Chapter 159

Thanks to the 150% damage bonus, every slash of his could take away 30% of the fierce beast's HP.

The damage was off the charts.

Compared to before, he would never have dared imagine he could kill a fierce beast of the same tier so easily.

At the same time.

In the dense forest, a figure emerged from the darkness—a thin, small middle-aged man appeared under the moonlight.

He gazed at the black energy barrier at the entrance of the 【Ninefold Abyss】, and a hint of solemnity appeared in his eyes.

"A Tier 7 compound magic array… as expected, the rats have made their move!"

"Wanting to break through this magic array in a short time is a bit tricky…"

Immediately, he stroked the dagger in his hand with a heartache, sighing: "That little fellow Luo Chenyu is way too terrifying. If he grows up, he'll absolutely be a pillar figure of the Xuanlong Nation—he absolutely cannot be allowed to fall here."

"Sorry to put you through this, old buddy!"

After murmuring, his figure vanished into the dense forest.

Stealth—an assassin's specialty.

But…

Before he could get close to the black energy barrier, two figures suddenly appeared on his path forward.

"He Tian, old fool, long time no see!"

"He Tian, old fool, with us brothers here, don't even think about touching the magic array."

The familiar voice came through. He Tian was slightly stunned, then his brow furrowed.

Things were going to be troublesome!

"You two bastards, have become rats too?"

The two black-robed figures before him were his "old acquaintances"—because of certain matters, he had hunted them for several years, and finally captured and sent them to Hell Island.

However… a few years ago, during a riot on Hell Island, some of the criminals escaped.

The brothers Gui Ling and Gui Wu were two among them.

Also Tier 7, though not much of a threat to him, they could hold up his steps.

This was the most serious problem.

If Luo Chenyu were killed because of this bit of time, wouldn't that be a tragedy.

"He Tian, old fool, you're anxious now, hehehe… never thought I'd see that expression on your face in my lifetime, what an honor!"

Gui Ling laughed wildly, his words brimming with provocation.

His brother Gui Wu, however, said: "For you, my brothers went bankrupt to get a Tier 7 True Sight Gem—aren't you going to reveal your true form?"

"Tier 7 True Sight Gem?" He Tian was slightly stunned, then said disdainfully: "Just because of this piece of junk, you want to fight me?"

"You're way too naive!"

Along with He Tian's voice, his body vanished once again from the Gui brothers' line of sight.

"Void Strike?"

"Second brother, you're up!"

As old opponents, the Gui brothers naturally knew He Tian's abilities.

Gui Wu swung the greatsword in his hand, and a grey shield appeared, protecting the two of them within it.

His class, however, was an S-rank hidden class—Death Knight.

If not for his poor mind, his skill levels couldn't be raised, leading to lackluster strength, he wouldn't have been captured by He Tian.

As for Gui Ling, his mind was sharp, but his class was lackluster—merely a C-rank hidden class, Shadow Warlock.

However, the two were very in sync, extremely complementary.

While Gui Ling was giving Gui Wu instructions, he raised the staff in his hand high, and streams of dark-green energy emerged, shrouding a radius of several hundred meters, its scale even exceeding the black energy barrier.

Slow in word, swift in action.

As they released their skills, He Tian's attack had already arrived.

The black dagger merged with the night, launching an attack from behind Gui Ling.

Hiss!

A strange sound rang out, and ripples appeared on the black shield, but it wasn't completely broken through.

At this moment, countless dark-green energies turned into arrows, shooting toward the dagger's location.

If he were truly hit by that, then He Tian wouldn't deserve to be a consultant of the East Sea Enforcement Squad—his figure vanished once again from the spot.

Appearing at his original position.

"Looks like becoming rats has actually improved your strength a bit!"

After saying this, he no longer used stealth-type strikes, but charged straight on.

A head-on fight was, for him, also routine.

The three of them began a chaotic battle.

Suddenly.

A terrifying explosion rang out.

The three afterimages instantly separated, all looking toward the entrance of the 【Ninefold Abyss】.

"How is it possible, the Tier 7 magic array was broken?"

"Holy crap, during this time… could a Tier 8 powerhouse have arrived?"

"Hahaha… stunned, aren't you!"

Three voices blurted out simultaneously, but the next moment…

The three figures vanished instantly from the spot, turning into afterimages as they charged toward a certain place.

………………

Boom!

The father and son of the Wang family stared blankly at the figure that descended from the sky and appeared before their eyes.

A slight pause.

At once, a composed smile suddenly surfaced on Wang Ziquan's face.

"Classmate Luo Chenyu, congratulations—your record of over 400 years has been broken so easily by you."

While speaking, Wang Ziquan also amiably extended his hand.

"Let me introduce myself, my name is…"

Before he could finish, Luo Chenyu laughed—and that smile, no matter how one looked at it, carried a cruel meaning.

"Hahaha, Wang Ziquan, right? The older brother of that little beast Wang Ziqian!"

The moment these words left his mouth.

Wang Ziquan and Wang Meng's expressions changed drastically; Wang Meng even rebuked sharply, "Luo Chenyu, Ziqian and you were classmates at the very least. He has now… already passed away. You… you…"

While speaking, Luo Chenyu's brow suddenly furrowed.

He sensed three powerful figures rushing toward him at great speed, along with the presence of the Green Veil.

And Old Six!

That was the first thought in his mind.

In an instant.

The corner of his mouth lifted slightly. He directly activated 【Spatial Lock】, enclosing the three of them within it—and even considerately canceled the spatial damage.

His gaze fixed on Wang Meng as he slowly began to speak.

"That Sun Zi is dead—of course I know!"

A cruel smile appeared on Luo Chenyu's face as he said, "After all, I personally chopped him into two pieces. Tsk tsk tsk… that scene, it really felt great!"

The moment these words left his mouth.

Wang Ziquan and Wang Meng were not enraged; instead, they were slightly stunned.

"You… you… stop joking!"

Wang Ziquan even forced a smile and said with difficulty, "Classmate Luo, this joke cannot be made…"

The instant 【Spatial Lock】 appeared, they felt an incomparable pressure.

Their strength was not low—Wang Ziquan was at the peak of Tier 5, on the verge of breaking through to Tier 6.

And Wang Meng was a Tier 6 mage, but… he had devoted all his energy to the Maoxiangong Society, so his actual combat ability had long since declined.

The two of them had seen Luo Chenyu fight like he was slicing melons and chopping vegetables.

They knew that even father and son together were no match for Luo Chenyu.
