The Human Emperor

Ji Andu saw that he would no longer be able to keep probing Wang Chong’s strength and withdrew his fingers.

“Elder has misunderstood. Young Master Qingyang is a benefactor of our Righteous Alliance, and I only wanted to come and pay him a visit. Young Master, let us talk some more next time!”

After saying this, Ji Andu immediately turned around and made his way back up the mountain.

The Righteous Alliance elder walked over and worriedly asked, “Young Master Qingyang, are you okay?”

“Heh, I’m fine. Protector Ji seems to have some misunderstanding of me, but there’s no problem now,” Wang Chong indifferently said.

Nearby, Ji Andu, who had walked some fifty paces away, immediately twitched.

“Oh?”

The Righteous Alliance elder frowned, a confused look on his face.

But if Wang Chong wasn’t willing to elaborate, there was nothing he could do. After exchanging a few pleasantries, he turned around and resumed his patrols.

On the summit, Ji Andu stood in the darkness and shot a glare at Wang Chong.

Wang Chong was well aware that this matter was far from over. Since Ji Andu was willing to draw away Song Youran so that he could openly threaten him, he undoubtedly had some other tricks up his sleeve as well.

You’re seeking death!

As this thought flitted through Wang Chong’s mind, his eyes turned ice-cold.

Wang Chong quickly calmed back down and began to meditate. As time passed and Wang Chong was cleaning up his Stellar Energy, he felt a slight heat at his chest. At the same time, a faint green light began to shine through his clothes. Though it wasn’t particularly bright, it still stood out in the darkness.

“This is…”

Wang Chong thrust his hand into his bosom and took out an object. After glancing at it, he grimaced.

He raised his hand and scanned his surroundings. Nothing could be seen in the dark night, and there were only gusts of wind blowing overhead.

The situation was no different from what it had been a few moments before, but Wang Chong knew that something had already changed, that a hidden danger might attack at any time.

Swish!

Wang Chong swiftly stood up and made his way up the mountain, vanishing in the blink of an eye.

As Wang Chong was leaving, few people noticed that a figure dressed in black had appeared at a place not far from the foot of the mountain. He was hidden behind a thick tree branch so that only his eyes peeked out, which were sharply observing the mountain.

“It’s the third watch, the best time to strike. In a little while, we’ll strike at them so fiercely that they’ll be throwing aside their weapons in their desperation to escape, and blood will flow like rivers!”

The man in black gave a strange chuckle and quickly turned to another man behind him.

“Blood Eye, have you found the target?”

“Keke, relax. The target is still on the mountain. He won’t be able to escape.”

Blood Eye was squatting down, hidden in another tree, his aura seemingly fused with it. If one did not get up close with the intention of looking for someone, they would never be able to notice him.

“Ha! The time is upon us! We should move out!”

The two of them lunged forward with a ghostly silence, quickly making their way to the location where the three men in bamboo hats were.

Whoosh!

As the breeze blew, all things were concealed in the darkness, and all fell silent. Around five minutes later, another gust kicked up, sweeping in from the east and blowing toward the Righteous Alliance.

Such a thing was completely normal at night, and no one noticed that there was something abnormal in this wind.

On the eastern face of the Righteous Alliance’s temporary base, a Righteous Alliance disciple wearing the uniform of the alliance was seated cross-legged on the ground, his mind focused on cultivation.

The gust suddenly blew past, and the disciple’s nose flared. As he took in a few breaths, his eyes suddenly opened, revealing a hint of drowsiness.

But before he could even tell what was wrong, thump! His body went limp and he dropped to the ground.

One, two, three…

As the gust blew past, one Righteous Alliance disciple after another fell over like wooden pillars.

“Who is it?!”

A fierce bellow rang out through the night. The Righteous Alliance elder guarding the eastern base of the mountain stood up and stared, a wary look on his face.

This elder was far more sensitive to danger than the normal person, and just now, he had sensed an incredible danger.

“Hah!”
