Swoosh!

Swoosh!

Swoosh!

Only seconds after Chen Xiaobei made himself invisible, hundreds of men tore through the dark forest like phantoms.

From their clothing and their gear, Chen Xiaobei could tell that a larger half of them were Tenshou warriors, while the smaller half were Royal Dome soldiers.

This time though, the commanders leading the group were two very powerful elites!

Ding!

[Combat power: Early phase of God-Ascension cultivation; Lifespan: 1,311years; Health: 600,000; Combat power: 600,000]

The Netherspirit Battlescouter focused on an arrogant-looking young man in Samurai armor. He was holding a katana which was stained red on the blade no doubt, he was the one who had attacked the white lion!

Wow! 600,000 combat power! Chen Xiaobei muttered in surprise. If Im not mistaken, this guy ranks fifth on the Nine-Zones Earth leaderboard! On land, hes about the same level as Ao Liancheng. Only in the sea, however, would he lose to Ao Liancheng!

Ding!

[Cultivation: Early phase of God-Ascension cultivation; Lifespan: 1,152years; Health: 500,000; Combat power: 500,000]

The other commander was from Royal Dome, armed in a sharp and flashy protective covering. However, in both cultivation and demeanor, he was one stratum beneath the Tenshou youth, and at forty, he was no longer qualified for the Nine-Zones Earth leaderboard.

Prince Wugui Kojiro*! The Royal Dome commander said. The green light came from that ravine over there! Could it be some sort of tiancai dibao* descending?

Wugui Kojiro narrowed his eyes, and said in a complacent tone, How would I know? The only way to find out is to go there!

The Royal Dome commander nodded. Prince Wugui Kojiro is too precious! I, Ximen Hanfeng am a tough man. So, I will go take a look!

You? Are you going to keep the Tiancai Dibao all to yourself? Wugui Kojiro smirked. I saw the green light with my own eyes. Even if I do let you go on your own, dont even think of hogging everything!

Prince Turtle*, what kind of person do you take me for? Ximen Hanfeng smiled ingratiatingly. Our families are allies. Why would I do something that will destroy our friendship? If you dont trust me, then just come with me!

Heh, I was just kidding! Wugui Kojiro chuckled. When General Ximen comes back later, you wouldnt mind letting me check your storage bracelet, would you?

Er Ximen Hanfeng hesitated for a moment and then shot the prince an awkward smile. Of course not!

Great! Wugui Kojiro smiled. Tenshou warrior, listen up! I want three units to follow general Ximen!

Yes, sir! Immediately, thirty Tenshou warriors stepped out, katanas strapped to their side as they gathered next to Ximen Hanfeng.

Listen up, Royal Dome soldiers Ximen Hanfeng began.

But Wugui Kojiro cut him off, Why? Are there not enough people, general Ximen? Let me send you another three units, how about that?

I Ximen Hanfeng stammered. No No need. Three units are enough.

After that, Ximen Hanfeng left for the ravine with the thirty Tenshou warriors.

Wugui Kojiro was obviously suspicious in nature and did not trust Ximen Hanfeng at all. Not only did he want to check Ximen Hanfengs storage bracelet, but he also sent thirty of his men to keep an eye on him.

Furthermore, Wugui Kojiro was not willing to go to the ravine himself obviously worried that there might be life-threatening danger there.

To put it bluntly, he was ordering Ximen Hanfeng around like a dog!

Wugui Kojiro wanted a share of benefit but used Ximen Dafeng as his cannon fodder in case there was danger!

Not only was this a selfish act, but it was also very spiteful of him. He could not care less about the welfare of his ally.

Ximen Hanfeng knew that all too well but he had no choice. In strength, position and qi field*, Wugui Kojiro was way more superior to Ximen Hanfeng. He could only swallow his discontent and be a good, obedient dog.

Chen Xiaobei observed all of that from afar.

Little Turtle is not going! This is my chance! Watch me take them down without using any weapons!

Chen Xiaobei changed to an invisible state.

Formless, invisible, and quiet, Chen Xiaobei made his way to the ravine completely unnoticed.

The bottom of the ravine was in complete darkness!

Even with a torchlight, the visibility was still very low.

Ximen Hanfeng instructed, Everyone, split up and search. One of you can come with me. I wont keep the Tiancai Dibao to myself!

At that, all the Tenshou warriors split up leaving the most experienced warrior to follow Ximen Hanfeng to keep a close watch on his every move.

Irritated, Ximen Hanfeng deliberately quickened his pace to make the journey more strenuous for the warrior.

He was able to stretch the distance between them to about ten meters so that the warrior had to chase after Ximen Hanfengs shadow.

Crack!

Suddenly, there was loud, crisp sound.

In the darkness, Chen Xiaobei, like the legendary Ace Assassin, put one hand over the warriors mouth and the other hand at the back of his head, and twisted, breaking the poor warriors neck before he could even react.

Even the real Ace Assassin was not as good as that!

Huh? Whats that sound? Ximen Hanfeng was very alert. He immediately turned around to inspect the situation.

But with the 10-meter distance between them and only a torchlight, he could only make out a rough silhouette.

General Ximen! I found something! Chen Xiaobei used True Sound to imitate the middle-aged warriors voice.

You found something? Stay where you are! Im coming over now! Ximen Hanfeng ran over excitedly.

Chen Xiaobei animated the Galactic Secret Rune Cloths special ability so that the Nightstalker Outfit changed and became exactly like the Tenshou warriors!

Where is it? Tell me! Ximen Hanfeng asked impatiently, searching the surroundings without so much as glancing at Chen Xiaobei. He did not even notice that he was actually talking to Chen Xiaobei and not the Tenshou warrior.

Its over there in the crevice of the rock! Theres a faint green light! Chen Xiaobei simply pointed towards a random direction.

Where? How come I dont see anything? Ximen Hanfeng turned in all corners until he gave up and shouted in frustration, You bastard! How dare you make fun of me! I can kill you with one slap!

Ximen Hanfeng could not afford to offend Wugui Kojiro, so he leaped at the opportunity to vent his anger at the Tenshou warrior.

Its there! Chen Xiaobei answered. Wait here. Ill show it to you!

Do you think Im blind? Ximen Hanfeng hissed. If you cant show it to me, I will tear you into pieces!

Look! Its here! Chen Xiaobei walked up to Ximen Hanfeng and pointed at a random stone wall.

Ximen Hanfeng focused all his attention on Chen Xiaobeis finger.

Thus, the golden opportunity for the Ace Assassin to kill his target!
