Chapter 193 - Little Wingsy Goes Berserk (1/2)

The combatants’ faces were veiled, so only their calm and emotionless eyes could be seen surveying the woods around them as they stood with their backs facing one another.

Two corpses lay some distance away from them while warm blood trickled over the ground. A few moments later, the ground was stained red all over.

Ye Chen had used his Astral Body to lock in on these four top Tenth Level combatants, who seemed like four dead bodies to him as they emitted a strange aura of death. Their emotions remained completely unaffected even though two Earthly Venerable Rank powerhouses had died before their eyes. Furthermore, their means of attack was rather odd. Ye Chen wondered what kind of hidden weapon they were keeping in their sleeves that had allowed them to launch such brutal and vicious forms of attack.

When the four combatants detected no movements in their surroundings for quite a while, they gradually took a few steps and walked around while scanning the dense fog with eyes as sharp as a hawk’s. The moment they had detected the slightest movement, a storm of fine needles would be unleashed.

Tut-tut-tut, tut-tut-tut!

As those fine needles shot out and went through some of the trees, numerous fine holes were left in the tree trunks.

Ye Chen’s Astral Body was capable of sensing their every movement in advance, so he could avoid all of their attacks just in time. With the dense fog that Little Tanuki had created to cover their tracks, these top Tenth Level combatants could not pinpoint his exact location.

When those four combatants had sensed a body of chi locking in on them, they did not dare to let their guard down for even a moment. Their minds were strained to their limits as they seemed to feel cold bouts of wind blowing through the fog. Suddenly, a gold-armored soldier could be seen standing in mid-air amid the thick fog and slashing a saber down at the four of them.

The gold-armored soldier looked like a divine being as it stood in the air, and a hint of fear flickered in the eyes of the combatants.

Ye Chen, who was hidden deep within the forest, released a cold scoff. At last, these fellows were starting to fear him. He initially thought that these people were lifeless beings without any emotions at all!

The gold-armored soldier gave off a mighty presence comparable to that of a mid-Heavenly Venerable Rank powerhouse, so as this powerful presence weighed down on the four combatants, they immediately felt as though a thousand-catty load was hanging off each of their bodies. It became extremely difficult for them to even take one step. As they struggled to raise their heads, they saw a saber ablaze with purple flames slashing down at them from above.

The four of them were sent flying in a loud explosive noise. A terrifying ten-meter-long and two-to-three-meter-deep trench were left in the ground while some of the surrounding trees were instantly devoured and turned to ashes by the purple flames.

The four combatants were unable to withstand the attack from the gold-armored soldier and were killed all at once!

As expected, Astral Externalization could indeed produce formidable combat powers. Ye Chen was just about to send Little Wingsy a message to escape when he suddenly noticed that Little Wingsy had encountered some problem, so he withdrew his Astral Body right away and rushed in the direction where Little Wingsy was located.

It took Little Tanuki only a short while to collect the Heaven-Earth Pouches of the dead combatants and caught up to Ye Chen. This greedy Little Tanuki would never allow any Heaven-Earth Pouch to slip under her radar!

After putting away those Heaven-Earth Pouches, Ye Chen kept a constant watch on Little Wingsy using his Astral Body.

More than ten people were gathered around Little Wingsy’s current location. Among them, there were two Heavenly Venerable Ones, three Earthly Venerable Ones, four top Tenth Level combatants as well as a few other Eighth Level and Seventh Level combatants. These people were scattered all over the area and had secretly surrounded Little Wingsy.

“There should be six more of our people. Why aren’t they here yet?” Dongmen Yingyang frowned and suddenly heard a loud noise echoing from afar. Judging by that fearsome and mighty sound, the attacker was most likely as powerful as a Heavenly Venerable One. Thus, his expression fell as he figured that the other six men were probably dead.

“Let’s seize him first!” Sikou Fengyan huffed. Then, four top Tenth Level masked combatants immediately came together in pairs and pulled out two long ropes before moving toward Little Wingsy.

These two ropes were not very thick and were entirely white as snow. However, it was difficult to tell what material they were made of.

Due to the formidable power Little Wingsy possessed, these men could not fight him recklessly. Therefore, they had come up with such an idea.

Little Wingsy glared at the four Tenth Level combatants and tried to figure out what these people were planning to do.

As Sikou Fengyan glided through the air over Little Wingsy’s head, a big net descended and trapped Little Wingsy.

“What is this thing?!” Little Wingsy was caught off guard and was unable to avoid getting trapped by the net. However, as he tried to tear the big net apart, the net would not budge no matter how much force he had used.

Soon, the four top Tenth Level combatants started running around Little Wingsy in circles and binding the ropes around him repeatedly to tie him up firmly.

“Let go of me!” Little Wingsy’s face was flushed with anger while he kept clawing at the big net with his small hands.

“Stop wasting your energy. This net is made of Snowfield Gastrodia Roots[1], so it’s incredibly tough. You won’t be able to cut through this net even with a Tier Five spirit artifact. As for this white rope, it’s made of the silver fibers of Snowfield Gastrodia Roots that have lived for centuries. You can never rip it apart that easily!” Sikou Fengyan smirked slightly. It had cost them quite an effort just to capture this child alive. This big net alone was a priceless item.

“Hurry up and release me or I’m going to get angry!” Little Wingsy’s face grew redder as he looked furious.

The four top Tenth Level combatants kept pulling at the ropes but could only manage to move around Little Wingsy in circles while Little Wingsy remained rooted to his spot like an iron pole.

Both Dongmen Yingyang and Sikou Fengyan could not help sighing in amazement at Little Wingsy’s shocking strength. Although he had been tied up firmly, the men were still incapable of dragging him away.
