Mist Lord

"Xia Yuan, right? You can't take these supplies."

Why?

Xia Yuan's gaze was calm, as if he could see right through Zhao Wu and Li Aoyu who was following behind him.

"Do I need to explain myself to you?"

Zhao Wu's gaze was fierce.

"Xia Yuan, remember this: you're a lowly commoner, no matter where you are."

Li Aoyu deliberately lowered his voice, his eyes full of mockery: "Five years ago, my brother disappeared right before my eyes. I've just confirmed that my brother is also in the Yanxia Alliance, and a powerful Level 6 Lord at that. What makes you, a lowly commoner, think you can fight me?"

"Don't worry, I'll play you to death slowly, like a cat playing with a mouse!"

There is nothing in this world that he wants but cannot have; Xia Yuan is the first.

"grass"

Xia Yuan finally lost his temper and suddenly threw a punch, striking Li Aoyu squarely in the nose. Then, like a mad dog, he pounced on Li Aoyu, grabbing his neck tightly. "You lowly commoner, huh? You think you're noble? Your whole family is noble? But even if you're noble, you only have one life!"

"Xia Yuan, are you crazy? Don't you want to live anymore?"

Li Aoyu's face turned bright red, and his voice trembled, perhaps because he sensed the deathly aura.

"I don't care whether I live or die, I just want you to die!"

Xia Yuan's face contorted with rage; at this point, he was no longer considering the consequences. If Li Aoyu were to gain the upper hand and once again humiliate him, it would be worse than death, and his Dao heart would surely shatter.

Anyway, with the plush doll as a safety net, what's there to be afraid of? At worst, I'll trade my life for his.

"Help me, kill him, kill him, cough cough, help, help me~~~"

Having grown up playing dangerous games, Li Aoyu had never seen anything like this before. As the feeling of suffocation intensified, he was so terrified that he became incoherent and nearly wet himself. He still had a bright future ahead of him and wanted to continue to lord it over the Misty Continent. He absolutely couldn't die like this, especially not at the hands of a lowly commoner.

"Why did they suddenly start fighting?"

The group of newcomers, who were still queuing to receive supplies, were completely bewildered and were about to step forward to mediate the fight.

"Boss, don't be impulsive!!!"

Chen Wei also rushed over.

"You're asking for it!"

The newcomer was fast, but Zhao Wu was even faster. He slid forward, his right hand reaching out like an iron clamp, forcefully prying Xia Yuan's hands apart, followed by a powerful kick to Xia Yuan's abdomen, sending him flying backward.

"Wow!"

Xia Yuan, lying on the ground, coughed up blood, but his eyes were still filled with cold killing intent.

"Kill him, Zhao Wu, kill him! Cough cough!!! Break his arms and legs! I'll torture him for the rest of his life, you lowly commoner!!! You lowly commoner!!!!"

Li Aoyu's face turned purple, and he kept gagging. He was now hysterical and had completely lost his mind. He was so angry that he couldn't even speak coherently, and his words were contradictory.

He'd never suffered such humiliation since he was a child!

"Kid, don't go looking for trouble. Although the Alliance doesn't allow lords to kill each other, I can still handle dealing with a newbie like you."

Zhao Wu's gaze was equally gloomy. He didn't really want to make things look so bad in front of all the newcomers.

Why not handle it quietly?

Li Aoyu, this spoiled brat, is truly lawless and doesn't respect rules at all.

"So, it's permissible to commit murder in Yunyang City? Thank you for letting me know."

"What?"

Zhao Wu was completely bewildered by Xia Yuan's question. Had he gone mad?

Just as I was wondering, I saw Xia Yuan get up from the ground on his own, without even wiping the bloodstains from the corner of his mouth, and tear open the third-tier slave summoning scroll in front of everyone.

A flash of white light revealed a female elf clad in dark green leather armor, wielding an elven warbow and with an elven scimitar at her waist. Her face was exquisitely sculpted, with pointed ears, brown eyes, and long green hair that accentuated her lively appearance.

"Satir greets her master!"

"Kill him!"

Xia Yuan smeared the blood from the corner of his mouth onto his forehead, his gaze icy. Today, Li Aoyu must die.

"Whoosh!"

Without a second thought, Satir immediately shot an arrow straight at Li Aoyu's vital point.

"You dare, kid!"

Zhao Wu's expression changed drastically. He never expected that Xia Yuan, a newcomer, would have such incredible luck as to draw a Tier 3 Elf Archer. He immediately had a bad feeling. This matter was probably not going to end well.

