CHAPTER 609: CHAPTER 608: KILL THEM ALL

Sunset Three Laughs did not speak.

He looked at the woman in his arms who was left with barely a thread of life, his facial expression terrifyingly gloomy!

At this moment, Wuhua’s fingers were crushed, two of them broken, blood dripping down.

Wuhua’s breath was also extremely weak, on the verge of fainting at any moment.

Who is Sunset Three Laughs?

He could immediately think of what had just happened, and he could even figure out why that bit of medicine power was present in Wuhua’s heart meridian.

"Who did it?"

The three ice-cold words seemed to drift out of the Grim Reaper’s mouth.

The already chilling inn turned even colder in an instant, as if the air itself had frozen.

Silence, a death-like silence.

Everyone could feel the murderous aura emanating from Sunset Three Laughs’ words, and everyone knew that it likely boded ill.

Especially the Emperor Cultivator who had just grabbed Wuhua, his sweat bursting out, as if he had been drenched, streaming down.

Sunset Three Laughs is definitely a legend on this side of the Bitter Realm.

For over three hundred years, he insisted on killing a person at sunset every day.

Over the years, he’s even been besieged by countless forces, yet, he is still alive while those who wanted to kill him have turned into headless ghosts.

A man like this is not someone they, at the Emperor Level, could handle.

Silence, a death-like silence.

In the end, even heartbeats disappeared.

Inside the inn, the oppression was terrifying.

Sunset Three Laughs’ gaze slowly moved and finally settled on that Emperor master.

"I, I was wrong!!"

At this moment, what was left in that Emperor Level master’s heart was nothing but endless regret.

Had he known this would happen, known that Sunset Three Laughs could actually come back alive from the sandstorms of the Bitter Realm, he would not have hurried to press Wuhua to close the door.

What could he say now?

Fight?

That was simply a joke, a fight would be impossible to win, it would only make him a laughingstock.

"I was wrong, my mind was clouded by greed, I am not human, I, I am willing to compensate, willing to be a servant, willing to beg for forgiveness, I..."

That Emperor Level Cultivator crawled up from the ground and kept kowtowing in front of Sunset Three Laughs.

But before he could finish speaking, a cold light flashed in the corner of Sunset Three Laughs’ eyes.

He didn’t even move his hands!

From his back, the Treasure Sword released a beam of Sword Energy.

The Emperor Cultivator didn’t have time to react, didn’t even know what happened, as his head suddenly soared skyward.

"If apologies were useful, then why would we practice martial arts or learn the Way?!" Sunset Three Laughs’ voice was cold as he slowly bandaged Wuhua’s finger wounds.

Then, he stood up, not even glancing at the headless body on the ground, his gaze sweeping over the colorless faces of the surrounding Cultivators.

"Anyone else?"

The three faint words were filled with authority and murderous intent.

The temperature inside the inn dropped again.

Anyone else?

Did this mean killing one person was not enough?

The crowd was horrified, trembling all over.

In front of someone like Sunset Three Laughs, they dared not harbor even the slightest thought of resistance.

They knew that with their respective strengths, even if these hundred-plus people united in a combat formation, they would likely not be a match for a single blow from Sunset Three Laughs.

Didn’t they see how that Emperor was just beheaded by a mere glance?!

"I... it wasn’t, it wasn’t me, I just now, I was trying to protect her, the Elixir was mine, I was afraid the lady would die of pain, so I gave her the Elixir."

The cultivator who had given the medicine earlier turned pale, suddenly remembering that he had provided medicine, and immediately had thoughts of claiming credit. He rushed forward, wanting to show his merits.

But Sunset Three Laughs merely glanced at him.

"Kill!"

A soft chant, similarly, without any movement!

A stream of sword energy burst forth from the treasure sword on Sunset Three Laughs’ back, amid a whistling sound, the cultivator still wanted to run over and kowtow or something, but as he ran, his head flew up into the air, leaving only a headless body that continued to run on inertia to Sunset Three Laughs’ side and fell to its knees with a thud.

"You all must die!"

Sunset Three Laughs bellowed, his figure spinning as streaks of sword light shot out successively from his back.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Amidst the sky-breaking sounds, dozens of heads soared into the sky.

Don’t think that among these people there were Emperors, and even Half-Step Great Emperors, but in front of Sunset Three Laughs, they are all nothing but weeds.

No challenge at all, just like chopping vegetables.

In an instant, those dozen or so who were closing the gates, and those who were nearby, all had their heads fall to the ground!

They all must be killed!

For a moment, even Lin Hao was taken aback.

Sunset Three Laughs truly is a ruthless person.

Just now, outside in the sandstorm, Lin Hao was nearly blown away as he brought Sunset Three Laughs back to the doorstep; it was Sunset Three Laughs who lent a hand to pull Lin Hao back.

It could be said that Sunset Three Laughs had even saved Lin Hao’s life.

At that time, Lin Hao had not yet realized that Sunset Three Laughs was such a decisive and lethal person.

"We are innocent!"

"We didn’t do anything just now!"

Those cultivators who were far away and saw everyone being killed were trembling with fear, all of them knelt down to beg for mercy and cried their grievances.

"Wronged? Hahaha, are there any wronged people in this world? Even if you didn’t take action directly, but you stood by and watched without stopping, how is that different from an accomplice?"

Sunset Three Laughs rarely spoke more than a few words, but each word was as cold as an ice pick, inspiring fear in others.

"Did any of you stand up to stop it?"

Sunset Three Laughs’ piercing gaze swept over them.

Yet, not a single one dared to meet his gaze, some were even frightened into retreating backwards!

"Not one? Then die!"

Sunset Three Laughs did not waste words, his gaze surveying the room, and then, the sword on his back flew up on its own.

"Whoosh! Whoosh!"

With breaking sounds, the sword light flickered, and no one could evade the fierce sword energy.

Lin Hao stood to the side, watching clearly.

This sword energy was not ordinary.

Each wisp of sword energy contained a trace of the will of heaven and earth; each strand of sword energy took the shape of a rampaging beast.

This was a combat skill Sunset Three Laughs had understood from observing the bizarre scenes in the Bitter Realm’s raging sands!

What an impressive individual!

Lin Hao marveled inwardly.

He too had observed the bizarre demonstrations of combat skills in the Bitter Realm, mysterious and exceedingly difficult.

The most vividly he remembered was the maniac who used sword and saber to demonstrate a set of combat skills.

Yet although Lin Hao had gained some insight, it was difficult to reach the level displayed by Sunset Three Laughs.

The most challenging part was that Sunset Three Laughs used Primordial Power and Primordial Qi to activate combat skills of the Three Realms from Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism!

This could not simply be described as genius; he was truly an exceptional prodigy!

After all, even Lin Hao himself had only begun to understand the ancient scriptures of the Three Realms from his previous life and subsequently cultivated True Qi after obtaining the Divine Cauldron.

A strong man, indeed a strong man.

In the moment of Lin Hao’s astonishment, the inn’s lobby, aside from the three of them, was filled with headless corpses. Every strike was precise, severing the heads of scores of people, and all this took no more than the blink of an eye!
