Gao Wu: I grow stronger with each death.

Chapter 40 The Hunt! The Hunt!

Lu Guan took out a piece of cloth and wiped the blood off the dagger:

"You probe for life, I lie in wait to assassinate; this combination never fails."

He smiled slightly, picked up the travel bag next to Wang Sheng, and emptied its contents.

That's right, Lu Guan also has superpowers.

He can reduce his own presence and even hide his killing intent. With this thunderous strike, Lu Guan once killed a martial artist at the high level of the Returning Strength Realm.

However, due to Lu Guan's low strength and potential, he, like the beast master, cannot be considered a first-level ability master.

There was no smile on the beast's face:

"Two people still followed us. We divided the things and left quickly. Just to be on the safe side, it's best if we split up."

"Okay, I understand. Since you know time is of the essence, why don't you hurry up and distribute the items?"

Splash, splash.

Lu Guan then emptied a backpack full of items.

Under the moonlight, both of their eyes seemed to be shining.

"Four vials of Level 3 Strengthening and Nourishing Elixir! Damn, this is a real steal!"

Keep in mind that each of these items starts at a price of three to four hundred thousand, and sometimes they can even be speculated to be worth five to six hundred thousand!

"There are still fifteen tubes of Level 2 Strengthening and Nourishing Liquid. Considering our years of cooperation, I'll take a loss. You take eight, and I'll take seven."

Lu Guan quickly and efficiently began distributing the tasks.

The beast looked at the miscellaneous items on the ground and fell into a state of confusion:

"Strange, these medicines seem to be the most valuable things he has; the rest are just junk."

As he spoke, he picked up a kitchen knife from the ground, his brows furrowing.

"The only valuable item is the mask; it's probably a low-quality source artifact. Strange, a rich young master traveling without any decent self-defense equipment—don't you find that suspicious?"

You see, he had just ordered Lu Guan to launch a sneak attack, because he was afraid that the kid might have something to save his life.

"Tch, who cares about all that? As long as I get the money, isn't that enough?"

Lu Guan picked up the mask dismissively:

"Do you want this broken mask? If you do, take it, but you have to give me a bottle of Level 2 Qi-Nourishing Liquid."

As he spoke, Lu Guan thrust his dagger toward the beast's neck.

brush--

As if he had anticipated this, the beastman dodged by flipping over.

He also drew his weapon and said coldly:

"I knew it. With so many treasures in front of you, you couldn't possibly resist. I knew you'd try to take them all for yourself."

Upon hearing this, Lu Guan also sneered:

"Likewise. You just suggested we split up, so you wanted me to stay behind and feed the werewolves, right? If I don't make my move now, who knows what you'll do to me later."

The beast was very calm at this moment:

"We know each other well, and the outcome of a fight would be unpredictable; there's no need for a death match. Besides, staying here for even a second longer is dangerous. I don't want the mask anymore; let's part ways here. As a sign of sincerity... you can go first."

"No, I haven't searched the kid yet. He might be hiding something valuable on his person."

Upon hearing this, the beast took a few steps back.

"Go ahead and search, but hurry, those two seem to be catching up quickly."

"You know how quick I am, don't you?"

After realizing each other's intentions, the two reached a temporary cooperation agreement once again.

Lu Guan crouched down, about to reach into Wang Sheng's chest, when he suddenly paused:

"No, if I get my hands on this kid's blood, the werewolf will most likely find me by the scent. Go touch him."

After saying that, he stood up again and took a few steps back.

Beastman frowned and said:

"You're the one who's going to search me. If you're afraid of death, why be greedy for money? If you don't do anything, I'm leaving. I don't believe you'd dare risk mutual destruction to stop me."

"Damn! I give up! Just wait, I'll search it myself!"

Lu Guan took out a flashlight from the scattered equipment, walked over to Wang Sheng, and shone it on him.

"what?"

Where is the blood on his chest?

Not only was there no blood on his chest, but the smell of blood in the air, which was only noticeable at the beginning, had long since disappeared.

next moment.

Wang Sheng suddenly opened his eyes and threw a punch!

Eight Desolate Fist!

This sudden outburst caught Lu Guan off guard, and he barely managed to block it with his arm!

"Bang!"

With flesh and bone colliding, Lu Guan was startled by the powerful, unexpected punch.

"High level copper bone?!"

No! This force didn't unleash such surging blood and qi. Even if a qi-concealing technique was used, it wouldn't be possible to hide it during an attack.

He's only at the initial stage of the Bronze Bone realm!

Before he could even marvel at how Wang Sheng had survived, Lu Guan roared at the terrified beast:

"He's not dead yet! Come help!"

The beast then came to its senses and immediately charged forward.

"brush!"

Seeing the beast slashing at Wang Sheng's shoulder with its blade, Wang Sheng neither dodged nor evaded, but instead threw a punch, intending to exchange injury for injury!

boom!

Beast was punched, while Wang Sheng was stabbed in the shoulder and his arm was almost broken.

"Hmph, to injure the enemy by a hundred while losing ten thousand of your own, how foolish."

Seeing this, Lu Guan sneered and was about to brandish his dagger.

Huh? Where's the dagger?

"Here you go!"

Wang Sheng suddenly shouted.

"puff!"

Suddenly, the dagger that had appeared out of nowhere was plunged directly into Lu Guan's abdomen!

"These little gadgets aren't very useful; a knife is much better."

At this moment, Wang Sheng suddenly found himself holding the beast's knife, and he assumed a fighting stance, immediately leading to a brief stalemate in the battle.

The beast was the least injured so far; a punch to its chest and abdomen made it cough up blood.

Secondly, Lu Guan was injured; the dagger didn't hit any vital organs, and emergency treatment was sufficient to stop the bleeding.

Wang Sheng looked the worst off; his left arm was almost only held together by skin, as the knife had cut the bone off at the root.

But at this moment, Wang Sheng showed no fear, no pain; his eyes only held an irrepressible excitement.

"Hahaha! I've been waiting for this moment for so long!"

I have no idea what those two are so cowardly about, taking their time to make a move. It's been such a long wait.

After all, if you don't kill me, and I make the first move, it would seem like I'm starting trouble, right?

Wang Sheng burst into wild laughter, as if he had gone mad.

Lu Guan frowned, wondering if this kid had lost his mind.

Suddenly, a loud shout came from the beast:

"not good!!!"

His tone had never sounded so urgent before:

"Werewolves! Werewolves are coming! Run!"

Lu Guan was shocked to hear this, but saw that the beast had already taken the lead and was flying swiftly toward a certain place.

"Grass!"

Lu Guan cursed loudly and was about to run away when he suddenly felt a pain in his abdomen!

In that case, he definitely couldn't outrun the beastmen, and the scent of blood on his body would make him a prime target for the werewolves.

Ruined!

But just as the thought crossed his mind...

"Bang!"

The beast that had just flown away landed on the grass with a thud, like a stone that had been thrown away.

"Can you leave now?"

Wang Sheng's voice rang out coldly.

His left arm hung limply, as if it were in the way, and with a swift motion, he cut off the last remaining piece of skin and flesh.

"None of you are allowed to leave; the hunt has only just begun."

Shouchong got up, exchanged a glance with Lu Guan, and the two instantly understood each other's thoughts.

"Five seconds!"

Lu Guan shouted.

"You and I need to take him down together in five seconds, then you're taking me with you!"
