Wang Jinyang and Lu Hao lay prone on a nearby slope, waiting for Qin Fengqing to lure the demonic beasts over and throw the village into chaos. Then they would concentrate their attacks on the mid-stage Rank 4 Earth Cave martial artist first.
Rumble, rumble, rumble!
A swirling cloud of sand rolled toward them from the distance, accompanied by faint tremors in the ground.
"Lu Hao, Wang, the beasts are coming! Get ready!" shouted Qin Fengqing, who was running ahead of the pack.
"Holy crap, how did Qin Fengqing pull that off? He actually got the whole pack chasing him!"
Lu Hao was astonished to see even immature beasts among the pursuers.
"Who knows? But this works in our favor. With the whole pack coming, the Rank 5 will consider them beneath him, but the Rank 4 will definitely intervene. We just need to handle the Rank 4. As soon as he comes out, we strike."
Wang Jinyang kept his eyes fixed on the village, ready to move at any moment.
"Kagu kakaxi!"
"Gukala kaka!"
As the beasts charged in, the Earth Cave villagers reacted, shouting warnings to the others while mounting a defense.
Then an Earth Cave martial artist emerged from the center of the village, reached the entrance in an instant, and began attacking the charging beasts.
Lu Hao immediately recognized him as the mid-stage Rank 4 who had fought Qin Fengqing three days earlier. Things were going just as they had expected. Faced with these low-level beasts, the Rank 5 Earth Cave fighter had no intention of taking action himself.
"Go! Attack!" Wang Jinyang barked, then charged forward.
Lu Hao was no slower and immediately followed.
The slope where they had set up their ambush was only a little over a hundred meters from the village
