C97 Set up (1/2)
Half a day's time was nothing more than the blink of an eye to a martial artist.
As for Qin Shaojie, he carefully covered up his tracks and quietly left the Holy Flame Academy. Other than Su Lao and a few other people, no one else knew that Qin Shaojie had left the Holy Flame Academy and was only pretending that he was hiding in a small island at the Sacred Heart Lake.
Not long after Qin Shaojie left the Holy Flame Academy, pigeons flew in different directions towards the outside of the academy.
Night gradually descended. Although there was still the shadow of the twilight, the entire sky was gradually covered by darkness. Whether it was the moonlight that leaked through the clouds, or not, it was barely able to illuminate the earth.
Qin Shaojie's figure stopped a few miles away from Jiang She Town. This position was rather awkward, because he was quite a distance away from the Fragrant Sky Garden and was located in the middle of the area between the two towns.
If it was a flat land, it did not matter. However, there were several hills and forests here. Although there was usually a lot of people coming and going here, for some reason, it appeared rather quiet today.
His gaze swept across the forest in front of him that was a little taller than him, and the corner of Qin Shaojie's mouth raised up imperceptibly.
He then turned into a black shadow and disappeared into the darkness of the night, heading towards the depths of the forest. He had to pass through in order to reach Jiang She Town.
”Come out. If you don't make a move now, you won't have another chance.”
Suddenly, Qin Shaojie also shouted from underneath a big tree. If they really were to make a move, it would be the most difficult time here. Otherwise, if they left this forest, the moment there would be movement, it would definitely alarm the strong warriors in Jiang She Town. Although the majority of the strong people in Jiang She Town would not meddle, but don't forget, there were still many law enforcers in the Holy Flame Academy. If those enforcers found out that the one being attacked was a student of the Holy Flame Academy, then things would become troublesome.
Although every year, there would always be indicators of a student's death in Holy Flame Academy, these indicators could only be found outside of Jiang She Town, in those places, life and death experiences could only be found. If there were any problems inside Jiang She Town, then no one could bear the anger of the Holy Flame Academy.
Of course, if he were to do it unbeknownst to anyone and if his methods were brilliant enough, there was nothing he could do about it. After all, every year, a portion of the students would die for no reason.
”Although I don't know how you sensed our existence, it can't change your ending.”
As Qin Shaojie's voice fell, a low and deep voice emerged from the darkness not too far away. The light in the forest was even dimmer, and even the owner of the voice could not see his face clearly.
However, the chilling murderous intent in his words was not concealed at all.
Even though he had been extremely careful along the way, he had not expected that Qin Shaojie had still discovered him. This made the man who had spoken a little surprised, because he knew that Qin Shaojie only had Genuine Force, so under normal circumstances, he would not have been able to detect his existence.
He did not guess wrong on this point. Qin Shaojie did not detect his existence at all, but he was sure that they must have attacked him here.
When he left the Holy Flame Academy, he seemed to be extremely careful and didn't disturb anyone, but he deliberately revealed a few undetectable signs at a few places. If there really was someone who tried to make a move on him, then those actions that seemed so easily blurred was enough to attract some people's attention.
Therefore, although Qin Shaojie's departure was due to Qin Zhu's help, it was still not a method that he used to lure some people over. He did not like being passive, but he liked the feeling of having everything in his hands.
It was so quiet that not even the chirping of insects could be heard. There was only one possibility of this happening, and that was that there was a powerful aura hidden within. Even the insect would not dare to cry out in front of this aura.
”You seem very confident.”
Qin Shaojie said with a sneer as his gaze locked onto the man with a rather robust figure.
”There should be a formation here. Basically, it is unlikely to attract the attention of other places.”
The man didn't lower his voice as he spoke, as if he was speaking in a very normal manner. The real reason for this wasn't because he was confident in his ability to kill himself or because he was fearless. It was because he wasn't worried about attracting the attention of others at all. To be able to do this only had to do with formations.
”As expected of your life, which is being offered a high price. You don't seem to match up with your age.”
The man raised his head and laughed, and then, amidst the rustling sounds in the forest, several figures rushed over from different directions, and then, several people revealed an oval shape, surrounding Qin Shaojie in the center.
These few people had clearly prepared a great array here long ago, and were waiting for Qin Shaojie's appearance. But to deal with Qin Shaojie, who was just a brat in their eyes, these people had to put in a lot of effort.
Six people?
Looking around, Qin Shaojie was also surprised. He himself was only at the Genuine Force, yet he had actually dispatched six people at once. Furthermore, he had the protection of a great formation. This was no small feat.
Moreover, the invisible pressure that seeped out from their bodies made Qin Shaojie very sure that their strengths were all at Three Spiritual Realms.
If the six Three Spiritual Realms s were to join hands against Qin Shaojie, no one would believe it even if word spread.
”Looks like all of you are afraid of the method I used last time.”
He raised his eyebrows. The reason why these people were like this, if he wasn't mistaken, was because he had killed Three Spiritual Realms at the entrance of the Exquisite Auction House, causing a lot of people to feel an extreme sense of pressure. It had to be said that even their Three Spiritual Realms had been instantly killed by Qin Shaojie. Although they knew that Qin Shaojie must have used some sort of treasure, it was still enough to make them feel fear.