"when!!!"

At the critical moment, Zhao Wu drew his sword from his waist and barely managed to deflect the fatal arrow.

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"

But soon, several more arrows came flying, each one faster than the last, piercing the air and making a whistling sound. Just as Zhao Wu was struggling to keep up, Satir drew her twin swords from her waist and quickly closed in, and the two immediately engaged in battle.

"Help me! Help me! My brother is a great lord!!!"

Li Aoyu was so frightened that he scurried into the crowd, looking extremely disheveled.

"Holy crap, what's going on?"

The newcomers were completely bewildered and instinctively kept their distance from Li Aoyu; who would dare to get involved with this scourge?

Some clever people, judging from Li Aoyu's shout and Zhao Wu's unusual behavior, vaguely guessed something and wanted to take the opportunity to curry favor with Li Aoyu, so they intentionally or unintentionally blocked Xia Yuan's pursuit.

"Get out of the way! Being a dog at home isn't enough, do you have to be a dog here too?"

"Who the hell are you calling a 'slut'?"

"We're all from the hot summer, is it necessary to kill us all? I think you just don't know what's good for you."

"Those parasites who undermine unity deserve not to receive supplies."

Some people broke down on the spot, stopped pretending, and immediately took a stand against Xia Yuan, plunging the scene into chaos.

"when!!!"

Seeing that Li Aoyu was temporarily unharmed, Zhao Wu was slightly relieved and began to focus all his efforts on dealing with Satir. He slashed down again, intending to severely injure Satir.

"when!"

Satir appeared to be raising her knife to block, but in reality, she deftly deflected the force and jumped far away.

"not good!"

Just as Zhao Wucai realized something was wrong, he saw that Satir had somehow switched back to her elven warbow and fired an arrow straight at Li Aoyu, who was hiding in the crowd.

"Uh~~~~"

The arrow was extremely cunning, fast and accurate, piercing Li Aoyu's neck from behind in an instant. Blood gushed out like a spring, and it was clear he wouldn't survive.

"Murder!!!!"

The lords surrounding Li Aoyu scattered in fear, their eyes filled with terror.

Xia Yuan strode over to Li Aoyu, who was lying on the ground, and, enduring the discomfort, forcefully pulled out the arrow that was stuck in Li Aoyu's neck, then plunged it into Li Aoyu's heart.

"You...I...am...a...lowly...commoner..."

Li Aoyu's eyes were filled with resentment and anger. His resentment towards Xia Yuan seemed to pierce his very bones. In the end, he was powerless to change the situation and died with hatred in his heart.

"Be a good person in your next life!"

Xia Yuan felt no guilt whatsoever; the man deserved to die, having harmed countless young girls back in his hometown. He casually stored the corpse in his storage space. After collecting his share of the newcomer supplies, he strode towards the teleportation array.

He deliberately ignored Chen Wei from beginning to end.

"That's a ruthless person..."

Some lords who hadn't participated at all looked at Xia Yuan with awe. Others, fearing retaliation, hid far away like thieves.

"Kid, you've gotten yourself into big trouble!"

After Li Aoyu was shot by an arrow, Zhao Wu did not make any further moves and watched coldly from the sidelines the whole time.

"...Li Mingyu? Let him come at us."

Having been entangled with Li Aoyu, Xia Yuan had naturally investigated the Li family. He learned that Li Aoyu had an older brother who had been groomed as the family heir since childhood and was far more outstanding than the纨绔 (wán kù, a spoiled brat) Li Aoyu.

For some reason, five years ago Li Mingyu suddenly disappeared from the public eye, only to find out that he had come to the Misty Continent.

The aftereffects of causality were greater than he had imagined.

"You know this and you still dare to be so reckless? Just wait for your revenge. The power of a level 6 lord is beyond your imagination. Crushing you is as easy as crushing an ant. In this world, you need not only strength, but also connections."

Zhao Wu looked at Xia Yuan as if he were looking at a dead man.

Despite his imposing manner in front of the newcomers, he is actually just a level 3 lord, which is why he wants to take the opportunity to curry favor with Li Mingyu.

Unexpectedly, the matter was not resolved, and instead, it caused a lot of trouble.

"I'm waiting!"

Xia Yuan glanced at Zhao Wu indifferently.

If conditions allowed, he would have dealt with Zhao Wu, his accomplice, as well.

Are you kidding me?
