Seeing that someone finally gave in, the people couldn't hide the excitement on their faces. Some people even praised the big man loudly.
"Brother Tan Hu is really good. He can get that guy talking."
Hearing their praise, the big man called Tan Hu got more excited. He widened his eyes, raised the bloody blade in his hand and said viciously, "Now you talk or you die!"
"OK, OK." The man replied hurriedly.
Before he said anything, another man who was kneeling on the ground suddenly stood up. He pointed at him and shouted angrily, "You are a traitor. I'll kill you if you say anything."
"Fuck off!" Just as that person finished speaking, another man from the crowd rushed out and kicked that man hard. With a "crack" sound, his bones were probably broken.
"Ah!" After a scream, the man lay on the ground, twitching continuously. Blood came out from his mouth and he was almost dead.
Everyone was shockd and frightened. This one was even more ruthless. They looked at him. He was a skinny man carrying a huge heavy sword on his back. It was strange for such a thin guy to carry such a heavy sword. Everyone was surprised to see that he had such frightening power.
"That’s Zang Yinan from the Famous Sword Sect. No wonder he's so powerful." Someone gave a cry of recognition. The Famous Sword Sect was one of the seven big martial sects. All the people there had extraordinary strength.
"Brother Zang is awesome." Tan Hu also praised him.
Zang Yinan laughed disdainfully, with his cold gazes glancing at the people who were still kneeling on the ground. Those men were scared and no one dared to resist. Their heads were drooping, as if they were being slaughtered. .
The person grabbed by Tan Hu was so scared that his entire body was trembling and his legs became flaccid. If it wasn't for Tan Hu, he would probably have collapsed.
"Now start talking." Zang Yinan glanced over with his cold eyes.
"The Evil Yin Pearl is down at the left side of the tunnel, in a small and remote area. Our Sect Leader himself was there to guard it…"
Before he had finished his words, someone shouted loudly: "You're talking nonsense. Some of us have entered the tunnel. Most of them died there. There is no Evil Yin Pearl at all."
"I … I'm telling you the truth. If you don't believe me, I can take you there."
"Hahaha, you guys go. Our Sect Leader has already advanced into the Peak of Perfection Stage. You are all going to die down there. Hahaha…" The person who was kicked by Zang Yinan was not completely dead. He gave a grim laugh. Zang Yinan wanted to give him another kick, but his dead tilted to one side and he died.
"Gui Sha is already at the Peak of Perfection Stage?" The people whispered to each other and then fell into a brief silence. Gui Sha was the Sect Leader of the Ghost Sect, but he had already been killed by Qin Hao.
Amongst these people, only a few had reached the Perfection Stage, not to mention the Peak of Perfection Stage. Furthermore, a few Perfection Stage cultivators had died in the tunnel, and the others were injured. If Gui Sha was really at the Peak of Perfection Stage, Qin Hao could kill everyone here by himself. These people came for the Evil Yin Pearl, and they had received the message that Gui Sha was not strong enough to pose a great threat. Now they knew that Gui sha was so strong but he had still been killed by someone else. They were terrified.
"Everybody, don't believe him. Is it easy to reach the Peak of Perfection Stage? He was just trying to scare us. " Someone broke the silence and the others agreed with him. How could they believe the words of a dying man?
"Our Sect Leader is really at the Peak of Perfection Stage. He had recently reached his new stage." The person being grabbed by Tan Hu said weakly. He splashed a bucket of cold water on those who had just got excited. They fell into silence again. Some people had given up in their hearts.
At the bottom of the well, Qin Hao heard their words. They were so scared when it came to the Peak of Perfection Stage. To Qin Hao, it was the Third Stage of Martial Cultivator. Fortunately, there were few people at such a high level, even less in the city. Otherwise, if he wanted to be king in the city, he couldn’t imagine how long it could take.
He was extremely glad. Thanks to the Yin Evil Pearl, otherwise he'd be dead by now. No wonder when Gui Sha looked at him, he seemed to be looking at a dead man.
"Hmph, the Peak of Perfection Stage. You are afraid of that devil. I’m not." An old Daoist walked out with a horsetail whisk in his hand and said to Tan Hu, "Let him lead the way. I will follow him."
This old Daoist is Ping Yang from the Shang Qing Temple. It was said that he had already reached the Perfection Stage. Of course, there's a big gap between him and the Peak of Perfection Stage Expert and he's certainly no match for the latter. But since he dared to go down, he had something to rely on.
"Wait, there's somebody in the well." With a loud shout, a figure appeared and looked at the well in the square. The other people also looked at it, thinking, "Could it be Gui Sha?"
Hearing Ping Yang’s words, Qin Hao was surprised. That must be another expert. There were so many experts today.
