BXBX NOVEL Chapter 260 - The Sinister and Vicious Wang Zhan
Chapter 260: The Sinister and Vicious Wang Zhan
The night was vast and the stars dotted the sky.
In the dark night, a stream of light whistled past.
However, this was not a meteor. Upon closer inspection, there were two human figures within.
Apart from that, a carp that was completely golden swam outside the stream of light.
The stream of light was extremely fast, but no matter how fast it was, the little carp only needed to gently move its tail. Its speed was actually not much inferior to the stream of light.
These were Gu Xi and Liu Qingqing who had gone to rescue Little Nine and Wang Shi.
Not long after, the flowing light’s speed gradually slowed down. In the end, it slowly landed on a protruding hill. The spirit light dispersed, and the two figures were revealed.
“In front is the place where Little Nine sister and the others are trapped.” Liu Qingqing’s expression was serious as she spoke with certainty.
Even though this was her second time here, she did not dare to forget, nor could she forget.
“Let’s go.” Without any unnecessary words, Gu Xi lifted his foot and left.
In order to not attract the attention of others, the two of them chose to advance on foot.
The two figures shuttled through the dense forest one after the other. A distance of more than ten miles only took them a few minutes.
Soon, the two figures stopped.
......
As far as the eye could see, there was a bonfire not far away. Dozens of figures were gathered together.
Gu Xi knew that these were the people who had surrounded Little Nine.
For a moment, killing intent surged in Gu Xi’s heart.
Sensing the cold killing intent that Gu Xi was emitting, Liu Qingqing hurriedly grabbed Gu Xi’s sleeve by the side. She said in a low voice, “Senior Brother Gu, don’t be rash. These are just a few people. If we make a move here, it’s hard to guarantee that we won’t attract the attention of others nearby. Once they surround us, it’ll be difficult for us to escape.”
Hearing this, Gu Xi nodded helplessly.
If something happened to the two of them, Little Nine and the others would be completely hopeless.
“I have to think of a way to sneak in.”
Gu Xi slowly swept his gaze around, trying to find a way to break through.
However, when his gaze swept past the group of people not far away, it finally landed on a man’s figure.
Gu Xi’s expression froze, and a cold light appeared in his eyes.
That person was none other than Wang Zhan of the Hehuan Sect!
Gu Xi had never thought that he would actually run into him here.
At this moment, Wang Zhan was standing on top of a huge rock. There were dozens of participants gathered below him.
“Everyone, this demon beast has already been surrounded. As long as you help me capture or kill that demon beast, our Hehuan Sect will naturally reward you handsomely after the competition is over,” Wang Zhan said confidently, his gaze sizing up the people below.
When he said this, everyone could not help but look at each other with different expressions.
The people who came to surround Little Nine were all hoping to find an opportunity to kill Little Nine and increase their points. They wanted to take this opportunity to lead their sect into the top ten or even the first place.
Wang Zhan’s words caused their hearts to start to waver.
Compared to competing with the great sects and factions of the Vast Expanse Sword Domain for the position in the Spirit-chasing Competition, it was better to live in the present and live in luxury.
Although everyone was against the Hehuan Sect in their hearts, they had to admit that the Hehuan Sect indeed had the strength and backing to say such words.
“I wonder what kind of reward you are talking about, Brother Wang?” a person suddenly asked.
Everyone’s gazes fell on Wang Zhan. Clearly, they were also very curious.
Hearing this, Wang Zhan chuckled. He said, “I can represent the sect to assure everyone here. As long as you help me with this matter, then you can go to my Hehuan Sect to pick up a spirit tool that you all like.”
“Not only that, the first to third floors of our sect’s Cultivation Method Pavilion can also be opened for a month. Everyone can freely practice the cultivation techniques and spirit skills within.”
These two short sentences caused everyone to suck in a breath of cold air.
A spirit tool of a rather high grade plus the freedom to practice the cultivation techniques and spirit skills of the third floor!
This kind of temptation was very difficult to resist.
The Cultivation Method Pavilion of the Hehuan Sect was divided into seven floors. The higher the floor, the higher the quality of the Cultivation Methods, techniques, and spirit skills stored within. Although it was only open to the first three floors, the number of spirit skills stored within could be said to be countless.
Wang Zhan could be said to have spent a lot of capital this time to take LIttle Nine for himself!
“Good! Since Brother Wang is so generous, I naturally have no reason to refuse!”
“Count me in. Since there’s no hope of entering the top ten anyway, why not help Brother Wang!”
“And me!”
...
One after another, voices of agreement rang out one after another. Not long after, everyone present had the same thought — help Wang Zhan!
Seeing this, the smile on Wang Zhan’s face grew wider.
Even though he looked down on these people in his heart, there was nothing he could do. After all, more people meant more power.
Moreover, relying on his own power to restrain Little Nine was undoubtedly a pipe dream.
As the Favored Son of Heaven of the Hehuan Sect, Wang Zhan was not a fool.
“Since that’s the case, I’ll have to trouble everyone to spread this news as soon as possible. As long as it’s a brother who can come and help me, there will be a reward like I said!”
Following Wang Zhan’s order, the group of people dispersed and began to spread the news.
Soon, only two men, who were also disciples of the Hehuan Sect, were left.
Watching those people disappear into the night, a man said with a bitter smile, “Senior Brother, isn’t the reward too generous?”
He knew that the news of two injured high-level demon beasts had already begun to leak. It was likely that a large number of participants were gathering here.
At that time, thousands of people would gather here. If they were promised a reward, even the Hehuan Sect would lose a piece of their flesh.
“Give them a reward?” Wang Zhan gave a strange smile. His gaze immediately turned towards the direction where those people had left. “They would have to leave the planar battlefield alive to get it!”
Hearing this, the expressions of the two people beside him turned cold.
“You mean...” that person hesitated for a moment before speaking with some uncertainty.
“The Spirit-chasing Competition has just begun. We have plenty of time.” Wang Zhan spoke coldly. There was an unknown meaning in his words. “These people think that they can obtain the rewards of our Hehuan Sect. They should first take a look at themselves. What a bunch of weaklings.”
Gu Xi and Liu Qingqing naturally heard their conversation, as they were hiding in the dark not far away. If it was not for Liu Qingqing stopping Gu Xi, he would have rushed up and executed Wang Zhan on the spot.
“This Wang Zhan is really ruthless.” Looking at Wang Zhan by the bonfire, Liu Qingqing spoke in a low voice.
From Wang Zhan’s words, it was clear that this guy did not intend to let these people live.
Gu Xi, on the other hand, was deep in thought.
He did not want to meddle in the lives of others, nor was he interested in it.
