63: Chapter 50, this guy is ruthless!

63: Chapter 50, this guy is ruthless!

“You’ve got high tech, I’ve got thick skin.”

“No matter how eloquently you talk, one shot from me and you’re dead.”

Nobody expected Tang Fei to start shooting without a word.

No threats, no warnings.

His smile was bright, his complexion calm, and the look in his eyes unchanged as he faced them.

To him, pulling the trigger was as casual as “lighting up a cigarette”…

Tang Fei thought the people opposite him were foolish.

You’ve got them surrounded, why not just go “bang, bang, bang” with your gun?

What does robbery after murder mean?

Kill first, loot later.

Once the people are dead, isn’t the treasure yours?

What now?

Are you supposed to throw down a white glove first?

Amateurs!

What was even more unbelievable to him was that the big-nosed guy named Simon actually asked them to throw down their Pulse Guns and back off into the lake…

Had he been drinking too much strong liquor on New Star and fried his brains?

How could he make such a ludicrous demand?

Guns disarmed, and you still think you’ve got a life left?

These people had never encountered Predators, those who never leave anyone alive.

If you run into them, you fight if you can, die if you can’t…

where’s the option to surrender?

Everyone was stupefied.

They couldn’t understand – they had the numbers, they had the two bastards surrounded.

How did he have the nerve to shoot?

It was precisely because of their astonishment that when Simon died, they were too slow to react, and ended up splattered with blood all over their faces and bodies.

Tang Fei’s shot didn’t just kill Simon; it also unluckily took out a man in black standing behind on alert.

The Energy Bullet exploded Simon and sent out an energy wave that tore a huge hole in the man’s chest.

His chest was gone!

Little Fatty had grown impatient.

Seeing his brother shoot first, he didn’t hesitate to pull the trigger.

Bang, bang, bang…

He missed.

He aimed for the middle of the crowd, but hadn’t expected the Pulse Gun’s recoil to be so strong, and it was his first time shooting – once he held down the trigger, he never let go.

He lost control of the barrel and ended up blasting a man at the edge of the group away.

They had said he should practice beforehand, but his brother wouldn’t let him…

It was only then that those people reacted.

A middle-aged man leaped forward and tackled the little girl with braids out of the way.

Others started to shoot back, and Tang Fei and Little Fatty had to roll on the ground, shooting and dodging bullets as they went.

Tang Fei’s surprise attack had shattered their well-prepared encirclement.

After firing a few more shots to scatter the crowd, he dragged Little Fatty toward the dense forest.

They couldn’t stay on the bare lake shore – without any cover, they would be easy targets for gunfire.

Entering the water would be a dead end; they wouldn’t stand a chance, just targets for a sweep of bullets.

But once they were in the forest, they would have the home-field advantage.

Then they’d show them why the flowers were so vivid…

Little Fatty took Tang Fei’s word to heart – during their escape, he even remembered to grab the Skull Hammer.

Not that Tang Fei wouldn’t remind him; after all, it was their biggest gain from this venture.

The red pills and that Beast Skin Scroll were still unknown, and in his eyes, as good as worthless.

As for the black cloak he was wearing, aside from being a little softer, he hadn’t discovered anything special about it.

Yan Xinyou was stunned.

According to the map, they left New Star for Old Land a few days ago, entering an area called Shennongjia.

After entering the mountains, they followed the map’s directions in search of Crescent Canyon, naturally finding nothing.

Not content with a fruitless trip, she had the Invisible Flying Device patrol the skies above Shennongjia, to scout for any suspicious people or areas of interest.

Then, on the footage sent back by the Invisible Flying Device, two young lads appeared, riding horses into the mountains with dopey smiles on their faces.

Mainly, Little Fatty’s face was quite large, occupying most of the screen, his smile particularly memorable…

So, in Yan Xinyou’s memory, the two men’s smiles were consistent.

Originally, Yan Xinyou hadn’t taken them seriously—a chubby kid, a skinny kid, both so young, what could they do?

But they had been wandering in the mountains for a long time without finding the entrance to the Ancient Tomb, which bored her, so she had someone track them with the Flying Device.

Pure dumb luck, an unintentional move brought them a surprise.

Tang Fei and Little Fatty actually entered the Ancient Tomb, and took something from it…

The rest was easy – murder, rob, then return to New Star to continue their extravagant and dignified lives.

How could things have gone so wrong?

What was the mistake?

Yan Xinyou’s head was spinning as she was dragged along by her guard leader, Gou Guangsong, running madly forward.

“Everyone, protect the miss and head toward the Star Disc,” Gou Wensong ordered as he fired back.

Once they boarded the Star Disc, things would be easy.

Whether they chose to flee immediately or use the Star Disc’s high-tech weapons to strafe and bomb, they would regain the absolute upper hand…

They didn’t cherish their first chance.

At this thought, he couldn’t help but glance resentfully at the wealthy young lady by his side.

