The cold killing intent sealed the heavens and earth.

The three thieves—Blood Fiend, Netherworld Thief, and Red Robber—felt as though they were in an eternal icy abyss, feeling only the bone-chilling cold.

"Who are you, and why do you have the leader's mask?" The only female among the three, Red Robber, shouted coldly.

They were bewildered, completely unable to make sense of the situation.

A man and a woman appeared, the woman's face veiled.

The man wore a mask that was all too familiar to them.

This left them utterly confused.

"Mm... mm..."

Seeing the appearance of newcomers, the Second Miss of the Xia Family, Xia Chuying, who was bound and gagged, began to struggle violently, making muffled sounds.

Her bright eyes were filled with a strong desire for survival and a look of joy.

Clearly, she believed the man and woman before her were sent by the Xia Family to rescue her.

"You said you were going to hunt Jiang Shengyi?"

A voice cold beyond compare came from Jun Xiaoyao.

The terrifying killing intent changed the very color of the heavens and earth.

Beside him, Yan Rumeng watched Jun Xiaoyao's demeanor and sighed lightly.

Having been with Jun Xiaoyao for so long, she knew that Jun Xiaoyao was always someone whose emotions remained placid.

Nothing could sway Jun Xiaoyao's emotions; even if Mount Tai collapsed in front of him, his expression would not change.

However, upon hearing the news of Jiang Shengyi possibly being hunted, Jun Xiaoyao exuded such killing intent.

This was enough to prove that Jiang Shengyi held a special place in Jun Xiaoyao's heart, distinct from other women.

"Jiang Shengyi is truly blessed..." Yan Rumeng's eyes showed envy.

How many women in this world have the privilege to make Jun Xiaoyao concerned?

"So what if we are... hmm, wait, could it be that you are..."

Red Robber snorted coldly, then as if suddenly realizing something, her body shook, and tremors appeared in her eyes.

"Could you be... Jun Xiaoyao!" Red Robber couldn't help but exclaim.

Jun Xiaoyao's gaze was frosty, and without saying a word, he suppressed them with a single palm.

"Quick, run!" Red Robber shouted sharply.

Netherworld Thief and Blood Fiend also changed their expressions drastically, desperately fleeing.

It wasn't that they were too cowardly.

Having learned that Jun Xiaoyao had slain the Half-Step Great Saint Level Flame Snake General, they realized they were no match for him.

Unless the top-ranked thieves of the Thirteen Great Thieves, such as Greedy Wolf Thief, Po Jun Thief, and Seven Kills Thief, teamed up, they might have a chance against Jun Xiaoyao.

"Think you can escape?" Jun Xiaoyao sneered.

Suddenly, sealing runes appeared in the surrounding void, completely locking the area.

No matter how they attacked, the three were unable to break the seal.

Jun Xiaoyao had already set the Third Seal of the Forbidden Immortal in place before appearing.

The three thieves' faces turned grim.

They had always played the role of hunters, with top-tier Celestial Prides as their prey.

But now, they were finally experiencing what it felt like to be hunted.

Jun Xiaoyao's palm interwove with technique runes, striking down.

It carried the Power of the Sumeru World.

The three thieves felt as though the entire world was pressing down on them!

"How can such a demon exist among the young generation of the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm!"

The three thieves had some expectations of Jun Xiaoyao's terrifying strength, but they hadn't anticipated this level of power.

With just a flick of the hand, he induced a sense of hopelessness and powerlessness in them.

"Even our young kings from the Exotic Realm and descendants of Immortal Emperor Races are no match for him," Red Robber despaired.

They didn't bother begging for mercy, knowing Jun Xiaoyao wouldn't spare them.

Splatter!

Netherworld Thief and Blood Fiend's bodies shattered almost instantly, bones breaking, flesh and blood turning to pulp, primordial spirits annihilated.

Leaving only Red Robber trembling, her face somewhat dazed.

