Chapter 401 - Switch Target (2/2)

Liu Bei studied and practiced the dark art. That made him look like he was seventeen years old while in fact, he was already twenty seven.

Reaching C-tier at the age of twenty seven meant that his talent was even higher than that of Gao Yukang’s.

“Let’s roll!” Lei Ying said in a deep voice. The others nodded and five of them changed their direction toward Gao Yukang.

Gao Yukang’s brows were deeply furrowed now.

He made fun of Lei Ying while completely forgetting about the possibility that he could very well be their next target. That was highly probable as Lei Ying held a grudge over him after Gao Yukang had publicly opposed him just recently.

“This toxic b.a.s.t.a.r.d!” Gao Yukang trembled in anger.

As suspected by the Leitang Organization, another member of Gao Yukang’s party had just attained C-tier status. Nonetheless, two C-tiers in his party would still come up a little short as compared to the small group heading their way now.

Gao Yukang looked at Qin Feng on his communicator’s screen. “Qin Feng, if you could rush back to the colony in one and a half days, then I believe you can reach me in time too. If we need to clash with Lei Ying, then I will pay you 100 billion after this. If not, you will get the chance to hunt another beast emperor. We will split 4:6. Deal?”

This was a much better offer than the previous one.

“Deal!” Qin Feng agreed without much hesitation.

After working for three days straight, the Fengli mercenaries were exhausted. They stayed back to dissect the Ivory Crown Emperor and split the loot for sale. Qin Feng only brought Bai Li with him this time to the Longchuan mountains.

Longchuan was large but Qin Feng and Bai Li could move quickly through Bai Li’s spatial ability. They caught up to Lei Ying’s troop in less than a day.

Qin Feng scanned them from afar and roughly grasped the strength of the five-man troop.

Gao Yukang’s party had two C-tiers. Qin Feng and Bai Li were C-tiers, too. It might appear to be a four vs. five battle but Qin Feng was confident that his side would emerge victorious.

This was because Bai Li was no ordinary C-tier.

Qin Feng and Bai Li skipped ahead to rendezvous with Gao Yukang.

At the exact same moment, Lei Ying sensed something and raised his head toward the point where Qin Feng had just disappeared from.

“What? You sensed something?”

“I sensed a familiar force. But it disappeared too quickly for me to identify who that might be.”

Every apt.i.tude user’s consciousness was different but it was still hard to distinguish them with such a short contact.

Regardless, Lei Ying could not shake the bad feeling lingering in his mind.

Half a day later, Lei Ying and co. finally reached Gao Yukang’s party.

They heard the loud noise of battle as soon as they closed in.

The group was baffled at first but immediately realized what was happening.

“Gao Yukang must have guessed our intention and decided to hunt down the beast preemptively.”

“But we still made it on time!”

“Gao Yukang, you have Qin Feng to blame for your downfall!”

Lei Ying snickered and signaled to the others. Lightning began to cover his body.

Flas.h.!.+

He immediately burst into speed. The other four were ancient warriors and had learned qinggong. They stayed close behind Lei Ying.

The five-man group charged straight toward the battle.

Awoo!

Boom Boom Boom!

The beast emperor shrieked for one last time and the battle sound abruptly ended after that.

Lei Ying’s group reached the battlefield almost at the same time the beast had fallen.

The battle took place at a valley between two mountains. The entire place was stained with fresh blood.

A giant beast was seen lying at the center of the valley.

“Beast emperor!” Lei Ying was excited and prepared to lunge down.
