The group of people came in aggressively, and the gray-clad unscrupulous merchant immediately spotted Yan Zhao.

"It's you!" Bao Hui exclaimed in surprise. This girl had taken a demon core from him without any reason; he hadn't settled the score for that yet, and even if she turned to ashes, he would still recognize her!

Originally, he had only called people to avenge the beating he received from Tu Shan Yu yesterday. He didn't expect to run into Yan Zhao by accident.

Although he couldn't gauge Yan Zhao's strength, if she was truly formidable, why did she run away yesterday? Moreover, there were many of them today, so they were not afraid!

Bao Hui sneered, "My Big Blade Sect's people are not to be trifled with! Brothers, capture her!"

The brothers Bao Hui had brought were all at least at the Qi Refining Great Perfection stage, with several of them being Foundation Establishment disciples. Such talent would be enough to enter the inner sect of a large sect.

Since she had swallowed the demon core yesterday, he would make her vomit it out!

The thugs behind him looked at Yan Zhao's face, exchanged glances, and showed hesitation. They had some sympathy for a beautiful girl.

Bi Lan's expression darkened as she stepped forward to protect Yan Zhao, "Who are you people? What do you want?"

Seeing that no one was moving, Bao Hui raised his voice, "What are you hesitating for?! Don't be fooled by her appearance; she's actually a monster! Anyone who can swallow a demon core is either a demon or a monster!"

Demon or monster?

The expression of Bao Hui's subordinates changed drastically, and their gaze toward Yan Zhao immediately shifted. To human cultivators, demons and monsters were both considered evil beings.

Tearing off the beautiful exterior, one could only wonder what lay beneath.

"Go! Avenge Brother Bao!"

The group swarmed forward, but before they got close, an invisible wave of energy pushed them back.

Bi Lan infused her spiritual power into the compass, activating the protective formation. But with so many people, her cultivation level wasn't high enough to hold it for long.

Soon, many people gathered on the street to watch, and several windows in the upper rooms of the inn opened.

Bao Hui's eyes lit up as he spotted the compass in Bi Lan's hand. "What a good item! I reckon this thing can sell for at least two hundred thousand spirit stones!"

Two hundred thousand!

The Big Blade Sect's people shivered, their eyes greedily fixed on Bi Lan.

Seeing more and more people watching, Bao Hui signaled to one of his underlings, who immediately shouted at the crowd, "What are you looking at?! The Big Blade Sect is seeking revenge; mind your own business!"

The onlookers dispersed somewhat, and Bao Hui commanded, "They're just two people with average cultivation; they're nothing to fear. Move quickly!"

Bi Lan pressed her lips together and infused another wave of spiritual power into the compass. The strength of the protective formation increased, pushing the Big Blade Sect members back.

However, this standoff couldn't last long. Bi Lan made a decisive decision, handing the compass to Yan Zhao and instructing her, "Junior Sister Yan, hold onto this and don't move."

Yan Zhao complied, holding the compass and standing still like a wooden stake.

Bi Lan moved forward alone, biting her right thumb to draw blood and forming a seal, pressing it onto the ground.
