“Pang Qing?”
Su Han looked at Pang Qing in disbelief—not because Pang Qing was still alive, but because he didn’t have a single injury throughout his entire body.
“Hahaha… Young Master Su Han, I have survived!” Pang Qing laughed.
“Best to stay alive.” Su Han nodded.
Pang Qing examined Su Han. He couldn’t help his shock when he saw that Su Han was also safe and sound.
How was it possible for Su Han to be unscathed when he had had so many fiend beasts chasing after him?
Young Master Su Han is probably a lot stronger than I have imagined, Pang Qing thought to himself.
“Wait here and don’t go anywhere.”
Immediately after saying these words, he opened his bag.
Clang!
Immediately, crystal cores of many different kinds and types began radiating with light.
Pang Qing’s pupils constricted. “These… these are all fiend crystals?”
“Yup.” Su Han nodded.
“What the hell!”
Pang Qing choked hard on his saliva. “How many fiend crystals are in there? A few dozen? More than a hundred?”
“Around a hundred? These are all grade-one fiend crystals,” said Su Han.
“Damn. With this many fiend crystals, you can probably get tens of thousands of gold pieces!”
Pang Qing couldn’t believe it. “Young Master Su Han, you… you didn’t get these from killing fiend beasts, did you?”
Su Han turned around to look Pang Qing in the eye, smiling slightly. “If I said they fell from the sky, would you believe me?”
“However… However, there’s simply too many of them! You killed a hundred grade-one fiend beasts?”
Pang Qing was shocked out of his mind. Even for him, he could only flee when being attacked by so many fiend beasts. Let alone killing a hundred of them, even killing one would be difficult.
“All done!”
Su Han didn’t reply to Pang Qing. He simply waved his hand as he calmly said, “Come here and stand beside me.”
Pang Qing went and obediently stood there without saying another word.
“Young Master Su Han, if I can escape from here, I’ll let you in on a big secret!” Pang Qing suddenly said.
“Oh?”
Su Han looked at Pang Qing and said with a smile, “Alright, I’ll consider it as your payment to me for saving your life.”
“Yes!” Pang Qing nodded vigorously.
Thump thump thump…
The ground started to shake—the massive horde of fiend beasts had already caught up to them.
“They really want us dead at all costs, huh? Well, unfortunately, that won’t happen.” Su Han shook his head slightly as he looked at the fiend beasts.
Pang Qing didn’t know what Su Han was up to, but standing there and looking at the fiend beasts charge at them felt like he was awaiting death. His body began to shiver helplessly.
“Young Master, they’re about to get here…” Seeing that the fiend beasts were extremely close, Pang Qing couldn’t help opening his mouth to speak.
“I know.” Su Han nodded.
Pang Qing involuntarily rolled his eyes. If you know, then what the hell are you doing, just standing here?
The fiend beasts seemed to be extremely angry. They roared as they caused the ground to shake endlessly.
The fiend beasts charged in from all directions. In an instant, the fiend beasts surrounded the two, only ten meters away from where they were standing.
Pang Qing’s eyes opened wide as he felt somewhat regretful at following Su Han and standing there.
Being trampled by these fiend beasts meant death without a complete corpse.
“Die!”
At that moment, Su Han’s loosely shut eyes suddenly opened, and a ray of cold light erupted from them.
He suddenly bent his back and furiously slammed his two hands onto the ground as his clothes fluttered and flapped about.
Hum…
After that, a dome of light surged out from the ground with the two in the center.
Rumble…
At that instant, the charging fiend beasts savagely crashed into the light dome.
Large quantities of fresh blood erupted. It splattered across the shield of light like red water, but not a single drop spilled onto the two of them.
“This…”
Pang Qing was flabbergasted.
Pang Qing clearly saw spikes emerge from the light shield where the fiend beasts had crashed onto it. The spikes acted like daggers and pierced into various parts of the fiend beasts’ bodies.
Almost instantly, all of the grade-one fiend beasts in the front fell. The fiend beasts in the back didn’t know what had happened in the front, and continued to charge in.
Wave after wave, the fiend beasts made the light shield tremble, but it didn’t crack.
“What kind of technique is this?”
Pang Qing was overcome with waves of shock. He had never seen someone with such stunning abilities in all his long life.
“Formation,” Su Han said indifferently.
“Formation?”
Pang Qing paused for a while—this was the first time he had heard the word. In the entire Martial Dragon Continent, no one knew what a formation was.
Su Han inherited the memory from the past ‘Su Han’. Naturally, he also knew that the concept of formations did not exist on the Martial Dragon Continent.
As the two spoke, all of the grade-one fiend beasts died. Among them were also some bodies of grade-two fiend beasts.
At this moment, the fiend beasts outside the light shield now reduced to a countable level. They had lost their overwhelming numbers and might, and only around a hundred of them remained—all of them grade-two fiend beasts.
The grade-two fiend beasts’ intelligence was slightly higher than grade-one fiend beasts, though not by far. However, they could instinctively tell that if they continued rushing in, they would be shredded into pieces by the golden shield of light.
“Not going to charge anymore?”
Su Han’s eyes darted about slightly as his hands extended and pushed a little bit to the front.
Hum…
With Su Han’s push, the golden shield of light started to move. Pang Qing even thought that the two of them, as well as the dirt beneath his feet, also began moving.
This was because no matter how far the shield of light stretched, the two of them always remained standing in the center.
As the shield of light moved, the fiend beasts started to let out sharp shrieks, appearing to be in extreme horror. The redness in their eyes even lessened slightly.
Very soon, all the fiend beasts fled the scene and disappeared.
“Did we survive… just like that?” Pang Qing mumbled to himself.
“Would you prefer to die instead?” Su Han said with a smile.
Looking at the mounds of piled-up bodies, Pang Qing still couldn’t bring himself to believe it.
“It’s lucky they fled. Otherwise, the formation wouldn’t last, since all of the spiritual energy from the fiend crystals has already been used up,” said Su Han.
The hundred grade-one fiend crystals saved from before were for the formation.
By now, these fiend crystals had lost all of their radiance and turned into tough rocks.
“There were rumors that when the Xiao Clan’s first daughter came to you with accusations, you weren’t too happy about that, and said that you’d wipe out their entire clan and everything. We all thought you were just boasting then, but now I can see it really happening.”
Pang Qing now spoke to Su Han in a respectful tone. His shock was plain on his face.
In Pang Qing’s opinion, let alone attacking the Xiao Clan, if they had laid this formation in the Su Estate, no attackers would be able to get in.
“The formation works well against fiend beasts since they are unintelligent. However, it’s not enough to deal with the Xiao Clan,” said Su Han.
This was the truth. However, he didn’t fear the Xiao Clan, because this ‘spike killing formation’ was only the weakest formation he knew.
“Let’s collect the fiend crystals. Although the bodies can also fetch a good price, we won’t be able to carry them.”
“Haha… Let’s get on it!”
Pang Qing laughed as he pulled out a dagger hanging at his waist in excitement and began to dissect the bodies of the fiend beasts.
