103: Chapter 103 The Man Hiding Underground

When Xiao Yan said that he could find the Heavenly Flame, these barbarians were clearly much more polite and allowed Xiao Yan to enter the barrier.

"Little guy, you had better be telling the truth, otherwise I, Shatu, will not let you off lightly!" Shatu continued to glare fiercely at Xiao Yan, issuing a threat.

With a face like a pug, he stared at Xiao Yan with dog eyes, making Xiao Yan unable to help but turn his head away; it was too ugly, truly an eyesore.

"Before I came to the Northern Continent, I heard that your barbarian tribes were in the midst of war?" Xiao Yan curiously asked Jia Lan, who was beside him. Although the order in the few tribes he had passed earlier was not exactly stable, it was still passable, not like the state of civil strife that Lion Heaven had described.

"In our barbarian tribes, while this is not a secret, knowing too much as an outsider is not a good thing for you, so it is better not to inquire." Jia Lan shook her head and said. This was an internal matter belonging to the Shati Tribe, so naturally, she would not inform Xiao Yan.

Xiao Yan nodded, not feeling surprised. He cast his gaze toward the large canyon filled with blood before him and nodded slightly.

After this probing, apart from that dog-headed person named Shatu, the others were quite acceptable. Since his goal had been achieved, Xiao Yan no longer had any intention of continuing to hide.

"Little human guy, hurry up and show us what you are capable of! If you are too late, I will serve you as a side dish with my wine today, hahaha!" Shatu's voice came again.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan turned his head.

Why are there people who like to court death so much?

"What are you looking at..." Shatu's words were only half spoken, but he suddenly looked as if his throat had been grabbed, his dog eyes widening as he could not make a sound.

The reason was simple: a heaven-reaching will erupted from the body of the "little guy" he had spoken of, instantly covering this expanse of heaven and earth. Under this terrifying will, the very air between heaven and earth began to hum!

Feeling this immense aura, the expressions of Jia Lan and the people around her changed drastically, and they looked at the young man beside them in horror.

This young man wearing purple-gold robes no longer had his previous approachable aura; he looked coldly at everyone present, as if... he were looking at ants!

What kind of look is this!

Shatu looked at the cold-eyed Xiao Yan. Seemingly angered by his own recent cowardice, his heart instantly became violent. Just as he wanted to activate his Beast Soul, a brilliant green arc of light suddenly appeared before his eyes!

Before he could react, Shatu's head was instantly severed. On the head that remained briefly in the air, a pair of dog eyes looked at Xiao Yan in disbelief.

"Your face is truly disgusting enough." Xiao Yan's cold voice rang in everyone's ears.

But it was not over yet. Xiao Yan reached out and grabbed at Shatu's body from a distance, and a Soul body appeared before everyone's eyes; it was none other than the Shatu from before.

Even if the body of a Dou Zun expert is destroyed, their Soul can still exist between heaven and earth. However, even if it could remain, under Xiao Yan's watchful eyes, it would absolutely have nowhere to hide.

Jia Lan, who was nearby, felt this powerful pressure. Her skin, which was already fair, instantly turned pale, becoming devoid of any color.

This kind of pressure is definitely not something that can be achieved at the Dou Zun Realm! Could it be...

"This... Lord, although Shatu has been offensive in his words, he is actually a kind-hearted person at heart. I hope you can show mercy, Lord!" Jia Lan looked at Shatu, who was struggling and twisting in Xiao Yan's hand, and hurriedly spoke up.

"Hmph! If you had not stopped this dog earlier, your lives would have been gone long ago. He almost killed you, and now you are still pleading for him?" Xiao Yan sneered and spoke to Jia Lan.

This woman was clearly lying; Shatu's murderous intent earlier could not be faked.

Seeing this, Jia Lan's expression was one of helplessness. Who could have thought that the person before her was actually a legendary Dou Sheng? Why would you, an incomparably noble Dou Sheng, need to hide your strength to toy with us...

