The fire spread out in all directions with the speed of a prairie fire, burning everything in its path with extreme speed.
No. 38 explained to Su Luo: “We’ll wait here. I don’t believe that she would be able to continue hiding if she’s in there!”
Su Luo purposefully made a solemn expression and nodded, though happiness surged within her heart.
She had been afraid that she hadn’t covered her tracks well enough, leaving behind traces that would be found by No. 38. However, this turn of events was good. With the fire unleashed by No. 38, all of those traces would be burnt away, so she could now truly replace No. 39.
No. 38 wasn’t feeling as happy as Su Luo.
He had taken a military order from the captain and boasted about his capabilities just to have the chance to bring No. 39 to gain an accomplishment. However, as of now, he wasn’t even able to find a single trace of his target.
Looking at the grove that had been almost burnt to the ground, he did not see even the slightest trace of human activity in there.
No. 38’s expression grew uglier by the second.
Su Luo mumbled: “Could that lass be burnt to death?”
No. 38 shook his head, before nodding: “Let’s go!”
Su Luo was naturally happy to go with him, so she followed him, as the two flew towards their target location.
Soon, the two reached a narrow mountain valley.
The group of Thorns were camped at the front of the mountain valley, while the members of the Demon Clan were camped at the back. With one in the front and one in the rear, they locked down a hundred thousand mile stretch of mountain valley. With the interposing cliffs, it was hard to fly about, so Zhang Wang had been trapped within.
After knowing about this, Su Luo’s eyes sneakily flickered about, but only the heavens knew what was in her mind.
At this moment, No. 38 was leading Su Luo to report on the status of the mission to the squad leader.
After hearing No. 38’s report, the squad leader frowned before staring right into No. 38’s eyes: “Weren’t your eyes very good? And yet you saw wrong?”
No. 38 had nothing he could say, while snickers rang out from his compatriots in the vicinity. That was because No. 38 gave a military order contrary to the squad leader’s refusal, patting his chest and guaranteeing his success, which ended up gaining the squad leader’s approval.
“For the sake of turning this disgrace into merit, you, and you.” The squad leader pointed at No. 38 and No. 39, “You two will form a team with the Demon Clan to search the mountain valley.”
No. 38’s face turned black. He really wanted to reject the order!
Obviously, it wasn’t a good thing to be sent to search the mountain valley, as it was a dangerous yet unrewarding task.
On the contrary, Su Luo’s heart was filled with excitement: Senior brother Zhang Wang, here I come!
At this moment, Su Luo started to persuade No. 38: “Do you want to confront your challenges, or do you want to face the laughter from our brothers?”
Quite a jackpot she had struck. The squad leader shot a look at No. 39, as he finally got a trace of an impression towards him, who had been following inconspicuously behind No. 38 all this while.
That’s right, No. 38 thought. What’s the point of staying here? Might as well go out and search.
“Okay! I’ll do it!” No. 38 brought Su Luo, turned around and walked off.
The other people continued to stand guard along the perimeter of the mountain valley, with only Su Luo and No. 38 heading inside. The Demon Clan also sent two people out, one in the front and one in the back to conduct the search.
Su Luo was secretly feeling excited.
Good, very good. God knows how the two squad leaders came up with this divide and conquer strategy. Aren’t they giving Senior Brother Zhang Wang the chance to deal with them one by one? Su Luo was extremely happy with their strategy.
The mountain path was rough and treacherous, with overgrown plants and trees everywhere, streams gurgling as they flowed about.
As he walked along, No. 38 cursed out: “Dammit! Sending all of that exhausting work to us! While they continue to eat and drink merry, waiting for reinforcements!”
There are still reinforcements? Su Luo’s eyes twitched in response.
