Myth Beyond Heaven

Li Qiang and Gui Zu returned to the original position and glanced at each other while shaking their heads, indicating they didn't find anything. 

"Where is Qiao Fan?" Li Qiang frowned and looked in the direction that Qiao Fan left.

Gui Zu's expression changed. He cursed. "That bastard has escaped!"

Li Qiang's face turned unsightly immediately. He quickly looked around and shouted. "Young Master Wang, Qiao Fas has escaped. What should we do now?"

In the far distance, Wang Jue heard this and couldn't help scolding. "These idiots." He glanced at the formation's eyes below his foot. He pondered before sending a sound transmission to Li Qiang and Gui Zu. "Yun Lintian could probably guess something and decide not to show up. You can contact him again. As for Qiao Fan, I will deal with him later."

As Wang Jue finished his sentence, the transmission jade on his waist suddenly lit up. He picked it up, and his eyes narrowed slightly. A cold smile appeared on his face as he received the connection.

"Young Master Wang, where are you?" Li Na's voice rang out from the other side.

"Me? I'm in the south direction. What about you?" Wang Jue replied.

"Is that so? What a pity. I'm heading toward north." Li Na's voice resounded again.

"North?… That's great. Our three fellow werewolves are over there. You can try to contact them. They are Li Qiang, Gui Zu, and Qiao Fan. It's better if you form a team with them." Wang Jue responded. His eyes flickered slightly as he stared at Li Qiang and Gui Zu in the distance.

"Understood." Li Na replied and hung up the connection.

"Li Na… You can't blame me for this. I have no choice but to kill you." A cruel sneer appeared on Wang Jue's face. His right foot was placed firmly on the formation's eyes while his Spiritual Sense spread out like a spider-web, trying to find Yun Lintian.

"Now eighteen werewolves left." Yun Lintian patted his hands while looking at Qiao Fan's headless corpse on the ground. 

At first, he wanted to make use of Qiao Fan, but he didn't want to take a risk anymore after experiencing the first night. The day and nighttime cycle were entirely controlled by Hongyue. What if she suddenly changed it to daytime after a few minutes of nighttime?

Yun Lintian produced a fireball and threw it on Qiao Fan's remains. Seeing it turned into ashes, Yun Lintian shifted his gaze in Li Qiang's direction and moved forward.

A while later, he arrived before the formation node earlier and secretly opened the concealing formation again. This time, Yun Lintian didn't intend to modify it but instead added another formation around it.

It took him ten minutes to finish his work. After confirming the newly added formation was working fine, he came out of the concealing formation and walked toward Li Qiang.

At this moment, Li Qiang looked at the transmission jade with hesitation. Earlier, he prepared to contact Yun Lintian, but he felt it would be too suspicious. Hence, he chose to wait for a while before making another contact.

Just as he was about to contact Yun Lintian, he suddenly heard Gui Zu's exclamation. "He's here."

Li Qiang's pupils shrank. He turned around and looked at Yun Lintian's silhouette nervously.

"Li Qiang?" Yun Lintian pretended to be surprised while walking toward Li Qiang. He glanced at Gui Zu and said. "You are… Gui Zu? Great! I don't have to waste my time finding you."

"S-senior Brother Yun, please spare me." Li Qiang said pitifully. However, he kept cursing Wang Jue in his heart… What is he doing? Why hasn't he made a move yet?

"What are you talking about? Am I that scary?" Yun Lintian grinned.

Li Qiang was speechless… If you are not scary, then who is?

"What's the meaning of this, Li Qiang!? Did you call him here?" Gui Zu raised his voice. Shouting at Li Qiang angrily while distancing himself.

"I can't help it." Li Qiang smiled wryly.

Yun Lintian suddenly chuckled and said. "Both of you have to practice more. Your acting is too stiff. Especially you, Gui Zu. You should have learned more from your Senior Brother Zhao."

The expressions of Gui Zu and Li Qiang changed instantly. They immediately realized Yun Lintian had long seen through their plan. 

Without hesitation, Gui Zu released all of his power and rushed out like an arrow. He didn't care about Wang Jue anymore. 

Seeing this, Yun Lintian smiled faintly. "If it's nighttime, then you may have a chance to escape….F*ck!"

Before Yun Lintian could finish his sentence, the sky suddenly darkened, and the moon immediately appeared. Everything happened in a split second, causing Yun Lintian to curse aloud. 

Gui Zu became ecstasy instantly. His speed soared rapidly. In a blink of an eye, he had appeared two kilometers away from Yun Lintian now.

F*cking Hongyue! Yun Lintian ignored the dazed Li Qiang and chased after Gui Zu with Shadow Step. 

A few seconds later, Yun Lintian managed to draw closer to Gui Zu and launched Dragon Fist.

Roar—

The mighty dragon's cry invoked Gui Zu's inner fear. When he glanced back, the virtual fire dragon had already appeared three meters behind him with its mouth opened wide.

Gui Zu's instinct kicked in. He twisted his body and swung his sword down at the incoming dragon. However, he had overestimated his power. He thought his current strength could deal with Yun Lintian's Dragon Fist with no problem, but it was actually insufficient. 

The sword was knocked off his hand with a bang, and the virtual dragon ruthlessly hit his chest, causing him to fly backward and land on the ground.

Before Gui Zu could get up, Yun Lintian had already appeared in front of him and sent out another punch at his head. A split second later, all Gui Zu could see was endless darkness.

"Seventeen left." Yun Lintian glanced at Gui Zu's headless corpse and turned around, executing Shadow Step to follow Li Qiang.

At this moment, in the faraway distance, Wang Jue was stomping on the formation's eyes furiously. "What the hell happens!? Why is it not working?"

Poor Wang Jue, he had no idea that Yun Lintian had arranged a formation to block the Inferno Prison's energy flow…
