BXBX NOVEL Chapter 256 - I Really Want to Kill Someone!
Chapter 256: I Really Want to Kill Someone!
Tall mountain ranges filled the Outland, and there was no trace of human activity.
Suddenly, five airships approached from afar and gradually arrived above Ox Head Mountain.
The Ox Head Mountain was shaped like an ox’s head, hence its name. In the past, martial artists had once fought a brutal war here and defeated a type of dire beast Predator.
That war back then was extremely ruthless. Apart from the Sages, who were not involved, some of the other Meta-divine Realm and Divine Realm martial artists died in battle before those Predators were finally defeated.
From then on, although Ox Head Mountain was also deep in the Outland, there were not many dire beasts left. The human territory advanced by more than a thousand kilometers.
Although the Ox Head Mountain had a special significance, this place had yet to be developed by humans. It was uninhabited, and there were still large open areas below, giving it a slightly desolate appearance.
The five airships flew above Ox Head Mountain and landed. The cabin door of the airship opened, and five mysterious people in black robes and masks walked out.
“Number 131.”
One of the mysterious men in black robes said. His voice was obviously disguised and a little hoarse. It sounded very old, but no one could be certain of his age.
“Number 145.”
“Number 294.”
“Number 483.”
“Number 516.”
The five mysterious people in black robes all reported their enigmatic numbers. Their voices were all disguised, and even their gender was difficult to distinguish.
The five of them gathered together gave off a bizarre air.
“Numbers correct! I believe that everyone has received the mission?”
“The mission target is Lin Feng, who rose to fame some time ago! How could a mere Metamorphic Realm martial artist like him ascend to the Divine Realm so quickly?”
“Therefore, this is the goal of the mission. As usual, we are not allowed to casually inquire about each other’s true identities. We must listen to the leader’s orders. After the mission is successful, we are not allowed to snatch the spoils of war privately. Is everyone clear?”
The one who spoke was the mysterious person who was Number 131. He was the temporary leader of this mission.
“Heh, of course we know. We are all martial artists with status and authority, who oversee a region. We all know the severity of the consequences if our identities are exposed.”
The others nodded in agreement as well.
They were all Meta-divine martial artists in real life, who had high statuses and usually presided over a region. They were admired by countless martial artists, and viewed as heroes of humanity by countless people.
However, this was only what was on the surface. In private, they had all joined the dark organization called “Night Devil”.
The Night Devil organization was very secretive. No one knew where its headquarters were or how many members it had, let alone who its founder was.
It was like a cancer that thrived within the five major factions. Many of the upper echelons of the five major factions knew about the existence of the Night Devil, but they were powerless to do anything, and had no way to eliminate it.
The Nine Sages had even launched a large-scale investigation over this, but it was useless. The Night Devil was still hidden in broad daylight, among all martial artists.
Be it Meta-divine martial artists, Divine Realm martial artists, Metamorphic Realm martial artists, or even professional martial artists, there were people among them who had joined the Night Devil.
These martial artists were usually normal martial artists who fought fiercely with dire beasts to guard the frontline for humanity. However, once the Night Devil issued missions, things would be different.
Every once in a while, the Night Devil would issue some missions. These missions were either targeted at individuals or certain organizations. Once the missions were issued, those Night Devil members who met the mission requirements could accept the missions, and complete the missions together.
Hence, every time the Night Devil organized a mission, every Night Devil member would try their best to hide their true identities. None of them knew each other, and they would only gather together for the sake of a mission.
No one dared to expose their identities lightly. Once their true identities were exposed, it would almost spell death. The five major factions would never let any of the Night Devils off.
After completing the mission, Night Devil would send certain rewards for the mission to every Night Devil member who participated in the mission through special channels.
For instance, this time, Night Devil had issued a mission to capture Lin Feng, and the mission reward was Lin Feng’s secret!
When these five Night Devil members received the mission, the condition was that they were at least Meta-divine Realm martial artists. Then, they would receive comprehensive information on Lin Feng, detailed from childhood to adulthood.
Hence, these five Night Devil members knew Lin Feng very well.
