58: The hatred for killing one's son is irreconcilable!

“...”

The three people following Fan Feng emerged from behind a large tree.

The three of them looked at each other, quite speechless.

This Hanbing City Lord had pushed the blame for his son's death onto Ning Xiwei.

It was clearly he who, in order to save his own wretched life!

Had forced his son, who was already out of danger, to risk his life, using a heavily injured Rank 4 body to distract a Peak Rank 5 Great Ape.

That was how he died.

Turning around now that he was safe himself,

He pushed all the blame onto Ning Xiwei.

And even claimed the revenge for his son was irreconcilable?

What a character!

A real f*cking character!

He had completely subverted their understanding of how low shamelessness could go.

“This guy who betrayed his own son actually has the face to blame Xiwei, I'm truly impressed.”

Sun Feifei was so angry she laughed out loud.

Ning Xiwei was also grumbling, quite speechless,

“He should be irreconcilable with himself. If he wants to avenge his son, wouldn't committing suicide do it?”

“These people are truly hypocritical and shameless!”

Ning Xiwei couldn't help but sigh; there were truly few good people in this world.

“Little Skeleton even killed the Great Ape that killed his son. Speaking of which, he should be thanking Little Skeleton.”

“Hmm?”

After hearing Ning Xiwei's words, Sun Feifei couldn't help but gasp. Then, her eyes widened, and she gave Ning Xiwei a thumbs up.

Lu Chen also couldn't help but let out a 'kaka' laugh.

Speaking of which,

Lu Chen also felt he wasn't much in the wrong.

He hadn't made a move against them; he just couldn't stand seeing them bully the Secret Realm monsters, so he injected life energy into the Realm. What was the problem with that?

According to Ning Xiwei's logic, she was right.

He killed the Great Ape.

He had indeed avenged Fan Yangxu.

The three of them quietly peeked out from beside the large tree—two small heads and one skull—staring at Fan Feng, who had finished venting.

“Damn it!”

Fan Feng looked around; not a single subordinate was left.

When entering the demigods secret treasure, he had brought over twenty Rank 4 guards, but now he was all alone.

“That little Ning Xiwei, even with her Skeleton Soldier, only has Peak Rank 4 combat power at most. She's not worth mentioning.”

“However, the demigods secret treasure restricts mutual harm. Even if I find Ning Xiwei, I can't do anything to her.”

“What should I do?”

Fan Feng paced back and forth.

“Resurrection, resurrection...”

“That's it.”

Fan Feng's gloomy eyes flickered with a sinister light,

“The Minotaur my son faced could resurrect, and the Great Ape chasing me could also resurrect. It seems the Guardian Beasts of this layer of the Treasure Trove have the ability to resurrect.”

“They only have Peak Rank 4 strength.”

“I'll go find a Treasure Trove with a Peak Rank 4 or Rank 5 Guardian Beast, lure them over, and let them be killed by the Guardian Beast to avenge my son!”

“Letting the Guardian Beast kill them is actually too good for them!”

“Find the Guardian Beast first, then find them.”

Fan Feng went off to search for a guarded Treasure Trove.

“I'm about to burst.”

Sun Feifei covered her mouth, her shoulders shaking. Only after she knew Fan Feng had left did she burst out laughing,

“Hahaha!”

Ning Xiwei also smiled,

“He really thinks the Guardian Beasts are resurrecting because of the demigods secret treasure!”

Lu Chen's upper and lower jaws clicked as he let out a 'kaka' laugh.

He stepped out of the woods first, his foot bones crunching on the fallen leaves.

He also withdrew his concealing aura, no longer hiding his presence.

“Little Skeleton, are we not following Fan Feng anymore?”

Sun Feifei asked in confusion.

Ning Xiwei tapped her on the head,

“Dummy, Little Skeleton wants that Hanbing City Lord to discover us.”

Ning Xiwei tilted her small head up, looking at Lu Chen.

She seemed to be saying: Hurry up and praise me.

Lu Chen shook his head at the sight.

The Little Girl's personality seemed to have become increasingly lively since she stood up to Fan Yangxu.

Leading the two girls, Lu Chen and the group walked slowly across the land.

“Eh.”

Sun Feifei stepped on something hard in the grass.

She picked it up and let out an exclamation,

“Xiwei, look! I actually found a Rank 4 Spirit Crystal! Hahaha.”

