Chapter 396: List 0395 ranked tenth

The Sky Demise Mercenary Group could rank in the top ten among underground world mercenary groups, yet such an existence was still slain by one person.

"It seems this Ye Qiu is not easy to deal with!" someone murmured. The Sky Demise Mercenary Group had gambled their lives for the bounty and lost, and although this had caused quite a stir among many people, no one was filled with righteous indignation over the death of the mercenary group.

If you want to kill for bounty, then you must be prepared to be killed. In the underground world, such things are commonplace.

"They were just a mercenary group at the bottom of the list, wiped out by someone; it just shows lack of strength. If one of the top three mercenary groups had taken action, not to mention a small fry like Ye Qiu, even attempting to hunt down the King of Assassins would not have been impossible," said someone nonchalantly, insisting that Ye Qiu’s strength might not be that great.

"This guy has taken out Sky Demise, I believe the underground world will soon have a new ranking. Let’s see how high he can get."

Three hours later, Ye Qiu’s name appeared on the underground world’s threat level list, ranking fifteenth, from Hua Xia.

As soon as the threat level list was released, the masters of the underground world were astonished. Although ranking fifteenth might seem far back, one must know that this is a global ranking of top masters, including top Assassins, masters of swordsmanship, experts in boxing, and Indian yogi masters. Each one of them is dangerous enough to rival a small army. For Ye Qiu to break into the top twenty was absolutely defying the heavens, especially since all the information about him was previously a blank slate—he was a master who had emerged out of nowhere.

Although the threat level list is not the most authoritative, for a long time, many people have relied on it to judge the strength of those listed.

"To rank fifteenth, I would like to see on what basis they decided that." Some people were flipping through the news of the rankings, clicking on the details.

The description of Ye Qiu’s strength was not lengthy: he single-handedly annihilated the Sky Demise Mercenary Group and is suspected of killing an SSS-ranked mutant beastman Fighter.

Many people realized why Ye Qiu was placed fifteenth after seeing this. Annihilating Sky Demise was not enough to push him to the fifteenth spot; what was most crucial was the death of the SSS-ranked mutant beastman, and what’s interesting is, on the threat level list, they used the word ’suspected’ to describe it, clearly they were also unsure of Ye Qiu’s true strength. After all, Adam belonged to the top ten, and if there was solid evidence that Ye Qiu was the one who killed Adam, then undoubtedly, Ye Qiu would replace Adam’s position, becoming a newly rising dangerous entity.

But nobody knew of the encounter between Adam and Ye Qiu. If the Condor-Gir family had issued a bounty, then perhaps no one would even know of a figure like Ye Qiu.

As for whether Ye Qiu really was the one who killed Adam, there was a lot of speculation from the outside world. Many people were puzzled; they had never heard of such a master as Ye Qiu before, as if he had popped out of thin air.

And so, with the temptation of a hefty bounty, many people set their sights on Ye Qiu.

The death of Sky Demise did not deter everyone, although some people backed off, a part of them persisted in searching for Ye Qiu’s whereabouts.

Ye Qiu was lying on a tree branch, concealing all his True Qi, as if he had returned to those days when he was in the mountains.

However, this tranquility was soon disrupted again; someone had found this place, right below where Ye Qiu was.

"Is this where Sky Demise met their demise?" A figure surveyed the surroundings and murmured softly.

Whoosh!

Then another person appeared, seeing someone there, the latter said, "It seems you too wish to kill that Ye Qiu and claim the bounty."

"And what of you? Just a nobody, if you say you killed Adam, I wouldn’t believe it. Hundreds of millions in bounty, it’s worth more than killing dozens of people, naturally, I came to try my luck."

"But Sky Demise was indeed killed by him, are you confident you can defeat Sky Demise?" the latter asked.

"The strength of Sky Demise ranked mid-tier at best. If it’s one-on-one, I have no fear, and I believe Ye Qiu also capitalized on a good opportunity to succeed," came the reply.

Hearing this, the man who appeared later laughed, "Don’t tell me you are unaware of the recent change on the threat level list?"

"Oh? Are you saying Ye Qiu made it onto the list?"

Hm?

Abruptly, Ye Qiu, perched above, pricked up his ears; threat level list? He had never heard of such a list.

Perhaps it emerged after he had left the world of assassins, Ye Qiu thought as he listened closely to the conversation between the two men. When he heard that he was ranked fifteenth, he couldn’t help but smile, "It seems, many people are still doubting my strength."

However, Ye Qiu didn’t mind. Although the Adam he had killed wasn’t in his normal state, it was still he who had made the move, merely under uncontrollable transformation.

But Ye Qiu was confident that with his current strength, as long as it wasn’t a master of the legendary realm, he could handle almost anyone.

Of course, there was always a concern in Ye Qiu’s heart.

The Kondgil family had three SSS-ranked beast-transformers, and Adam was only the weakest among them. If the other two were to appear at the same time, Ye Qiu wasn’t sure if his transformed self could match them.

Ye Qiu was apprehensive and didn’t want to rely on his powers after transformation unless absolutely necessary. Although his strength increased drastically, he became a different person who couldn’t distinguish friend from foe.

Ye Qiu was currently in the latter stages of the True Qi realm. The reason he hadn’t left the mountains was to use those coming after him to help him reach the peak realm.

As one progresses in the True Qi realm, it becomes increasingly difficult, and each step requires an immense amount of effort, akin to grinding water.

Ye Qiu had been stuck in the later stages of the realm for many days. If he could reach the peak realm, he believed that he would be able to break through the legendary realm before turning thirty.

Ye Qiu’s martial heart aimed not only for the True Qi realm but for the highest realm of all.

Under the tree, the two men who had come for Ye Qiu exchanged a few words and prepared to leave. Ye Qiu, who had been listening from the tree, suddenly jumped down in front of them.

The two men were startled because they hadn’t sensed Ye Qiu’s presence at all. The sudden appearance of someone made anyone jump with fright.

"May I ask who you are, and why are you blocking our path? Could it be that you’re also here to kill Ye Qiu?"

Ye Qiu smiled faintly, "I’m not here to kill Ye Qiu, because I am Ye Qiu."

Upon hearing this, the two men’s eyes widened in shock. They hadn’t expected the person they had been searching for to suddenly appear in front of them and reveal himself as Ye Qiu.

The two men facing Ye Qiu, although not familiar with him, looked at each other and instantly agreed to join forces against Ye Qiu.

The fact that Ye Qiu could appear silently in front of them truly made them wary, so they prepared to team up.

Five minutes later,

There were two more corpses on the ground, and Ye Qiu had left the scene.

When people discovered that the two dead men were well-known powerhouses from the underworld, their eyes widened in disbelief.

Were they also killed by Ye Qiu?

The danger ranking list, after a lapse of two hours, boosted Ye Qiu’s rank forward once more, placing him in the tenth position.

In the detailed annotation, Ye Qiu was described as follows: The Heaven Slaying Devil, the Exterminator of the Underground Fist King Wansen, the Fighter Lips, and the one who executed the SSS-ranked beast-transformer Adam!

The danger ranking list had acknowledged that Adam was killed by Ye Qiu! As Ye Qiu rose to the tenth position, people were shocked by the recognition of Ye Qiu’s strength implied by the list!

Now, those who still wanted to claim the billion-dollar bounty had to consider the consequences of going after someone like Ye Qiu, a top ten powerhouse.

And Heaven Slaying Devil, Wansen, Lips, they served as a cautionary tale.

Ye Qiu’s reputation surged once again!
