The news quickly spread throughout the Great Qin Kingdom, rumored to be about a powerful being from the Heavenly Realm who had descended and taken a glance at the Thundercloud Valley before shaking their head and leaving. From that moment on, no one dared to approach the area. After all, if even a Heavenly Realm expert could do nothing here, it was subtly ingrained in everyone's minds that this place was extremely dangerous.
Moreover, Thundercloud Valley was situated deep within the Desolate Mountain Range, where numerous Second Tier and Third-Order Beasts roamed. Even Zhenjing experts could find themselves in peril if they ventured into this territory.
Yun Fan carefully inquired further and pieced together the backstory. Zhao Yanran was the concubine of Xie Long, the leader of the Mighty Tiger Mercenary Group. The Mighty Tiger Mercenary Group had long been active in the Desolate Mountain Range, hunting beasts and searching for Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures. Occasionally, they engaged in unsavory dealings, committing acts of murder and arson, even hunting down other cultivators.
Recently, the Black Tiger Mercenary Corps had been planning their usual raids when they unexpectedly learned from one individual that there was a powerful cave within Thundercloud Valley, which supposedly contained a token. Consequently, Leader Xie Yunlong led his men to seek out this so-called powerful cave.
However, Zhao Yanran caught wind of this information and was seized by greed. She plotted to monopolize the treasures within the cave for herself and leave Xie Yunlong once she grew stronger. Taking advantage of Xie Yunlong's lack of vigilance, she used her charm to seduce one of his subordinates and stole the token.
The two then fled but were soon discovered by the Mighty Tiger Mercenary Group, who sent people after them. After several days of evading capture in the Desolate Mountain Range, they encountered trouble, leading to the current situation.
Yun Fan felt a sense of trepidation; the Mighty Tiger Mercenary Group was formidable, boasting two Zhenjing experts: Leader Xie Long at the second layer of Zhenjing and Vice Captain Li Ying at the first layer. They also had numerous mercenaries at the Refining Body Realm level. With such strength, Yun Fan knew he stood no chance; encountering them would likely mean certain death.
Beside him, Zhao Yanran's eyes sparkled with allure as she displayed an enchanting demeanor. Her rosy lips parted slightly as her sweet voice reached him. "My dear, I have already taken care of everything. Can you let me go now?"
Yun Fan nodded nonchalantly. Seeing his agreement, Zhao Yanran's face broke into a radiant smile, her excitement palpable. In her heart, however, she plotted fiercely that once she left this place, she would spread word of this discovery far and wide—no one would get their hands on her treasures.
"You little pretty boy, I have humbled myself for you, yet you look down on me. If that's the case, then I can only send you to your death."
Zhao Yanran immediately stood up, twisting her slender waist as she prepared to leave. Suddenly, a sharp pain shot through her abdomen. She lowered her head slightly and saw a bloodied long sword protruding from her body, blood gushing out in a torrent.
Her eyes filled with disbelief as she turned her head slightly to look back, only to meet Yun Fan's cold gaze.
A murmur escaped his lips, "Don't blame me for being ruthless; I only believe that the dead won't speak."
Zhao Yanran's eyes showed a glimmer of pleading, her lips parted slightly as if she wanted to say something. However, her consciousness faded completely from her mind. Her head tilted, and she lost all signs of life.
After killing her, Yun Fan showed no emotion. He could tell at a glance that Zhao Yanran was nothing but trouble; letting her go would only invite more problems. It was better to eliminate her directly.
He shook the blood off the sword before putting it away in his storage bag. Looking around at the bodies scattered on the ground, he began to search through them, finding over a dozen storage bags which he stuffed into his arms.
