"Do you think you can escape?"
Gray's eyes were cold as he watched the members of the Warren Family flee in panic. He had naturally noticed the way these people had looked at him like a cat playing with a mouse.
Thump, thump, thump!
The three remaining barbarian-level blood fiends chased after the fleeing Wallen family members.
It was naturally easy for the barbarian-level blood fiends to deal with a few berserk-level blood fiends.
The iron-armed barbaric ape leaped a few times and blocked the path of one of the Wallen family members. Its cracked iron fist smashed down, causing the Wallen family member's weapon to drop and his arm to break as he flew backward.
The barbarian ant was like a black armored vehicle. Even though it only had four intact legs, it was still faster than a berserk blood warrior. It crashed into a Wallen family member, causing him to vomit blood and fly backward.
The tusked boar moved like a small mountain and stomped on a Wallen family member, turning one of his legs into minced meat.
In a short while, apart from the head of the Wallen family and the old man in bandages, the rest of the Wallen family members were all heavily injured and driven back.
Whoosh!
Gray himself chased after the head of the Wallen family, Brent Wallen, and the old man in bandages.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
Large amounts of black metal powder floated up from the ground and transformed into sharp metal blades.
Lightning flickered on the surface of the metal blades, and each blade was like a magic weapon. They converged together and transformed into two long snakes wrapped in lightning. They chased after the head of the Wallen family, Brent Wallen, and the old man in bandages.
The head of the Wallen family, Brent Wallen, and the old man in bandages paled. They had watched the battle between Gray and the rune puppet and were well aware of the power of this lightning-wrapped metal.
The two of them did not continue to flee. They used their blood fiends' abilities to create wall after wall of vines to protect themselves.
Puff, puff, puff!
Every single one of the metal blades that were entwined with lightning possessed a terrifying destructive power. Under their attacks, the walls of vines were torn apart like they were made of paper.
In the end, the Wallen family's patriarch, Brent Wallen, and the bandaged elder, who were hiding behind the wall of vines, were completely exposed to the lightning metal attack.
Poof, poof, poof!
Sharp blades covered with lightning stabbed into their bodies, turning them into porcupines in an instant.
It should be said that the two of them were worthy of being Barbarian Blood warriors. Even in such a situation, they were not killed. However, their injuries were not light. They were in so much pain that their faces were distorted. Even the slightest movement would cause a heart-piercing pain.
Tap, tap, tap!
Gray walked unhurriedly towards the head of the Wallen family, Brent Wallen, who was covered in wounds.
The combination of lightning and metal had surpassed the average Barbarian Level and had reached the second stage of the Barbarian Level, which was the terrifying Blood Beast ability.
Although it was not very effective against rune puppets, it was extremely powerful against those at the Barbarian level. Even if it was split into two, it still had enough destructive power to crush those at the first stage of the Barbarian level.
Walking in front of the Wallen family, Gray looked down at the head of the Wallen family. His eyes were filled with killing intent.
Apart from him and the Wallen family, no one else had seen the battle just now. He was considering whether he should take this opportunity to kill the Wallen family here.
"I'm a noble of the kingdom. You, you can't kill me …"
Feeling Gray's undisguised killing intent, the head of the Wallen family, Brent Wallen, could not maintain his calm expression. He tried to put on a strong front.
Gray did not answer. He snatched the rune space bag from his body and looked inside.
It was a few cubic meters of space. There were a lot of gold and magic coins in it, about a few hundred thousand gold coins in total. There were also five bottles of potions, three of which were healing potions, two of which were magic potions, and a magic blade.
After that, he searched the bodies of the others and even confiscated their weapons.
Apart from the bandaged old man who had a few hundred thousand gold coins, the others had more or less tens of thousands of gold coins. As members of the Marquis family, and with a high status, it was normal for them to have tens of thousands of gold coins on them.
His gaze once again fell on the head of the Wallen family. The killing intent in his eyes was so strong that it was like a dark cloud that could not be dispersed.
"You've tried to kill me time and time again. Do you really think that I don't dare to kill you …"
The other party had tried to make an enemy of him time and time again, wanting to kill him. He had long planned to get rid of future troubles.
Now that there were no outsiders present, it was the best opportunity to get rid of these people.
Thinking of this, his eyes were filled with killing intent. He pulled out the sword at his waist and walked step by step towards the head of the Wallen family, Brent Wallen.
"The royal family won't let you off …"
The head of the Wallen family was frightened and tried to dodge. However, he was now seriously injured and had difficulty moving. After taking a few steps back, he staggered and almost fell to the ground.
He looked on in horror as Gray came closer and closer.
"Young friend, can you spare their lives?"
