After knowing the reason, Lin Zhan and his team members were filled with righteous indignation.
They had killed the young man in the Dark Mist Forest because he wanted to snatch their spoils of battle. If not, they wouldn’t have killed him for no reason.
The family head of the Yao family was an unreasonable person too. He killed so many unrelated martial warriors without caring for right or wrong.
This was the martial warriors’ world, and it was the survival of the fittest. But, every debt had its creditor. His way of doing things made them furious.
“How strong is the Yao family?” Wang Teng continued asking.
“The strongest person in the Yao family should be the family head. He’s at the 6-star soldier level. As for the rest, they have revealed 4 5-star soldier-level martial warriors and around eight to nine 4-star soldier-level martial warriors.”
Wang Teng and his teammates’ expressions turned serious when they heard this.
This Yao family was a gigantic family.
They couldn’t afford to provoke them!
Lin Zhan and the others were furious, but they could only control themselves.
“Since the Yao family is so strong, why do they still need people like you to act?” Wang Teng frowned and asked.
“Hmph, for the sake of their family’s reputation. This isn’t something glamorous, and it won’t sound nice if other people heard of it. Although many people know what kind of person the family head is, they still maintain a good relationship with him on the surface before they officially shed their pretenses.
“Also, this is something that can be done with the money. This small amount is nothing to the Yao family, and they don’t have to worry about their family members getting hurt or killed.”
Wang Teng was enlightened. He turned to Lin Zhan and his teammates and asked, “Alright, I am done. Leader, do you have anything to ask?”
The others shook their heads. They were a little surprised by how experienced Wang Teng sounded. He had asked everything they wanted to know.
“I will hand this person over to y’all then.” Wang Teng smiled and moved away.
Liu Yan asked, “What shall we do with him?”
“Kill him. They are not good people,” Yan Jinming said.
“Wait, you said that if I reply to your questions, you will let me go.” The man was flabbergasted. He shouted at Wang Teng.
“I’m letting you go, but they don’t want to. I can’t do anything about that,” Wang Teng said helplessly.
“You’re… shameless!” The man was so angry he wanted to vomit blood. He glared at Wang Teng.
“Shameless is my middle name.” Wang Teng sniggered.
The man still wanted to say something, but Yan Jinming had already acted. His neck was twisted and broke before he could resist.
Lin Zhan crushed the throat of the 3-star soldier-level martial warrior in his hands. The martial warrior died immediately.
At first, he wanted to leave someone alive so that they could ask him for more information. He didn’t expect Wang Teng to catch a timid one. They didn’t even need to threaten him. He instantly spilled the beans.
After that, Lin Zhan asked everyone to clear up the battlefield. They searched the corpses and destroyed all traces…
They were all very familiar with this whole process.
Wang Teng secretly collected the attribute bubbles that the martial warriors had dropped.
Earth Force*9
Wood Force*8
Metal Force*12
Fire Force*10
Water Force*6
…
They were all Force attributes. There weren’t any scripture or talents.
Wang Teng highly suspected that he was getting more and more unlucky recently. He was supposed to be the son of lady luck. What happened to him?
Half an hour later, Lin Zhan and the others finished their business too.
They found more than 300 energy stones from their attackers and some rune weapons. This was a small fortune.
They split the energy stones evenly and kept the rune weapons. They would sell these weapons after they returned and divide the money earned.
Speaking about this, Wang Teng had already collected a few hundred energy stones. He just didn’t have the time to use them.
However, Lin Zhan and his team members weren’t too happy. Instead, they were all heavy-hearted. After all, it was a huge pressure to have such a formidable Yao family as their enemy.
“Actually, there’s no need to worry too much. The Yao family doesn’t have evidence to prove that we did it. They won’t find us for now.
“Also, based on what the man said, the Yao family won’t act rashly since they care about their reputation.
“Now, we are in the dark and they are in the light. We just need to raise our ability secretly. Leader, when you reach 5-star or 6-star soldier level, they won’t dare to touch us easily,” Wang Teng consoled them.
“It sounds easy, but our leader spent many years before he became a 4-star soldier-level martial warrior. Advancing to 5-star and 6-star will be even harder. We don’t know how long that will take,” Yan Jinming said dejectedly.
“What are you afraid of? Mind you, I think that we should find the Yao family directly and attack them while they least expect it. Killing one is a gain, and killing two is a bonus. To hell with the Yao family. Do they think that we can be bullied easily… Tsk, I feel angry just thinking about it,” Liu Yan said.
Wang Teng couldn’t help but give this lady a thumbs up.
Impressive!
“Alright, don’t look as if we are going to die immediately. Although the Yao family is strong, they won’t dare to come to Yong City to cause trouble. As long as we are not too far away, there won’t be a problem.
“If the Yao family dares to kill randomly, the mighty warriors of Earth will teach him a lesson. It doesn’t matter if he is a 6-star soldier-level martial warrior or a 9-star soldier-level martial warrior.
“Taking many steps back, we can just hide on Earth and not come to the Xingwu Continent. He won’t be able to do anything to us,” Lin Zhan smiled and said.
“Hiding on Earth is a good idea. Leader, you’re really sly,” Wang Teng complimented.
…Lin Zhan was speechless. He smiled and scolded Wang Teng, “Go away. How can you say that the martial warriors’ way of staying alive is sly?”
Liu Yan and the others burst out laughing too. After this change of topic, they felt much better. They were all martial warriors, so they were prepared to die. They were not really afraid, but they had just lost some confidence.
They didn’t plan to change their schedule. They continued driving to Red Leaves Hill.
Along the way, they met some lone dogs and wolves wandering in the wilderness. Most of these star beasts weren’t very powerful. They scattered when they saw their team and didn’t dare to get close to the huge vehicle.
Of course, some weren’t afraid of death.
They met a pack of 2-star jackals. These star beasts normally hunted in packs, and they were ferocious and vicious. They chased the heavy armor vehicle and pounced on it. Wang Teng and the others had no choice but to take care of them.
Lin Zhan drove the car with one hand and held his giant ax with another. He slammed his ax on a jackal that pounced towards him, swatting it like a fly.
The jackal only had the time to groan once before its bones shattered, and it fell off the car. It died.
Liu Yan had found a new hobby—shooting competitions with Wang Teng.
“Just now, you were ahead of me by one person. This time, let’s see who can kill more jackals.” As she spoke, she raised her gun and started shooting. The massive force of the bullet caused a jackal to fly back.
Wang Teng didn’t know what to say. He pulled the trigger and fired three shots at the leader of the pack.
The three rune bullets drew three white lines in the air. They shot towards the vital spots of the jackal in three different directions. There was only a slight difference in their angle.
The jackal sensed danger and howled. It evaded to the side.
The jackal’s speed and agility were outstanding. Even if the bullets were traveling at a fast speed, it was still able to dodge in time.
