Chapter 1408: Half a Step Ahead

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Rumble! Rumble!

At Lu Changwei’s command, the combat formation was formed, and True Qis and Ethereal Forces were manifested at the same time.

All at once, hundreds of individually exerted energy began to set in motion in accordance to the distinct arrangement of the combat formation.

The energies began to expand and amalgamate, like rivers converging into an ocean, aggregating as one.

“Formidable Yin Aqua! Slay the king and sun!” Lu Changwei roared.

The cluster of energy had gathered above his head and was interacting with the water elements in the surroundings to form a giant aqua sword!

“Attack!!” Lu Changwei shouted and the giant aqua sword plunged towards the Diamond Armor Mythical Bear.

For a moment, the colors of the skies changed.

A whipping 300,000 combat power shook the place. It was only the Sword Qi but the ground was already beginning to crack. If the sword cuts down, the ground would be sliced into two.

“Roarrrr! Ahhh!”

When the formidable Diamond Beast King noticed the imminent danger approaching, it let out a cry of alarm.

Zing!

The sword fell and pierced through the Diamond Armor Mythical Bear’s heart from the back and into ground!

Fresh, warm blood sputtered everywhere, and the mythical bear fell onto the ground like a mountain crumbling. It did not even get the chance to scream in pain.

The powerful Diamond Armor Mythical Bear was helpless against the 300,000 combat power strike!

Lu Changwei willed it and the giant aqua sword vanished into thin air.

Immediately at once, hundreds of cultivators broke into applause and cheers of victory.

“My god! The Lu family’s Yin Aqua King Slaying Battle Formation is just too powerful! We just seckilled a Diamond Beast King!”

“That was awesome! Now that is what real hunting is all about. All those people in the safe zone are so damn weak! How lame!”

“Cool! Cool! Cool! With this Yin Aqua King Slaying Battle Formation, we can continue deeper into the Ocean Forest. As long as we don’t meet a 5-star Legend Demonic Beast, we’ll be fine!”

“Wow, if we continue like this, we’ll have the ultimate harvest in five days! These are the perks of following Master Wei! Hahaha!”

This victory had strengthened the hearts of everyone in the team and affirmed their decisions to follow Lu Changwei.

The smiles on Qin Luo and Wei Ruilong were broad as they praised the prowess of the Yin Aqua King Slaying Battle Formation.

When Dong Xiaowu realized that they were safe and had nothing to worry about, he began to calm down and was no longer anxious.

Even Miao Yiyue praised, “With this combat formation, we really might have a chance at winning! We made the right decision to follow Lu Changwei!”

At a distance away, while the others were fresh with excitement, Chen Xiaobei and Wenren Muyue were deep in thoughts, as their brows furrowed.

“Lady Wenren, what are you thinking about?” Chen Xiaobei asked.

Wenren Muyue chewed on her lip and said in a soft voice, “I’m thinking about why the Lu family who had always put their interest above others, would share this Yin Aqua King Slaying Battle Formation with everyone else.”

Chen Xiaobei’s eyes lit up when he heard this. “Lady Wenren, you are very wise! The Lus are never solicitous for nothing! They must have had some sort of selfish, evil intent! Amongst all these people, you are the only one who noticed this incongruity! The others seem to be still blinded!”

“Mr. Chen probably saw through it too, right?” Wenren Muyue asked.

“Me?” Chen Xiaobei chuckled. “What did I see? If you had not mentioned it, I would not have noticed it either.”

“Mr. Chen, my father had mentioned this several times! You are part of our family now! You can pretend in front of other people but there’s no need to act dumb in front of me.” Wenren Muyue said firmly. “I am very sure that you are an extraordinary person! Not only were you already aware of the problem, you probably figured it out way more than I have!”

Chen Xiaobei shrugged, keeping up his poker front, but inside, he was surprised by how accurate this girl’s intuition was!

The fact was that Chen Xiaobei had already seen through everything. He had already guessed the Lu family’s conspiracy.

With such a powerful combat formation in hand, Lu Chanwei and his posses alone were more than enough as a team. He had only invited Dong Xiaowu and the others so that he could increase the power of the formation.

On the surface, he made it look like he had come to hunt and kill as many high-ranking Demonic Beasts as possible, but the real reason behind it was that he wanted to borrow their strengths to break open the door to the Overgrown Forest Hidden Treasure!

With the key missing, the Lus only solution was to use force to get the hidden treasure.

Because of the hunting competition, the elders of the Lu family were unable to make a trip to Overgrown Forest planet. That was why they decreed Lu Changwei to recruit all the other young masters – to help him force the door open!

Once they opened the door to the hidden treasures, they could then get a confirmation as to whether there really were treasures inside. Then Lu Changwei would contact the Ninth Young Lord that Lu Mingjun had mentioned earlier, and present the whole treasure to him.

The key Chen Xiaobei was holding would be then useless.

It was undeniable that the Lu family’s plan was very cunning indeed.

If he had not gone with Lu Changwei, by the time Chen Xiaobei found the hidden treasure, it would have been emptied out already.

The Lu family would never have suspected that Chen Xiaobei had the key to the hidden treasure and had been following Lu Changwei.

Chen Xiaobei had analyzed all the clues and worked out the Lu family’s entire conspiracy.

The Lus thought they could get to the hidden treasure on a first come first serve basis, but they did not know that Chen Xiaobei was half a step ahead of them!

At least before they reached the hidden treasure, Chen Xiaobei still had time to come up with a plan to intercept the Lu family’s plan.

After that, the entire team under Lu Changwei’s lead continued to venture deeper into the forest.

The deeper they went, the stronger the Demonic Beasts they faced. So, they began to slow down their pace.

After a few battles, the sky began to darken.

“Everyone, let’s take a break!” Lu Changwei announced. “The sun will set soon. Let’s set up camp here tonight, and we’ll continue our journey tomorrow morning!”

“Awww, no!” Qin Luo protested. “We are all still full of energy! We don’t need to rest at all!”

“Yeah! Yeah! We were just getting in the groove! Let’s continue!”

Wei Ruilong was very eager.

“You are all very energetic but I’ve used this formation many times and I’m very tired. I need to sleep!” Lu Changwei said firmly.

The others had nothing to say. After all, without the Yin Aqua King Slaying Battle Formation, no one dared to venture deeper.

So, they did as they were told and set up camp.

Chen Xiaobei was excited to see this.

“This is my chance!”
