BATTLE THROUGH THE HEAVEN
ASSASSIN CHASE

The tranquility of the Magical Beast Mountain Range was plagued by a sudden pursuit. Numerous loud screams and sounds of pursuit echoed throughout the quiet mountains.

Due to the size of the group involved in the chase, even the mercenaries hunting for Magical Beasts stopped their footsteps and stared at the large group rushing past them.

Out of curiosity, some mercenaries joined the large group and started running. They wanted to see who could pull that large-scale attack.

"Catch Xiao Yan. That person had a Xuan-class Qi Method with him! "

During the chase, Mu She opened her mouth and shouted after realizing that there were many mercenaries standing at the side observing.

After hearing the shouts of their Company Leader, the Wolf Head Mercenary Company at the back also intelligently began to repeat the words of their leader. Instantly, the cry of Xiao Yan who had the Xuan Tier Qi Method spread throughout the entire mountain range.

As soon as the words of ‘Qi’ Tier Xuan Method entered their ears, almost all of the mercenaries stopped their work and exchanged greedy looks with each other.

After a short silence, one was finally unable to resist the temptation of the Xuan Level Qi Method. He picked up his weapon and started chasing after the disappearing shadows and appeared at a considerable distance away.

With someone taking the lead, the surrounding hesitant mercenaries also accelerated their pace and shouted as they joined the pursuing troops.

The cries from behind him also entered Xiao Yan's ears. After a quick glance at the increasingly large chase party, the color of his face changed as he softly cursed, "Baseless ferocious bastard."

Xiao Yan fled through the dense forest with quick steps as he looked at his surroundings. After which, he dashed towards the area with the appearance of the Magic Beast the most often.

"Come to me. I want to see if there are more of you or more Magical Beasts in the Magical Beast Mountain Range. " Laughing, Xiao Yan once again lowered his head and charged forward.

"Bad kid. Let's see how you'll escape today. " From behind Xiao Yan, the cold voice of Mu She accompanied by Dou Qi was like the roar of a lion that resounded throughout the dense forest.

Xiao Yan ignored this meaningless threat and instead just focused on rushing forward.

Seeing how Xiao Yan ignored his shout, the corner of Mu She's mouth twitched. His shrinking eyes were focused on the figure in front which slowly increased his superiority and frowned. Xiao Yan's speed indeed exceeded his expectations.

Mu She slowly released her breath and shook her body. A faint green Dou Qi quickly covered his entire body. A soft deep voice quivered from his throat, "Huang Dou Technique: ‘Steps Wind Soaring’!"

Following Mu She's voice, a large amount of green Dou Qi suddenly flowed from her feet and wisps of wind formed under her two feet.

As his feet stomped on the ground, Mu She's body suddenly shot forward. His speed was more than twice that of before.

Goddamnit! The sound of a broken wind emanating from behind him caused Xiao Yan to hurriedly turn his head. He could not help but be surprised when he saw Mu She furiously speeding towards him. Lifting his finger, Xiao Yan pulled the ‘Energy’ Recovery Pill into his palm which he quickly swallowed. The Dou Qi in his body that had been depleted was gradually recovering.

"I will definitely kill you today!" Seeing the distance between him and Xiao Yan narrowed, an evil killing intent appeared on Mu She's face as she said thickly.

"Kill your mother, you big-headed ghost." Xiao Yan turned around and scolded before waving his right hand back. A ferocious and formless power gushed out from his hands.

"Hm!" The power might be formless but Mu He could feel the wind pressure caused by it. Without delay, he coldly snorted and threw a powerful punch forward. Immediately, a ferocious power appeared in front of him and exploded forward. Finally, it crashed into a formless force.

"Bang!"

The destruction of the two intense forces directly shaved off the layers from the surface of the forest grass. Some weak tree trunks were also broken.

"You do have power, no wonder you're so negligent." Mu She's eyes were filled with shock after their first exchange. He laughed coldly before violently descending from the ground once more and shooting his body forward for over ten meters.

Boy, this is the end! After several steps repeatedly, Mu She got closer to Xiao Yan. He laughed loudly when he saw the young man running with all his might.

"End your mother ..." Xiao Yan's mouth was filled with vulgar words, angering Mu She to the point that the latter's face changed color.

Tilting his head, Xiao Yan glanced at the dark-faced Mu She who was chasing after him. Not far behind him was a crowd of mercenaries chasing after him.

Sighing helplessly, Xiao Yan tightly pressed his lips together and with two hands, removed the Heavy Xuan Ruler from his back. His footsteps became heavier as he pulled the ruler from his back, flicked his wrist and stored it into the storage ring.

"You can slowly chase after me. I'm not going to play with you! " After turning around and mocking coldly, Xiao Yan forcefully stepped on the ground. His speed suddenly soared. With her green striped clothes, she quickly turned into a green shadow, escaping into a dense forest that was dark like a green leopard.

Mu She's face changed when she saw Xiao Yan's speed suddenly increase. Instantly, he found the situation somewhat unbelievable. Even with his strength of a two-star Dou Shi and his agility Dou Technique, he was still unable to catch up with just a Dou Zhe. It was a big blow for him.

Raising his head and watching Xiao Yan disappear into the dense forest, Mu She's leg speed once again increased significantly as she charged into the dark and cold forest.

Just as he entered the forest, a force that carried a strong wind shot towards him. The color of Mu She's face is sinking. He took out a sword from his waist, letting his Dou Qi agglomerate before furiously slashing his front.

