Chapter 69

Qian Ye was greatly shaken, but at this moment, his heart had already stopped beating. The military technique of turtle breathing, used for extreme environmental concealment, could also be used to feign death in times of danger. Once activated, the secret technique would render him completely unable to move or defend himself for half an hour.

The moment Qian Ye saw the black-robed figure, he knew he could not resist. Relying on his years of combat instincts, he decisively activated the secret technique. Indeed, that person almost destroyed his will, forged through mountains of knives and seas of blood, with just a single search thought. Such power was comparable to the legendary Dark Grand Duke!

Unexpectedly, just as he had narrowly escaped, the black blood within his body began to stir, but Qian Ye was powerless to do anything about it.

He was now fully conscious but felt as if his mind was completely separated from his body, coldly observing the black blood boiling and churning like water coming to a boil.

Qian Ye suddenly realized that the surging blood qi was not a single stream. In the rolling black flow, countless fine threads of blood qi were chasing, entangling, and fiercely fighting each other!

The blood qi, predominantly dark red and nearly black, clearly outnumbered the others. The pale golden and eerie purple blood qi, though conspicuous, were few in number. However, after a short while, the battle situation was overturned. The dark red blood qi was continuously shredded, gradually weakening until only a few remained. The pale golden blood qi remained unchanged, while the eerie purple blood qi, after killing several dark red threads, expanded by a full circle.

The blood boiling stopped as suddenly as it started. When Qian Ye came to his senses, everything was over. His limbs could move again, and he was drenched in sweat, from his undergarments to his hair, as if he had been immersed in a pool of water.

The black blood in his veins had become lighter, with a few threads of blood qi slowly moving, not causing any ripples. The primal force surged out from three nodes, once again filling his limbs and bones.

Qian Ye slowly restored his body's mobility inch by inch, checking for any hidden dangers left by the military secret technique and the blood boiling. Everything seemed normal for now. At the same time, he began to ponder the encounter.

The power of the black-robed figure could be described as deep and prison-like. Such a powerful being was enough to influence the entire continent's situation. Why would he suddenly appear around the small Dark Blood City and linger? There must be something nearby that attracted this great figure of the dark race. Regardless of the reason, it was a war he had no right to participate in.

As for the black blood in his body, it was still uncontrollable. Qian Ye emptied a primal force bullet and reloaded it, infusing another thread of blood qi, marking the solid bullet with his unique signature.

Qian Ye stared at the transparent bullet for a while and then threw the small thing back into the bullet box. The recent frequent changes in the black blood had numbed Qian Ye, so he decided that as long as it did not hinder his combat, he would ignore it!

The wilderness had become extremely dangerous. After fully recovering, Qian Ye was even more cautious and dared not use extreme running recklessly. He cautiously advanced, barely arriving at the designated assembly point before the deadline.

Yu Yingnan, Yang Tian, and others were all there, waiting for Qian Ye alone.

Seeing Qian Ye, Li Lunzhe grunted heavily and sneered, "To run for three days on such a short distance, your speed is really impressive!"

Qian Ye's brows furrowed, and his face immediately darkened.

However, before Qian Ye could react, Yu Yingnan's cold voice rang out, "Qian Ye arrived within the agreed time. What's the problem with that?"

Li Lunzhe was taken aback, then showed a look of indignation and grievance, and angrily said, "Sister Nan! What do you mean? We all arrived early and waited for him for half a day! The deadline is just the minimum requirement. In normal circumstances, one should arrive as early as possible, which is an unwritten rule among hunters. Am I wrong? Sister Nan, you... do you have a crush on this pretty boy?"

With a rustle, no one expected Yu Yingnan to suddenly draw her pistol and point it directly at Li Lunzhe's forehead!

Yu Yingnan said, word by word, "Who I like is my business! It's none of your damn business!"

Everyone was momentarily stunned, completely unexpected her reaction to be so intense, and her expression was not joking at all.

Yang Tian, seeing the situation was wrong, immediately reached out to push Yu Yingnan's gun barrel to the side and said, "Yingnan! We are teammates now, there's no need for this."

Then Yang Tian said to Li Lunzhe, "Qian Ye is now our teammate. He just became a hunter and may not be familiar with many rules. There's no need to be so picky. Also, be careful with your words."

Yang Tian was a veteran hunter with considerable influence and prestige. Since he stepped in to mediate, Li Lunzhe said nothing more. He raised his hands, took two steps back, and indicated that he would yield this time. However, from his defiant eyes and the hateful smile on his face, it was clear that this matter was far from over.

Yu Yingnan hummed and ignored Li Lunzhe, leading the way forward. Yang Tian and Zaxi followed.

Li Lunzhe deliberately lagged behind, waiting for Qian Ye to catch up, and whispered, "Kid, this isn't over. Be careful when you go out of the city in the future, don't let me catch you!"

Qian Ye glanced at him and said indifferently, "So eager to die?"

Li Lunzhe suddenly stopped, his eyes filled with killing intent, and angrily said, "Die? Just you? A one-star hunter?"

"Idiot." Qian Ye left this comment and ignored Li Lunzhe, following Yu Yingnan.

