Chapter 468: Making Concession In Order to Gain an Advantage
Translator: Kazeyuki_ Editor: Jimmy_
As soon as Qin Wushuang saw General Manager Su’s stance, he knew that he would not leave the matter at that. However, his mental capacity had always been outstanding. Even if he was facing an elite warrior at the Transformation Void Martial Stage, he did not have any fear inwardly.
Traces of essence lights flashed in the eyes of Bao Bao and Lone. Clearly, they were prepared to make a move if things did not go according to their favor.
“General Manager Su, you have sharp eyes.” While Qin Wushuang spoke lightly, he was rather alert inwardly as he muttered to himself irresolutely, “Back then at the battle of the Duck Beak Mountain, you abandoned us freelance martial artists. I didn’t expect that you had escaped to this Orderly Mountain capital city. Could you be thinking that the Hundred Leaf Qin Clan does not already know about you, the fish that had escaped the net, and cast out an inescapable net to catch you?”
A trace of mocking appeared on the corner of General Manager Su’s mouth. Yet, he spoke with neither a angry nor light tone: “I feel rather strange that the three of you brothers had lived up to this point. Could you three help me to resolve the confusion in my heart?”
Lone swore: “Su, don’t try to be shameless. Get lost if you know what’s going on. In the future, none of us will know each other. If you don’t know your situation, we will inform your whereabouts to the world. I believe that in less than a month, the hunting team of the Hundred Leaf Qin Clan would have their eyes on you.”
When General Manager Su heard these words, he laughed. Yet, he did not expose them. Instead, in a flash, General Manager Su held his branding blue and white long sword in his hand.
The brilliance of this sword was like the resplendent water. Despite not revealing his murderous intention as he held this in his hand, Qin Wushuang and his friends did not dare to neglect it. Lone gave a roar: “I will move first!”
He stepped forward and flicked his sleeve to initiate an explosive punch.
This punch did not have any flourishes. However, the fist had instantly evoked a wave of distorted divine aura that spread through the air. As the divine aura spread along the wind, it formed into numerous illusory fists that smashed towards General Manager Su in the head.
Bao Bao also gave a loud roar and waved the giant stick in his hand to attack from the side. When he swung his giant stick, flying sand and rolling pebbles along with the miserable cry of the wind incessantly fell upon the ear.
Qin Wushuang did not stop either. He pointed the Hegemon Breaking Formation Spear and shot forward at a rapid speed.
The saying of ‘deliberate in counsel, prompt in action’ could be seen in such nimble and sturdy skills. Qin Wushuang’s spear attack had come from the inner essence of his mind as it did not showcase any extra motions.
It was the first move of his own self-created spear moves—The Awakening!
Naturally, this spear had demonstrated completely different power when Qin Wushuang had unleashed it. The entire Hegemon Breaking Formation Spear had arrived in gigantic swallowing motion like a roaring enraged black dragon as he twisted this spear.
General Manager Su was also stunned. He had made a lot of mental preparation before coming here as he knew that if the Wu siblings were Qin Wushuang’s group in disguise, they had to be powerful.
However, despite making mental preparation, under the combined attack from the three people, General Manager Su did not feel that sense of superiority in having a higher stage.
Almost in the time between breaths, three waves of attacks with mutual understanding had pushed him to the danger zone.
“Bastard…Indeed they had hidden their power!” General Manager Su was extremely furious inwardly. He stepped backwards continuously as he could not dash forward to face these three attacks.
As he retreated, suddenly, Qin Wushuang swung his arm. Next, a yellow light flashed as if a transparent yellow cloth had covered their bodies.
Immediately after, the rolling yellow light had carried the three bodies of Qin Wushuang away completely. This power had seemed to come from a giant hand from nowhere that had removed them from the original place.
General Manager Su stood firmly on his heels while a surprised look flashed across his eyes. Next, he initiated the blue long sword in his hand to smash down both horizontally and vertically.
One after another, these sword lights had matchless sharpness.
The entire ground had been completely flipped over as if a bullock had plowed the land. Everywhere was a mess.
From the skies, Dong Xiong also rushed down.
“Senior Su, how did they escape?”
General Manager Su had an ashen expression as he fixed his gaze at the surrounding ground. Then, he swore: “That guy was full of evil schemes. He must have realized that I had come with a helper. Thus, he only attacked once and initiated his talisman to escape. This was an earth evasive talisman that would allow them to penetrate deeply into the ley-line, much better than an ordinary earth talisman. Or else, they would not have been able to escape this fast!”
Dong Xiong also had an unsightly expression: “Then what should we do? We couldn’t have come here for nothing?”
“Don’t worry, such evasive techniques that penetrated deeply into the ley lines favors the depth, yet their distance would not be far. At most, they would be within a thousand miles.”
“Within a thousand miles?” Dong Xiong was excited, “If it’s within a thousand miles, with our spiritual perception’s range at the Transformation Void Martial Stage, there is hope of locking onto them!”
General Manager Su nodded: “Rest assured, they can’t have run too far.”
General Manager Su had performed “Pupil Attachment Skill” On Qin Wushuang and his friends. This technique had three days of efficacy. Unless they had escaped out of the range of General Manager Su’s spiritual perception, he would use this miraculous technique to lock onto Qin Wushuang’s whereabouts.
