Chapter 863 - Hunting (1/2)

”Hmph! I know what you are thinking! We are the Soaring Cloud Sect, the number one sect in the world of martial arts. How dare you think of asking those rubbish sects for help? Have you thought about what my master would think?” Ye Tianshun laughed sarcastically as he mentioned Feng Tianqi's name.

”Ehh…” When Ye Tianshun brought up Feng Tianqi's name, Ma Xuantong became speechless. After all, Feng Tianqi was a god-like existence in the Soaring Cloud Sect. Nobody dared to go against his will. Now that Ye Tianshun had become Feng Tianqi's personal disciple, nobody dared to challenge his opinion.

”Hmph! I would rather die than kneel before Jiang Fei and beg for his help!” Ye Tianshun thought to himself. At the same time, he was dragging the entire Soaring Cloud Sect down with him.

”A few of you, check if there's something to eat outside!” Ma Xuantong sighed as he said to a few elders.

”Yes, brother!” The elders looked at each other. The communication device was in Ma Xuantong's hands. Since Ma Xuantong did not want to go against Ye Tianshun, they were not able to contact the other sects. Moreover, they were not as courageous as Chen Xuanming and Feng Xuanyi. Therefore, they could only do as Ma Xuantong instructed.

Although everyone knew that it was futile trying to hunt for food around the mountain, they had to try their luck.

”Shh! I smell prey!” At the same time, over ten figures had also arrived near the mountain.

”Boss, should we attack?” One of the Scarlet Hunters asked.

”We're not in a hurry. Let the prey move around. Their blood will taste better then!” Blood Baron smiled devilishly. His handsome face suddenly looked very creepy.

”What do we do?” Another Scarlet Hunter asked.

”We'll let them exercise, of course!” Blood Baron smiled as he waved. The remaining figures all followed after him as he dashed forward.

”Brothers, I think we'll all die of exhaustion if this goes on!” One of the Soaring Cloud Sect's elders complained. Since they had left the mountain to hunt for food, they were able to speak freely as Ye Tianshun was not around.

”Ahh! Everyone knows! But what can we do? We can't afford to go against the Grand Elder. Meanwhile, the Sect Master is afraid of upsetting Feng Tianqi, which is why he won't disagree with Grand Elder!” Another elder sighed.

”Come on, let's keep hunting! We must at least find something so that the disciples won't starve!” One of the elders in the back said helplessly.

”Hold on… Something doesn't feel right!” One of the elders in the front frowned.

”What happened?!” Someone else asked immediately.

”I don't know! But it's strange here. It's too quiet! It's fine if there aren't any small animals around. However, why have the insects stopped making any sounds?” The leading martial artist wondered aloud.

”Hehe, that's because we have arrived!” A voice came out of nowhere. It sounded close yet far.

”Who is that?” The elders of Soaring Cloud Sect reacted swiftly by forming a circle to protect their lower-level disciples.

”Haha. These martial artists are rather alert. Interesting!” Another voice could be heard. However, the martial artists were still unable to tell where the voice was coming from.

”Oh no! We might have been ambushed by the mutants!” Another elder of the Soaring Cloud Sect said with a frown.

”Send the signal to call for help!” As the martial artists could not determine their opponents' capabilities, the external chief Elder Ge Xuanzhong immediately decided to call for help.
