But the situation was tense for a specific woman.
It was no better for her opponent.
The black wolf stared at the woman while snarling.
The woman ran towards the wolf, who did not want retreat. When she tried to attack with the sword, the wolf tried to bite her hand.
The woman's movement was fast and accurate, but the wolf could follow that speed very well. Both were at the peak-stage of the Qi Refinement Realm.
When the sword was almost hitting the head of the wolf that was almost biting the woman's hand, something happened very quickly to change the course of the battle.
"Eeeh?"
The woman and the wolf were perplexed. They could only think of one word at that moment. But the sound did not follow the speed of thoughts for the woman to speak. The wolf wouldn't talk even if it had the speed needed for that, of course.
An ax. A colossal silver ax fell on the wolf's head so quickly that it and the woman couldn't finish their movements.
*Creak*
*Thud*
The wolf's head fell to the ground as the body squirted blood everywhere. And the woman can't help cursing.
"d.a.m.n you. Why did you disturb me?"
The tall man in metal armor rested the handle of the large ax on his shoulder and turned to leave but not before making his disappointment clear.
"You wouldn't have hit it before you lost an arm. Do I save you, and don't you thank me but curse me?"
The woman didn't like that man at all. She didn't know if it was the fact that he likes other men or other things, but they never got along.
"Do you think you can do whatever you want just because you warm the captain's bed, Han Bo?"
Han Bo found this woman as annoying as her master, but he could do nothing but complain because he was just a mercenary, and very powerful people supported the woman. But he would leave without mourning.
"And can you do anything? Do not think that I cannot kill without anyone knowing, Guan Zexi."
"Do you dare?"
"Do you want to risk it?"

Han Bo and Guan Zexi could have been fighting like children for days without realizing how stupid they were.
But the man who came down the road leading a group of mercenaries did not like these stupid fights and would like to be able to punish them both. Of course, he punishes Han Bo all nights, but in another way.
In Guan Zexi's case, the situation was different. He couldn't touch her because she had a very important background for him, even thinking about doing any harm to her hair. But he had to show strength as the group's leader and could not help but scold them.
"Why do you have to fight all the time? We are all servants of the Guan Family, so why can't you be at least friendly to each other."
Han Bo and Guan Zexi stopped discussing when they heard the captain's deep-toned voice. The group did not even know the name of the man who led them and only called him captain. He was a calm and reserved person.
The captain was very similar to Han Bo. Both were tall and strong men with brown skin. Han Bo looked to be in his thirties and still looked young. But, the captain was already a middle-aged man and was probably almost a hundred years old since cultivators of the Martial Warrior Realm have no difficulty in appearing to be forty even with a century old.
Han Bo and Guan Zexi bowed their heads because they respected the captain and knew that they should not fight.
"Sorry captain, it was my fault!"
After they both bowed and apologized, the mercenary group continued walking forward the road. They had been traveling for a long time, and everyone was exhausted, but there was still a long way ahead before they got home.
The captain was leading the group, and Han Bo was carrying the big silver ax beside him. On the other side, Guan Zexi walked elegantly, drawing the attention of all the men in the group and even some women. Of course, the captain and his partner were not among her fans.
Guan Zexi was a beautiful woman with black hair. She was 1.7 meters tall and had fair skin. If Nero met her, he would undoubtedly be surprised. Not because she was so beautiful but because of her similarities with someone he knew.
If Dai Jingyi was like a small copy of Dai Zhi, Guan Zexi was like a big one. Anyone who saw they together would be sure they were related.
The group walked went the road for a few hours until they saw an inn at the crossroads. Everyone cannot help but be happy because they were too tired to travel for so long without a satisfactory rest.
The captain didn't even think to deny the group a good lunch. Then almost fifty mercenaries entered the inn, alarming the few people in the hall.
Guan Zexi was so hungry then rushed to the receptionist to order food and drink. The people at that inn were used to serving groups of travelers who pa.s.sed the crossroads, so they had no problems with large orders even though were few workers there.
The group split up on several tables and began to eat and drink excitedly. The few other people in the hall stayed apart of them as a mercenary group was very scary.
They spoke loudly and beat each other. The waitresses couldn't help being scared while listening to some of their conversations.
"I can't believe we caught a salamander this time."
