Brayden’s damaged figure fell heavily on the ground with a muffled bang, splashing large amounts of blood everywhere. At that time, Brayden’s gaze was disorganized, and there was no sound coming from him anymore. However, with the big hole that suddenly appeared on him, he looked highly savage. As his blood was yet to dry up, blood gushed out uncontrollably from his wounds, and in the blink of an eye, Brayden’s corpse where covered with his blood.
Marsha and Sebastian, who was still able to stand, went to Yohan, Heidi, and Nana to support them. Among them, Yohan was the one injured the most. First, his buttocks were stabbed by the alpha gopher’s long hair. Next, he directly suffered Brayden’s Blood Devouring Palm.
Thankfully, Yohan‘s meridians were not damaged, and the spiritual Qi in him was still flowing smoothly. After Sebastian gave Yohan a few healing pills, Yohan meditated and took a rest. Soon, his complexion appeared much better, and he stopped bleeding too. As for Heidi and Nana, their injuries were much lighter than Yohan’s, and they were fine after taking the pills.
Later, everyone cultivated for about an hour. When they once again turned to look at each other, they noticed a hint of joy and excitement in each other’s eyes, as well as a full sense of accomplishment. With everyone working together, they managed to kill a peak third-stage Pulse Control Realm cultivator this time. Although Brayden’s strength was greatly reduced as he was about to ascend, everyone’s concerted effort could not be ignored.
After the battle, the few of them developed an approval for one another. Before Marsha joined the team, Sebastian and the others often did tasks together, but those missions were relatively more straightforward. Unlike that time, they met with countless life-and-death, dangerous situations. Only through such an unpredictable mission with a narrow escape from death could everyone be tested. Hence, from that moment onward, everyone regarded each other as faithful companions, and they could trust one another to look out for them when facing enemies.
After a short rest and waiting until everyone was better, Marsha gave Sebastian a hinting look. This gaze made Sebastian aware of the respect Marsha had for him. After all, Sebastian was in the highest realm and strongest senior among them, and he led the team. However, their success at that time was also mainly because of Marsha’s help. If Marsha led the discourse this time, everyone might not disagree, but Sebastian might feel uncomfortable.
Nevertheless, Marsha used practical action to show his respect for Sebastian, his senior. This made Sebastian appreciative of Anderson, and he was touched too. Next, Sebastian took a deep breath and calmed himself. Then, he smiled. “Since everything is settled now, let’s see what treasures the Scorching Sun, one of the top ten bandits, have for us.”
When everyone heard that, their eyes immediately lit up, and they became excited. After all, these bandits would usually have valuables with them. Since they killed the infamous Scorching Sun, it was time for the most anticipated division of the spoils!
Under Sebastian’s lead, the crowd approached the hole that Brayden was hiding before. Even though Yohan’s bottom was still hurting, he also limped over and stuck his head out.
The Scorching Sun, Brayden, brought damage in South Earlington for many years. He was guilty of robbing homes, murder, and arson. Furthermore, Brayden killed countless sect disciples before, and many sects put him top of their bounty list. Hence, Brayden surely had tons of great treasures with him.
Later, Sebastian stood at the ring of the cave and softly pointed at it. Then, the ground suddenly made a muffled sound and collapsed, causing the hole to be five times bigger than before. In that instant, a small underground stone chamber about half an acre in size appeared.
Random jars were scattered all around the floor, and there were a few storage sacks around. As the crowd recalled how Brayden fought everyone empty-handed just now, everyone guessed that he also went out in a hurry and did not take the storage bags with him. Then, they jumped down and opened the jar one after another. In that instant, a pungent smell of medicinal herbs filled the room.
