Xia Yang: I've Learned My Lesson, Please Spare Me

"Um?"

Everyone raised an eyebrow upon hearing his sudden remark.

Based on the map information of the Fate Witch Grand Church and the hierarchy within the Fate Witch Grand Church, those living in the central area held a higher status than those on the sides.

Undoubtedly, resources in the central location will be more abundant than those on the sides.

"He probably knew he wasn't strong enough to take over that area."

Xia Yunyi said casually.

Is it possible that there is treasure here?

Xia Yang narrowed his eyes and glanced behind him. "You know, there's an area right next to us shrouded in a witch array. The array is still intact, so there's definitely something good inside."

"Xiaoyang, there's no need to speculate."

The leading elder wizard shook his head and said to him, "Cao Fengqi's willingness to help us occupy the territory of Dragon Head Mountain is already a great thing for us; he has already done us a huge favor."

"Uncle Guo, he's willing to help us because he's afraid we'll take over his territory. I didn't speculate much; I was just curious."

Xia Yang answered, pursing his lips, his eyes flickering as he continued, "I'll go take a look."

"Xia Yang, don't be ridiculous. Since we've already agreed to his request, it would be impolite and offensive for you to go over there."

Xia Yunyi looked at him, her brows furrowing slightly. "Even if there are treasures here, are we going to try and snatch them from him?"

"Sister Yunyi, I won't steal his treasure..."

Xia Yang shook his head and said, "I'll just go take a look, I'll be right back."

As he spoke, ignoring everyone's attempts to stop him, he moved and vanished into thin air.

"That Xia Yang guy..."

Guo Qiang watched him disappear and shook his head helplessly. "He's probably still a bit resentful."

"This kid is a bit too competitive, but oh well, Xiaoyang knows his limits."

The elderly wizard at the head of the group frowned slightly, hesitated for a moment, and then did not continue to stop them.

Xia Yang's father is now one of the most powerful figures in the entire Spark Guild.

He also inherited his father's talent, possessing the mysterious assassin sequence and extraordinary strength.

He was defeated so easily today, and the one who defeated him was a boy even younger than him.

He was even told by the boy that he was the worst, so naturally he was a little unconvinced.

"Huh? What's going on? Why is there another guy heading this way?"

At that very moment, Cao Fengqi, who was heading towards the Gray Feather Moth Domain, saw a member of the Spark Guild turning back towards him based on the information from the Supplies Cheat, and frowned slightly.

"It's that young Shadow Erosion Shadowblade."

Based on the items on the person's person, he confirmed the person's identity.

"Why would an assassin skilled in Concealment suddenly return? Is he trying to probe my weaknesses, or testing me?"

Cao Fengqi frowned slightly.

Although the script didn't show a red alert for the arriving guy, his actions were somewhat offensive.

"Hmph, what a rude bunch."

He muttered to himself, and with a flick of his hand Black-Gold Bloodthirsty Gu appeared.

It leaped onto the ground and headed towards the young man.

When it was only 400 meters away from the youth, the Black-Gold Bloodthirsty Gu quietly Concealment in the place he was bound to pass through!

"If I hadn't fallen into an ambush, how could I have possibly lost to you?"

"Hmph, how dare they say I'm the worst!"

"..."

"That damn thing that crawled out from underground scared the hell out of me."

"And... that kid in that wheelchair is such a show-off. I'll suddenly appear behind him and give him a fright."

"Let these kids know I'm not someone to be trifled with."

Not far away, Xia Yang, completely Concealment in the darkness, gazed ahead with a flicker in his eyes.

"Traces of dust remain, shadows etched in the heart; veiled threads guide the way, shadows lock the form; entangled in dark webs, nowhere to end... Open!"

He murmured softly, and the extraordinary flames around him transformed into coded texts that entered his eyes.

Under his Dark Eyes, a trajectory appeared ahead.

"Around 1400 meters, haha."

Xia Yang looked over, chuckled softly, and silently and swiftly approached.

As a mysterious assassin, he is very confident in his Concealment and assassination skills.

Among those of the same level, unless it's a thick-skinned, defensive class like the Realm-Suppressing Shield Guardian, he's confident he can kill them with a single blow.

He was even more confident in this regard, especially since he relied on his battle Beast Shepherd.

However, after walking only 400 meters forward, a sudden feeling of palpitation welled up in his heart.

What's going on?

He felt a chill run down his spine and scanned his surroundings and the ground with extreme vigilance.

"Knock knock knock!"

But in the next instant, his heart began to pound violently without warning.

His breath hitched, and he was horrified to discover that the blood in his body seemed to be being frantically absorbed by an unknown and terrifying entity!

Xia Yang's scalp tingled instantly, his face turned deathly pale, and he withdrew from his Concealment state.

He sensed his entire body in terror, a dark, otherworldly fire burning within him, trying to drive away the unknown, terrifying presence.

But to his horror, he discovered it was all in vain; he didn't even know how he had been attacked.

"Oh no, could it be that unknown witch insect that attacked Sister Yunyi?"

His face changed drastically. Sensing the loss of his blood and the rapid decline in his physical condition, he could no longer contain his terror and pleaded with the person in front of him, "B-Big brother, I didn't mean any harm! I just came to ask if you're hungry? Want to have a meal together?"

"???"

"Really? I'm not hungry, but my battle pet is a little hungry."

More than 800 meters away, Cao Fengqi heard his words, the corners of his mouth slightly curled up, and he replied calmly.

"Big brother, it's hungry, I'll get it something to eat."

His expression changed, and he quickly shouted.

"No need to bother, it's eating."

"..."

"Big brother, when will it be full?"

"Waaaaah, it eats way too much!!"

"Big brother, could you please stop it from eating it?"

"..."

"Okay... anything else?"

"Without you, brother, please be careful while exploring here. I'm very worried about you."

"Thanks!"

"No need to thank me. I was immediately captivated by your charisma the moment I saw you, brother. This is nothing but my duty."

"..."

The two communicated from a distance until Xia Yang sensed the disappearance of the unknown, terrifying presence within his body. His body went limp, and he almost wet himself in fear.

His face was deathly pale, partly from fright, but more so from the feeling that he had lost at least half of the blood in his body.

If he hadn't also been a superhuman, he would probably be dead already.

"Damn it, how... how did that witch worm get into my body? How could it be so bizarre and terrifying?"

"And how exactly did he discover himself?"

He looked ahead with lingering fear and a hint of apprehension.

He thought his Concealment skills were strong enough, but he was discovered before he could even get within 800 meters.

No, it wasn't just 800 meters, I was spotted at least a kilometer away.

"Damn, does he have a way to detect Concealment skills? No wonder he said I was the worst."

Xia Yang's expression kept changing, and he staggered away, running back in a dejected manner.

That boy was too strange, and not only was he strange, but his battle pet was also strange and treacherous.

That's fucking terrifying!

He's already behaved!
