Over a hundred onlookers stood stunned, the outcome of the battle far exceeding their expectations, an outcome they could not accept.
With the combined strength of Boss He and his four companions, they could have held their own against true immortals for several rounds.
Dealing with mere nobodies like Xiao Fei and his group should have been a simple matter.
Everyone had unanimously agreed that Boss He would win, and they had already prepared their flattery.
The crowd had all placed bets on how long Xiao Fei could last, simply waiting for Boss He to finish them off.
Now, with Xiao Fei's sudden reversal, it was like a resounding slap across their faces.
It was akin to hiring a matchmaker, getting engaged, paying the deposit, making all the arrangements, and then joyfully bringing the bride into the home.
Only to lift the bridal veil that night and find a wrinkled old man inside.
It was no different from a heavy punch directly to the chest.
Xiao Fei, at this moment, had no time to concern himself with these idle bystanders.
After summoning the gourd vine to bind Boss He, he had exerted his full strength.
If he could now collect the person into the gourd, it would naturally be ideal.
However, his Yellow Gourd was an extremely rare congenital spiritual treasure, registered with many powerful figures in the immortal realm.
Once the Yellow Gourd was unleashed, its emitted fluctuations would be sensed by numerous immortal realm powers.
At that point, his plan to sneak into the immortal realm would be exposed.
Currently, the powers of the immortal realm still believed he was in the lower realm, with no one suspecting that he had already secretly infiltrated right under their noses.
Xiao Fei would rather let this earthly immortal clone die than expose his clandestine plan and draw the attention of the immortal realm powers.
“The Five Elements Combined Attack Formation is broken, quickly strike!”
Xiao Fei shouted loudly at the figures still lying on the ground.
The opposing five had already poured all their immortal energy into Boss He's hands.
Now that Boss He was bound by Xiao Fei's gourd vine, the remaining four had lost all their immortal energy and lacked even the ability to protect themselves.
“It’s either you die or I die, everyone attack!”
Song Yao was the first to leap up from the ground, taking the lead in attacking the only woman among their opponents.
The remaining few who were not yet dead also charged forward. If they couldn’t seize this opportunity to eliminate the opposing five, it would lead to endless trouble.
Song Yao rushed forward and used a surge of immortal energy to knock the opponent unconscious. The very first thing she did afterward was to strip the female cultivator of her magic robe.
They were both female cultivators, and only female cultivators understood the awkwardness within the Nine Yang Cave.
Song Yao’s only magic robe was already riddled with holes and tattered, covering her top would leave her bottom exposed, and covering her front would reveal her back.
She couldn’t simply go topless like the other male cultivators, and her chest wasn’t large enough to be exposed without feeling too embarrassed.
As Song Yao stripped the clothes off the woman who had comprehended the Law of Water, the other three had already been killed.
Now only Boss He, bound by Xiao Fei’s gourd vine, and the female cultivator, knocked unconscious and stripped by Song Yao, remained.
Although Boss He’s strength had been temporarily boosted by the immortal energy poured into him by his four companions.
This power did not belong to him. When the other three died, the combined attack formation was broken.
The immortal energy within him was rapidly dissipating into the air.
Only a very small portion returned to the unconscious female cultivator.
Song Yao, looking at the woman she had knocked unconscious, whose figure was also better than hers, was about to deliver the killing blow to vent her anger.
When Song Yao entered the Nine Yang Cave, she was still a young maiden, but being roasted by celestial fire every day, even a piece of soft tofu would have been dried into jerky.
“Wait! Spare her life, I have a use for her!”
Just then, Xiao Fei’s voice stopped Song Yao.
Song Yao glanced at the delicate skin and firm chest of the woman on the ground, and seemed to understand something.
Men were men, after all!
“Fellow Daoist Zhu Yu is mighty!”
“Fellow Daoist Zhu Yu’s magic power is boundless!”
“Congratulations, Fellow Daoist Zhu…”
At this moment, the onlookers who had been desperately belittling Xiao Fei and flattering Boss He all stepped forward, congratulating Xiao Fei!
Xiao Fei had successfully defeated Boss He, killing three of Boss He’s five companions, severely injuring one, and capturing one alive.
The attitudes of these more than a hundred people changed drastically. They approached Xiao Fei as if he were their own father, drawing closer and closer.
“You are all too kind!”
Xiao Fei cupped his hands towards the crowd, while simultaneously transmitting a message to Song Yao and Hong Wen De.
He sensed killing intent in their eyes.
“They mean us no good, gather your people, let’s go!”
Upon hearing this, Hong Wen De hoisted the bound Boss He, while Song Yao carried the female cultivator from the ground.
The remaining few also immediately followed, preparing to leave.
“Wait, Fellow Daoist Zhu, please wait!”
“I wonder if Fellow Daoist Zhu has any other treasures on him? Could you show them to us?”
It turned out that upon seeing that Xiao Fei still had hidden assets, everyone had become greedy.
As a result, a group of earthly immortals who were merely spectators watching the show were now unsatisfied after the show and wanted to step onto the stage themselves.
The more than a hundred people present were all earthly immortal level powerhouses; no one was significantly weaker than another.
In the past, due to the immense strength of their combined attack, Boss He had killed many cultivators who dared to defy him over the past few thousand years.
It could be said that Boss He had slowly solidified his hegemonic position through iron-fisted rule and sheer strength over thousands of years.
Although Xiao Fei had defeated Boss He in this battle, everyone could see his weakness.
He had merely used a powerful treasure to bind Boss He, and after binding Boss He, Xiao Fei was already in a weakened state.
Many realized that if they had this treasure, they could achieve the same.
As for the subordinates Xiao Fei had gathered, they had been crippled by Boss He’s fists earlier.
If such a golden opportunity were not seized, they deserved to be struck by lightning!
Thus, these more than a hundred earthly immortals, driven by greed, all surrounded Xiao Fei and his group.
Xiao Fei scanned the surroundings, seeing a group of greedy and confident earthly immortals about to make a move against him.
Countless thoughts raced through his mind as he searched for a way to break the impasse.
At such a moment, the most crucial thing was to absolutely not lose face and to prevent the opponents from discerning his true strength or weaknesses.
He needed to appear as profound and inscrutable as possible!
He immediately stopped in his tracks and looked at those who had been the most vocal.
With a thought, a saber appeared, easily severing Boss He’s head.
While bound by the gourd vine, his soul had also been imprisoned. This saber strike extinguished Boss He’s soul along with his head.
Simultaneously with killing Boss He, the gourd vine flew up again, and with a swish, it bound the earthly immortal who had been charging at the forefront and shouting the loudest.
Then, with a swift strike of the saber, the cultivator’s head was severed, much easier than binding Boss He earlier.
Before the crowd could react, the gourd vine had already flown above another earthly immortal’s head, and with another swish, it bound him. Another swish of the saber severed his head, and blood gushed out.
