Big Black Bull looked around at his companions. Seeing them all glaring at him, he gave an awkward chuckle and guiltily turned his gaze away, finally settling on Huang Xiao. He found the lad rather agreeable, and his temper seemed decent too.
Just then, Huang Xiao and the old eunuch suddenly paled and turned to look ahead.
Big Black Bull happened to be watching Huang Xiao, so he naturally noticed the change in his expression. He followed Huang Xiao's gaze, and his bull-like eyes immediately widened. Growing excited, he bellowed, "Who are you calling a crow's mouth? I've called down a heaven-sent blessing today! What did I just say? I said Fan Zhongkun would show up right away, and here he is! Look! My chance has come!"
With that, Big Black Bull pointed in the direction Huang Xiao was looking, brimming with smug satisfaction.
The others looked where Big Black Bull was pointing. When they made out the figure hurtling toward them, and especially the black saber gleaming with a dark light in his hand, their eyes lit up. Quite a few roared, "That crow's mouth finally failed to bring bad luck for once! Haha, we really have run into Fan Zhongkun! Everyone, charge! Kill Fan Zhongkun first, then whoever gets Inugami will depend on their own ability!"
With that, they charged madly at Fan Zhongkun, no longer sparing a thought for their companions. Of course, their companions paid them no heed either. Each raced forward like a madman, hoping to reach Fan Zhongkun first and kill him so they could seize Inugami.
Although they already knew Fan Zhongkun possessed the strength of the Half-Step Martial Realm, they figured he had to be injured after being hunted down by so many experts. Besides, they were confident in their own strength.
