The sweat is mine, but the numbers are all theirs.

A strong sense of fear appeared on the face of this 82nd-grade elder of the cult.

Because the woman in ice white... looked somewhat familiar; it was a memory he least wanted to face, a memory deeply hidden in his heart.

That year, he had just formed his domain and finally broke through the level 80 barrier, thus escaping the cult's resource status.

Successfully served!

At this moment, he was no longer an ant, and he no longer needed to cower in fear!

He straightened his back and went to the larger stronghold of the cult, where he recklessly used his faith points to throw a grand party and entertain guests from all directions.

That was the most triumphant time of his life; he was beaming with pride and brimming with confidence.

Those believers who used to point fingers at him and act arrogantly now have to prepare lavish gifts, bow and scrape before him, and smile obsequiously.

He thought this was going to be a great moment, the most memorable and unforgettable moment of his life, but it turned out to be a tragedy.

A beam of icy white light fell from the sky, and terrifying ice flowers froze everything. The hundreds of cultists who had just been chatting and laughing were all turned into ice sculptures in fear.

The world was utterly silent!

Everything in sight was ice white, including the earth; all the buildings were frozen inside, ready to crumble at the slightest touch.

Only he and four of his colleagues in the field were still breathing and their brains were still functioning.

But his mind was already filled with fear, and even moving became difficult for him.

The ice flower failed to freeze his physical body, but it did freeze his mind.

A deafening roar came from the side as he watched his colleagues rush towards the woman one by one.

Despite being at the same level of 80, the opponent easily suppressed four Domain Masters of higher levels and even killed one of them in a short time.

He saw that even those stronger than him could only fall from the sky as ice sculptures, filled with resentment.

He completely lost his temper, screaming and running frantically in the opposite direction, not daring to look back even once.

And so, he fled for who knows how long, perhaps... he fled until now?

When he learned that no believer had escaped from that stronghold, he never slept well again, and was awakened by fear every day and night.

He couldn't face it directly, but this time, he didn't run away.

He faced the icy white woman again, who was even 19 levels higher than before.

An unprecedented resolve appeared on the red-robed elder's face. He exerted all his strength, with only one thought remaining in his mind.

For yourself!!

He withstood the freezing power that was encroaching on his body, but instead of fleeing, he knelt down with a thud, letting out a heart-shaking shout.

"Senior, spare my life! I was misled by a villain to come here!"

The woman in ice-white remained silent, each step she took creating layers of ice that froze the red-robed elder's senses, making him feel increasingly stiff.

"I... I am a domain expert, I will definitely be useful, I can go to guard the line and atone for my sins, please, please..."

His voice grew slower and slower until his body was completely frozen, shattering as the ice-white woman walked by.

Just then, the deacon came through the passageway, preparing to deliver his victory speech, but it abruptly stopped as the elders turned into countless ice shards and fell to the ground.

He silently turned away, trying to pretend nothing had happened.

But a wave of judgment and suppression, along with the dragon's might, descended simultaneously, causing his feet to sink. Although he was only half a meter away from the passage, he couldn't reach it no matter what he did.

No! I want to go back!!

His eyes were filled with despair.

Behind her, a hundred-meter-long sword shadow wrapped in black and red lightning suddenly appeared, and golden halos rippled around the black and red horse girl. With a large number of light particles gathering, her power surged wildly.

The destruction barrier shattered, but the second layer of the judgment barrier immediately unfolded.

"cut!"

The phantom of the Sword of Judgment instantly shattered everything, and with each layer of impact, it shattered the earth.

Boom! The impact rippled outwards from the center of the collapse, sweeping away countless fragments of rock, forcing Xu Chong and the others who were rushing over to stop and defend themselves.

Roar!

Just then, a beam of dark and fiery red light shot out with a roar, striking the figure beneath the Judgment Sword.

The deacon, who was already on the verge of collapse, was filled with despair. After letting out a furious roar of resentment, he turned into ashes.

The large amount of experience points provided allowed Lu Yuan to level up again, making it a total of 5 levels!

Before coming here, he never imagined he would have such a great harvest.

They're all good people!

However, the risks were also great. If it weren't for the black and white protective chess pieces, he probably wouldn't have been able to wait for rescue and would have been crushed to death by the domain cultists who came out.

But then again, without Bai Zi as a powerful trump card to protect himself, he wouldn't have taken such a risk.

Lu Yuan bowed to the approaching woman in ice white and said, "Thank you, mentor."

If Luo Ning hadn't arrived so quickly, he would have had to use up several more white pieces.

These are rare, one less available with each use.

Luo Ning nodded gently, "If there's nothing else, you should go back early. I still need to check the situation over at the passage."

"Okay, then be careful, mentor." Lu Yuan reminded him, and then had the summoned beasts clean up the battlefield.

Take all the equipment that is not yet damaged.

At this moment, Xu Chong walked over blankly, "Junior Brother Lu, you killed them all?"

"There's no rule about leaving survivors, is there?" Lu Yuan asked rhetorically.

"...No, not at all."

Cultists of evil gods stand on the opposite side of humanity; if you encounter them, you can only kill them, or you will be killed.

There is no way.

But the fact that Lu Yuan could casually utter those words after killing someone made Xu Chong feel that Lu Yuan's mental fortitude was a bit... exaggerated.

This should even be the first time he has killed someone, right?

Don't people say that the first time will feel uncomfortable?

Xu Chong still remembers how uncomfortable he felt for many days during his first time.

This was after several senior teammates had given him ample psychological support before the battle.

What about Lu Yuan? He killed seventeen people in one go? No, more than that.

The number of surviving corpses around them already exceeded this number, indicating that more cultists had come through the passage.

How many were killed? Twenty? Thirty?

And just like that, without needing any psychological counseling or the comfort of a senior's strong arms, he acted as if nothing had happened.

This is simply superhuman.

Xu Chong felt ashamed of himself and gave a bitter laugh, "Junior, you're terrifying."

Originally, he only wanted to express his strength, but now, it's more than that.

The signboard in Tianhe Province still only displays four characters: "Godfather is awesome!"

Lu Yuan chose to ignore it and looked at the man with a knife on his back who was leading a group of law enforcement officers.

The man immediately stood at attention. "Xu Feng, thank you, Student Lu, for your righteous action, which has cleared away this hidden threat from Linyang District!"

He was the most powerful law enforcement officer in Linyang District, and was originally assigned by the branch manager as a backup for this mission.

As a result... before he could even make a move, he was pushed away by an invisible force, without even the power to resist.

Looking back now, it must have been Lu Yuan's doing...

Lu Yuan remained silent, merely looking around, and Xu Feng immediately understood his meaning.

"These are all unavoidable losses incurred by the sweepers, and the city government will pay the compensation; you don't need to come."

Lu Yuan was relieved.

If he's to pay compensation, it would be at least tens of millions.

After all, land here is extremely valuable.
