Chapter 122: Killing Like Grass, No Sound to be Heard!

Meng Chaoran was in so much pain he wished he were dead. Being with that idiot Tan Tan made even a sage like him turn into a villain! When I was separated from my partner back then, it was far better than this... Damn it!

What sin have I committed to take on such a disciple...

The usually gentle and calm Meng Chaoran was filled with a belly full of wicked fire, and there was nowhere for it to go...

...

"The Xuanbing layer is just ahead." Meng Chaoran said weakly, "If this doesn't work, I have no other choice, just go ahead and heat up."

He then suddenly stiffened his face: "Be careful, the people chasing us haven't moved in these past few days. They must know we are coming here; there is definitely an ambush ahead! You better stay alert!"

"How do they know?" Tan Tan asked in confusion.

"Idiot! Are you a pig?" Meng Chaoran shouted angrily. "You've been steaming with heat all this way, and they’ve seen it! Besides the Xuanbing layer, where else can you eliminate this temperature? Do you really want to be that stupid?"

Chu Yang had already heard Tan Tan's voice from a distance, and he immediately realized... the people from the Dark Demon Clan were actually targeting his master and junior brother!

I haven't even settled the score with the Mo Qingwu incident, and now they want to deal with my master and junior brother?

Chu Yang's heart was ablaze with fury!

Looking at their ambush position, Chu Yang secretly counted; just on this side, there should be nearly twenty people! With their strength, there was no hope for the three of them to win!

In fact, if they fell into an encirclement, even the hope of escaping would be slim!

After all, none of the Dark Demon Clan members sent here were weaklings!

This was a matter that would affect the development and future of the Dark Demon Clan for decades to come, how could they be careless?

Therefore, Chu Yang felt that he couldn't act rashly. If he made a mistake, all three of them would perish here.

Chu Yang's eyes turned, and he quietly submerged into the ice layer.

He appeared and disappeared silently, not a single person from the Dark Demon Clan detected him.

Everyone's attention was drawn forward, focused on the two figures approaching them.

The ninth level spirit beast core! It's on those two!

The anger of the Dark Demon Clan's experts reached its peak after this chase; they were nearly going mad!

It was just two little throne experts! It was already quite generous for the Dark Demon Clan to send five people; but these two slippery little loaches were incredibly cunning and vigilant, simply infuriating!

After countless pursuits and traps, they had managed to escape time and again, as if they could foretell the future.

Eventually, the Dark Demon Clan sent out forty experts, yet they still couldn't do anything about them! This was simply unbelievable.

Fortunately, they later noticed a phenomenon that calmed their minds: one of the two must have a high fever or been poisoned by fire.

Wherever they had passed, there would be traces of water.

And the direction they were heading was towards the Xuanbing layer... Hmm, they must want to use the Xuanbing to resolve it.

So the people from the Dark Demon Clan simply set up an ambush here. Waiting for labor while being idle was the way to go. But why were they poisoned by fire in this cold weather of the Extreme North Wilderness... everyone was puzzled.

Each member of the Dark Demon Clan gritted their teeth in determination: as long as we catch those two, I will...

I will make them suffer! If they die too easily, it wouldn't be fair for all the fatigue and frustration I've endured these past few days...

A Dark Demon expert at the back widened his eyes, staring at the two figures slowly moving towards them, his fingers nearly digging into the ice beneath him.

Hurry up!

But it was killing me!

Everyone was anxious, yet no one dared to act recklessly: there had been several times at this distance, but as soon as someone moved, those two immediately fled.
