Chapter 113: 113
A group of boys continued to walk directly towards John, and based on their expressions, John knew that they were here specifically for him, and their intentions were not good either.
“Will you see this. Throughout this vast world, we somehow managed to meet each other. Looks like our destinies are intertwined,” exclaimed Jason as he stared directly at John with a big smile on his face.
Dylan and the others stood behind Jason, also with similar expressions on their faces.
“Something tells me that destiny has nothing to do with it,” John replied in a casual tone. Although his attitude seemed calm, he kept thinking of a solution to this crisis while keeping his energy ready to explode to the maximum if necessary.
“Haha, you are not as stupid as you see,” Jason replied as he took out an item and waved it over for John to see. John stared at the item, but did not recognize it at all.
“Haha, you don't even recognize the tracer artifact. You really are a rural hamlet,” Jason replied with a laugh.
“Tracking artifacts?” John asked, trying to buy some time while he thought of something to get out of this situation.
“It left a small spirit mark on your body, allowing us to track you,” Jason said. John's eyes suddenly sparkled in understanding.
‘So it was a strange feeling that I felt at the beginning of the pocket world as they went. Quickly.’
Jason noticed John's change in expression. “It looks like you managed to detect it when it was placed on you. It looks like you are really talented. But it's a pity that you villagers are so stupid. If you knew you were being tracked, you could have used your soul power to find the Spirit Mark and erased it. ”
The rest of the group laughs at John's lack of knowledge and misfortune. To them, he was a piece of meat on top of a cutting beam, and playing around with it first made it even more savory.
John sent out his soul force to scan his body carefully after he heard Jason's words. A minute later, he suddenly detected a very faint fluctuation attached to his body, so faint that it was almost invisible. His soul power flared to that point and washed it away, wiping it from his body.
‘No wonder I didn't detect it. Without knowing it was there, and without very close observation, I would never have realized it. ‘
John feels a little better now that his trail mark is not on him, but he is still trapped by a group of boys, there is no way to retreat. The gap behind him closed off all opportunities to run.
While thinking about the solution, John suddenly recalled some information from behind during the tournament. That, coupled with the way Jason constantly called him the villager ignited his suspicions even further.
“Formerly during the tournament, Dylan recognized the Supreme Combat Art, and I'm sure you did too. That coupled with how you called me .. You are not really from the Crimson Valley Sect, are you?”
All the boys around him were shocked to see John's words, which made him sure that he was right. Jason narrowed his eyes at John's words before he suddenly changed his tone and started laughing loudly.
“Hahaha, not a bad guess. Since you're about to die, I don't think it's wrong to tell you.”
Jason's words confirmed John's suspicions. One, that they were not from the Crimson Valley Sect, and that they were also here for his life.
“You're right. We are not from the Crimson Valley Sect. Instead, we are from the Holy Land of the Yuan Continent.”
John looked towards some of the boys he knew were from the Crimson Valley Sect and spoke in a loud mocking tone.
“I think you've come forward and sold yourself to the highest bidder. Dogs will always be dogs, I guess.”
“Consider death!” Shouted one of the boys.
“You've already made sure you're here for my life, why won't I prosecute a little more deaths in that case? At least I did not prostrate and lick the new master's shoes whenever I could,” John replied once again in a mocking tone.
The Crimson Valley Sect boys exploded in anger and prepared to charge forward, but were held back by Jason's hand wave.
John looked back at Jason. “Then I have only one question. Why is all this effort just to kill me? You only have three months to look for opportunities in this world. That should be more important than wasting time killing junior Mist Creation, right? “
John could not understand why they spent so much time and effort tracking him down, instead searching for treasure and opportunity.
“Unfortunately, this is the decision of the higher-ups. Your talent is not bad. And based on you somehow knowing the Supreme Battle Art, our sect decided that you should die. If you somehow become a member of the Supreme Battle Sect, it could cause problems for us in the future. Moreover, we have spent a lot of time looking for opportunities, and will spend even more after you die. It won't be long. “
Even though Jason and Dylan were unwilling to admit it, John's talent was obviously very frightening, and the elders in their sect wanted to eliminate him before he could potentially join any great power. Once he did, he would be well protected, and eliminating it would be much more difficult.
“Aren't you afraid that killing me will trigger the anger of my clan?” Ask John.
“Haha, your clan is just ruining the scene, waiting to be removed. Besides, how will people know that we're the ones who'll kill you. We can only pretend not to know.”
John's mind kept racing, and he wanted to keep buying time. He was about to ask which strength they came from which made them so confident in their schemes, but Jason understood John's intentions.
“You are just stalling for time, but unfortunately it won't save you,” Jason said in a cold tone as he pulled out his sword.
The explosion!
The ground exploded behind John as he dashed forward with all his might. The Supreme Battle Art and Five-Step Movement Technique were superimposed, making the burst of his speed frightening. As long as he reached the tree line, John was confident of his escape due to his dual Qi reserves and his fast movement speed.
However, as he dashed forward, an extremely sharp sword light pierced through his back. John was forced to turn around and block the attack.
The peng!
The attack was blocked with his scythe, but the time it took to turn around and fend off had allowed him to be completely surrounded by a group of five boys.
‘Three in the Qi Condensation Realm and two in the Fog Creation Realm are late. It's gonna be troublesome. ‘