Dong Xiong was overjoyed: “Hurry up.”
However, General Manager Su said: “No rush. This skill has many taboos and a lot of inconveniences. We must make sure there are no super elite warriors around this area. Or else, if my spiritual perception offended those super elite warriors during the random search, it will bring us unnecessary troubles.”
Dong Xiong nodded as he knew that General Manage Su’s words were reasonable.
“Ok, then you take it one step at a time. Avoid any if you sense those with powerful spiritual defense layers. Those three guys would not have stronger spiritual perception than you, right?”
…
The talisman performed by Qin Wushuang was indeed an evasive talisman that used the earth attribute. It was a strategy he had formulated as soon as General Manager Su had appeared.
With Qin Wushuang’s understanding about General Manager Su, he had a personality as cunning as a sly fox. Per his personality, he would never come to look for them by himself when his injuries had just healed. This would not match with his personality.
If he had dared to make the move when he was alone, he would have already done it at that inn of the capital city. Why would he wait now?
This proved that for sure, General Manager Su was accompanied by a comrade. The reason for his comrade not appearing and to remain concealed in the darkness was because he had to be waiting for an opportunity to launch a sneak attack.
Of course, Qin Wushuang would not give the other party the chance to attack them from two sides. Thus, under the situation when they had gained the upper hand in one attack, he had left by initiating the earth evasive talisman.
With a flash of yellow light, Qin Wushuang and his two friends reappeared among the underbrush in a remote mountain hill. Bao Bao straightened up and looked around. Yet, he raised his head and saw a tall mountain standing before them.
“Boss, what kind of demonic place did we arrive at?”
Qin Wushuang had been consistently researching the map after he had entered the Xuan Yuan Mound. He already gained a substantial knowledge regarding the geological region of the Xuan Yuan Mound. After he looked around for a moment, he said: “If I’ve guessed correctly, this should be the Divine Finger Mountain.”
“Look, doesn’t these five continuous mountain peaks look like the five fingers of a hand?” Qin Wushuang looked from afar and inwardly, he was also deeply moved by the magical nature.
“It does look like it.” Bao Bao also felt breathless as he looked at it closely.
Yet, Lone had lowered his head and seemed to be unhappy.
“Second, what’s wrong with you?” Bao Bao asked curiously.
Lone twitched his mouth: “Boss, I say, aren’t we too conservative? Although that Su is powerful, at the Transformation Void Martial Stage, we were not in an unfavorable situation back then. Why did we leave in a rush? If we are scared to fight with those more powerful than us, how could we keep moving forward?”
In fact, Bao Bao also felt doubt in his mind. Because of his intelligence, he did not speak it out loud. Instead, he had discussed the terrain deliberately with Qin Wushuang.
Hearing Lone speaking, he kept shooting glances at Lone. Yet, Lone had turned his face sideways and showed a depressed and a wronged expression.
Naturally, Qin Wushuang knew that this Purple Flame Electric Beast was a combat fanatic. It’s certain that he would feel unsatisfied when he was taken away from the battle by force.
“Second, if you want to fight, there will be opportunities. Qin Wushuang said lightly, “The battle with General Manager Su will happen. However, it’s not the time and certainly not in that location.”
“Then at what time, and what location?” Lone could not help but ask.
“Perhaps we cannot set the time, but we must set the location!” Qin Wushuang’s tone was determined.
Seeing Qin Wushuang speaking with seriousness, Bao Bao knew that the matter was not as simple as they had imagined. He asked with curiosity: ‘Boss, what profound knowledge is in here?”
“You two, think about it. Since this battle is unavoidable, why would I waste that precious earth evasive talisman?”
“That’s right, Boss. Thanks for you initiating the earth evasive talisman. If it were a normal earth talisman, it will not have allowed us to escape the pursuit from elite warriors at the Transformation Stage.” Bao Bao said.
“I did it to buy more time for us and to find us a more advantageous environment for us to fight!” Qin Wushuang said with a severe tone, “With General Manager Su’s distrustful personality, he would never have the guts to chase after us by himself. If I’ve guessed correctly, he must had comrades in the skies!”
“And this friends must have shared a life and death relationship with him! His strength must be on par with him!”
Bao Bao and Lone was stunned and showed a face full of astonishment.
“Think about it, if we were to fall into a situation of being attacked from both sides. With two elite warriors at the Transformation Stage cornering us from two sides, how much of a chance at victory would we have?”
“This…” Bao Bao withdrew a breath of cold air as he did not dare to keep thinking as he stammered, “Unless boss had the time to initiate the Graceful Spiritual Bow, or else…”
“We would not have the slightest hope…” At this moment, Lone had to admit this point.
“Boss, that General Manager Su is suspecting your identity!” Suddenly, Bao Bao realized the light and said at the same time, “This way, we will keep having troubles.”
Lone was rather optimistic as he laughed drily: “The more troubles we have, the more delightful it will be. I would like to see how many people would come not fearing their own death!”
Qin Wushuang had shaken his head: “Perhaps, that General Manager Su had guessed the identity. However, with his selfish personality, he would not share this news with others. Or else, he would have sold this news to the Lord of the Floating Snow House!”
“What is this Su planning to do?” Lone swore.
“I am afraid that his target is not the rewards, but us!” Qin Wushuang said coldly.
