Chapter 15: That’s Unbelievable
Jing Yan had a faint smile on his face.
From the Stone-spotted Tiger King's sudden strike to Lin Dongyang getting severely injured, Jing Yan had predicted it all. He simply picked a perfect moment to show himself.
Now one of the five warriors attacking the Stone-spotted Tiger King was seriously hurt. Even though he would survive with timely treatment, he could no longer participate in this fight. The five of them fought together with almost perfect teamwork, so losing any of them in a fight would seriously hamper their ability to take down their prey.
Stone-spotted Tiger Kings were almost as strong as Fourth-grade Spiritual Beasts. If a hunting group like Lin Qi's lost their excellent cooperation, it would be very tough for them to kill a Stone-spotted Tiger King. Losing one of the fighters would have a significant influence on their performance. Their best solution would be to get a new person to fill the spot.
"Jing Yan?"
Lin Qi got a better look at the newcomer's face and recognized Jing Yan.
In the past, Jing Yan had been a celebrity in Dong Lin City. Most warriors in the city knew who Jing Yan was—the genius of the city.
"What a surprise," Lin Qi thought immediately when he recognized Jing Yan. He also knew about Jing Yan's continuously falling rank. Jing Yan was only at the Third Heaven, and with a cultivation of that level, it was amazing that Jing Yan was still hanging around in the Blackrock Mountains. It was almost like he was looking to get himself killed. Not to mention that they were in the middle area of the Blackrock Mountains, not the outskirts.
Lin Qi took a cautious glance around after he saw Jing Yan, since he wasn't sure if Jing Yan was alone. Chances were that if Jing Yan showed up, there was probably a hunting squad from the Jing Clan somewhere nearby.
But he soon realized that Jing Yan was the only Jing Clan warrior present. Lin Qi secretly let out a sigh of relief.
Howl!
The Stone-spotted Tiger King didn't stop attacking just because Jing Yan showed up. Due to the reluctant absence of Lin Dongyang, the other four fighters were thrown off-kilter by the Stone-spotted Tiger King's renewed offensive.
