Chapter 550: The Unique Nie Tian (2/2)

“However, we exhausted every means we could think of, and still failed to catch him. Not just that, he even managed to kill many of us.

“That was my most humiliating experience of my whole life.

After hearing these words, all of the young leaders’ expressions flickered slightly, and they contemplated her words with furrowed brows.

Moments later, Su Lin from the Heaven Palace Sect said, “If that’s the case, I agree to put our operations on hold and wait for good news from Nie Tian.”

After her, all the other leaders expressed their support for Nie Tian’s plan one after another.

Dong Li was full of smiles, as if she were pleased with their attitudes. With her jade-like fingers, she tucked a few loose hairs behind her ears. Eyes glittering with charming light, she said in a slow and casual manner, “Okay, so let’s wait for Nie Tian’s update. I personally believe that you won’t be disappointed by the results. It won’t be long before you realize that the price you paid was well worth it.”

Everyone could see the unwavering confidence she had in Nie Tian. With every word she said, she seemed to be defending Nie Tian’s unmatched battle prowess.

Standing among the people from the Realm of a Hundred Battles, Gu Haofeng looked very grim, as if his heart was filled with bitterness.

The way Dong Li had defended Nie Tian, the unwavering confidence she had in him, and the heartfelt joy in her eyes when she talked about him had made Gu Haofeng realize how special Nie Tian was to Dong Li.

That joyful look that appeared in her eyes when she mentioned Nie Tian’s name was something he had never seen before.

At this moment, Gu Haofeng finally realized that, in Dong Li’s eyes, Nie Tian was completely different from the other men she had played like puppets.

…

After receiving support from Dong Li and all the other team leaders, Nie Tian ended his scouting and prepared spill some outsider blood.

After scouting the island for so long, he had realized that the outsiders of different races seemed to know that they would encounter humans after coming to this place.

Therefore, after their arrival, they hadn’t started killing other outsider races the way human Qi warriors had killed each other the moment they set foot on the island.

Instead, they had come together and divided the island, and only gathered spiritual materials and medicinal plants in the areas assigned to them.

High-tier Demons were gathered by the lake, Phantasms were searching along the river, and Fiends were roaming the marshland.

Since the high-tier Demons and Phantasms were both looking for Pei Qiqi, Nie Tian suspected that she must have been last seen in those areas.

He didn’t plan to attract the attention of the high-tier Demons and the Phantasms before finding Pei Qiqi.

Therefore, he decided to start with the weaker outsiders.

After searching for a short time, he discovered three outsiders with the help of his Heaven Eyes.

They were tall, burly, and covered in black scales. Their bodies exuded intense auras of flesh and blood.

Convinced that there weren’t any other outsiders in the vicinity, Nie Tian snuck over and suddenly pounced on them.

He finished them off within a very short time.

With the three corpses lying before him, Nie Tian sent a wisp of flesh power into each of them as he unleashed Life Drain.

Moments later, wisps of extremely rich flesh power flew back to him, filling him with vigor and life force.

The three outsiders were all roughly two meters tall. Even though they were significantly smaller than fourth grade spirit beasts, their flesh power was equal to theirs, if not stronger.

Freshly killed spirit beasts wouldn’t lose all of their flesh power immediately after their deaths. The same went for outsiders.

Upon entering his body, the wisps of rich flesh power Nie Tian had withdrawn from the outsider corpses quickly morphed into tiny, crimson crystals that flowed to every corner of his body, strengthening his vigorous aura of flesh and blood, as well as his meridians, bones, and internal organs.

It wasn’t long before he finished refining the rich flesh power. Then, after disposing of the three corpses, he headed towards his next target.

Over the following days, he struck at and killed groups of minor outsider races like a bloodthirsty ghost.

Every time he took out a group of outsiders, he would message Dong Li, informing her of his battle results.

He did this to assure the people on the other island of the smooth progress of his plan, and to urge them not to interrupt his hunt.