As for what benefits there were for the founder of Night Devil?
It was obvious that the founder would be able to obtain the benefits of all the missions. After all, even the mission rewards were distributed by Night Devil.
It was not that there were no Night Devil members who tried to spy on the founder of Night Devil, but none of them succeeded. Instead, all of them had their identities as members of Night Devil exposed, and met miserable ends.
As the temporary leader of this mission, the Night Devil member who was Number 131 was actually just giving simple orders. These people did not necessarily obey him. They were just making do with each other temporarily to complete the mission.
“I believe everyone has seen Lin Feng’s information. He must have obtained some ancient legacy. It doesn’t cultivate Astral Power, but after the second life transition, one would be comparable to a peak Divine Realm martial artist! None of us know what his trump card is. Don’t be careless.”
“Even a lion uses its full strength when hunting a rabbit. We all know that.”
The temporary leader Number 131 nodded. Then, he looked at the time and said, “According to Night Devil’s intelligence, Lin Feng will be passing through Ox Head Mountain soon. Everyone, get ready.”
“Heh, don’t worry. We’ll give Lin Feng a huge surprise this time!”
The five Night Devils quickly hid, as if they had never appeared.
…
Ox Head Mountain.
In the airship, Lin Feng saw Ox Head Mountain. Normally, he might have stopped to admire the view, but he was not in the mood now.
Beep-beep-beep.
Suddenly, just as the airship was about to fly over Ox Head Mountain, an alarm sounded.
“Warning, warning, the airship is locked on by laser weapons!”
Swish.
Lin Feng lifted his head abruptly. Five dazzling lights shot over from the ground at once. They were terrifying laser weapons.
Lin Feng’s airship could not defend against five laser weapons at all.
Lin Feng’s gaze was cold. The cabin door of the airship suddenly opened, and he stepped out.
Boom.
Lin Feng’s arm suddenly extended like an octopus as he grabbed forcefully at the five lasers.
The terrifying lasers instantly exploded on Lin Feng’s arm, but Lin Feng did not move in the slightest. His body expanded to 30 meters tall, and was covered in a layer of gray armor as he stood in the void.
Only five laser weapons could destroy the airship, but they were like tickles to Lin Feng. They were completely useless.
Lin Feng was also doing this to protect the airship. He did not want the airship he had purchased at a huge cost to be destroyed just like that.
“You can come out now.”
Lin Feng swept his gaze below and stood with his hands behind his back.
As expected, as soon as Lin Feng finished speaking, five mysterious men in black robes flew up from below. All of them were wearing masks, and their black robes covered their entire bodies, making it impossible to see their appearances clearly.
“Who are you?”
“People who are here to kill you, of course! However, if you are willing to hand over the ancient civilization legacy you obtained, we can consider sparing you.”
The temporary leader Number 131 said in a hoarse voice.
Lin Feng’s eyes narrowed slightly as he swept his gaze across the five of them.
He understood now. These five people belonged to the “dark factions” that the Invincible Fist Sage had warned him about.
In this world, where light is, there darkness will be also. Even though the five major factions controlled the world and the Nine Sages suppressed everything, there were still martial artists who walked in the dark to commit immoral acts for their own selfish reasons.
But they wanted to intercept him at a time like this?
Lin Feng smiled. Killing intent boiled under his calm gaze, erupting like a volcano.
“Want to know something?”
Lin Feng laughed, his tone abnormally calm.
“I have to thank you guys, because I really want to kill someone!”
Lin Feng’s voice grew louder and louder, but in the end, it exploded like thunder. Endless killing intent erupted wildly like a volcano.
He needed to vent. The death of his second brother, Lin Hai, had already put Lin Feng on the verge of erupting. Now, he saw that these five mysterious martial artists in the dark were actually intercepting him to kill him.
His killing intent simply could not be suppressed any longer!
Boom.
Lin Feng’s body suddenly expanded, and a terrible aura surged in all directions. The afterglow of the setting sun shone on the forest like blood.
In the blood-red hue of the setting sun, killing intent soared!
