Chapter 1431: 50/50 Confidence

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The Demonic Beast had already launched a full-scale attack.

Screams of horror filled the place.

“Ah! Help! Help!”

The young people with powerful backgrounds were able to defend themselves but only by the skin of their teeth. Those who with mediocre backgrounds, however, became targets of torment, unable to withstand a single blow!

Had their numbers been more than the Demonic Beasts, they could have hunted and killed the beasts. But right now, Demonic Beasts outnumbered human.

The result was as expected.

Amidst the screams, someone had their throats ripped apart, while others had their stomachs torn open. Some people even lost chunks of flesh. They had become food for the Demonic Beasts.

Every single second, someone would die. Limbs hacked off, bones broken, and crimson blood flowing like a swollen river after a rainy day. The safe zone was now a horror show – a Shura Batttlefield!

Fortunately, after every kill, the Demonic Beasts would stop for a moment, search the bodies for their storage bracelets, before continuing with the attack.

With that being said, this short duration of the search should not be underestimated!

Many people were able to steal away when the Demonic Beasts were taking a break.

Had the Demonic Beasts not stopped, but killed ceaselessly, all one million would all have been dead in a short time!

“Mr. Chen, what should we do now? We can’t keep running like that!” Dong Xiaowu asked, his voice thickened with fear.

“The Demonic Beasts must be looking for something important!” Chen Xiaobei said as he ran. “The Demonic Beast showed up when we arrived at the Overgrown Forest treasury. It was only after I took down the first wave of Beast Horde that they turned out in full strength and attacked at full force!”

Wenren Muyue gasped at the sudden realization, “That means the Demonic Beasts must be searching for something inside the Overgrown Forest treasury!”

“The treasury? But it was empty! There was nothing there!” Miao Yiyue scratched his head.

“I need to find out what the Demonic Beasts are looking for! That’s the only way to end this!” Chen Xiaobei immediately decided on a plan.

“Where would find the time to do that?” Wei Ruilong’s nerves were frazzled. “The Demonic Beasts are closing in. We will have nowhere to run to soon enough!”

Chen Xiaobei did not answer.

With the portals destroyed, the Northern Wilderness Temple search and rescue task force would not be able to arrive quickly enough.

The whole nest of Demonic Beasts were definitely much stronger than these under 30 year old human beings.

It was only a matter of time before all one million of them were completely wiped out!

Even Chen Xiaobei could not figure out a way to salvage the situation.

When they saw that their mainstay Chen Xiaobei did not know what to do, everyone’s faces fell, and they were filled with despair.

Death was now already within reach! Every one of them were about to become carcasses and skeletons on the ground. None of them would be lucky enough to escape this fate!

“Come with me! I know a place where you can hide!”

Just then, a melodious yet tough female voice said.

It belonged to a masked girl dressed in tight-fitting Ninja costume. She was waving at Chen Xiaobei, signalling for him to follow!

Even though her face was hidden behind the mask, Chen Xiaobei recognized her immediately.

It was her eye-catching, long, slender legs that gave her away!

He calves were tight and supple, and her thighs were smooth and full, giving her the perfect curves!

These two flawless pins could trump every other pair of legs under the sky!

It was these pair of legs that Chen Xiaobei recognized and knew that she was none other than the assassin he met not long ago, Linghu Shuang!

This girl had donned on a mask to avoid being recognized by Lu Changwei and Zhu Dachang.

She was willing to risk being identified for the sake of saving Chen Xiaobei.

It would seem that she was a person who placed importance on the spirit of loyalty.

“Everyone, come! Follow!” Chen Xiaobei waved to the people behind him, and then ran to catch up with Linghu Shuang. He made sure to lower his voice when he asked, “What are you doing here?”

“The Elite Hunting Competition is a public event!” Linghu Shuang also spoke hushly. “I cannot miss this chance to kill Lu Changwei!”

Chen Xiaobei looked at her, eyebrows raised. “What is it between you and Lu Changwei? What are your grievances that you came here to kill him!”

“It’s a long story! What’s more important now is to run for our lives!” Linghu Shuang shook her head. “Tell your people to shout aloud so that the others can also escape with us!”

“Everyone?” Chen Xiaobei gasped. “Are you saying that this hiding place you were talking about can accommodate 1 million people?”

“It’s a large canyon! It can fit everyone! There’s only one exit and entrance! Easy to guard and difficult to attack!” Linghu Shuang explained briefly.

“A canyon?” Chen Xiaobei’s eyes lit up. “Sister! What a marvellous idea! I will have a 50% chance to win this fight if everyone enters the canyon!”

“Win the fight? You? Stop kidding, alright?” Linghu Shuang did not believe that Chen Xiaobei had the ability to do that. “I’m leading everyone to the canyon so that my Sifu can come to rescue them! Enough nonsense! Hurry up and give them the instructions!”

“Er, alright!” Chen Xiaobei had no time to explain his plan.

He quickly did as Linghu Shuang told him, and made sure that everyone behind him was running and screaming at the same time, gathering those who were nearby them.

Right now, everyone was waist deep in despair. When they heard that there was place to hide, they all followed without a second’s hesitation.

Very quickly, the group grew in size, from a few hundred to ten thousand. In the end there were at least tens of thousands of people following Chen Xiaobei and Linghu Shuang.

“Did you see that? The entrance into the canyon is in front!” Longhu Xiang pointed ahead of them. “Everyone, hurry up! We are almost there! Once we get in, we can secure the entrance, and we’ll all survive!”

The whole group’s morale was raised at once, as if they had just spotted the dawn of hope.

“Oh no!” Linghu Shuang suddenly screamed. “There’s Demonic Beasts in front! A lot of Demonic Beasts! Stop! Everyone stop!”

No one slowed nor stopped, but they kept charging forward. Suddenly a large group of Demonic Beasts came out form the forest and blocked the entrance into the canyon!

“We cannot stop!” Chen Xiaobei called out. “If we stop now, the people behind will get hurt!”

“If we don’t stop, what do you plan to do? Are you going to fight with the Demonic Beasts at the front?” Linghu Shuang frowned. “But there are Diamond-rank Demonic Beasts among! If we fight them face to face, the first to die would be us!”

“Listen to me! Don’t stop! Continue to charge!” Chen Xiaobei focused his attention in front, putting more energy into his legs and moved ahead of the group.

“You! Do you want to die?” Linghu Shuang screamed.

She wanted to reach out and stop him but it was too late.
