***************************************************************
Tang Tian swept Corvus Constellation like a locust, having the two sound type martial artists, it was easy and skilfully done. Stone gravel beasts were weak to sound type martial artists, even the stone gravel beast kings, were no exceptions.
Although no one knew why Tang Tian was extinguishing the stone gravel beasts, but since it was the request of their employer, everyone did their best.
The results of the battle was remarkable, the entire Corvus Constellation, were combed by them once.
While Crane and Xie Qing were following their plan to go to every business to purchase the Corvus Gold.
Their movements were extremely smooth. Although Corvus Gold was one of the local special product of Corvus Constellation, but many of the buyers had set that the price was cheap. Corvus Gold transaction history was very long, but in people’s eyes, it was just a metal slightly better than ordinary metals.
So when someone was anxious to procure a large amount of Corvus Gold, and that they were paying 15% more than usual, all the small businesses were immediately excited, and quickly emptied their warehouse to sell all the Corvus Gold.
In 5 days, Crane and Xie Qing returned to the Xie family sword village, bringing along with them roughly 2000 kg of corvus gold.
Adding on the 3000 kg of corvus gold gained from the fights, the total corvus gold they had was 10000 kg, the total value reaching an astronomical figure of 5 billion!
Seeing the mountain of Corvus Gold, Tang Tian looked like he was looking at a mountain of Star Coins!
With the stupid smile on his face, he started to count with his fingers, how many gold spirit cards he could purchase, how many star rocks he could purchase, how many star treasures he could have.
At this rate, I can quickly become stronger, I can quickly reach Southern Cross Constellation, and quickly find Qian Hui!
It will definitely be like that!
Tang Tian fiercely clenched his fists.
******************************************************
Holding onto the star currency card, Wu Guang and the rest could not contain their excitement. In five days, they earned 5 million star coins. Such good things do not happen so easily. Also, in these five days, everybody seemed to be travelling like tourists. Other than the first day when everyone was slightly anxious, the other days, it was Magic Flute and Blind Chord Old Man working.
The power of Sound type martial techniques have been used to its maximum these few days.
Facing the weak stone gravel beasts, sound type martial techniques were like harvesting lives.
The scene of them killing each other to the point that there was nothing left standing, made people’s blood run cold.
Wu Guang sneered: “Little brother Tang, any future dealings, you must take care of me ok! Relax, your big brother Wu has a good reputation, and will definitely make you satisfied!”
“I currently have another business proposal, not sure if Big Brother Wu is interested?” Tang Tian said: “My friend opened a shop in the Spirit Region, and require a few experts to be on site, for the wage, is 500 thousand a month. Old Blind Man will be there to guard the shop too.”
Wu Guang shook his head: “I am a wild person, and am not suitable to stay in a place for too long, but all the brothers I know, there will definitely be one who is interested. Little brother Tang, what kind of martial artist do you require?”
“What kind of martial artist?” Tang Tian’s heart trembled: “A mechanical martial artist would be best.”
“Mechanical martial artist?” Wu Guang was taken aback: “Little brother Tang’s request is so random, all these years the number of powerful mechanical martial artists are so pitiful, but just nice I know of one, who is not in the Group. But, Little brother Tang, the fighting powers of the mechanical martial artist, are very dangerous. This brother of mine although his standard is not too bad, but you know of the standards of the current mechanical martial artists, so he has not achieved much success. But his standard, is very strong, and many people in the Group had sparred with him before.”
Upon hearing that, Tang Tian did not hesitate: “Then let’s have him!”
“Good, let me leave him a message!” Wu Guang happily said: “He have been rather free lately too.”
“Sorry to trouble you Big Brother Wu!” Tang Tian expressed his gratitude.
“Little Brother Tang is a person worth knowing, this little brother of mine doesn’t really know how to act as a person, so little brother Tang please bear with him!” Wu Guang exclaimed.
Tang Tian was immediately curious upon hearing that.
Upon finishing their mission and receiving their star currency card, Wu Guang and his friends bade farewell and left.
At night, Xie QIing found Tang Tian, his eyes were red, as though he had been through an intense psychological battle.

“Master! I am heading to the Stone Sword Peak!”
Xie Qing’s words surprised everyone.
“Head to the Stone Sword Peak?” Tang Tian was stunned.
“Yes!” Xie Qing’s blurting of this secret, made him relieved, and his tone became more relaxed: “After attaining the cry of the Guardian Heart Sword, I faintly sense the beckoning from the Stone Sword Peak. Two days ago, this beckoning became even stronger! It is calling for me!”
Tang Tian’s eyes lit up, and immediately thought: “Don’t tell me the Demon Sealing Sword is calling for you?”
“I don’t know.” Xie Qing shook his head: “I can only feel that it is coming from Stone Sword Peak, it is calling me to go up.”
“Haha, that is a good thing!” Tang Tian was excited: “It must definitely be the Demon Sealing Sword recognizes you! It definitely knows of your hard work, quickly go quickly go, just leave this place to us!”
