Super Gene Hunting Ground-Chapter 1052 - 1046: Breaking Through the Forbidden Zone
Yang Xiao glanced at everyone and smiled slightly.
The hundreds of leaves floating in mid-air flew into the campfire at once, rushing up into flames with a whoosh.
Xiao Gang swallowed a mouthful of saliva,
"Yang Xiao, I didn't expect your spiritual power to be so strong, truly admirable!"
Xiao Gang, as Xiao He's guard, in the Empire Level Advanced realm, didn't think much of Yang Xiao at first, believing Yang Xiao was just flaunting with a Two-star Divine Weapon,
If it wasn't for his master Xiao He insisting on befriending Yang Xiao, he wouldn't bother with such a newcomer.
Over the past few days of team interactions, Yang Xiao, as the team leader, has been decisive and organized in command, leading everyone safely through, which owes much to Yang Xiao's organizational skills,
Now, Yang Xiao's display of powerful spiritual power shocked Xiao Gang again, forcing him to admire Yang Xiao inwardly.
Only the strong will admire the strong!
Yang Xiao smiled and said:
"It's nothing really, I just spend more time cultivating."
Everyone knew Yang Xiao was being humble; spiritual power requires absolute talent.
Xiao He glanced around the forest and asked quietly:
"Yang Xiao, how do you plan to deal with the people tracking us?"
Yang Xiao pondered for a moment and said:
"I always feel that these five people behind us aren't a cohesive unit; their actions are scattered and independent, without unified coordination, which confuses me about who their mastermind is and what their purpose is?
If I'm not mistaken, the night Fan Ni attacked us, they were already lurking nearby. If they were the same group, why didn't they act together?
If the three experts behind moved together the night Fan Ni tried to assassinate us, we might all be dead."
At this, Wang Qian shivered uncontrollably, not expecting to face an inexplicable assassination instead of a Demon Beast attack while with Yang Xiao's team, becoming an actual deadly group.
Wang Qian suddenly said:
"I have an idea,"
"Hmm?"
Everyone looked at Wang Qian.
"We could activate the rescue alarm function on the Jade Token, call for instructors, explain the situation, then return to the school."
Yang Xiao was stunned, looked at Wang Qian, hesitated a bit, and said:
"How about this, their attack targets aren't you, you can return to the base camp or split up and form another team for the hunting event."
Everyone was stunned, and the scene fell silent,
Wang Qian and the others glanced at each other, feeling hesitant.
Xiao He said faintly:
"Yang Xiao, you underestimate me! Rest assured, since I've teamed up with you, no matter the difficulties, Xiao Gang and I won't abandon you halfway. It's just a few assassins; if they want to kill you in my presence, they'll have to answer to my sword first."
Xiao Gang didn't speak; he was wholly obedient to Xiao He, following him wherever he went.
Gong Yu, indeed bold and robust, said:
"Yang Xiao, don't worry, I'm with you; as always, sharing blessings and facing hardships as one—life and death together!"
Having survived once, Gong Yu was accidentally Yang Xiao's Sword Blocker that night, still unaware of what happened.
Gong Yu's loyalty made Yang Xiao see him in a new light.
Wang Qian and Cui Yuan exchanged a glance, looking embarrassed.
Yang Xiao said:
"Wang Qian, Cui Yuan, don't feel bad now. In this situation, I can't guarantee we can definitely defeat them. If you wish to leave, I won't blame you,
However, you can find another reason; don't reveal our current predicament, as I want to uncover the mastermind and the truth."
Wang Qian looked embarrassed and said:
"Yang Xiao, don't misunderstand. Since everyone wants to stay, we are not cowards; I am willing to continue with you all."
Cui Yuan quickly added:
"I'm also willing to continue with you all."
Seeing everyone willing to unite and move forward as a team, Yang Xiao felt thrilled and said:
"Great, since everyone wants to continue, I'm also very happy. To ensure everyone's safety, I'll lend Gong Yu the Broken Rainbow Sword,
Gong Yu's Bamboo Leaf Sword Technique is decent. With this Broken Rainbow Sword, he can withstand an Empire Level Advanced realm expert."
