”Who are you! Courting death!”

When one of the Assassins was suddenly ambushed and knocked down by Qin Tian, the other three instantly became alert, then furious!

At that moment, the True Qi Cage formed by their flashing blades and Sword Shadows had already been shattered by Qin Tian. They were just about to finish off Su Ziying, but out of nowhere someone barged in—and even launched a sneak attack!

The three of them were enraged on the spot. Knowing that the badly injured Su Ziying no longer had any combat power, they immediately concentrated their firepower and launched a fierce assault on Qin Tian!

Qin Tian said nothing. He knew these people had to be Assassins sent by Ninth Young Master, so he decided to annihilate them all. Otherwise, if even one escaped and went back to report to Ninth Young Master, Qin Tian probably wouldn’t be able to survive in the Xuanyuan Immortal Sect in the future!

Ghost Kill burst forth. Qin Tian’s Red Sword flared with waves of crimson light; in just a few moments, he completely seized the initiative and directly suppressed the three Assassins.

By this time, Su Ziying had caught her breath. After taking an Elixir, she recovered a bit of Primordial Energy and immediately joined the battle.

The two fought side by side. In less than half an hour, they killed all three.

”Junior Brother Qin Tian, thank you.”

After landing, Su Ziying looked at Qin Tian, full of gratitude, and said, ”If you hadn’t appeared in time, I’d definitely be dead today.”

To be honest, when they first left the Xuanyuan Immortal Sect, Su Ziying had hardly taken a close look at Qin Tian. The rest of the Xuanyuan Four Masters were all aloof, and none of them took the newly promoted Qin Tian seriously, so Su Ziying hadn’t bothered to size him up carefully either.

This time, Qin Tian had saved her life, and only now did she truly look at him properly.

With one look, she found Qin Tian to be handsome and outstanding. She nodded to him and said, ”Your Ghost Kill just now has already reached the Peak Realm. Really impressive.”

”Before, when I saw you exchange blows with Zhu Qige, you were only about evenly matched. I didn’t expect you to improve this fast.”

Breaking with precedent, Su Ziying—who had barely spoken to Qin Tian before—was now suddenly showering him with praises. It left Qin Tian a bit dumbfounded.

Sure enough, in the Immortal Domain World, strength is king; strength alone determines status.

”Are you okay? I can see you’re injured.”

Qin Tian glanced at Su Ziying. He had to admit, within the Xuanyuan Immortal Sect, Su Ziying counted as a top-tier beauty, maybe even the number one beauty Qin Tian had seen there.

However, perhaps because Qin Tian had already met Yan Lingshuang earlier, Su Ziying didn’t seem quite as stunning to him now.

”Thank you for your concern. I already took an Elixir just now. After I go back and rest for a while, I’ll be fine.”

Su Ziying politely thanked Qin Tian for his concern, then asked curiously, ”How did you end up here?”

”Hunting Demons, of course. After I entered the Black Abyss, I kept heading southeast until I reached the end. Now I plan to go from south to north on my way back,” Qin Tian said.

”I’m getting ready to head back too, so… why don’t we travel together?”

Su Ziying thought it over. She was injured now and would need at least two months to fully recover. Trying to kill more Demons would not only be dangerous, it didn’t seem very realistic.

What’s more, she had no idea why those Assassins had just attacked her. If she continued alone and ran into more Assassins, she definitely wouldn’t be able to escape.

Traveling with Qin Tian felt much safer.

”Sure. We’ll split the Demons we kill fifty–fifty,” Qin Tian agreed. In truth, he didn’t really care about rewards and such. Since he’d promised Xuanyuan Shenyue that he would protect Su Ziying, now that he’d run into her, it was just as well.

”No need. I’m only going with you for safety. As for the Monsters we kill, the Demon Crystals from the ones you kill are yours; the ones I kill are mine. I won’t fight you over them… I only have two hundred Demon Crystals right now anyway. I probably won’t make the top ten, so I don’t care about that.”

The two of them traveled together, heading north.

On their way from south to north, they ran into disciples from other Immortal Sects as well. After a brief encounter, everyone chose their own routes and went off in different directions, trying their best to avoid running into each other.

Qin Tian and Su Ziying together killed more than three hundred Demons. Qin Tian obtained over two hundred Demon Crystals, while Su Ziying collected more than eighty.

”Qin Tian, you must have five or six hundred Devil Crystals by now, right?”

In a quiet valley, after Qin Tian and Su Ziying killed more than fifty Tree Demons, Su Ziying asked Qin Tian curiously.

All along the way, she had watched Qin Tian fight. This strongest new Disciple—who was able to kill Elder Li Jinyuan and defeat Zhu Qige—truly lived up to his reputation. His strikes were steady, precise, and ruthless, and he had a very strong ability to kill across realms. Watching him, Su Ziying couldn’t help feeling inferior, thinking to herself that it was fortunate she wasn’t his enemy.

”Around eight hundred.”

Qin Tian replied calmly. On hearing this, Su Ziying was shocked and said, ”Already eight hundred? Your… speed is incredible. At this pace, by the time of the final tally, you’ll definitely break a thousand and be ranked in the top ten for sure. Congratulations.”

Su Ziying looked at Qin Tian, smiling brightly.

It was as if his overwhelming strength proved her judgment right, and she was very pleased.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

Just as the two were preparing to leave, a gust of icy wind howled toward them, and their faces changed abruptly!

The cold wind carried killing intent!

”These guys really are like lingering ghosts!”

Feeling that this killing intent wasn’t something Demons could emit, Qin Tian instantly understood—this had to be another batch of Assassins sent by Ninth Young Master. They were here again!

It seemed his previous assessment of Ninth Young Master had been spot on!

This guy was utterly insane—practically inhuman!

”It’s that aura again… Qin Tian, that group of Assassins has caught up to us again.”

As she sensed this aura, Su Ziying’s expression darkened, becoming extremely grave.

Sure enough, as the killing intent closed in and Qin Tian and Su Ziying simultaneously pushed that aura back, six black figures descended from the sky!

Their outfits were identical to those of the four Assassins from before: shrouded in black clothes, faces obscured—obviously professional Assassins.

Qin Tian hadn’t expected that in the Immortal Domain there would be professional Assassins, each with such high cultivation.

”Kill!”

As soon as the six black figures landed, one Black-clothed Man gave a low shout, and all six lunged straight at Qin Tian and Su Ziying!

Killing intent surged!

True Qi roiled!

Qin Tian and Su Ziying dared not be careless!

Of the six Black-clothed Men, four went for Qin Tian, and the other two targeted Su Ziying. It seemed they had already planned this out—to separate Qin Tian and Su Ziying and take them down one by one!

”Divine Vein Technique! Power of Nine Dragons!”

Qin Tian gave a low roar as nine True Qi Giant Dragons soared into the sky!

Facing the assault of those four, Qin Tian controlled the nine dragons and, in the very first instant, blocked their sure-kill Killing Moves.

On the other side, however, Su Ziying was starting to feel the strain.
