Chapter 1202: Chapter 1202: Mutants
“I know Zheng Ji’s team’s route, it’s just ten kiloters from here, I’ll go notify him now.” Ye Shikai took out the Netherworld King’s Helt from the Storage Ring. With this invisibility ability, he could enter Zheng family’s team without being detected.
“Wait a mont,” Ji Qian suddenly called out to him.
“What is it?”
“If the opponent has planned well, then near Zheng family’s team, there should be no shortage of ambushers.”
“What do you an by that?” Ye Shikai retorted.
“Even if you fly over now, it might be too late.” Ji Qian continued, “Since there’s no signal, we’ll use the primitive thod. Who has a signal flare? As long as there’s a loud noise, Zheng Ji will definitely be alerted.”
“I have one.” A Hidden Guard took out a signal gun from his backpack. Ji Qian took it and aid at the sky.
Whoosh.
The signal flare made a piercing sound and then exploded in the air, echoing even more in the Outer Suburb Mountain.
At the sa ti, Zheng Ji also noticed the anomaly in the sky, not only him, everyone nearby was startled by this sound.
“Elder Mo, you lead the guards to be vigilant around, I’ll take people to investigate,” Zheng Ji imdiately said, waiting for this mont all morning.
“Yes, Eldest Young Master.”
Zheng Ji’s first thought was Ye Shikai; if soone were to sneak attack them, they definitely wouldn’t release a signal flare, this was an alarm that only Ye Shikai would do, Zheng Ji’s face was serious, it seems the Netherworld Palace and Moon God Temple are in trouble.
“Family Head, what exactly happened?” At this ti, Zheng Su and several Zheng family disciples ca to Zheng Li, curiously asking, but their faces couldn’t hide a trace of nervousness.
“Rest assured, it’s nothing, just so petty thieves.” Zheng Li said calmly, seeming to have anticipated these events long ago.
“Of course, the Zheng Family is the top family in East Sea, and today is the sacrificial ceremony, I reckon no one dares to cause trouble under Taishan’s nose.” Said one Zheng family disciple, who had just been reprimanded by Zheng Li, naturally saying flattering words.
“Indeed, and besides, with Ji and so many experts, who could be our opponents.”
“Absolutely right.”
Zheng Su saw the flattering faces of these Zheng family disciples, a trace of disdain flashed across his face; they had just spoken ill of Zheng Li and Zheng Ji and now were eager to please them, typical fence-sitters.
Whether it’s Zheng Li or Zheng Su, they’re both insightful; they know these Zheng family disciples are unreliable, can only use them, but can never rely on them.
“You all go back and wait for Ji’er’s news.”
“We’ll abide by the Family Head’s orders, we shall take our leave now.” At this point, Zheng Su could only rely on himself and left with them, but he didn’t return to the resting camp, instead headed to the nearby woods.

“Boss, they’re closing in.” Soul Destroyer pointed to the chasers behind them.
“So fast.” Ye Shikai looked at his watch, only ten minutes had passed, and they had to cross a large swamp.
“What now.” Demoness looked serious; the incoming were hostile, even without confrontation, just their posture carried a murderous aura, all wielding machetes and wearing uniform black clothes. What confused Ye Shikai most was why even their eyes and noses were covered, don’t they need sight?
“Since they’re here, let’s fight.” With the battle imminent, Ye Shikai never backs down. When the Netherworld King is angry, corpses float for miles, let them fight, hearing these words, the Hidden Guards drew their blades; they were finely honed killing machines, loyal to Ye Shikai’s command.
“Qian, we’re about to fight again, how are you doing?”
“Hmph, you better take care of yourself, once we start fighting, I won’t be able to help you.” Ji Qian retorted pridefully.
“Oh, you, underestimating .” Ye Shikai laughed, turned his head to the dozens of people ahead, a surge of killing intent released from his body, his eyes turned red, even the Hidden Guards next to him couldn’t help but shiver; this was Ye Shikai’s aura.
A king’s aura.
“Charge.”
Ye Shikai took out a tal sword and rushed forward first, others followed, both sides charged with all their might, the cries of killing were earth-shattering, in this desolate mountain, it’s clear so won’t make it out…
Ye Shikai’s speed was incredibly fast, the tal blade cut through iron like mud, though lacking You Xi’s Sword Power, Ye Shikai was most familiar with it, using it with great skill, utilizing all his Inner Strength to strike one down with a single sword swipe.
However, the scene before him stunned Ye Shikai.
“What, the blood is green.” Ye Shikai felt sothing was amiss, why did the sword seem to hit steel, looking up, the sword was stained with green liquid.
A chill flashed through his mind, he had a bad premonition.
Maybe the ones standing before them weren’t humans at all.
Ye Shikai looked at the corpse on the ground, though accustod to seeing dead bodies, this ti, he felt a chill within, putting the sword tip to the other’s mask, taking a deep breath, the sword gingerly lifted the mask.
Despite ntally prepared, Ye Shikai was still stunned, beneath the mask was a lizard face, or more accurately, a Lizardman’s face.
“Everyone, be careful, the opponents are Lizardn,” Ye Shikai shouted, recalling the experience of fighting Refining Mo in Hong Kong, those terrifying Lizardn, their limbs could regenerate, extrely resilient; even with half a body, they continued to fight. Back then, confronting just one transford Lizardman Refining Mo brought Ye Shikai much suffering, now there are so many.
According to De’s intelligence given to him and the National Security Bureau, Lizardn belong to the second generation of the HST project, and the first test subject was Refining Mo. Several months have passed, the HST potion has changed significantly, Ye Shikai regretted his carelessness.
Previous intelligence suspected Boss Xing had relocated the HST project’s research base to East Sea, so it appears true, and the test subjects of the HST potion have begun mass production.
But why would Boss Xing ambush them here? Could he aim to disrupt the Zheng family’s sacrificial event?
It’s not impossible.
Besides, if these seventy-odd are all Lizardn, then it’s simply a “mutant army”; though Hidden Guards are skilled in cultivation, they’re still re mortals. Even if they win, it’d be a bitter victory.
“Everyone, gather around .” Ye Shikai shouted loudly.
“Netherworld King Spell—Shadow Clone.”
