After hearing these words, all eyes converged on Wang Zhan.
Beside them, Hu Xianfeng clenched his fists tightly and said in a low voice, "What are you up to?"
"Do you know how powerful this guy is? His strength is even on par with mine. If you insist on taking action, you are definitely not his opponent."
"Stop wasting ti. Follow
and withdraw right away."
anwhile, Han Junxiong, also at their side, clutched his chest and said solemnly, "Brother, listen to Hu Lao's intentions."
After all, among the few of them, Hu Xianfeng was the most powerful. Since Hu Xianfeng had already suffered a backlash to so extent, what could Wang Zhan possibly do even if he took action? It would only increase their losses. So they must now do their best to preserve their own strength. Moreover, although Qiu Lingdu had lost his Divine Sense, he wasn't a fool. He knew how terrifying the combined strength of Wang Zhan and Hu Xianfeng was, and subconsciously, he didn't want to fight the two of them. So, this was an excellent situation for them. Wang Zhan should be able to retreat safely.
But Wang Zhan's eyes were full of determination. He had been thinking about the System lately. After all, if he wanted to improve his own cultivation, the System was the most important factor. The most pressing issue was to figure out everything about the System. Only then could he increase his cultivation to a certain extent again. If he continued to stagnate, when would he be able to find Hu Xianfeng? "Seek wealth through danger"—this was the principle Wang Zhan always adhered to.
Wang Zhan squinted, then clenched the Deep Fire Blade in his hand, and said with a smile, "Don't worry, everything is within my control. Even if I'm not this big guy's opponent, it's not a difficult task to retreat safely."
"You and Hu Lao don't have to worry about . You two should leave here first, and I will find a way to et up with you later."
Hu Xianfeng's face quickly beca unsightly. He knew very well how powerful Qiu Lingdu was. If Wang Zhan insisted on opposing Qiu Lingdu, the consequences were unthinkable. Thinking of this, Hu Xianfeng clenched his fist, patted Han Junxiong's shoulder beside him, and said, "I think you know his character. It seems he won't give up until he hits a wall. In that case, I will stay here and fight with him. You should go back to my thatched cottage and wait quietly."
Han Junxiong's level of strength was evident. There was a significant gap between him and Wang Zhan, let alone Hu Xianfeng. Moreover, soone of his level wouldn't be able to get involved in this kind of fight.
Han Junxiong was stunned for a mont, but he didn't leave. He stared at Wang Zhan for a while, then gritted his teeth and said, "Since you and Hu Lao are both prepared to stay here, I can't just leave. After all, we are all n of flesh and blood, each with a head on his shoulders. What's there to be so afraid of?"
As he spoke, Han Junxiong was ready to make a move again. Wang Zhan looked at him.
It had to be said that Han Junxiong was indeed a suitable partner. Things had reached this point, but instead of choosing to leave, Han Junxiong chose to stand with him. This made Wang Zhan feel comforted.
Hu Xianfeng also nodded with satisfaction, saying with a smile, "I didn't realize before that there were such gutsy n among the Bounty Hunters." As he spoke, he glanced at the people who had been hiding behind the trees. His eyes were filled with indifference. These people were also Bounty Hunters, but compared to Han Junxiong, there was a significant disparity between them.
Hu Xianfeng said, "No wonder you couldn't get along with them. It seems there is indeed a significant difference between you and them. But that's a good thing. The sooner you separate from these people, the more your strength can improve. Moreover, you won't have to carry a bunch of burdens, nor will you have to worry about your own people turning against you."
Han Junxiong nodded heavily; this was indeed the case. Of course, if it weren't for his initial desire to improve his own cultivation, or to get more powerful equipnt, he wouldn't have joined the ranks of Bounty Hunters. He had reached his current position through his own strength, accumulated bit by bit. However, he had to admit that he was tired of this life. After all, these guys never acted as true partners should, not even when facing death.
anwhile, Hu Xianfeng moved Xu Xu towards Wang Zhan, his gaze then falling on Qiu Lingdu. At this mont, everyone's attention was focused on Qiu Lingdu. After all, if they couldn't deal with Qiu Lingdu, it wouldn't just be their own trouble; the whole city might even fall into difficult tis. So, they certainly couldn't retreat.
