"Hm?"
Wang Xiao’s brow furrowed slightly.
Just then, he felt a strange current of air stir behind him.
The current was incredibly faint. If not for his Cultivation of the Celestial Human Temple technique, which had allowed his Spiritual Domain to break through the First Layer, he might not have noticed it at all.
Without a mont’s hesitation, the True Qi in his body erupted, forming a golden Sword Shadow that slashed out behind him.
"Ah."
The next mont, a bloodcurdling scream ca from behind him.
A man dressed in black Ninja attire, split clean in two, tumbled out of the shadows.
’Island Country natives. Rebels!’
Wang Xiao’s eyes narrowed as he looked at the man.
Since the dawn of the Great Cosmic Era, humanity had undergone a great unification, forming the present-day Supre Federation.
However, national divisions and ethnic identities still persisted.
For example, Wang Xiao and his companions didn’t usually call themselves Federation citizens. They still referred to themselves by their pre-Great Cosmic Era nationalities, such as Chinese.
It was the sa for other countries.
Of course, a few nations had suffered catastrophic blows during the Great Cosmic Era.
The Island Country, for example. In the early days of the Great Cosmic Era, the expansion of the Earth’s Crust had hit them hard.
They were battered by a series of disasters: massive volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, and tsunamis.
Eventually, the entire nation fell apart.
The elite and the wealthy mostly emigrated to countries like the Free Country.
A smaller portion beca holess refugees.
So among them underwent genetic leaps and gained powerful abilities. But instead of joining any nation, they beca human rebels, constantly harassing and attacking various countries.
They even ford alliances with powerful Mutant Beasts, completely betraying humanity.
These human rebels mostly lived within the war zones.
Whenever war broke out between humans and Mutant Beasts, these rebels would sotis erge to attack humans and plunder resources.
Or they would kidnap hostages for ransom.
They were truly capable of any evil.
Yet their hiding places were extrely well-concealed.
Since the Great Cosmic Era began, the Supre Federation had launched several campaigns to wipe them out, but none had succeeded in eliminating them completely.
On the contrary, under the protection of the Mutant Beasts, they had only grown stronger.
Now, they had beco a persistent disease plaguing the Supre Federation.
Wang Xiao hadn’t expected to run into these rebels on his very first mission.
As these thoughts raced through his mind, Wang Xiao glanced around and realized he wasn’t the only one attacked by these Island Country Ninjas.
Qin ngyun and the others had all been ambushed at the exact sa mont.
These Ninjas’ stealth techniques were extrely profound.
The sudden backstabbing attack caught everyone completely off guard.
Aside from Wang Xiao, who had instantly counter-killed one of the Ninjas, the best of the rest, like Qin ngyun, had only managed to react in ti to dodge and barely protect themselves.
Several other teammates had been killed in a single blow and lay dead on the ground!
In a brief instant, four or five mbers of the twelve-person team were dead!
"Motherfuckers! A bunch of goddamn ghosts! To hell with you!"
Huang Mao was also badly injured. Caught off guard, one of his arms had been hacked off.
However, his counterattack was lightning-fast. He jerked up his remaining hand, and a blazing fireball shot out!
The Ninja who had ambushed him was seared by the fireball and retreated quickly with a scream.
"Dongdong, watch out!"
Just then, Qin ngyun’s anxious voice cried out from nearby.
Liu Dongdong had been slashed across the neck. The cut was so deep the bone was visible, and blood was gushing out.
If it had been anyone else, a severed artery like that would have ant they weren’t far from death.
However, Ice began to form around Liu Dongdong’s neck, quickly staunching the bleeding.
Yet, the ambushing Ninja had no intention of stopping there.
Taking advantage of her injury, his figure flickered as he lunged at Liu Dongdong again.
Liu Dongdong frowned, forming an Ice Armor around herself to barely fend off the Ninja’s attacks.
But soon, another Ninja joined in, also attacking Liu Dongdong.
