Chapter 401: 0401SSS level Bai Xiong Ju Lu

Ye Qiu weaved through the woods, turning into a phantom shadow, tirelessly running.

The two qi traces behind him had locked onto him, and no matter in which direction Ye Qiu fled, they always managed to follow.

After several turns, Ye Qiu realized it was futile, being targeted by such experts, he simply couldn’t shake them off.

Soon, Ye Qiu noticed that there was one less qi mechanism behind him.

Just as he was puzzled, he abruptly halted because someone was ahead, smiling at him with a playful look in their eyes.

"I told you, you can’t escape," Bai Xiong had caught up from behind, and blocking Ye Qiu’s path was Ju Lu, whose speed had completely surpassed Ye Qiu’s.

His current state was that of transformation, a human head and a deer body, which explained his astonishing speed.

"Who are you?" Seeing that he couldn’t escape, Ye Qiu stopped running. At this point, with one expert in front and another behind, locking him in, there was no way he could escape. Should he attempt to flee again, he believed that they would strike him down the moment he lifted his foot.

This was a premonition, a judgment born from sensing danger.

"Naturally, we are here to take your life. You killed Adam, that half-rate soldier. Although we brothers did not like him, he was still a super warrior of the Kondgier family. Since you killed him, naturally we had to come after you," Bai Xiong explained frankly.

Ye Qiu’s thoughts stirred, his guess was almost correct—ever since he saw Ju Lu’s form, he had thought of the Kondgier family behind the beastly transformation!

"I didn’t expect such a martial arts genius to emerge from Huaxia, and so young too," Bai Xiong appraised Ye Qiu. Previously, he had only known about Ye Qiu from documents, but seeing him in person was far more concrete. What surprised him the most was that although Ye Qiu had chosen to run at first sight, now that he was caught up, Bai Xiong could see not a trace of panic in his eyes, an unyielding spirit that he almost admired.

"You both are from Huaxia, why would you stoop to being lackeys for others?" Ye Qiu asked.

"Lackeys? Kid, watch your language!" Ju Lu was very displeased, wanting to smash Ye Qiu with his deer hooves.

"Ju Lu, no need to hurry, he will die by our hands sooner or later. Since we’ve encountered a genius in the martial arts world, we don’t need to kill him so swiftly," Bai Xiong said, waving his hand to stop Ju Lu from acting immediately.

His gaze fixed on Ye Qiu, he said, "Young man, not everyone’s talent can reach the pinnacle of martial arts. Although we brothers have trained hard, it doesn’t mean we will become masters of martial arts. If it weren’t for the Kondgier family, perhaps we would still be insignificant pawns in the martials arts world."

"It was the Kondgier family who remade us, allowing people without talent like us to still achieve the dream of becoming strong."

"Do you know what we brothers hate the most?" Bai Xiong twirled the Blood Lotus on his wrist, his words seemed casual, but gradually his gaze shift, and his pupils slightly dilated.

"What we hate the most are geniuses like you. Why is fate so unfair? You people need only a short time to achieve what takes us a year of hard labor. I’m resentful and unconvinced. Now that we’ve overcome various difficulties to reach the height we’ve dreamed of, we have finally surpassed you so-called geniuses."

"Bai Xiong, why bother talking so much? Just kill him; we still have to report back," Ju Lu interjected. He didn’t want to reminisce about the past.

Bai Xiong shook his head and said, "I never liked those geniuses I faced before, but this young man here somehow pleases my eye. Since he’s going to die by our hands today anyway, what’s the harm in me rambling a bit? Rest assured, a dead man won’t reveal anything. We brothers have suffered so much for so many years; it can’t just rot within us. I hope someone knows all about this. Even though it’s a dead man who’ll know... what does it matter?"

Bai Xiong wasn’t in a hurry to kill Ye Qiu; instead, he seemed to want to vent his frustrations.

Upon hearing this, Ye Qiu understood Bai Xiong’s general idea. He felt that this guy was a bit extreme and stubborn. Talent couldn’t be changed, but that shouldn’t be a reason to willingly become a pawn for others, especially a foreign power. Even if it was for one’s own strength, the power gained still served others. A martial artist should pursue not just strength but also freedom. Without freedom, what good was strength?

Ye Qiu let out a cold laugh.

Bai Xiong frowned. "What are you laughing at?"

"Haha, I laugh at how you two brothers have lost sight of what’s important. Instead of being envious of others, why not work on improving yourselves? Talent is crucial, but you also fail to see the effort behind a genius’s success. Observing others with your narrow-minded views isn’t necessarily right. The martial path is indeed tough, but one should break through with a punch. You brothers have abandoned the martial path, transforming yourselves into neither human nor ghost, thinking you have attained the power you desired. In my eyes, that’s just a joke," Ye Qiu’s words instantly changed the expressions of Bai Xiong and Ju Lu.

Ye Qiu had bluntly stated that their martial beliefs were a joke, leaving the two unable to stay calm. The atmosphere surged with tension.

"Okay, okay... you say our martial path is wrong, then let me see what the correct martial path looks like," Bai Xiong spoke no further, fearing only more ridicule from Ye Qiu.

"Hmph, such self-righteous young people should just be killed. What ’Top Ten Warriors’ they talked about, but still, they fled in a wretched state when faced by me and my brother. As for you, you must die," Ju Lu spoke, releasing a deadly aura as his hands and feet turned into hooves, furiously pawing the ground as if about to charge at Ye Qiu.

Bai Xiong did not transform into a beast-man; he remained in his human form, but the aura emanating from him seemed as turbulent as winds and storms, the intense presence instantly covering a hundred meters radius.

This power made Ye Qiu’s heart sink to the bottom, the opponent’s strength seemed more fearsome than Adam’s.

However, Ye Qiu didn’t lose faith. No matter how powerful the opponent, he must fight for a chance to live.

It seemed he had no choice but to take them both on, two against one!

"You underestimate us too much, or rather, you have no idea how terrifying we brothers can be. Today, we will let you know that True Qi is not powerful. There’s a force far beyond what you have cultivated," said Bai Xiong. As he spoke, there was a loud bang, and his arms burst out of his clothes. What were human arms grew visibly larger, and countless black and white hairs sprouted from the skin, instantly turning into bear arms.

"How about that, scared yet?" Bai Xiong laughed aloud, shaking his arms and causing countless leaves to fall around him. The air seemed to be pushed away, layer after layer of blast waves spreading out continuously.

"This is the mighty power of the beast, how do you think it compares to your strength?"

"What True Qi? In front of the power of the beast, it’s all trash. You, a mere True Qi realm, consider yourself safe? Not even a legendary realm martial artist can stand against us brothers. Kid, be aware," Ju Lu said proudly. Now their years of frustration had vanished, and they were striking back at the martial arts world. Today, not only must they kill Ye Qiu to complete their mission, but they also intended to prove to the martial arts world that they, the brothers, were on the right path!

They were beast-men with legendary realm power. How many in the martial arts world could claim that? That was the confidence of Bai Xiong and Ju Lu!
