Chapter 366: Killing Through the Past

"Retreat? What are you thinking?"

Qin Jian's expression was cold; he gripped the Silver Dragon Spear tightly, and silver currents suddenly surged all over his body: "Tell me, in which direction is the Hell Slaughter Arena?"

"That, that way..."

The Black-Veiled Woman was somewhat intimidated by his murderous appearance: "You, what are you trying to do?"

Hu Liena had already silently drawn her short sword and stood by Qin Jian's side.

"Nothing much..."

Pfft... Bang, bang, bang!

Qin Jian raised the Silver Dragon Spear and thrust it out, instantly dismembering the man nearby who was forcing himself on another, then followed through with a sweep, killing the entire group of people who had been watching with lecherous excitement.

"I just intend to kill my way through..."

The power of the Spirit was absorbed by the Silver Dragon Spear, continuously repairing his damaged Spirit.

Two or three who had been missed raised their weapons, intending to attack Qin Jian, but a flash of light from the short sword cut through their throats with ease.

Qin Jian and Hu Liena stood side by side in a pool of blood, red glints gradually intensifying in the depths of their eyes.

In an environment like this, coupled with continuous killing, the Killing Aura would naturally condense, subsequently affecting one's state of mind.

The Black-Veiled Woman had wanted to warn them that if they took the initiative to provoke others, the protection for newcomers would be void, but at this moment, she was stunned by the scene before her.

Those who could act recklessly in the Inner City were no ordinary people; everyone here was proficient in the way of killing, and at the same time, they were not so easy to kill.

Just like the moment Qin Jian took out the Silver Dragon Spear, the people around had already begun to grow wary.

And when he suddenly made his move, those people also fought back, but they had not expected this newcomer's strength to be terrifying to such a degree.

But even knowing they would surely die, they still launched attacks in the end, yet it served no purpose at all.

What does this signify? It signifies that Qin Jian was not attacking recklessly, but had planned it out long ago, including the counter-attack methods of these people.

Even the few that he missed were exactly the ones best suited for Hu Liena to assassinate.

Thus, a perfect coordination.

"This kind of combat awareness is too terrifying..."

The Black-Veiled Woman followed silently behind the two, watching them strike from time to time; in just a short moment, they had actually killed nearly thirty people within a hundred meters.

Blood flowed like a river, and the stench was overwhelming.

Countless amounts of Spirit power gathered onto the Silver Dragon Spear, and Qin Jian's Spirit damage had already recovered by half.

If he were in the outside world, he would need a full year.

"The Killing Aura has already begun to affect your temperament; stop in time."

The girl's voice was faint but carried a trace of concern, and Qin Jian nodded.

"Kill that man! Grab that woman! Let's all have some fun together!"

"They intend to kill their way through; they won't let anyone they see go, including us!"

"Everyone, join forces!"

"......"

But at this moment, on the road leading to the Hell Slaughter Arena, over a hundred people had gathered, all facing Qin Jian and his companion.

"This is why... no matter how strong one is in Slaughter City, it is hard to escape death."

The Black-Veiled Woman appeared eerily behind Qin Jian and his companion, whispering: "Because if you kill too excessively, there will naturally be numerous Fallen Ones who unite to deal with you. This time it is over a hundred people; after a few more times, it might be over a thousand..."

"And this kind of attack is endless. Even if you kill one wave or two, there will be a third and a fourth, until they kill you."

Qin Jian frowned: "Then, does the Inner City have a place for us to stay? A place where there is a truce?"

"Yes."

The Black-Veiled Woman affirmed: "As long as you obtain one victory in the Hell Slaughter Arena, you can stay here for another year. Within that year, you will be granted a residence, and no one is allowed to attack those who have entered their residence to rest..."

"And the residences are also graded; the higher the number of consecutive wins, the more luxurious the residence obtained, and the daily food will also be richer," the woman added.

