Another side, Sun Qian and two others had just experienced a fierce battle of life and death, and they were just relaxing when suddenly a person walked out from the woods, wrapped in a black robe covering his entire body, exuding an eerie aura.
Moreover, with his appearance, Sun Qian also found that the index of enemy identification in his arms was glowing red.
Sun Qian and Su Keke both retreated a few steps in fear, but the black-clad person emerging from the mist laughed coldly, "Very good, Lord and Lady. It's about time to settle accounts for killing my guard beast."
"Settle accounts?"
Sun Qian stared nervously at the man, but still tried to maintain his composure with a cold snort, "Hmph, you have the nerve to say that? Just now that beast wanted to kill me as soon as it saw me. If it hadn't been for my preparations in advance, I would probably have died in its mouth. That demon beast is your guardian beast. Since that's the case, its attack on me just now was also your intention, right?"
The black-robed man sneered coldly, "It's also my intention. This area is my territory. You guys blundered in, so it's natural for it to kill you. You died and deserved it."
"It's only natural for me to kill it back when it attacks me. You can't blame me."
Sun Qian argued convincingly, and the black-robed man's face suddenly twitched with laughter, "Survival of the fittest. You're right when you say that, but now we are also in survival of the fittest. You killed my guardian beast, so I should kill you as well. It's very reasonable."
"Not possible, we were just defending ourselves..."
Su Keke hurriedly replied upon hearing this. The strength of the beast just now was impressive, and the person before them could make such a beast submit, so his power must be even greater. They, being fragile, could never be a match for him.
"This is something that can't be decided by you."
The black-robed man sneered coldly and then shouted to the surroundings, "Come out."
As the words fell, several figures emerged from the forest around them, all dressed like the black-robed man; they moved forward slowly, and upon seeing Su Keke's appearance, they all let out perverted laughs.
"The little girl looks decent, hehehe, her figure is okay too, and she's still a virtuous person. She's much better than those in brothels."
"Hehe, we've been on missions outside all this time, and we haven't had any meat. This time, we can't miss it."
"That's right, it's not often we get a juicy piece of meat. Don't miss this... don't fight over it with me, I'm desperate, let me go first, then one by one."
...
The black-robed man, who was the one that appeared first, quickly walked forward and a perverted smile appeared on his face.
Su Keke's face turned pale instantly, and she panicked, ducking behind Sun Qian. The latter, with a trace of fear in his heart, stepped back slowly, "Don't be afraid, Ke Ke. I'll protect you."
"Mmm"
Su Keke nodded slightly, and then began to increase Sun Qian's attack power and defense, always preparing to treat the other party.
"Heh, protection? Look at your cowards' behavior. You dare to say you're protecting others? Not being protected is already quite something."
The black-robed man sneered coldly and then rushed towards Sun Qian. Seeing this, the latter immediately took out two explosion runes from his space ring and threw them at the former. As they fell on him, a roar sounded, sending him flying backward for dozens of zhang (a Chinese unit of distance).
"Go!"
Sun Qian shouted loudly, pulling Su Keke and running to the other side. Seeing this, the people around them immediately rushed over, ready to capture them in one fell swoop.
Sun Qian held a hand full of dense fire runes, spinning around and throwing them out. Rolling flames swept over, forming a wall of fire to block the attacks from the crowd of black-robed people.
"Go, hurry up! As long as we find Brother Chen, we'll be safe."
Sun Qian's breath was somewhat urgent. As an assistant, he had always been protected by others. To be able to get to this point today is already quite something.
However, before the two of them could run very far, a figure plummeted from the sky like an asteroid, blocking their path.
Dammit, there's still one... Die..."
Sun Qian roared angrily, he still had the life-saving talisman given by Chen Mo, and once it appeared, they could get out of trouble. But his move was swift, and the other's move was not slow either. In one move, he subdued him. Before he could take out the life-saving talisman, he had already been single-handedly pinned to the ground, unable to move.
"Get out of the way, don't hurt Sun Qian."
Su Keke angrily kicked the back of the person, but it was completely ineffective. Instead, in the next moment, a figure walked from behind her and pulled her up with both hands, suspending her in the air.
"Don't, let me go quickly!"
Su Ke Ke panicked. Her hands were being held, and she was unable to break free. A sense of crisis surged through her heart. Then, she saw that the black robes of the few people who had been blocked by the fire wall had been burned through, but they were not seriously injured. The man's face was filled with a sinister look as he walked step by step towards them.
"That kid has some skills, but that's it."
"Hmph, daring to make a move against us? You must be really bored with life."
"Why waste words with him? Kill him first."
"Wait, didn't you see that the kid is protecting that woman so fiercely? Hahaha, if we were to do something to him in front of her... "
The speaker rubbed his hands together and his smile became increasingly perverted.
Su Ke Ke's face turned as pale as a sheet in an instant, and she cried out in distress, "No, please, don't, I beg you to let me go. Please let me go. My father is the Minister of the Hanhai Empire. If you let me go, I won't treat you unfairly."
"Oh, it seems like you're a daughter of a king or an aristocrat. I'm even more interested now."
"Don't, don't touch her."
Sun Qian cried out in urgent distress, his hands being held behind him, feeling as if they were being torn apart with immense pain. Compared to the humiliation being inflicted upon Su Ke Ke, this pain was nothing to him.
Sun Qian's eyes were red with anger, frantically shouting, wanting to turn over, but he was firmly pressed down by the big man on his body, unable to move an inch.
"Please, you can have anything you want from me, but don't, don't hurt Ke Ke. I beg of you."
Sun Qian begged in a low and abject manner.
However, his requests to them looked like a joke to that crowd of black-robed people. Not only did they not make them show mercy, but they also encouraged their arrogant attitudes.
"I just love watching this kind of bitter drama. Haha, let me go first. I want to see how much this kid can resist... "
As one person started to undress, and he was helpless, Sun Qian exerted all his strength to break free, but there was no movement. Tears of humiliation flowed from his eyes.
"Who, who will save us? Anybody, as long as it's possible to save Ke Ke... Chen Brother, Chen San Zang, Chen Mo, Chen Mo save us..."
Sun Qian's entire body was pressed to the ground, unable to move, his face rubbing against the sand and rocks on the ground, skin had been scraped, blood seeping out and staining the ground red. At this moment, he could only weakly express humble supplication.
"Who is calling upon the names of the Ancestor?"
Suddenly, an old voice came from the forest...
