“This B*tch wants to commit suicide. Don't let her get away with it!”

“That's right. We spent a lot of effort capturing her. Before we bring her back to die, we should enjoy ourselves, too. Capture her alive!”

The soldiers of Serene Spring City did not notice the two figures that had appeared on the road in the distance. They just stared at the elf girl whose arrow was pointed at her throat as she shouted. Their eyes were full of filth and evil.

After the soldiers came to an agreement, they immediately pounced on the Dark Elf girl like hungry wolves. They wanted to snatch the arrow from her hand and press her to the ground to vent their bestiality.

The girl who was paralyzed on the ground looked at her enemies that were getting closer and closer. Her eyes looked determined, but there was still some unwillingness in them..

She did not want to die just like that. She still had the blood feud of her entire family on her shoulders. However, if she did not kill herself, she would be humiliated by these b*stards. That was something that the girl could not accept!

The young girl was not afraid of death. However, she was worried that if she died just like that, she would not be able to face her dead relatives!

“Even if I die, I will turn into a fierce ghost and seek revenge from you!”

The Dark Elf girl roared with a face full of hatred. She then used both her hands to force the arrow into her throat.

However, at that moment, a pitch-black light flashed past. All the soldiers of Serene Spring City felt a cool breeze on their necks. They had the faint illusion that their heads were about to leave their bodies.

The soldiers stopped in surprise and blinked their eyes in panic. They suddenly realized that a young Dark Elf had appeared in front of them. He was holding a strange weapon in his hand. It looked like a one-sided longsword. The pitch-black blade revealed a strong killing intent, causing them to feel a chill in their hearts.

As for the young girl who was about to commit suicide, she used the little strength that she had to stab herself. However, she did not feel the pain of the arrowhead piercing her throat. Instead, she just retched as her throat had been hit.

“Cough, cough…”

The young girl laid on the ground and coughed violently until tears flowed down her face. She panted heavily for a while before she finally stopped. The arrow in her hand had been broken. The sharp arrowhead had fallen to her feet. What had hit her throat earlier was actually a neatly cut arrow shaft!

“How could this be?”

The Dark Elf girl raised her head in surprise and suddenly saw a young man standing in front of her. He was holding a sharp blade in his hand and was blocking all the soldiers of Serene Spring City that were about to charge at her.

A soldier of Serene Spring City looked at Dave warily and asked cautiously, “Kid, who are you?”

The soldiers had the strength of a level 35 creature. They could clearly feel that Dave's strength was only at level 30. However, the sudden danger earlier made them wary, therefore, they did not dare to be the slightest bit careless.

Dave frowned slightly, looked at the crowd, and asked in a deep voice, “Who are you guys? You dare to humiliate a woman in broad daylight. Didn't your City Lord teach you what the honor of a warrior is?”

The soldiers looked at Dave who was questioning them and looked at each other. They did not look surprised. They were very familiar with this kind of tone. He must be a noble son of a powerful family who ran to the wilderness and did something unjust. He was just putting on a heroic act of drawing a weapon to help!

One of the soldiers suddenly sneered, “In our Serene Spring City, the City Lord has never taught us to treat women well! Don't meddle in the business of others, or else the apostle City Lord Jessica will never let you and your family off!”

Dave's face could not help but become even colder when he heard that. He said in a deep voice, “Jessica? Jessica is already dead!”

The few soldiers were stunned for a moment before they raised their heads and laughed out loud. Their laughter was extremely wild and arrogant. Their fear toward Dave had disappeared completely.

“Hahaha, what did he say? The City Lord is dead? This is the funniest thing I've heard this year!”

“The City Lord Jessica is one of the 12 apostles. Other than the God's oracles in the Imperial City, no one else can kill her. Yet, this kid dares to slander the City Lord?”

