Chapter 412 - 412 Sneaking Away
412 Sneaking Away
Lin Xuan did not continue to attack. Although the eight-tailed beast had his eyes closed and was hugging his short sword, Lin Xuan was very sure that as long as he continued to attack the Wheel Crow King and the four-tailed beast, he would swing his sword at Lin Xuan. With his invincible earth-rank blade technique that was inclined towards killing, Lin Xuan would not be able to survive.
The weak would swing their fists at the weaker ones, and the strong would draw their blades at the stronger!
However, if he still dared to bare his teeth in a situation of certain death, then he was no longer an expert, but an id*ot!
Lin Xuan was not an idi*ot. He took a step back and coldly glanced at the eight-tailed beast, who was still resting with his eyes closed. He then looked at the Four Tailed Monkey in disdain. It was carrying the Wheel Crow King in its arms. Although it was weak, it did not show any fear in front of Lin Xuan. It grinned with coldness and killing intent as if mocking Lin Xuan’s incompetence.
Even though he didn’t want to fight it, and even looked down on the earth-rank that was defeated by a mystic-rank, his heart still rippled, and he couldn’t suppress his anger.
He knew what he could and could not do, and that made the situation more frustrating!
However, in order not to experience the feeling of death, Lin Xuan did not continue to attack. He used a secret technique and retreated quietly. He disappeared from the battlefield silently with the chaotic aura of countless ninjas and humans.
Four Tail Monkey tightly protected the unconscious Wheel Crow King in his arms. He was afraid that Lin Xuan would risk his life and kill both of them. It was fine if it could be resurrected after it died, but the Wheel Crow King could not be resurrected. If it died, it would really die!
After Lin Xuan retreated, the eight-tailed beast did not pay much attention to him anymore. That was because his opponent had already arrived. His opponent was a supreme blade tyrant, a peak earth-rank fighter of Taixia!
The terrifying blade light started to spread, and countless mystic-rank ability users started to retreat. Even a single blade light could cut their heads off.
Four Tail Monkey could not help but take a few steps back. However, its attention was always on its surroundings, wary of Lin Xuan jumping out at any time. They knew they were in danger the moment the eight-tailed beast was occupied.
However, after waiting for a long time, they still did not see Lin Xuan. Could he have been killed in the aftermath of an earth-rank fighter?
Naturally, Lin Xuan left. He activated his Dragon Breath and hid his figure along the way, escaping the battlefield directly. He did not want to be seen as a deserter. This was not an official declaration of war between Taixia and the tailed beasts. Although the battle was intense and many top-tier powerhouses had come, it was still a private battle that was not recognized by the Taixia officials.
Whether or not they wanted to participate depending on the individual’s consideration, so there was no such thing as deserters.
Of course, the cause of this battle was because of Lin Xuan. It was somewhat outrageous for him to escape at this time. However, it was not a big deal. After all, he had still completed his battle quota, which was to defeat the Four Tailed Monkey and Wheel Crow King. Four Tailed Monkey might still have the strength to fight, but Wheel Crow King was definitely not.
He hid his body and aura, and jogged all the way back to Muxia Village. He had agreed with his hunting team to meet at the Mission Hall of Muxia Village.
As soon as he entered, the Mission Hall was already filled with people. The news of the private group fight at the border of the Fire Country and the Rock Country had spread to Muxia Village. Although they had not officially entered a state of war, the relevant combat missions had begun to cover the entire mission panel.
The sudden war started by Lin Xuan broke the faint image of peace that lasted for about a month. Although the officials of Taixia Country had not issued an official war order, it was highly possible for it to develop into a second world war between the tailed beasts given the fact that it had entered a medium-high-intensity battle at the beginning.
Additionally, due to the appearance of a new dungeon, Taixia had to greatly improve its raiding progress. The raiding progress of the evil void soul world dungeon and the endless sea king world dungeon was relatively low and still in the development stage. Only the raiding progress of the nine beasts chaotic world instance dungeon could be accelerated.
The appearance of the human pillar was an accident, but it was also one of the triggers that accelerated the progress of the dungeon.
Lin Xuan had only heard about the human pillar research project when he arrived at Muxia’s Hall. He couldn’t help but raise his brows. He had never thought of this path before, but thinking about it carefully, it might be an important supplement to the Beastmaster path, or perhaps he could start a new career path for himself!
Taixia Country never lacked creative minds!
“How are the arrangements at the bone forest?”
Lin Xuan plopped down on a chair, picked up a glass of water, and gulped it down. It was ridiculous that a fight started because of him!
“The coordinates of the bone forest have been confirmed and a tunnel has been opened. According to our observations, the slug has not discovered our whereabouts. The high-purity sea salt has been transported over. We have also received a lot of ocean stones from the endless sea king world instance dungeon. We are currently processing them into powder, but because they are too hard, we still need some time.
“There’s also news from Long Didong and Miaomu Mountain that a slug’s child has appeared in the two holy lands. I’m not sure about the conversation between the two sides, but if I’m not mistaken, it should be a battle between the tailed beasts and Muxia.
“There are slug bodies found on other continents. There’s also one in Muxia village!”
Lin Xuan was stunned for a moment, then he helplessly smiled. He did not expect Muxia Village to have slug larvae.
Interesting!
“Very good, continue to investigate this matter. Also, set up a mobile Flying Thunder Gate at the place where you found the slug bodies. I need to reach their location in an instant.” Lin Xuan said indifferently. After he finished speaking, he leaned back and rested his body. He was preparing for the hunting battle that was to come.
Upon hearing Lin Xuan’s instructions, the team members responded and left immediately. Lin Xuan was a big financial backer, so they had to do their jobs well. This time, they had to make the black market team’s name known. This was a critical moment to improve their own level as well!
The afterglow of the setting sun remained in the entire village, dyeing the buildings of Muxia Village orange-red, giving it a sense of beauty. Lin Xuan squinted his eyes and enjoyed the peace and tranquility he had. It felt like the calm before the storm.
As time passed, the sun finally set below the horizon. Although the sun was not visible, there was still residual light in the sky. In the end, nothing was left.
The stars in the sky flickered, and the night crept its way!
