With a single kick, the door to the hall flew open and everyone that was inside was stunned to see this.
They all turned to look in the direction of the door and they were shocked to find Wang Jian standing there with swords floating around him. However, that wasn't the only thing that surprised them as most of them were looking right at Wang Jian's face, rather his right cheek to be precise.
Wang Jian could tell that something was wrong since they weren't reacting the way that he thought that they would. He could also hear that there were a few whispers among the people standing in front of him.
"What's that on his face?"
"Could it be a mark that someone left while fighting him?"
"Doesn't he have anything to take care of it?"
"He really does look dumb, doesn't he?"
…
Hearing all of this, Wang Jian immediately knitted his brows as he realized that something was off.
He looked down at his hand where there was a mirror that was waiting for him that he had pulled out of his Storage Ring. Things like mirrors were considered daily necessities since experts like him usually camped out in the wilderness on hunts, so of course they would need these daily necessities at any time.
Looking in the mirror, the expression on Wang Jian's face turned stiff as he saw what was on his face.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtOn his right cheek, there was a red hand mark that made it look like he had just been slapped and in the center of that red hand mark was a red dot.
Wang Jian's face twitched a few times when he saw this and as his mind turned, he quickly figured out what it was.
Naturally he knew that Lin Fan used ants because he had shown it to him, so when he saw that ant corpse in his hand after slapping his face, he knew that it was sent by Lin Fan.
So of course when he saw this mark on his face where the ant had bitten him, it was clear that Lin Fan also caused this.
This was Lin Fan's small revenge on Wang Jian for falling asleep.
While the poison of the Desert Horror Ant wasn't able to actually hurt Wang Jian since it was too weak, it was still able to affect him in another way. When the poison spread under Wang Jian's skin, it caused the skin to easily bruise and caused that bruise to last a long time, which was why there was that red hand mark on his face from when he slapped himself.
Still, even though he knew what was wrong with his face, there was nothing that Wang Jian could do other than act like it was nothing. After all, if he were to address it, it would draw more attention to it and would make the situation worse.
So without waiting any longer, Wang Jian charged forward and sent the swords flying in the air out towards the people in front of him.
None of the people could react to the swords that suddenly flew out at them and without any hesitation, they were cut down. However, the swords hadn't been aimed at the six high Embryo Soul Realm Experts who had been standing in the center.
Wang Jian had only targeted the Embryo Soul Realm Experts who had been in the crowd, cutting down ten of them in total.
But when he did, he lost the element of surprise because the people in the room had reacted from their daze.
They had been waiting there to see what Wang Jian wanted to do because it wasn't in their best interests to fight Wang Jian now. They wanted to see if Wang Jian would attack and if there was a chance for them to escape unscathed.
However, now that Wang Jian had made a move, it didn't seem that was likely.
Even so, there wasn't a single one of the high Embryo Soul Realm Experts that looked like they would make a move. It was almost as if they were all waiting for each other to make a move instead.
But seeing that no one was making a move, the person who had called them all together and the person who had been leading the meeting came forward with a smile and said, "Brother Wang, there's no need for this, right? We can talk about working together instead. After all, if the six of us work together with you, it'll be easy for us to take all the red balls."
Without any hesitation, this person had thrown away the rest of the people here which immediately created an uproar.
The other people around him all cursed out him and the other five, but they completely ignored everyone else that was also here. The only person that they were focused on was Wang Jian who was standing at the door with swords floating around him.
Wang Jian looked at these six and gave a cold snort before flicking his hand again. The swords that had been around him flew out at the Embryo Soul Realm Experts other than the six of them, cutting them down one by one.
The High Embryo Soul Realm Expert who spoke earlier asked, "Brother Wang, this is?"
Wang Jian looked at him and said, "Didn't you want to work together to take down all of these people? I'm doing that now, so what are you doing?"
At this, the High Embryo Soul Realm Expert's eyes lit up. He immediately drew his sword as well and slashed out at the closest Embryo Soul Realm Expert to him.
That person had a look of surprise as he looked at him and said, "You really are shameless!"
Even though the High Embryo Soul Realm Expert was stronger, that didn't mean that the mid Embryo Soul Realm Expert that he attacked would go down without a fight. He was able to put up quite a struggle, but he still went down in the end.
During this time, Wang Jian had already cut down another twenty Embryo Soul Realm Experts. Also during this time, the other High Embryo Soul Realm Experts had also moved on the other Embryo Soul Realm Experts.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSome of them fought weaker ones and some fought stronger ones, but they also took out another ten Embryo Soul Realm Experts.
By the end of it, there were only five Embryo Soul Realm Experts left standing.
As for the other five, they had been smart enough to see that the situation was bad, so they had tried to escape.
This room had two different exits and one was being guarded by Wang Jian, so naturally they made their way through the crowd to the other exit while the other Embryo Soul Realm Experts were delaying Wang Jian and the High Embryo Soul Realm Experts. The only problem was that there was also someone guarding this door, someone who had been in this room all along.
As soon as he saw Wang Jian enter the room, Lin Fan took advantage of the commotion he caused to knock out his two targets. The pet on their shoulders had tried to protect them, but Lin Fan also quickly sealed the life energy of these two pets before throwing them to Mo Ze Chen.
There wasn't any time for him to get the red balls out of these pets right now, he had to get to the other exit right away. Once he came to the other exit, this room was perfectly sealed and all the people inside were trapped like rats.
As for the Fragmented Soul Realm Experts, there was no need to mention them at all. They tried to run away, but they were all easily dealt with by either Wang Jian or Lin Fan who were both guarding a door.
Seeing that there were only five Embryo Soul Realm Experts left, the lead High Embryo Soul Realm Expert turned back to Wang Jian and said, "Brother Wang, should we start discussing how our cooperation will work?"
They had already done their part to show their sincerity to Wang Jian, there was no need for them to keep attacking. Naturally, the most important thing for them to do now was to secure as many benefits as they could for themselves.
But Wang Jian just completely ignored him as he raised his flying swords again.
The remaining five Embryo Soul Realm Experts raised their weapons to defend themselves with and their pets were standing in front of them as shields, but none of that mattered as Wang Jian's flying swords skillfully weaved through the spaces between them to cut them down.
Of course, he only cut down the masters and not the pets themselves. So once the masters were cut down, the pets immediately went to the masters' side and didn't bother Wang Jian anymore.
Once he finished with the five of them, he turned back to the six High Embryo Soul Realm Experts standing there.
When they saw him look over, they felt a chill run down their spines, but they still didn't give up hope just yet. The lead High Embryo Soul Realm Expert revealed a smile and said, "Brother Wang, how about we discuss the terms of our cooperation? I'm sure you've seen our sincerity, so you should know that you can trust us."
When he heard this, Wang Jian broke out in laughter before saying, "Did you really think that I was listening to words from trash like you at all?"
All six of them immediately knitted their brows and when the leader wanted to say something, Wang Jian said, "Brother Lin, can you take care of the other five? I only want this one."