"Swash ..." The sound of the sharp tip cutting through the flesh was very pressing and ear-piercing.

"Squeak!" A shrill voice came out as the sword Mu She made contact with was a rank one Magical Beast, the Bloodthirsty Rat.

Mu She expressionlessly flicked the Bloodthirsty Rat from her sword as she looked at the shadow from a considerable distance ahead that was running within the dense forest. He moved his legs and was about to catch up when the ten plus Bloodthirsty Rats pounced on him.

Being stopped by this Bloodthirsty Rat that was slightly smaller than half the size of a human caused Mu She's face to become terrifying. These things may not be able to hurt him, but it can slow his pursuit.

As Mu She felt a headache, a large crowd of mercenaries behind her caught up. When they saw that their Company Leader was blocked by a group of Bloodthirsty Rats, they immediately retracted their weapons and intercepted the group of ten plus Bloodthirsty Rats.

"Pursue!" After kicking the Bloodthirsty Rat that pounced on him, Mu She waved her hand and coldly ordered.

Following Mu She's orders, the relentless pursuit began once again.

Under the act of escaping and chasing, the peaceful mountains turned into a mess. As the source of all this, Xiao Yan shamelessly dragged the mountain inhabitants into it. Therefore, the mercenaries who were chasing behind him not only failed to injure Xiao Yan but also sustained many injuries caused by the attacks of various Magic Beasts.

After the chase had lasted for most of the afternoon, there were finally some mercenaries who could no longer resist this aimless pursuit and started to exit the crowd. As more mercenaries came out, the chasing crowd began to shrink. In the end, there was only the Wolf Head Mercenary Company and a few mercenaries who were overwhelmed by the desire for the Xuan Qi Method and continued to endure the chase.

After stepping with a pair of somewhat numb legs as he ran some distance away, Xiao Yan lifted his head and stared at the unstable crescent moon in the sky. He could not help but laugh bitterly. The perseverance of the people behind him exceeded his expectations.

"It looks like we entered a region within the Magical Beast Mountain Range. This scoundrel. Wasn't he afraid of meeting a high-level Magical Beast? " Turning his head sadly, Xiao Yan turned his head and glanced at Mu She's dense face. He pulled the tip of his lips and cursed, "Crazy person."

Mu She's eyes were fixated on the black figure that appeared and disappeared in front of her. Anxiety appeared in his heart. If they continued to chase, they would enter the region within the Magical Beast Mountain Range. When the time came, that person could randomly pick a direction and hide but they would not be able to do it with that many people.

As his heart hesitated whether he should retreat, Mu She suddenly realized that the shadow walking in front of him had suddenly come to a halt. He was stunned for a moment before an uncontrollable happiness appeared on his face. His feet stepped and his body jumped forward.

As he approached the figure, Mu She realized that the close range was a ravine that was tens of meters wide. Beyond that was the inner region of the Magical Beast Mountain Range.

"Death Abyss ha ha, Xiao Yan, the chase is over!"

Mu She said cynically as she gradually stopped not far from Xiao Yan. He waved his hand and the people behind him quickly formed a semicircle, surrounding Xiao Yan.

Facing the ravine with a monstrous color on his face, Xiao Yan could only smile bitterly and shake his head. There were only two paths to the region within the Magical Beast Mountain Range. In addition to these two paths, other places were surrounded by a bottomless pit. He didn't expect that his random escape would end with him stuck here.

"Xiao Yan, hand over what you have obtained from the cave!" Mu He stepped forward and coldly said.

"Should I really give it to you?" Xiao Yan's gaze swept over the independent mercenary before suddenly smiling at Mu She.

After hearing Xiao Yan's words, the expressions of the surrounding mercenaries became unnatural. Many of them were independent mercenaries who had spent a lot of effort to catch up. They did not want all the profits to be given to the Wolf Head Mercenary Company.

Mu She stared coldly at Xiao Yan, clearly understanding Xiao Yan's intention to fight them against each other. He swept his gaze around him and said, "Everything, Xiao Yan has killed dozens of people belonging to the Wolf Head Mercenary Company. Even He Meng had died in his hands as well. This blood value was something he would pay for with his life. As for the thing he obtained from the mountain cave, at first it was something my son found. Today, we just take back what belongs to us. I'm hoping none of you will stand in our way. When everything is in order, I will give you a nice gift. "

When Mu She's words came out of her mouth, everyone understood her intentions. Obviously he intends to bag everything …

Mu She swept her sharp gaze across the independent mercenaries. He waved his hand and the members of the Wolf Head Mercenary Company quickly took out weapons from their waists. After which, they coldly stared at the independent mercenaries who were still thinking, their killing intent was clear.

With the Wolf Head Mercenary Company outnumbering them, these independent mercenaries, regardless of how disinclined they felt, could only retreat reluctantly.

After scaring off these independent mercenaries, Mu She finally turned her cold gaze back to Xiao Yan. He tightened his grip on the sword in his hand and slowly walked towards Xiao Yan, whose back was facing the abyss.

"If you give up everything now, I'll let you die a painless death!"

Observing Mu She's sinister face, Xiao Yan simply shrugged and sighed. He flicked his palm, causing a huge black-colored heavy ruler to appear in his hand. He raised his palm and propped it up with his shoulder. He then raised his head slightly, showing a faint smile.

"If you have the guts, come and get it!"
