Why wasn't his life spared?

Hearing Li Yan's answer, Qin Fei felt a little regretful, because they had finally managed to catch such a survivor.

“The situation was dangerous. If we hadn’t killed him, you might not have survived either. Never underestimate an assassin’s determination to kill his target.” Li Yan shook his head as he spoke. “Besides, even if you were in this situation, you would probably have taken the other person’s life the moment you made your move.”

At that time, Qin Fei's fate was uncertain. If they didn't deal with the assassin, and he ended up stabbing Qin Fei again, they would truly become a laughing stock.

Furthermore, this is a normal stress response of the human body. Given the chaotic situation at the time, they naturally had to prioritize saving Qin Fei's life.

"Then the clue we finally got is probably gone again."

The assassin communicates with his superior by passing notes, but they still haven't found out exactly where the notes are placed, which is causing them considerable anxiety.

If only they had asked each other more questions before breaking the seal.

Unfortunately, while there are all kinds of medicines available for sale, there is no medicine for regret, so they can only think about such things in their minds.

"It's alright, the clues haven't all gone cold. At least we know that even after he's dead, assassins will continue to come after you."

Qin Fei: "..."

Although Li Yan was trying to comfort himself, something just didn't sound right to him.

"Having lost two powerful figures in a row, I wonder if Tianya Haijiao will regret taking on this mission."

Cultivating any strong individual is no easy task. It requires not only a massive investment of resources but also a considerable amount of time. Even if the Tianya Haijiao organization is very powerful, they probably cannot afford to lose their strong individuals so quickly.

"Now that you're awake, you should get yourself in a better state first."

Qin Fei's injuries are indeed almost healed. Even some hidden ailments were completely cured the moment he broke through to the next realm. So what Qin Fei needs to do now is to consolidate the realm he just broke through to.

Mid-stage Earth Profound Realm, this realm is only one step away from Li Yan's late-stage Earth Profound Realm.

It has to be said that Qin Fei's takeoff speed was really too fast, and Li Yan also felt the pressure.

"What incredible luck!"

Feeling his cultivation at the mid-stage of the Earth Profound Realm, Qin Fei felt somewhat dazed. He had only lost consciousness for a moment, and then his realm broke through to the mid-stage of the Earth Profound Realm. It was like a dream to him.

Of course, Qin Fei himself knew that without Li Yan's all-out effort, let alone breaking through to a higher realm, it would be questionable whether he could even survive.

This time, I'm afraid I really owe this person a huge favor.

Unfortunately, Li Yan was born into a noble family and was also a super genius of the Li family, so he lacked nothing. Therefore, even if Qin Fei wanted to compensate him, he could not find a suitable one.

The ancient battlefield world was rich in spiritual energy, so it didn't take Qin Fei too long to consolidate his realm. It probably only took about a day before he was able to break free from his cultivation state.

His cultivation level has been completely stabilized at the mid-stage of the Earth Profound Realm, and his internal organs have also been strengthened.

He felt that even if he confronted Liu Wen of the Liu family head-on at this point, he would probably have a chance.

Even if he can't kill his opponent, at least he won't be defeated so easily.

"Li Yan, come out and fight!"

Just as Qin Fei was feeling stronger, he soon heard a loud shout echoing through the city. Qin Fei recognized the voice; it was Liu Wen from the Liu family!

This bastard's skill level seems to have increased again, and his voice is even more penetrating!

Previously, his realm was the late stage of the Earth Profound Realm, but now it seems that his realm has broken through to the Divine Radiance Realm!

What is the Divine Radiance Realm?

It means a significant increase in soul power, and many alchemists begin to experience a turning point at this stage.

This is like a natural threshold, dividing alchemists into two tiers.

However, Liu Wen doesn't seem to be an alchemist, so saying these things doesn't seem to have any effect.

When Liu Wen came before, his cultivation level was similar to Li Yan's, but the two of them still fought and didn't really have a clear winner. But now that his cultivation level has broken through to the Divine Radiance Realm first, he naturally wants to come and make Li Yan's presence known.

They were both at the same level, but now a gap had suddenly appeared between their cultivation levels, so of course he had to come over and beat Li Yan up.

"No time!"

In response to Liu Wen's challenge, Li Yan responded with a straightforward and blunt rebuke.

Knowing that the two were not on equal footing, if he still rushed out to fight Liu Wen, he would be the one who would lose face.

Liu Wenben was a person who specialized in physical cultivation. Now that he has broken through to the Divine Radiance Realm, his soul power has also been greatly enhanced. He is not without flaws, but he is definitely much stronger than before.

From any perspective, Li Yan, who is only at the late stage of the Earth Profound Realm, cannot gain any advantage.

If that's the case, then why bother going out to fight the other side?

Seeing that Li Yan didn't come out, Liu Wen outside got even more excited: "Don't worry, once you come out, I'll lower my cultivation level and fight you directly, I won't take the slightest advantage of you."

