Chapter 382: 382
Looking back at Xue Wei's bloodthirsty grin, the other leader could not help but shiver slightly .
He knew that Xue Wei was a beast . Although he seemed human when he was in his human form, he couldn't hide the ruthlessness that was inherited through his genes, his entire body was screaming for a massacre .
He felt fortunate that he was allied with such a cold and callous person, he feared that if they were enemies, he would have died a horrible death .
"Let's go, we have caused a ruckus here, so there will be beasts and humans coming soon . We should hurry and leave right away . " The leader might not be the best at spotting enemies around, but he was a brilliant actor .
No one could see that he had already known that a group of experts targeted them .
Xue Wei smiled wryly, but he nodded his head . "It was a pleasure working with you; these Qilin Horns will be a great benefit to us . Be careful in the rest of the time that this Ascended Realm is open . "
The leader waved his hand and began leaving . Xue Wei paused for a bit and felt that the people who were observing them had also gotten ready to go .
"Well then guys, on to find new treasures somewhere else," Xue Wei grinned as he gestured for them all to follow him .
The Vermilion Bird Clan members were all having mixed emotions . Although they did not like Xue Wei, he had gotten them some fantastic benefits, so even if they disliked him, they shamelessly continued to follow him .
They took a detour . It looked as if they were heading in the opposite direction of the other group, but upon entering the thicket of the forest, they made a large curve in their path, heading in the same direction as the other group had left .
"When we've cleared these trashes, we will pause for a bit . It is safest to consume the Qilin Horn before we leave the Ascended's Realm," Xue Wei muttered to himself . "I need not only the Qilin Horn but also to raise the purity of my flame, the level of my elemental affinity domain .
Xue Wei knew that focusing on Qi cultivation would be hard . Although he had to advance to a Saint again, he was not in a rush . He understood that the most important was actually his flames and elemental affinities .
The sooner one comprehended an elemental affinity, the bigger the chance it had to grow in the future, and one's level of the elemental affinity would also be likely to rise higher .
Because of this, he felt that it was a good idea to spend some time after this to focus on his cultivation base and elemental affinities .
As for his team, they had already reaped countless benefits since they came to the Ascended's Realm . It was clear that while they could get more items, it was no longer necessary . The most important thing now was actually to keep onto the treasures they had found and not be robbed in the final time the place was open .
Best would be to find somewhere secluded and use the many resources they had gathered . This way they would be able to increase their strength and reduce the chance of losing their items later on .
While Xue Wei was busy thinking, they were advancing on the other group who were fighting the ones who had been like the mantis stalking the cicada unaware of the oriole from behind .
"Hand over all your items!" someone was saying with a loud voice . "If you give us all your treasures, then we will let you leave with your lives intact!"
"Why should we do that? Let me gift you those words back at you . Give us your items, and we will let you go alive . "
The one who spoke now was the leader of the group, his voice was calm and carefree, he had full faith in Xue Wei would appear on time, and just as he had expected, Xue Wei's voice suddenly sounded .
"My dear friend, don't make promises like that," his voice was jovial, even his face held an amiable smile .
"Who are we to decide their lives? They decided to move on us; it is only natural for us to return the favor . They can hand over their lives alongside their treasures!"
The words were harsh and gruesome, but they perfectly showed Xue Wei's personality .
He was not a good guy . These people had intended to rob and cause problems for others throughout the time that was left in the Ascended Realm .
But if they really were able to leave alive today, they would tell everyone about the Qilin Horns .
If news got out about them, they would never have a peaceful day . Letting the enemy leave was simply the same as wounding yourself!
The leader shrugged his shoulders as he looked at the team, which was now in the midst of a pincher attack .
"Well, you heard him . Let down your lives alongside your treasures!"
As soon as the words left his mouth, the leader waved his hand, and Xue Wei did the same . Everyone began fighting with their lives on the line .
Since Xue Wei had said that no one was allowed to escape, he threw out a few space inscriptions which locked down the area they were in .
Usually, he would not use such expensive inscriptions, but this was a critical situation . He could really not afford to let anyone leave alive, it was akin to inviting trouble .