Suddenly, Crane’s cold voice sounded out: “Who’s that?”
Tang Tian’s expression turned cold, without saying a word, he rushed out.
“Hahahaha! This little brat’s hearing power is not too bad!” A figure floating in the air, slowly becoming brighter, a red flame enveloping his entire figure.
One after another light balls lit up in the sky. All the different colored light balls, with figures inside, were either fat or skinny, but all of them had a stern and indifferent look on their faces.
A fierce and terrifying Qi, exploded out from the sky, enveloping the entire place.
Bell’s face changed: “Five Hitmen Squad!”
“Ho, never did I think that there will be someone who recognize us from such a remote and poor village.” The big statured man who was presumably the leader laughed, his gaze was deep and stern, with a beard similar to iron wires, covering his entire face. He was half naked, on his chest was a tattoo of a five colored Qilin.
The big statured man suddenly threw something to the group.
Hu!
Two heads were flung in front of everyone, it was actually Guo Dong and Guo Yu, both of their eyes were staring intently, as though they had seen something scary, and died without blinking.
“Where is the Demon Sealing Sword?” The big statured man laughed, looked around: “Please don’t tell me that you all don’t know.”
On the road they stumbled onto Guo Dong and Guo Yu who were running away in a panic, they merely wanted to rob them, but they did not think that they would receive news about the Demon Sealing Sword from Guo Dong.
A substantial amount of killing intent, rumbled and torrented out.
Bell, Xie Qing, Blind Chord Old Man’s face changed, the killing intent was tyrannical and barbaric, as though it was coming from an ancient beast that was born, causing their bodies to freeze up, and their minds gone into a blank.
“One, Two, Three, Four, Five.” Tang Tian pointed at the light balls, and counted them.
“To the mountain top to beat the tiger.” Bing’s voice suddenly came out from Sky Tiger who appeared from the dark, who did not think and continued Tang Tian’s words.
(TN: This is an actual children song in chinese, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SZ4L70d5PsA)
Tiger: “…..”
“Tiger is not at home.” Ling Xu picked up his spear, with a sneer he walked out.
Tiger: “…..”
Crane who was initially quiet with some perspiration on his forehead: “So sorry, that parable… what book did it come from?”
The three of them turned and glared at him.
The big statured man who was the leader squinted his eyes, the cold qi aura, was extremely pressing, and a sneer appeared on his face, he playfully said: “That’s good, I like brave people, the braver the person, the more fun it is to kill him.”
Tang Tian lowered his voice and spoke to Xie Qing who was dumbstruck: “You go to Stone Sword Peak, we will help you block them.”
Xie Qing regained his senses, his pale face was filled with fright: “But…”
It was the Five Hitmen Squad, the Five Hitmen Squad! They were a group of people who killed without blinking, and did not have any shred of humanity in them. Their strongest member, had a Heaven Road List rank which was far from the war zone of the 100, their leader King Qilin, was at an astonishing rank of 9736 on the Heaven Road List! Putting the fire crow headsman Guo Dong was like a small kid compared against the Five Hitmen Squad.
They were people with countless bounties on their heads, but no one had succeeded, so their bounty had rolled to an astronomical figure that no one knew.
They are the most ruthless and fiercest killing machines!
They…
You all will get killed….
“Don’t talk nonsense! Quickly go!” Tang Tian growled softly.
Xie Qing’s face was pale, his lips shivering nonstop, as he stared in despair at Tang Tian.
You all will get killed…
His brain was filled with these words.
Seeing Xie Qing’s expression, Tang Tian unknowingly had a demonic fire suddenly coming out, his eyes becoming bigger, his left hand as quick as lightning grabbing onto Xie Qing’s collar, suddenly pulling him closer, his right palm slapping slaps, and shouted: “Asshole! Wake up! You Coward! This is scaring you? You want to be the cause of the death of your village? Idiot! You better be fast! You dare to dilly dally, i will break your legs! Scram!”
Finished, he used force and threw Xie Qing behind him.
Xie Qing flew out ten metres, he landed staggeringly, his face was stunned, with a few blood traces on his face. He stared blankly at that back view, his eyes turning red, without saying anything, he turned around and ran towards Stone Sword Peak like a maniac.
You guys… no matter what… you cannot be killed by them!
The night wind blew onto his face, the boiling tears forced out of his eye sockets.
Noticing Xie Qing frantically running, King Qilin’s gaze turned cold, he raised his palm gently towards Xie Qing’s back.
Weng!
A gloomy sound of air ripping apart sounded out, intimidating people’s heart.
An extremely straight ray of red light beam flew out, aiming straight for Xie Qing.
Suddenly, dazzling sparks suddenly came flying up from below, accurately blocking the red beam.
Bang!
The two congealed forms of True Power, crashed into each other uglily, immediately forming an explosion.
The wave of the explosion swept out like a hurricane, Xie Qing who was running madly was swept away, falling down with sand flying into his mouth, he struggled to climb back up, without saying anything, he continued running.
Quick! I need to be quicker! My movements need to be faster!
