Chapter 672: Treacherous Lone Wolf

Chapter 671: Treacherous Lone Wolf

Aside from these two teams, which seemed to be the strongest, there were three other weaker teams made up of several late-stage Medial Grade Martial Monarchs.

These people should be from Rank 8 sects, like the Rising Sky Pavilion, in the eighteen southern provinces. In those sects, one only had to advance to peak late-stage Medial Grade Martial Monarch to become true inheritors.

True inheritors did not lack resources. They would not risk their lives to kill these notorious bandits for the sake of Medial Grade Spirit Gathering Pearls.

However, of these strong cultivators, the one that attracted Xiao Chen’s attention was a lone white-haired cultivator.

This white-haired cultivator had a faint scar on his face. He was dressed in white clothes and appeared very clean, simple, and peaceful.

However, Xiao Chen detected a deeply buried viciousness in the depths of that person’s eyes, completely belying his outward appearance.

If Xiao Chen’s Mental Energy had not been much stronger than that of regular cultivators, he would not have noticed this peculiarity.

This person was also a peak late-stage Medial Grade Martial Monarch. Furthermore, based on his aura, he was no weaker than the man in black and the girl in yellow.

Without saying anything, Xiao Chen paid the bill and asked for a good room. After he took a bath, he immediately started using Spirit Gathering Pearls to cultivate.

The night arrived quickly, and a bright moon hung in the sky, giving off a gentle glow. The world seemed quiet and peaceful.

“Dong! Dong! Dong!”

Knocking came from the door. Xiao Chen opened his eyes and stopped cultivating to answer it.

A member of the yellow-clad girl’s team stood outside the door. Like that yellow-clad girl, this person was also a pretty girl, one dressed in green.

This girl smiled gracefully and said, “You must be the elite disciple of the Supreme Sky Sect, right?”

Under the moonlight, this girl looked very beautiful when she laughed. She exuded a certain charm that tugged at Xiao Chen’s heartstrings.

This girl probably cultivated some sort of Charm Technique. She executed this technique as she spoke. However, it was useless against Xiao Chen. This girl’s Charm Technique was far weaker than Leng Yue’s.

Using a Charm Technique on Xiao Chen for no reason was already tantamount to attacking him. He focused his gaze and immediately used his Spiritual Sense to break this girl’s Charm Technique.

He said bluntly, “Don’t bother trying such tricks on me. If you have something to say, just say it. If there is nothing, don’t disturb my cultivation.”

The girl in green took a step back. As her Charm Technique had been broken, her complexion appeared somewhat unsightly, and she felt unhappy with Xiao Chen. This fellow is clearly only an Inferior Grade Martial Monarch, yet he speaks so rudely.

However, this girl did not change her expression as she said, “Since I came in the middle of the night, naturally there is something important. If I am not wrong, you must be here for Lone Wolf as well.”

Xiao Chen did not deny it. He gently nodded his head, wanting to hear what the other party had to say.

“In that case, this makes things simpler. Lone Wolf is not easy to deal with. The Full Moon Pavilion’s Young Master Qiu Yi and my Senior Sister, the Thousand Mystery Sect’s Zhuo Ping, wish to gather everyone to deal with him together.”

“As for Lone Wolf’s head, we will fight over this later by relying on our own abilities. This will save us unnecessary trouble before we deal with Lone Wolf.”

As the green-clad girl explained leisurely, she extended an invitation to Xiao Chen.

Of the teams that were here, the two led by this pair were the strongest. When they worked together to extend an invitation, it was actually more of a threat.

If you did not agree, they might decide to deal with you in advance to forestall problems.

If you agreed, after the battle was over, these two people were the most likely to be able to obtain the proof of completion. Under such circumstances, this essentially blocked the other teams from trying to take advantage of the situation for their personal gain.

Xiao Chen smiled bitterly in his heart. This was an open conspiracy.

Even if he recognized the plot, he had no choice but to agree. Otherwise, he would not even get the chance to compete.

Following the green-clad girl, Xiao Chen arrived at a sky deck at the top of the inn. The five teams and other individuals that Xiao Chen had seen during the day were all gathered here.

The white-haired cultivator that Xiao Chen had paid particular attention to stood in the corner, appearing tranquil.

When the black-clad man saw Xiao Chen arrive, he immediately walked over and smiled warmheartedly. “This brother, I am Full Moon Pavilion’s Qiu Yi. Welcome to the team.”

At the same time, Qiu Yi introduced the other people on the team to Xiao Chen. When it was the white-haired man’s turn, he said, “This is Brother Zhong Li from the north. Like you, he is a bladesman, and he is pretty good.”

After Xiao Chen introduced himself, he went to a corner alone and looked at the City Lord’s Residence below.

The City Lord’s Residence’s defenses did not seem to have been strengthened, as if they had not received any news. It appeared very peaceful under the moonlight.

“I don’t know if Lone Wolf will come tonight or not.”

“Lone Wolf has struck several nights consecutively. We had to put in everything we had, and we only managed to push him into retreat. We cannot let him escape now.”

Two of the people on the team chatted with each other. When Xiao Chen heard them, he was surprised. He had not expected Lone Wolf to have appeared already.

The leader, Qiu Yi, said, “Everyone, do be careful tonight. Lone Wolf has the bloodline of the White Wolf Race. During the full moon, his strength increases severalfold. Tonight is not a good night to deal with him.”

“Boom!”

