Sou!
Not too long after the duo left the Duke of Liu Residence, a commotion could be heard from behind the walls. This sudden movement immediately attracted the attention of the two people.
"Gongzi, there's movement! That person has left the Duke of Liu Residence. "
The Eagle reported. As he spoke, The Eagle couldn't help but glance at Wang Chong in astonishment. He knew that Wang Chong was right.
"Not bad! His reaction is indeed fast to realize that something is amiss so quickly! "
Hearing those words, a hint of surprise flashed across Wang Chong's eyes.
He had just left the Duke of Liu Residence, but he had already left the area. There weren't many people who could match up to his sharpness.
"Let's go and take a look!"
Without any hesitation, Wang Chong beckoned The Eagle, and the two of them headed in the direction where the masked man had left.
...
Sou!
A cold gust of wind blew, and in the direction opposite of where Wang Chong and the others had entered the Duke of Liu Residence, there was a flash of light, and a masked man leaped out from behind the walls.
The masked man's hands were hidden within his sleeves, and he clenched them tightly. His face was pale, but he didn't say a single word. Only deep hatred could be seen in his eyes.
Without a doubt, his operation had failed.
Sou sou sou!
After leaving the Duke of Liu Residence, the black-clothed masked man swiftly dashed into the distance.
"Hmph! Brat, are you still thinking of leaving? "
A cold sneer sounded, and a light flashed in the forest. A figure suddenly appeared from the side, blocking the path of the masked man.
The masked man's face darkened, and just as he was about to turn around, another figure leaped out from the other side of the forest, blocking the masked man's path.
"Hmph! I already told you to stay behind, so where do you think you're going? "
That muscular figure walked out from the ambush, but he wasn't in a hurry to attack. Instead, he slowly surrounded the masked man to prevent him from escaping.
Even though the masked man was dressed in black and had a mask covering his face, the figures on both sides were sneering coldly, as if they had seen through his disguise.
"Hmph, aren't you going to speak? Do you think you can hide your identity by not speaking? "
The fierce-looking man in the lead laughed coldly and continued to press forward.
"Let me tell you, you might be able to hide your identity from others, but you won't be able to fool gongzi and the old master. Kid, from the very beginning, Master knew that you would come here sooner or later. "
Hearing this, a slight change finally appeared in the masked man's eyes, but there was even more extreme coldness and hatred.
"Hehe, if you were in the Kunwu Training Camp, we wouldn't be able to do anything to you. But it's a pity that you survivors refuse to give up and actually walk right into my trap! "
The burly man in the lead sneered.
"Buzz!"
Hearing the sturdy man's words, the masked man's complexion suddenly changed. His eyes were slightly red, and an extremely cold aura was released from his body. He was like the most ferocious beast, dangerous and terrifying.
In the beginning, the leader of the group was still calm and unruffled, looking down from above like a cat toying with a mouse. But under the pressure of the masked man, he felt as though he had swallowed a hundred flies, and he felt extremely uncomfortable.
"Brat, you still dare to look at me with such eyes? You really don't know what's good for you! Since that's the case, don't blame me for this. Brothers, come out! "
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, like some kind of signal, in an instant, the front, back, left, right of the black-clothed masked man … Like ghosts appearing out of thin air, they suddenly walked out of their hiding places with malicious intentions and surrounded the black-clothed masked man.
Screech!
Not far from the top of the forest, a clear and resonant cry came from a place not far above the forest. A cat-like adult eagle spread its iron wings and gently glided down from the sky.
"Right, I forgot to tell you. No matter which direction you flee in, you won't be able to escape. So, you should just give up. "
The leader of the group said coldly, as though he was looking at a prey trapped in a cage. He tore off a piece of jerky and tossed it over. The ferocious bird caught it, and with a sharp cry, it flapped its wings and quickly flew up, disappearing into the night sky.
Watching the giant eagle disappear into the night sky, the black-clothed masked man suddenly understood something, but his cold eyes did not show any expression.
Clang!
Slowly taking a few steps back, the masked man in black pulled out a sword with a clang, showing his attitude with his actions.
"You're courting death!"
The leader of the group flew into a rage. He waved his hand, and an expert with a majestic aura leaped out with a sneer.
"My lord, there's no need for so many people to deal with this brat! Just let me do it … "
Before he finished speaking, he swung his sword. Boom! A majestic gust of Stellar Energy erupted from his body like a raging torrent.
Sou!
But something shocking happened. Almost at the same moment that the expert made his move, the masked man suddenly leaped forward, charging toward the expert instead of retreating.
