Chapter 8
"Look, kid, we have no problems. It was Jiang's own fault for being weak, letting himself die. Walk away now, and we won't kill you where you stand," the cloaked man stated, his voice steady but laced with menace. He and the other two men shifted into attacking stances, their eyes narrowing on Tian Ping.
"PLEASE DON'T LEAVE! IF YOU HELP ME RETURN TO ZHOU CITY, I'LL REWARD YOU GENEROUSLY!" the blue-haired girl blurted out, her voice trembling with panic, afraid that Tian Ping might abandon her to face the danger alone.
Tian Ping's eyes flicked toward her briefly, and he let out a soft chuckle. "Will you calm down? You’re too loud." He gave her a sideways glance, his tone arrogant yet strangely reassuring. "If I intended to leave, I wouldn’t have lifted a finger in the first place."
He rested the sword on his shoulder with a nonchalant confidence, and then his eyes turned cold as he faced the men in black. "Alright," he said, his voice dropping to a menacing calm. "Let’s get started and stop all this unnecessary talking."
With a swift dash, Tian Ping leaped toward the cloaked men, his movements fluid yet precise. He felt the thrill of the fight rushing through his veins, the anticipation of testing his newfound strength against worthy foes.
As he moved, his thoughts raced, sizing up his opponents. "These guys might have stronger cultivations, but they lack technique," he thought. "They’re nervous—they can barely hide their hesitation. That gives me the upper hand."
"Do you think you can intimidate me with weak threats?" Tian Ping sneered, a hint of a smile playing on his lips.
"DAMN IT, WAIT—!" one of the cloaked men shouted, eyes wide with shock as Tian Ping's sword came swinging in a wide arc, striking the blade of his opponent with an impact that shook the air around them.
