Red Envelope Group of the Three Realms

 “Ah… Argh…”

Woldemar let out a shrill scream and blood came spurting out of his mouth. Seconds later, the Violent Colossal Rhino wielded its horn at Woldemar. The two of them moved so fast that ten strikes were passed within the blink of an eye. At the third strike, the rhino managed to shatter Woldemar’s long sword and at the seventh strike, it managed to break Woldemar’s defense. Seeing that his defense was down, the rhino launched multiple strikes on him relentlessly. And at the tenth strike, its horn penetrated Woldemar’s Dantian. This battle was enough to prove that why Demonic Beast was such a terrifying presence to humans. Elites that had the same combat power with them would never be able to defeat them.

“Help…. Help me… Ning Yuchen! Save me! Please… help me…”

With his Dantian pierced, Woldemar’s cultivation was destroyed. He could nothing else but wait to be rescued.

Ning Yuchen was no fool He just had a brush with death, why would he save Woldemar?

Most importantly, even if he did fight the rhinoceros, it would be useless.

“Roar!”

The rhinoceros was not in a rush to kill Woldemar. It speared through Woldemar’s body with its horn and threw him into the air, as if it was showing off its trophy.

But upon closer look, that was not its intention. The giant rhinoceros had fixed its eyes on Chen Xiaobei, waiting for him to issue the final order.

Chen Xiaobei was a Celestial Cultivated Gold-tier Elite after all! If Chen Xiaobei did not make his intention known, the giant rhinoceros would not know if it would live or die!

When Chen Xioabei nodded his head subtly, the giant rhinoceros let out a sigh of relief.

“Roar!”

The giant creature threw up its head violently, tossing Wodema like trash onto the ground and then raised its barrel forelegs to prepare to squash Woldemar’s head.

“Help… Help me…”

Woldemar did not expect things to turn out the way they did. His cultivation was trashed, he was badly injured and moments before his death, he wet his pants.

Smash!

Woldemar’s head was crushed like a grape under the heavy stump of the rhinoceros. His blood painted the ground and the trees nearby an eerie red.

He had taken this upon himself. He did not deserve mercy from anyone.

The giant rhinoceros took a peek at Chen Xiaobei, saw that there was nothing else he wanted it to do, and fled for its life.

“What… happened?”

Ning Yuchen scratched his head.

Hu Ben and Liu Chen hurried down the tree, mouth ajar and wondering.

“Why did the rhinoceros turn around and attack Woldemar?” Nin Yuchen asked.

“Woldemar was so strong. The giant rhinoceros killed him but left us the weaker ones alive… That doesn’t make any sense…” Hu Ben gulped.

“Strange… That’s what this is…” Liu Chen said. “Captain, did anything strange happen when the rhinoceros stood right in front of you?”

“I was too nervous to notice anything…” Ning Yuchen scrambled through his thoughts and then looked at Chen Xiaobei. “Zhufeng, you were mumbling some gibberish just now. Were you talking to the beast?”

“No.” Chen Xiaobei shrugged. “Where would I learn how to speak their language? Stop kidding around.”

“But after you finished mumbling, the giant rhinoceros charged toward Woldemar!”

“I think it must be because the rhino thinks that that idiot looks really ugly!” Chen Xiaobei chuckled. “You know that this is a superficial world. Ugly people should stay at home more! Someone as ugly as he is must have frightened the beast! It’s his own fault!”

Ning Yuchen raised an eyebrow. “What kind of reason is that… Woldemar died because you are good looking and he was ugly?”

“Maybe it’s also because he was despicable?” Chen Xiaobei shrugged. “Let’s not get too hung up on this. All that matters is that everyone is fine! The world is better with one less dickhead! If he had lived, he might launch some sort of attack on us!”

“Zhufeng is right!” Hu Ben chimed in. “What’s more important is that both of you are unharmed. Tomorrow, we’ll have beers on me! We won’t leave until we’re all pissed drunk! Zhufeng, you must give face!”

“Me? Alright!”

Chen Xiaobei nodded.

Drinking is a good way to build rapport, and the watering hole was the best way to get to know this environment.

“Liu Chen, are you coming?” Ning Yuchen asked.

“I…” Liu Chen looked at Chen Xiaobei and said, “I’m going! I need to apologize to Chen Zhufeng! All that time, I was standing by Woldemar, making fun of Chen Zhufend’s cultivation… But in the face of danger, the one with the highest cultivation sold out his fellow comrade! Instead, the one with the lowest cultivation stood by his comrade… I was prejudiced. Chen Zhufeng, I’m really sorry! I won’t tease you about your cultivation anymore… Even though it’s low, you are brave! A true ma! I, Liu Chen is truly impressed by you!”

Chen Xiaobei smiled at this and said, “We shouldn’t make each other’s life difficult since we are on the same level!”

With all the experiences he had gathered, Chen Xiaobei had turned from an inexperienced big boy who would drool at any pretty girl to a real man who was calm and steady.

“Haha…” Liu Chen smiled. “I am Three-Star Black Steel. You are zero star. From now on, I will not trouble you; in fact, I will protect you!”

“Haha…” Ning Yuchen and Hu Ben laughed. “Our Liu Chen has grown up! She’s become so sensible!’

“Humph! What do you mean? Was I very childish and fickle?”

Liu Chen stamped her feet angrily.

“No! No! No! Liu Chen is the best!”

Ning Yuchen and Hu Ben quickly shook their heads.

Seeing this merry moment, Chen Xiaobei suddenly felt that being the newbie was not so bad after all.

“What should we do next?” Hu Ben asked.

“We retreat to the outer part of the forest! The beasts in the core are too strong! It’ll be dangerous if we stay!” Ning Yuchen said in a serious manner.

“Wait a minute.” Liu Chen called for their attention and then pointed at Woldemar’s limp body. “There are some pretty good things in his Storage Bracelet. Should we… divide them among us?”

A look of astonishment spread across Ning Yuchen’s face. “Usually after the kill, the beast will eat its victim’s flesh and then take away the Storage Bracelet. Why did the rhinoceros leave empty-handed? Could it be a trap?”

“You mean that the rhinoceros left the Storage Bracelet behind as a bait?”

“Stop being so suspicious!” Chen Xiaobei strode toward the body. “If it wanted to, the rhinoceros would have killed us already. Why would it need to leave traps?”

“Zhufeng is right! Let’s go split our bounty!” Liu Chen skipped excitedly behind Chen Xiaobei.