“Slandering the City Lord is a serious crime. Let's capture him first and play with that b*tch right in front of him! Then, we'll send that b*tch back to Serene Spring City for execution. We'll find the family that this kid belongs to and extort a huge sum of money from them. If they don't cooperate, we'll report this matter to the City Lord. I guarantee that her entire family will not be able to bear the consequences!”

The few soldiers spoke one after another as they began to discuss how to deal with Dave and the young girl behind him.

Dave was furious. He did not expect Serene Spring City to be so chaotic under Jessica's rule. At the same time, he could not stand to see those scum anymore.

“If that's the case, all of you b*stards can go to hell!” said Dave coldly.

He then held the hilt of his knife with both hands and was prepared to attack.

The soldiers did not care about Dave at all. Instead, they laughed and mocked him, “Kill us? With your level 30 strength, are you dreaming?”

At this time, even the Dark Elf girl sitting behind Dave could not help but shake her head and sigh, “Your strength is too low, you can't save me at all! You'd better run for your life! I appreciate your righteous actions!”

Dave did not care about what the girl behind him had said. He just looked at the soldier who laughed the loudest, raised his blade, and slashed forward.

“World Domination!”

Dave's pitch-black blade that was more than ten meters long instantly rose into the air and slashed the soldier in half with a thunderous momentum.

The other soldiers could not help but tremble when they saw the scene. They almost lost their incontinence on the spot. They could not imagine that a level 30 creature could launch such a terrifying attack. He had even exceeded the limit of the Elf Race's ability!

“He, he, he is a blasphemer! This is not the power that the Great God Gajero gave us!”

“Then let's attack together and kill him!”

The few soldiers muttered and sighed. They gathered their courage and were prepared to attack Dave together.

Even though the strength that Dave displayed made them feel terrified, they still firmly believed they could kill him. After all, they were a group of level 35 creatures working together to fight against a blasphemer who only had the strength of a level 30 creature!

Dave saw that everyone had charged forward. However, there was not the slightest bit of fear in his eyes. He directly raised his blade to meet everyone. A long battle soon began. 

Meanwhile, the elf girl who had collapsed onto the ground was dumbstruck. Her eyes were still fixed on the corpse of the soldier who had been split into two on the ground. She could not imagine just how powerful Dave's strength was. At the same time, she was also excited and hopeful that she might actually be saved!

Although Dave's strength far exceeded his own level, he was still fighting alone against a small team of soldiers. Every soldier in the main city could rely on battle formations and cooperation to resist powerful attacks effectively. Therefore, there were no more casualties among the soldiers after that. Instead, they surrounded Dave.

“Kid, weren't you arrogant just now? Why aren't you showing off now? Show your ten-meter-long broadsword again and see if you can chop us to death!”

The few soldiers surrounded Dave and provoked him. Dave was annoyed and confused. He hesitated a little when he drew his weapon. Soon, the soldiers found his weakness and forced him to retreat.

After seeing that he was in a disadvantageous position, Dave could not help but shout, “What are you waiting for? Now is not the time to temper my combat ability. We haven't even arrived at Serene Spring City yet. I Can't get hurt!”

The soldiers who had the upper hand could not help but sneer even more when they heard Dave shouting.

“Kid, you're still too inexperienced to play tricks in front of us! Don't you think it's too late to use your power? Come, come, continue shouting. Let's see what kind of bullsh*t you can shout out!”

One of the soldiers lost his position to attack Dave and simply stopped attacking. He stood at the side and pointed at Dave as he cursed loudly. At the same time, he also insulted the person Dave was asking for help from.

“What are you talking about?”

At that moment, a cold and emotionless voice sounded from behind the soldier, as if it was a greeting from the god of death.

The soldier turned his head to look behind him in panic. The first thing he saw was a face that was obviously different from that of the Elf Race.

“Foreign race!”

The soldier instantly thought of the other party's identity. However, just as he was about to remind his companions, he realized that he could not open his mouth at all!

At the same time, he kept extending his gaze backward. Soon, he saw the entire body of the alien in front of him. He saw that the alien was wearing elf's clothing and was holding an equally strange weapon in his hand. His blade that did not look sharp seemed to have a trace of blood on it.