Right after Qiu Yi spoke, a black figure came from below the golden full moon in the distance, quickly flying over.

A baleful aura covered him, a horrifying aura that seemed to undulate like waves. Even from a distance, it gave everyone goosebumps.

“He is coming!” Everyone’s expressions changed, and they all perked up.

“Xiu! Xiu!”

Qiu Yi’s and Zhuo Ping’s eyes lit up. They leaped off the sky deck together with their companions, quickly heading for Lone Wolf.

The others took in deep breaths and revealed excited expressions as they leaped off.

The white-haired cultivator, Zhong Li, glanced at Xiao Chen and said, “Brother Xiao, both you and I are alone. How about we work together?”

Xiao Chen smiled gently and replied, “I had the same thought too.”

Ten-odd figures flashed in the quiet night. A strong killing Qi spread out, filling the bright moonlight with a cold, stern atmosphere.

“Bang! Bang! Bang!”

At the very front, Qiu Yi and Zhuo Ping had already intercepted Lone Wolf. They exchanged forceful moves in the air.

Horrifying energy burst out in the night sky, giving off lights of different colors. Heavy explosions rang out continuously.

Before Xiao Chen and Zhong Li arrived, they saw some weaker cultivators trying to help but getting knocked back.

When the two got nearer, Xiao Chen discovered that Lone Wolf, who was wearing black leather armor, also wore a mask concealing his countenance.

Even though Lone Wolf fought one against two, facing Qiu Yi’s and Zhuo Ping’s sharp attacks, he did not reveal any gaps in his defense. He could even take time to block attacks from other people.

As Lone Wolf moved around, he occasionally found openings in the defenses of some unfortunate cultivators. He would attack with his baleful aura and instantly injure them severely.

Everyone had unsightly expressions. Like Qiu Yi had said, Lone Wolf was significantly stronger than the previous night. Xiao Chen looked to the side and saw Zhong Li staring at the battle in front, appearing to be very focused.

While Zhong Li’s demeanor seemed normal, Xiao Chen’s sharp senses noticed that Zhong Li was not focused on Lone Wolf.

Instead, Zhong Li watched Qiu Yi and Zhuo Ping very closely, like he was analyzing their styles and Martial Techniques.

“Brother Xiao, it is time we made a move.”

Seeing Xiao Chen paying attention to him, Zhong Li withdrew his gaze and smiled faintly. Then, a thick saber appeared in his hand as he rushed at Lone Wolf.

Zhong Li launched a white, cold saber Qi from his saber. When he infused his saber intent into the state of ice, none of it leaked out.

In the night, the dense white saber Qi looked like a line falling from the sky between Qiu Yi and Zhuo Ping.

The saber Qi struck Lone Wolf accurately, and frost spread out. In an instant, Lone Wolf was covered entirely in ice.

When Xiao Chen saw this attack, a strange light flashed in his eyes. He exclaimed with some shock, “A perfect fifty-percent-comprehended saber intent!”

Qiu Yi was even more shocked. He had not expected this Zhong Li to be hiding his strength. However, this moment was critical; it was not the time to think about this.

The sword in Qiu Yi’s hand trembled, and a flame spread out. A Quintessence bird glowing with health and vigor flew out from the sword with a loud cry.

The giant bird gave off a bright golden glow. Even the bird’s feathers burned with intense flames. Its huge wings gave off heat waves, which surged through the air, eliminating the cold of the night.

As the bird flapped its wings, rings of flames spread out in ripples.

The energy in these ripples was very terrifying. As they moved, space fluctuated along with them.

Everyone’s expressions changed. They immediately understood what Qiu Yi intended. He wanted to take advantage of the moment Lone Wolf was sealed in ice to push back everyone else.

Then, Qiu Yi would finish off Lone Wolf on his own, obtaining the proof of completion.

While this was easy to deduce, not many people dared to clash head-on with the flame ripples. So they could only move back helplessly.

The pretty Zhuo Ping snorted coldly and thrust her slender sword forward. The tip of her sword gave off a dazzling light.

The ripples that surged towards her immediately split apart. The spot where her sword came in contact with the ripple gave off countless resplendent sparks.

Under the bright moonlight, the sparks looked as beautiful as stars.

Although Zhuo Ping had blocked the flame ripples, it had taken some time. So she could only watch as Qiu Yi rushed at Lone Wolf with the golden flame bird.

“Ka ca!”

Just at this moment, the smooth ice sculpture shattered into a multitude of shards as Lone Wolf regained his freedom.

Watching the golden bird fly over, Lone Wolf roared ferociously, and his right arm swelled up. His sleeve tore instantly, revealing the arm of a wolfman.

Lone Wolf gathered the Quintessence of Fiends in his transformed hand and punched.

“Bang! Bang!”

Two earth-shaking sounds rang out in the quiet night. The flame bird suddenly shattered, turning into a golden fireball, which then burst into myriad sparks that scattered everywhere.

After Qiu Yi’s move was forcefully broken, his complexion turned unsightly. He vomited a mouthful of blood and flew back by several hundred meters.

However, Lone Wolf was in an even sorrier state than Qiu Yi. The energy of the explosion from the flame blasted his transformed hand. His arm got torn up; even his bones could be seen. For now, his arm was crippled.

However, Lone Wolf took advantage of this opportunity to fly back a kilometer, quickly heading out of the city.

“Chase him! We can’t let him escape again,” Zhuo Ping shouted as she led the Thousand Mystery Sect in pursuit.