Gray was getting closer and closer to the head of the Wallen family. The tip of his sword was almost touching the head of the Wallen family's neck. However, at this moment, a strange voice sounded nearby.
It was so close that it seemed to be right next to his ear.
"Who …?"
Gray retreated in panic and turned his head to look in the direction of the voice.
Suddenly, he became extremely shocked in his heart. Less than ten meters to the left, a handsome man wearing gray clothes but with white hair strangely appeared there.
"A Desolate Blood Warrior, or a King Warrior?"
Gray's forehead was covered in cold sweat, and his back was drenched in sweat.
To be able to approach within ten meters of him without him noticing, Gray felt that even a Desolate Blood Warrior would not be able to do this. It was very likely that the other party was a King Warrior.
"Who is this person?"
Thoughts flashed through his mind as he tried to guess the other party's identity.
First, he thought that the other party was a member of the Wallen family. Although there was no news of a King Warrior in the Wallen family, he could not rule out the possibility that there was a King Warrior in the family.
However, he immediately rejected this idea.
If the other party was a member of the Wallen family, seeing how badly he had beaten the Wallen family, they would have killed him already. Why would they negotiate with him so 'amiably'?
Therefore, the other party was definitely not a member of the Wallen family. However, from the way the other party had stopped him from killing, it was very likely that the other party was related to the Wallen family, but definitely not close.
"The Kenneth family, or the royal family?"
These were the only two forces he could think of.
The former and the Wallen family were both nobles of the kingdom, so there would definitely be some interaction between them. Seeing that the Wallen family was about to be killed, it was completely possible for them to stand up and stop it.
As for the latter, as the ruler of the entire Purple Moon Kingdom and a member of the Wallen family, they would naturally not allow the head of the Wallen family and his direct descendants to be killed.
Of course, this did not rule out the possibility of other factions. It could only be said that the first two factions were the most likely.
Various thoughts flashed through Gray's mind as Gray spoke politely to the old man.
"Greetings, senior!"
Since the other party did not immediately attack him, it meant that the other party did not intend to kill him. He decided not to rush to teleport away.
Moreover, it was still unknown whether he could escape by teleporting in front of a suspected King Warrior.
"Although the Wallen family was wrong, they have received the punishment they deserved. How about we let them go this time?"
The old man said calmly as he looked at Gray.
His aura was not as majestic as the sea, nor was it as imposing as the heavens. However, when combined with the strange way he had appeared, the pressure that Gray felt was no less than that of a King level expert.
"I'll do as you say, senior."
Gray naturally did not dare to say no.
Saying no in front of a suspected King Warrior was not courage but recklessness. It was like trying to smash an egg against a rock.
Moreover, even if he wanted to kill the Wallen family, he could not do so with this person present.
"Senior, I'll be leaving first!"
Gray felt uneasy being with a suspected King Warrior. Although he was very curious about the other party's identity, he still decisively chose to leave.
"Take care of yourself!"
Seeing Gray leave, the man calmly looked at the head of the Wallen family. With a flash, he disappeared from where he was as if he had never appeared. One could faintly hear his muffled voice.
"I lost … to that girl!"
After leaving the place where the battle had taken place, and confirming that the suspected King Warrior was not following behind him, Gray finally let out a sigh of relief.
"Hu …"
This was a suspected King-level existence. Even if the other party did not release the slightest bit of pressure, the pressure it brought was unimaginable.
The feeling of his life being out of his control was like a fish out of water, almost suffocating him.
"Is this a King Warrior?"
Gray had seen a total of four King Warriors: the King of Mercenaries, the King of Assassins, the King of the Purple Moon Kingdom, and this unknown King Warrior.
However, this was the first time he had come face to face with a King Warrior at such a close distance. He could feel a huge difference in the other party's life force, as if the other party was on a different level and had become a different kind of life form.
Although Lu Xuan's strength exceeded that of an ordinary person, he was essentially no different from an ordinary person. He was still on the same level.
He did not think about going back to see if the King Warrior had left, or if he could take the opportunity to kill the Wallen family. Trying to do something like that with a suspected King Warrior was no different from seeking death.
Using spatial teleportation and rushing at full speed, he quickly left the Wallen family's territory. Ten days later, he passed by a city called Cumberland City and entered it.
This was an extremely prosperous city with a resident population of two million. There were many merchants and pedestrians coming and going. On the streets, one carriage after another came and went. Many of the carriages were elegant, and one could tell at a glance that they were the carriages of prominent people.
An elegant and beautiful carriage came towards Gray. Around the carriage, there were guards wearing excellent battle armor. This carriage was definitely the carriage of a prominent person.
The curtains of the carriage were pulled open, and a beautiful young girl's face was by the window. When she saw Gray, she suddenly spoke with surprise and suspicion.
"It's you?!"