His back then appeared within the soldier's sight. At the same time, he realized that his head was no longer on his shoulder.

After seeing the scene, the soldier's consciousness gradually blurred, and he froze in shock.

He finally realized that his head had long been chopped off right before he died.

The group of soldiers who were surrounding and attacking Dave was currently engaged in battle. However, they suddenly realized that their comrade's head had flown into their line of sight. They could not help but stop their attacks and turn their heads to look to the side.

Dave, whose pressure had been greatly reduced, heaved a long sigh of relief. He turned his head to look at Vincent, who had just arrived, and said with a bitter expression, “Are you kidding me? I almost lost face! How can you only make a move now?”

Vincent only smiled faintly and did not say anything. He had originally wanted to leave these soldiers, who only had the strength of a level 35 creature, for Dave to practice on. However, he did not expect Dave to be so rash and reveal his strength right from the start. This resulted in him being surrounded by his opponent's all-out attack after killing one of them.

Therefore, Vincent, who was very dissatisfied with Dave's performance, wanted him to suffer a little more. He only rushed over when Dave asked for help.

“When the strong bully the weak, you need to use your full strength! And when the weak fight the strong, you must hide your final killing move! You don't even have basic common sense, and you still have the face to ask me to save you?”

Vincent reprimanded Dave in a very strict tone, but at the same time, he also looked at the soldiers who had stopped in a daze.

Dave said somewhat embarrassedly, “Don't worry, I'll be careful next time! For now, you'd better help me get rid of these guys first!”

Vincent did not make things too difficult for Dave. He pointed at the soldiers in front of him and said in a deep voice, “I'll give you a chance to make a move. All of you, attack together!”

The soldiers of Serene Spring City did not expect that they would be so unlucky on this day. A Dark Elf had appeared out of nowhere during their mission and killed one of their companions without saying a word.

When they were finally about to capture the Dark Elf, another foreign race with an unknown identity had appeared and killed another of their companions. Moreover, they could not see the specific strength of the foreign race creature in front of them, hence, they did not know if they should attack him.

However, there were still some soldiers who were brave and fearless. They raised their spears and charged towards Vincent.

Another group of soldiers chose to stand and watch. If the outsider was not very strong, they would immediately attack and fight alongside their comrades.

However, if the outsider displayed too much strength, they would turn around and flee without hesitation!

Vincent looked at the soldiers of Serene Spring City who were charging forward. He did not feel any emotions in his heart. On the contrary, it was the soldiers who stood still and watched their comrades take the risks that made Vincent feel extremely disgusted.

Their opportunistic behavior was disrespectful to their comrades, and it was the most disgraceful behavior to Vincent as he had been on the battlefield for a long time!

Vincent turned his wrist that was holding the knife gently. Streams of invisible knife aura, carrying a majestic and invincible battle intent, spread out continuously in all directions like a wave. Most of the invisible knife blades were aimed at the soldiers who were standing by the side.

The soldiers who were watching saw that their comrades had been cut into pieces by the invisible knife blades before they could even reach Vincent. They immediately realized that the alien in front of them was not an existence that they could defeat!

However, it was too late by the time they wanted to escape. A cold chill accompanied by a faint tingling pain spread throughout their bodies. The soldiers soon realized that their bodies were no longer under their control. Their consciousness gradually blurred, and their bodies turned cold. Finally, they turned into a pile of minced meat and collapsed onto the ground.

The heavily injured elf girl at the side could not help but gape in shock when she saw the scene. The soldiers, who were known as the most elite soldiers of Serene Spring City, were killed with a single slash!

Actually, the girl was not even sure if that could even be considered a slash, because Vincent had only rotated the blade lightly. He did not make any unnecessary movements!

She really did not dare to imagine what kind of damage he would cause if he slashed with all his might.

Dave walked in front of the girl and asked softly, “Who are you? Why are you here?”

