Chapter 888: True Face (1/2)

The deal was made and they went into action the very night.

The Starbow family already planned to attack that very night, they decided to bring the whole family who is Astral Plane to the forest and just overwhelm Sam with numbers, what he wouldn't expect is, it is not just Sam who would be there.

Sam used the dimension drifter to bring the family head and some other people along with him to the forest as they waited in ambush.

The other party has more numbers, but Sam has more tricks up his sleeves.

The subordinates are already setting up the whole forest with different types of motion-activated bombs and devices.

There are many things other than just poison bombs that could harm an Astral Plane cultivator and they are going to use them to a full extent.

After arriving at the forest, the Dewber family members took positions and waited for the people to fall into traps.

As soon as they entered the forest, they already experienced the poison attack, and this time the bombs are a bit different. It is the combination of the nine poisons from Hydra and some of the devices have a single bullet that is made in a special way and also injects the fire poison into the victim's body.

The fire poison from one of the bi fangs.

It is just a Consummate level fire poison and it shouldn't affect in normal cases, but after inhaling a load of poison, it would cause some disruptions in energy flow as well as the instinctual healing of spiritual energy that the body offers while fighting with poison will be focused on the fire poison temporarily.

After all, its effects are short-term and immediate compared to normal poison and the instincts always go for immediate danger.

Then comes Sam's sniper attacks. Some of them are dead just from the poison bombs, but even if they don't, he can kill them with the sniper from afar.

But the other family is a family full of archers, they know how to deal with the ranged attack properly, even though it takes some time to get adjusted to a proper sniper rifle attack, they tried their best and sneaked deeper into the forest to stay out of range of the sniper.

Unfortunately, their efforts have minimal results, the only reason they are not dying altogether is that Sam couldn't shoot rapidly with a sniper.

Otherwise, they would be dead meat.

Still, as some people made their way inside, the subordinates went into action. They are extensively trained to face these kinds of situations.

The first thing they did is to leave tracks here and there, luring the other party away.

And leave enough tracks to separate them and thin their numbers down to a group of two and sometimes even one.

Then attack them with a group of two or three in an ambush and finish them off as fast as possible.

The family head of the Starbow family is feeling vexed as one member after another died like this.

He felt like something is wrong and soon he realized that he was lured into the trap. Sam didn't escape with his subordinates after that attack, he provoked them to come here and soon he saw some familiar figures.

The members from the Dewber family.

He understood what is going on and he also felt the two auras that are extremely dangerous coming near him.

”Everyone Retreat. Retreat immediately.”

The family head ordered a retreat, without a second thought, and moved towards the city.

Sam didn't continue the pursuit, he just used the dimensional drifter and took the dewber family head, the Raiju, and ten more guys with him while the rest continued the pursuit.

After fifteen minutes, the Starbow family forces returned and they are all holding a meeting within the front yard as the family head explained their current situation after activating the defensive formation which put the pursuers outside.

At this moment, they felt something coming towards them and before they knew it, a bunch of poison smoke grenades are coming out of nowhere.

Sam used a newly made grenade launcher and used his spatial element to make the grenade skip the farthest ends of their sensory range and appear in it when it was too late for the opponents to realize.

The dewber family head and Raiju went after the family head and the battle began.

The whole area turned into chaos.

Sam found some formation nodes and broke them down. He doesn't even have to worry too much and work on it too much, all that needed was a proper spatial explosion which turned the whole spiritual energy into chaos in that place deactivating the formation.

The battle became intense and Sam who is standing on the harbinger mainly provided support with sniper and with Yanwu and the rest also joining the fray, the battle is one-sided.

A family ruling the lands for centuries was turned to this state in one day.

Sam was really surprised by this outcome.

He expected some sort of war and resistance, but the very first trap succeeded.

This didn't even make sense to him.
