Chapter 159 - Xiao Bai’s Promotion (2/2)

“Alright, you can consume the core now.” Qin Feng said to Bai Li. She was on the verge of promotion. Since there was no safe place for her to absorb the core in Chengbei as well, it was best to just wrap it up here.

Bai Li wasted no time and absorbed the remaining cores.

At the same time, twenty kilometers away from Qin Feng’s hover car, three E-tier aptitude users were hiding at the side of the main road.

“Why is there no sign of him? Has Qin Feng figured out our plan beforehand?”

“I don’t think so. Stay alert.”

“I wonder whether he is as strong as the rumors say.”

“He left the arena immediately after he killed Xin Guang. That skill was indeed powerful but it must have taken a toll on him. Otherwise, why would he hide inside the hotel for the last few days?”

“Just be careful!”

The three of them dared not take Qin Feng lightly.

One of them was an honorable elder of the Xin family. His position was like that of Tao Shichang but had an even higher reputation and final says in the family.

The other two were mercenaries hired by the Xin family with a huge bounty on Qin Feng’s head. If they manage to kill Qin Feng, 100 million would be awarded. Even if they were to fail, the Xin family had promised to compensate them for their effort with 10 million.

They happily took the offer because sometimes it was easier to kill a man than a beast.

No matter how powerful Qin Feng might be, he would not be able to take on three E-tier aptitude users at the same time. After all, Qin Feng was only at F-tier. They believed that Qin Feng would not survive their concerted assault.

Unfortunately, Qin Feng did not show up as expected after twenty minutes.

Just when they thought that their hidden ambush had ended in vain, a terrifying aura befell them from afar. The pressure from a beast king spread across the atmosphere and destabilized spacetime. Some small spatial rifts began to emerge around them.

Their faces turned pale instantly.

“E-tier beast king!” Even one hundred E-tier aptitude users would be wiped out in an instant by such a horrendous beast.

The three of them were restless.

“Qin Feng must have fled. There’s no point waiting any longer. We should head back.” The elder from the Xin family was clearly terrified.

The other two had no reason to object and they headed back to Chengyang at once.

In the wild, no matter how hard Xiao Bai tried to contain her power, the emperor aura still leaked out profusely and startled the beasts around them. Moving creatures near them had all fled for their lives.

“Alright. Let’s get back on the road.” Qin Feng turned back to the road and dispelled the dark runes.

The car sped up steadily on the empty road. Qin Feng did not even realize it when he passed by a car from the opposite direction.

However, those three in the car had noticed Qin Feng.

“The car just now!”

“It’s Qin Feng!”

“Turn around and follow him!”

The elder braked hard, made a u-turn, and stomped hard on the accelerator to chase after Qin Feng.

Qin Feng, who was driving leisurely up to that point, noticed the pursuer immediately and scanned the car with his conscious energy. His face turned wicked. ‘You have a death wish? I will grant you that!’