Qin Hao shouted curses in his heart. Knowing that he could no longer hide anymore, he jumped to get to the well mouth. If someone blocked the well mouth, he would never get out.
“Sou!” A figure jumped out of the well and landed beside it.
When they saw the person clearly, those people breathed a sigh of relief. It wasn't Gui Sha. It was a young man with ragged clothes, not much different from a beggar.
Those people did not know Qin Hao, but Ye Siyu and Shi Bingying were extremely shocked. Ye Siyu couldn’t believe that Qin Hao had been to the underground tunnel, and had come back alive. She was more and more confused. Who exactly was Qin Hao? He surprised her again and again by his incredible behavior. Ye Siyu felt that she’s going crazy.
"Who are you?" Daoist Ping Yang stared at Qin Hao and asked with a stern tone.
"Er, I am Qin Hao, and I am only passing by. I won't disturb you anymore." He wanted to leave. If these people knew he had the Evil Yin Pearl, they would kill him.
"Stop!" Someone blocked his way. “You think you can leave? You really don't take us seriously. Who are you? Are you from the Ghost sect?"
Qin Hao raised his head and stared angrily at the people blocking his way, "Who am I? It’s none of your business. Go to hell!" Although he was afraid of the experts here, it did not mean that he wanted to be a coward. No one could block his way and interrogate him like a prisoner. Moreover, his strength had just increased, so even if he couldn't beat them, he was confident that he could run away.
"He’s so arrogant! He must be from the Ghost sect. Everybody, take him down!" Someone shouted, and wanted to beat him. They were not afraid of a young man.
"He's not from our Ghost sect, but …" The person being grabbed by Tan Hu said in horror, with his eyes staring at the knife on Qin Hao's back, "That, that is our Sect Leader's Seven Evil Machete. Why, why he has it?"
Everyone was shocked. They all looked at the knife on Qin Hao's back. It was an unusual knife. If you were to sense it seriously, you would feel the chill of the blade.
Qin Hao never thought that the knife on his back would attract so much attention.
"Brat, why do you have Gui Sha's knife?" someone asked loudly.
"Gui Sha? The Sect Leader of the Ghost sect? I’ve killed him. " Qin Hao said calmly. His tone was flat, but it stirred a storm in everyone's heart. Their eyes were filled with fear. Those who were blocking his way retreated involuntarily.
Gui sha was at the Peak of Perfection Stage. If Qin Hao had killed such an expert, he could kill them as easily as he pinched a few ants. How ridiculous it was to block his way and take him down!
Qin Hao was very satisfied. He wanted to scare these people. Besides, what he said was true. Gui Sha was killed by him.
"Hmph, a Beginning Stage Cultivator dares to hold such language." Daoist Ping Yang said with scorn and walked over to Qin Hao. Obviously, he did not believe that he could kill Gui Sha. Maybe he was just lucky. He glared at Qin Hao and bellowed as if he was interrogating a prisoner: "How did you get the Seven Evil Machete? Where is the Evil Yin Pearl?" Since Gui Sha was guarding the Evil Yin Pearl and now Qin Hao had Gui Sha’s knife, then the Evil Yin Pearl could also be in Qin Hao's hands. Even if he couldn’t get the Evil Yin Pearl, the Seven Evil Machete still made him envious. It was a famous treasure in the world. They had come here to steal something, so there was no reason for them to let him go.
Qin Hao didn’t like this old man. With his Spirit Sense, he could clearly feel the greed in the old man's eyes. He sneered, "What are you talking about? The Evil Yin Pearl? I didn't see it. If you want this knife, you can take it." He took the knife out from his back and handed it over.
Everybody, as well as Pingyang, was stunned, His original plan was to stand out and hurl at him, then forcibly describe him as having something to do with the Ghost Sect, so he would be able to snatch them away.
Who would have thought that he didn’t have to say anything and Qin Hao would hand it over to him? Now he didn’t know whether he should accept it.
If he accepted it, they would think that he was greedy and he would lose face. If he refused, he would not have a second chance to have it.
"What? You don't want it?" Qin Hao looked at Ping Yang and smiled strangely.
After all, Daoist Ping Yang was an experienced old man. He quickly reacted and snorted: "I don’t need a young man’s weapon, but I’d like to see if your knife is really the Seven Evil Machete." He strode up to Qin Hao. This was called shameless. Qin Hao sighed. However, was it easy to snatch his things?
Just as Daoist Ping Yang's hand grabbed onto the Seven Evil Machete in Qin Hao's hand, a ball of black Qi rushed towards the old Daoist like a gale before he could even take it out.
"Brat, how dare you!" Daoist Ping Yang shouted in shock. His palm struck out like a gust of wind, striking towards the black Qi with the force of thunder.