Yu Yingnan was now crouched at the edge of a cliff, looking down into the valley, while Yang Tian had already infiltrated the valley.

At the bottom of the valley was a cave, with several gray wolves lying at the entrance, seemingly on guard or dozing.

Yang Tian, being an expert in dealing with werewolves, had already approached within thirty meters of the cave without any reaction from the gray wolves.

Yang Tian suddenly stood up, threw several grenades into the cave in quick succession, and then drew his pistol, firing rapidly. Amid the gunshots, the guard wolves didn't even have time to stand up before they were shot in the head, whimpering as they fell.

The grenades Yang Tian threw into the cave were smoke grenades mixed with primal force agents, and a pale yellow smoke quickly billowed out from the cave entrance.

"Go!" Yu Yingnan shouted, leaping directly from the cliff. This was a hundred-meter-high cliff!

Midway through her descent, she threw a chain backward, anchoring it to the cliff, and then swung to the valley floor. When Yu Yingnan's feet touched the ground, her landing was so smooth that she immediately charged toward the cave, firing as she ran, shooting down a werewolf that suddenly appeared.

Li Lunzhe also leaped down, using a chain to anchor himself to the cliff to slow his descent. However, unlike Yu Yingnan, he needed to use the chain three times to reach the valley floor.

However, halfway down, Li Lunzhe suddenly saw a figure lightly leap over his head and directly land in the valley. It was Qian Ye, who had actually reached the valley floor before him!

Li Lunzhe was momentarily stunned and involuntarily looked up at the cliff, but found no other climbing tools. How did Qian Ye get down without any tools?

Qian Ye had already followed Yu Yingnan's footsteps and charged into the cave. Li Lunzhe finally came to his senses and quickly followed.

Only Zaxi was left behind, needing to use a pulley rope to enter the valley. By the time he landed, the others had already rushed into the werewolf den. He did not follow them but began setting up various traps in the valley.

Qian Ye followed Yu Yingnan into the werewolf den, passing through winding tunnels, and suddenly came to a five-way fork.

Several fierce werewolves rushed out from one of the tunnels. Yu Yingnan took a step forward, blocking the path, then pointed to another direction and called out, "Qian Ye! Charge that way and try to find the totem. I'll do my best to hold off the werewolves!"

Yang Tian directly threw a grenade into the tunnel Yu Yingnan pointed to, immediately creating a large cloud of pale yellow smoke. He then turned and charged into another tunnel.

In the pale yellow smoke, the werewolves let out painful whimpers, and many of the weaker ones began rolling on the ground. The smoke had an extremely pungent smell, which was like a deadly poison to the werewolves with their keen sense of smell.

Qian Ye charged into the tunnel Yu Yingnan had indicated, running at full speed. Once out of their sight, his pace suddenly changed, and his speed doubled! At some corners with a slope but no sharp obstacles, Qian Ye even stepped on the cave walls without slowing down!

As he passed a tunnel entrance, two werewolves suddenly rushed out. However, Qian Ye's sudden acceleration made them miss. The werewolves pursued relentlessly, but the distance between them and Qian Ye only grew.

The two werewolves stared with wide eyes, unable to believe that Qian Ye could outrun them in their own den!

Qian Ye ran faster and faster, moving like the wind. Suddenly, a massive wolf rushed out, its body almost filling the tunnel. It crouched on all fours, head raised, and let out a fierce roar at Qian Ye.

Qian Ye's face suddenly showed a fierce expression, and with a low growl, he charged forward!

A dull thud echoed, and the massive wolf was the one thrown back! It whimpered, and before it could land, a fist grew larger in its field of vision!

With a crunch, the massive wolf's nose was completely smashed by Qian Ye.

Qian Ye grabbed the wolf's hind legs and swung it around, throwing it at the pursuing werewolves. The two werewolves roared in anger, bypassing the dead wolf, and pounced on Qian Ye from both sides.

But this brief delay gave Qian Ye the chance to aim his 'Assault Hand' at the werewolf on the left. The gun roared, and the werewolf was blasted away, its chest a mess of blood and flesh.

Qian Ye then dropped the 'Assault Hand' and grabbed the other werewolf's paws, engaging in a struggle.

The werewolf roared at Qian Ye and suddenly opened its mouth to bite his throat!

However, its bite only reached halfway before turning into a skyward howl of pain!

Qian Ye exerted his strength, and with a crunch, the werewolf's paws were broken! The werewolf was at least twice Qian Ye's size and known for its strength, yet it was defeated in this struggle!

Qian Ye's hands shot out, grabbing the werewolf's upper and lower jaws. With another roar, he exerted his strength and tore off the lower jaw.

The werewolf immediately fell into a near-death state, collapsing on the ground, its limbs twitching.

The other werewolf struggled to stand, seeing this scene, and showed deep fear in its eyes. Qian Ye steadily approached the werewolf, and it suddenly whimpered, turning to flee!

Qian Ye suddenly accelerated, following closely behind, and pounced on the werewolf's back. He reached forward, grabbed the werewolf's head, and twisted it with all his might!

With a crunch, the werewolf's neck was broken.
