Swoosh!

The tail of the Red Poison Giant Scorpion tore through the air, leaving a pitch-black afterimage, like a flash of black sword light, sweeping forward.

"Not good!"

Seeing the scorpion tail coming towards them, the remaining three turned pale.

The lean martial artist, knowing that continuing to flee was futile, shouted, "Let’s attack together and kill this beast."

As he spoke, the lean martial artist stomped on the ground, stopping in his tracks, grasping the hilt of his treasured saber with both hands, he turned and slashed back.

Clang!

A massive blade light carved a deep ditch in the desert, striking the Red Poison Giant Scorpion’s tail accurately, instantly bursting into thousands of sparks, and a fierce shockwave carved a huge crater into the ground.

The lean martial artist, shaken by the immense force transmitted through the saber, staggered back more than ten steps. The saber Qi barely broke through the Red Poison Giant Scorpion’s defense, leaving a half-finger deep saber mark, and the black blood splashed onto the ground, corroding the sand layer with large holes.

At this moment, the other two attacked with full force as well.

The alluring woman’s cultivation was roughly in the early stage of the Ninth Layer of the Spiritual Rotation Realm, wielding a three-foot-three-inch soft sword that shimmered with cold light, exuding a chill under the western setting sun, clearly a Spirit Weapon.

"Night Gap Running Empty!"

Licking her red lips with the tip of her tongue, the alluring woman flicked her slender wrist, and the soft sword trembled, immediately erupting into countless frigid sword lights, dense and pouring out, like countless stars streaking through the night sky, resplendent and dazzling, with hidden killing intent, giving the illusion of no empty space.

The other young martial artist, dressed in black, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, robust and broad-shouldered, wielded a large, long-handled saber close to two people tall, matching the alluring woman in cultivation.

"Broken Flow Furious Tiger Slash!"

With a loud roar, the black-clad martial artist’s eyes glowed like lightning, his body soaring into the air, golden light surged on the long saber, forming a mass of golden saber light, transforming into an enraged golden giant tiger with wide eyes, charging towards the scorpion tail with countless cold sword Qi.

How powerful was the Red Poison Giant Scorpion, spraying out a pillar of black Demon Qi, directly shattering and dispersing all the sword light and saber Qi.

Sizzle!

The air trembled slightly, and the scorpion tail flicked through the air like a black lightning bolt, aiming to pierce the alluring woman.

"Get back!"

The lean martial artist, in the mid-stage of the Ninth Layer of the Spiritual Rotation Realm, reacted the fastest. Seeing the scorpion tail coming, he slashed down, blocking the scorpion tail, but the tail contained such immense power it forced him back several dozens of steps.

Rumble...

At this point, the massive body of the Red Poison Giant Scorpion chased after them, its eyes blood-red and fierce, with its giant, mountain-like pincers descending from above towards the alluring woman and the black-clad martial artist, causing a roaring sound resembling thunder.

"You go first!"

The black-clad martial artist stood in front of the alluring woman, gripping the long saber with both hands, exuding an immovable aura, intending to block the Red Poison Giant Scorpion.

However, he underestimated the strength of the Red Poison Giant Scorpion. Upon contact between claw and saber, the black-clad martial artist spewed a mouthful of blood, the ground under his feet cracking and his feet sinking deep into the sand.

Sizzle!

A piercing sound rang out as the barbed scorpion tail, like a black lightning bolt, aimed at his head.

"Xu Chuan!"

The alluring woman’s face paled, knowing that if the black-clad martial artist succumbed, she too would be crushed into pulp in an instant.

Clang!

Just when the black-clad martial artist and the alluring woman thought they were doomed, a ribbon-like saber Qi shot over from a distance. The tail of the Red Poison Giant Scorpion was cut off, sending its massive body flying twenty to thirty meters across the sand.

Having narrowly escaped death, the young martial artist’s pressure loosened, spewing another mouthful of blood, his long saber clattering to the ground.

"Xu Chuan, are you alright?"

The alluring woman rushed over, speaking with lingering fear.

Kneeling half on the ground, the black-clad martial artist shook his head, "I’m not going to die, fortunately, that slash came just in time. Otherwise, both you and I might not have escaped doom."

The alluring woman lightly bit her red lips, looking back, she said, "It wasn’t him who acted just now. It was him."

"Him?"

The black-clad martial artist was taken aback, following the alluring woman’s gaze.

A few hundred meters away, a figure was flying towards them, clad in a light blue outfit and wearing a black mask, obscuring his face.

"Thank you, young hero, for saving our lives." As Luo Feng approached, the black-clad martial artist stood up and clasped his hands, scrutinizing Luo Feng with amazement in his eyes.

Judging by his appearance, the man seemed young, likely under twenty-five, yet he had the power to drive back the Red Poison Giant Scorpion with one slash — truly terrifying.

"It was a small matter, no need to thank me."

The figure waved it off casually.

The newcomer was Luo Feng, who had been scouting for adventuring martial artists in the vicinity. Sensing the aura of battle, he had come over and, seeing the three in danger, intervened without hesitation.

Hearing Luo Feng’s words, the three nearby were stunned, the black-clad martial artist was rooted in place, thinking the newcomer to be aged around twenty to twenty-five, yet from his voice, judged him to be no older than eighteen!

The lean martial artist scrutinized Luo Feng, his gaze resting on Emperor Yan’s Sky-breaking Saber, with a slight narrowing of his pupils, a smile spread across his face:

"Young hero, you need not be modest. Without your help, we might all have perished here."

At this moment, the black-clad martial artist’s expression changed, warning, "Watch out!"

In the distance, the Red Poison Giant Scorpion, shrouded in Demon Qi, opened its mouth, sending a pillar of black Yuan Qi hurtling towards them.

Luo Feng did not even glance back, turning and slashing out.

Chop!

A massive saber Qi, tens of meters long, cleaved through the Demon Qi pillar, rampaging forward, slashing brutally at the previous wound and penetrating in.

Hiss...

The Red Poison Giant Scorpion’s body trembled, emitting sharp, shrill cries, its internal organs shredded to pieces by the saber Qi, blood oozing from its entire body, collapsed to the ground, its aura extinguished.

Witnessing this scene, the expressions of the three showed shock; the Red Poison Giant Scorpion, which almost cornered them earlier, was slain with just two cuts!

Among the three, Chu Yanshan, the strongest with a mid-stage Spiritual Rotation Realm cultivation, was also the most astonished. While Luo Feng’s earlier slash was not exceptionally powerful, he could easily have matched it, yet the accuracy and timing of the strike were terrifying.

To cleave through a Demon Qi pillar from such a distance and accurately strike the wound — only a saber man with exceptional eye acuity and saber technique cultivation could achieve this, something he himself was unable to do.

"I am Chu Yanshan. May I know the young hero’s name? You saved us today; it would be an honor to repay you in the future." The lean martial artist asked courteously with clasped hands.

Luo Feng replied indifferently, "My surname is Luo."

Though these people might not have heard of him, Luo Feng cautiously withheld his true name.