Wang Zhan squinted at Hu Xianfeng beside him, then gave a grinning smile. "I have an impolite request. I wonder if you, old fellow, would be willing to help?"
Hu Xianfeng rolled his eyes at him, then grumbled, "You youngster sure can't say anything nice, can you? I'm much older than you; can't you call
anything other than 'old fellow'?"
Observing the exchange between the two, Han Junxiong couldn't help but laugh. Despite the looming battle, there was no hint of worry on their faces. They were even able to lightheartedly joke around.
The other Bounty Hunters watched them in confusion. Hu Xianfeng had just attacked, but his blow hadn't posed any threat to Qiu Lingdu, which demonstrated Qiu Lingdu's strength. However, Hu Xianfeng's expression remained calm and untroubled, which was indeed unexpected.
Wang Zhan shrugged, smiled, and said, "I call you that because we're close. If we weren't familiar, I wouldn't even call you 'old fellow.' So, you should be secretly pleased."
Hu Xianfeng didn't pay attention to his words and simply turned his face to the side. "Alright then, whatever you say. I'm not going to bother with you anymore. You solve everything by yourself."
Upon hearing this, Wang Zhan's expression changed. He never expected Hu Xianfeng to be so childish. He quickly moved closer to Hu Xianfeng, then laughed and said, "I don't want to waste any more ti on banter. The big battle is about to start; we should focus on Qiu Lingdu."
Upon hearing this, Hu Xianfeng's eyes widened. Now it seed as if he was the root of all problems. He glared at Wang Zhan, then gritted his teeth and said, "Enough of your incessant chatter! If you have sothing to say, spit it out! I'm itching for a fight."
"After all, it's been so many years since I've encountered such a formidable opponent. Having a good fight here wouldn't be a bad thing at all."
The onlookers gave Hu Xianfeng a thumbs-up.
Once a fight of this magnitude started, it was no small matter. Even Heaven and Earth might change color because of it. And if one were careless, they could lose their life. However, there was no trace of panic on Hu Xianfeng's face; he obviously didn't care about such things.
Indeed, there is a great gap between people.
Wang Zhan, looking at the restless Qiu Lingdu, didn't waste any more ti and said, "I just want to test my own strength. Or rather, give
a chance to face Qiu Lingdu alone."
"If it really gets desperate, you can step in to help. What do you think?"
Before Hu Xianfeng could speak, the expressions of the onlookers turned considerably unsightly. Han Junxiong was also looking at Wang Zhan in surprise. He never expected Wang Zhan to make such a proposal. This was clearly throwing himself into a pit of fire.
Realizing this, Han Junxiong quickly rushed to his side and said, "Brother, this is no ti for jokes! If you stubbornly insist on your way, you could very well lose your life! Besides, we don't have ti to get entangled with Qiu Lingdu any longer. It's better to deal with him as quickly as possible."
"After all, it would be much easier if you and Hu Lao join forces."
"And even if you two defeat him together, it will still bring endless honor."
Apparently, in Han Junxiong's eyes, Wang Zhan was just trying to gain more honor for himself. After all, if he could truly defeat Qiu Lingdu single-handedly, he would likely gain fa at a young age instantly, becoming the center of everyone's attention.
But this was no easy task, and he was essentially gambling with his own life.
So how could he not worry?
Wang Zhan, on the other hand, shrugged and said with a smile, "Don't worry. I'm not fighting for honor, nor do I care about such accolades. After all, what does it matter what others say about ?"
"I just want to see for myself how terrifying this Qiu Lingdu truly is. I also want to find out if I can contend with him relying solely on my own strength."
"Of course, if I can't, that would be quite disappointing."
Evidently, Wang Zhan didn't seem to regard his own life with much importance in this situation.
In his view, as long as he could enhance his strength, that was all that mattered.
