Chapter 39: Want to Kill Me?!

This time, Xiao Bei no longer left the tent and quickly walked away as he did two days ago. Instead, he deliberately slowed his pace.

Moreover, Xiao Bei deliberately released all his aura as soon as he came out, and at the same time, he made his aura appear similar to that of a mid-stage Seventh Rank Later Heaven Warrior.

Not only that, Xiao Bei also deliberately made his aura seem strong yet weak, as if the injuries he sustained from using the "Blood Sacrifice Technique" in his battle with Xiao Li a few days ago had not healed at all, and his recent performance was just an act.

This was because Xiao Bei had decided that Xiao Yun and the others were a nuisance. He had tolerated them again and again, but they never appreciated it and instead became even more hostile towards him. It seemed he had no choice but to take action.

After all, there was no longer any blood or kinship to speak of with such people... Moreover, from the current behavior of Xiao Yun and the others, it seemed they might be planning to ambush him.

"What? Xiao Yun went in another direction?"

When he was about five hundred meters away from the original tent, Xiao Bei frowned. He could sense that originally, five people were following him, but now only four were still following him. They were Xiao Bing, Xiao Ling, and Xiao Peng, led by the pale and thin Ninth Rank Later Heaven Warrior youth whom he had seen in the inner room of the library.

Among them, the one who most made Xiao Bei want to kill was Xiao Yun, and he was the one missing!

Shaking his head, Xiao Bei felt the four people following him openly and made a judgment... Better to err on the side of caution. First, he would see what these people really thought of him and whether his final move would really have to be decisive, leaving no survivors.

"Whether I have the intention to kill is not important. What's important is whether you value your own lives and whether you are bringing this upon yourselves... So, the key is that those who save others must first save themselves. Your lives are in your own hands."

With a flash, Xiao Bei entered a slightly denser forest as if nothing had happened.

Behind him, the pale and thin youth, Xiao Bing, and the others followed Xiao Bei into the forest without hesitation.

...

"Alright, this is the place."

After about an hour, Xiao Bei stopped in the depths of the mountains.

Surrounded by tall, unknown trees, Xiao Bei first收敛了气息, then quietly stood on a tall tree by the path where Xiao Yun and the others would definitely pass, using the dense branches to cover himself. He prepared to listen to what Xiao Bing and the other four would discuss about him and what their plot was.

If Xiao Bei heard that Xiao Bing and the others had murderous intentions towards him, he would definitely take action immediately without delay. But if they were just planning to play a prank on him, Xiao Bei wouldn't go to the extreme...

"Huh? Where is that waste of space? Why can't I sense his aura here?"

When Xiao Bing said this, his face showed a hint of cruelty.

"Just now, I still felt his aura here..." The pale and thin youth stepped forward, his face showing confusion, as if talking to himself or to Xiao Bing and the others. "It's impossible. From his aura, his recent behavior of acting as if nothing happened is definitely an act. That battle with Xiao Li, the cannon fodder, must have severely injured him. Just now, I sensed that his aura was only about the level of a Seventh Rank Later Heaven Warrior, which is a clear sign of a wounded Eighth Rank Later Heaven Warrior... Where could he have gone? He can't possibly be walking faster than us, right?"

"Xiao Sa, I think Xiao Bei knows he's injured and not a match for us, so he didn't dare return to the tent last night to avoid exposing himself. This time, he only dared to return because he colluded with Xiao Ting."

Xiao Ling's smile was nauseating, and combined with his extremely thin, dark, and rat-like face, it left a bad impression.

When he saw the pale youth, Xiao Sa, looking at him with a cold expression, Xiao Ling awkwardly said, "I feel that Xiao Bei is still nearby and hasn't gone far. We should split up and search for him. Once we find him, we'll cripple him..."

"Cripple? How do you plan to cripple him? With you?"

Xiao Peng rolled his eyes at Xiao Ling. This burly man, Xiao Peng, was older and, among the four, was the second strongest after the Ninth Rank Later Heaven Warrior Xiao Sa. His strength was that of a Seventh Rank Later Heaven Warrior.

"What do you mean Xiao Bei is injured and not a match for us? Can you beat Xiao Bei? Ha, it all depends on our leader, Xiao Sa. As long as the Ninth Rank Later Heaven Warrior Xiao Sa takes action, crippling Xiao Bei will be a piece of cake."

Hiding in the tree, Xiao Bei silently watched the rough smile on Xiao Peng's face and listened to his flattery, somewhat surprised that such a seemingly straightforward and rough man was actually so "attentive."

"Truly, one cannot judge a person by their appearance. Xiao Peng is indeed a hypocritical scum... Xiao Sa, so the pale and thin youth is called Xiao Sa, and you want to cripple me? Haha..."

Knowing their intentions, Xiao Bei was about to leave and carry out his original plan... "Cripple? This person must not be left alive. Xiao Sa, we should... cut..."

Xiao Bing's words made Xiao Bei, who was in the tree, stop his body that was about to leap into the air, his face turning cold.

"Hmm... No matter what, Xiao Bei is still a member of our Xiao family. Even though he is a bastard, he has the blood of the Xiao family. Killing him would be too much... Xiao Bing, are you trying to use me to eliminate your enemy? Hmm?"

Xiao Sa gave a cold look, especially the last "hmm," which was drawn out with a heavy questioning tone.

Xiao Bing, looking at Xiao Sa, shrank back and avoided his gaze, saying, "No, no, I just hate him too much. I didn't mean anything else, Xiao Sa, don't misunderstand."

"That's good. Xiao Bing, no matter what, we are still clan members. Killing someone is a bit too much... However, teaching him a lesson is necessary, to let him know that some people are destined to be useless, even if their luck changes, they still can't compare to others... Also, we should stay together. Otherwise, if you encounter Xiao Bei, you will definitely be taught a lesson by him, after all, your cultivation is far below his."

Xiao Sa lectured Xiao Bing.

Xiao Bei, in the tree, seemed to understand something... "It seems Xiao Sa is purely jealous of me. When he speaks, his killing intent is minimal. Xiao Sa, you can live, and so can Xiao Ling and Xiao Peng, but you will be crippled! As for Xiao Bing... you must die in the incident I will create! Those who kill others will perish by their own hand! Want to kill me?"
