When Tang Ming regrouped with the three won, Zhen Xiaosa, hiding in the shadows, saw that Xiaobai had left the group and realized it was a great opportunity to steal the Xue Ling and flee a thousand miles. He imdiately took advantage of the cover provided by the vegetation to quietly approach the Mysterious Snow Spirit.
As Xiaobai squatted less than thirty ters away to clean his fur, Zhen Xiaosa moved closer, his heart throbbing with excitent. As long as he could capture the Xue Ling and then make a quick getaway, he could deliver it to the Mo Family. After completing this deal, he would leave Songlan imdiately. Even if Tang Ming wanted revenge, he would not be able to find him.
"Damn Tang Ming, if you dare to co to Wanjing City looking for trouble, I’ll make sure it’s a one-way trip for you. But first, I just need to get back the Xue Ling, and my task will be complete... Huh?"
Zhen Xiaosa was muttering to himself when he suddenly felt a tightness around his foot, followed by a rustling noise.
"What’s this?"
Looking down, he found his foot caught by a grass ring, and at the sa ti, a log on the ground in front of him swiftly swept towards his legs.
"Damn it, there’s actually a trap."
Zhen Xiaosa’s face turned pale as he leaped up, trying to dodge the log sweeping at him. However, his left foot was caught by the grass ring, and he couldn’t jump out of the way.
"Bang!"
With a muffled sound, the log smacked solidly against his left leg, breaking the wood completely.
"Ouch."
Zhen Xiaosa let out a scream like a pig being slaughtered. Even though he was a martial master with an extraordinary physical body, he was not a Cross Training Martial Master, and such an attack on his thigh caused him unbearable pain, nearly knocking him unconscious.
With his left leg severely injured, Zhen Xiaosa lost his balance. Moreover, since he was in a jumping stance, his body fell toward the ground.
The first thing Zhen Xiaosa did was to cover his face, fearing disfigurent, but as he was about to hit the ground, a stake suddenly sprung up from the ground at the exact spot where his chest was about to land.
"Son of a..."
Zhen Xiaosa’s face turned pale again, as falling like this could probably break a whole row of ribs.
In that critical mont, Zhen Xiaosa bit his lip and forcibly turned his body, landing on his back...
"Pfft."
After a heavy blow to his back, Zhen Xiaosa couldn’t help but spit out a mouthful of blood, and his consciousness began to blur. Even a martial master couldn’t withstand being played like this.
"What’s going on here?"
Li Xiaoli, who was talking, looked around with confusion, "Why is there another scream, could it be the sound effects from the Entertainnt City?"
"Of course, it’s the sound effects. If soone really encountered danger here, Entertainnt City wouldn’t be able to take the responsibility."
Tang Ming laughed and clapped his hands, calling out, "Xiaobai, co here, we’ve got more treasure to find."
"Okay then, the sound effects are too realistic, they even scared a bit."
Li Xiaoli shrank her neck and hurriedly grabbed the hands of Xia Wei’er and Liu ngting, following closely behind Xiaobai as they left the scene.
Tang Ming looked enigmatically at Zhen Xiaosa’s location. He knew that the man had fallen into the trap he had set up; if not dead, he’d be severely injured, and hopefully, the man would learn his lesson and back off.
Before, Tang Ming had spent years in the real primitive forests of North Africa, tumbling and rolling in their depths. He was most familiar with such dense forest environnts and knew best how to use them to set up traps and chanisms. Once, he had used his surroundings to eliminate a few hundred-man ard squad all by himself in the jungle. Now, setting up a few traps to teach Zhen Xiaosa a lesson was child’s play to him.
Not long after, Zhen Xiaosa suddenly turned around fiercely, scrambled up from the ground, spitting blood while frantically shaking his head to regain consciousness.
"Son of a bitch, it must be that bastard Tang Ming who set up these traps to screw over," he hissed.
Once Zhen Xiaosa ca to his senses, his eyes flickered with violence. After using his cultivation to stabilize his injuries, he imdiately pursued Tang Ming and his group with murderous intent. Now that his presence was discovered, there was no need to hide anymore.
Now that Tang Ming’s impressive bodyguard was waiting outside, there was no way Tang Ming and the three girls could handle him, a martial master on their own.
He had wanted to avoid trouble and the attention of the formidable bodyguard outside, sneaking around to get the Xue Ling and then make a long escape. But now that he had been found out, he was ready to go all out. He would directly face off against Tang Ming and his group to snatch the Xue Ling and then use his work uniform to cover his escape from Entertainnt City Castle. Even the bodyguard outside wouldn’t notice anything amiss.
By this ti, Tang Ming and his group had already left the Primitive Forest thed area and entered the dimly lit maze thed area.
Although the maze was winding and easy to lose one’s way in, they walked smoothly thanks to Xiaobai leading the way.
Zhen Xiaosa, using special ans, could sense Xiaobai’s location, and so was able to follow quickly.
The three girls were eagerly walking in front, following Xiaobai to search for treasure, with Tang Ming bringing up the rear.
It didn’t take long for Tang Ming to frown, sensing that Zhen Xiaosa was on their trail again, and this ti he was moving fast, not sneaking around anymore. It seed he was ready to resort to direct confrontation and robbery.
He needed to hide his strength, and the combat power of the three girls could be considered negligible. If he didn’t think of a way to handle the situation, he would have to expose his cultivation to deal with a martial master’s direct attack. He could call Xin Badao for reinforcents, but he feared there wouldn’t be enough ti.
Tang Ming frowned and looked around. As he looked up in observation, he suddenly smiled and said, "Ladies, how do you think this maze compares to the ones we’ve played in at amusent parks before?"
"This maze seems more complex than the amusent park’s, but with Xiaobai leading the way, it’s much smoother than last ti,"
Li Xiaoli replied without looking back.
"Yeah, we got lost in that simplistic maze last ti, and in the end, we had to rely on hints to be led out. Without Xiaobai this ti, we’d probably be lost again,"
Liu ngting felt this deeply as well.
"What happened last ti?"
Xia Wei’er, unfamiliar with the details, asked in confusion.
"Don’t remind , it was such an unlucky outing. But this ti is much better. There’s a big prize waiting for us inside."
Li Xiaoli shook her head and called out with excitent.
"I’ve finally found you."
At that mont, Zhen Xiaosa caught up, hearing Tang Ming and his group’s voices from behind a fork in the path.
Zhen Xiaosa threw his hat aside and ripped off the fake beard from his face, revealing his true appearance. With head held high and oozing murderous aura, he strode towards the direction where Tang Ming and his group were.
"Actually, even without Xiaobai, we don’t have to worry about safety, because from the mont we entered the maze, surveillance caras have been monitoring our every move,"
Tang Ming raised his voice and said loudly, "I guess the maze is quite challenging, and Entertainnt City must be worried about guests getting lost inside, so they’ve installed a surveillance system specially."
