1518 Merciless Killing (1/2)
”What? Come here to die? Have you lost what little mind you have, you piece of shit?!!” Lu Gang spat. ”Let me tell you something. Seven out of eight of us here have reached demigod cultivation! Where did you get such confidence to think that you could beat us huh?”
”If you're not blind, you would have probably already noticed that I brought help with me too!” Chen Xiaobei shrugged.
All three Beast Kings straightened up, and glared at Lu Gang and his people.
”Help? Just three of them?” Lu Gang sniggered. ”Even though you've been careful enough to equip them all with Spiritual Instrument grade armor, isn't that like a clumsy denial? The way you've packaged them only reveals how weak they are!”
”Weak or not, you'll only know when we fight and not by talking nonsense!” Chen Xiaobei shrugged again. He had already used his Netherspirit Battlescouter to check his opponents' strength. Everything was under control.
”You conman!” Lu Gang did not have the Netherspirit Battlescouter, so he was unaware of how strong the Beast Kings were. ”If that woman who was with you is here right now, I might be a little worried. But.. oh! Unfortunately, that woman is all but dead!”
Chen Xiaobei's face darkened at the sound of that statement. Lu Gang was talking about Little Fox.
Her death was still like a fresh, open wound ripped in Chen Xiaobei's heart. That pain was almost unbearable. Whenever he thought of it, the grief and anguish it had caused gave Chen Xiaobei swathes of urges to smite every single member of the Lu family to avenge her!
This was especially true with Lu Gang!
When they first arrived in Atlantis, Chen Xiaobei would not have gotten involved with them if the father and son pair had not bullied them, and Little Fox would not have died protecting him!
”Why are you glaring at me? Oops! Did I poke your wound?” Lu Gang ignored Chen Xiaobei's sudden change in demeanor, and continued to mock, ”Thinking back, that woman really was just too stupid! She was so powerful... so young! She had such a bright future ahead of her. She could have dominated the whole Jianghu but she sacrificed her life for a... a puny weakling like you! If she knew that you would die pitifully in my hands today, do you think she will roll in her grave? Ouch! Hahaha!”
Lu Gang laughed loudly with his chin raised, watching Chen Xiaobei with arrogant disdain in his eyes as if Chen Xiaobei presented no threat to him at all!
Chen Xiaobei's jaws locked shut at this comment. His pupils darkened, and there was murderous anger in them.
That was it. Lu Gang's taunt had completely pushed Chen Xiaobei's limits.
Chen Xiaobei said but only one word, ”Kill!”
All three Demonic Beast Kings suddenly bounded like a flash of lightning heading for Lu Gang and his people.
”Hahaha… Ack! Hack! Hack! Hack!” Lu Gang was laughing so hard but when he saw the three beasts running towards them, he nearly choked to death on his own spit.
”Good heavens! The help that Chen Xiaobei brought with him looks so damn strong! Judging by their speed, it appears that they are all of demigod level!”
”Chen Xiaobei really does have quite a rich background doesn't he? He was actually able to invite three demigods to fight for him!”
”It looks like this is not going to be as easy as we thought!”
The elders exclaimed with a newfound terror, a nervous look now adorning each of their faces.
”What are you afraid of?” Lu Gang barked. ”Chen Xiaobei only brought three demigods! We have seven! When you fight them, it will be six vs three! How can you lose?”
Evidently, there were eight people on Lu Gang's side. Lu Gang and six other people among them were of demigod level.
The weakest among them was a middle-aged man carrying a hostage, who was only at the middle phase of Ethereal Cultivation.
The way Lu Gang saw it, both sides had demigods. Therefore, in a circumstance when both parties' shared the same level of strengths, the party with the greater number of people would surely have the upper hand! They clearly had the advantage in numbers.
He was sending out six demigod level elders – twice the number of helpers Chen Xiaobei employed. This was obviously more than enough to crush them completely.
