106: Got robbed, something happened!

The two exchanged a few more words.

After confirming the meeting place and time, they parted ways.

"Oh, right, Student Li Ziyu."

"If you have time, you'd best update your Martial Artist Medal."

"If you have a Grade 4 or higher Martial Artist Medal, you'll get discounts whether you're buying or selling cultivation materials, or purchasing weapons."

Before leaving, Lei Zhan said to Li Ziyu.

"Alright!"

"I'll go to Modu University's Martial Arts Association to update my martial artist rank when I get back."

With that, Li Ziyu switched to Wind Breathing and activated his Subtle Body Movement.

He dashed towards another direction in the Daxing Wilderness Area.

"That speed..."

"I really don't know how Student Li Ziyu cultivates."

Lei Zhan watched Li Ziyu disappear, his face filled with envy, his tone full of emotion.

After speaking, he tied the rope from the other wooden sled to his waist and walked towards Huangye City.

...

"The distress signal has disappeared..."

"He's probably dead."

On the other side of the Daxing Wilderness Area, Zuo Xiaoqing looked at the vanished red distress signal on his storage bracelet, his expression solemn as he gazed towards Huangye City.

"I'm guessing they probably encountered that Black Dragon King and then sent out a distress signal."

"However, encountering a Black Dragon King in the Daxing Wilderness Area basically leaves no chance of escape."

"They can only consider themselves unlucky."

Zuo Xiaoqing shrugged.

Then he waved to the two young women following behind him:

"Let's head back to Huangye City immediately; two Black Dragon Kings have appeared in the Daxing Wilderness Area, and it's no longer safe here."

...

On the way back to Huangye City, Zuo Xiaoqing's eyes widened as he stared at the two enormous Black Dragon King corpses Lei Zhan was dragging behind him.

His mouth dropped open into an 'O' shape:

"Holy crap!?!"

"You killed both of these Black Dragon Kings?!"

"Did your strength break through again?"

"Awesome, you can now hunt two Black Dragon Kings alone!"

Zuo Xiaoqing walked over to the Black Dragon King's corpse, touching it while exclaiming in admiration.

Lei Zhan ignored him.

He also didn't mention that Li Ziyu had killed them.

During the National Martial Arts University League, they and Shengpan Martial Arts University were rivals.

He wouldn't expose Li Ziyu's strength, lest they devise strategies to counter Li Ziyu during the competition.

"Heh heh, just two Black Dragon Kings, a small matter."

"Alright, that's enough talk."

"I've contacted the buyer; I'm going to sell the Black Dragon Kings."

"Impressive!"

"You really killed them?"

"It seems Modu University will achieve good results in this year's National Martial Arts University League."

Zuo Xiaoqing exclaimed in admiration, his face full of envy.

After speaking, he stepped aside.

Once Lei Zhan had walked far away, Zuo Xiaoqing's expression became calm.

Watching Lei Zhan drag the Black Dragon Kings away, he murmured:

"To be able to hunt two Black Dragon Kings, Lei Zhan's strength has reached the peak of a Grade 4 Martial Artist."

"Tsk, but I remember there was also a freshman named Li Ziyu who went out with him, right?"

"Heh, he probably died in the fight with the Black Dragon King because his strength was too weak."

Zuo Xiaoqing shook his head.

This made him feel a bit better.

If Lei Zhan could protect someone while still hunting two Black Dragon Kings, then his strength would truly be outrageous.

...

At this moment, in a desolate flat area outside Huangye City, Lei Lao Hu was leaning against a tree, smoking a cigar, boredly looking at the scenery.

He was not tall and slightly chubby.

He wore a well-tailored suit and a tie.

On his hand was the latest model of the storage bracelet from Daxia.

He looked like a successful person, a big businessman boss.

Around Lei Lao Hu, three martial artists in combat suits, fully armed and exuding a powerful aura, were either sitting or standing.

"Boss, when is that kid Lei Zhan coming over?"

Lei Erhu carefully wiped the snow-white long saber in his hand, looking towards Huangye City.

Lei Lao Hu raised his hand to check the time:

"By my calculations, it should be about time."

"Heh heh, once this transaction is done, we'll make a huge profit again, and the brothers can enjoy themselves for a while."

Lei Lao Hu took a puff of his cigar and said with a smile.

"Boss still has the best connections."

"After trading this Black Dragon King, the commission alone will earn us at least 300 million!"

"Following Boss is much faster than our previous kidnapping and ransom schemes, haha!"

The others echoed with laughter.

Lei Lao Hu's mouth also curled up high, a hint of smugness flashing in his eyes.

They used to be members of a Grade 4 hunting squad.

All four members of the team were Grade 4 Martial Artists.

But later, due to greed, they offended a powerful martial artist.

After hiding for a few years, they re-emerged as black market merchants.

After several years of operation, they had built up a good reputation.

"Tsk, I heard this transaction's client is a student from Modu Martial Arts University?"

"To be able to hunt a Grade 4 high-level dragon beast, the Black Dragon King, while still a student, he's got some real skills."

Lei Sanhu, who was wiping his knife nearby, also chimed in.

"Boss, it's just a student. How about we just rob him this time?"

Lei Xiaohu leaned against a tree, playing with a throwing knife in his hand, his voice sinister.

Although they were black market merchants, they had done plenty of 'black eating black' (double-crossing) in the past.

"Heh heh, while a Black Dragon King corpse is valuable, it's not enough to ruin the reputation we've built over many years."

Lei Lao Hu blew out a smoke ring and said with a smile.

"Besides, this student can hunt a Black Dragon King alone, so he's got some real skills."

"The risk is too great; it's not worth our gamble."

"They're here."

At that moment, a figure approached them from a distance.

Lei Lao Hu threw his cigar on the ground, stomped on it hard, and looked up at the figure approaching from afar.

The other three also turned their gaze towards the approaching figure.

Lei Zhan, dragging two Black Dragon Kings, walked up to Lei Lao Hu and the others.

He stopped a few dozen meters away from them.

Behind him, two enormous corpses were being dragged along.

Lei Zhan untied the harness from his body, pointed at the two Black Dragon King corpses behind him, and said indifferently:

"I've brought the goods. Name your price."

"Ha! Brother, it's two now?"

Lei Lao Hu's eyes narrowed into slits as he looked at the two massive Black Dragon King corpses behind Lei Zhan, a sharp glint flashing in his eyes.

"Mm."

"The situation changed; another one appeared."

"No more talking, just give me a price for both."

Lei Zhan didn't say much.

He was dealing with a black market merchant this time.

Black market merchants offered prices two to three tenths higher than official channels.

And he had cooperated with Lei Lao Hu a few times; his credibility was reliable enough.

Although the gazes of the other few armed men made him subtly uncomfortable, Lei Zhan didn't pay too much attention to it.

"Alright, I'll inspect the goods now."

Lei Lao Hu said, walking forward to check the Black Dragon King's corpses.

When he walked behind Lei Zhan, at an angle Lei Zhan couldn't see, Lei Lao Hu winked at Lei Erhu and the other two.

The three instantly understood, a sinister grin flashing across their lips.

Then, with a clang, the three immediately drew their blades and erupted!
