progress was tremendous. However, each stage had three small realms. This gap was not very obvious, so there would often be geniuses that would jump ranks to challenge and defeat the strong.
Right now, although Ye Xuan was at a disadvantage in terms of numbers, his strength was much higher than the two of them. Before the two of them even got close, he had already directly launched an attack.