According to his plan, they would have swarmed them after their emergence, disarmed, and killed them…

Why call out that their drinking style was like a dog’s?

Once killed, they’d be dead dogs anyway.

Curse them however you like.

Such carelessness gave them away, gave them the chance to react?

When one’s intelligence can’t keep up with their wealth, they have to pay a hefty price.

Like now!

Snap!

A guard next to them had their head chopped off.

“Controlling the sword with Qi…” someone shouted, “They are Cultivators.”

Gou Guangsong also saw the Dog Leg Knife spinning through the air, a one-hit-kill stroke that neatly took a head.

This kid was obviously a seasoned beheader.

What alarmed him even more was that it was difficult to cultivate on the Old Land, and under normal circumstances, it would be rare to find a Cultivator.

What was happening today?

Could it be that these two youngsters were not from the Old Land, but impersonators from a power on New Star?

Thinking of this, Gou Guangsong’s heart sank once more.

Considering his own responsibilities and the consequences of dereliction, Gou Guangsong shouted out loud, “Cultivators, stay with me to intercept the target, everyone else escort the lady back to the Star Disc.”

“Uncle Gou…” Yan Xinyou exclaimed in shock.

It wasn’t that she was worried about Gou Guangsong’s safety, but rather she felt insecure without Gou Guangsong at her side.

“Miss, go quickly, they only have two people, we will strike to intercept, so you have a chance to escape…” Gou Guangsong knew exactly what the young lady was thinking, so he shouted out loud.

Above New Star, Cultivators were revered.

However, the power to set prices was in the hands of these Financial Tycoons and the government.

Yan Xinyou hesitated no more and turned to run, with a dozen elite bodyguards holding Energy Guns surrounding her in the middle, escorting her towards the direction of the Star Disc.

Gou Guangsong and a few other Cultivators stopped in their tracks, ready to intercept Tang Fei and Little Fatty.

Thinking of Tang Fei’s unfazed shooting, Gou Guangsong felt a sudden chill at the bottom of his heart.

“This kid is ruthless!”

A fierce killing intent suddenly appeared, and Gou Guangsong raised his hand to shoot.

Clang!

The sound of metal striking metal rang out as the Dog Leg Knife sweeping towards them was shot and flown away.

Into the darkness, it vanished in an instant.

But this gave Gou Guangsong a signal, an opportunity to attack.

The Dog Leg Knife must have been retrieved, and the place where it disappeared was the enemy’s hidden location.

Gou Guangsong made a gesture to a bald man next to him, who nodded in understanding.

He skyrocketed off the ground, his body floated upwards, reaching the highest point above the forest.

From above, he aimed his gun down at the spot where the Dog Leg Knife had disappeared and opened fire.

Not until the Energy Gun was emptied did he stop pulling the trigger.

He looked down to see if he had turned those two kids into a honeycomb…

Boom!

An Energy Bullet flew over and blew his floating body into pieces.

Blood rained down from the sky.

“We’ve been tricked!”

Gou Guangsong realized in his heart that the drop point of the Dog Leg Knife was a decoy; from the position of the fired bullets, it was clear the enemy was at twelve o’clock.

However, the bald man had just shot in the direction of three o’clock.

What on earth did this kid grow up on?

So young, yet so cunning and deceitful?

The sudden encounter had turned into a game of psychological warfare.

“Everyone, gather up, don’t give them the chance to take us down one by one,” Gou Guangsong whispered.

Bang, bang, bang…

Bullets flew in from the six o’clock direction, with Gou Guangsong and the others diving to escape, but still, someone had an arm torn off by the energy blast.

“Ahh…” they screamed in pain.

Gathering together also made them more susceptible to the bombardment of Pulse Guns.

Moreover, the bullets came one after another, a relentless barrage.

Caught between a rock and a hard place!

Gou Guangsong knew they couldn’t go on like this; entering the forest meant entering the home ground of those two kids, magically appearing and disappearing with hit-and-run tactics, leaving them powerless to fight back.

Now, hidden by the darkness and the treacherous terrain, they couldn’t even find a trace of the enemy.

“Come out,” Gou Guangsong called out, “On the honor of a Cultivator, let’s have an open and fair fight to the death.”

No one answered.

Gou Guangsong tried to locate the two kids by their voices, but they didn’t fall for it.

Where was the vigor of youth?

That reckless boldness?

Gou Guangsong gathered his energy, letting his Yin Yang Qi reach out, blending himself with the cold wind, the air, and nature itself.

The chirps of birds, the sounds of insects, the movement of creeping animals.

All were under his “watchful eye.”

“Here it comes,” he shouted loudly, then cleaved with his knife straight ahead.

Bang!

Tang Fei’s Dog Leg Knife clashed with that long knife, and the sneak attack failed.

His body was sent flying back, shaking his arm which had gone slightly numb…

The old man’s got some tricks up his sleeve.
