While Luo Xia was searching for Luo Feng and the others, Luo Feng and his group were fleeing for their lives under pursuit from the beast horde.

Fortunately, Luo Feng possessed Mental Strength. Under his leadership, Gao Feng and the others finally shook off the beast horde without any mishaps and made it onto the Heavenly Terrace of a residential area!

"Whew, we finally escaped with our lives!"

Zhang Ke let out a relieved shout, then collapsed onto the ground, gasping for breath.

In the Original Work, Zhang Ke had his entire right shoulder and arm blown off by the Tiger Fang Squad's Armor-Piercing Bullet. This time, however, because of Luo Xia's sudden outburst, no one in the team had been injured.

"Good thing we had Luo Feng. Otherwise, we'd all have ended up in those monsters' mouths!"

Captain Gao Feng said thankfully.

As soon as he said that, everyone else turned to look at Luo Feng. They had never known that Luo Feng and Luo Xia, those two biological brothers, were both Spiritual Psychics!

One had to know that Spiritual Psychics were as rare as pandas among Warriors!

Their team actually had two Spiritual Psychics!

It was simply astounding!

At that moment, Luo Feng was worried about Luo Xia and did not notice his teammates' gazes at all.

"I wonder how Xia is doing?"

He murmured softly.

Hearing this, Chen Gu stepped forward and patted Luo Feng on the shoulder, comforting him. "Don't worry. Luo Xia will definitely be fine! Didn't you see that he can fly? That beast horde can't threaten him!"

Wei Qing frowned. "I wonder who was trying to harm us. Luo Xia must have seen them, which is why he chased after them!"

"It seemed to be the Tiger Fang Squad," Captain Gao Feng said.

As the Warrior in the team whose Physical Quality had reached the Intermediate Warrior-General level, his eyesight was far better than the others'. When the gunshots rang out, he had vaguely caught sight of the Tiger Fang Squad's people!

"The Tiger Fang Squad?!"

The moment Gao Feng said that, everyone else gritted their teeth in fury.

Luo Feng could not help asking, "Captain, we shouldn't have offended them, right? Why were they trying to harm us?"

Wei Tie said, "Could it have been to steal our Double-Tailed Tigercat?"

Captain Gao Feng shook his head and said with a frown:

"Impossible! Didn't you see that they used gunfire to lure in a huge beast horde?

I'm guessing they wanted to do something but didn't want to alarm too many monsters, so they used us as bait to draw those monsters away for them!"

"Fuck them!"

After hearing Gao Feng's words, Zhang Ke started cursing loudly. "Are they even human? They actually made us serve as bait for monsters! Fuck their ancestors!"

"Eldest brother!"

At that moment, a voice suddenly rang out from high above. Everyone looked up to see Luo Xia flying in from the distance atop a Long Sword. In an instant, he landed beside them.

Various Backpacks and weapons from the Tiger Fang Squad descended along with Luo Xia.

"Xia, are you okay?!"

Luo Feng ran over, grabbed Luo Xia by the shoulders, and looked him over from head to toe as he asked anxiously.

Luo Xia smiled. "I'm fine... uh."

Before he could finish, an overwhelming wave of exhaustion suddenly swept over him.

In the final moments before he lost consciousness, he only vaguely heard his eldest brother Luo Feng's anxious, panicked shout.

"Xia!"

"..." Luo Xia fainted.

Luo Feng held Luo Xia in his arms, his face stricken. "Could Xia be injured?!"

Luo Feng's concern had thrown him into confusion, but Gao Feng and the others beside him could see clearly that Luo Xia was not injured at all. There were no wounds on him, and his complexion was rosy and healthy.

"Luo Feng, don't panic. Luo Xia should be fine. Look, there aren't any wounds on him, and his complexion is healthy and rosy."

Captain Gao Feng said.

Only then did Luo Feng notice that Luo Xia's breathing was steady and did not resemble that of someone injured. Suddenly, his expression froze—

In his perception, a massive amount of Mental Strength was pouring out from Luo Xia's head!

This Mental Strength was so immense that it gave him the illusion of facing a towering tsunami!

"What... is going on?"

At that moment, in a place none of Luo Feng's group could see—Luo Xia's Consciousness Sea was boiling!

Generally speaking, people's Mental Strength existed in a mist-like state.

For example, in Luo Feng's Consciousness Sea, aside from a Dark Golden Sphere, all of his other Mental Strength was in a mist-like state!