"Get lost, I told you I'm busy right now."

Li Yan had no reason to believe the other party's nonsense; he wouldn't even believe a single punctuation mark they uttered.

He says he won't take advantage of others, but if things really get heated between them, he'll probably get a beating. It won't just be Li Yan who loses face; his entire Li family will be humiliated too.

"Young Master, let's fight him!"

Just then, a voice rang out; it was Li Yan's protector who spoke.

Li Yan has not yet broken through his cultivation level, so he does not want to fight Liu Wen. However, Li Yan's protector is now supporting him to fight Liu Wen. What does this mean?

"Why?" Li Yan reasonably raised his question.

"Since we are now on the path to invincibility, we shouldn't refuse their challenge. It's just that they are slightly stronger in terms of cultivation level, not that it's a complete crushing defeat!"

“This is a challenge, but it is also an opportunity,” Li Yan’s protector replied.

"Okay, then I'll fight him!"

Upon hearing the protector's words, Li Yan immediately said to Liu Wen, who was challenging him from the outside, "Stop shouting outside, I'll come out and beat you to death right now!"

As the saying goes, pressure is the source of motivation. Why did Qin Fei's cultivation level improve so quickly before?

Isn't it because he forcibly put pressure on himself?

Since Li Yan doesn't break through his cultivation level easily, he'll put some pressure on himself.

His protectors probably meant the same thing.

"What a joke! You think you can kill me?"

Upon hearing Li Yan's words, Liu Wen outside immediately sneered.

He wasn't afraid of Li Yan when they were at the same level, let alone now.

It's fair to say that even if Li Yan had one hand, he still wouldn't be able to beat him.

A significant leap in one's cultivation level inevitably brings about a qualitative leap, making him far more powerful than before.

"Whether we can kill you or not, we'll find out by trying."

Humans are creatures who care about their reputation. Since Liu Wen has challenged him, Li Yan should accept the challenge. Perhaps his cultivation level will break through during the battle?

This is not impossible. As the saying goes, there is always a way out of a desperate situation. Who knows if it will work if you don't try?

"Let's go to our usual spot outside the city!"

Liu Wen shouted at Li Yan.

"Who's afraid of who?!" Li Yan immediately responded.

Liu Wen went first, followed by Li Yan, and the two headed out of the city one after the other.

After the two of them left, Li Yan's guardian followed without hesitation.

"Don't stay here for long!"

Li Yan and his guardians left one after another, and Qin Fei instantly felt a sense of crisis. After all, he was still being watched by the assassin organization Tianya Haijiao. Although the two assassins they sent were gone, they would definitely send other assassins to deal with him.

Now that Li Yan and his protectors are no longer around, if an assassin comes to deal with him, the risk of Qin Fei's demise is far too great.

Although he is arrogant and has a strong sense of integrity, he is not a fool.

These assassins are too powerful; he simply cannot deal with them with his current abilities. Therefore, he can only act with Li Yan and the other person.

Wherever they go, I will go too!

Only in this way can one's safety be guaranteed to the greatest extent.

With the two super families' geniuses about to clash, the people in the city, like cats smelling fish, rushed out of the city, seemingly unwilling to miss such a visual feast.

Li Yan is no ordinary person; his combat power has long surpassed the Earth Profound Realm and reached the Divine Radiance Realm. Now, Liu Wen is clearly even more powerful, having already entered the Divine Radiance Realm.

A super genius at the Divine Radiance Realm level, how terrifying power will he unleash?

This is the biggest highlight of this battle so far.

"Brother Qin, you actually dare to come out?"

Just as Qin Fei arrived outside the city, he saw a familiar face.

Fatty Ge from the Ge's Exchange.

This guy isn't guarding his own shop anymore; he's come out to watch the fun too.

"Why wouldn't I dare to come out?" Qin Fei asked, puzzled.

“There are a lot of people in the city who want you dead right now. You should be hiding,” Fatty Ge said to Qin Fei in a low voice. “Don’t you know that there are people in the shadows who want you dead?”

"You found out about this too?"

Upon hearing this, Qin Fei's heart tightened, and he even subconsciously tried to distance himself from Fatty Ge.

You should know that he never publicized the fact that the assassins were targeting him. The deaths of those two assassins should have been kept secret by Li Yan, so the outside world shouldn't have heard a word about it.

But now that Fatty Ge was speaking so fluently, Qin Fei couldn't help but suspect that this matter might be related to this fat man.

"What are you hiding from?"

Seeing Qin Fei about to retreat, Fatty Ge leaned forward and whispered, "Now others have already paid the price of a divine weapon to kill you, so you're quite valuable now."

"Ok?"

Upon hearing this, Qin Fei was filled with questions.

He felt that his thoughts and what Fatty Ge said were somewhat contradictory.

Are they talking about the same thing?
