These Martial Artists were all experts of the Soul Gathering Realm, and there were dozens of them. The power they unleashed together was utterly overwhelming.

Dozens of weapons blotted out the sky, completely engulfing Lin Hao.

A powerful gale raged, sending Lin Hao’s hair flying and his clothes whipping loudly in the wind.

On the ground, not a single speck of dust could be seen; it had all been obliterated by the gale!

And the moment the words left Lin Hao’s mouth, dozens of weapons were already descending upon his head.

At this moment, Lin Hao, who had been completely still, slightly lifted his right foot.

It was indeed just a slight lift, as the heel of his right foot never even left the ground.

Then, Lin Hao placed his slightly raised right foot back on the ground.

A shocking scene unfolded.

BOOM!

An almost imperceptible wave of air surged from the ground.

But its consequences were staggering.

The dozens of weapons that were already above Lin Hao’s head suddenly disintegrated into fine powder, dissipating into the air!

A mere lift and drop of his foot—a seemingly insignificant action—had produced such an outcome. Everyone stood frozen, as if struck by a Body Fixing Skill.

However, this was only the beginning, for Lin Hao lifted his foot again.

"I’ll see you on your way." As he lifted his foot, Lin Hao uttered five words.

This time, when Lin Hao’s right foot came down, the several Martial Artists closest to him turned to ash without even a grunt!

The color drained from everyone’s faces.

It was too shocking, too bizarre.

"Retreat! Get off the Yellow Spring Road!" Marquis Mo shrieked, then took the lead, flying backward in retreat.

Having witnessed Lin Hao’s methods, Marquis Mo finally understood why Lin Hao dared to come alone.

’There’s something strange about this road!’

’Without a doubt, this must be a technique left behind by the master of the mansion ahead.’

But what Marquis Mo couldn’t fathom was why Lin Hao was able to use these methods.

The current situation left Marquis Mo no time to think.

Marquis Mo was fast, but the others reacted just as quickly.

Having reached the Soul Gathering Realm, these Martial Artists were not inexperienced. They knew what was happening; to stay here was to wait for death.

Dozens of people flew back in retreat. The scene was quite spectacular.

Lin Hao, however, watched coldly, making no move to stop them.

His opponents used their fastest Body Techniques to flee the Yellow Spring Road, yet even as they retreated, they didn’t forget to attack.

They pulled out more weapons from their storage rings and hurled them at Lin Hao. Some threw several at once, or even dozens.

To survive, they had to slow Lin Hao down.

As for Lin Hao, he paid no mind to the incoming weapons, simply striding forward step by step.

A weapon thrown by a Soul Gathering Realm Martial Artist was terrifyingly powerful. It could shatter not just a person but even a small mountain peak. Yet, these weapons couldn’t even get close to Lin Hao.

Lin Hao didn’t seem to make any move; he just walked. The weapons simply exploded into dust before they could reach him!

Lin Hao alone was forcing dozens of opponents to flee for their lives. If anyone were to witness this scene, they would be shocked beyond belief.

As it happened, someone was witnessing this very scene.

Inside the Celestial Monarch’s Mansion, Yunxi was sitting on the back of the tortoise egg, which hovered in mid-air. Standing beside the tortoise egg was Chu Yanwu.

At this moment, they were staring blankly at everything happening outside the mansion.

"This... this... This is incredible!" Chu Yanwu’s eyes were filled with disbelief.

He had grown up in this mansion, and all his ancestral records were perfectly preserved, but he never knew why the road outside was called the Yellow Spring Road.

Now, seeing Lin Hao’s actions, he finally understood.

What Chu Yanwu didn’t understand, however, was how Lin Hao knew everything about this mansion like the back of his hand.

Unlike him, Yunxi was completely dumbstruck.

To Yunxi, the scene unfolding outside was like something out of a myth.

Dozens of Soul Gathering Realm Martial Artists, including five City Lord Level experts, were fleeing for their lives from a single man, Lin Hao!

If she told anyone, no one would believe it, but it was happening right before her very eyes.

’It seems I don’t have long to live.’

A sense of despair rose in Yunxi’s heart.

In fact, from the moment Lin Hao had started acting within the mansion without hiding anything from her, Yunxi had known her fate.

Lin Hao had revealed so many secrets to her without reservation; it was clear he had no intention of giving her a chance to leak them.

And there was only one type of person who couldn’t leak secrets—a dead one!

Originally, Yunxi didn’t think Lin Hao would have the guts to act this way within the Mo Yun Kingdom’s territory. But now, seeing what he was doing, she realized that even in the Mo Yun Kingdom, Lin Hao’s methods were terrifying.

’Heaven knows how many more tricks Lin Hao has up his sleeve.’

"Relax. In a sense, you’re not that kid’s enemy, so he won’t kill you. But you probably can’t escape the fate of being a handmaiden for life." The tortoise egg’s voice suddenly sounded in Yunxi’s ear.

Yunxi froze, her expression changing drastically.

’How could this big, ugly tortoise know what I’m thinking?’

"It’s because you have the Royal Beast Tamer Physique," the tortoise egg spoke again.

"You can see every thought in my mind?!" Yunxi shuddered, utterly horrified.

"This divine tortoise is only interested in what I want to understand; I’m not interested in the rest. And here, the only one I want to understand is Lin Hao, so it would be wise for you to think about him less. Also, a word of advice: being Lin Hao’s handmaiden is actually a pretty good deal."

’This big, ugly tortoise must have an astonishing origin. If even it is willing to be Lin Hao’s mount, then it’s no big deal for me to be his handmaiden.’

’Since Lin Hao won’t kill me, I don’t believe he won’t let me go once we reach the capital.’

’As for Lin Hao’s secrets, if it comes to that, I can just swear a Blood Oath.’

With this thought, Yunxi felt a wave of relief. After taking a few deep breaths, she replied, "Thank you for the reminder."

The tortoise egg didn’t answer her. After a moment, it grumbled, "You’re his mount. Your whole family are his mounts."

Hearing the tortoise egg’s disgruntled voice, Yunxi’s mood suddenly improved.

But one look at the events unfolding outside the mansion, and her good mood vanished.

Outside the mansion, Lin Hao strolled leisurely from the Yellow Spring Road onto Yama Street.

The dozens of Martial Artists had stopped on Yama Street, waiting for him.

Seeing this, Lin Hao didn’t pause in the slightest and continued to stride forward.

"Fall back, keep falling back! This is Yama Street!" Mo Yantian’s voice rang out.

Strange things had just happened on the Yellow Spring Road; he didn’t dare take a gamble on Yama Street either.

As soon as Mo Yantian spoke, the Martial Artists who had been preparing to attack moved again, retreating explosively.

If they were too slow, their fate would likely be annihilation into dust.

They retreated, and Lin Hao advanced.

Before long, all the Martial Artists had fled Yama Street, while Lin Hao came to a stop before the two words: "Yama Street."

"Lin Hao, if you have any guts, come out here!" Marquis Mo, surrounded by dozens of his Martial Artists, yelled from a distance.

Lin Hao shrugged and actually took a step forward, leaving Yama Street.

And with that one step, Lin Hao covered a distance of several meters.

The moment Lin Hao took that step, figures flickered...
