Questioned by Xiao Tian, the experts who intended to twist facts originally were suddenly reminded that they were still holding weapons. They quickly withdrew them, but couldn't utter a definite "yes" no matter what.

Who's ever seen someone trying to reason with a knife in hand? There's a saying that within the range of a cannon, all are truth, but if understood this way, it seems as though they lost the reasoning argument.

"Even if we weren't trying to reason with you, we didn't intend to take your life!" Finally, someone couldn't resist standing up to refute.

"That's a fair point!" Xiao Tian showed a smile of appreciation: "So, what if I refuse to hand over the treasure?"

"At most, we'll just injure you and then take it away, but we definitely won't take your…"

Before finishing, Xiao Tian interrupted: "What if I refuse even unto death?"

At this moment, everyone simultaneously reached an answer in their hearts: refuse even unto death? Then we'll just let you die!?

But no one could speak such words. They've been embarrassed enough now, do they really have to be beaten to a pulp to be satisfied?

Knowing they couldn't out-argue Xiao Tian, everyone felt a bit stuck — they couldn't win in words, and they were not his match in a fight either!

Just when everyone was thinking of strategies, Xiao Tian started to move. His right arm stretched out, and after a surge of True Qi, a majestic and soul-stirring dragon roar resonated on the spot.

Following that, the Golden Flying Dragon that appeared when battling Thunder King Salon previously slowly appeared on Xiao Tian's right arm, evoking a sense of familiarity among everyone, prompting them to collectively retreat.

Seeing this scene, Thunder King Salon was somewhat disappointed. Originally, he intended to drag out the verbal confrontation to gradually wear down Xiao Tian's strength.

Upon seeing that Golden Flying Dragon, Thunder King Salon's heart sank immediately. He had suffered losses at this point before. It could shatter his protective armor; its power is absolutely extraordinary!

If even Thunder King Salon reacted this way upon seeing the dragon, there's no need to mention the other experts.

If Xiao Tian had summoned this Golden Flying Dragon from the beginning, perhaps everyone would only feel fear, but not chill from the heart.

Yet, the previous reckless slaughter has already given him a demonic title in their hearts. Now seeing this golden dragon again, no one thinks Xiao Tian is merely posing, not daring to truly use it.

"I'll count to three, if you don't clear the way, be prepared to set off!"

Xiao Tian's eyes returned to the indifferent state seen during the previous massacre, his tone cold and devoid of emotion: "Don't worry, you won't be lonely. Think it over, I'm going to start counting!"

"Three!"

The light utterance of a single word instantly threw the crowd into chaos. Everyone felt as if doomsday had arrived, with panic-stricken expressions like animals about to face slaughter.

"Two!"

Xiao Tian counted slowly, making everyone even more nervous, fearing the next number would bring catastrophic disaster.

At this moment, the Golden Flying Dragon began to move, its previously closed eyes suddenly opened, emitting a dazzling brilliance, full of fighting spirit!

Seeing this, everyone knew Xiao Tian was about to call out the next number, signaling the prelude to the coming storm.

In this critical moment, everyone instinctively started retreating into the distance. Some, stunned in place by the dragon's shock, were dragged away like dead dogs by people beside them, afraid that one person being present would implicate the majority!

Watching everyone leave, leaving Thunder King Salon alone, Xiao Tian unhesitatingly punched, and the dragon coiled around his arm immediately flew out.

After circling the sky a few times, it charged down with an imposing momentum, directly at Thunder King Salon.

After learning from past mistakes, Thunder King Salon dared not be careless, although previously, when facing the person in the black mist, he appeared unconcerned, as if victory was assured.

But at this moment, he couldn't help but feel a shock in his heart, hastily summoning a protective white light shield, followed by a milky white armor appearing all over his body once more.

Differing from last time, this time on Thunder King Salon's armor, apart from the unchanged general color, 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

there were strange red patterns appearing in various areas, lighting up with brilliant light once the armor was fully equipped.

The Golden Flying Dragon paused not for a moment, instantly bringing incredible power, smashing into Thunder King Salon's first defense, the slightly transparent white light shield.

Upon contact, the white light shield felt the pressure, collapsing inward, and after a moment it couldn't hold any longer, flashing twice before shattering with a crash, disintegrating into countless fragments and disappearing into the air.

After encountering brief resistance, the dragon's advance slowed slightly, then it surged towards Thunder King Salon's armor.

As soon as they clashed, Xiao Tian's brow furrowed. The armor that crumbled at the slightest touch last time seemed to have a counter-offensive tendency now, the credit attributed to the magical red patterns.

The glowing red lines suddenly began to separate, transforming into a giant web, enshrouding the golden dragon.

Simultaneously, countless lightning arcs appeared around the milky white armor, which turned from the original blue and white to pure blood red.

The red patterned net contracted sharply upon contacting the golden dragon, causing it to thrash about, struggling with all its might as if in pain.

"Haha! Hunter, do you have any other tricks?!" Thunder King Salon, seeing the plan succeed, couldn't help but laugh triumphantly.

Xiao Tian took a deep breath, sensing the ticking of time, his face gradually changing expression, indeed out of moves, now only trying to deliver as much damage as possible before the medicine's effect wears off.

Before Xiao Tian could act, Thunder King Salon immediately charged towards him, arriving in front of him in an instant, letting the golden dragon struggle within the red web.

Unhesitatingly, he threw a punch, and Xiao Tian immediately felt a paralyzing sensation. The force of his punch was instantly more than half negated, and Thunder King Salon didn't let out even a grunt.

"Are you trying to tickle me?" Thunder King Salon chuckled disdainfully: "My dear Hunter?!"

Listening to the unabashed mockery, Xiao Tian's face became more serious, his arm so weakened by numbness.

Moreover, Thunder King Salon's armor could negate at least thirty percent of the force, making him practically invincible!

If we assume that the power of the previous punch was ten, with the lightning around Thunder King Salon's armor and the inherent defense, the damage inflicted at most was two parts.

And now, with an increasingly feeble arm, delivering a ten-power punch has become a mere luxury!

Xiao Tian's current situation can no longer be described simply as dire…
