Chapter 289 - Reward
Chapter 289 Reward
On the opposite, the Shi family’s great elder and the others’ expressions became more and more unsightly because they could clearly feel this killing intent. It was obvious that the other party wanted to completely kill them.
Thinking of the five Transcendence Fruits that they had painstakingly searched for, it was very likely that they would be snatched away by One-Eyed Dragon.
The Shi family’s great elder could not help but say, “Do you know that the Transcendence Fruits that I have searched for are to be given to a lord? This lord’s strength has already reached the Half-Step Gold Rank. If you offend that lord, you will die without a doubt!”
“Half-Step Gold Rank lord? I’m so scared. Come on, come and kill me. Hurry up and call that Half-Step Gold Rank to kill me.”
One-Eyed Dragon pretended to be scared, then laughed out loud and continued to mock.
“Don’t say that you don’t have the chance to call a Half-Step Gold Rank powerhouse. Even if you did, so what?
“I know a direct elder of the Beast Tamer sect. His father is a Gold Rank. A Gold Rank!
“Do you guys know the concept of Gold Rank? “That’s the super-powerful combat strength that dominates this world. Who would dare to provoke such a strong person? “Even if the Half-Step Gold Rank that you guys are talking about comes, he would probably be so scared that he would pee his pants, Hahaha.”
One-Eyed Dragon continued to laugh loudly, looking at the people below mockingly.
What he said was actually a lie. He did not know the direct elder at all. He only knew an ordinary elder.
The reason he said that was because he was certain that he could kill the Shi family’s great elder and the others. That was why he was so arrogant.
However…
After One-Eyed Dragon finished his sentence… The steel mantis that was hiding in the grass slowly raised its head and stared at One-Eyed Dragon
The steel mantis’s eyes were cold, and there was faint killing intent in them.
While the steel mantis was staring at One-Eyed Dragon, the battle finally began. More than 50 people, led by One-Eyed Dragon, charged at the great elder of the Shi family.
Bang! Bang! Bang! The one-sided battle began.
Facing One-Eyed Dragon in his prime, the great elder of the Shi family and the others were forced to retreat. They were quickly injured and were in danger.
Seeing this, One-Eyed Dragon brandished his broadsword even more arrogantly and slashed at the three people in front of him. He could even defeat these three people by himself.
However, One-Eyed Dragon still brought so many people to kill the three elders of the Shi family with all his strength.
Facing the impending victory, One-Eyed Dragon was very excited and brandished his broadsword while laughing wildly.
However, as he fought, he suddenly felt that something was not right. He did not know when it began, but a layer of black fog appeared in the air. This black fog was very thin. If one did not look carefully, one would not be able to see it clearly.
Originally, this was nothing. However, One-Eyed Dragon suddenly discovered that a subordinate behind him had fallen to the ground in a daze. He had completely lost all signs of life.
What was shocking was that the death of this subordinate was only the beginning. Very quickly, the second and third person had fallen to the ground. They had completely lost all signs of life.
“Not good, this black fog is poisonous, be careful!”
One-Eyed Dragon saw that the face of the dead person had turned black, and hurriedly gave an order, instructing his subordinate to run to a place where there was no black fog.
However, as he ran, another person suddenly fell to the ground, lifeless. Then, seven or eight people fell to the ground.
This strange scene caused everyone to feel somewhat horrified. One-Eyed Dragon even looked around solemnly. However, with his Silver Rank Peak strength, he actually could not sense where the enemy was. “What the hell is going on? Who is releasing the poisonous fog? Damn it, get out of the way!”
One-Eyed Dragon roared because a black fog suddenly appeared in the center of everyone. It quickly enveloped several people, and then they died.
Seeing this scene, everyone became more and more frightened. They hurriedly ran far away, and some even had the thought of escaping.
“Damn it, when did I get poisoned!”
One-Eyed Dragon felt that something was wrong with his body. He hurriedly retreated and looked at the Shi family’s great elder and the others in bewilderment.
This was because the three of them were completely fine. This was very strange. “Could this be a trap?”
One-Eyed Dragon began to suspect randomly. He felt that he might have fallen into a trap. This made him have the thought of leaving.
Although the Transcendence Fruits were very precious, he felt that his life was even more precious. In the face of such a strange scene, he decided to hide far away first.
Thinking of this, One-Eyed Dragon hurriedly gave the order and led everyone to leave quickly.
At first, he was still a little hesitant when he left, thinking about whether he should fight back or not.
However, he had just retreated a short distance when someone died for no reason. This scene scared One-Eyed Dragon so much that he ran even faster and directly rushed out of the forest.
On the other side, at the location of the battle…
The Shi family’s great elder, Brother Lei, and the graceful woman looked around in bewilderment.
They did not know what was going on either. Why did someone die all of a sudden when they were clearly fine?
However, they did not dare to move casually because the situation at the scene was too strange. They were worried that they would encounter a dangerous situation.
Boom!
A loud sound suddenly rang out from afar. The source of the sound was surprisingly the direction where One-Eyed Dragon had left. The earth trembled slightly along with the sound.
“What happened? What’s with the booming sound?” The graceful woman asked in bewilderment.
“I don’t know, but we have to be careful. There must be something wrong in this area. Also, we have to be careful of One-Eyed Dragon returning.” The Shi family’s great elder said solemnly.
“That’s right. One-Eyed Dragon is very powerful. With our current situation, we are no match for him. This guy is too powerful.” Brother Lei nodded solemnly.
The three of them were very worried. Firstly, they were worried about the strange situation around them. Secondly, they were worried that One-Eyed Dragon would return. Of course, they were also puzzled by the booming sound.
Time slowly passed while they were worried.
Soon, the grass not far away shook slightly. Four steel mantises walked out from not far away. Their eyes stared coldly at the Shi family’s great elder and the others.
“What kind of creatures are these?”
Brother Lei looked at the four steel mantises with a solemn expression. Suddenly, their pupils constricted because they saw a steel mantis walking over with a large saber in its hand.
This big knife was a big golden ring saber. It was the weapon used by One-Eyed Dragon.
“How is this possible! The one-eyed dragon even threw away his weapon! He must have been heavily injured. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have thrown away his weapon.”
“It must have something to do with the roar just now. Maybe One-Eyed Dragon is already dead.”
“What kind of creatures are these mantises? Why have I never seen them before? They are very dangerous.”
The three of them stared at the steel mantises with a serious expression, each of them looking at them with uncertainty.
At this moment, the steel mantis that was leading the group suddenly waved its steel sickle and wrote a line of words on the ground. Then, it turned around and quickly left with the steel mantises.
“Huh?”
The three of them looked at the steel mantises as they left, and then looked at the words on the ground.
They were stunned at first, but then their expressions changed slightly.
It was because of what was written on the ground. It was asking them to find another Transcendence Fruit as a reward for saving their lives, and give it to their master, Li Xuan.
The words made the three of them realize the origins of these steel mantises.
“The mantises that saved our lives are actually Mr. Li Xuan’s!” The Shi family’s great elder said in disbelief.
“The key is that these mantises are not simple. One-Eyed Dragon that we could not face was actually scared away by a few steel mantises. Moreover, One-Eyed Dragon is very likely to be
dead.”
“Who exactly is Mr. Li Xuan? Are all the mantises that he raises so terrifying?”
The three of them were shocked and doubtful. They respected Li Xuan even more, and they felt that he was becoming more and more mysterious.
