Condemning the Heavens Chapter 483

Chapter 483: 483
The Monarch Piranha Flower was quite shrewd . It knew when to advance and when to retreat . It had clearly put the poison as a test to see whether or not Lan had any intention of saving Xue Wei .
If he had not saved him, then Xue Wei would have ended up being taken over by the flower, but because it was lodged inside the heart of Xue Wei, Lan was incapable of pulling it out .
Even Xue Wei could not live without having his heart inside his body .
Lan also looked at Xue Wei with mixed emotions, but he did not regret the decision to let Xue Wei face off against the flower .
It was true that his reason back then was amusement, but now he saw it as a way to temper the younger man .
Everything had been smooth sailing for him for a long time; he needed some sort of setback to finally break free and become stronger .
A setback would allow him to become an entity that was like Lan himself, someone who could leave this small world and head to the bigger stage .
However, everything came with a risk . Even with having Lan by his side, there was a chance that he would not be able to act fast enough to save Xue Wei . Ultimately, his survival depended on his own strength, both mentally and physically .
Xue Wei was also aware of this . He did not blame Lan for what he had done . Instead, he sighed and gazed into the distance . He narrowed his eyes and cocked his head, looking as if he was deep in thought .
Finally, he stood up, dusted the dirt off his robes, and smiled wryly .
Looking around, he saw that his friends were worried about him, and he could not help but feel warm in his heart . Even if he could not overcome the Monarch Piranha Flower's invasion in his heart, he was still satisfied with living his life like this .
Naturally, he was not going to die without putting up a fight, but he was aware that sometimes you had no other options . Even so, as long as there was a glimmer of hope, he would hold onto it with all his might and never let go .
"Let us move out," he said, and the others nodded their heads obediently . The rest were not harmed in the slightest, so continuing their journey was, without a doubt, the best idea . Staying too long in one place made them into an easy target .
The further they moved, the more they realized that something was wrong with the experts of the Xiyang Continent .
As soon as they encountered a group, they would quickly call for backup . Upon entering the continent, they would walk days on end without meeting anyone, but now they were encountering people everywhere they went .
It was as if they were sprouting from the ground, that was how numerous the enemies were .
"I guess we are nearing a military camp," Hei Gou finally said, and Xue Wei almost scolded himself for not realizing that the increase in people could only mean that they were nearing one .
Originally they had been close to a camp, but because of the Monarch Piranha Flower, the soldiers did not go towards the forest .
Now that they were going towards a military encampment, Xue Wei felt the same blood rush as before . Wouldn't it be fun to kill a whole camp on their own?
Well, it was not likely that they would be able to kill the entire army stationed there since there were likely to be a King or Emperor ranked experts, but everyone else could be killed .
"Give the King ranked expert a try," Lan said as he looked at Xue Wei with amusement in his eyes . "I will be there as a backup, in case you can't deal with him . "
Xue Wei pondered for a moment before nodding his head . It was quite good to try his hand against a King ranked expert, considering that he had not experienced much trouble against the other Saints he had been up against in the last many battles .
The others also broke into smiles, their smiles were full of innocence, but a strange murderous air brewed around them . All of them were eager to wash the ground with blood .
But no one knew that the most eager of them all was Lan . Lan somehow needed to connect the bridge between the Ghost Realm and the Real World, but he had no clue how to do so .
The best way of attempting it would be to kill, and keep on killing, when considering that the Ghost Realm only opened when a dead person went there .
The more souls that were ferried, the longer time the Ghost Realm would stay open, and the bigger the chance Lan and Xue Wei had of entering it .
"Well then, we cannot just enter the camp," Xue Wei said with a frown . "We need to somehow figure out a way to dwindle their numbers before we enter . "
"Well yes," Bai Tianyi looked around with narrowed eyes . "Should we perhaps ambush the people as they leave the area?"
Xue Wei contemplated as he looked around . "First, let us investigate what the camp looks like, and how many people are there . We can also try and capture a few soldiers and see if we can get anything out of them . "
"They won't tell us anything," Luoluo said with a pout, but Xue Wei just snickered . "With spiritual energy experts like you and Bai Tianyi, do you really fear that we can't get the truth out of them?"
Luoluo thought for a moment and broke into a brilliant smile . "Well then, let us go hunting!"