"Yes. She is so s.e.xy that she will be very popular in the fights."
"I will not lose a chance to watch that b.i.t.c.h once!"
"But why do we have to go back before the main group?"
"It's because Boss wanted to check some rumors, but someone has to come back and tell her family, so they don't worry."
"Will she find species rarer than the centaur?"
"Who knows? Boss always wants the most exotic."
The mercenaries continued to talk about 'species,' which made it clear that it was about non-humans and beasts more intelligent than normal ones. The inn workers began to a.s.sume that they were non-humans slaveholders.
Most people at Xu Dynasty hated non-humans, but some of them did not, and others even saw them as exotic attractions and made them slaves.
The imperial family and the four great powers were against these practices, but they did not make a point of punis.h.i.+ng someone for having non-human slaves, so a few people who had particular desires had no problem with that.
This particular group was part of a larger group that served a family that did various events with non-humans. The non-humans caught by them suffer much more than just die because they were forced to various brutal and humiliating acts.
While some talked about some of the slaves who were coming with the larger group, others talked about resting when they returned to the house. But at the table where the captain was with the strongest mercenaries in the group, the conversation was quite different.
"Why does Boss like that stupid woman so much?"
"Shut up, Han bo! She is a servant, but the family is very fond of her, and not only Boss will be angry if something happens to her."
"But captai-"
The captain couldn't take any more of the fighting between Han Bo and Guan Zexi. He did not understand why his partner was not like the other mercenaries who simply accepted that she was superior and lower their head.
He started to think that by sleeping with Han Bo, he began to get more insubordinate and feel better than the others. When Han Bo started to complain about Guan Zexi, she was in the bathroom, but the captain wanted to avoid any problems and told him to shut up.
Guan Zexi was a brilliant woman and always took advantage of any person or opportunity. When she was coming back from the bathroom, she stopped after seeing a man entering the kitchen.
He was a very handsome young man, and she couldn't help but be interested. It had been a long time since she had any fun, so that seemed like an excellent opportunity. Guan Zexi wasted no time and went into the kitchen looking for the handsome man.
She was very confident in her beauty and did not think that the man might not want to be with her. When she entered the kitchen, she saw the man carrying a vegetable hamper to a girl who was cooking. She didn't think much and approached him while speaking loud enough for everyone in the kitchen to hear.
"Hey handsome, this lady here will give you a treatment worthy of the G.o.ds today."
The man did not know who this woman was because he was out collecting vegetables for his wife to cook, so he was surprised by the situation. He loved his wife very much and would not go anywhere with another woman.
"Forgive me, my lady, but I will have to refuse your goodwill."
Guan Zexi thought she had drunk too much wine and was listening wrong. How could a man reject her divine body?
She approached the man and tried to take his hand. But the man would not let another woman disrespect his wife so, then he turned his hand away, not letting Guan Zexi touch him.
Guan Zexi was a cultivator almost at the Martial Warrior Realm, so she was more than a hundred times faster than man. But she never had to use force to make anyone want to sleep with her. So when the man dodged her touch, it was a surprise for her.
"You can not be serious! Are you really going to miss the chance of your life?"
The man first thought the woman was kidding, and then when she tried to touch him, he thought she might want to make fun of his wife. But now that she was speaking in a very serious tone, he couldn't help but be confused.
It was not his fault that he was confused because it was not typical for beautiful women to hara.s.s married men very often. He didn't know who she was but dressed like that, and with that look, she had to be someone important and of high status.
He felt disapproval and hostility at the woman's tone, so he started to get afraid. So he stood in front of his wife, who was already shaking with fear and tried to argue.
"My lady, please understand, my wife and I are simple peasants, and we cannot oppose such ill.u.s.trious people as you. But I love my wife, and I would feel horrible about doing anything like that."
Now, Quan Zexi was sure she found a blind man. How could he deny being with her to be loyal to a girl who was so ugly and ignorant? She cannot help being offended by thinking that the man, despite wanting to sleep with her, did not want his wife to know.
She was quite sure that no man would deny staying with her for at least one night. But seeing that the man didn't want to give in at the right time made her angry. She lost all desire to have fun and started thinking about how to punish the man for not knowing what was good for him.
"You have no idea how you will regret that choice."
