If he were to make a move and attract the attention of the Yao Race, it would be over.
"Zhao Huaian, today, no one can save you. Die!"
One of the Shadow Clan Prodigies had a cruel expression, his body trembling violently.
It wasn't fear, nor injury, but excitement. The Human Race's number one Prodigy, hailed as the most likely Prodigy to enter the Tribulation Transcendence Stage, was about to die by his hand today.
The thought alone was thrilling.
He had personally killed Zhao Huaian. After he went out, many great Immortal Masters would probably be willing to take him as a disciple, right?
At that time, his future would be bright, and his status within the Shadow Clan would surely rise. The thought alone made him incredibly excited.
He raised his right hand, a sharp blade appearing on his arm, and thrust it towards Zhao Huaian without hesitation.
Seeing this, Zhao Huaian struggled to raise the long spear in his right hand to block.
Boom.
With a loud bang, Zhao Huaian was sent flying, his entire body like a sandbag, thrown far away. After smashing through several rocks, his body gradually stopped in mid-air.
At this moment, Zhao Huaian's breathing was extremely faint. He barely opened his blood-stained eyes and stared intently at the Shadow Clan Prodigy before him.
He had underestimated the poison in his body. At this moment, the toxins had already invaded his internal organs, and even his originally divine Nascent Soul was slowly being contaminated.
At this moment, let alone fighting, he couldn't even move.
With that single blow, his shin bones had been shattered, and an indescribable pain surged into his mind.
At this moment, he was in an extremely sorry state.
The Human Race's number one Prodigy, Zhao Huaian, his disheveled figure was seen by all living beings of all races in the East Continent.
But at this moment, no living being mocked Zhao Huaian.
Because Zhao Huaian's strength was universally acknowledged. If the Shadow Clan hadn't launched a sneak attack while Zhao Huaian was fighting one against three, he would have long since cut them down.
"Oh? Not dead yet? Your vitality is truly tenacious. As expected of the Human Race's number one Prodigy, your vitality is like a turtle's, truly tenacious. I admire it."
Looking at Zhao Huaian, who was staring intently at him, the Shadow Clan Prodigy said mockingly.
Then, he pressed down in front of Zhao Huaian and slowly raised his right hand.
"It's time to die."
The Shadow Clan Prodigy said softly. The reason he was killing Zhao Huaian so slowly was to let the living beings of other races see it.
This former number one Prodigy of the Human Race, who was once so glorious, was now utterly disheveled.
"Brother, get out of my way, get out of my way!"
Seeing this, the unkempt man who had been standing beside Zhao Huaian's eyes were bloodshot, and his Spiritual Qi surged wildly as he unleashed his full power on the two Shadow Clan Prodigies in front of him.
Zhao Huaian was his brother, his only brother.
Seeing Zhao Huaian in such a state, his heart felt like it was being twisted by a knife.
"Die!"
The Shadow Clan Prodigy's patience seemed to have run out, his face extremely cruel, and then he fiercely struck towards Zhao Huaian's head.
"You two, stop!"
Suddenly, a figure stood in front of Zhao Huaian. On his chest, a Yin and Yang array diagram appeared, directly forcing back the Shadow Clan members in front of him.
"Huaiping, get out of the way. You are not their match."
Looking at the young man's back, Zhao Huaian struggled to open his eyes, his voice hoarse.
"I'm sorry, we two couldn't stop him."
At this moment, the two Shadow Clan Prodigies who were responsible for stopping Zhao Huaiping came in front of him and spoke to the four Shadow Clan Prodigies beside them.
"It's alright. Such deep brotherly affection, it truly moves an Immortal Master. However, today, let you two brothers die together."
After speaking, six Shadow Clan Prodigies raised their feet and walked towards Zhao Huaiping.
An Eight Trigrams array diagram appeared under Zhao Huaiping's feet, and his entire body began to assume a strange posture.
Boom, boom, boom.
In an instant, Zhao Huaiping fought one against six, engaging in battle with the six Shadow Clan Prodigies.
But with just one exchange, Zhao Huaiping was instantly suppressed.
After all, his strength was much weaker than Zhao Huaian's, so it was naturally impossible for him to fight one against six.
"Four ounces deflect a thousand pounds."
Zhao Huaiping lightly shouted, receiving all the incoming attacks and then returning them all.
But even so, his wounds increased, and his condition worsened.
His Spiritual Qi had significantly decreased; defeat was only a matter of time.
"Die!"
Boom!
Suddenly, a loud bang was heard, and Zhao Huaiping's figure was sent flying.
Under the encirclement of six people, being able to last for one minute was already very impressive.
"Alright, my patience has been exhausted. We'll kill these two brothers and leave. The Human Race isn't all here yet. If we wait for their reinforcements to arrive, it might be difficult to leave."
The Shadow Clan Prodigy, who was clearly the leader standing at the forefront, slowly spoke as he watched the distant battle.
The reason they were so successful was because the Human Race currently had only thirty or forty people.
If the Human Race were all present, their Shadow Clan would probably have to take a detour.
If they dragged out the time further and waited for Human Race reinforcements to arrive, although they could still retreat, they would inevitably lose some of their clansmen.
Between not losing anyone and losing a few, even a fool would choose the former.
"Remember, the one who kills you two is Dark Night."
After Dark Night finished speaking, he came before the two brothers, his body surging with Spiritual Qi, and a powerful attack rushed towards them.
Zhao Huaian and Zhao Huaiping exchanged a smile.
At this moment, they seemed to have returned to their childhood.
Their parents had disappeared since they were young, and the two relied on each other, living in a small mountain village.
One was seven, the other six, and they grew up eating from various households.
They caught butterflies together, swam in the river together, and fished together. That life was so carefree.
But then, an Immortal Master descended upon the small mountain village, discovered them, was greatly astonished, and then took them as disciples.
Thus, two people who were originally as ordinary as could be embarked on the incredibly cruel Cultivation world.
After coming into contact with Cultivation, they both displayed terrifying Cultivation talent.
Along the way, they were able to learn various Cultivation Techniques at a glance.
They relied on each other, from the Outer Sect to the Inner Sect, and from the Inner Sect to the Ten Sequences.
Just when they thought their future was bright and good times were coming, such a thing happened.
"Brother, I'm afraid we won't be able to find Mom and Dad. Since I was born, I've never seen Mom and Dad. I really don't know what they look like."
Zhao Huaiping coughed out a few mouthfuls of blood, his eyes looking up at the azure sky, and said with a bitter smile.
"It's alright. If we can't see them, we can't see them. We haven't seen Mom and Dad since we were little. For me, it's all the same whether they're there or not."
"Besides, since they abandoned us back then, it's not that important whether we look for them now."
Zhao Huaian lay beside Zhao Huaiping and said.
"But the biggest regret is that I didn't take you to experience the most beautiful scenery in this world."
"It's alright, I've already experienced enough. Brother, in the next life, I'll still be your little brother."
Zhao Huaiping looked at Zhao Huaian and said with a smile.
"But brother, don't you think death seems to be a bit slow in coming?"
Hearing Zhao Huaiping say that, Zhao Huaian finally reacted.
More than ten seconds had already passed. The Shadow Clan member shouldn't be moving so slowly, right?
Could it be that they were already dead? Was this just their dying hallucination?
"I say, you two, if you want to reminisce, please move to another spot. Can you not be behind me?"
