Chapter 267: Bad Luck!
"Hey look, the bears stopped fighting."
"Hmm, they're looking in this direction?"
"F*ck! Does it mean we're going to fight?"
"Hey, they're really looking this way, right?"
Some people began to feel panic as they felt that the bear was looking at them. In truth, the two bears were looking at the figure who were crouching down near the Rainbow Petal Yang Flower.
Swish!
The root was safely uprooted. Lin Xiao was happy but he didn't have much time to be happy when he sensed pressure coming at his back. His face changed and he kept the Rainbow Petal Yang Flower in his Spatial Ring.
Moon Evasion!
Using Moon Evasion to the very limit, Lin Xiao reappeared on the other side of the hill. His back was drenched with sweat as he rushed to the top. It was only a hundred meters away from the top and by the time he reached up, he saw the sound of roaring from one side.
"Ah, they're coming here!"
"WHAAAAAAaaa!"
"Beast Rank 5!"
"Damn it!"
Beast rank 5 was equivalent to Golden Core Stage 2 and majority of the people there were only at Foundation Establishment. It was clear that they were not a match of the two beasts!
"Run!"
"Damn it! I'm only here for the free money and not to throw my life away!" another cultivator screamed and ran away in the other direction. It was clear that he wanted to run away from the assignment.
The others were also having bad expression on their faces.
Why would two Beast Rank 5 suddenly attack them.
"Lin Xiao!" Princess Lan Yi Hua spotted Lin Xiao and hurriedly called him. She pulled his hands. "Hurry up, there's a beast rank 5! We need to get into formation to help."
"Alright."
Lin Xiao acted as if he had just heard about it and rushed over. Internally, he was relieved because this was already the second time he tried to pull this stunt: having other people clean up for his mess.
Of course, he himself was not confident of fighting against those two beasts, so he had to rely on others here.
Princess Lan Yi Hua furrowed her brows. "Normally, we won't be able to defeat Beast Rank 5 but if everyone worked together, it should be possible."
When they reached the others, Prince Lin San arched his eyebrows. He naturally noticed that Lin Xiao was coming from the wrong direction. He was supposed to be coming from the opposite direction.
As he linked it with the appearance of the two Beast Rank 5… Prince Lin San felt that there would never be any peace to travel with Lin Xiao.
"Stay near me." Prince Lin Yan naturally didn't think much of those two beasts. The two of them had just reached Golden Core Stage 2 not long ago and naturally didn't have that much ability.
For a cultivator at Golden Core Stage 2 like him, they really didn't worth much.
But for Lin Xiao and the others, those beasts were naturally not their opponents that they could defeat so easily. Prince Lin Yan wanted to train them but naturally he would not give them assignment that was over their heads.
"OK!"
"Got it!"
"What the hell, we're attracting the attention of Beast Rank 5?" Wei Mu didn't look flabbergasted or anything. He was still walking leisurely while his fur robe fluttered along with his steps.
There was clear contempt in his eyes when he looked at the two beasts and also the formation that was formed by Lin Xiao and many other Foundation Establishment cultivators.
"Move aside, you're not going to be a match against that beast."
"Tsk, what a bother."
"We're going to act so soon?"
Four people walked to the front, bypassing the circling formation that the Foundation Establishment Cultivators have made. One of them was Wei Mu. The second one was a skinny young man who was dressed in plain robe. The third one was a young man who was wearing hood and covered his entire face. The fourth one was a young girl.
They were all look fairly young, around 18 to 20 years old. However, the moment they stepped forward, there was faint aura of authority that was brewing from their body.
"They're…"
"Golden Core Stage 1." Prince Lin San naturally activated his Eyes of Truth. It was capable to see the real rank of these four almost instantly.
"Why do they even join the task?" Lin Xiao was stunned.
Prince Lin San pursed his lips. "Same with us."
Same with us?
Oh…
Lin Xiao smiled bitterly. The best way for them to head over to other kingdoms was through missions. Because if not, they would need the necessary paperwork that was required for them to even enter a place.
Not to mention, there might be other restriction.
"Watch carefully," Prince Lin Yan's voice came from above them. His eyes were looking at the four people in front of him. Even though he was more powerful than them, he had no intention to step forward.
"Yes?"
"Their fight will give you insight of how Golden Core Stage Cultivators fight."
"Yes!" Lin Xiao turned his attention to the four of them as his eyes heated up in excitement. He wanted to know how Golden Core Stage Cultivator fight too! The fights he had seen from Prince Lin Yan… was an overkill.
Wei Mu glanced at the other three and his lips curled up to form a smile. "Oh, there are others too. Mind if I take care of one?"
"Don't be arrogant," the skinny youth looked at Wei Mu. He stretched his hand as a fan appeared on the edge of his hand. "You won't be able to defeat one by yourself."
