Not long after seeing a billowing black smoke in the sky, the assassins began to gather at the place of the person Chu Feng had just killed. Everyone here saw a half head that was still unburned and separated from his body.
“That burnt corpse is Wu Rong! Even he had died at the hands of Chu Feng?!”
“What? It was impossible that the newly burned corpse was Wu Rong! He had an early stage senior level cultivation base, there should be no way Chu Feng could kill him with such a fast time.”
“See his face carefully, even though half of his face has been burned but the next part is still intact!”
Some of the people who had arrived here said in astonishment after seeing the scene before all of them. Wu Rong's body had slightly melted to the ground due to the flames burning his body, whereas half of his face had melted due to the heat of the flames. It was a scary sight to see.
The surroundings became silent in the blink of an eye, no one could say anything after seeing the horror. At this time, the remaining assassins began to consider the pros and cons of the assassination mission they had received. Was the benefit extremely worthy of risking their lives for someone who could kill an early stage senior level cultivator easily. No matter how hard they thought, the only result was that it was simply not worth sacrificing their own lives just for a momentary gain.
“As expected of a hundred spirit mountain seed disciple, he is truly great at being able to kill a senior-level cultivator with just his junior-level base. It completely surpassed my understanding of the cultivation world, if such a character were to grow then the entire southern continent would be shaken in the future. I already have no intention of killing you anymore, therefore I am willing to retreat from this assassination mission!” An assassin hidden under a tree said straightforwardly after the silence around him. Without noticing the shocked gazes of the others, he turned around to leave.
To him, the mission this time was only to obtain a tempting reward. But if this murder had to risk his life then it was impossible to accept by him, because as an experienced assassin it was more important to own life than to kill a target.
The departure of the person is like an open door, at least they know that the one who gives up is not only himself but others. Because of that many hired assassins began to give up on this mission without feeling the slightest shame.
They had absolutely no hatred for Chu Feng, for them this killing was the sort of duty he received. Even if the task is declared a failure, it will not have much impact on the lives of all of them.
“Huh! A bunch of cowardly killers!” One of the 10-man leaders snorted coldly after seeing everyone leave. Although he was shocked by Chu Feng's strength, but he still believed in the powerful ace he had in his hand.
“We will continue to search for the traces of Chu Feng, at least when we return carrying Chu Feng's head then master Chu Shen will reward us all!” The leader said in a cold voice while encouraging the other 9 people.
In just a few minutes, the assassins gathered in this forest had fled. Other than the ten people earlier, there was only Yu Guang in this forest.
“Lungs have no sign of smoke sucking as their bodies burn. That meant that Wu Rong was not killed by the fire spell, but rather burned by Chu Feng after he died to destroy his corpse!” Yu Guang carefully inspected it while muttering softly.
“If that was the case, then what did Chu Feng want to hide from killing this corpse?” Yu Guang frowned while checking in detail. He was not like the previous ten people who moved without thinking, as he himself also felt surprised to see Chu Feng being able to kill someone who had the same cultivation base as his.
On the huge tree that was 1 kilometer away, Chu Feng looked at the entire scene with the ability of his eyes. Chu Feng's goal of scaring the assassins had been achieved successfully, he had deliberately allowed the black smoke to billow into the sky for the assassins to see the corpse quickly.
Chu Feng was not a person who forgot himself because of his strength, because he himself knew that the energy he possessed was extremely limited to slaughtering all the assassins present in this forest. Hence he frightened the psychologically of the assassins by showing him the speed and smoothness to kill a senior-level cultivator.
“Now there are only two groups who want to kill me, one is a team of ten junior-level cultivators and the other is the black-robed man. Those ten people should have something to rely on for not running away after seeing it, but I still have a way to defeat ten people. But the only thing that was difficult was the black-robed person, he seemed to be much smarter than I thought.” Chu Feng frowned after seeing the movement of the black-robed man. He thought that he had done perfectly in destroying the evidence, but he did not expect that there was someone who was great at forensic analysis of the human body in this cultivation world.
“If this black-robed man was in the modern world, maybe he would become a forensic expert in dealing with criminal cases!” Chu Feng shook his head as he walked towards the 10 people who were looking for him.
In the depths of the forest, ten people were moving cautiously. They had a distance of less than ten meters between each other, they did that in order to be able to search for Chu Feng quickly while supporting teammates in a short period of time.
However, they did not know that fifty meters behind the tenth person was being observed by Chu Feng.
The reason why Chu Feng had yet to attack him was because he planned to kill one of them then run away. He wanted to use a kill and run strategy to defeat the ten people in front of him, it was one of the strategies he often used in the game. But the reason was not only that, but to keep ten people away from the black-robed man.
In just a few moments Chu Feng instantly saw the flaws that existed in their formation in the tenth. It was a huge boulder that separated the tenth, this was Chu Feng's only chance to kill a single person.
