The crowd exchanged glances with one another. No one knew what was happening in the forest.
Li Rongcheng stepped out at this moment and said to Zhou Baiyun, âI will go and take a look.â
âAlright! Be careful,â Zhou Baiyun nodded and replied.
Li Rongcheng smiled. He ran into the forest in front and disappeared into the darkness.
âLi Rongcheng is an advanced stage martial disciple, right? In a situation like this, only people who practiced martial arts are useful,â a rich second generation said in envy.
Wang Teng looked at the pitch-black night sky. He hesitated for a moment before saying to Xu Jie and his friends, âWait here. Donât run around. I will go and take a look.â
âBrother Wang Teng, be careful,â Bai Wei said worriedly.
Wang Teng nodded.
He 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.
Everyone exclaimed in surprise. They didnât expect the ordinary-looking Wang Teng to be a martial disciple too. Also, looking at his ability, he wasnât weaker than Li Rongcheng.
Indeed, he was an advanced stage martial disciple!
Furthermore, judging from his skill, he was more powerful than Li Rongcheng.
A glimpse flashed past Zhou Baiyunâs eyes as she stared at the figure standing on the crown of the huge tree.
Wang 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.
Boom!
When he tapped his toes on the crown, the entire thing exploded, and wood splinters and leaves scattered down from the sky.
Wang Tengâs 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.
The 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?
If Li Rongcheng saw this scene, he would denounce Wang Teng for acting in public again.
To hell with advanced stage martial disciples!
This wasnât martial arts!
Which 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.
Not long after Wang Teng left, Li Rongcheng came back.
âDid you discover anything?â Zhou Baiyun walked forward and asked.
Li Rongcheng shook his head. âThe sound came from somewhere extremely far away. Iâve checked all the areas in the vicinity. I didnât notice anything unusual.â
âBang!â
The moment he finished speaking, another loud explosion shook the eardrums of the crowd.
The atmosphere turned awkward for a second.
Li Rongcheng felt embarrassed.
Xu Jie and his friends snorted without any qualms. They didnât show any intention of hiding their peals of laughter. It made Li Rongcheng even more furious.
âWhat are you laughing at! Hey, where is Wang Teng?â He suddenly noticed that Wang Teng had disappeared.
âAfter you left, Wang Teng went to take a look,â Zhou Baiyun said.
Li Rongchengâs expression turned uglier.
What the f**k!
Why is this fellow interfering with everything!
âLetâs wait for a while longer. Maybe Wang Teng will bring some information back,â one of the rich second generations suggested.
âAlright, letâs wait for a while.â Zhou Baiyun nodded.
âŠ
Wang Teng flew through the forest. He would tap his feet on the crowns of the trees every time before leaping forward.
Honestly, ordinary advanced stage martial disciples werenât as powerful as him.
The crown of a tree was delicate. If you exerted too much force, you would fall. Conversely, if your strength wasnât enough, you wouldnât be able to gain the momentum to leap forward.
Normal advanced stage martial disciples didnât have his strength nor his outstanding body control. Hence, they couldnât astonish the crowd with a dazzling performance like Wang Teng.
After some time, Wang Teng stopped. He jumped down from the tree and landed on the ground lightly.
âIt should be around here.â
Wang Teng scanned the darkness around him. He had noticed something amiss.
âThere was a fight here a moment ago. The explosion was so loud. Could it be martial warriors?â
Wang Teng had a sudden thought, scaring himself.
âIf it was really martial warriors, itâs better for me to stay here.â
Just as Wang Teng wisely decided to retreat, he hesitated in his tracks.
âBut, martial warriors will drop attribute bubbles when they fight, right? What if thereâs something I need?â
He 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 himâgreat success came with great risk!
âWhy donât I take a look first? If the situation isnât right, I will run away immediately.â
In the end, Wang Teng convinced himself and carefully explored the forest. He was unusually nervous.
He walked forward for another ten meters. Fallen trees could be seen all around him. The tree branches were shattered with burnt marks on them.
There were also a few holes on the ground.
Half of the deep holesâ edges were burnt, while the other half was covered with ice shards.
âThisâŠâ Wang Teng opened his mouth. He was astounded. Was this the power of a martial warrior?
He took a few steps forward, and his gaze froze.
Huh?
There was a figure lying on the ground. It seemed to be dead.
A few attribute bubbles were floating beside the figure.
Wang 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.
In an instant, Wang Tengâs head turned numb, and goosebumps started appearing on his body.
He felt a sharp pain somewhere on his back. Without thinking, Wang Teng executed his mastery stage footwork to its maximum speed.
He didnât have the time to dodge to the side, so he could only tilt his body slightlyâŠ
Slash!
The glint from a sword cut through the air beside Wang Tengâs body. His clothes were cut open, and his skin got pierced.
A dash of fresh blood splattered everywhere.
Fortunately, it was only an external injury. However, Wang Teng didnât dare to relax at all. The danger was still lingering closely around him.
Almost 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.
Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!
Wang Teng only stopped shooting after he emptied the gun.
He 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.
Who is it?
Who on earth is it?
Why does he want to kill me?
The forest was eerily quiet. Besides the leaves rustling in the wind, no other sounds could be heard.
Wang Teng waited for a few minutes before he stuck his head out slightly and looked in the direction where the sword had come from.
A black figure was leaning against a tree without moving. There were a few bubbles floating beside this figure.
The faint glow from the bubbles allowed Wang Teng to barely make out the figure. He seemed to be dead!
Did I kill him?
Could it be that he isnât a martial warrior?
Wang Teng was filled with curiosity. In the end, he couldnât 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.
However, when he neared the figure, he discovered that the person was really dead.
There was one headshot and a few more shots at his organs. If this person wasnât dead, he wasnât human.
Phew!
Wang Teng instantly heaved a sigh of relief.
He touched his waist before looking at his hand. It was covered with blood.?
Iâm so lucky! I almost died!
Is the martial warrior world really so dangerous? Do they kill people whenever they want?
Wang Teng was puzzled as he studied the corpseâs face. This person didnât die in peace. There were still remnants of disbelief and the fear of imminent death on his face.
Maybe he didnât expect to die in my hands!
Wang Tengâs gaze landed on the bubbles dropped beside this person.
He picked them up!
