830: 829: Get rich quietly 830: 829: Get rich quietly No one noticed all this, but the female captain’s expression didn’t look too good.
They had only been inside for half a day, yet four people were already lost.
This was her failure.
If she had realized earlier, these things might not have happened.
“I’ve decided to disband the team once we reach the gathering point.
To be honest, I was pretty confident when we first entered, but I didn’t expect the gap to be so large.
I don’t want us to end up with only a few mbers before the ruins even appear,” Cloud Jade admitted, accepting the reality.
“Captain, please don’t say that.
None of us had anyone to take us in except you.
Just for that, we all trust you.
Illusion Beasts are incredibly powerful; any Immortal who has entered the battlefield knows this,” a team mber consoled her.
“I’ve already made up my mind.
Take care of yourselves in the future,” Cloud Jade replied resolutely, leaving no room for further discussion.
The group hadn’t expected the team to fall apart so quickly.
So team mbers who had a high opinion of the female captain could only feel regret in their hearts.
Being around a woman like her was far from dull, but now she felt unreachable.
However, they wouldn’t reach the gathering point that easily.
When they were still over ten kiloters away, a group of Illusion Beasts appeared and charged into the team.
Other than a few quick-reacting individuals, the majority were instantly overwheld.
So resisted briefly but soon fell prey to the Illusion Beasts.
As the remaining six found the pressure mounting, a group of people suddenly appeared.
Over a dozen Restriction Nets descended from the sky, trapping five Illusion Beasts.
The newcors rushed over, brimming with excitent.
“Xiaoqi, you three did well.” One of them patted three people in the small team before looking at Tang Feng, the female captain, and another team mber.
“You two aren’t bad either.
Not a scratch on you.
I saved you, so shouldn’t you show so appreciation?”
This person was brazen and outright arrogant.
The implication was clear: I handled this, but you still need to obediently accept the loss.
“How should we show our appreciation?” The female captain smirked.
“I’m still missing a Lady.
Interested?”
“Do you really think you can claim , of all people?” Cloud Jade laughed coldly.
Just as the man assud she would compromise, she struck suddenly, swinging her sword directly at him.
The strike terrified him.
Fortunately, he moved fast enough; otherwise, he would have been split in two.
They say won can be ruthless, and this was truly eye-opening.
“Bitch!
I tried to be nice, but you just had to push it,” the middle-aged man spat, attacking her personally.
In a flash, he appeared in front of the female captain.
“You’re finished.”
“Not necessarily.”
The female captain finished speaking when her body shattered completely, yet no blood sprayed out.
Sothing was off.
Could it be Puppetry?
“Captain, watch out!”
The middle-aged man felt a deep sense of foreboding behind him and quickly dodged.
But he was still half a step too slow and had his arm sliced halfway through, the bone fully exposed.
At this level of cultivation, injuries were rare, but this incident truly shocked and enraged the man.
When had he ever been so humiliated?
“Fine.
Very well.
I’ve changed my mind now.
I’m going to make you suffer, and I, Lei Ao, always keep my word.”
Boom!
His entire body shuddered as countless bolts of lightning erupted and danced across him.
A Thunder Immortal?
Thunder Practitioners were rare in the Immortal Realm, but they were notoriously fearso.
Their attack power was overwhelming, and ordinary Immortals couldn’t withstand their assaults.
“Hmph!
So you’re the one who betrayed your kin.” Cloud Jade’s heart sank slightly.
She hadn’t expected to encounter this person here—it was troubleso.
Even so, she wasn’t necessarily afraid.
At that mont, a War Armor appeared on her body.
Without it, facing an opponent like this would have been unthinkable.
anwhile, Lei Ao’s squad mbers had also turned their attention to Tang Feng and another team mber.
But they picked the wrong targets.
They thought they could extort sothing, but they were dead before they even realized what had happened.
While the middle-aged man battled the female captain, Tang Feng was already cleaning up the rest of his team.
Illusion Beasts were rare treasures, and he wasn’t about to miss out.
Another team mber soon perished.
Tang Feng had no choice—he felt no connection to them, and they had shown no goodwill toward him.
Dead was dead.
Entering this place was essentially a gamble with one’s life.
He just hadn’t expected that person to die so quickly.
The female captain was struggling now.
Tang Feng observed briefly before stepping in.
Once he activated Yin Yang Movent, everyone within the domain froze.
In that instant, streaks of sword light flashed, reducing the opponents to dust.
When Lei Ao realized what had happened, none of his team mbers were left.
He panicked.
“How could this be?
That kid acted too convincingly—he’s actually an expert.
No, I have to retreat.” Casting a reluctant glance at the female captain, Lei Ao withdrew.
In a flash of lightning, he disappeared into the sky.
The man really did flee.
After landing, the female captain removed her War Armor and collapsed to the ground.
She was at her limit.
The Thunder Elent was terrifying; each exchange of blows shocked her with electricity, leaving her helpless.
Fortunately, soone had helped her.
To her amusent, it turned out to be the person she had least expected.
Cloud Jade chuckled to herself—maybe her judgnt wasn’t so bad after all.
The Illusion Beasts’ true forms now appeared.
To her surprise, they were quite beautiful, sothing she hadn’t anticipated.
Though she had encountered Illusion Beasts many tis, it was her first ti seeing their real forms.
“I’ll take three, you take two.
Is that okay?” Tang Feng grinned.
“No, I’ll just take one.
The rest are yours,” the female captain replied with a smile.
Just getting one was already a massive stroke of luck.
Without Tang Feng, she’d likely be dead by now.
“Suit yourself.
Can you still move?” Tang Feng asked.
“No, I can’t.
What do you plan to do, bully ?” the female captain teased.
“I wouldn’t dare.
I just want to help.” Tang Feng stepped forward and handed her an Immortal Pill.
“An Immortal Pill?
This is too precious; I can’t accept it.”
“Take it.
No need to be polite.
I respect you for taking into the team.
If I’m not mistaken, you’re probably a great beauty, right?” Tang Feng chuckled.
“Who’s a great beauty?
Though I do have confidence in my figure.” The female captain laughed.
“Co on, your human-skin mask is peeling off—stop pretending.” Tang Feng rolled his eyes.
Cloud Jade shrugged helplessly.
After swallowing the elixir, she quickly recovered.
Within monts, she was back on her feet.
“Thank you; I wouldn’t be alive without you.”
“How are you going to thank ?”
“You n always want to take advantage of won.
Alright then, are you bold enough to co over here?”
“I wouldn’t dare.”
“Haha, you’re quite honest.
Don’t worry—I won’t cut you down.” The female captain laughed.
“But I’m still scared.
Forget it—let’s just say you owe a favor.
Having a debt from a great beauty will brighten my mood every day.” Tang Feng grinned.
“Fine, I’ll pay you back eventually.
What’s your plan now?
Going solo or sticking with ?” asked the female captain.
“If I stick with you, what’s your plan?
Be honest.
This place is dangerous,” Tang Feng replied.
“Alright, what danger?
If anything, it’s others who should be worried.
With your skills, even Illusion Beasts fear you.
Honestly, I wouldn’t even know if you decided to pull sothing on ,” Cloud Jade said with a smirk.