Why…. why are you all willing to help me this much….
********************************************************
“Eh?” King Qilin was slightly surprised that this lad managed to fend off his finger.
That was interesting
“Don’t leave one alive.”
His nonchalant voice resonated in the air and King Qilin disappeared.
Tang Tian’s eyes lit up. He snorted as his Fire Scythe Ghost Claw had coincidentally, matched with his opponent’s blazing red fire fist.
A transparent Qi burst out.
Bang Bang Bang!
The two of them struck quickly. Waves of transparent Qi continuously exploded in between the two of their fists and claws.
King Qilin’s face congealed. His opponent’s strength was much greater than he imagined. To meet force with force, his opponent was not at a disadvantage.
He was slightly hard to deal with.
He scanned around to see the others. His face involuntarily showing surprise and shock. From his perspective, he was not at all on the upper hand.
Where did these guys come from…
**********************************************************
The guy in front of Crane was tall and skinny. On his chest, was a tattoo of a malevolent python. He had a pair of carbon black daggers in his hands. Occasionally, he would move himself oddly that one would be caught off guard. He was the Python Fang in the Five Hitmen Squad.
But Crane was still as calm as ever, the Crane Sword in his hand along with the sheathe, sword after sword appeared.
Beams of white sword auras were like the Qis of the crane.
His posture was graceful like a big black crane, lively and confident. He moved with silence, and in a split second, his body shifted. Every time Crane had a deeper understanding of the Crane Body Energy, Crane’s power would increase rapidly. To be well prepared was his sturdy foundation since he was a young kid. He spent a lot of hardword and sweat to produce such effects.
Emerging from Python Fang were faded shadows. They circled around him constantly, waiting for an opportunity.
One quiet while the other moved, they were clearly adopting two very distinct different attacking styles as though they were hitting a balance.
Python Fang’s face got serious as he squinted his eyes which were filled with joy, but in his heart, he was surprised.
So Strong!
Although both parties were still trying to figure out their cultivation level but he already knew he had met a strong enemy.
But, it had been long since he confronted someone worth fighting.
Python Fang revealed his eerie white fangs.
******************************************************
The Pointed Sea Spear in Ling Xu’s hands, slowly expanded out.
As cold as stars, it sprinkled out, enveloping the opponent inside.
His opponent was a short stout man with a crocodile tattoo on his chest, he was called Old Croc, his entire body was fierce looking and extremely barbaric. In his hands he held two short maces, brandishing them out and spinning, he looked like a cyan storm whistling, Ling Xu’s spear tip was blocked by the wind formed, sparks flying everywhere.
But Ling Xu was not the least bit dispirited, as he bellowed out, the Pointed Sea Spears continuing.
“Kill kill kill kill!”
Ling Xu’s pupils were like two round blazes, his silver hair fluttering wildly, his ten fingers which were as tough as metal rotated violently, causing sounds like the ripping apart of the air to come out, lingering on in the ears.
Ever since he defeated and woke up from the bedevilment, his heightened state of mind, allowed his power to rise.
The Pointed Sea Spear became more fine, layers of layers produced, wave after wave attacking his opponent.
Ding Ding Ding!
The concentrated attacks was like the rain, due to the countless gales formed, countless sparks were produced. Old Croc who was surrounded by the sparks suddenly opened his eyes wide, he heard Ling Xu’s bellows, and he started sneering.
Seems he cannot last long.
This was a plain and clear reason in learning martial techniques, his opponent was a rookie, and to continuously release such a high rate of attack, he would not last long.
Old Croc was like a crocodile hiding in the marshes, patiently waiting for the chance to strike.
***************************************************************
“Mechanical martial artist?” a young man with an Arctic fox painted on his body smiled. He was the Artic Fox from the Five Hitmen Squad. He looked suave and handsome but there was a tinge of evilness from the way he smiled.
“That’s too bad. How can a rubbish mechanical martial artist be of any help to my accomplishments? If this is considered an accomplishments, I would be a laughing stock.” Arctic Fox mumbled to himself: “Although you look like a tiger, aye, To the mountain top to beat the tiger, don’t tell me the one being beaten is you?”
Suddenly, Tiger said to Bing: “I’m slightly angry now.”
After fighting for the entire night, and not being comfortable, even puppets would be angry, and the always calm Tiger finally raged out.
Bing: “….”
Poor Bing did not know how to comfort Tiger who was emotionally hurt in such a short time. Instead, he was stumped. Today, Tiger had suffered too many blows…
“I want to kill him!” Tiger’s tone was cold.
Bing broke out into a cold sweat it was the first time master Tiger was offended all because of one song…
But, Bing’s wretchedness was obviously not affected. It was as though he did not have the intention to stop him. Without even hesitating, he added fuel to the fire: “tsk, listen to him, he’s merely a fox and yet, he dares to challenge the pride of a tiger. Tiger, I don’t know how you think. Anyway, if he was mocking me, I would not be able to take it.”
Roar!
The tiger leaped high up and drew an icy cold blue radiance and brought light into the darkness.
