Chapter 474: [369] Scavenge for Spoils of War! Forcibly Seize and Plunder! (4K for Monthly Tickets and Recommendations)_1
Kun Sheng flew backward, disbelief etched on his entire face.
He had…lost.
And this man known as the Demon King had only drawn his sword once.
“You—”
Just as Kun Sheng was about to say something, Pei Jinye had already appeared before him, snatching the Space Pendant from his hand and turning to leave.
The two followers Kun Sheng had brought with him changed their expressions, wanting to stop Pei Jinye.
“Fair’s fair, don’t spit in the face of charity,” Pei Jinye shot them a fierce glare, his daunting eyes causing both men to hesitate.
Pei Jinye didn’t pay any mind to what they were thinking—as long as they didn’t get in his way, he wouldn’t act against them.
Both men were fairly strong.
If a fight did break out, it would be troublesome indeed.
There were others lurking nearby; dragging things out would not benefit him. Thus, Pei Jinye left decisively.
“Young Master,” after Pei Jinye left, the two followers quickly went to Kun Sheng’s side, but as they reached out their hands, Kun Sheng angrily swatted them away, violently slamming the ground.
“Damn it!”
One of the followers quickly said in a low voice, “Young Master, no need to get angry. You merely expended a lot of physical strength earlier, which gave that kid from the Old Gods Association an opportunity! As for the Sealing Objects, let him have them. You’re destined to be a Swordsman for the Sword Pavilion; don’t let yourself become the laughing stock of others.”
“Who dares to laugh at me!”
Kun Sheng stood up, his Sword Qi shooting toward the surrounding forests. The bombardment sent many scattering in panic.
Kun Sheng, face dark with anger, gritted his teeth at his followers: “Do you think I’m mad about losing to that bastard?”
Under the followers’ uncertain gazes,
Kun Sheng hissed, “That guy took advantage of my distraction and swept away all of my Sealing Objects!”
The two followers were immediately shocked.
“All five Sealing Objects bestowed by the King are gone?”
Kun Sheng, touching his chest, grimly said, “Except for the Heart-protecting Mirror, all the others are gone. Hurry up and find him; damn it! How can that bastard be so shameless!”
The two followers were equally stunned.
“Wasn’t the New Godson of the Old Gods Association rumored to be ruthless and unfeeling? How can he… also be a scoundrel?”
Kun Sheng snapped irritably, “Cut the chatter and go find him!”
Several Judges in Mech Bodies from the Federation approached, exuding a formidable aura. As soon as they landed, they frightened the surrounding watchers into fleeing without looking back.
Above the crown stands justice! Beneath the blade lies judgement!
Even Wandering Spirits roaming the earth, upon encountering a group of Judges, would have no choice but to turn and flee.
The two followers, despite the pressure, managed to block them, facing them down with a cold gaze: “Sirs, whatever happened with our Young Master today was completely within the—”
“We’ve arrived a step too late. The Demon King of the Old Gods Association has already vanished.” The approaching group had no patience to listen to Kun Sheng’s followers; after using their instruments to scan the area, they turned to leave.
However, the leading Judge’s gaze fell on Kun Sheng.
“You’re trying to walk in that one’s footsteps? You can in a situation, but sadly, you’re only superficially similar. You’re lacking too much of the necessary foundation.”
After he finished speaking, the man turned and walked away.
The followers’ expressions changed.
Kun Sheng’s face turned ashen.
After the people from the Judgement Place had left, the two followers hurried to Kun Sheng’s side, “Young Master, please stay calm. The one just now was an Extraordinary Sixth Rank…”
“Go find that Soul Egg first, recover my Sealing Objects!” Kun Sheng said through gritted teeth.
“Yes!”
…
…
Lou Hai looked suspiciously at Pei Jinye.
He had even been ready to leave and call for support.
Yet in less than a minute, Pei Jinye had already grabbed him and left the forest.
From the beginning to the end, he never knew that he had just narrowly missed a powerful being from the Judgement Place.
“Demon King…”
“Don’t talk.”
Lou Hai immediately swallowed back his questions, casting a puzzled look, but the next second, Pei Jinye pressed his head down, taking cover.
Lou Hai didn’t dare to move.
After a few minutes,
Pei Jinye spoke in a low voice, “I’ll give you the coordinates; leave this place first.”
Lou Hai saw how serious Pei Jinye was and didn’t dare to ask any questions. After waiting for Pei Jinye to give the coordinates, he took Pei Jinye and directly entered it.
Noise erupted, and the dynamic music shocked Lou Hai’s ears, leaving him bewildered.
“Demon King, where are we…”
“Go find people. There’s a secret warehouse belonging to the Sand Flame Association here; empty it out.” Pei Jinye fearing his brother might mess up, repeated the instruction, “Don’t return to headquarters yet, wait for my message.”
“I understand, I understand,” Lou Hai nodded repeatedly.
The brothers will take action for a bountiful harvest.
If he was stupid enough to carry the goods straight back home, he might end up surrounded by those cunning women. Those women could be persuasive by any means, and he might return with nothing left to his name.
Lou Hai suddenly realized, “Where are you going?”
“To draw their fire for you.”
Pei Jinye was about to leave.
Lou Hai, visibly moved, spoke in a low voice, “You must be careful and not overdo it.”
“Mm, tell the brothers to take as much as they can, and fast. Time waits for no one!” Pei Jinye dropped these words and vanished into the shadows.
Lou Hai opened his mouth to say something but, remembering Pei Jinye’s words, didn’t dare delay any further. He left quietly and started to muster his troops.
…
…
Gu Haizun of the Sand Flame Association had not made an appearance.
But Pei Jinye knew that the man had intentionally used his three subordinates to probe him and, finding that he was unbeatable, immediately retreated.
“Being cowardly is one thing; being able to stay a coward is another.”