Ning Xiwei also smiled.

It was a good omen.

At that moment,

A sudden exclamation came from ahead.

Lu Chen and the others, who had been following Fan Feng the whole way, knew it was Fan Feng's voice.

Under Lu Chen's detailed perception, he knew that this guy had found a guarded Treasure Trove with a Peak Rank 4 Guardian Beast. Thus, he deliberately made a sound and then hid to the side.

This guy's luck was actually quite good.

He hadn't walked far before he actually stumbled upon a guarded Treasure Trove.

At this time,

After Fan Feng let out an exclamation, he shrank into the bushes, concealing all his aura.

“Let's see if I can lure someone in.”

“If it's not Ning Xiwei, I'll take the lead to kill the Guardian Beast and open the treasure.”

“If it is...”

“Hm!”

In his line of sight, two girls and a skeleton appeared.

“This combination... it's Ning Xiwei!”

“Haha, you're truly unlucky. It seems even the heavens don't want you to live!”

Fan Feng was wild with joy in his heart. He hadn't expected his casually devised plan to actually succeed!

Even God was helping him!

His son's spirit in heaven must also be impatient to deal with Ning Xiwei!

What a thrill!

Fan Feng felt that things had never gone so smoothly for him.

On this side,

Lu Chen had already engaged the Guardian Beast, a giant one-horned mountain goat.

“Baaa~~”

Peak Rank 4.

Lu Chen sized it up. With his Mental Energy exceeding ten thousand, he could vaguely perceive that the one-horned goat's power, agility, and Physique attributes were around thirty thousand.

Only a quarter of his own.

He could kill it in one strike.

However,

Glancing at the bushes where Fan Feng was hiding,

He let out a 'kaka' laugh.

I'll play along with you.

Lu Chen kicked off the ground, and his entire skeletal frame charged straight ahead.

“Baaa~”

The one-horned goat charged back.

Lu Chen's two palms braced against the one-horned goat's head.

The two were locked in a stalemate.

The one-horned goat's front hooves pawed the ground, pushing Lu Chen back, his feet carving furrows in the earth.

In the bushes,

Fan Feng took it all in and let out a disdainful sneer,

“Trash! Its strength can't even compare to a Peak Rank 4 one-horned goat!”

“That Ning Xiwei is even more trash; her Realm is only Rank 2, Stage 9.”

“Die! Let this one-horned goat trample you to death!”

Sun Feifei watched as Lu Chen was pushed back repeatedly by the one-horned goat.

A look of shock appeared on her face.

“Little Skeleton has actually met his match!”

“Well, it makes sense; after all, Little Skeleton is only at the Rank 2 Realm.”

“This one-horned goat is truly powerful; I can only sense how strong it is!”

“Little Skeleton has actually reached his limit!”

“But Fan Feng is still nearby.”

She was somewhat worried.

Ning Xiwei chuckled quietly, leaned close to Sun Feifei's ear, and whispered,

“Can't you tell Little Skeleton is faking it?”

“Oh, I forgot.”

Sun Feifei gave a bitter smile.

After all, just the leaked aura of that one-horned goat, even with Little Skeleton blocking it, made her heart tremble. She had subconsciously thought Little Skeleton had reached his limit.

Having such a thought was quite normal.

The two girls enjoyed watching Lu Chen's performance.

Lu Chen slapped the one-horned goat's head, but the moment he struck, he quickly withdrew ninety percent of his force.

The one-horned goat's head was knocked aside, and it kicked out at Lu Chen.

Before the hoof even made contact with Lu Chen,

Lu Chen quickly pretended to be kicked flying.

He didn't dare let the goat's hoof actually strike his body.

If it really hit him, that one-horned goat's hoof would definitely shatter instantly, and the ruse would be exposed immediately.

Back and forth they went.

Lu Chen and the one-horned goat 'battled' for over ten minutes.

The one-horned goat was panting heavily, its eyes becoming much clearer.

Fear grew in its heart; what a terrifying skeletal frame!

“Ten minutes should be enough.”

Taking advantage of the one-horned goat's retreat, Lu Chen snapped its neck with a single blow.

Then, as if exhausted, he slumped to the ground.

In the bushes,

Fan Feng's eyes lit up, flashing with intense, crazed hatred,

“It's coming!”

“Resurrect, hurry up and resurrect!”

“Launch a sneak attack and kill them!”
