Tainted will

Chapter 11 Hunt

?Xuan mountain

An intense battle was taking place, nine youths were fighting with a pack of Hell wolves.

Howl!

A hell wolf roared and suddenly threw itself toward Su Ming. Its sharp claws refracted tiny rays of light.

The sword which shone in faint green light and the cold sharp claws of the hell wolf collided emitting a thunderous sharp metallic sound.

Both Su Ming and the hell wolf were thrown a couple of steps backward. A meter-wide crater appeared where they clashed.

Su Ming had already broken through to the 9th layer, Along with his outstanding talent and some assistance from the clan head his cultivation advanced rapidly.

At that very instant another hell wolf already jumped at him not allowing Su Ming a chance to relax. It moved fast as lightning.

Right now he was facing off against two high-grade tier 1 hell wolves at the same time. His companions were not idling around either, there were similarly fighting against mid-tier beasts. They were all 4th layer bone forging realm cultivators.

Even though the group of youths seemed pretty pathetic at the moment, The situation was not desperate, they could still hold on for some time. Su Ming who was fighting ferociously had a hidden trump card up his sleeve and there were also cultivators hidden in the shadows looking at their actions carefully.

As for Su Ming, he was waiting for the situation to get a bit more desperate so that once he uses his trump card it would leave a deeper impact on his followers' hearts. Now that he was someone destined to be the future clan head, he needed to have a group of capable individuals under him. These individuals will play an important role in his future. He needed to create a feeling of trust and dependence along with inferiority in their hearts.

"Try harder" not far away, Bai Ming appeared at a high point on a tall tree, staring downwards, his heart smirking.

"There are still too many wolves left, it's going to take at least ten more minutes. At that time the risks will be minimal. I will directly enter the battlefield to help them, I can't give them a chance to speak or they might reject my help." Bai Ming stood with his arms crossed, coldly glaring at the ongoing fighting. Patiently biding his time.

His plan to was enter the battlefield when the wolves would have suffered heavily. He would enter the battlefield hurriedly and fight courageously showing his heartfelt concern and once he does that, these youths would have to share their loot with him, that was only natural.

Others might choose not to repay him but Su Ming could not do that, what would happen when it is known that the hope of the clan is an ungrateful bastard. His reputation would go down the drain, And many would feel insecure about having him as their future clan head. There was much to lose for him, these were the restrictions placed by the righteous path.

As for Bai Ming he had no qualms about it, he couldn't care less. In his eyes, Reputation was merely a tool to be used as he pleased. If one day he feels like throwing it away he would do so without any regrets. The only thing that mattered was himself, as for others they could f*ck their mothers.

As it neared nightfall, the sun on edge of the horizon resembled blood melting into the earth.

"It's time, drifting steps" Bai Ming used his agility technique and dashed forward like a ferocious wild beast. He swiftly avoided all the trees in his direction. Within a few breaths of time, he was just a couple of meters away from entering the battlefield. He had an extremely worried look on his face.

Su Ming noticed the approaching Bai Ming, he was surprised for a second before having a sudden flash of inspiration when he saw the worried look on Bai Ming's face. He was just about to say something.

But Bai Ming was quicker than him as he shouted loudly "Brother Su, fear not I am here to help you." Bai Ming didn't give them any chance to speak as he almost entered the battlefield.

Su Ming was boiling in rage at Bai Ming's words, He cursed inwardly "bastard! what the actual fuck are you talking about!? merely four wolves are remaining. If you wanted to help, why didn't you come sooner? son of a bitch wants to take advantage of me! Hmph."

Bai Ming was coldly laughing in his heart, but on the surface he had a genuinely worried expression. If one didn't know any better they would praise his kind heart.

Bai Ming was just a few steps away from slashing down one of the wolves when he suddenly felt a tremendous force pressing him from the side.

Bam!

At the next second, he was sent flying for dozens of meters as he heavily crashed against a tree.

Due to the sheer force of the crash, the tree snapped in half, but Bai Ming was still rolling on the ground due to the momentum of the force. After rolling for another dozen meters he eventually came to a stop.

Puke.

Bai Ming tried to get up, but he could not help but vomit mouthfuls of fresh blood. An intense pain assaulted him, he had broken ribs and his entire body was aching in pain.

He was shocked to the core. He never expected such a thing to transpire, But he forcefully calmed down as he tried to make out what had just occurred.

But when he took a glance at the battlefield it just took him a second, he completely understood his dangerous situation.

The entire situation on the battlefield had changed in just a few seconds. There were individuals who were completely wrapped from head to toe in black clothing fighting with people who were dressed in the Ye clan's official battle attire. The youths in the middle were frozen in fear. As for the wolves, they escaped the moment these bloodthirsty fiends appeared.

"They are fucking assassins! Their target must be Su Ming. But which village do these assassins belong to? whatever, what does it have to do with me anyway. From the way they are fighting these people are undoubtedly determined to kill or be killed. I just happened to stand in their way that's all. Escape, I must escape from this place!" Bai Ming quickly analyzed and made up his mind.

He was not angry about the fact he was almost killed, he was instead thankful that he didn't die and there was even a hint of excitement flickering in his cold gaze.

These assassins only cared about Su Ming they totally ignored the other children, they were fighting like no tomorrow, as for the Ye clan members they were fully determined to protect Su Ming no matter the cost.

Both sides had two core formation realm experts and dozens of elemental realm experts, engaging in a fierce life-and-death battle. These assassins were quite the experts to not be found until the moment they struck.

Bai Ming was already dozens of meters away from the battlefield. Even though he was injured he gritted his teeth and began escaping.

But after just a minute had passed his steps slowed down and a cruel look appeared on his face "This is my opportunity."

Before taking out the low-grade spirit weapon from his storage pouch. Bai Ming smiled coldly, as his eyes shone with joy. He spoke in a low voice "He-he-he, let the actual hunt commence."
