Chapter 568: No Way Out
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“It’s all your doing?” Fearless lifted his head and saw Hidden Lurker smirking. He suddenly understood what was going on.
Fearless was still confused over why did Berserk Heavenlaw attack them without saying anything even though they were passing by. It seemed so out of the blue.
No matter how large Berserk Heavenlaw was, they could not be so unreasonable. So all these were incited by Hidden Lurker.
Fearless was caught most off guard by how even though Hidden Lurker belonged to a guild, he meddled with another guild to start trouble. He made it such a big deal to tackle just a dozen people. Based on his usual self, he must have placed himself at the top of the moral pyramid. How disgusting.
Hidden Lurker saw Fearless’ expression and felt extremely good, then happily said, “Leader Fearless, be careful with your choice of words. How is this my doing? Isn’t this your forte?”
“Hehe, are you referring to gossiping and lying?” Fearless coldly asked.
Hidden Lurker ignored Fearless’ sarcasm and casually smiled, “Say what you want. As long as I can eliminate you guys, I am the intelligent one.”
“Shameless!” Fearless was pale white and gritted his teeth as he spoke.
If they were at a practice area in the wild, based on Quan Zhen Sect’s bad temper, they would start a fight with Hidden Lurker. However, now that they were at the city gate. As foreigners, if Quan Zhen Sect dared to attack, they would be jointly attacked if they caused a ruckus.
Right now, Ironcliff Fortress’ support troops were after them while they have been stopped from returning by the United Alliance. Quan Zhen Sect had no way out.
Fearless was confident in his own intelligence. Back then, when Quan Zhen Sect had only five people, they were already able to stir trouble largely thanks to Fearless’ command.
Fearless never thought that he would be sabotaged so badly by the person he hated the most. Most importantly, he had even defeated this guy before so he always thought of him as a pathetic lad.
“Why, are you guys afraid?” Hidden Lurker said with slight disdain as he smilingly said, “Handover the quest item or else you b*stards can be prepared to die again and again!”
Hearing his words, Quan Zhen Sect’s players turned pale in fear.
Berserk Heavenlaw had been pranked by Quan Zhen Sect before while Hidden Lurker had a deep-seated animosity with them. With these two guilds in alliance, and Hidden Lurker’s hatred for Quan Zhen Sect, they definitely could kill them again and again.
“Hehe!” Just then, a cold laugh broke the tension. Wang Yu stared at Hidden Lurker and said, “I have killed you so many times, and you still dare to make such bold claims. Seems like you have not learnt your lesson.”
“…” Hidden Lurker saw Wang Yu and shivered. His legs turned weak but luckily Nian Liuyun supported him before he embarrassed himself in front of them.
Hidden Lurker calmed down and replied, “Hmph, I know how strong you are, Iron Bull, but there are so few of you taking on two large guilds of people. Even if you can escape unscath, can you protect all your friends?”
Seems like Hidden Lurker had a lot of respect for Wang Yu’s abilities. He had so many people on his side and even had the upper-hand as it was his homeground. Seeing how Hidden Lurker had no confidence to defeat Wang Yu at all, it shows how traumatised he was by Wang Yu.
Quan Zhen Sect heard Hidden Lurker’s words and felt uneasy. Those people were aggressive fighters who were extremely ruthless. In the past, even though their reputation was bad, they had never been despised for their abilities. However, to Hidden Lurker, they had to be protected. They could not suck this humiliation up.
Although Hidden Lurker spoke the truth, it was better to keep such things to himself as it hurt the others’ ego.
“What a joke!” Fearless stared at Hidden Lurker and said, “In the past, even without Old Bull, we did not even fear that old Termination Manor leader of yours. We are definitely not afraid of you guys, a bunch of mediocre players.”
At the same time, Fearless ordered in the guild chat, “Old Bull, kill Hidden Lurker, the rest of us turn back!”
“Sigh, you are trying to resist forecefully… Argh…”
Hidden Lurker barely finished speaking and Wang Yu appeared in front of him in a flash. He used his hand and held on to Hidden Lurker’s neck.
Nian Liuyun saw what happened and quickly jumped forward to pull Wang Yu.
However, Nian Liuyun was too slow. By then, Wang Yu had already snapped Hidden Lurker’s neck. Keeping up with the momentum, he used a hand knife and stabbed it into Nian Liuyun’s chest. Nian Liuyun also turned into white light.
Without Hidden Lurker’s command, the United Alliance lost direction. Seeing how both their leader and their town’s expert being killed by Wang Yu in a second, the United Alliance’s players were stunned… All of them were lost and did not know what to do.
Quan Zhen Sect seized this opportunity to turn back and run away.
Hidden Lurker instantly appeared at the resurrection location. He also knew his subordinates’ weakness and hence, opened the guild chat and yelled, “Don’t just stand there, kill them!”
The United Alliance’s players’ only merit was their obedience. Seeing Hidden Lurker’s order, they immediately chased them.
Quan Zhen Sect’s players did not run far before noticing that Berserk Heavenlaw’s support troops from Ironcliff Fortress had caught up with them. Behind them, the United Alliance were not far too.
“F*ck, we are screwed!” Looking at how they were trapped by their opponent front and back, Ming Du could not help but scream.
“F*ck!” Crotch Lord smashed his shield on the ground and angrily said, “Why are we still running? Let’s go all out against them!”
Hearing what Crotch Lord said, everyone else gripped tightly on to their weapons and prepared to go all out.
Quan Zhen Sect had all sorts of scumbags but did not have a scaredy cat. After being chased by so many people in the past, they had always managed to flip the tables. However, now that they had to be beaten up like wild dogs in an alley, they were fuming mad.
Even Spring Halo, who always supported Fearless, showed his determination and prepared to fight hard.
Wang Yu turned around and pointed at the United Alliance’s player who caught up with him and said, “I’ll charge forward and see if I can clear a path for you guys!”
“Stop joking with us. They have at least a thousand people. How can you help us escape? Do you really think that you are Superman?” Fearless said coldly.
Wang Yu had Qing Gong and so, if he wanted, he could escape. However, it was definitely impossible for him to kill more than a thousand people to clear a path.
“So should we continue to escape?” Ming Du said enigmatically.
Fearless had ordered them to retreat multiple times and this upset the Quan Zhen Sect players who were used to be domineering. Just then, Fearless gave a suggestion.
“No! Let’s go up the mountain!” Fearless pointed to the hill by the roadside.
Ming Du heard him and said, “Does this mean that we have no way out?”
“Obviously!” Fearless stared at Ming Du and scolded, “Stop your sarcasm. Just obediently follow behind and see how I will defeat them till they question the meaning of life!”
