Chapter 247 - 6 Murderous Edge
Stepping out of the long-abandoned village, Lu Hong followed an overgrown ancient path deeper into Rocky Mountain.
He scanned the surroundings warily, even a fool would know this was a perfect place for bandits to ambush, and the group that had been attacking members of the Nature God Sect mustn’t have been far from the village; otherwise, why would they strike so often?
Sure enough, relying on his sharp intuition, Lu Hong sensed faint vibrations in the ground nearby; someone was trailing him.
Lu Hong was in no hurry. In fact, he was curious to see what this group of bandits would try to do to him.
As he ventured further in, small stones kept tumbling down the valleys, signifying the increasing number of bandits.
It seemed that a group was waiting for him at the clearing at the outlet of the valley. Lu Hong strode toward it and saw a one-eyed muscular man sitting arrogantly on a simple stone stool, watching him with wild eyes while listening to his subordinates’ reports.
When Lu Hong came closer, the muscular man pointed his sword at him, "So, it was you who caused the losses of my men in Xi’an Village?"
"Are you their leader?" Lu Hong looked at the man, sensing that the muscular man was a Second-Transformation Peak expert.
The muscular man replied coldly, "Indeed, I am known as Murderous Edge. Will you take your own life, or shall I do the killing?"
"What’s the difference?" Lu Hong shrugged, "Seems like either way, I end up dead."