Qin Jian nodded and lifted the Silver Dragon Spear in his hand: "It seems going to the Hell Slaughter Arena first is the right choice. Nana, let's go."

"Okay."

Hu Liena said softly and walked by his side.

The two walked together toward the hundred-plus people ahead.

The Black-Veiled Woman quietly retreated, falling nearly a hundred meters behind the two; she did not want to be caught in the crossfire of the siege.

As Qin Jian and his companion walked over step by step as if nothing were the matter, the hundred-plus Fallen Ones also grew somewhat restless.

"Kill him!"

One person at the very front saw that Qin Jian had already reached them, and unable to hold back, he let out a roar and charged over with a machete.

With someone taking the lead, the others naturally grew restless.

"Pfft—"

But Qin Jian just thrust out casually, and a silver-white spear light shot out, directly piercing the attacker's chest and pinning him to the ground.

The Fallen Ones, who had already taken two steps forward, were stunned and stopped in their tracks for a moment.

The smell of blood grew heavier...

"Drip... drip... drip..."

Bloodstains slowly dripped from the Silver Dragon Spear, falling onto the ground one by one.

Even though the sound was not loud, it was clearly heard by everyone.

That blood-red color bloomed on the ground, striking straight at their hearts.

Qin Jian just like that brought Hu Liena into the group of Fallen Ones, walking past them one by one.

The hundred-plus people looked at each other, filled with fear, yet unwilling to be the first to attack and become a target, causing them to remain motionless for the time being.

No one here was an idiot; if someone charged to the front, they wouldn't mind picking up the scraps from behind.

However, if the opponent's strength is too great and no one dares to step up, they won't be crazy enough to throw their lives away.

Thus, a stalemate ensued.

But at the end of the path, a dozen or so Fallen Ones were exchanging glances.

The breakthrough, it is at this moment!

"Kill! ——"

When nearing the end, it is human nature to have a subconscious moment of relaxation.

And this group of surrounding Fallen Ones was highly experienced; when Qin Jian and his companion were about to walk out, those last dozen people attacked together to intercept them.

In this way, the awkward situation of no one daring to attack was broken, and the dozen people attacking together also avoided being killed in one blow like that.

Others had already begun to swarm up; as long as they blocked Qin Jian's first spear strike, there would be a continuous stream of attacks following behind.

"A well-calculated plan, unfortunately..."

A blood-red light flared intensely in Qin Jian's eyes: "You all underestimate me too much."

"Sss, sss, sss..."

Without hesitation, he swept his spear horizontally!

Over a dozen spear beams burst forth simultaneously, like scattered sharp arrows, piercing through the dozen people who had struck first around him.

"Clang, clang, clang!"

Meanwhile, the attacks from other Fallen Ones behind were blocked in time by Hu Liena, and Qin Jian turned around at this moment, sweeping his spear horizontally once more to drive back those sneak attackers.

The attacks that should have surged up like a tide were suddenly interrupted at this moment, because nearly twenty corpses lay on the ground around Qin Jian and his companion in an instant.

How could they still fight like this? It was clearly throwing their lives away!

The remaining nearly eighty Fallen Ones all reached a similar conclusion in their hearts, and thus, they all stopped in their tracks.

"Nana, let's go."

Qin Jian turned around, not even glancing at those people behind him, and walked straight away, slowly stepping onto the Hell Slaughter Arena.

Before entering, he also casually shook the Dragon Spear in his hand.

Instantly, the bloodstains that had been slowly sliding off were all scattered, and the Silver Dragon Spear returned to its pristine, stainless appearance once again.

Hu Liena glanced at him and tried to mimic him by flicking the short sword in her hand, but the bloodstains remained stuck to it...

"Hmph."

Her cool factor vanished in an instant; she huffed in annoyance, took out a cloth, and wiped the short sword clean.

Throughout this entire process, the dozens of people behind them remained silent as cicadas in winter, none daring to move.
