Chapter 375: The Death of a Compatriot

“Damn it. What the hell is this?”

Xiao Bing darted away in fear. The fly seemed eager to suck his blood. Xiao Bing believed that one could be seriously injured, if they were bitten by this fly.

Bang! The fly hit Xiao Bing’s Gang spirit shield and fell to the ground. Not even an innate master could break through Xiao Bing’s Gang spirit.

Xiao Bing reached out for it, but it started expanding, and suddenly it exploded, scattering drops of blood everywhere.

Xiao Bing withdrew his hands, the delight plain in his eyes. It must be the God’s blood. It seemed that he was headed in the right direction. He wondered if that man was injured or not.

But soon Xiao Bing put this thought away. There was merely one drop of blood on the bush. If that man was truly wounded, there should have been more blood. Besides, Feng XIII spent a lot of effort to get that man, in order to realize his plans. He even betrayed his master and became the common enemy of his country. So he must be onto something earth-shaking, which meant he would not let the one with God’s blood get hurt.

Xiao Bing had been the leader of the Dragon Teeth, the strongest special force of Cathysian State, and the Dragon Gate, which was made up of the most wanted men around the world. He was not only physically powerful, but also very meticulous. He roughly figured out the whole situation, just by a mere drop of blood. He believed that the man hurt himself intentionally to leave his blood clue here, without Feng XIII’s knowledge.

Though the God’s blood seemed magical, according to the fly’s transformation, Feng XIII had reached the level of Void-breaking. Besides, his master was the most respected man in the country. He was slated to take his master’s place one day. Yet he betrayed his master for the God’s blood. Did he believe that the God’s blood could help him step into the middle stage of Void-breaking? But the cons seemed to outweigh the pros. Moreover, everyone, who used the God’s blood in history, had exploded. No doubt it was a gamble. Even if he succeeded, Xiao Bing believed Feng XIII would lose more than what he gained, considering how talented this man was.

Feng XIII must be truly mad if he chanced his future on it.

But there was another possibility: Mr. Buddha commanded him to take that man, since Feng XIII was one of the Buddhism group. He would never defy Mr. Buddha’s orders.

Xiao Bing would rather believe the second possibility. Was Mr. Buddha in this mountain?

Xiao Bing suddenly heard someone screeching as he moved forward. He followed the voice instantly, and then he saw a man being devoured by a chomper. Only his head could be seen.

Xiao Bing immediately cut the chomper down and yanked the man out.

This man looked to be over forty and seemed to be in a trance. He was covered with blood, not because of the chomper, but from the wounds on his body. Some of them had festered, and his scapula had obviously been penetrated by something.

He was so badly injured that even if he was in a hospital now, his chance of survival was small. His mind seemed to be in an even worse state than his body. His eyes were lackluster and full of blood streaks, his lips were cracked, his face was pale and he was breathing heavily.

Xiao Bing helped him lie down on the ground. He looked at this man and asked, “Where did you come from? Why are you here? How did you get so severely wounded?”

Lying on the ground, this man tried to open his mouth several times and managed to say a word- “devil”.

Xiao Bing questioned him in the language of R country, but this man answered in the language of Cathaysian State. Xiao Bing was taken aback for a moment, and then he felt the burning anger in his chest. This man was from Cathaysian State and he had been brutally treated here. One could tell from the wounds on his body, especially the bloody hole on his scapula.

But he did not get the answer he wanted. Xiao Bing asked again loudly, “I’m also from Cathaysian State. Tell me what happened to you? Who are you exactly?”

This man did not answer, and kept repeating the word: Devil! Fear could plainly be seen in his eyes. Xiao Bing felt that if he kept asking, he still would not get the answer, and this might lead to the man having a mental breakdown and go berserk.

Xiao Bing slumped to the ground and sighed, “What should I do now. I can’t save you in this forest. You have been so seriously wounded.”

Xiao Bing grasped the man’s arm and began feeling his pulse. Then he sighed. A second later, determination appeared in his eyes. He looked at this delirious man who might not have understood a single word he was about to say, “I’m sorry.”

Then Xiao Bing took out a pocket watch from his chest and swung it before this man. He snapped his fingers while saying, “You are tired now. You just want to rest. You’re about sleep. You are having a dream and it is a nightmare. Can you tell me what it is about?”

Xiao Bing’s skill of hypnotism was the best in the world, since he learned it from Han Huabin, a top master of this art. Xiao Bing had studied this man’s notes many times, yet he merely grasped the fundamental of it.

But this man’s mentality was weak now, which meant that if Xiao Bing managed to get all the answers, this man would probably die. It took a lot for Xiao Bing to make this decision. It was not because Xiao Bing was a cruel man. It was because this man would die soon after. If he could tell Xiao Bing something useful, his death would not be meaningless. Xiao Bing might even be able to avenge him.

“I… I…” The bewilderment was plain in his eyes.

“Tell me your name first.”

“Zhen Qiao. My name is Zhen Qiao…”

“Zhen Qiao?” Xiao Bing frowned. He found this name quite familiar. Then he suddenly realized something and said in surprise, “You are Zhen Qiao? The one in the special force? You are the second runner-up of the fighting competition of Cathysian State Commando Contest?”

Xiao Bing remembered this name. At that time, when Xiao Bing was still the captain at Dragon Teeth, there had been a competition held among the soldiers from the commando unit, which was quite an important event. A man name Zhen Qiao was the second runner-up of the competition. However, members of Dragon Teeth were not allowed to join, otherwise they would have won all the prizes. But this Zhen Qiao was doubtlessly skilled. After all, the soldiers of the special unit were all the elite of the elites. Xiao Bing surmised that this man must have reached the Transforming-strength stage, even if he was not in the innate realm.

He had never expected that a man with so many honors would end up like this, in this place.

“Yes… It was five years ago.”

Pride overcame fear when he spoke of this.

“Then why did you come to R Country? Why are you trapped here?”

“I…” Zhen Qiao searched for the answer in his memories. “My teammates and I were injured when we were carrying out a mission, and then a bunch of people from R country surrounded us. They took us to a ship. But we were not the only captives there. Most of them have reached the stage of Concealing-strength and Transforming-strength. Few of them were at Clear-strength stage. There were over 30 of us and everyone’s scapulas were penetrated, which made us unable to fight. The leader of these men was called Feng XIII and the second-in-command was Nakata Ichiro, who is extremely brutal. They had ten men at their disposal. They sailed the ship into the sea of R country and anchored at a desolate place. We tried to rebel, only to get hurt badly. We were all exiled on this land. Feng XIII left with two of his men. Nakata Ichiro forced us to enter this forest with the rest of them.”

Xiao Bing said in stunned disbelief, “They were bold enough to enter this forest? Do they and you all have the Gang-spirit to protect yourselves?”

Xiao Bing felt really bewildered.