It seed they wanted to finish her off as quickly as possible.
Suddenly finding herself fighting one against two, Liu Dongdong couldn’t hold on. Her Ice Armor was shattered.
She coughed up a mouthful of blood and collapsed to the ground.
"Dongdong!"
A fierce storm erupted around Qin ngyun. Her rampaging Inner Qi raged outwards, blasting the Ninja attacking her away.
Just as she was about to rush over to help, several other Ninjas surrounded her!
One of the Ninjas was about to bring his blade down and end Liu Dongdong’s life.
But his longsword froze in midair.
A golden Sword Shadow had pierced straight through his chest!
"Are you okay?"
Wang Xiao walked to Liu Dongdong’s side, extended a hand, and pulled her up.
"I’m fine. Thank you, Wang Xiao. I owe you my life!" Liu Dongdong dropped her usual flirtatious deanor and spoke with sincerity.
Wang Xiao’s expression was calm. "Let’s deal with these rebels first."
Without another word, his True Qi transford into a brilliant, golden Buddha Sword!
rcy and slaughter, coexisting!
To sever karma, not n; to kill in order to save.
SHIING!
Imnse Sword Qi raged out, instantly beheading several nearby Ninjas.
With his current strength, killing a Tier Three Life was as easy as slaughtering a chicken!
"Damn it! He’s a Tier Four Life! Retreat!"
Seeing this, the surrounding Ninjas imdiately scattered, lting into the darkness.
They vanished without a trace in an instant!
Liu Dongdong’s face tightened. "Be careful!" she said hurriedly. "These rebels cultivate the Dark Evolution Path. They excel at stealth and assassination. Since it’s night, this is completely their ho turf!"
A glint flashed in Wang Xiao’s eyes.
He knew that the Dark Evolution Path was ranked fifteenth among all evolutionary paths.
These Island Country rebels primarily cultivated either the Dark Evolution Path or the Path of Qi Evolution.
At this thought, his Forehead Mud Ball Palace trembled, and waves of Divine Thought swept outwards.
The next mont, the Ninjas hiding in the darkness had nowhere to hide from his Divine Thought.
He took a step, his figure moving as if by Instant Teleportation. Without any hesitation, his Sword Qi surged, and he swiftly reaped the lives of the Ninjas.
A good fifteen or sixteen Tier Three Life Ninjas were slaughtered by him in a matter of monts!
The others, not expecting Wang Xiao to be so ferocious, were all overjoyed.
They had thought they were facing a near-death situation today, but they never imagined these rebels would be dealt with so easily!
"Brother Wang is amazing! You’re truly worthy of being Qin ngyun’s master," said a man wearing a sports jersey.
His na was Colin. He had slightly dark skin and was of mixed race.
His group ID seed to be [Love , Don’t Elbow].
The guy didn’t care that he was a full twelve years older than Wang Xiao; he just went right ahead and called him "Brother."
"Holy crap, that was aweso! Boss, you must have reached the peak of Tier Four Life, right?" Huang Mao exclaid.
"It’s a good thing we have a boss like you here. Otherwise, I bet more than half of us would’ve died here today."
"Yeah, who would’ve thought? Brother Wang is such a beast! He kills Tier Threes like slaughtering dogs," a burly man said.
Hearing this, the faces of the others darkened.
’Damn, it feels like he’s lumping us in with the dogs.’
But Wang Xiao’s gaze shifted, looking ahead. "The trouble isn’t over yet."
The words had barely left his mouth.
BOOM!
A sound like muffled thunder rang out.
The next mont, a figure shot out from the depths of the settlent like a cannonball, slamming into the ground.
Everyone couldn’t help but turn to look.
When they got a clear look at the figure on the ground, their expressions all changed.
The figure on the ground was none other than Ying Xu.
However, a third of Ying Xu’s waist and abdon had been blown away, and his internal organs were almost visible.
Jagged shards of bone and shredded flesh were exposed. He was critically injured!
