Chapter 28

nThe crowd exchanged glances with one another. No one knew what was happening in the forest.

nLi Rongcheng stepped out at this moment and said to Zhou Baiyun, “I will go and take a look.”

n

n

n“Alright! Be careful,” Zhou Baiyun nodded and replied.

nLi Rongcheng smiled. He ran into the forest in front and disappeared into the darkness.

n“Li Rongcheng is an advanced stage martial disciple, right? In a situation like this, only people who practiced martial arts are useful,” a rich second generation said in envy.

nWang Teng looked at the pitch-black night sky. He hesitated for a moment before saying to Xu Jie and his friends, “Wait here. Don’t run around. I will go and take a look.”

n

n

n“Brother Wang Teng, be careful,” Bai Wei said worriedly.

nWang Teng nodded.

nHe stepped on the ground, and his body shot up abruptly. Tapping his toes on the branches lightly, Wang Teng flew onto the crown of a massive tree like a bird.

nEveryone exclaimed in surprise. They didn’t expect the ordinary-looking Wang Teng to be a martial disciple too. Also, looking at his ability, he wasn’t weaker than Li Rongcheng.

n

n

nIndeed, he was an advanced stage martial disciple!

nFurthermore, judging from his skill, he was more powerful than Li Rongcheng.

nA glimpse flashed past Zhou Baiyun’s eyes as she stared at the figure standing on the crown of the huge tree.

nWang Teng gazed into the distance and identified the direction. He then exerted force on his legs and unleashed his monstrous strength within a split second.

nBoom!

nWhen he tapped his toes on the crown, the entire thing exploded, and wood splinters and leaves scattered down from the sky.

n

n

nWang Teng’s figure had already shot out like an arrow released from the bow. He slashed through the night sky and used the numerous trees to move quickly through the forest in mid-air.

nThe bunch of rich second generations and children of officials were dazzled by Wang Teng. Was this the true ability of an advanced stage martial disciple?

nIf Li Rongcheng saw this scene, he would denounce Wang Teng for acting in public again.

nTo hell with advanced stage martial disciples!

nThis wasn’t martial arts!

nWhich advanced stage martial disciple had his kind of ability? If all the advanced stage martial disciples were as powerful as him, the city would be filled with martial disciples jumping on roofs and climbing up walls.

nNot long after Wang Teng left, Li Rongcheng came back.

n“Did you discover anything?” Zhou Baiyun walked forward and asked.

n

n

nLi Rongcheng shook his head. “The sound came from somewhere extremely far away. I’ve checked all the areas in the vicinity. I didn’t notice anything unusual.”

n“Bang!”

nThe moment he finished speaking, another loud explosion shook the eardrums of the crowd.

nThe atmosphere turned awkward for a second.

nLi Rongcheng felt embarrassed.

nXu Jie and his friends snorted without any qualms. They didn’t show any intention of hiding their peals of laughter. It made Li Rongcheng even more furious.

n“What are you laughing at! Hey, where is Wang Teng?” He suddenly noticed that Wang Teng had disappeared.

n“After you left, Wang Teng went to take a look,” Zhou Baiyun said.

nLi Rongcheng’s expression turned uglier.

nWhat the f**k!

nWhy is this fellow interfering with everything!

n“Let’s wait for a while longer. Maybe Wang Teng will bring some information back,” one of the rich second generations suggested.

n“Alright, let’s wait for a while.” Zhou Baiyun nodded.

n

n

n…

nWang Teng flew through the forest. He would tap his feet on the crowns of the trees every time before leaping forward.

nHonestly, ordinary advanced stage martial disciples weren’t as powerful as him.

nThe crown of a tree was delicate. If you exerted too much force, you would fall. Conversely, if your strength wasn’t enough, you wouldn’t be able to gain the momentum to leap forward.

nNormal advanced stage martial disciples didn’t have his strength nor his outstanding body control. Hence, they couldn’t astonish the crowd with a dazzling performance like Wang Teng.

