Chapter 73: Chapter 73 Entering Slaughter City_1
Xu Sheng slowly pursed his thin lips. In these few seconds, his taste buds had already adapted to the flavor that he craved...
Drinking down this Bloody Mary was like drinking plain water...
Just as he was about to pick up the Bloody Mary, the burly men who had been observing him from the side couldn't hold back any longer.
They had originally thought that Xu Sheng was a formidable character, but it now seemed that he was nothing but trash, unable to even stomach a Bloody Mary!
Therefore, they assumed that his Soul Power must be disgustingly low as well.
One of the burly men whistled and sneered, "Kid, you still look green. Better scram quickly!"
Another man, with unruly hair, licked the corners of his lips stained with the crimson liquid of the Bloody Mary and disdainfully said, "Can't even drink a Bloody Mary, and you think you have the right to come here?"
Yet another burly man had already picked up his greatsword, his voice dripping with malice, "Why let him go? Wouldn't it be better to kill him and turn him into a Bloody Mary?"
As soon as these words came out, the patrons at the other tables exchanged glances, all quietly grasping their weapons...
The server who had been lurking in the shadows gleefully said, "What a fool, to think that he had scared me just now. He can't even drink a Bloody Mary, and he doesn't deserve to be here."
Xu Sheng's cold face revealed no emotion. He turned his head and swept a cursory glance at them all, then silently set down the Bloody Mary in his hand.
"Oh? Are you talking to me?" he said with a calm, unruffled tone.
Upon hearing this, the burly men clutching their weapons all burst into laughter...
"Pfft, is this guy an idiot?"
"Looks like he's never seen the treachery of the human heart before, but he has now!"
"Kid, be more careful in your next life! Don't be a fool!"
"Real idiot or pretending, just kill him and be done with it!"
All the burly men wielding weapons stood up, and three to four Soul Rings began to slowly appear under their feet...
Most of them possessed the combination of white, yellow, yellow kind of Soul Rings...
There wasn't even a single thousand-year soul ring in sight!
They took steps towards Xu Sheng, seemingly eager to see expressions of despair and anger on his face, which would bring them immense pleasure...
"Boy, you've never seen such a terrifying level of Soul Power, huh?"
"Pfft, look at him. He probably won't even know how he dies!"
"Enough talk, let's just kill him together!"
"We're over a dozen Soul Elders with three rings; killing a smelly brat is as easy as pie for us!"
One of the burly men took the lead, carrying his greatsword and approaching within a meter of Xu Sheng, then raised his sword, aiming at the latter's neck...
"Go to hell!" After spitting out these cruel words, he swung down hard...
But the next second, only to see stems of Nine-Hearted Begonia binding his entire body, and the hand holding the greatsword froze mid-air...
The burly man only frowned at the sight of the eerie red glow of the vines, and as he stared at Xu Sheng, who was now close at hand, he kept trying to chop off Xu Sheng's head with his sword...
However, no matter how hard he tried, not a millimeter did the blade fall.
He then realized something was amiss and exclaimed, "What is... this damned thing?"
Then Xu Sheng did not answer him, but silently picked up the Bloody Mary again...
The burly man saw Xu Sheng's humiliating actions and, enraged, his first soul ring flared up...
But before he could make any move, his entire body was instantly sucked dry, turning into a husk, as the empty greatsword dropped from mid-air with a clear "thud" onto the ground...
The withered burly man collapsed on the ground, his dying eyes filled with confusion...
Clearly, he had no idea how he had died...
This eerie ability made the others step back cautiously, warily watching Xu Sheng, who had done seemingly nothing...
In their eyes, Xu Sheng had only picked up his tea when the burly man collapsed on the ground, turning into a dried-up corpse!
A slow, creeping fear of the unknown began to rise in the hearts of the crowd…
Indeed, they were men who licked blood off the edge of the knife, but they were no match for the one who could take a life with a mere flick of his hand!
A man with a scarred face exclaimed in astonishment, "What? What ability did this guy just use?"
Another slightly sleazy man shouted in shock, "Evil… Martial Soul Soul Master! This guy's Martial Soul is of an evil nature! Otherwise, it's impossible to drain a man alive in an instant!"
Standing next to the sleazy man, someone glanced at the former…
A bunch of trash, frightened by this kid's simple trickery!
"Don't be a coward; he's just bluffing. It was that guy's own arrogance. Let's take him down together! This guy must..."
Before he could finish his sentence, a cold light flashed…
The expression on the man's face froze as his head tilted and fell off, his body spurting out blood like a fountain…
Another head rolled onto the ground, and only then did the people realize the horror of Xu Sheng!
In everyone's mind, there were only two words: "Run away!"
If caught by this guy! Death is certain!!
Decisively dropping their weapons, they turned and ran for their lives toward the back…
Just when they were steps away from making it out of the shop, filled with a sense of fortune…
...
Xu Sheng gently blew on the steaming Bloody Mary in his hand and silently, elegantly took a sip…
At the same time, those who were about to make it out of the shop collapsed one after another, drained of blood just a step away from escape…
The expression on each of their faces was one of disbelief…
They were all going to survive, so why…
After Xu Sheng finished his drink, he slowly stood up, his cold gaze casually sweeping over the pile of corpses outside the shop…
The server, having observed everything from the shadows, approached Xu Sheng with a face full of fear…
Barely daring to breathe, he looked at Xu Sheng's face with caution…
Xu Sheng set down the cup containing the Bloody Mary and slowly said, "Server, where is the entrance to Slaughter City?"
Upon hearing Xu Sheng speak, the server quickly started to respond, "Sir…"
Xu Sheng interrupted, "Never mind!"
As the words fell, a thump was heard; the server who had been beside Xu Sheng slowly collapsed…
Guided by his spiritual power, Xu Sheng made his way to the bar area of the shop, glancing at the two servers shivering in the corner…
Ignoring the pair, he smashed the bar and floor open with a single palm stroke, creating a massive crack…
Suddenly, a huge hole appeared in the ground, with cold and bone-chilling wind blowing up from the opening…
Xu Sheng calmly stated, "As expected, this is the real entrance to Slaughter City."
Having said that, he jumped into the hole and began to plummet crazily…
Seeing Xu Sheng leave, the two servers hiding in the bar's corner silently breathed a sigh of relief…
"Thank goodness we didn't get involved, otherwise…"
Unbeknownst to them, as they conversed, their surroundings were already enveloped by countless Nine-Hearted Begonias, yearning for their blood…
