Chapter 146 : The Show of Dominance
In a massive courtyard, the sounds of a raging battle echoed, with screams and grunts resounding back and forth. At the center of the courtyard was a beautiful garden with various rare herbs.
In front of the herb garden were four Foundation Building realm experts fighting against a woman—Huang Yin.
Huang Yin confronted the four Foundation Building realm experts with a calm expression on her face. She moved gracefully, and her whip danced back and forth between the four.
"Ah!"
A woman was sent flying. Her long robe was torn, and a deep cut appeared on her chest. She grimaced in pain, rolling a couple of meters on the ground. The other three men halted their attack and looked at Huang Yin with a slight fear on their faces.
They had been fighting against her using their ace attacks, but nothing came close to her body. She would avoid any attack by an inch and retaliate with a more devastating attack.
It was like they were fighting more of her at the same time.
Huang Yin didn't know what was going on in their minds but was purposely delaying the battle. The four of them were only at the Early Foundation Building realm, and to her, that was nothing.
Though she was at Foundation Building realm stage 2, as a barren lander, anyone of the same realm as them was as good as dead.
'Where the hell are they?' She grumbled in her heart.
She only wanted to win this herb garden for their people and rush to find other rare resources. But since she released the news on the Spirit Comms, no one had appeared for the past ten minutes, frustrating her.
Meanwhile, the four outlanders took a couple of steps back, exchanging subtle glances while communicating through voice transmission.
The injured woman swallowed a pill and stood with some difficulty, glaring at the cold Huang Yin.
'Let's attack together.'
'Hmm, and we must not allow her to use her movement skill to escape. We must close all her escape paths,' another man responded with a deep-seated rage on his face.
Since he saw Huang Yin's beauty, he had been infatuated and wanted to conquer her. The other three men also lusted after Huang Yin's beauty; their main target was to first secure the herb garden.
As for the woman, she was furious and jealous of Huang Yin. How could she allow some weak barren lander to be prettier than her? She vowed to cut her face, making her an ugly wench.
With different motives, the four were fueled with anger toward the uncaring Huang Yin.
Just as the four were ready to attack, they heard rapid footsteps rushing toward their direction.
"Who's coming?" The woman asked with a slight frown on her face.
"I don't know. We placed our men to guard this building. Perhaps, it's one of them," another man responded.
The atmosphere was still as everyone waited patiently for the person coming.
"Clan master, sorry for keeping you waiting." A voice came from the entrance.
Clan master?
Who?
The four looked at each other before turning to look at Huang Yin.
Zimo entered the courtyard with a large, confident stride. He didn't bother looking at the four Foundation Building realm experts as he stopped a couple of feet from Huang Yin and gave a slight bow.
"Everything is good now that you're here; I'll leave them to you." Huang Yin responded casually as she prepared to leave.
"What should I do with the garden?" Zimo asked with a slight confusion.
"Of course, you need to harvest everything without destroying them," Huang Yin responded without looking back.
'What!' Zimo widened his eyes and looked at the massive garden and wanted to cry.
He couldn't help but blame himself for rushing down here. To harvest and store the herbs, he would have to stay in the garden for a whole day. What about the exploration of the treasure land? He could forget all about that.
"Stop!" A man shouted, pointing at Huang Yin.
They had been listening to their conversation with a confused expression on their faces.
However, when they realized what was going on, they were furious.
How dare she look down on them?! They were supreme elders of some clans in Baiyun City, and now, a weak Qi Refinement would be asked to fight them.
What audacity?!
Even though they all looked down on barren land, Huang Yin was a Foundation Building realm expert, and they could still accept that.
But now, a Qi Refinement warrior. They were burning with fury.
Veins protruded on their foreheads, their eyes bloodshot as they gripped their weapons tightly.
Huang Yin turned to look at the man that was trying to stop her with a cold, chilling gaze and attacked.
Her whip danced with swift speed that was impossible for the man to follow.
Bang!
The attack sent him flying, sounds of bones breaking echoed in the courtyard.
He crashed to the ground, and a mouthful of blood escaped from his mouth.
His face paled, and his breathing became erratic.
The other three looked at their injured fellow before they looked at the departed back of the cold beauty.
That attack sent shivers down their spines. The three exchanged subtle glances and realized she had been toying with them from the beginning.
They swallowed the lumps in their throats and looked at the young man in front of them.
Realizing only the young man was left in the courtyard, the three regained some of their confidence.
They sneered and pounced on Zimo without uttering a word.
Zimo looked at the three with a cold expression on his face. He unsheathed his sword from its scabbard and muttered.
"Elemental-Blood Suppression."
The air in the courtyard twisted and froze.
The three Foundation Building realm cultivators widened their eyes when they realized they couldn't move.
Their attacks froze in the air.
They looked at Zimo with fear creeping up their faces. They wanted to retreat but found it impossible.
Zimo didn't dilly-dally and took a step. He swung his sword in an arc, and three heads rolled on the ground.
The man groaning on the ground watched everything in fright and wanted nothing but to rush out of the courtyard.
However, looking at the cold, piercing gaze of Zimo, he froze.
"What are you doing? Get into the garden and start working." Zimo's cold voice woke him from his stupor.
"Yes. Yes." The man nodded quickly and forced himself to stand up, rushing into the garden as if his life depended on it.
