Chapter 1435 Scared out of Their Wits

“Dammit!”

Taoist Heavenlight was not angry that hundreds of his men had died. Instead, he was mad because Zhang Han and the others were provoking him.

“Listen up. Pass down the order. Inform everyone to gather their squads and form teams of a thousand people. Those fleeing ones must be found, and the rewards will be doubled!”

What Taoist Heavenlight said caused all of his subordinates to be intrigued. The last part of his words was echoing in their minds. “The rewards will be doubled.”

“Wow, not bad.”

Although they were intrigued, they still had to do what they were told.

After the order was given, the squads began to assemble.

There were more than three hundred thousand disciples from the Crimson Sunglow Sect with more than three hundred teams in total running amok in this place.

But after all, they had encountered a troublesome situation.

“Hahahaha!”

“Are you from the Crimson Sunglow Sect? Who are you looking for?”

“I’ve heard that a traitor has appeared amongst the disciples of the Crimson Sunglow Sect and that even the Third Elder has been sent flying. Amazing, this is the Crimson Sunglow Sect’s style alright.”

These were mockeries from the Authentic Martial Arts Sect.

In still some other places.

“Xuan Chen from the Crimson Sunglow Sect? Who do you think you are? Scram! This is the Ling Sea Sword Sect’s territory!”

When the Heavenly Evil Sect’s main force passed by, they asked, “Are you sure that you want us to take a detour?”

It seemed that a fight was about to break out at any moment.

When the Crimson Sunglow Sect’s teams thought of the fact that disciples of the Heavenly Evil Sect were cold-blooded and good at fighting, they compromised.

The search didn’t go well, but the situation was getting worse.

Mengmeng showed up and shouted, “I’m here. Come and catch me if you can!”

“Chase after him!”

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

The thousand-man squad quickly gave chase.

When Mengmeng ran to a mountain forest, her figure suddenly disappeared.

“A secret realm!”

“I’ve found a secret realm. Zhang Hanyang must have escaped to it.”

“Go in and catch him!”

“Would there be an ambush?”

“There are only three of them. How are they going to ambush us?”

“Let’s enter the secret realm!”

After the thousand-man team entered the secret realm, Zhang Han and the other two appeared at the entrance. He took out a black gem and performed a formation.

“Explode!”

The entrance was bombarded.

They continued forward. After they walked for more than ten miles-

“Explode!”

The exit was bombarded as well.

Without the entrance and exit, the secret realm would disappear from this world. The spiritual Qi there would gradually dry up, and once the resources were exhausted, it would become a Deadland. There would be nothing left but a few more skeletons.

Just like that, the three of them advanced in the direction of the Ling Sea Sword Sect while launching an ambush and killing enemies.

Mu Xue was completely stunned.

Her master hadn’t deployed the slightest bit of battle strength but had used all sorts of methods to destroy the Crimson Sunglow Sect in pursuit.

“He’s just too formidable.”

Gradually, the Heavenly Evil Sect, the Authentic Martial Arts Sect, and the Ling Sea Sword Sect all noticed that something was wrong.

“Who’s that person?”

“He’s Zhang Hanyang from the Crimson Sunglow Sect, also known as Yefeng. His companion is Mu Xue from the Heavenly Evil Sect. But the main attacker is Yefeng. He has hidden his strength very well and is very skilled.”

“The Crimson Sunglow Sect has been disgraced terribly here!”

Some people had been watching the fun.

As for Elder Heavenlight, he cared a lot about his prestige.

When he learned of the news one after another, he was completely stunned.

“Team 1 is out of contact.”

“Team 13 is out of contact.”

“Team 158 is out of contact.”

“Team 36 is out of contact.”

“Team…”

58 teams were out of contact in three days.

...

“Nearly sixty thousand people are out of reach. Did they just vanish into thin air?

“Oh, how is that possible? I don’t even need to think to know that these people are doomed!

“What should I do? Should I withdraw the troops?”

