He watched the enchanting and beautiful red-clothed woman wave her sleeves and her contract beasts of Sacred Beast level appeared in front of her. Amongst them was a Fire Phoenix flapping its wings!
Hiss! That is an Ancient Sacred Beast!
What is the origin of this woman? A Sacred Beast contract beast was enough to shock most people, but there were so many of them!
“Roar!”
Almost in an instant, the roars of the beasts spread through the forest, and the powerful Sacred Beasts attacked the mercenaries. In a blink of an eye, several contract beasts jumped up and surrounded the red-clothed woman and the others.
Powerful coercion surrounded them and the Fire Phoenix stared at them while it flapped its wings above their heads. Without mentioning anything else, just the beast hovering above their heads was enough to make them kneel down with a slight tremor in their legs.
They were unable to resist the coercion of the ancient beasts. Under that pressure, they didn’t even have the strength to stand. Their two leaders trembled slightly, barely persevering, but in the end, they knelt down with a plop.
“Thinking of taking advantage of us? Ask them first!” Feng Jiu said casually and glanced at the mercenaries, then she instructed Fire Phoenix: “Don’t leave a single one!”
Once Feng Jiu had spoken, Luo Yu and the others didn’t make a move, but took a few steps back and stayed silent. Fire Phoenix was more than capable of dealing with those people, and it wasn’t even their turn to take action.
“No! Don’t, we… poof!”
The leader of the mercenaries was the first to recover from his horror. He tried to make Feng Jiu change her mind and spare their lives, but blood spurted out before he could finish speaking. Immediately afterwards, the roars of the contract beasts and the screams of the mercenaries rang out…
The smell of blood spread through the air, and the corpses were stacked one on top of another. They watched with cold eyes, their hearts unwavered. Those were not good people, and had they been stronger than them, they would be the fallen ones right now, and their fate would be much worse than theirs in the end. Therefore, as they watched Fire Phoenix kill the mercenaries, they didn’t even blink.
“There are a lot of mercenaries here, and our numbers are small. I think many people would have their eyes on us from the moment we walked in here. Tell you what! In addition to Fire Phoenix, I’ll take Old White and Cloud Devouring out for a walk as well.” Feng Jiu said, and handed Hao’er to Leng Shuang, then she stood up and walked towards the front.
“Don’t forget about the belongings on the bodies of those people.”
“Rest assured, Master. We won’t.” Luo Yu grinned.
Xuanyuan Mo Ze came to her side and said: “This was what you had to deal with by yourself last time?”
Feng Jiu chuckled lightly when she heard this: “Don’t you know me yet? I will kill who deserves to be killed, I’ve never been one to be soft-hearted. But I didn’t encounter these ignorant people last time! Also, it was more convenient for me to travel by myself.”
“Master, since the Immortal Ascension Ladder is only open once a year, won’t there be a lot of people coming here every year?” Du Fan asked.
“Some will come, some won’t come.” Feng Jiu said: “When most people get struck down by the coercion above, at the very least, their strength will be damaged. As for the more severe injuries, your life can’t be guaranteed. It’s not to be treated lightly. Therefore, if you are not very determined, you will not be able to reach the top.” Just as she was speaking, she saw a few figures descending from the sky…
