Chapter 273 (2/2)
“He Yao’s ambitions are high and he’s not content with being behind someone. The Hunting War is a distinguished meeting of our Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy. If he manages to surpass Li Xuantong on it, then his fame within the Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy will surpass the latter and he’ll chase after Shen Cangsheng.” said Su Xuan.
Mu Chen’s expression was a little solemn. He fought with Li Xuantong before and naturally knew how powerful that fellow was. If He Yao does have the confidence to fight with Li Xuantong, then he naturally had his own powerful trump cards that couldn’t be underestimated.
And, right now, the situation between him and He Yao was like ice and fire. The instant the Hunting War was opened, he would definitely be listed in He Yao’s prey list and, at that time, the latter clearly won’t conceal himself.
In the Hunting War, everyone had to rely on their true abilities. And if Su Xuan helped them at that time, he would be mocked and ridiculed instead.
Mu Chen narrowed his eyes as he thought of He Yao’s dark gaze. Shortly after, he smiled, “Senior Sister Su Xuan, I know.”
Since he had already done those things, he would certainly not regret his actions. No matter how much He Yao had hidden his ability, if the latter thought that he could be easily suppressed, it would definitely not go so easily.
Su Xuan lightly nodded. Regarding this matter, a reminder would be enough. Although He Yao was really powerful, this youth that stood before her wasn’t any normal person, either. As for the results between them, it will only be known after they’ve clashed.
The group of people talked for a moment before Su Xuan’s party left. Mu Chen looked at their back figures and fell deep into his thoughts.
“What are you planning? Are you going to participate in the Hunting War?” Luo Li looked at Mu Chen as she asked.
“Since there are so many benefits in the Hunting War, I naturally have to participate in it.” Mu Chen smiled. The Spiritual Light Empowerment would clearly benefit one’s cultivation greatly. If he were to give it up, then the loss would be too great.
“Then, He Yao…” Luo Li slightly hesitated. If he participated in the Hunting War, then there wouldn’t be that many rules and regulations. Aside from not being able to kill, even if they were to heavily injure the other party, there wouldn’t be the slightest punishment.
He Yao’s schemes were deep and, clearly, he wasn’t a simple fellow to deal with. Facing this kind of opponent, one would have to maintain their vigilance and guard. Otherwise, who knew when he would be fatally wounded by the vicious vemon that was hiding in the dark.
“Rest assured, although He Yao has concealed a portion of his strength, I’m not someone that’s easy to deal with, either.” Mu Chen smiled, “Furthermore, don’t we have a month’s time? In this one month, I intend on entering the Lightning Territory to cultivate and make preparations for the Hunting War.”
Although he managed to obtain the White Dragon Spiritual Pearl, he hadn’t been able to fully grasp its profound intent. And since he had time right now, it’s best that he studied it a little bit. Who knows, it might be able to enhance his strength.
There would definitely be many dark horses in this Hunting War and by adding powerful opponents like He Yao, if he were to slack a even little bit, he might be thrown far away. And clearly, this situation wasn’t something that he’s willing to see.
“Then, I’ll accompany you.” Luo Li lightly smiled.
When Mu Chen heard what she said, he couldn’t stop smiling, “This is like the ‘Husband wielding the sword, facing all of the enemies, as the wife plays the zither, and follows the wave’.”
A smear of redness appeared on Luo Li’s face as she stared at Mu Chen. Thereafter, she quickened her steps towards Ye Qingling.
Mu Chen let out a huge laugh and quickly chased after the members of the Goddess Luo Association.
——
When Mu Chen’s group left, the Demon’s Gate headquarters was in ruins. He Yao, however, was solemnly looking at the headquarters that was left in ruins.
“Boss.” behind him, the faces of Chen Hou and the rest were ugly. Being beaten by Mu Chen today was a huge loss of face for them, the Demon’s Gate.
“Boss, if you were to take action, would that brat act so arrogantly?” Chen Hou said with a low voice. After all, he’s a core member of the Demon’s Gate, so, naturally, he knew some of He Yao’s secrets.
He Yao indifferently threw a glance at him, then coldly said, “My opponent is Li Xuantong. A freshman is still not worthy enough for me to reveal my strength.”
“But, you’re just going to let that brat go?” Chen Hou unwillingly said.
*Bang!*
When he finished speaking, a smear of viciousness flashed across He Yao’s eyes as he threw a palm out. Rolls of Spiritual Energy turned into a huge force as it instantly swept the ruined headquarters. All of the huge stones were turned into dust.
This scene made the members of the Demon’s Gate silent out of fear.
“Rest assured, in the Hunting War, I will make that brat kneel and beg forgiveness for the things that he has done today. A small freshman really thinks that he can stand on top of my, He Yao’s, head? What a reckless idiot!”
“For now, I’ll allow him to live for another month.”
He indifferently swept his sleeve as he turned around and left. His cold voice, however, spiraled around the ears of Chen Hou and the rest with a cold killing intent.
