Demon Domain Borderline.
A colossal Flying Tamed Beast slowly descended, kicking up a cloud of dust.
The Beast Tamer responsible for the transport stood on the beast's back, his voice stern and cold:
"Remember, once you enter the Demon Domain, you are responsible for your own life and death! I will be back here in ten days sharp to pick you up."
His sharp gaze swept over the crowd, pausing for a moment on the lone Gu Xing.
"Anyone who misses the time can wait here to be fed to the Demonic Race."
A commotion stirred through the crowd.
Gu Xing glanced around. Besides the forces from the Three Major Human Factions, there were also many Other Races entering the Demon Domain.
Just then, a man from the Tiger Race stealthily approached Gu Xing.
"Human, want to come with us? We can guarantee your safety."
Whispers immediately broke out from the surrounding crowd.
"This newbie is done for. He's been targeted by Hu Li!"
"But this newbie doesn't have any Star Stones on him. Why would Hu Li want him?"
"Idiot! No Star Stones, but he can be used as bait!"
"Serves him right! A Transcendent 1st Order coming to the Demon Domain is just asking for death! Being bait can be considered a contribution!"
Amidst the crowd's discussion, Gu Xing slowly turned his head to look at Hu Li, who was approaching him.
Their words served as a reminder.
This was the Demon Domain. There were no laws, no supervision; strength was the only thing that mattered.
Gu Xing summoned his two Tamed Beasts.
As for strength…
His two current Tamed Beasts were the definition of strength!
"Human, are you deaf? I'm talking to you!"
Gu Xing didn't answer, merely raising an eyebrow and looking at him indifferently.
However, this disdainful attitude completely enraged Hu Li.
"Damn it, I tried to be nice and you spat in my face! Today, whether you want to or not, you're coming with me!"
As he spoke, Hu Li lunged forward, reaching for Gu Xing's shoulder.
But before his hand could even touch Gu Xing's shoulder…
Swish!
A flash of Crimson Sword Light shot past.
Thud.
A severed arm hit the ground.
Hu Li froze, looking down at his empty arm as blood gushed from the stump.
"Ahhhh—!"
The intense pain finally snapped him back to his senses, his eyes instantly turning bloodshot.
A mere Transcendent 1st Order human dared to attack him?!
He roared ferociously, turning to his teammates behind him and bellowing:
"Kill him for me!"
"You're courting death! How dare you harm Brother Hu!"
Five Tiger Race Warriors charged forward, roaring with murderous intent.
However, they had no idea what kind of monster they were facing…
A princess of the Angel Race with the bloodline of a Seraphim and all attributes at 1400 points!
Although these Tiger Race members were between Transcendent 7th and 8th Order, none of them had a single attribute that broke a thousand.
For Liuli, this was a matter of a single, casual sword strike.
Swish—
The Crimson Sword Light flashed once more.
Thud, thud, thud…
Five thick tiger arms fell to the ground in unison, spraying blood everywhere.
The entire area fell deathly silent.
The onlookers' eyes widened, their faces filled with horror.
"Is he really Transcendent 1st Order? Hu Li's team should be in the top ten among our group, right? They were defeated in an instant?"
"Look how relaxed that Angel is. She probably didn't even use half her strength…"
"No wonder he dared to come to the Demon Domain alone!"
Amidst the gasps of the crowd, the faces of the few people who had mocked Gu Xing on the Flying Tamed Beast turned deathly pale.
They had just reached Transcendent 5th Order and couldn't even compare to the weakest member of Hu Li's team, let alone fight that terrifying Tamed Beast that had crushed them.
Gulp—
The few of them swallowed hard, quietly shifting their feet to escape.
However, just as they took their first step—
Boom!
A Thorn Wall erupted from the ground, instantly sealing off all escape routes.
"Damn it!"
The group hurriedly summoned their Tamed Beasts, frantically blasting the thorn wall with all sorts of elemental attacks.
However, in terms of Spirit Attribute alone, Wei La was even more terrifying than Liuli!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Their attacks landed on the thorns, failing to cause even the slightest ripple.
At the same time, Wei La elegantly rose into the air, a verdant Divine Ring appearing behind her.
She gently raised her hand, and four Thorn Walls shot up from the ground, trapping every human and Other Race member present.
"W-What is the meaning of this?"
"Does he plan to attack all of us? There are hundreds of us!"
Amidst the crowd's panicked chatter, Gu Xing slowly began to speak:
"Everyone, I have two announcements."
"First, everyone is to hand over all the Star Stones you are carrying. Yes, this is a robbery."
"Second, people from the Longxia Kingdom are an exception. You may leave now."
Hearing this, Wei La immediately opened an exit in the Thorn Wall.
The Beast Tamers from the Longxia Kingdom, as if granted amnesty, cast grateful glances at Gu Xing and quickly evacuated the area.
But the few from Longxia Kingdom who had mocked Gu Xing earlier were now mixed in with the crowd, trying to slip away…
Swish!
Several Vines suddenly shot out and wrapped around them, binding them tightly.
"When I said people from the Longxia Kingdom, I wasn't including you few."
The group's faces changed drastically, cold sweat beading on their foreheads:
"S-Sorry! We shouldn't have run our mouths! We really know we were wrong!"
"Please, let us go!"
They begged desperately for mercy, yet they clutched the Star Stone Bags at their waists tightly…
To a Beast Tamer, Star Stones were their lifeline.
"Heh."
Gu Xing sneered, and Liuli's Sword Light had already flashed.
"Ahhhh—!"
Several left arms fell to the ground.
"Not handing them over?" Gu Xing narrowed his eyes. "Next time, it's your right hands."
Shaking from the pain, the men no longer dared to try any tricks and tremblingly took out all their Star Stones.
Only then did Gu Xing turn to the others with satisfaction:
"What about the rest of you? Make your choice."
The faces of everyone present turned ashen, but under the watchful gaze of the two Tamed Beasts hovering in the sky, they ultimately handed over all their Star Stones with trembling hands.
"Very good."
Wei La retracted the Thorn Wall, and the crowd, as if granted amnesty, scattered and fled without looking back.
As for those members of the Tiger Race…
A cold smile played on Gu Xing's lips.
Their lives and their Star Stones—he would take them all!
As for whether the people he let go would seek revenge?
He wasn't the least bit worried.
Wei La possessed the Malice Perception Ability. Not a single one of those with ill intentions could escape!
Sure enough, a moment later—
Rustle, rustle, rustle…
Several Vines returned, dragging a dozen or so Corpses. These were the ones who had fled and intended to retaliate.
Seeing this, Gu Xing nodded in satisfaction.
He was no saint!
For those who wanted revenge, he would never leave a hidden danger for himself.
As for being cruel…
In the Demon Domain, kindness was stupidity!
When he first arrived, Wei La had already warned him that a large portion of the people present bore him malice.
Since that was the case…
He would nip it all in the bud!
As for the Star Stones?
Since he had already made his move, he might as well rob them clean!
After all, he needed this stuff to improve his two talents and his physical constitution.
He was in dire need of them right now!
These people had walked right into his line of fire!
"Well done."
Gu Xing ruffled Wei La's head, and she happily squinted her eyes.
Afterward, Wei La controlled the Vines to wrap up the Corpses, and the group headed deeper into the Demon Domain.
After all…
If you want to hunt enough of the Demonic Race, how can you do it without bait?