nAfter some time, Wang Teng stopped. He jumped down from the tree and landed on the ground lightly.

n“It should be around here.”

nWang Teng scanned the darkness around him. He had noticed something amiss.

n“There was a fight here a moment ago. The explosion was so loud. Could it be martial warriors?”

nWang Teng had a sudden thought, scaring himself.

n“If it was really martial warriors, it’s better for me to stay here.”

nJust as Wang Teng wisely decided to retreat, he hesitated in his tracks.

n“But, martial warriors will drop attribute bubbles when they fight, right? What if there’s something I need?”

nHe froze on the spot. In his mind, the voice on the right was warning him that curiosity killed the cat. But, the voice on the left was enticing him—great success came with great risk!

n“Why don’t I take a look first? If the situation isn’t right, I will run away immediately.”

nIn the end, Wang Teng convinced himself and carefully explored the forest. He was unusually nervous.

nHe walked forward for another ten meters. Fallen trees could be seen all around him. The tree branches were shattered with burnt marks on them.

nThere were also a few holes on the ground.

nHalf of the deep holes’ edges were burnt, while the other half was covered with ice shards.

n“This…” Wang Teng opened his mouth. He was astounded. Was this the power of a martial warrior?

nHe took a few steps forward, and his gaze froze.

nHuh?

nThere was a figure lying on the ground. It seemed to be dead.

nA few attribute bubbles were floating beside the figure.

nWang Teng went wild with joy. However, just as the feeling appeared in his heart, he felt a sense of fear surging throughout his body. It completely drowned his happiness.

nIn an instant, Wang Teng’s head turned numb, and goosebumps started appearing on his body.

nHe felt a sharp pain somewhere on his back. Without thinking, Wang Teng executed his mastery stage footwork to its maximum speed.

nHe didn’t have the time to dodge to the side, so he could only tilt his body slightly…

nSlash!

nThe glint from a sword cut through the air beside Wang Teng’s body. His clothes were cut open, and his skin got pierced.

nA dash of fresh blood splattered everywhere.

nFortunately, it was only an external injury. However, Wang Teng didn’t dare to relax at all. The danger was still lingering closely around him.

nAlmost at the same time when he evaded the attack, he shook his hand, and a small-sized rune gun appeared in his hand. He fired multiple shots in the direction where the glint of the sword came from.

nBang, bang, bang, bang, bang!

nWang Teng only stopped shooting after he emptied the gun.

nHe then dashed behind a tree and used it as cover. Wang Teng was panting as his heart threatened to jump out of his chest. He could feel death caressing his back just now.

nWho is it?

nWho on earth is it?

nWhy does he want to kill me?

nThe forest was eerily quiet. Besides the leaves rustling in the wind, no other sounds could be heard.

nWang Teng waited for a few minutes before he stuck his head out slightly and looked in the direction where the sword had come from.

nA black figure was leaning against a tree without moving. There were a few bubbles floating beside this figure.

nThe faint glow from the bubbles allowed Wang Teng to barely make out the figure. He seemed to be dead!

nDid I kill him?

nCould it be that he isn’t a martial warrior?

nWang Teng was filled with curiosity. In the end, he couldn’t hold it in and walked over. However, he still had basic vigilance. Wang Teng shifted his energy to his fists and got prepared to fight at any moment.

nHowever, when he neared the figure, he discovered that the person was really dead.

nThere was one headshot and a few more shots at his organs. If this person wasn’t dead, he wasn’t human.

nPhew!

nWang Teng instantly heaved a sigh of relief.

nHe touched his waist before looking at his hand. It was covered with blood. I’m so lucky! I almost died!

nIs the martial warrior world really so dangerous? Do they kill people whenever they want?

nWang Teng was puzzled as he studied the corpse’s face. This person didn’t die in peace. There were still remnants of disbelief and the fear of imminent death on his face.

nMaybe he didn’t expect to die in my hands!

nWang Teng’s gaze landed on the bubbles dropped beside this person.

nHe picked them up!