Elder Heavenlight was very conflicted. He still had a trace of hope that if he could find Zhang Han and the other two and kill them in front of the Four Great Sects, he would be able to regain some respect.

As such, he remained silent and did not give any further orders.

As a result, the hearts of the teams in the search sank.

Among Xuan Chen’s team-

“Senior Brother, 58 teams are now out of reach.”

“I, I know that.” Xuan Chen’s face was slightly pale, and he still had a lingering fear. He was scared.

“They’re simply too terrifying. Did I manage to dodge a bullet at that time?”

But he was also quite upset.

...

“Did they not kill me just because they look down on me?”

“Senior brother, I wonder which team will be out of touch right away.”

“He’s a devil. He’s just a devil. The thousand-man squads can’t catch him at all, and we might even get killed. If we keep searching him, we would be simply asking for him to kill us.”

“Brother Chen, I don’t know what the Elder is thinking, but he doesn’t care the slightest about our safety. I don’t want to continue searching. There’s no hope at all.”

“Senior Brother, let’s stop. What if we bump into them? You’ve offended them before.”

His core subordinates’ words caused Xuan Chen to feel a bit of embarrassment.

But his reputation obviously mattered to him more than his life.

“Get lost!

“All of you, get lost!

“What’s the use of saying that to me? Go talk to the Elder about it if you can!

“The search continues.”

Xuan Chen’s expression was cold.

However, it terrified many people, causing the team to fall silent while their minds simply reached a miserable state.

Some of them even started to be displeased with Xuan Chen because it was a matter of life and death for everyone.

However, things would always change.

Just as the team continued to advance, Xuan Chen gave another order.

“Where are you going? Go back and search! I suspect that they are behind us. Backtrack now.”

“What…?”

“Senior Brother, you’re awesome!”

The subordinates of Xuan Chen immediately laughed.

“Yeah. Let’s go back and search. It’s not against the rules to backtrack.”

The whole team was relaxed.

There were even some junior sisters who offered to play a tune.

Xuan Chen did not forget to woo Hua Churan and said with concern, “Junior Sister Hua, you will be safe with me. Don’t worry.”

However, in the melody-

“Where are you going?”

A faint voice resounded throughout the entire forest.

They looked up and saw three figures standing on an old tree in front of them.

“AH!”

Xuan Chen exclaimed with shock.

More than a thousand people’s hearts were beating fast in extreme fear.

“Run now!”

The team had long been scared out of their wits. They didn’t want to fight anymore. They wished they had eight legs to escape.

However, after they looked around, they found that other than this forest, the rest of the place was completely dark.

Clatter!

Xuan Chen’s heart seemed to skip a beat.

“Please spare me!”

Xuan Chen, who was normally very natural and unrestrained, was the first to beg for mercy.

Following that, the others began to beg one after another. There were even people who started to cry with snot and tears.

“If you want to live, you can.”

Zhang Han said indifferently, “I’ve kept the names of two of you in mind. Xuan Chen and Hua Churan. Xuan Chen has evil intentions and once asked Xu Hang to try to kill me and my daughter. Therefore, I’ll give your team a chance.”

“What chance would it be?” Xuan Chen was first filled with despair, then hope.

“First of all, if you kill Xuan Chen first, I’ll let you live,” Zhang Han said.

Swoosh!

The scene quieted down.

Xuan Chen was horrified. He flashed forward for dozens of meters, looking around vigilantly. He was so nervous that he was almost suffocated. The cold sweat on his forehead could not be stopped flowing.

“Senior Brother, be careful. Don’t fall into his trap.”

Several of his core subordinates hurried to protect him.

“Don’t come over!”

Xuan Chen almost shouted these words out, but he thought that he would surely be killed by Yefeng alone. With his several subordinates assisting him, he could resist the attack for a while. His strength was the highest among his team, so he might have a chance to survive. He just needed to prevent others from approaching.

“You only have ten seconds.”

