At this moment, on the open ground beside the bonfire, only the two burly men in black who had been kicked unconscious by Lu Bingyao earlier remained. If it weren't for the faint smell of blood still lingering in the air, it would be hard to imagine that a killing had just taken place here.
Seeing Qin Yang handling the corpses, Lu Bingyao's expression was quite normal, while Su Qingqing and Sun Tiantian's faces were somewhat pale. Obviously, the deaths of so many people at once were a big shock to them.
"Are you two okay?"
Qin Yang turned his gaze toward Sun Tiantian and Su Qingqing and asked.
"No... problem..."
Sun Tiantian shook her head, her beautiful eyes blinked slightly, and she asked with some concern, "Qin Yang, is it okay to have killed them all?"
"Hehe, I didn't even know them before. It's not that I wanted to kill them, but they wanted to kill me and take you away. They were simply outmatched and got killed by me. Should only they be allowed to kill me and not me kill them? Just imagine, what would the consequence be tonight if I hadn't been strong enough?"
Qin Yang said gently.
Upon hearing this, Sun Tiantian and Su Qingqing exchanged a glance, understanding all too well the consequence.
Both girls came from good families, especially the Su Family, a colossal entity. Naturally, their worldview and psychological qualities were above those of ordinary people their age, but seeing so many people die at once was a first for them, making it somewhat difficult to adapt.
"It's not embarrassing to admit if you're scared."
Lu Bingyao suddenly spoke.
"Who said I'm scared? It's just a few dead people, I've seen plenty..."
Sun Tiantian pouted and forced herself to say it, clearly not wanting to lose face in front of Lu Bingyao. But although she said she wasn't afraid, her face was still a bit pale.
Qin Yang glanced at the composed Lu Bingyao, aware that this ice-cold girl was dispelling the girls' fears in her unique way.
"Actually, we are the ones who got involved with these people."
Su Qingqing gave a glance at Qin Yang and said. At this moment, her face had returned to normal, worthy of being a girl from a major family.
Beside her, Sun Tiantian also nodded, that Ximen Huan was smitten by them, which led to Qin Yang's conflict with Ximen Huan.
"Don't be silly, being pretty isn't a crime. Beautiful girls are admired by everyone, that's normal. But the fault lies in the despicable means they used. Using such means, they deserved to die."
Qin Yang chuckled and said, with a hint of coldness in his voice when he reached the last few words.
In the Immortal Yuan Continent where only the strong survive, there are taboos not to be touched. To resort to such forceful acts incurs the contempt of other cultivators.
"By the way, here's something for your protection."
Qin Yang pulled out a handful of talismans from his pocket and handed them to the three ladies.
"Are these... talisman papers?"
Sun Tiantian touched the soft talisman paper in her hand and asked with surprise, noting that Qin Yang had used this to kill the strongest person among them earlier.
"Yes, with these talismans, ordinary ancient martial artists can't harm you, so keep them close."
Qin Yang nodded and said. Although these talismans are powerful enough to kill even profound tier experts if he were to use them, the three ladies' combat awareness couldn't compare to his, so using them for self-protection is enough.
Qin Yang then explained the usage of the talismans to the three ladies.
"Qin Yang, can I throw one and try it?"
Sun Tiantian asked eagerly.
But after her words, she immediately stuck out her small tongue, apparently aware that these talismans were precious and wasting one seemed inappropriate.
"Sure, try one."
Qin Yang said with a smile, letting Sun Tiantian try one on her own to avoid panicking in battle.
Besides, he had already mastered the Celestial Sword Pavilion and had instructed the disciples to find the Sealing Spirit Grass. Since there was some near Mirror Lake, it might be elsewhere too. With the Sealing Spirit Grass, a large number of talisman papers could be made.
"These talismans are so magical..."
Sun Tiantian blinked with amazement. Under Qin Yang's guidance, she had just used an Ice Seal Talisman.
The giant ice sculpture of the tree frozen in front of her was her masterpiece. From roots, trunk, branches to every leaf, all were sealed in ice, crystal-clear and incredibly magical.
"When we get back, I'll give you some protective armor."
Qin Yang said with a smile. The crocodile skin of the Purple Lightning Mother Crocodile could be refined into a lot of armor, perfect for protection.
Upon hearing this, the three ladies' eyes brightened. Since talismans were already so magical, the armor for protection must also be very impressive.
"Qin Yang, thank you."
Thinking of how kind Qin Yang was to her, Sun Tiantian felt sweet inside, grateful for receiving several valuable talismans from him.
"Alright, you three should get back to sleep."
Qin Yang said with a smile.
"Okay, you should rest early too."
Sun Tiantian nodded and gave Qin Yang a sweet smile before speaking.
After experiencing the night's disturbance, it was midnight now, and both Su Qingqing and Sun Tiantian were ordinary people, their hearts and spirits already exhausted. So, they returned to the tent hand in hand.
Lu Bingyao walked forward for a few steps, then stopped, looked at Qin Yang, and asked, "Qin Yang, what do you plan to do next?"
"I naturally need to track down Ximen Huan, the mastermind. He plotted against you all and wanted to kill me, so he should be prepared to be counter-killed."
Qin Yang's gaze turned cold. From the first moment he saw Ximen Huan, he knew that guy was a lustful ghost, surely having done many vile things like abducting girls. Crossing paths with him was Ximen Huan's bad luck.
"Is your arm's poison okay? Should I go with you?"
Lu Bingyao looked at the palm-sized black mark on Qin Yang's arm and asked.
"No need, the poison is temporarily sealed, I'll expel it tomorrow when I return, then it'll be fine."
Qin Yang replied with a faint smile.
"Be careful."
Lu Bingyao nodded and said.
"Alright, I know, you should go back to sleep."
Qin Yang smiled then walked toward the two unconscious men in black on the ground.
Qin Yang grabbed one in each hand and dragged them into the dark forest.
Bang! Bang!
Two slaps from Qin Yang's hand woke them both up instantly.
The two men in black awoke with swollen faces, but upon realizing who stood before them, their expressions turned grim simultaneously.
One of the men in black reacted quickly, reaching for his suit pocket.
"Let's see if you grab your gun first or if I kill you first."
Qin Yang coldly said, stepping on the throat of the grabbing man in black.
Feeling the foot on his neck, the man's face changed drastically, and the other man, who was preparing to draw his gun, also froze, not daring to move.