But Luo Xia's Mental Strength was somewhat different. Although there was also mist-like Mental Strength in his Consciousness Sea, the vast majority of it was liquid, boundless like an ocean!

Moreover, above that liquid Mental Strength was a Dazzling Gold sphere, like a sun!

This sphere was ten times larger than Luo Feng's Dark Golden Sphere. At that moment, it radiated dazzling Radiance as streams of pure, vast Mental Strength surged out from the Consciousness Sea and merged into Luo Xia's body, improving his Physical Quality!

Washed by immense amounts of Mental Strength, Luo Xia's Bones, internal organs, blood, Muscles, skin, even his cells and genes, were constantly changing and evolving!

His Physical Quality kept rising and soon reached the Intermediate Warrior-General level. Yet the increase did not stop. It continued without end...

Sensing the enormous Mental Strength pouring from Luo Xia's mind, Luo Feng was completely stunned.

Was this Xia's Mental Strength before it had fully awakened?

It was actually this immense!

"Luo Feng, what's wrong?"

Gao Feng asked.

They had all seen the Disbelieving Expression that had suddenly appeared on Luo Feng's face.

Holding Luo Xia, Luo Feng hesitated slightly before telling Gao Feng and the others, "Xia... is awakening his Mental Strength."

Luo Xia's current condition was exactly the same as when Luo Feng had suddenly fallen unconscious back then.

Luo Feng immediately understood that Xia's Mental Strength was about to fully awaken.

"Huh?"

Gao Feng and the others were stunned for a moment.

Chen Gu dug at his ear, wearing a Disbelieving Expression as he asked Luo Feng, "What did you say? Luo Xia is awakening his Mental Strength?"

Zhang Ke said blankly, "But isn't Luo Xia already a Spiritual Psychic? Why is he still awakening his Mental Strength?"

Just as Luo Feng was about to explain, Gao Feng spoke thoughtfully:

"I once heard someone say that they had seen records of certain people born with exceptionally powerful Mental Strength. Even before their Mental Strength awakened, some of it would leak out."

"Relying on that leaked Mental Strength, those people could use power just like Spiritual Psychics whose abilities had already awakened. And once they fully awakened, they would be stronger than ordinary Spiritual Psychics, even Genius-level ones!"

"However... such Spiritual Psychics are extremely rare. They may even be nothing more than legend. No one has ever seen one with their own eyes!"

As he spoke, Gao Feng looked at the unconscious Luo Xia in amazement. "Perhaps Luo Xia is that kind of Spiritual Psychic!"

Hearing this, the others all looked at Luo Xia in astonishment.

They had never expected that not only had two Spiritual Psychics joined their team.

One of them was actually a legendary Spiritual Psychic who surpassed even Geniuses!

"Captain, these Backpacks and weapons seem to belong to the Tiger Fang Squad."

At that moment, Wei Qing, who had been examining the Backpacks and weapons Luo Xia had brought back, suddenly spoke.

Chen Gu looked at the Backpacks and weapons on the ground and said uncertainly, "From the looks of it, the Tiger Fang Squad was probably wiped out by Luo Xia!"

"The Tiger Fang Squad had Four Generals and two Advanced Warriors... Were they all killed by Luo Xia?"

Wei Tie exclaimed.

Luo Xia's strength shocked them.

It also revealed just how terrifying Spiritual Psychics were.

That had been a Warrior squad with Four Generals!

Yet Luo Xia had wiped them all out by himself!

It was terrifying!

Zhang Ke, standing nearby, said bitterly, "They deserved it! They tried to harm us! Pah!"

Gao Feng went over to inspect the items. The Backpacks contained common wilderness tools and medicine. They were not particularly valuable to Warriors, but selling them would still bring in over a hundred thousand.

As for the weapons...

"These weapons all have sales records, and they're bound to their owners' Warrior identities. If we take them back and sell them, they may bring Luo Xia a lot of trouble. We should ask him how he wants to handle them after he wakes up."

Gao Feng said.

Unless they were traded on the Black Market, some valuable weapons would leave records whenever they were sold through legitimate channels, and they were bound to the Warriors themselves.

If Luo Xia and the others took the weapons back to sell to the Wuguan or the HR Alliance, it would be easy for Luo Xia's killing of the Tiger Fang Squad to be exposed.

Although no matter how one looked at it, Luo Xia and the others were in the right.

But a case involving human lives, especially Warriors, would always be troublesome.
