Beast Evolution System: Devourer of Heaven-Chapter 334: Muyang Ren 2
The village chief waited in front of the cave when a group of people appeared, flying on a giant sword.
Leading them was a handsome man with cold eyes. These people were from the Heavenly Sword Sect.
The Heavenly Sword Sect was one of the most powerful sects in this world; among the 10 human nascent souls, it had three.
The only other sect that matches them is the Sky Dippers sect, which focuses mostly on divination and star magic.
The chief had summoned the sword sect not only because he was in their territory, but also because his father had been a member there.
He left with his wife and the chief's mother after finding the mortal-grade cultivation technique of the sabre the chief was currently using.
Afraid the sword sect would chase him down to take it from him, he changed both his name and that of his wife.
The giant sword descended and landed in front of him. A hundred people wearing silver robes with a sword on their hearts descended.
The village chief knelt toward the leader of this group; the man was an elder of the sword sect.
He was a golden core expert, someone whose power the village chief could not even begin to imagine.
He was shaking with fear as this godlike being stared down at him. He wondered in his heart who was stronger: this man or the person he had seen.
" Show me." The man ordered in a cold voice. The village chief knew if he dared to delay, he would die immediately.
He led them inside, and when they got there, the disciples of the sword sect couldn't help but exclaim.
The cave was filled with treasures, but what confused them was that they couldn't sense any qi from these plants.
But they felt a vast life energy overflowing through them. They gulped; their instincts told them that eating this would be highly beneficial.
However, none of them dared to take even one; this was the property of the sect, and they would be executed by this elder if they tried.
" Who else knows about this?" The handsome man asked the chief, who started shaking with fear.
He knew why this man asked the question; he wanted to silence the witnesses, but that included him.
He wrecked his brain trying to come up with a solution to get out of this situation, but nothing came to mind.
Even if he told them the entire village knew, they had no reason to spare him; in fact, they would definitely kill him right here.
" I.." he didn't get to finish before his head rolled off his neck and his blood stained the grass.
The handsome man's expression did not change, and he sheathed his sword, then looked at the disciples.
These were the lowest of the sect; they were sent to accompany him because their lives were worthless.
However, they were still way above a mortal; a single one of them could kill hundreds, if not thousands, of mortals.
" Kill everybody." He ordered in a cold voice, and the disciples grinned and ran out of the cave, excited.
To them, killing mortals was no different from killing chickens; they did not even view themselves as the same species.
All except four, a pair of twins, a timid-looking girl and a boy with a face even colder than their leader.
The sect teaches them to let go of their mortal connections, but these four could not forget their families.
They were from mortal families and did not view mortals as ants; they believed that, as cultivators, they were meant to protect mortals.
The timid girl was about to voice her thoughts when one of the twins grabbed her arm and shook his head.
His sister frowned; they all knew if they dared speak up, they would die right here and now.
They followed the others, but each one had their own thoughts, and they were each thinking about how to save that poor village.
It didn't take them long to reach it, and with their speed, the journey was less than two hours. Just as they got there they saw a young boy leaving the village with his sheeps and a golden dog.
The boy looked at them and froze, ' No.' All four wished the boy would continue and run; perhaps he might live.

Xingchen looked at the compass in her hand, confused. As the daughter of the leader of the Heavenly Dipper sect, a lot of expectations were placed on her shoulders.
She had so many responsibilities that she wanted to die; she was even engaged to a man she did not like.
She was rarely allowed to leave the sect because of her talent; in a thousand years, it is said she had the highest talent for divination than anybody.
Because of that, she was overly shielded by both her parents and the sect, but that was suffocating.
A few months ago, her divination told her, her fate lay around here; she had been searching without success.
Eventually, the dipper led her here, but that only made things more confusing. What could be so important in this tiny village, she wondered.
What she didn't know was that a woman was floating high above the clouds, looking down on everything happening below.
She saw Xingchen, the four kids from the sword sect, and Muyang Ren who facing the sword sect without fear.
Xingchen walker to the edge of the village and saw the sword sect too. " Yiii." She yelped and hid behind a mud house.
She thought they were here for her; this place was close to their territory, and their two sects were enemies.
She saw a young boy her age standing before the sword sect disciples, a dog lying by his side.
----------------------------------------------------------
" Ki ki ki ki." One of the sect's disciples laughed and walked towards Muyang. He was confused by their presence.
" Can I help you, immortal sir?" To Muyang, cultivators were beings far above him; he couldn't imagine himself facing one.
The cultivator grinned, " Lick my shoe, and I might spare your life."
" Huh?!" Muyang was genuinely confused; he had no idea what that was even about, but before he could respond, the cultivator attacked.
His sword drew a silver arc heading straight for Muyang, before, Muyang would not have been able to even see the sword strike.
Yet now he saw clearly, without thinking, he punched as hard as he could. He felt his muscles explode with power he couldn't comprehend.
BOOOOM, his arm snapped like a whip, and the air exploded.