Saying this, Yang Xiao took out the Broken Rainbow Sword from his Space Ring and handed it to Gong Yu.
Gong Yu was excited, trembling as he took the Broken Rainbow Sword, gently stroking the sheath, feeling the sword's Killing Aura.
Xiao He laughed and said:
"I remember Yang Xiao also has a Two-star Divine Weapon, right? Great! With three Two-star Divine Weapons, we surely won't fear the lurkers behind us, even facing a Super Demon Beast, there's nothing to be afraid of."
Actually, everyone knew Yang Xiao had two Two-star Divine Weapons, but they were too precious for anyone to ask Yang Xiao for them.
Now the problem seems solved; the Two-star Divine Weapon instantly strengthened the team's power, making everyone feel much more at ease.
"I plan to enter the restricted area 200 kilometers ahead, which might shake off those with lower Evolution Levels. All in all, during this period, everyone should be cautious, and if it's a matter of life and death, activate the Jade Token alarm."
Everyone nodded, expressing agreement.
In the next two days, Yang Xiao and the others followed the map, continuing deep into the Flying Leopard Mountain Range, along the way, slaying over a dozen Empire Middle Level Demon Beasts.
With Gong Yu having a Two-star Divine Weapon, the overall team strength improved considerably.
The two spies arranged by the Qin family finally stopped following Yang Xiao forward; they could no longer contend with the current environment, and last night, a five or six meters long caterpillar climbed on them stealthily from a tree, almost taking their lives.
Ultimately, they decided to quietly retreat.
The remaining three superpowers continued following Yang Xiao and the others. These three discovered each other but maintained some mutual understanding,
In an unclear enemy-friend situation, none of them would initiate an attack on Xiao He first to avoid being preyed upon afterwards,
They feared most dying in battle upfront and getting attacked unexpectedly.
"Yang Xiao, moving forward will lead us into the restricted area."
Xiao He and others stood atop a mountain peak, pointing at the endless Primitive Forest ahead.
Yang Xiao said:
"We now have three Two-star Divine Weapons, plus an Empire Level Advanced realm expert. Is there still pressure staying within 200 kilometers of the Flying Leopard Mountain Range?
Does the hunting competition still pose a challenge to us?
Shouldn't our life have a bit of pursuit?"
Xiao He: "..."
Xiao Gang: "..."
Gong Yu and others looked at Yang Xiao, bewildered.
Gong Yu said:
"Boss, can we not show off? Speak plainly."
Everyone laughed heartily.
Yang Xiao also laughed and said:
"Dean Xinghai set a prize for this hunting competition, right? A Two-star Divine Weapon, Dragon Slayer Sword, I want it."
Xiao He couldn't help but chuckle, amazed while looking at Yang Xiao,
"Yang Xiao, you already have two Two-star Divine Weapons, isn't that enough?"
"Two-star Divine Weapons aren't too many; if you have extra, can you give me one?"
Xiao He rolled his eyes at Yang Xiao and said:
"I only managed to get one with great difficulty; even Xiao Gang doesn't have one. Where would I get one for you?"
Gong Yu said:
"Boss, if we enter the restricted area, kill several Empire Level Advanced realm Demon Beasts, then that first place must be ours."
Wang Qian thought for a moment and said:
"Are we cheating?"
"Cheating?"
"Yeah, we have three Two-star Divine Weapons; you know what I mean."
Yang Xiao listened, first stunned, then chuckled and said:
"Dean Xinghai never said competing with Two-star Divine Weapons wasn't allowed; everyone's weapons differ, some strong, some weak. Where's absolute fairness? Can everyone use the same weapons?
Moreover, obtaining a Two-star Divine Weapon is an ability itself!"
Xiao He and others listened, laughed heartily, nodding in agreement.
"Let's rest on this mountain tonight and continue forward tomorrow morning to break through the restricted area."
