"Presumptuous!"
"You're looking for death!"
"Xin'er!!"
The Barbarian Demon Sect's elders were shocked and enraged, or filled with uncontrollable anger and grief, upon hearing the news of Hou Xin's death from Mu Jinyu's mouth.
The one who shouted "Xin'er" was none other than Hou Xin's master, the second-ranked Supreme Elder of the Barbarian Demon Sect.
After uttering a cry of deep sorrow, his bloodshot eyes fixed on Mu Jinyu, and he immediately utilized his movement technique to attack Mu Jinyu, "You dare, boy!"
He remembered Mu Jinyu's words; since Hou Xin had said his sect would avenge him, he must have hoped his master would avenge him.
Now, with Mu Jinyu, the killer of his disciple, right before him, there was no way he would let him go!
"Clang!"
"Bang!!"
The Second Elder, ranked second among the Supreme Elders of the Barbarian Demon Sect, was indeed powerful, possessing the strength of the Fifth Layer of the Fanxu Realm. In his eyes, Mu Jinyu was merely in the Third Layer of the Fanxu Realm. Despite unknown means through some Spiritual Treasure to break the Mountain Protection Array, he wasn't worth considering in front of him!
However, as he swung his fist, ready to kill Mu Jinyu with a slap, Mu Jinyu fiercely raised his hand to catch the Second Elder's fist.
And then, without any flourish, Mu Jinyu punched straight into the Second Elder's stomach, sending him flying like a cannonball.
"Boom!"
The Second Elder crashed directly into the mountain wall, imprinting a huge human-shaped dent.
The Barbarian Demon Sect's elders were shocked to witness this.
The Second Elder, possessing the strength of the Fifth Layer of the Fanxu Realm and a prominent figure in the Barbarian Demon Sect, couldn't withstand a single punch from Mu Jinyu?
Though there may have been a chance the Second Elder underestimated him, it undoubtedly showed how terrifying Mu Jinyu was!
A two-minor-realm leap in combat capability—no wonder Hou Xin perished, no wonder he dared come to provoke the Barbarian Demon Sect!
With a "thud," the Second Elder jumped out of the deeply embedded mountain wall, his eyes glaring at Mu Jinyu as if spewing fire.
Then, he roared and unleashed his terrifying Demon Yuan, charging towards Mu Jinyu!
Witnessing this, the Barbarian Demon Sect's Great Elder and others shouted, "Attack together!"
Subsequently, they all charged forward, surrounding Mu Jinyu.
The Barbarian Demon Sect is not a sect driven by bloodlust like a demon path sect, nor is it righteous, and doesn't mind if using numbers damages the sect's image!
In their view, Mu Jinyu dared to provoke them by coming to the Barbarian Demon Sect. If he wasn't stopped and managed to defeat the Second Elder, it would bring even more disgrace to the Barbarian Demon Sect!
"Ha!!"
The Barbarian Demon Sect's elders utilized their divine skills and brandished their Life-bond Spiritual Treasures to attack Mu Jinyu, while the Great Elder of the Peak Fifth Layer of the Fanxu Realm unleashed his Domain!
From the strengths of the Barbarian Demon Sect's Great Elder and Second Elder, it's evident their comprehensive strength exceeds that of the Blood Sword Sect.
The Great Elder of the Blood Sword Sect, Zhou Yun, only possesses strength of the Fourth Layer of the Fanxu Realm, his domain not yet comprehended, only barely showcasing his Domain's power through "Blood Refining the Sky!"
In contrast, the Great Elder and Second Elder of the Barbarian Demon Sect both possess the strength of the Fifth Layer of the Fanxu Realm, with the Great Elder having comprehended his Domain.
If ranked on the National Guard List of Yan Kingdom, this Great Elder would certainly be in the top five!
