Martial God Asura

Chapter 6000: King Ant Tribe

“How did they teleport so far away?” Qin Hanwu felt incredulous. 

Teleportation energy only transported one within the boundaries of a realm, but the Ancient Era’s race had already left the realm. Judging from their traveling speed, they appeared to have already entered a teleportation passageway. 

This bewildered him. No one could construct a teleportation formation that led into the middle of a teleportation passageway! 

There was another possibility too. 

It could be that an extremely powerful entity capable of traveling at speeds comparable to teleportation passageways was taking the Ancient Era’s race to safety. 

But that didn’t make sense either. There was no reason for Xia Xingchen to go through all that trouble if they had such a powerful entity backing them. The powerful entity could have stepped in and eliminated all of them before leaving with the Ancient Era’s race.

“What’s going on?” Qin Hanwu was bewildered.

It was too late for him to pursue Xia Xingchen and the Ancient Era’s race, especially since he couldn’t precisely locate their whereabouts anymore. For the tbeing, he decided to return to the underground world. 

His face darkened the moment he returned. 

To his shock, the underground world had suffered severe damage. The Heavenly DImmortal Sect’s experts were all trapped inside a barrier, and the others couldn’t rescue them even if they wanted to.

Qin Hanwu destroyed the barrier with a casual flick of his finger before angrily questioning, “What’s going on here?”

The freed experts quickly kneeled.

“Milord, we have fallen for their ploy!” an elder cried before explaining the situation.

After Qin Hanwu rushed out of the underground world to chase after Xia Xingchen, a powerful world spiritist possessing strength nearing that of pinnacle True Dragon suddenly appeared and constructed an isolation formation to prevent transmitting any information to Qin Hanwu. 

To their shock, the members of the Ancient Era’s race were still here, just that they were hidden by a concealment formation. 

Xia Xingchen was merely a decoy to lure Qin Hanwu away!

With Qin Hanwu gone, this powerful world spiritist first subdued all of the Heavenly DImmortal Sect’s experts, took their treasures, and imprisoned them before taking the members of the Ancient Era’s race with her. 

“Xia Xingchen, what are you up to? Are you planning to sully our sect’s reputation through that Ancient Era’s race?” Qin Hanwu looked at his compass and confirmed that it was impossible to locate the whereabouts of the Ancient Era’s race. He clenched his jaws in anger. 

He regretted having acted so rashly. If only he had taken out the compass earlier to check the whereabouts of the Ancient Era’s race, he wouldn’t have fallen for Xia Xingchen’s trap. 

Little did he know that it wouldn’t have made a difference even if he had activated the compass. Chu Feng had taken that variable into account too. 

While there was not enough tto remove the imprints on the Ancient Era’s race, they could still construct a formation to temporarily seal off the imprints, so that their whereabouts couldn’t be tracked. 

That was why Xia Xingchen kept eyeing an hourglass while escaping. The hourglass indicated how long the sealing formation would be effective. 

Even so, to buy more tfor Chu Feng and the others, she continued baiting Qin Hanwu even after the sand in the hourglass ran out. It was only when her speed enhancement formation was about to wear off that she invoked the teleportation formation to escape. 

By then, it was already too late for Qin Hanwu to salvage the situation.

… 

Chu Feng and Huahua spent days traveling through an ancient teleportation formation with the Ancient Era’s race, removing their imprints in the meantime. It was only when they thought they were a safe distance away did they finally stop at a nearby realm. 

The countless members of the Ancient Era’s race looked at Chu Feng and Huahua with grateful eyes. Knowing that they were finally safe now, they decided to part ways here. 

“Can you show us your true appearance? It’s fine if it’s inconvenient for you to do so,” the chief of the Ancient Era’s race asked.

“It’s inconvenient for her to do so, but it’s fine with me.” Chu Feng removed his disguise and revealed his true face. 

“You must be Lord Chu Feng. I’d have never thought that you’d be the one to save us. It’s our honor to be saved by you,” the chief of the Ancient Era’s race said. 

The other members of the Ancient Era’s race murmured among themselves too. Even though they had been trapped in the underground world, they had still heard about Chu Feng through the discussions of the Heavenly DImmortal Sectmembers. 

“You might have saved us, but we made a deal beforehand. I won’t treat you as our benefactor,” the boy named Xin Wang said.

No one from the Ancient Era’s race dared to criticize the boy despite his impolite words, including their chief. 

Chu Feng wasn’t surprised to see that. Over the last few days, he could tell that the ‘chief’ position was just a formality; the boy was the highest-ranking person in this Ancient Era’s race. He also didn’t think that the boy was being disrespectful, as it was true that they were merely working together, and both sides had benefited from the deal. 

“However, you removing the imprints on us wasn’t part of the deal, so I still owe you a favor,” the boy suddenly added.  

Chu Feng chuckled. He stretched his fist out toward the boy and said, “It was a pleasure working with you.”

The boy was initially startled, but then a smile emerged on his face. It was Chu Feng’s first tseeing him smile. He bumped fists with Chu Feng and replied, “It was a pleasure working with you too.”

“Shouldn’t you owea favor too? I helped remove the imprints too,” Huahua interjected.

“I don’t owe you a favor, but you owe him a favor,” the boy said.

“What do you mean by that?” Huahua was confused. She thought that Chu Feng had secretly shared their experiences with that boy. 

What the boy said next made her realize that she was overthinking it. 

“If not for Chu Feng, the two of you would have broken your promise and not helped us, but neither of you can bear the consequences of that. You can say that Chu Feng saved your lives,” the boy said. 

“Eyy, you rude little brat! You aren’t in a position to threaten me. If not for us, you would have been killed by the Heavenly DImmortal Sect!” Huahua was dissatisfied.

The boy paid her no heed and turned to Chu Feng. “We aren’t just an Ancient Era’s race; we are the King Ant Tribe.”

Leaving those words behind, the boy entered the teleportation formation with his tribesmen.
