Frank subconsciously turned his head, only to see a young man standing at the entrance of the alleyway. The golden sunlight shone down on his head, as if he was in a halo, and the young man smiled at him.

Frank's expression suddenly changed, he recognized this young man, it was because of them that he was reduced to such a state. A sinister look flashed across his eyes, he did not forget the man with the young man, even if he turned to dust, he would never forget.

Where is the man?

Frank's gaze swept behind the young man, then looked around in shock. He did not see the man's figure, and just as he was about to heave a sigh of relief, he saw a tall figure walk out from the corner of the wall behind the young man.

Seeing Rex, Frank's mind unavoidably recalled the miserable scene that happened that day. Back then, even he, who was in his best condition, could not defeat a man, let alone now.

A crazy voice in his head shouted for him to hurry up and run. It was impossible for these two people to suddenly come looking for him just to chat, and they definitely did not come at this time. However, their instincts told them that the other party was not friendly, and so he ran.

Ge Yan stood at his original position waiting for Rex, he would not participate in the following matters.

In less than ten minutes, Rex appeared in the direction that led deeper into the alley, walking steadily towards him, his hands, clothes, and face did not have a drop of blood on them, but he could smell a faint scent of blood, he had not realised how sharp his nose was.

"Done?" Ge Yan looked at Rex who had walked to his side and asked with a normal expression that seemed as if it was as natural as if he had already adapted to the cruel laws of this world.

Rex nodded, "Let's go."

It was time to achieve his next goal.

The Earth Scorpion Mercenary Regiment's Lauren was actually not as stupid as he thought he was. On the contrary, he was a very clever man, especially regarding matters relating to money, so after Frank left, he immediately called his subordinate who he had sent before to ask him a few questions. Afterwards, he revealed a meaningful look of playfulness and ruthlessness.

"Frank thought that I was a fool. He really thought that I did not know that it was not only Crow Mercenary Regiment that was fighting over the Holy Beast. The captain of the Black Wolf Mercenary Regiment, Locke, was even more interested in that Holy Beast than the Black Crow."

"Boss, then aren't we rich? I heard that the Black Wolf Mercenary Regiment is much richer than the crow's Mercenary Regiment. Back then, for the sake of finding people, they had placed a bounty of 1000 gold coins on us, so no matter what, we should be able to get a reward of over 10,000 gold coins." His men were extremely excited as they began to silently work out a plan.

Lauren grinned, "What does ten thousand gold coins count for? That's a young Holy Beast, a strong Magic Beast that can't be measured by gold coins is at least one hundred thousand gold coins."

"Boss is right, then should we go find Black Wolf Mercenary Regiment first?"

"That's right, Frank definitely did not say it on purpose, he must be planning something on Black Wolf Mercenary Regiment. We can quickly sell the information to them before he does, it wouldn't be too late for us to look for Crow Mercenary Regiment after we obtain the gold."

Lauren and his subordinates thought that they had made a very smart decision, but didn't know that it was because of their decision, they had actually given Rex and Ge Yan a chance.

The place that the crow Mercenary Regiment was temporarily staying at was in a bustling city street, so all the way there were many people. Rex did not have the chance to make a move, but his Black Wolf Mercenary Regiment was different.

The Earth Scorpion's Mercenary Regiment was very conspicuous, but when they walked into the two's line of sight, Ge Yan immediately noticed them.

"They're coming, they're coming."

Lauren did not bring all of his subordinates over, only roughly counting the seven of them. Other than him who was a Advanced Swordsman, the rest of them were all Intermediate Swordsman s or below.

Even the Advanced Swordsman Lauren didn't notice. After he turned a corner, he found a person standing in the middle of the road, but the other party did not seem to have any intention of giving way.

"Who are you?" Lauren stopped, he looked at Rex with a trace of viciousness in his eyes.

Rex looked at Lauren coldly, and walked towards him without saying a word.

Lauren immediately pulled out his sword, pointed it at Rex and said with killing intent filling his entire face: "Stop, do not come over, if not, do not blame me for being rude."

Rex acted as if he did not hear anything, raising his sword and chopping down without a word.

Lauren used his sword to block. With a "clang", the sword broke, and the half of the blade fell to the ground, stuck into a crack on the stone floor. It shook a few times before it stopped moving.

"You are the Great Swordsman?"

Above the Advanced Swordsman was the Great Swordsman. Only people with a strength one level above his could so easily cut apart his sword, Lauren was immediately terrified, he did not know when he had offended such a powerful person. He wanted to explain that it was a misunderstanding, but Rex did not give him the chance.

Blood spurted out of his wounds, and his hands were covered in blood. He screamed in fear when he saw his boss fall to the ground. The remaining six men ran for their lives.

Rex held his sword and chased, almost every one of them.

One of the mercenary soldiers was very smart, he knew that if everyone ran in one direction, they would die sooner or later, so after running for a distance, he immediately turned towards another direction. Turning his head to look, he realised that Rex was not chasing after them, and became very excited.

"I'm sorry, but you can't leave." This man was Ge Yan.

Hearing that, the mercenary's subordinate immediately knew that he was in cahoots with Rex. He was afraid of Rex, but was not afraid of him.

Ge Yan was indeed a little weak, after all he had not received any training before, but he was not alone.

Although it was not fatal, it caused the mercenary to lose his mobility and combat ability. His body was half burnt and he was spitting white foam on the ground, twitching non-stop, his eyes were wide open, as if he had discovered a secret, and stared straight at the arrogant face of Hei Ye, who was sitting in Ge Yan's hands.

Ge Yan walked over, picked up the sword on the ground and touched the mercenary a few times. After confirming that he did not have the ability to stand up anymore, he then patted Ye Wen's head and praised him: "Well done."

Hei Ye narrowed his eyes comfortably.

After a while, Rex walked over with his dripping blood sword. Seeing that the mercenary on the ground was not dead yet, and that the element of lightning still remained in the air, he could not help but frown, "Why didn't you kill him?"

"Waiting for you." Ge Yan said.

Rex did not budge, and looked at him meaningfully: "There has to be a first time."

Ge Yan went silent for a moment, and said after a long time, "In my original world, killing people is against the law."

"The piece of land you are standing on is the Ezra Continent."

Ge Yan sighed as he looked into the sky, his eyes filled with melancholy: "So that's why I'm trying so hard to adapt, don't tell me that you didn't notice that I have already improved a lot?"

"Nope." Rex said heartlessly.

"…" Ge Yan compromised, "Alright, I'll try."

Then, he stabbed the mercenary with the sword a dozen times before letting him die completely. Before dying, the mercenary revealed a look of hopelessness, he would rather bite his tongue and commit suicide if he knew.

Under Rex's strange gaze, Ge Yan quietly threw away the sword, his face full of disdain: "This sword is too blunt."