Boom! Right before everyone's eyes, a powerful surge of Stellar Energy suddenly burst forth from the masked man's body. Along with this surge of Stellar Energy was a dazzling black halo.
Boom boom! Dust and pebbles flew in all directions, and shockwaves of energy shot into the surroundings. As though two ferocious beasts, the two Stellar Energy surges collided with one another in midair, and a strong gale whipped up, causing the surrounding trees to rustle noisily.
"Ah! — — "
Before anyone could comprehend what was going on, a shrill scream of agony echoed in the air.
The battle outside the forest came to an end in a short moment.
The sword in the masked man's hand was knocked several zhang away. The expert from the Duke of Liu Residence had pierced his right chest, and the tip of the sword was protruding from his back.
On the other hand, the masked man's palms … pierced deeply into the chest of the expert from the Duke of Liu Residence.
His eyes were as cold as ever!
Deathly silence! The surroundings suddenly fell deathly silent!
The gleeful expression on everyone's faces vanished, and in that instant, everyone felt a bone-chilling chill.
For the first time, everyone felt a chilling power coming from this young man who had his head hidden and face masked with a black cloth and had not spoken a single word since the beginning.
No one had ever seen such a ferocious fighting style before. Even at the cost of severe injuries, he was determined to kill his opponent.
Even though the masked man was severely injured, everyone knew that he had lost. That was because he had paid the price with his life.
Puchi!
Outside the forest, the masked man calmly withdrew his hands, and the expert from the Duke of Liu Residence collapsed to the ground as though a wooden pillar with his eyes wide open. The black masked man's attack had not only pierced his chest with his hands, but it had also crushed his heart in his chest.
"Kill him!"
Seeing this scene, the burly man in the lead had a ferocious look on his face as he suddenly pounced forward to kill. This time, it wasn't just one person. Everyone made a move.
…
"Gongzi, hurry! Their battle is getting more and more intense!"
The Eagle said. Even though he couldn't see anything at all, he had many birds to relay news for him. Even though he wasn't present at the scene, he felt as though he was witnessing it with his own eyes.
"There are quite a few of them! Furthermore, they are moving swiftly toward the northwest! "
"The target is injured!"
"Another group of people is coming!"
…
Amidst the darkness, the Eagle led the way and reported the situation to Wang Chong. Honestly speaking, even though he had seen the Eagle train, he didn't understand a single word of the eagle's unique language. Occasionally, he would only see a small bird flying in front of him, jumping, chirping, circling, or flapping its wings.
In Wang Chong's eyes, these were ordinary movements of birds, but in the eyes of the Eagle, it was the rich language of birds.
It was through this language that Wang Chong and the Eagle were able to keep a clear target in their pursuit.
"Hm, there's another eagle."
The Eagle's footsteps suddenly paused.
"I was too careless. I didn't expect Duke of Liu to be prepared and even hide an eagle in his residence. Gongzi, you are probably right on this matter. This is indeed a trap. To think that Duke of Liu would know that someone would be coming! "
The Eagle sneered coldly. He was an eagle. He had spent his entire life interacting with all kinds of birds. Before doing anything, he would first sweep the skies to see if there were any 'eyes and ears' of others.
This was a common practice on the battlefield, but the Eagle still managed to do it.
Thus, the Eagle was certain that there wasn't such an eagle in the vicinity of the Duke of Liu Residence before this incident.
This eagle that suddenly appeared was from the Duke of Liu Residence.
— — To hide an eagle before the incident even happened, and then release it to chase after its prey … This matter was getting more and more bizarre.
The Eagle realized that this matter was completely different from what he had imagined.
"There's no need to hold him back. Kill that eagle."
Wang Chong understood the meaning behind the Eagle's words, and he said calmly.
If the other party had an eagle in the sky, that person wouldn't be able to escape. On top of that, the other party had an eagle, and that person would be exposed.
"… Also, send the signal."
Wang Chong said.
"Yes, gongzi."
Old Eagle chuckled, a delighted expression on his face. Reaching his right hand into his left sleeve, Old Eagle took out a miniature golden bird.
The bird's body was curled up, and its eyes were bright. The feathers on its body seemed as though they would shoot out at any moment. With a single look, it was clear that this wasn't an ordinary bird.
— — Wang Chong had been in contact with the Eagle for quite some time now, but he didn't know that the latter had such a bird on him. He felt that the Eagle had many secrets.
Yiiii!
The golden bird suddenly opened its beak and let out a cry. The sound it produced was so loud that it was completely disproportionate to its size. With a leap, it flew out from the Eagle's hand. Even Wang Chong didn't see how it disappeared.
