"Murder cultivation?"

Upon hearing Duan Xiaodao's words, Qin Tian was stunned, "Fourth brother, didn't you say you knew little about King Skeleton? He cultivates by murder, why didn't you tell me?"

Duan Xiaodao said, "I also heard about it, not sure, but I feel this sinister wind carries a bloody smell!"

Du Qiuniang also remembered something and said to Qin Tian, "Master, in the Spiritual Domain, some immortality cultivators seek shortcuts in cultivation and adopt extremely cruel methods, like consuming the flesh and blood of spiritual energy-rich immortality cultivators to enhance their power, or using magic artifacts that can absorb people dry to assist in cultivation..."

Qin Tian recalled eating that spiritual snake.

Since consuming a spiritual snake could replenish his power, logically, devouring a spiritual energy-filled immortality cultivator should help in power enhancement.

However, this is indeed quite brutal!

"Fourth brother, several young people you couldn't handle, too embarrassing for me!"

Just as the three were surprised, a voice rang from the distant forest, followed by two figures appearing suddenly close, moving swiftly, reaching White Heavenly King's side in an instant!

The two figures, one in black, shrouded entirely in a black robe, face unseen, Black Robe, King Skeleton!

The other figure was Purple Heavenly King Han Zishuang, clad completely in purple.

"Azura..."

Upon seeing Han Zishuang appear, Duan Xiaodao stared blankly at him, exclaiming in surprise.

But Han Zishuang stood beside King Skeleton, expression cold, without any response to Duan Xiaodao.

"Leng Mian, I have treated you well, and yet you betrayed me!"

Just as Duan Xiaodao felt disappointed, King Skeleton, shrouded in a black robe, lifted his head, those deep eyes beneath the robe glared at Duan Xiaodao with murderous intent.

"You have betrayed my trust! Failed Azura! Today, I demand your life in return!"

King Skeleton said no more, roaring violently, directly reaching out to grab at Duan Xiaodao's throat!

"Fourth brother, be careful!"

Qin Tian warned, wanting to help, but saw Duan Xiaodao had already reacted.

Duan Xiaodao reached out, intending to block King Skeleton's arm directly.

Unexpectedly, when their arms met, King Skeleton suddenly shifted direction, the grab turned into a palm strike!

Bang!

King Skeleton's palm hit Duan Xiaodao's shoulder!

Duan Xiaodao retreated tens of steps, continuously backpedaling, unable to stop himself, spitting out a mouthful of blood, face terrified!

"Boss, he... he... Qi Refining Peak!"

Injured, Duan Xiaodao turned to remind Qin Tian.

If not for his full effort in blocking earlier, the injured area could have been his chest, with consequences of severe injury if not death!

Qi Refining Peak!?

Upon hearing this, the faces of Qin Tian and Du Qiuniang changed suddenly.

They had just returned from the Plains Mountain, knowing a Qi Refining Peak immortality cultivator had the opportunity to transmit back to the Spiritual Domain!

But King Skeleton either failed to transmit or chose not to go back!

"My father said that on Earth, there are several Qi Refining Peak experts, some of whom had opportunities to return to the Spiritual Domain but chose not to go back."

Du Qiuniang, beside Qin Tian, whispered.

Qin Tian looked at King Skeleton's black robe and said, "Looks like King Skeleton is one of them."

No wonder!

No wonder the Skull Mercenary Team would form the Skull Mercenary Group!

Moreover, the founder at the time was White Heavenly King Zhao Baijing!

But this proud old fellow, after forming the Skull Mercenary Group, willingly relinquished the leader position!

Qin Tian was curious then, now he understood!

King Skeleton's strength was so formidable, Zhao Baijing, choosing to worship him as a master, using him as a backing, wasn't free to act; he could only step down for a worthy successor!

"Qi Refining Peak, interesting... Both of us at Qi Refining Middle Stage, just right to test King Skeleton's strength!"

Qin Tian spoke coolly to Du Qiuniang, "Qiuniang, in a while, I'll attack directly, you cover from the side."

"Okay." Du Qiuniang secretly gripped the silver needle in her hand, ready to strike at any time.

"Leng Mian, have you realized your mistake!?"

After injuring Duan Xiaodao, the hunter-like gaze of King Skeleton fixed on Duan Xiaodao: "I'll give you one last chance, if you know you're wrong, stand over here, I'll kill Qin Tian and the other one!"

"If you don't admit your mistake, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

Duan Xiaodao holding his wound, wiped the blood from his mouth, looked at King Skeleton, finally locked his eyes on Han Zishuang: "Azura, can't you see it yet? Your adoptive father is using you! His cultivation method is murder cultivation! He's a ruthless demon, would you help him kill the innocent, Azura?"

Duan Xiaodao spoke passionately, coughing several times, tears glistening in his eyes.

Now that King Skeleton is personally involved, a fight between the two sides, today, it's a matter of life and death!

And Duan Xiaodao and Han Zishuang, confronting on opposite sides, do they truly have to fight to the death, leaving only one?

Duan Xiaodao couldn't imagine and certainly wouldn't strike Han Zishuang.

He closed his eyes, then slowly opened them, speaking to King Skeleton: "King Skeleton, you've committed countless crimes, killing innocents, why drag Azura into it? She's innocent!"

"Hmm, so you're prepared to go all the way, betraying Skull!"

King Skeleton's voice suddenly deepened, saying to Han Zishuang beside him who hadn't spoken a word: "Azura, Leng Mian used to be under your command. He has betrayed you, why don't you come out to clean up the mess? Kill him with your own hands!"

Sss!

Upon hearing this, Duan Xiaodao retreated several steps, body shaking, face full of despair!

This King Skeleton, ruthless!

Actually wants Han Zishuang to face Duan Xiaodao directly!

Qin Tian gritted his teeth, wanting Duan Xiaodao to fight Han Zishuang, how could Duan Xiaodao bear to strike? He's bound to lose!

Moreover, Duan Xiaodao was already severely injured, how could he fight?

"Go quickly!"

Seeing Han Zishuang not acting, King Skeleton shouted sharply.

Han Zishuang still didn't speak, but she stepped forward.

Her purple clothes fluttering, hair dancing at the cheeks in the wind, those cold, beautiful eyes glaring at Duan Xiaodao, walking towards him.

In her hand appeared a dagger, her delicate hand gripped tightly!

"Azura, Azura... turn back!"

Duan Xiaodao couldn't believe his eyes, shaking his head, tears sprang from his eyes, pouring like rain.

"Master, if it continues like this, Fourth Brother will definitely be killed by her! I'll handle this woman and White Heavenly King, you focus on King Skeleton, once I deal with them, I'll come to help you!"

Seeing this, Du Qiuniang made a decisive choice, whispering to Qin Tian.

"Okay!"

Qin Tian nodded, reminding Du Qiuniang, "But, Qiuniang, don't be lethal against Han Zishuang."
