"What is that, General?" The man's right-hand man General Wan asked in shock, as he saw the blazing flames quite a distance from their location.
"I don't know, but whoever did that, that person seems to be on our side." General Wan shook his head at him. 'So this is why Queen Yuhe told us to retreat to camp? Who exactly did that? Judging by the radius of the blazing fire, I'm sure Hong Chen's cannon fodders must have been wiped out by now.' "Let's hurry back to camp, we're no longer needed here."
"Yes, General!"

Zhu Kingdom Army Camp
Even though they were very far from Xia Tian's location, Zhu Yuhe and the other cultivators could certainly see the blazing flames. Zhu Yuhe then said softly, as she smiled faintly. "Those cannon fodders are gone now, so we just have to wait for Hong Chen and his main army to arrive here."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Who exactly did that, Queen Yuhe?" Ling Xiao curiously asked, the generals, and the patriarchs present were also wondering about it.
Zhou Xuan, Xiang Yin, Yu Suya, Yu Suyin, and Xia Ling didn't say anything, since they already knew that Xia Tian was the one who did that. But they were also shocked by the power of his attack, even Zhou Xuan who had witnessed his strength before was also shocked.
Zhu Yuhe turned to them, and said with a smile. "You don't need to be curious about that person's identity, I can assure you that he is on our side, and he will help us in this war."
Zhu Yuhe purposely didn't tell them, because Xia Tian had told her before, that he didn't want the public to know anything about his involvement in this war.
Since their Queen didn't want to reveal Xia Tian's identity, so they couldn't force her to say it, and those people were just wondering in their hearts. Ling Xiao then glanced at Xia Ling, as he thought in his heart. 'It seems that Old Ling also knows the identity of that person. Could that person be Xia Tian? But how could he possibly do it? Moreover, he only started cultivating not too long ago, and that attack power is definitely not the strength of a newbie cultivator.'

Xia Tian Location
Xia Tian immediately drank two Energy Recovery Liquor to recover his energy, as Sword Burning Hell consumed 90% of his energy. 'Sigh, the energy I need to use that technique is too great, I think I should reach the Heaven Origin Realm first to be able to use it more freely.'
[That's because you used Sword Energy and Fire Energy at the same time, Master. That's why you spend so much energy, but if you don't use Fire Energy, then Sword Slaughter The World is even worse than Sword Burning Hell.]
Xia Tian nodded in agreement. 'Well, that's true. The last time I used Sword Slaughter The World, it wasn't even the pinnacle of that technique, if I used it to its full potential, then I would die from energy depletion.'
"You really are heartless, Xia Tian. It's really inappropriate for us cultivators to kill ordinary people like them" Chen Luan finally commented, as she flew closer to him, but she still couldn't bear to see the people burning beneath them, she even covered her nose with energy, because she really can't stand the smell of burning human flesh.
"Even though they are ordinary people, as long as they are my enemies, then I will never have mercy on them." Xia Tian then turned to her with a faint smile. "If you've experienced what I've been through in the past, then you wouldn't think that I'm heartless, Chen Luan."
Chen Luan raised her eyebrows. "What do you mean by that, Xia Tian? What past experience do you mean?"
"Anyway, you are too naive, Chen Luan." Xia Tian replied to him by shaking his head, then he looked up at the sky, and a strange aura radiated from his body. "In the true world of cultivation, we only have two choices, kill or be killed. If we loosen our guard, and we are too kind to others, then ordinary people like them can also kill us cultivators."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmChen Luan's heart skipped a beat as she sensed Xia Tian's aura, as she muttered to herself. "Kill or be killed?"
"In the past, I've experienced the harshness of the true cultivation world, Chen Luan." Xia Tian nodded at her. "Back then, I was still as naive as you are now, and my naivety made me nearly die time and time again, even some ordinary people used my kindness to kill me. Since then, I've decided not to be kind to other people who aren't my family, and I will kill anyone who tries to kill me, be it ordinary people or cultivators. Even if those people are my own family, but if they dare to betray and try to kill me, then I will definitely kill them without mercy."
'What exactly does he mean by his past experience? Obviously he's only 17 years old, but he talks like he's lived a very long time, and he's lived a very harsh life in the past.' Chen Luan inwardly wondered, as she looked at Xia Tian without blinking.
He Shiyun also looked at Xia Tian seriously, she herself was still wondering about his true identity, because he still hadn't told her anything. But judging from the memories of the Nature Elven Realm that he had given her, He Shiyun had already guessed that Xia Tian was indeed not an ordinary man, as those memories were clearly his own experience. 'Could Xia Tian be a reincarnator with complete past memories? I can't think of any other reason than that.'
"Now we only need to wait for Hong Chen and his main army to arrive at this place." Xia Tian then looked the other way, as he smiled faintly. 'Heh, that Golden-Tailed Scorpion King sure keeps his word.'
Alice giggled. [Of course, the scorpion beast kept his word, since he was afraid that you would hunt and slaughter them, Master.]
'En, but they will be useless if Hong Chen attacks them later.' Xia Tian smiled evilly at the thought.
