Chapter 179: One Against Six (I)
The entire place fell silent.
The sound of Wang Shelong fighting against the willow forest alone echoed in everyone’s ears.
However, the rumbling sound that started when Wang Shelong fell to the ground lasted only for less than a few seconds before it was replaced by the sound of someone being strangled.
Everyone knew that Wang Shelong, who was caught by countless willow branches, would not be able to last long before he was strangled to death.
Sure enough, a little more than 10 seconds later, the sound of metal breaking suddenly rang out, followed by a scream.
After that, most of the willow trees in the valley returned to normal, and only a sucking sound could be heard.
The willow branches had turned into needles for drawing blood, and Wang Shelong’s body was sucked dry in the blink of an eye, turning into fertilizer for the willow tree forest.
The remaining three commanders from the Thunder God Mercenary Group stared at the masked man with burning eyes. Everyone else also focused their gazes on the masked man.
Wang Shelong was the strongest person in the Thunder God Mercenary Group. Among the big shots who were participating in the fight in the valley, his strength was only slightly below average.
However, it would not be an exaggeration to say that the masked man who could destroy Wang Helong’s Thunder God Armor with one strike was at the top of the hierarchy.
“Who exactly are you? Our Thunder God Mercenary Group has no grudge with you, but you targeted Wang Shelong and caused him to die on the spot.
If there’s no explanation, don’t blame us for dealing with you together,” the remaining three members of the Thunder God Mercenary Group said in a low voice.
Their words subconsciously isolated the masked man from all the other factions. At the same time, they wanted to use this opportunity to suppress the other party. As long as no one stood out to expose him, it was equivalent to the masked man standing against the other 10-over factions alone.
Chen Yiming couldn’t be bothered with the Thunder God Mercenary Group, who didn’t have the right to comment on the distribution of the resources in the valley. He stood quietly and waited for Zhou Xuesheng, the leader of the distribution plan, to speak.
The court heads of the Jiyang Sect and the Myriad Phenomena Sect, including Zhou Xuesheng, knew the background of the masked man, and immediately cursed the Thunder God Mercenary Group in their hearts. If they had a death wish, they didn’t need to drag other innocent people down with them.
The tragic deaths of the four court heads of the Kunshan Sect were still fresh in their minds. On the surface, the court heads stayed silent, but in reality, they had already made the decision to escape. They were just waiting for some faction to make a rash move.
…
As for the other factions who did not know the truth, their first reaction was that although the masked man was strong, he was working alone. If all of them worked together and attacked him, they could crush the masked man in the blink of an eye.
With this thought in mind, many people were not in a hurry to make a move. They were just waiting to see how this masked man, who did not follow the rules and wanted to forcefully participate in the distribution, would end up.
After a while, just as the remaining three members of the Thunder God Mercenary Group started to panic, the three humanoid mutant beasts from the Beast Sect stood up and negotiated with the Thunder God Mercenary Group. “Give us the blood essence from three mutant beasts at the second stage of the warrior realm, and we will work with you. The six of us can attack together.”
The Beast Sect was established by three bloodline warriors. Yu Changliang, Zhang Dingkai, and Xu Changxiong received the titles of Wild Lion, Raging Bear, and Demonic Elephant based on their bloodline abilities.
All three of them had extraordinary figures, and none of them were shorter than three meters. Under normal circumstances, the two people with the titles of Raging Bear and Demonic Elephant were already about 3.5 meters tall. Coupled with their broad shoulders, just by standing there, they blocked the line of sight within a three meters radius, giving off the feeling that one was facing a real dire beast from the otherworld.
Once they used their bloodline abilities, they could directly transform into dire beasts from the otherworld. A large truck weighing about 10 tons, a speeding train, and a ship carrying about 100 people were not much different from toys in their hands.
“Let’s attack together and avenge Wang Shelong.”
The remaining three members of the Thunder God Mercenary Group gritted their teeth as their hearts bled.
The Thunder God Mercenary Group had obtained the blood essence of mutant beasts at the same level as them through their hard work and risking their lives, just like what they were doing on Mist Island. Asking for three portions of blood essence at once was simply asking for too much.
