152: Hunter

"Damn it!"

"Damn it!"

"Damn it!"

Wu Su roared in fury.

Being toyed with by Shen Xi made him feel utterly disgraced.

He had thought this would be a decisive kill.

Not only would Shen Xi be unable to enter the Chasing Wind Secret Realm, but his life would also be forfeited.

Unexpectedly, Shen Xi had managed to cleverly resolve the situation.

"Hmph! So what if you managed to escape by luck? There's still a month's time. In this month, you'll only be able to flee and hide like a rat, until I catch you and finally kill you."

Wu Su quickly adjusted his mentality, and a confident smile reappeared on his face.

He wasn't worried that Shen Xi would be able to leave the Chasing Wind Secret Realm alive.

Besides him, there was also a Deceiver waiting for him.

In fact, if it weren't for the Deceiver's special identity, which prevented him from acting openly and forced him to secretly infiltrate the Chasing Wind Secret Realm...

With Wu Su and the Deceiver working together, Shen Xi would not have been able to escape the battle.

However, Wu Su was still full of confidence.

This was just an attempt after all.

If it succeeded, everyone would be happy; if it failed, he wouldn't suffer any losses.

"Hurry and enter the Chasing Wind Secret Realm!"

Wu Su shouted.

Time was running out.

His battle with Shen Xi, though simple to describe, had actually taken up more than ten minutes.

The entrance could only be maintained for half an hour, and with so many people queuing and scrambling to enter the Chasing Wind Secret Realm, it had further delayed a lot of time.

Wu Su also didn't want to miss the Opportunity in the Chasing Wind Secret Realm.

Therefore, he quickly pushed through the crowd, taking Sun Wei into the Secret Realm... Swish!

The sound of teleportation followed.

Accompanying it was a feeling of dizziness.

It took a while for Shen Xi to finally adapt to this sensation.

The moment he regained consciousness, he kept his nerves taut.

This was not the outside world, but the Chasing Wind Secret Realm, full of dangers, where peril could appear at any moment.

Soon, Shen Xi had thoroughly scouted his surroundings.

This was a desert, desolate and uninhabited. As far as the eye could see, there was only endless yellow sand.

"Area 32?"

Shen Xi quickly determined his location.

The Chasing Wind Secret Realm had a total of thirty-six areas, and the environment of endless yellow sand only existed in Area 32.

This made Shen Xi smile bitterly with a hint of helplessness.

He didn't know whether he was lucky or unlucky.

Area 32 was notoriously a barren land.

There were no traces of Yao Beasts here, nor were there any Opportunities.

All Martial Artists who were teleported to Area 32 would leave this area immediately; otherwise, if they wasted precious time here, this trip to Chasing Wind would be in vain.

"Ding! Friendly reminder, Host, the fourth martial token fragment is in this area."

Just as Shen Xi was about to leave, the System's notification sounded.

Hearing this, Shen Xi couldn't help but stop.

"Where exactly is the fragment?"

"It's less than ten kilometers from the Host. Please explore eastward on your own."

This time, the System proved to be extremely reliable.

Although it didn't provide specific coordinates, it had already given Shen Xi a lot of information.

The martial token fragment was very close to Shen Xi, only about ten kilometers away.

And the specific direction was to the east.

With these two clues, Shen Xi's search for the martial token fragment would be much easier.

Thinking of this, Shen Xi took a step and walked eastward.

At the same time.

In the shadows.

Two figures were lurking, their gaze constantly fixed on Shen Xi.

"Big Brother, this guy seems like a fat sheep!"

The thin figure said eagerly.

"Hmm, he seems to be. One person being teleported to Area 32 yet showing no emotional fluctuations, he clearly has confidence."

The plump figure nodded in agreement.

"Then let's make our move quickly!"

The thin figure said excitedly.

"No rush. Didn't I say, this kid acts very confidently. Either his strength is outstanding, or he possesses treasures. In either case, our chances of success will be greatly reduced. We'll wait until he goes to attack the Regional Barrier, then seize the Opportunity to strike."

The plump figure was like a patient wolf, waiting for the right moment to hunt.

"As expected of Big Brother, you're always so meticulous in your actions."

The thin figure couldn't help but flatter him.

"Nonsense, otherwise this Big Brother position would be yours."

The plump figure shook his head proudly.

Area 32 was indeed desolate.

There were no Yao Beasts, nor were there any Opportunities.

But precisely because of this, a special profession had emerged.

Hunters.

These Two People, upon entering Area 32, would immediately conceal themselves.

Then, they would wait for other unlucky people who were teleported to Area 32.

Some had just been teleported to Area 32 and hadn't even reacted, still in a dazed state.

The Hunters would seize the Opportunity to strike unexpectedly, killing people and seizing treasures.

Others, like Shen Xi, reacted immediately.

Hunters preferred such Two People even more.

This meant that the opponent must have known about the situation in the Chasing Wind Secret Realm beforehand.

And those who could know in advance usually had some background.

Either an elder in their family had once trained in the Chasing Wind Secret Realm, or they had learned about the situation through other special means.

And such Two People definitely had some good things on them. The resources from hunting one might be enough to make the Hunter suddenly rich.

Because of this, The Fat and Thin Duo targeted Shen Xi.

If they could successfully hunt Shen Xi, they might be able to gain a significant advantage from it.

However, the difficulty of hunting such Two People would also increase significantly.

Therefore, The Fat and Thin Duo discussed waiting until Shen Xi reached the Regional Barrier.

The Chasing Wind Secret Realm was divided into thirty-six areas, and between each adjacent area, there was a Regional Barrier.

Only those whose strength reached a certain level could break through the Regional Barrier and go to other areas.

And breaking through the Regional Barrier naturally required a large amount of physical strength and Origin Qi. At that time, The Fat and Thin Duo would be able to deal with a weakened Shen Xi in their peak condition, and their chances of winning would naturally increase significantly.

The Two People's plan was very good: not to rush into action, but to wait until Shen Xi was exhausted.

And so it was.

Shen Xi traveled ahead, while The Fat and Thin Duo followed closely behind.

Besides preventing their intentions from being discovered by Shen Xi, the Two People also had to guard against being targeted by other Hunters.

Hunters and prey, sometimes the shift only takes a moment.

The Fat and Thin Duo were Hunters, but they could also be treated as prey.
