Three quarters of an hour later, the sky slowly darkened. The lanterns on the treetops on both sides of the streets of South Tong City were lit up, filling the dark streets with light. Most of the farmers and commoners were resting in bed.

Outside of South Tong City, there was a small forest. Outside of the forest, there was a river. The river was crystal clear, and the sound of flowing water could be heard.

However, the weather had yet to turn warm, and the night was even colder. Therefore, once night fell, the small forest would be deserted, with not a single stream of people in sight. Only the occasional bird cry and flapping wings could be heard flying through the forest.

And today, in the small forest at this hour, there were two uninvited guests — both were grown men that were over seven feet tall.

One of them had a strong build, a sturdy build, and was covered in muscles. He walked like a tiger with a strong wind. The other was relatively smaller, but his eyes were long and narrow.

The two of them arrived at a place that was relatively denser than the forest and stopped. The skinny man spoke in a gloomy and cold voice.

"Speak, run camp. What exactly do you want me to do? Cut the crap!"

The camp didn't care much about the newcomers because it was their nature to be cold-blooded and ruthless just like the snakes. However, this way, they would have a higher chance of killing their prey.

"Haha, Brother Hua Ning, you're still as quick as ever. This time, I've entrusted you with the task of killing a person."

"What cultivation level?"

"Peak of the Second Stage of the Common Birth Stage."

"Tch, running camp, you can't be joking with me, right? I told you, a peak Second Stage Mortal Core warrior like me killing a peak Second Stage Mortal Core warrior, the reward for asking me to kill you is not low, are you sure?" Hua Longning frowned and said coldly.

"Brother Long Ning, listen to me, this peak of the Second Stage Mortal Core warrior is no ordinary warrior. His combat power far surpasses those of the same level, and he even defeated eighty-eight warriors from our Crimson Nimbus Guild's Thousand Military Array, as well as an early Fourth Stage Mortal Stage warrior. Tell me, is he worth it for you to take action?"

"Oh?" Hua Longning's interest was piqued, and a hint of a cold smile appeared on his face. He loved to kill geniuses, "Information!"

"Ling Yan, almost 16 years old, new body, peak second level of the Mortal Core realm, comprehended fist light, his body strength is formidable, his defense is formidable, he's comparable to a medium-grade human-step treasure …" He then told him everything he had gathered.

When Hua Long Ning heard this, the corner of his mouth curled into a smile, and he said with a smile: "Running camp, this Ling Yan looks like a peerless genius. You are harming your junior brother, aren't you afraid of being caught by your master? You know, the punishment of the Crimson Nimbus Martial School is very severe, aren't you afraid of getting yourself involved?"

Hua Longning seemed to be very familiar with the rules of the Crimson Nimbus Martial School. His face was full of ridicule as he looked at the camp. At this point, he saw through the reason why the camp asked him to kill someone.

He fiercely said: "Old Man Rong just sent a sound transmission to us, saying that we will be out for a very long time, and now is the best time to make a move, to eliminate the possibility of Old Man Rong protecting Ling Yan. This brat doesn't put me in his eyes, when he grows up, wouldn't he kick me away?!"

In order to prevent any clues from being seen, I definitely can't do anything to Ling Yan. I thought of you, Brother Long Ning, after this is done, I will give you a high reward, but I hope that Brother Long Ning won't stay in South Stream City for the time being, just in case!