However, the three of them had no choice but to agree. Otherwise, the mercenary group would lose all face.
“There are still people who aren’t afraid of death?”
Chen Yiming’s eyes lit up. This was the first time he had encountered a bloodline warrior of the same level.
The glint in his eyes did not go unnoticed by anyone present. Most of them did not care and were just waiting to watch a good show. On the other hand, the court heads of the Jiyang Sect and the Myriad Phenomena Sect felt their hearts skip a beat and they almost turned to escape.
There were also many people who hoped that the masked man would kill off those from the Thunder God Mercenary Group and the Beast Sect. This way, the rest of them would be able to get a larger share of the resources.
“Boom, boom, boom…”
In front of everyone, the remaining three commanders from the Thunder God Mercenary Group and the three mutant beasts from the Beast Sect walked side by side towards the masked man.
Each of their weights were not the same as that of ordinary humans. If not for the fact that the entire Mist Island was reinforced by the huge roots of the mutant plants, large pits would have been formed with each step they took.
Most of the factions present could not help but communicate in secret.
“Do you think the masked man will turn around and run?”
“Haha, it’s not a possibility, but a certainty.”
“Indeed, it’s one against six. Unless he’s at the third stage of the warrior realm, I can’t think of any way for the masked man to deal with them.”
“That’s right. If one side gets wiped out, we’ll get a small profit. If both sides are defeated, we gain a huge profit. In any case, we’ll be the ones at an advantage in the end.”
No one was optimistic about the masked man fighting against six people at the same level.
Under normal circumstances, no matter how strong the masked man was, he would at most be 1.5 to 2 times as strong as Wang Shelong. On the other side, there were six opponents. Even if they did not work together, if the six of them took turns fighting, they could still exhaust the masked man and bring him to his death.
The Jiyang Sect and the Myriad Phenomena Sect’s Sect
court heads looked at each other and communicated in secret.
“Aren’t you guys going to take the opportunity to leave? Aren’t you afraid that he’ll start a massacre later?”
“Hehe, why don’t you guys take the lead?”
“How about we leave at the same time after those six fools make their move?”
“Sure.”
“Then it’s settled. There’s no need to play tricks on each other at this time. Our survival is the most important.”
Very few factions present knew that the masked man’s true combat strength had already crossed the threshold of the third stage of the warrior realm. The moment the masked man appeared, only one person had the right to speak in the valley.
As for immediately contacting the sect master in the center of the Island, no one dared to do so in front of him. With the example of the Blue Cloud Sword Sect’s Li Daoyi being able to defeat but not kill him, the court heads did not have much confidence in their sect master’s ability to finish him off.
This way, if they rashly made a move that would upset the masked man, he might kill them in the blink of an eye.
“You are indeed powerful. We have some respect for you. Why don’t you apologize to the Thunder God Mercenary Group and talk things out with them?” Wild Lion Yu Changliang suddenly tried to persuade the masked man.
As long as the matter could be resolved, the Beast Sect would not be afraid of the Thunder God Mercenary Group which was missing one commander going back on their promise to hand over the blood essence when their level was in the middle tier of the factions present.
This was their plan to kill two birds with one stone. If the masked man was willing to pay the price and reconcile with the Thunder God Mercenary Group, the Beast Sect would not only avoid casualties, but also obtain the benefits they had agreed upon beforehand.
“I want to see how strong a bloodline warrior is,” Chen Yiming glanced at him and said calmly.
The expressions of the three humanoid mutant beasts from the Beast Sect turned ugly. The other party seemed to want to do things the hard way.
The three commanders of the Thunder God Mercenary Group were even more furious. Wild Lion Yu Changliang was not only demanding an exorbitant price, but also wanted to continue to bleed the mercenary group dry.
“Cut the crap. Let’s kill him together,” Zheng Chenghai from the Thunder God Mercenary Group urged.
“Since you are so confident, don’t blame us for bullying you with our numbers.”
Wild Lion Yu Changliang’s expression darkened, and his eyes flickered with a fierce glint.
In everyone’s eyes, the masked man’s words were no longer just a provocation. He was looking down on the six of them who had joined forces.
