Novel Full Chapter 427 Sneak Attack?
After receiving the mission from the old man, the 5 disciples from the Crimson Slayer Sect set off to scout the area around the Battle Maiden Sect’s Outer Court.
They knew just how dangerous this mission could be, and even if the old man hadn’t explained the dangers, they still would’ve been careful.
“Hey, Number One, what do you think about this mission? Don’t you think it’s a little too dangerous? I mean, I’ve heard stories about how crazy those from the Battle Maiden Sect are. If possible, I really don’t want to get involved with them.” Number Two, the second strongest, asked.
They decided to use an alias for this mission per the old man’s orders, and the simplest one is to just go from Number 1 to Number 5, with Number 1 being the strongest and Number 5 being the weakest.
“I don’t know. I’ve never fought against anyone from the Battle Maiden Sect, but I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t interested.” Number One responded with a grin.
The other four members sighed seeing this but didn’t say anything else. They knew their leader liked to fight, or more accurately, he liked to kill and use the blood of his victims to boost his cultivation. The more talented the person he kills, the better the benefits.
So, it would make sense that he’d be looking forward to fighting with talented women. Maybe he’ll even get to have a taste of her before giving her over to the old man.
“Hehehe~” Number One laughed creepily, which sent chills down the other’s spines.
“You know we aren’t going there to kill anyone, right? We are only supposed to capture her. Also, don’t you remember the warnings the old man gave us? If even he’s telling us to be mindful of our target, then that means we need to be careful.” Number Two reminded everyone.
“Tsk.” Number One just clicked his tongue in annoyance, but even he had to agree.
That old man has quite the reputation in the Sect, so not taking his words seriously would be utter foolishness.
A few hours went by, and eventually, they were about ended up near the area where Zander and Mira fought with one another.
“Alright, everyone, let’s stick together! Our priority right now is not to capture the target but to scout out the area, learn the target’s habits, and attack when her guard is at its lowest!” Number One ordered.
The others nodded and spread out a little, but only so much that they were still within range of one another.
Almost two weeks went by like this, and during this time, they had spotted Mira quite a few times, but they were unable to go in because there was always another disciple not too far away.
The old man told them not to cause any unnecessary casualties, so they were forced to wait until Mira was completely alone.
Fortunately, their waiting paid off, and only a day later, Mira wandered a bit further away from the Outer Court than she usually does, away from all her fellow disciples.
The men couldn’t help but lick their lips at her drop-dead gorgeous body, and even though she wore a mask all the time, they were sure that she was a beauty underneath.
How could she not be beautiful? With that kind of body and is related to foxes, there’s absolutely no way she isn’t a beauty!
“It looks like we’re having fun tonight, boys! Hahaha!” Number One laughed as he imagined himself on top of Mira.
The others also chuckled as their eyes overflowed with lust.
Although they were still a bit cautious about Mira, it wasn’t nearly as much as when they first appeared outside the Battle Maiden Sect.
Disregarding Mira’s low cultivation, if they were to only take into account her skills, they wouldn’t say that she’s anywhere near strong enough to contend with them.
During this time, Mira has only used her scythe and nothing else. Not only that but she’s only fought Low and Mid-Stage Rank 6 Beasts. With only that much strength, there’s almost no way she can deal with their group, even if she has some sort of special technique.
However, suddenly, for some reason, Mira began running in their direction. At first, they didn’t think much of it but seeing how she didn’t stop, they grew skeptical.
“Hey, do you think she knows we’re here?” Number Three asked.
“Impossible! We’ve been here for over two weeks, and she’s never discovered us. Why would she all of a sudden know where we are? She could just be trying to make it to her hunting ground as fast as she can, and it just so happens to be in this direction.” Number Four said.
The others couldn’t help but nod at his conclusion, but Number One couldn’t shake this suspicion that maybe they weren’t as sneaky as they thought they were.
His suspicion was then proved when his eyes met the murderous crimson eyes of their target. For some reason, he felt a chill run down his smile, and his mind went blank for a second before quickly regaining his wits.
“Shit!! We’ve been discovered! Fortunately, she’s coming to us, so be sure to go all out!” Number One yelled and charged out.
“What?!”
“Impossible!”
“How did she discover us?!”
The others yelled back, but they still followed Number One. He was the leader and strongest of the group, so they were obligated to listen to him. Still, they found it rather hard to believe that they were spotted so easily.
“Just shut up and prepare for battle! It doesn’t matter if she knows where we are. We outnumber her, and our strength is higher! Go all out from the state! We don’t want to drag this out and risk other disciples coming over to check out the noise!” Number One ordered while unsheathing his sword.
“Yes, Leader!”
The others took out their swords as well and made their way toward Mira.
Since their leader told them to go all out from the start, they began channeling their Qi outside their bodies to use all kinds of Fire Elemental abilities.
Flames swirled around each of their swords, except for Number One, who had both his arms and his sword covered in flames.
The surrounding temperature immediately skyrocketed, but Mira didn’t stop running at them.
Oddly enough, Mira did nothing to try and protect herself from the flames. This confused them greatly, but they didn’t have any time to think about it as in just a few seconds, Mira was within attack range.
However, before they could attack, they heard the girl’s melodious but, at the same time, murderous voice.
“I could feel your lust from all the way back in the Sect. I came out here to check it out, but it turns out I only found a couple of horny dogs. Sigh… And here I thought I’d be able to fight something other than beasts. Oh well. Even if you are beasts, I still need to punish you for violating my sacred body with your filthy dog eyes.”
Veins popped in all their foreheads, listening to this weakling of a girl calling them dogs, but they were still a bit weary of her. Anyone who could detect them from so far away was anything but normal. That, combined with the words of the old man, forced them to reevaluate the young woman in front of them.
Unfortunately for them, their opponent wasn’t one to sit around and wait for them to get comfortable. So, without warning, Mira immediately attacked the weakest member!