"Lord, since Shatu offended you first, our Shati Tribe is willing to accept punishment. We only hope that you will spare Shatu's life." Jia Lan said bitterly.

Jia Lan had the heart to kill Shatu, but the Shati Tribe was currently in a state of chaos. If they lost a Dou Zun expert at this time, the situation would be even harder to maintain. Therefore, even though she felt immense disgust for Shatu at this moment, she had to plead for him.

"I think it would be better this way. Since you, Lord, have come for the Spirit Fire, our Shati Tribe will withdraw from the search and leave it to you. If you obtain the Spirit Fire, it will be yours." Jia Lan promised. Although the Spirit Fire was precious, weighing the pros and cons, a Dou Zun was more important.

But just at this moment, several massive Demonic Beast figures swept over from the distance and stopped one hundred meters behind Xiao Yan.

"This Lord, we are also willing to yield the Spirit Fire to you; there is no need to listen to that little wench!" The lead Demonic Beast, which resembled a pterosaur, said.

Subsequently, these Demonic Beasts shrank their figures and transformed into human forms.

"You stinking bug, you are courting death!" Jia Lan's expression changed upon hearing this, and she shouted at the Demonic Beast that had transformed into human form.

"Hahaha, even if you search for another hundred years, you won't find the Spirit Fire. Are you even qualified to use this to trade with this noble Lord? You are truly shameless to the extreme!" The Demonic Beast, who had transformed into a thin man, cursed at Jia Lan.

Xiao Yan shook his head. He watched as even the most pure and beautiful woman, once fallen into the swamp of power and interests, would continue to degenerate.

Getting something for nothing is not rare, but wanting to get something for nothing from him was simply naive.

If I give it to you, you must be grateful; if I do not give it, you cannot snatch it!

Ignoring the constantly pleading Shatu, Xiao Yan slammed his hand shut. A shrill scream rang out, and Shatu's Soul instantly burst apart.

Jia Lan was startled to see this, and then revealed an expression of helplessness. If she had not brought Shatu this time, she might have been able to befriend this Lord, but now, she was clearly detested.

The thin man saw this and revealed an excited expression on his face. This Shatu had killed quite a few of his subordinate Demonic Beasts in the past. Now that he saw Xiao Yan kill him so easily, he was undoubtedly extremely happy.

At the same time, the thin man looked at the young man in purple-gold robes before him with even more awe. However, along with that awe, a strange glint emerged, as if he were thinking of some idea.

Xiao Yan did not pay much attention to this. From the moment Shatu had charged at him earlier, he had sensed the murderous intent coming from Shatu. If Jia Lan had not stopped him, at least half of these barbarian people would have died right there and then.

Therefore, killing Shatu was Xiao Yan's decision from the start.

Slowly closing his eyes, his powerful Soul Power transmitted to every corner within this barrier with visible fluctuations, whether in the sky or underground.

Seeing that Xiao Yan had started searching for the Spirit Fire, the crowd did not dare to make a sound, especially the people of the Shati Tribe, who all wore expressions of having survived a disaster.

Many people looked at each other, thinking that upon returning this time, they must strictly discipline their subordinates and not be rude to strangers upon seeing them.

This was no joke; they were truly terrified!

Yet, in just a short dozen seconds, Xiao Yan suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the ground in the distance.

The crowd looked in the direction of Xiao Yan's gaze, but discovered nothing.

Xiao Yan slowly raised his palm, and a colorful fireball appeared. The surrounding temperature instantly soared, and the space was distorted by the suddenly appearing fireball.

The fireball faced the direction of that ground and suddenly shot out a four-colored beam of light, which struck that ground, and that ground was instantly burned into nothingness!

"Lord! Lord, spare my life, I will come out now!"

A terrified voice suddenly came out.

Hearing this, not only were the surrounding barbarians and Demonic Beasts stunned, but even Xiao Yan was stunned.
