100: Chapter 100 There Really is a Secret Realm
Soon, Zhao Gang's shadow appeared within his Divine Sense.
At this moment, that kid was sneakily hiding behind a large tree, his eyes filled with a bit of nervousness as he constantly scanned the surroundings and occasionally looked back to see if it was the cliff ahead.
Chun Xiaobai immediately restrained his aura and silently crept up behind him, slapping him on the shoulder.
"Slap!"
"Ah—!"
Zhao Gang was so startled that he let out a howl, his voice echoing back and forth through the open valley.
"Uh..."
This howl directly stunned Chun Xiaobai.
Damn it, a grown man, how can he be more cowardly than a woman?
"Oh! It's the Great King. Great King, you're here, you scared me to death!"
Zhao Gang patted his chest, looking at the cliff with lingering fear, then quickly pulled Chun Xiaobai behind the large tree before speaking cautiously.
"Great King, I discovered a team earlier and tracked them all the way here. I saw them enter the cliff and disappear with my own eyes, and then the aura of a Formation emerged! I estimate there's some kind of Immortal Cave or Secret Realm below!"
"Holy crap, there really is a Secret Realm?"
Chun Xiaobai quickly activated his Tongbao Divine Eye and looked toward the cliff, but found no movement, only a hazy grayish-white Qi.
However, he didn't mind it.
His Tongbao Divine Eye was useful, but once there was an object in the way, it would be blocked by the wealth-qi of the surface material.
In his eyes, this cliff was just grayish-white Qi, representing ordinary mountain rock. If there really were treasures at the bottom of the cliff, he naturally wouldn't be able to see them.
"Let's go take a look."
"Alright!" Zhao Gang nodded, but the moment Chun Xiaobai turned around, a flash of ruthlessness crossed his eyes as he quietly followed.
Chun Xiaobai cautiously approached the edge of the cliff and leaned over to look down, his face instantly darkening.
Below was still a murky gray, with no wealth-qi to speak of.
"Hiss, could it be out of range... Holy crap, is this cliff really this deep?"
At the very moment he was wondering!
He suddenly felt his back sink as someone gave him a violent push!
He jerked his head around to see Zhao Gang's hands erupting with spiritual power, pressing hard against his spine.
Chun Xiaobai frowned and said, "What are you doing?"
"Uh!!!"
Zhao Gang was stunned.
This... how is this guy like a mountain?!
He gritted his teeth and increased his strength again to push forward, but Chun Xiaobai remained in that hunched-over position, completely motionless!
Zhao Gang's desperate move made Chun Xiaobai realize what was happening instantly.
This kid wanted to push him off to fall to his death so he could plunder the treasures on his body!
"Buzz—!"
Chun Xiaobai's face suddenly darkened, and a monstrous murderous intent erupted from within him!
The moment Zhao Gang felt this murderous intent, his heart skipped a beat. He felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar, his soul trembling with terror and his teeth chattering.
"This... this..."
This murderous intent was almost tangible, even causing ripples in the surrounding air!
Just who is he?!
Even those Elders in the Sect who had fought on battlefields and killed countless people, or even the Sect Master, did not possess such terrifying Killing Intent!
"Seeking death!"
Chun Xiaobai slowly turned around and grabbed Zhao Gang by the neck, his eyes instantly turning blood-red!
"I let bygones be bygones, ignored your backstabbing, took you in as my lackeys, and led you to make a fortune! And you damn well dare to plot against my life?!"
"Do you really think I, Chun Xiaobai, am a pushover?!"
"Wu... wu..." Zhao Gang's face turned the color of pig liver as he struggled desperately. "No... no... Great... King... you... misunder..."
"Crack!"
Before he could finish, a cold light flashed in Chun Xiaobai's eyes, and his fingers suddenly tightened!
Zhao Gang's neck made a crisp sound, his head slumped to the side, and he instantly stopped breathing.
Chun Xiaobai held up Zhao Gang's corpse at the edge of the cliff for a long time before finally throwing him down into the ten-thousand-foot abyss with a violent flick of his hand.
"You son of a bitch!"
This was the first time he had been betrayed since his debut, including his time in Black Wind Stronghold.
"Whew—"
Chun Xiaobai let out a long breath of turbid air, and instead, he became calmer than ever before.
At this moment, he suddenly realized that the Cultivation World was completely different from his Black Wind Stronghold.
In Black Wind Stronghold, if you rewarded those brothers with two taels of silver, they would be happy for days.
But the people in this Cultivation World are like insatiable wolves; they can never be truly tamed.
After earning so much money following him, even if they weren't grateful, they at least shouldn't have backstabbed him for his life, right?
But this guy was blinded by greed and actually coveted his life!
"Come out!"
Chun Xiaobai suddenly spoke coldly toward a large tree in the distance.
As soon as he finished speaking, three figures suddenly darted out from behind the tree, fleeing rapidly in three different directions!
With an expressionless face, Chun Xiaobai took a step forward. His figure instantly vanished and reappeared behind one person, throwing a simple punch!
"Bang!"
That person didn't even have time to scream before his entire body exploded into a cloud of blood mist!
Next, he turned his body and appeared in another direction, throwing another plain and simple punch.
The previous scene played out once more.
That figure didn't have time to look back before exploding into a cloud of blood mist.
Next, Chun Xiaobai's figure flashed again.
The last Disciple saw this and was scared to the point of Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering. He immediately slammed on the brakes in mid-air and stopped a short distance in front of Chun Xiaobai.
He knelt directly on the ground and kowtowed frantically: "Great King! Great King, have mercy!"
"This has nothing to do with me! It was all Zhao Gang! It was all Zhao Gang's idea! He said as long as we pushed you off the cliff, even if you didn't die from the fall, you would be..."
Before he could finish, Chun Xiaobai threw a punch through the air, and an invisible force instantly pierced through his chest.
"Bang!"
Another cloud of blood mist exploded in the air.
Chun Xiaobai's figure flashed, and he returned to the edge of the cliff, as if he had just crushed four annoying ants.
He usually didn't like seeing blood, but that didn't mean he was soft-hearted.
On the contrary, the blood that had stained his hands was already too much to count, so much that he had long since grown used to it.
Years ago, when the Imperial Court's army of a hundred thousand surrounded Black Wind Stronghold, he relied on his own strength and a single blade to keep those hundred thousand soldiers from even setting foot on the mountain.
Finally, those soldiers were so insane that they used the innocent commoners at the foot of the mountain to threaten him.
With a single blade, he charged through the enemy lines three times, personally decapitating thirty thousand heads, terrifying those soldiers until their spirits broke and they were utterly defeated!
Originally, he just wanted to be a Mountain King quietly, but some blind fools just had to come looking for death.
Then, he would just have to grant their wish.
Shaking off the distracting thoughts in his mind, Chun Xiaobai turned his gaze back to the cliff beneath his feet.
Although this was just a trap set by Zhao Gang, he keenly sensed that this cliff was indeed somewhat unusual.
The murky gray meant his Tongbao Divine Eye hadn't seen to the bottom.
