Chapter 621: Chapter 0406: Destroying the Royal Court (Part 2)_2 Chapter 621: Chapter 0406: Destroying the Royal Court (Part 2)_2 Soon, someone yelled, “They’re all dead, all dead. This Great Zhao cultivator is ruthless, daring to come to our Chi Huo City to kill. We absolutely cannot let him go. Sirs, let us act together, there is no need for a fair fight, we must use every means to kill this enemy, that is the righteous path.”

Immediately more Chi Di cultivators charged over. Their distances from Qi Tian varied, as did their speeds, so it was not possible for them to reach Qi Tian at the same time. They approached Qi Tian at differing paces, providing Qi Tian with the opportunity to tackle each one individually.

Although even if all of the Chi Di cultivators charged over, Qi Tian wouldn’t be afraid or worried. But if a problem could be solved easily, why make it harder on himself? He immediately rushed towards these Chi Di cultivators, his movements becoming more and more proficient, his speed also getting faster and faster. These Chi Di cultivators were no match for him, they couldn’t even manage a simple encirclement. They could only watch helplessly as Qi Tian darted around them, slipping through their grasp like a mudfish.

If that were all, they could bear it, but the issue was, not only was Qi Tian slippery, his attacks were also particularly brutal. His Red Hoop Stick seemed to possess its own eyes, continuously slaying the Chi Di cultivators. In just a short while, another twenty or thirty Chi Di cultivators were killed under Qi Tian’s stick. Without exception, they were killed by Qi Tian with one blow, they couldn’t even manage to deplete some of Qi Tian’s energy.

“Everyone be careful, this savage is ruthless and fierce,” someone warned.

“Did you see that woman? She is the savage’s companion. Why don’t we try encircling her to draw him out? Perhaps it might work.”

Immediately, some people targeted Gao Jinmei, as she seemed quite easy to deal with.

As for the attacking Chi Di cultivators, Gao Jinmei naturally wouldn’t give them a pleasant look. However, she worried that if she killed all these arrogant Chi Di cultivators, Qi Tian would have no one left to play with and take his anger out on her. Therefore, she forcibly held back from retaliating, but she also didn’t let those attacking her succeed. She flew around Qi Tian, and these Chi Di cultivators stupidly chased after her, thinking she could only fly. They waited for Gao Jinmei to tire out, and then they would decapitate her.

As a result, a strange scene appeared in the sky above Chi Huo City. Some Chi Di cultivators were following Gao Jinmei and trying to ambush her, but even more Chi Di cultivators were like moths to a flame, desperately racing to kill Qi Tian, in a bid to become the hero who could kill him.

It wasn’t that none of them were cowardly and tried to escape. On one hand, Qi Tian was simply too formidable, with his lethal speed he killed some of the escaping Chi Di cultivators. On the other hand, those who wanted to escape also had to consider whether it was worth it. Their roots were mostly in Chi Huo City, in their sect or family, with many ties preventing their escape. Even if they were nearly frightened pissless by Qi Tian’s killing spree, they had to tough it out. They might be able to escape, but what would their sect do? What about their family members? Were they to wait until Qi Tian left Chi Huo City, only to let the Golden Core experts who had witnessed their actions, exterminate their sect and family?

Qi Tian was killing these Chi Di cultivators at a quick pace, in a short time, nearly a hundred were killed. The remaining ones were either keeping their distance or chasing Gao Jinmei.

“Lead them to me, I haven’t killed enough,” Qi Tian shouted at Gao Jinmei.

Hearing this, Gao Jinmei secretly felt glad that she had not impulsively killed the Chi Di cultivators who were aiming at her. She promptly turned around and steered towards Qi Tian with the Chi Di cultivators following her. Some of the Chi Di cultivators were probably dazed, blindly pursuing Gao Jinmei. However, many more of the Chi Di cultivators were more cautious, they slowed down their flight and looking behind and below, they felt their hearts tremble, quickly keeping distance, not daring to move towards Qi Tian.

One of the Chi Di cultivators realized that their combined strength was no longer enough to surround and kill Qi Tian, so he bellowed out: “Where are all our seniors at? This man from Great Zhao, like a savage wolf, intrudes into our Chi Huo City wreaking havoc, will you seniors just stand by and watch? Where is the dignity of us, the Chi Di cultivators? Where is our pride? Where is our honor?”

These challenging questions echoed throughout Chi Huo City. Soon, Chi Di cultivators at the early Foundation Establishment Stage and the Qi Cultivation Period also started shouting, urging the Half-step Golden Core from their sects or families to join the battle. As for urging the Golden Core powerhouses to fight, they didn’t have the guts for that.

Among the Chi Di cultivators were a few with particularly hot temperaments. They had already had intentions to join the fight. Now, when the entire city was calling for them to join the battle, these few Half-step Golden Cores could no longer wait. They flew out from their hiding places and stood proudly in the air, angrily looking at Qi Tian.

“Which of you sirs will come at me first?” One of the Half-step Golden Cores, due to his status, was unwilling to team up with others to encircle Qi Tian. From his part, he not only wanted to fight Qi Tian himself but also expected the other Half-step Golden Cores to each fight one-on-one as well.

But the other Half-step Golden Cores were not as naïve as him. They had witnessed with their own eyes the ferocity that Qi Tian displayed when he killed the Chi Di cultivators, treating the killing of those at the Foundation Establishment Peak and late Foundation Establishment Stage as if he was butchering chickens or slaughtering dogs with no effort. Objectively speaking, if they were to swap places with Qi Tian, they would find themselves incapable of doing so.

To deal with such a fierce character, even if you don’t surround him and attack, would you even think about fighting one-on-one? Is there rust in your brain?

The other Half-step Golden Cores didn’t pay attention to their self-overrated fellow who didn’t have much actual strength. They exchanged glances and then swooped towards Qi Tian.

Qi Tian just gave a cold laugh and said nothing. He once again held his Red Hoop Stick and flew towards them. He swung his Red Hoop Stick like a wheel in his hands. The few Half-step Golden Cores, not knowing their limitations, continued to charge forward. As a result, they didn’t have to put in much effort before they suffered the same fate as the cultivators of the Qi Cultivation Period from Chi Di. They were all swatted away by Qi Tian’s Red Hoop Stick, killed on the spot, without a single one left.

None of the Chi Di cultivators thought that Qi Tian could kill the Half-step Golden Core so easily. They were all taken aback, only now feeling true fear. Usually, one Half-step Golden Core would be able to deal with many of them, a feat they already found to be extreme. But they didn’t expect that such a master cultivator had no chance to defend themselves against Qi Tian. Could Qi Tian be any more fearsome? He was simply not human.

The terrifying power of Qi Tian thoroughly deterred all the Chi Di cultivators present. No longer did they dare to take action rashly or even encircle Qi Tian. They all took their distance, not daring to approach but also not daring to turn and run. After all, this was their home, their sect or family base. Where could they run to?

Now, it seemed like that only a Golden Core powerhouse could deal with Qi Tian. In Chi Di, as well as in Great Zhao, Golden Core powerhouses were rare top masters who would not show up casually. Many cultivators at the Qi Cultivation Period and Foundation Establishment Stage might spend their entire lives without having the opportunity to witness the glory of a Golden Core powerhouse.

But at this point, if the Golden Core powerhouses did not come out, they would not be able to stop Qi Tian. Would the Golden Core powerhouses just watch Qi Tian wreak havoc in their Chi Huo City? If so, the face of the Chi Di cultivators would be completely lost.

At the critical moment, a figure slowly flew up from the ground. He appeared to be of an older age, looking to be in his fifties.
