After entering the tavern, Qian Renfeng walked confidently towards the bar, his steps steady, and his posture relaxed.
As soon as he stepped inside the tavern, almost all eyes turned toward him. The young man dressed in a light blue robe stood out like a sore thumb among the crowd. It was as if everyone was looking at an alien.
Why wouldn't they?
Everyone here was covered in layers of armor, their bodies marked with scars, exuding a fierce aura. This was the true ambiance of this place.
But Qian Renfeng?
He was wearing a light blue scholar's robe, appearing gentle and refined, not at all like a vicious soul master. He looked more like a scholar who had escaped from some school, giving an impression of fragility the moment anyone saw him.
But Qian Renfeng had another side to him — one that was divine and imposing. However, that side would easily reveal his true power, making him appear too ostentatious wherever he went.
Among all his appearances, Qian Renfeng preferred the current one.
"Open the secret passage to the City of Slaughter, and I'll spare your life," Qian Renfeng said, standing at the bar, speaking boldly.
The bartender's expression turned unfriendly. Initially, he had stayed silent about Qian Renfeng's appearance, but now, what was this person doing? He was violating the unspoken rules of the City of Slaughter!
"Friend, have you thought this through?"
"Perhaps you're very powerful, but this is the City of Slaughter. I advise you to go outside and inquire about the name of the Lord of Slaughter. Not everyone can insult him!"
"If you break the rules of the City of Slaughter, not only will you be unable to enter, but we might even hunt you down!" the bartender warned.
Qian Renfeng completely ignored the bartender. The reason he had given him a chance was that, when he first entered, everyone's gaze was unfriendly, except for this bartender, who remained silent.
Since the bartender didn't seem to care, Qian Renfeng was done being patient.
A ball of crimson flame appeared in his hand, and with a swift movement, though not fast, it seemed as if a divine being had descended upon them!
"Hiss!"
Suddenly, flames erupted under the feet of one person. The wooden floor beneath them seemed to recognize Qian Renfeng's presence and immediately caught fire, consuming the entrance entirely.
The group of men, who had previously looked fierce and intimidating, now turned pale at the sight of the flame. Even those who were used to the violence and bloodshed of this place could feel the terrifying aura coming from this fire.
Had they encountered such a person before, they would not be standing here right now!
"Run! Run!"
"This is a true slaughter god!!!"
One of them screamed in fear and immediately fled the tavern.
At that moment, all thoughts of the Lord of Slaughter and the City of Sin were thrown out the window. Only survival mattered.
Qian Renfeng summoned a silver longsword and looked at the passage. "Do you lead the way, or should I kill you and go down myself?"
The bartender's face remained emotionless, as if his mind had been controlled. "You've broken the rules!" he said calmly.
"You will not be able to enter the City of Slaughter like this!"
Qian Renfeng smiled indifferently. "That's none of your business. Will you lead the way, or should I go down myself?"
The bartender stared at the fire on the floor, his eyes nearly going mad. "No matter how strong you are, you cannot defeat the Lord of Slaughter!"
"He is a true god! The god of slaughter!"
"If you kill us, the Lord of Slaughter will take revenge for us!"
Qian Renfeng smirked and, with a swift motion, his silver sword cut through the bartender's neck in a flash of electric sparks, severing his head cleanly.
"Fool."
A strange black light flickered, and soon, the entire tavern was left with only two people.
One was a beautiful female angel summoned by Qian Renfeng, standing silently beside him.
"Go ahead and scout the path. It's best if you can make it straight to the Lord of Slaughter!" Qian Renfeng ordered.
With a slight nod, the angel warrior immediately went down without hesitation.
After all, she was composed of energy, and even if she dissipated, she could quickly reform if Qian Renfeng wished.
Qian Renfeng casually walked to the bar, picked up a few bottles of liquor, and began mixing them.
During his twelve years at the Spirit Hall, the Qīngluán Douluo had taught him how to mix cocktails, a rather unique skill.
He never expected he'd use this skill one day.
Moments later, a green cocktail appeared on the bar. Qian Renfeng took a sip, his face contorting slightly in bitterness.
"Mm... It's terrible."
He then took out some fine wine from the royal family of the Tiandou Empire, took a few sips, and abandoned his immature attempt at mixing cocktails.
Meanwhile, a golden light flickered in the secret passage, accompanied by a profound aura and divine sounds.
Qian Renfeng knew that the angel warrior had gone straight into action.
At the very least, she had already attracted the attention of the Lord of Slaughter, Tang Chen!
Qian Renfeng picked up the deep green cocktail, lifted himself off the ground, and headed toward the passage.
Moments later, Qian Renfeng arrived at the City of Slaughter. He passed through the city gates and emerged into the outer city of the City of Slaughter.
The sky in the City of Slaughter was completely different from the outside world.
The sky was dark and overcast, with blood-red clouds drifting by from time to time.
Rather than being a natural sky, it was more like a simulated scene, created by the city's special nature.
Once inside, Qian Renfeng could feel his Shura Demon Sword Spirit becoming restless, as if it were returning home. Even though he had not intentionally activated its power, it was still eager to surge forth.
The Shura Demon Sword seemed to be itching to rise from the ground.
Qian Renfeng looked toward the golden light in the distance. The light was still there, though much dimmer now.
He saw that the angel warrior was heavily injured, with at least a dozen wounds on her body, each emanating holy energy. This meant that she was on the verge of completely dissipating!
There was no other way.
The area she was in was surrounded by one Title Douluo and three Soul Douluo-level experts, all attacking her at once.
The Slaughter Domain of the City of Slaughter constantly suppressed her energy, forcing her to use some of her holy energy to resist the Slaughter Domain.
Thankfully, it was just the Slaughter Domain. If it had been Qian Renfeng's Shura Domain, she might not have lasted this long.
Qian Renfeng snapped his fingers, summoning her back to him. Then, he sent an angelic holy sword in the direction of the battle.
The sword crashed into the four experts who had been surrounding the angel warrior, knocking them back.
He then looked toward a certain direction, smiling indifferently. "Alright, no more hiding. Come out and fight!"
"Lord of Slaughter of the City of Slaughter, or..."
"Hao Tian Sect, Tang Chen?"