The girl put away her shocked expression and turned to look at Dave. Her eyes were immediately filled with exhaustion as she muttered, “You guys…”

Just as she said those two words, the girl's eyelids sank, and she fainted.

After seeing that the girl had fainted in such a timely manner, Dave could not help but scratch his head awkwardly. He then turned to look at Vincent.

Vincent only shook his head and said unhappily, “The next time you encounter such a situation, remember to first ask if the other party's injuries are serious!”

After saying that, Vincent took the lead to walk into the valley.

Meanwhile, Dave picked up the unconscious girl on the ground and followed behind Vincent. 

When the two of them arrived in the valley, they saw corpses everywhere. A small portion of the corpses was wearing the standard armor of the Serene Spring City, while the vast majority of the corpses were wearing ordinary clothes and armor.

Dave could not help but say in surprise, “These Dark Elves look like servants and guards of some noble family, but they are being hunted down by Serene Spring City. But Jessica is not in the city, so who gave the order to hunt them down?”

Vincent shook his head and sighed, “You are also the City Lord now. Didn't you hand over power to others before you left Devil Flame City? Who knows what arrangements Jessica made before she rushed to Bright Moon City?”

After hearing that, Dave immediately understood and nodded silently.

Vincent suddenly stopped and pointed to a small hill at the side. He said, “Do you see the cave on that hill? Take her there to treat her injuries first. I'll check the battlefield again and collect some firewood. We'll camp here today!”

Dave sighed in surprise, “Here?”

He then glanced at the corpses on the battlefield, his eyes filled with fear.

Vincent did not care about Dave's reaction. He turned around and walked into the battlefield. He was busy checking every corpse to see if there were any Dark Elves who were still alive.

Dave looked at Vincent, who was walking among the dead in a calm manner. He could not help but shudder. He quickly retracted his gaze and carried the Dark Elf girl on his back as he walked up the hill not far away.

Vincent spent half a day inspecting every corpse on the battlefield. He could not find any survivors and could only sigh helplessly.

Out of respect for the warriors, he did not let the corpses be exposed in the wilderness. Instead, he used his authority to modify them. He opened a large pit at the foot of the hill and buried the corpses there. After that, Vincent walked toward the place that he had chosen for Dave earlier.

When Vincent walked into the cave, he saw that the Dark Elf girl had woken up. Her clothes were disheveled and her face was filled with anger. There was also Dave, who had a blank expression and a clear five-finger mark on his face!

Vincent asked in surprise, “What's going on?”

Dave raised his hand to touch his face and pointed at the Dark Elf girl beside him. With a hint of anger and a hint of grievance, he said, “She hit me!”

The Dark Elf girl did not show any signs of weakness. She roared at Dave, “You b*stard! Who told you to molest me?”

After hearing that, Dave could not help but say with even more grievance, “I was helping you bandage your wound! How can I be sure that your wound won't get infected if I don't take off your clothes? Moreover, I already have a woman that I like. I have no interest in you at all!”

After hearing Dave's explanation, the Dark Elf girl could not help but lower her head to look at her own clothes. She realized that the wounds under her clothes were all neatly bandaged, and she did not feel any pain at all. This meant that someone had applied painkillers to her wounds.

The girl realized that she had misunderstood Dave. However, she did not show any signs of regret. Even though he did it to save her, Dave still took off her clothes, so her slap on his face was not unjustified!

Vincent touched his nose lightly. He was not prepared to decide who was right and who was wrong. Instead, he walked in front of the girl and asked in a deep voice, “What's your name? Why are you being chased by the soldiers of Serene Spring City?”

The girl naturally remembered the scene of Vincent killing all the soldiers of Serene Spring City with a single slash of his blade. Thus, she put away her arrogant attitude toward Dave and said honestly, “My name is Melissa Carter! I'm the eldest daughter of the Carter family of Serene Spring City! As Jessica had a political disagreement with my grandfather, she gave the order to kill our entire family!”
