The Attack Of The Wastrel Chapter 427

Qin Xinran did not even have the chance to throw back at him what he told her earlier when Nie Sang disappeared. Looking at the other side, the two of them were nibbling on their snacks slowly and love seemed to be floating in the air. Impatiently, Qin Xinran found a clean place to lay her blanket and sat down.

In the dark night, a shadow made use of the dark to hide. Using their sense which was as acute as a cat, the shadow neared without making a sound.

Having finished the snacks, Xin Yi got rid of the table between him and Tianfeng Jin and smoothly went to sit by her side. They started chatting. Majority of the time, it was Xin Yi talking and Tianfeng Jin would occasionally respond with a few words. However, even with this, Xin Yi was extremely satisfied.

When dealing with someone so cold like Tianfeng Jin, he had to have unwavering perseverance. He was already happy to have made some progress.

Initially, Qin Xinran was still observing their development curiously. However, as she saw that it was basically only Xin Yi that was making the move and Tianfeng Jin was just being polite, she started to find it boring as she yawned. She then took out another blanket from her Storage Ring and fell asleep under a big tree.

Tianfeng Jin chuckled as she shook her head. Looking at the sky, she said softly, “It is already so late but Lingzhi and the rest have yet to return. Do you think something has happened?”

“Most likely not.” Xin Yi frowned, “It is so barren around here and there won't be many powerful beasts. With their strength, nothing should happen to them. From what I see, I think the two of them like the scenery and went to find a place to do what couples do. I think Nie Sang is just thinking of the worst scenario and believed that they met with trouble.”

“You may be right.” Tianfeng Jin laughed, “It won't be the first time that the two of them do something like this.”

The two of them then exchanged glances and laughed. Under the s.h.i.+ning moon and stars, a thick aura of love surrounded the two of them.

The cat-like shadow unhappily looked away from the two of them, striking them out of the danger zone. The shadow did not think that the two of them would notice him in their current mood. Nimbly, the shadow hopped and moved behind the tree Qin Xinran was sleeping at. Tilting his head downwards, he looked at the peaceful look Qin Xinran had when she was sleeping. His left hand reached to his waist and he took out something resembling a string. Bending down, he took one last look at the two people who were still enjoying themselves and pounced at Qin Xinran's waist.

Swis.h.!.+

The change happened here.

Hunting Cat looked as he saw his whip hit something before it could hit Qin Xinran. At the same time, Qin Xinran, who he had thought was deep in sleep, immediately pounced up from the blanket. The thing that had blocked his whip had appeared from the blanket that was covering Qin Xinran.

“Long time no see, Hunting Cat.” Qin Xinran laughed as she dashed towards him. Keeping her blanket, the thing below was completely exposed to Hunting Cat.

It was ten Blood-sucking Vines! This was bad!

Hunting Cat immediately jumped out of the attacking range of the Blood-sucking Vines. He did not want to lose his spiritual energy at a time like this.

“Tsk, just a little.” Gu Lingzhi complained as she walked out from where she was hiding.

If Hunting Cat had reacted a few seconds slower, she would have been able to control the Blood-sucking Vines to trap him.

Rong Yuan's voice appeared from behind her, “Don't worry, even without the Blood-sucking Vines, I will be able to catch him.”

His body was extremely agile as he charged towards Hunting Cat and started to fight.

“Sneaky.” Nie Sang scolded as he appeared from the other side.

In the Realm of the G.o.ds, Hunting Cat was a famous middle-cla.s.s True G.o.d. Just off the number of wanted criminals that he had caught, one could gauge how powerful he was.

When they had rescued Qin Xinran, they had done an a.s.sessment of Hunting Cat and they all thought that he would make a good training partner. They made the decision that if they were to come across him in the future, they would definitely exchange a few blows to see the difference between themselves and the True G.o.ds from the Realm of the G.o.ds. Who knew that Rong Yuan would be so sneaky and go ahead before anyone else had time to react?

“Did you all already know that the person following us was him?”

“Not really.” Gu Lingzhi chuckled, “We merely made a guess.”

It was only when Hunting Cat took action on Qin Xinran did they confirm his ident.i.ty.

As they were joking, the fight sounded like it was reaching the end.

It is no wonder that Hunting Cat was famous, Rong Yuan did not seem to have any advantage over him and both of them had sustained slight injuries from their fight. Knowing that it would be impossible to take Qin Xinran away today, Hunting Cat made a sudden move, trying to retreat.

Unfortunately, before he could go very far, he was blocked by a sword. Tianfeng Jin snorted as she held onto her sword, “Since you are already here, you should not leave.”

Immediately, her sword started to slash the air and Hunting Cat looked slightly tired as he dodged her attack. Behind him, Rong Yuan started to attack him and he had no choice but to change his escape route. Unfortunately, he b.u.mped into Gu Lingzhi.

“You can't escape.” Gu Lingzhi declared.

When Rong Yuan was fighting with him, everyone else had gotten into position to prevent Hunting Cat from escaping. Guarding all directions, Hunting Cat was not going to escape unless a miracle happened.