"What... what are you going to do, can it be..." Red Robber misunderstood, thinking Jun Xiaoyao intended to violate her.

After all, she was the only woman among the three, and Jun Xiaoyao had spared her.

"Tell me everything you know, and I can give you a swift end," Jun Xiaoyao said indifferently.

Killing them was inevitable, but extracting information was the priority.

"Impossible." Red Robber clenched her teeth tightly.

For the Exotic Realm to send them as scouts, their mentality was naturally strong, unwilling to capitulate easily. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

But unfortunately, she faced Jun Xiaoyao.

"Self-inflicted pain," Jun Xiaoyao shook his head slightly.

The Chaos Divine Mill emerged directly.

The pain of grinding a primordial spirit soul was a thousand times worse than being flayed alive.

Except for those with extremely resolute minds, none could endure it.

This was why Jun Xiaoyao left only Red Robber alive.

The psychological barriers of women are thinner, easier to break through.

Soon, Jun Xiaoyao broke through Red Robber's barrier and obtained some vital information.

Red Robber was ranked higher among the Thirteen Great Thieves than the previous thieves.

Thus, she knew more.

"So that's it. The Other Shore Organization has infiltrated the Immortal Realm for a long time, and behind them are the Exotic Realm's Immortal Emperor Races, the Other Shore Race," Jun Xiaoyao murmured.

The Exotic Realm contained ancient Immortal Emperor Races, like the Ancient Lan Race, Other Shore Race, and Zu'an Race, etc.

These Immortal Emperor Races have a long history, profound legacy, deep foundations, and boundless mystery.

Jun Xiaoyao hadn't anticipated that the Exotic Realm had long been plotting in secret.

Moreover, the three thieves were preparing to submit special physiques and bloodlines to Immortal Slayer Thief.

Surprisingly, Jun Xiaoyao learned from Red Robber that the top-ranked Immortal Slayer Thief, capable of hunting Forbidden Celestial Prides, was merely a mortal body.

But Immortal Slayer Thief defied fate, possessing the ability to devour other bloodlines and physiques.

The more he devours and refines, the stronger he becomes.

"This physique is somewhat similar to Yan Qingying, but besides Qingying's unique physique, she mainly relies on the Devouring God Demon Technique," Jun Xiaoyao thought.

If Immortal Slayer Thief was allowed to continue growing, he might pose a faint threat to him.

Jun Xiaoyao also learned that deep within the Ancient Road, Greedy Wolf Thief and others plotted to target Jiang Shengyi.

At the moment, six thieves were deep in the Ancient Road.

Besides the most mysterious and powerful Immortal Slayer Thief, there were Greedy Wolf Thief, Po Jun Thief, Seven Kills Thief, Moon Slayer Thief, and Star Destroyer Thief.

Roughly categorizing the Thirteen Great Thieves, Immortal Slayer Thief undoubtedly sat at the top.

Greedy Wolf Thief, Po Jun Thief, and Seven Kills Thief were in the 2nd Layer.

Moon Slayer Thief, Star Destroyer Thief, and Red Robber were in the third layer.

Previous Shadow Demon Thief, Celestial Witch Thief, etc., were in the fourth layer.

Greedy Wolf Thief and others' strength was on a different level from Red Robber and the others.

With their power, they might pose a threat to Jiang Shengyi.

Yet, Jun Xiaoyao breathed a slight sigh of relief.

For now, Greedy Wolf Thief and others were only in the planning stages, far from execution.

Jiang Shengyi, after all, was not an easy target; now an illustrious Divine Level figure in the Ultimate Ancient Road, her strength was formidable.

They would need to scheme and weigh their options for success.

"Thirteen Great Thieves, your path has grown narrow..."

With a thought, Jun Xiaoyao crushed Red Robber's primordial spirit with the Chaos Divine Mill.

A dragon has a reverse scale; touch it and evoke wrath!

Jiang Shengyi was one of Jun Xiaoyao's reverse scales.
