Chapter 487: 487
The plans were going smoothly; in fact, they were so smooth that all of them were extra alert, worried that the Xiyang soldiers had planned it .
However, no matter how much they expected someone to ambush them, no matter how alert they were, the forest was completely silent, and no one appeared to deal with them .
After looting the corpses, and burning them to ashes, Xue Wei looked at his friends, and a sinister smile spread on his lips before he looked all around him .
"I would imagine that more teams should have been sent out, so it is time for us to begin hunting . "
The others were ecstatic when hearing that Xue Wei finally wanted to begin hunting the soldiers, and their hands were itching for a proper fight . So far, they had been ambushing their targets, and while this was necessary to ensure a swift and soundless method to kill their opponents, they did not feel their strength increase from gathering such easy kills .
But right now, the battle was in a rather tense period . They needed to fight a whole base by themselves, and thus they had to clean up as many groups they could find, and as effortlessly as possible .
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLan had no interest in interfering . He would step in at the very last moment, when they could no longer hold on, and when their bodies would be riddled with wounds, but he would not step in if he thought they could hold on, even if they had broken bones or serious injuries .
They were here to improve their strength, and if they knew that he would save them, the purpose of their fighting would be lost .
The group snuck through the forest . They were cautious and moved slowly . They observed their surroundings, and listened to all the sounds around them, in case someone else was closing in on them .
Bai Tianyi and Luoluo had their spiritual energy billowing out of their minds, shrouding them and their surroundings to ensure that no ambush was waiting for them .
But although they knew that they could search the surroundings with their spiritual energy, they were also aware that if they met someone stronger, that person would be able to hide their presence and inflict them with severe damage, so none of them relaxed .
They had walked for a few moments before they finally came across a group of people . These experts were also on high alert . They were observing their surroundings with high vigilance . The only reason they overlooked Xue Wei and his group was because they had no one as proficient in spiritual energy as Luoluo and Bai Tianyi .
Knowing that the group of people was heading straight for them, Xue Wei gestured for his friends to hide in the bushes and the tree crowns, and he too proceeded to hide himself in a place where he could not be seen .
By the time the group made it to their place, they were still on high alert, but they had not noticed Xue Wei and the others, as they had been shrouded by Luoluo and Bai Tianyi with spiritual energy .
They waited for the opportune moment, and just as they arrived in their midst, all of them jumped down, their attacks shining in the twilight, their eyes cold and murderous, and their lips curled into sinister smiles .
The Xiang experts were shocked beyond belief . Although they had been on high alert, they had not expected someone to jump at them like this .
Clearly, their scout had not sensed them, so they had to have appeared out of nowhere, the realization causing them to be stunned and scared .
But even so, they were seasoned warriors, and they knew how to react when under pressure .
They wielded their weapons skillfully, and their Qi sprung from their hands, their eyes solemn, but no panic could be seen within them .
When seeing this, the smiles on Xue Wei and his friends grew increasingly menacing . They were ecstatic to have encountered a group of true warriors . They had to be part of the elite of the military base, and encountering them meant that they could finally display their abilities to the fullest .
Forbidden Rush!
Kick of the Raging Tempest!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmXue Wei activated his movement technique . It was amongst the first techniques he had learned long ago from his heritage ring, but it had never let him down . Although the speed he could move with when activating the ability was not as much of a boost, as it was when he was weaker, every little helped .
At the same time, because it was a technique that could be used as a beginner practitioner, it did not use much Qi, so keeping it activated was just a slight boost .
A large tempest of energy appeared at Xue Wei’s feet as he executed the Kick of the Raging Tempest, and the swirling energy quickly dragged a few experts into the midst of the attack .
The winds were razor-like, further enhanced by the Qi, and they soon had numerous cuts on their skin . Although they were sturdy cultivators, the wounds would not close, as they had been opened by a martial arts technique .
Xue Wei was energetic and full of excitement as he saw one of the people rushing towards him .
Devouring Fist!
His fist connected with the approaching person, and he was knocked back, staggering multiple steps, before he looked at Xue Wei with horror in his eyes .
Xue Wei was about to rush back to him and continue the fight when he felt a strange pain in his heart .
He knew the origin of this pain all too well; it was the pain that came from the Monarch Piranha Flower .
Although it was not making an attack, it was reminding Xue Wei that it was there . Its purpose was clear . It wanted Xue Wei to use the vines that belonged to it to absorb some essence blood in order to grow stronger .