“All of you…” Hunting Cat squinted at Gu Lingzhi, “All of you are not from the Realm of the G.o.ds!”

“Why not?” Nie Sang brandished his sword and smiled with intention, “Shouldn't anyone who stays in the Realm of the G.o.ds be citizens?”

Hearing what Nie Sang said, Hunting Cat who was initially only eighty percent sure was now hundred percent sure. “You are all Ascension Members from the Tianyuan Continent!”

As he confirmed this, his guarded look became a look of animosity.

“Despicable. What is your purpose for coming to the Realm of the G.o.ds? I don't care what you want to do, you won't succeed!”

“What do we want to do?” Gu Lingzhi repeated in a light voice, her expression was complicated as she looked at Hunting Cat, “We trained so hard in the Tianyuan Continent and finally managed to ascend into the Realm of the G.o.ds. We have yet to see what the Realm of the G.o.ds look like and whether it was like what rumors had said when we started getting hunted down by people from the Realm of the G.o.ds for no reason. What did we do wrong?”

“That's right.” Xin Yi sneered and added, “Everyone that boasts that they are from the Realm of the G.o.ds seem to have forgotten that the first few members in the Realm of the G.o.ds also ascended from the Tianyuan Continent. Why are your ancestors allowed to ascend but we can't? It is too despicable!”

Qin Xinran nodded sharply, “That's right, that's right. The Realm of the G.o.ds does not belong to you. Why can you all live here but not allow us to ascend?”

“This…” Hunting Cat was fl.u.s.tered and could not think of a reb.u.t.tal as everyone added on.

It was true, the Realm of the G.o.ds did not belong to anyone. Strictly speaking, almost everyone in the Realm of the G.o.ds were descendants of people that ascended from the Tianyuan Continent. The number of true residents in the Realm of the G.o.ds were pathetically little. The fact that Gu Lingzhi and her group could ascend meant that they were successful. But…

“Why would the Deity King lie to us?” With so many years under his governance, the majority of the people had already taken Pan Luo's words to be the truth. They were also used to listening to Pan Luo's orders and seldom questioned him. This was why the wanted notice of the Ascension Members had such a great response from the people.

But now, even Hunting Cat was uncertain.

“Why can't the Deity King lie?” Gu Lingzhi reb.u.t.ted before chuckling. The corners of her mouth pulled up in a sneer, “The person that is the best at lying in this entire world is him.”

A long time ago, he had lied that the entire Spirit Tribe had been exterminated. He then lied to the people of the Tianyuan Continent, making most of them ignorantly stop their dreams of becoming True G.o.ds. Now, it seems like Pan Luo has done even more. Even the people from the Realm of the G.o.ds had been lied to.

“Rude! How dare you smear the Deity King's reputation?” Hunting Cat bellowed. His whip was like a spiritual snake and flew towards Gu Lingzhi. However, it was blocked by Rong Yuan who laughed at him pitifully, “How unfortunate, you don't even know the true colours of the person you respect. I really feel sad for you.”

“Shut up, I won't let you insult the Deity King!” Hunting Cat growled. His eyes brushed over and started to fight with Rong Yuan again.

Gu Lingzhi was extremely disappointed as she shook her head, “Stupid, really stupid! How can someone like him still have people respecting him? Could it be that no one recorded what happened all those years back?”

“Of course not.” Xin Yi rolled his shoulder, “Even if there were records, Pan Luo would have already destroyed them. He craves power so much, how can he bear to leave any mark on his history?”

Hunting Cat was slightly frustrated as he listened to Gu Lingzhi and Xin Yi's words. The Deity King was such a respected man, how could he be the hypocrite that they were talking about? The hesitance that he had earlier completely disappeared as soon as they insulted the person he respected and he became even more determined.

The Deity King was such an honourable man, that cannot be wrong! Alas, no one from the Tianyuan Continent was good, how dare they try to shake his devotion to the Deity King?

Realising that they could not change the image that Hunting Cat had of Pan Luo in such a short period of time, they gave up trying to reason with him. With all of them attacking at the same time, they had suppressed Hunting Cat in no time. Using his own long whip, they tied him up firmly and rushed back to the Gui Yuan Clan while the sky was still dark.

Gu Lingzhi had no intentions of taking Hunting Cat's life but instead, used the Blood-sucking Vine to suppress his spiritual energy. They locked him in the jail in the Disciplinary Hall. They were going to raise him comfortably.

Of course, comfortable in comparison to other captives.

Completely controlled, Gu Lingzhi did not hold back as she used him to train. Whenever she had nothing to do, she would release him from the cell to exchange a few blows. When she was done, she would then use the Blood-sucking Vine and throw him back into the cell.

Never in his life did Hunting Cat face so much humiliation, but he had no choice.

A few months pa.s.sed in this manner and Hunting Cat could no longer stand being used for training. He chose to remain silent. When he was brought out of the jail, he refused to say or do anything no matter how much they tried to instigate him.

Seeing this, Gu Lingzhi snorted, “Only a few months have pa.s.sed and you can't take it anymore? Then what about those trapped in the Tianyuan Continent for generations?”