Zhang Han began his countdown.

Xuan Chen’s subordinates looked at the crowd that was ready to move and shouted, “Don’t come any closer!”

Seeing how loyal they were, Xuan Chen relaxed slightly. He constantly thought about how to get a chance to survive.

However, in the next second, a voice sounded in his ear.

“Senior Brother, for the sake of everyone’s survival, you can just die in peace.”

Poof!

A long sword pierced through his chest.

Xuan Chen turned around and found that it was the one who was the best at assassination among his men.

“You!”

Xuan Chen’s eyes almost split apart from rage.

Poof!

It was another strike.

Another subordinate of his shouted, “Senior Brother. We want to live. This is one life for 999 lives. You should offer yourself up!”

Poof!

Poof!

The six men beside Xuan Chen all took action.

“He’s dead! He’s dead! You said you’d spare us.” Some seemed to have gone mad.

Under enormous pressure, they were about to go crazy.

“You still need to deal with Hua Churan.” Zhang Han turned to look at the girl.

When Hua Churan’s face turned pale, Mengmeng said in a low voice, “Daddy, for the sake of how hard she tried to pursue me, just spare her.”

“Okay.”

Zhang Han nodded and said, “I’ve said that I would give you a chance to live. Here it is.”

After that, the three of them turned around and left.

The scene was deathly silent. The crowd had just survived a disaster.

“Guys!

“All of you!

“You didn’t complete the mission.

“Only by killing Xuan Chen can we survive. The six of us have taken action. As for the others, each of you must give him a strike. Whoever doesn’t do it will die!”

Xuan Chen’s six subordinates were also afraid that they would be in a bad situation if the news got out after they left.

However, the rest of the crowd would associate with their evil deeds if everyone attacked Xuan Chen, they would get to prevent such a situation from occurring.

Apart from Xuan Chen, there were nine hundred and ninety-nine people left among the thousand.

It could be said that he had been cut into pieces.

However, after everyone gave him a strike, they suddenly discovered that it was still pitch-black around.

“AHHH! He lied to us!”

“He would not let us off.”

“Wait! He said he would give us a chance to live. Does he mean that we need to find it by ourselves?”

“There’s still a chance!”

It was indeed a chance to survive.

After Zhang Han cast the illusory formation, Xuan Chen and the others entered the secret realm directly.

Zhang Han had hidden the exit of this secret realm very well.

But he also told Hua Churan about it.

However, he also instructed her that only ten people could leave the secret realm.

After the ten people left, the energy of the formation would burst out and blow up everything.

However, Hua Churan remained silent in the crowd. She didn’t take the opportunity to leave alone until she assembled a squad to search for the exit.

“Everyone has their own selfish motives.

“There’s nothing wrong with what she chose to do.

“Let’s go.”

Then, Zhang Han took Mengmeng and Mu Xue out of the secret realm.

During this period, Mu Xue looked at Zhang Han with worship and admiration.

Her master was usually so easy-going, but now he was as sharp as a blade.

He didn’t usually act this way, but once he played tricks, the consequences were too terrifying.

They dealt with the Crimson Sunglow Sect’s teams as they advanced.

Until more than 80 teams were lost, Taoist Heavenlight’s heart was filled with terror.

“What sort of enemy is he?

“How did he do it?

“How could a human being be so powerful?”

On this day, Taoist Heavenlight was helpless.

In fact, many teams had already set foot on the return journey, and some of them were even standing still, extremely alert to their surroundings.

They were nearly taking the grass and woods around as their enemies. The sound of the wind scared the shit out of them.

But after all, some disciples, the ten people led by Hua Churan, were still alive and brought back the news.

“He’s a devil!

“He summoned an evil place. No one could get out of it. We found a slim chance of survival in the desperate situation.

“Only the ten of us made it alive.

“We can’t go after him. If we keep searching, everyone will die!”

Unknowingly, the name Yefeng had become a synonym for terror.
