88: Chapter 88 Yang Xu Boards the Ship

Just as the entire Anping County was plunged into dire straits, Lin Xiao was constantly utilizing the Laws of Time and the Law of Fate to frantically scavenge for opportunities.

Of course, they were not the only ones with good fortune. Under such great upheaval, quite a few figures were indeed forged. They would act as lone wolves, biting hard whenever they saw an opportunity.

Only after roughly digesting their prey would they come out to hunt again.

Or they would gather a group of demigods and deities together. They would hit and run, swarming when they encountered benefits and scattering when they encountered danger.

In the end, if they had the chance to gather again, everyone would still greet each other with smiles and offer mutual compliments, as if nothing like betraying their teammates had ever happened.

At this moment, outside a high-end residential complex, over a dozen pairs of eyes were secretly watching. From time to time, they could clearly feel the intense fluctuations of Divine Power erupting from within; the battle was clearly very fierce.

The leader was a middle-aged man with a somewhat fierce appearance. At this moment, he licked his lips with some excitement. His words were full of irrepressible agitation.

"I have been lurking here for a whole day, and heaven has truly not let down my painstaking efforts. This time, there are as many as 16 First-order Deities invading the complex.

I am not very clear about the situation inside the complex, nor do I know how long they can hold out. We have 12 people here, after all; we are prepared, and they are not.

Adding the residents inside the complex, we can definitely take down this group of deities. When the time comes, everyone will get one deity each. You have three minutes to consider.

If anyone does not want to take the risk, you can withdraw now. We do not force anyone into such high-risk matters."

As his voice fell, none of the deities beside him showed any intention of backing down. Their faces were all filled with irrepressible excitement.

At this moment, in the group, a man with a generic face was looking at this bunch of youngsters beside him, speechless.

"I must have been cursed by those old fogeys from the Liu Family! Otherwise, how could I be so unlucky all the time? It was just an ordinary Family on a remote planet, yet they actually had a Divine Artifact that could see through illusions.

That would be fine, after all, this thing could be considered a trump card of the Family. They wouldn't use it easily, yet, as if cursed, I ran into a crazed undead who wanted to ascend to a Intermediate God.

If life on a remote planet were always this exciting, how could anyone survive? As expected, I must have been cursed..."

Elder Yang had originally intended to rely on the Law of Falsehood to go to the Chen Family to sponge off them, and incidentally, swindle some power of Law.

As a result, not long after arriving at the Chen Family, he encountered this kind of thing. The entire Family was besieged by more than a dozen Second-order Deities. Forced by circumstances, the clan elders had no choice but to bring out a trump card.

As luck would have it, this trump card happened to have the ability to break illusions. It directly exposed him, this fake Clan Chief, completely.

Fortunately, the situation of the other party was also not optimistic, so they did not insist on keeping him. After coming out, he originally wanted to join the other side, because a madman is a madman.

They truly had strength. If he really joined them, he would still be able to swindle quite a bit of Law. Unfortunately, the other side was not only crazy but also damn stubborn.

To join them, he had to complete a conversion. How could Elder Yang accept that? He had been cultivating his Law of Falsehood just fine; if he suddenly switched to primarily using the Law of Undead, what would these hundreds of years count for?

Would it count as his hard work? Would it count as his ability to endure hardship? Would it count as his ability to swindle?

With neither side pleased, he could only wander outside like this. He had only just met this group of people; anyway, he had nothing better to do, so he just decided to join in the fun.

"Alright, since everyone has no objections... Hmm?"

The middle-aged man leading them revealed a satisfied smile after seeing no one voice an objection. Just as he was about to give the order to set off, he discovered a mini starship descending from the sky.

The next moment, more than twenty deities, appearing like well-trained reapers, tacitly killed all the demigods and deities who were keeping watch outside on the spot.

Passing by, they collected the corpses into their Divine Kingdoms. These reapers did not stop for a second, rushing into the complex. Then, the previously very lively fluctuations of Divine Power within began to gradually weaken until they disappeared completely.

When these people came out of the complex, apart from a few bloodstains on the corners of their clothes, they looked as if they had just finished a stroll through a shopping mall.

Seeing this scene, how could the leading middle-aged man not know that his prey had been snatched by someone else? Rage instantly surged to his head, and he shouted angrily at the others beside him.

"Let's go! We'll change places. I know of a few more high-end residential complexes! I don't believe we'll get intercepted every single time!"

Originally, when everyone saw his expression, they all thought he was going to rush out and fight the other party. Many people even secretly decided in their hearts that they would run away immediately once the fight started!

Just kidding, being able to cleanly and neatly clear out the 16 deities inside in such a short time—no matter how you look at it, this wasn't something their small arms and legs could handle.

As a result, this sudden remark from the middle-aged man almost made them throw out their backs. At this moment, someone, not knowing if they were stubborn or what, suddenly muttered a sentence.

"So we just watched for nothing? Even if we don't have credit, we have hard work, right? At the very least, they should share some of their gains with us!"

"That's right! Everything should follow the principle of first come, first served. It was clearly our prey, so why was it snatched by them so inexplicably? Let's go! Let's go and demand an explanation from them!"

It was unclear whether these people were truly blinded by greed or had other thoughts. As they spoke, they actually stood up, wanting to go and have a word with Lin Xiao's group.

Obviously, most people were still clear-headed. Things like "first come, first served" or "credit and hard work" were fine for deceiving those Divine Beings.

Since they were all deities, who would believe that nonsense? Once you enter the deity battlefield, the ones who strike the hardest and most viciously are your own people.

In the current situation, even the County Mayor was overwhelmed. If they really dared to rush up and say something, and were killed, it could be said that they were the ones who attempted robbery first!

Lin Xiao's clean and efficient actions immediately piqued Elder Yang's curiosity. They were all First-order Deities, and the difference in numbers wasn't large. How did the other party manage to be so fast?

Having developed an interest, he immediately took action. As he quickly ran towards Lin Xiao's side, his figure underwent a change in the eyes of the other deities.

At the same time, a sudden piece of information emerged in their cognition: this person was also their companion, who had been delayed by some matters.

Meng Ning frowned and urged him impatiently.

"Yang San, what is going on with you? The master repeatedly instructed us before not to delay. Do you want us to be surrounded by the enemy?"

An apologetic look appeared on Elder Yang's face. He began to explain sincerely.

"Brother Meng, I am really sorry. When I just came out, I thought I saw a fish that slipped through the net. I was just anxious for a moment, so I got delayed..."

In reality, Elder Yang hadn't opened his mouth at all; his expressions, actions, and words were all automatically presented in the minds of Lin Xiao's people according to their own logic.

"Hurry up and board, we still have to rush to the next point."

Watching Elder Yang's back as he dashingly joined Lin Xiao and the others, this group of deities finally realized, albeit a bit slowly.

"Damn it! We've encountered a mole!"
