Chapter 2389: Chapter 2394: Variables [Fifth Update]

Gao Wei looked at Lan Lianxue with a blank expression.

If this girl insists on blocking.

Then don’t blame our All-Heaven Mercenary Corps for being ruthless!

"Captain! What should we do now."

Lan Lianxue can’t afford to offend a Demon Infant Late Stage cultivator.

So she had to rely on Xia Liu.

"Haha! So you two are also a mercenary corps?"

Looking at Xia Liu and Lan Lianxue, Gao Wei couldn’t help but laugh.

A mercenary corps with just two people, actually daring to hunt on Sea Demon Island.

Isn’t that courting death?

Of course, this is good too, they can easily snatch their prey.

Gao Wei and his members have been here for dozens of days without finding a single demon beast.

And now they are lucky enough to get a prey without any effort.

It’s simply exhilarating!

To be honest, he didn’t want to harm Xia Liu and Lan Lianxue.

After all, their luck was pretty good.

Following them.

They might be able to snatch one or two demon beasts!

Haha...

"We are the Osmanthus Mercenary Corps, I’m the captain Xia Liu, with terrifying strength, I advise you to leave immediately, or bear the consequences!"

Lan Lianxue said unceremoniously.

"Oh? That pretty boy? Captain? Bear the consequences?"

"Hahaha..."

The members of All-Heaven Mercenary Corps laughed until they bent over.

This kind of combination, it’s simply giving free points.

Still thinking they would regret it, that’s impossible!

"You guys are truly unreasonable!"

After venting, Lan Lianxue looked at Xia Liu: "Captain! It’s time to show your true strength!"

"Come on! Let us see the terrifying strength of this pretty boy! Don’t make us laugh to death!"

"Haha! I’m already dying of laughter, okay?"

"Hahaha..."

Xia Liu remained silent, accompanied by the jeering of the All-Heaven Mercenary Corps members.

Lan Lianxue was tempted to draw her sword and fight them.

But she didn’t quite dare.

"Captain..."

"Shh..."

Xia Liu made a gesture to silence them, as if he was seriously listening for something.

"Captain, what’s going on?"

Things have developed to this point, if they don’t teach these people a lesson.

They might swell with pride!

"I seem to hear a heartbeat."

"A heartbeat?"

Lan Lianxue looked bewildered; any cultivator, if they listen closely, can hear everyone’s heartbeat here.

"Haha! Young man, are you here just to make us laugh?"

"Are you trying to make us laugh to death, and then your plan will succeed?"

"Haha!"

The members of All-Heaven Mercenary Corps started jeering and laughing again.

Their expressions really deserved a beating.

"Captain!"

Lan Lianxue called again.

"Sometimes it’s far, sometimes it’s near..."

Xia Liu continued to listen.

Because he sensed a demon beast with Demon Venerable Level strength nearby.

But he couldn’t determine the location of this beast!

The opponent didn’t leak any demonic Qi, he could only hear the heartbeat different from a human’s.

Just as Lan Lianxue was about to speak.

Xia Liu suddenly hugged her.

ROAR!!!

Next, a deafening roar resounded ahead.

Gao Wei bore the brunt of it.

The members of the All-Heaven Mercenary Corps were also severely injured by the roar.

Then everyone present saw the low mound behind them rising from the ground.

Powerful demon power leaked from every part of the mound.

The intensity was at least Demon Lord Third Stage!

"Ahhh!"

Seeing the mound’s appearance fully transform into a stone-like demon beast, all the members of the All-Heaven Mercenary Corps panicked.

Screaming in horror.

Lan Lianxue was also scared out of her wits.

That was a strong being of Demon Lord Third Stage level!

If there wasn’t Instant Body Transmission, or a Demon Venerable strong man to rescue today, everyone present would surely die!

Before everyone’s eyes, that demon beast opened its bloody mouth and swallowed the Demon Infant strength demon beast bound in front of it!

Squeak squeak...

Everyone could clearly hear the gigantic chewing sound.

And blood was oozing from the corners of its partly closed mouth!

The scene became bloody!

After devouring the Low-Rank demon beast.

The giant beast looked down at everyone: "Humans!"

Two disdainful words, filled with overwhelming rage.

A giant claw swung, carrying grand demonic essence.

Cracking the void itself!

This proved just how terrifying its strength was!

Xia Liu glanced briefly, then rushed away with his movement technique, turning into an afterimage to retreat.

Five hundred miles away, Xia Liu stopped.

Putting Lan Lianxue down.

"Captain! Captain!"

Suddenly leaving the warm embrace.

It scared Lan Lianxue.

It was her first time going out to hunt beasts and she encountered a powerful Demon Venerable level existence.

Her little heart was about to burst from fear.

"Don’t panic, we’ve safely retreated."

"Phew, that was a false alarm. If we had been a little later, we might have become food in the beast’s mouth."

Seeing no disturbance around.

Her demon consciousness didn’t capture any trace of the previous scene.

Lan Lianxue’s heart finally relaxed.

"Luckily those people attracted the giant beast’s attention, otherwise it would’ve been difficult."

If a fierce battle had broken out on the scene.

Lan Lianxue might have been injured by the aftermath.

So Xia Liu decided to lead her to retreat from the battlefield first.

As for those from the All-Heaven Mercenary Corps.

He didn’t care if they lived or died, if he returned and found them not yet devoured by the giant beast, it would mean they weren’t destined to die.

"Captain, we should leave quickly, otherwise when the giant beast arrives, we won’t be able to leave."

Lan Lianxue suggested.

"Leaving is a must, but I have some business to attend to first. Don’t move from this circle."

Xia Liu formed a seal at the spot where Lan Lianxue stood and drew a circle.

Blood-red light burst from the circle’s line.

Sealing her within.

"Do not step outside this circle, no person or demon beast will be able to perceive your presence."

"What an incredible ability!"

Watching Xia Liu’s gradually receding figure, Lan Lianxue shivered uncontrollably.

Standing inside the circle, she felt isolated from the world, unable to sense the outside.

Even experiencing an illusion that not even a Demon Lord First Stage could break this red circle.

Not knowing what Xia Liu needed to do, Lan Lianxue could only quietly wait in place.

On the battlefield where the giant beast appeared, flames blazed, leaving everything within a hundred miles to become scorched earth.

From the All-Heaven Mercenary Corps, only those with High-Rank Demon Infant cultivation survived.

Though they weren’t doing well either.

Currently, they were desperately resisting the giant beast’s demon might.

"Captain! I can’t hold on any longer!"

"I can’t hold on either!"

Gao Wei had tears but nowhere to shed them.

Snatching someone else’s prey, it was his first time doing such.

Who would have thought, not even getting a chance to finish the snatch.

The consequences came crashing down!

Now, most of the team members were dead, and at this rate, everyone would be devoured clean by this giant beast.

"Heavens! Open your eyes! If there’s a next time, I definitely won’t rob someone else’s prey!"

Gao Wei screamed fiercely.

At that moment, a mocking voice was heard.

"Hehe, if you rob someone else’s things, be prepared, death is just one possibility..."
