The Human Emperor (200-400)

C289: Killing Intent!

Sou!

Not too long after leaving the Duke of Liu Residence, an abrupt ruckus within the walls caught the duo's attention.

"Gongzi, that person has left the Duke of Liu Residence," Old Eagle said. He glanced at Wang Chong in astonishment, knowing that the latter's instincts were spot-on.

"Not bad! He realizes that something is amiss quickly!" A hint of commendation flashed across Wang Chong's eyes.

Right after he left the Duke of Liu Residence, the masked figure also left as well. He didn't think that there were too many people who possessed astute senses on par with him.

"Let's go and take a look!" Wang Chong beckoned Old Eagle and headed toward the area the masked figure was leaving from.

Sou!

A cold gale blew in the night sky. The masked figure leapt across the wall to escape from the Duke of Liu Residence.

Beneath his sleeves, his hands were clutched together tightly. His face was pale, and frustration filled his eyes.

Without a doubt, his operation had failed utterly.

Sou sou sou!

As soon as he landed on the other side, the masked figure immediately dashed toward the forest.

"Hmph! Brat, do you think you can get away?" a cold sneer sounded out, and a shadow suddenly emerged from the forest, standing right before the masked figure.

Astonished, the masked figure immediately tried to turn around and flee in another direction. However, yet another shadow surfaced from the darkness, blocking his path.

"Where do you think you are going?" Those two shadows were well-built, and appearing from their hiding spots, they didn't rush into taking down the masked figure. Instead, they slowly proceeded forward to close the encirclement, preventing the masked figure from escaping.

Even though the masked figure was completely clothed in black, the sneers from those two shadowy figures surrounding him seemed to reflect that his identity was no longer a secret.

"Not speaking eh? Do you think that you can conceal your identity just by remaining silent?" the brawny man leading the team chuckled with a cold edge to his voice.

"Let me tell you, you might have been able to fool others and enter Kunwu Training Camp under a different alias, your disguise won't fool our gongzi or old master. Lad, our old master knew that you would come here eventually."

Hearing those words, the composure in the masked figure's eyes finally cracked, revealing even deeper coldness and hatred.

"If you had been in Kunwu Training Camp, we would still be unable to do anything about you. But it is a pity that you simply refuse to give up despite all these years and adamantly charged right into our trap!" the brawny man sneered.

Weng!

In that instant, the masked figure's eyes turned crimson, and a savage aura reminiscent of a ferocious tiger emanated from him, inducing a strong sense of fear in those around him.

The brawny man had initially put on a haughty attitude, staring at the masked figure as if a cat toying with a mouse. However, under the overwhelming aura of the masked figure, a sense of discomfort abruptly crept onto his heart.

"Brat, how dare you look at me with such eyes? You sure must be tired of living! Since that's the case, allow me to send you on your way. Brothers, come out!"

Sou sou sou! In an instant, as if spirits materializing into existence, innumerable shadows appeared all around the forest, encircling the masked man tightly.
