Condemning the Heavens Chapter 484

Chapter 484: 484
Xue Wei could feel Luoluo's energy and excitement, and his lips curled into a smile . While he felt slightly exhausted after the battle with the Monarch Piranha Flower and later with the poison incident, he was not against pushing himself to his limits so that he could improve .
It was not only him who was exhausted; the Monarch Piranha Flower had clearly used up all its extra energy to launch those attacks . .
Xue Wei was aware that it would take some time for the flower to launch another attack, but he could never rest on his laurels, at any moment when he was pushed to the breaking point, the flower could initiate another attack, and cause him to suffer .
As such, he had to know what his limits were, and the only way to figure it out was by trying to push himself . This was a dance with death, as the slightest mistake could end up being his demise, and the Monarch Piranha Flower would take over his body .
But right now, they had to focus on the problem at hand . They wanted to deal with the army camp that was close to them, but to do so, they had to be smart about it .
They began scouting the area; it only took three days to reach the edge of the army . It was an old city that had been converted into a staging ground . The tall city wall was full of soldiers that were patrolling its premises . The gates were closed, and they only opened when the experts that arrived could prove their identity .
Xue Wei and his friends were all hiding at the edge of a forest that was located right next to the city . Although they were close, they had to keep moving, as patrols were sent out from the city at regular times .
These patrols were scouting the surrounding area, always on high alert, but they were never able to find Xue Wei and his friends .
After moving for some time, they soon found the pattern in which these patrols were moving, and they easily avoided them afterward .
"Why are we not killing the patrols already?" Luoluo was getting impatient as she watched another patrol pass by them . They had been hiding in the forest for a week to gather information, but they had still not made even the slightest move against the soldiers stationed at the camp .
"When we move, we will show them that we are here," Xue Wei patiently explained . "Our aim is to kill as many as possible when we finally make our move, and force the others to come out to catch us, which will result in us hunting down even more experts from the Xiyang Continent . "
Luoluo listened to Xue Wei and obediently nodded her head, but her eyes, which seemed pure and innocent, were a sharp contrast to the words that sprouted from her mouth, "When do we start killing then? We have wasted a whole week, and I cannot wait for the bloodbath to begin . It is exciting to try our hand against a whole army camp . "
Seeing the madness displayed on Luoluo's expression, Xue Wei smiled wryly . She was once an adorable little girl, had he indeed failed in raising her properly, to see her so obsessed with killing now?
He then thought back to his own behavior and his own ability to suddenly become lost in the blood rush, and he knew that it was likely his fault that the adorable little girl had turned out the way she was now .
However, he felt no guilt when thinking about this . She might have lost some of her innocence, but instead, she had gained the strength to survive and to protect herself .
Xue Wei took a moment to look at his different friends . All of them had changed throughout the years . He remembered when he met Hei Gou the first time, how he had been a very ordinary Celestial Dog, without the ability to protect himself, but now, after a few mutations, he was a talented genius .
He then looked at Lin Xiao . He remembered how he used to refuse killing people, and only made a move when someone truly deserved it, but now, he was a lot more relaxed, and his morals had changed . He had understood that there was no good and evil in the world, only one's own viewpoints .
The one who had changed the least was Bai Tianyi . He had already given up his humanity to become immortal, to become a spirit, and thus he was much like he had always been .
But no matter how much they changed, the group of friends would never turn their backs at one another, and they were eager to protect each other from dangers .
Even the emotionless Bai Tianyi felt loyalty towards his friends . While he had lost his humanity, he had not given up on his morals .
It was also because of the loyalty and the connection there was between them that Xue Wei dared to attack a whole army that consisted of thousands of soldiers .
With his friends by his side, he felt invincible, and he truly wanted to test his own limits .
If they failed, then so be it . The worst price they would have to pay would be their lives, but if they succeeded, they would gain a lot of experience, become more powerful, and they would likely get their hands on some resources .
Xue Wei was also aware that while this challenge was extremely hard, they had a life-saving card in their hands called Lan, who could save them if the worst possible scenario happened .