However, Mu Jinyu defeated Yan Chengyun; this Barbarian Demon Sect's Great Elder possesses the same Peak Fifth Layer in the Fanxu Realm as Yan Chengyun, whose Domain far surpasses his, thus he wouldn't care about him!
"Ah!"
Unwilling to battle them one by one, when their divine skills and spiritual treasures approached before him, Mu Jinyu unleashed his Crimson Domain in an instant!
The crimson domain resembled flames, despite its viscosity like a blood pool, causing those within it from the Barbarian Demon Sect to appear terror-stricken, unable to move!
"What is... this domain?"
"My god, he's only at the Peak Third Layer of the Fanxu Realm; how has he comprehended a Domain?"
"No wonder Hou Xin perished by his hand, and he had the courage to provoke our Barbarian Demon Sect!"
The Great Elder perceives this even deeper because he's one who has comprehended a Domain, unlike them.
As Mu Jinyu's Domain instantly enveloped his own, he knew he was absolutely no match for Mu Jinyu.
Even though his cultivation was two minor realms higher than Mu Jinyu!
"Why do I feel like the Qi-Blood within me is about to burn?"
At this moment, attempting to escape from Mu Jinyu's domain, the elder sensed something amiss and exclaimed fearfully.
The Great Elder sighed, "This is a special domain, everyone should cease their attacks!"
He was a wise man, understanding that Mu Jinyu had gained control over their lives and deaths at that moment.
If he wished to kill them, he could do so easily.
But since he hadn't, clearly, he wasn't there to destroy their Barbarian Demon Sect.
Further resistance was futile; better to stop and see what Mu Jinyu had to say.
Afterwards, the Great Elder was the first to retract his Domain and his Life-bond Magic Treasure.
Witnessing the Great Elder leading the surrender, the rest looked at each other before reluctantly ceasing their actions.
Mu Jinyu, seeing this, didn't withdraw his Bloody Domain, but stood calmly in the air, speaking indifferently, "It seems the Barbarian Demon Sect amounts to this. I will not kill you; may you refrain from actions you will regret in the future."
With that, Mu Jinyu retracted the Crimson Domain and headed towards the Flying Shuttle in the distance without looking back!
Along the way, no one from the Barbarian Demon Sect dared to make a move against Mu Jinyu!
Soon, Mu Jinyu boarded the Flying Shuttle and steered it towards the nearby Wei Kingdom!
The Barbarian Demon Sect watched him leave, their expressions turning incredibly sour, as though they had consumed something foul.
One couldn't help but ask, "Great Elder, why did we stop just now? What if his domain... you also have a domain, and you're at the Peak Fifth Layer of the Fanxu Realm; why should we fear him!"
"Yes, even if it means some deaths, we'd definitely catch him! If today's incident spreads, how will our Barbarian Demon Sect maintain itself in Jiang Country?"
The Great Elder sighed deeply, saying, "Didn't you notice his domain overlapped mine upon its release?"
"Huh?!"
Upon hearing this, faces changed dramatically, and one exclaimed, "Could you mean..."
"Exactly." The Great Elder sighed, "His domain is very special, high-ranked. Generally, when opposing domains clash, it's mutually repulsive, neither yielding, but he could instantly envelop mine, leaving me no chance to flee, meaning, at that moment, if he wished, we'd all die inside!"
Hearing this from the Great Elder, everyone's expressions worsened further, looking at the direction Mu Jinyu departed, their eyes filled with both concern and dread!
The Great Elder continued, "Enough. Hou Xin's death, though regrettable, is self-inflicted fault; we shall not seek revenge henceforth!"
He was wise, realizing that Hou Xin's death surely stemmed from him provoking Mu Jinyu, leading to the fatal calamity.
Otherwise, if Mu Jinyu was a wanton killer, displeased by Hou Xin and killed him, upon entering the Barbarian Demon Sect today, how could it be he left without killing even one?
Surely, clearing the Barbarian Demon Sect in entirety!
Therefore, Hou Xin's death was decided, not interfered further.
