Chapter 508: Chapter 186: Using the old, weak, sick, and disabled as bait for the shadow giant beasts?! (6020 words)_3
Chen Fan spoke solemnly, “I’ll go and see what’s going on.”
Blackie said, “Aren’t we going to let Chu Xuan and the others come with us?”
Chen Fan shook his head, “Too many people will make things difficult. Besides, most of those people are at the Third Grade Boundary and above. It would be too dangerous for Chu Xuan and the others.”
Blackie nodded and, together with Little Qing and Elder Ape, went back the way they came.
Chen Fan put his Long Knife on his back and crouched down, like a ghost, quickly following.
After breaking through the Fourth Realm, even if he didn’t exert much effort, his speed was already much faster than before.
A few minutes later…
Chen Fan caught up with the group of people.
Among the bound group, two children, no more than seven or eight years old, seemed to be physically exhausted and collapsed on the ground.
A man and a woman, both Guardian Beastmasters, were whipping the two children on the ground fiercely.
Amidst heart-wrenching cries, the man and the woman burst into laughter.
Chen Fan picked up a leaf, poked a few holes in it, strung it up using a vine, making a mask and put it on his face.
Then, he removed the Long Knife from his back.
With his left hand holding the scabbard, Chen Fan’s eyes were cold as he walked out of the grove.
“Who’s there?”
One of the Guardian Beastmasters in the group noticed Chen Fan coming out of the woods.
The Guardian Beastmasters and their Guardian Beasts all turned to look at Chen Fan at once!
Chen Fan didn’t speak, just slowly stepped forward.
“Hiding your head but showing your tail…”
From atop the Level 13 Swamp Flying Snake, a man coldly said, “Kill him!”
A Guardian Beastmaster clad in armor led a Black Flame Rat, bigger than a regular ox, towards Chen Fan.
Chen Fan walked step by step towards the Black Flame Rat.
“Hiss!”
The Black Flame Rat, along with the Guardian Beastmaster on its back, charged directly at Chen Fan!
“Clang!”
Chen Fan’s Long Knife suddenly unsheathed, sweeping it down in one strike, cutting both the man and the Black Flame Rat in half instantly!
“Bold!”
“Seeking death!”
The group of Guardian Beastmasters were furious when they saw their companion killed!
Aside from the Level 13 Guardian Beast and a Level 12 one, the other Guardian Beasts and Guardian Beastmasters surrounded Chen Fan!
Many of the bound children fell to the ground with weak legs!
“Snap!”
Just as the group of people closed in and the Guardian Beasts were emitting radiant lights, ready to release their skills, Chen Fan suddenly vanished into thin air!
The next moment…
“Swish!”
Chen Fan appeared out of nowhere directly in front of the Level 13 Swamp Flying Snake!
The dazzling Thunderbolt Radiance of his sword’s blade slashed at the man on the Swamp Flying Snake!
“You’ve got some nerve!”
The man roared in anger, the spearlight in his hand flashed as he swung it like a rod towards Chen Fan’s Long Knife.
“Clang!”
The domineering sword light cut through the long spear and split both the man and the Swamp Flying Snake in half!
A Third-Grade Boundary early stage and a Level 13 Guardian Beast couldn’t even withstand a single strike from Chen Fan!
The other six people turned around, staring dumbfounded at their dead leader!
Suddenly, they screamed and scattered, trying to escape!
“Think you can get away?”
Chen Fan pushed off the ground, shooting out like a shell, launching a strike that swept out eight meters ahead of him!
“Boom!”
Blood burst out as the Guardian Beastmaster and the Guardian Beast’s body exploded!
Chen Fan’s figure flickered and quickly caught up with the remaining people, one knife after another, showing no mercy!
By the time he killed the fifth person, the last man had already fled more than a hundred meters!
But Chen Fan used two Thunder Flashes to catch up with him!
“No!”
The man, seeing that Chen Fan had caught up with him, collapsed in terror and knelt down on the ground, “Please, please, don’t kill me!”
“The people you tied up also begged you like this.” Chen Fan casually swung his Long Knife, cutting the Jungle Bear beside the man into two.
Seeing his own Guardian Beast killed, the man became even more frightened, trembling on the ground like a pendulum, wanting to run but not daring to!
Chen Fan squatted down and said indifferently, “Who are you? With a group of unawakened elderly and disabled, where do you want to go, and what do you want to do?”
“If you dare to lie to me, I’ll kill you; if I think you’re lying to me, I’ll kill you; if you’re hiding anything, I’ll kill you… You have to work very hard just to keep this little life.”
“Did you understand what I just said? If not, I’ll kill you right now.”
The man swallowed his saliva and said, “I… We’re from the Demon City’s Li Family. This time, we’ve kidnapped some unawakened people, trying to use them as bait to lure out the Shadow Giant Beasts in Flashing Firefly Swamp.”
“This has nothing to do with me. I’m just following orders…”
“It was Li Xinghe, the young master of the Li Family, who ordered us to do this!”
Shadow Giant Beasts in Flashing Firefly Swamp?
Chen Fan’s expression slightly changed.
Previously, the captured female Star Martial Artist from Nightmare Hall had mentioned that there was only one particularly threatening Shadow Giant Beast in Flashing Firefly Swamp.
What’s the difference between this so-called Li Family’s young master, Li Xinghe, who used living people as bait to lure out the Shadow Giant Beast, and those scumbags from Nightmare Hall?
Chen Fan stood up and said coldly, “Li Xinghe wants to catch the Shadow Giant Beast?”
The man kneeling on the ground nodded repeatedly, “The Shadow Giant Beast is an extremely rare monster, so Li Xinghe wants to catch it alive, wanting to tame the Shadow Giant Beast and make it contract with him!”
