I Break through Crazily

「Within Wolf Fighting Slope.」

Tang Yi stood atop an expanse of ice and snow, waiting quietly. In the distance, dozens of black shadows streaked toward him, a formidable sight.

These dozens of black shadows were the reinforcements the Wolf Heaven Mercenary Corps had summoned with a black signal flare.

Compared to the several thousand reinforcements from before, these dozens of black shadows were but a drop in the ocean, a pitifully small number.

However, the threat these dozens of black shadows posed to Tang Yi was immeasurably greater than that of the thousands of Silver and Golden Robe mercenaries—and even immeasurably greater than the four Purple Robe mercenaries.

Facing these dozens of black shadows and sensing the auras they exuded, Tang Yi’s expression grew solemn, and a faint tension crept into him.

He had already donned all of his equipment and even had several expensive Golden Wound Medicines at the ready. He stood his ground, grim and poised for battle, all traces of his earlier nonchalance gone.

This just went to show how seriously Tang Yi was taking these dozens of dark figures.

An earth-shattering battle was surely about to begin!

WHOOSH!

Before long, the dozens of black shadows finally arrived in the sky above Tang Yi, facing him from a distance.

Tang Yi looked up at the dozens of figures hovering in the sky. He counted them silently—there were about sixty or seventy in all. As for the robes they were wearing...

From a distance, Tang Yi hadn’t been able to see clearly. But now that they were closer, he saw that they were, to his surprise, almost all mercenaries in purple robes!

The only exceptions were the two individuals leading them...

But these two leaders were even more formidable. They were wearing black robes!

Tang Yi knew that within the Wolf Heaven Mercenary Corps, a purple robe signified the strength of a Battle Emperor. It was a lofty position, a status that countless others looked up to.

And as for those in black robes...

They possessed the power of a Battle Supreme Master, with a position second only to the leader and above all others, revered by the masses.

In other words, the Wolf Heaven Mercenary Corps had sent two Battle Supreme Masters and dozens of Battle Emperors to deal with Tang Yi!

Tang Yi briefly scanned them with his Celestial Eye Technique and confirmed it. Just as he suspected, their levels matched their robes—the color of their garments perfectly corresponded to their rank.

Aside from their commander in his Five-Colored Robe, who was not present, the last of the Wolf Heaven Mercenary Corps’s strongest forces had finally arrived before Tang Yi. In fact, these were the very people he had been seeking, the ones he wanted revenge against.

While Tang Yi was sizing up the arrivals from the Wolf Heaven Mercenary Corps, the mercenaries in the sky were also scrutinizing him.

When they saw the scene below—the land, buildings, and plants all buried under a desolate blanket of ice and snow—and the countless figures frozen within the ice, devoid of any signs of life, the Purple Robe mercenaries in the sky frowned. Their faces paled, and their eyes burned with rage.

Their glares at Tang Yi were filled with incomparable fury and resentment, as if they wanted to slice him into a thousand pieces that very instant.

If the two leading Black Robe elders hadn’t held them back, these enraged Purple Robe mercenaries would have already charged down to settle the score with Tang Yi and fight him to the death.

Thousands of men!

Thousands of men, frozen solid in ice, their life forces extinguished. They were all experts at the Battle Spirit or even Battle King Level—the very foundation of the Wolf Heaven Mercenary Corps, the core of its strength! And just like that, they were gone, frozen to death!

This meant the foundation the Wolf Heaven Mercenary Corps had spent countless years building had been destroyed in a single day, all at the hands of the sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy before them.

At this thought, all the Purple Robe mercenaries gnashed their teeth and stared at Tang Yi. If looks could kill, he would have died countless times over.

The two leading Black Robe mercenaries were both old, with white hair and wrinkled faces. They appeared to have very different temperaments: one was as calm as still water, while the other was hot-tempered and impatient.

The hot-tempered old mercenary wore his emotions on his sleeve, and it was clear that he was absolutely furious.

It was this hot-tempered old mercenary who, upon arriving, looked down on Tang Yi imperiously and demanded in a commanding tone that permitted no argument, ”Speak! Who are you? Why have you come to cause trouble for our Wolf Heaven Mercenary Corps? Why did you break our rules, destroy our foundation, and slaughter our members? If you don’t give me a good reason, I will make you wish you were dead! I will exterminate your entire clan, and I won’t spare a single one of your friends!”

’Heh, the same old routine,’

Tang Yi thought with a cold sneer. The Black Robe mercenary’s words were exceptionally vicious. Hearing his tone and seeing his methods, Tang Yi grew even more certain that the Wolf Heaven Mercenary Corps was responsible for the annihilation of the Tang Family.

’Otherwise, why would their methods be so similar?’

’It’s even possible that this old Black Robe mercenary was the one who gave the order to destroy the Tang Family!’

”What are you sneering at!”

Seeing Tang Yi’s sneer, the hot-tempered old Black Robe mercenary glared and barked, thoroughly displeased.

”What I’m sneering at is none of your damn business!”

Tang Yi shot back without hesitation.

Tang Yi felt that being looked down upon put him at a disadvantage, as if he were their inferior. It made it harder to speak with conviction. So, with a flicker of movement, he too flew into the sky, positioning himself opposite the mercenaries from the Wolf Heaven Mercenary Corps, meeting them at eye level.

This way, the two sides were now on equal footing.

”How dare you!”

”You dare disrespect our Protector? Boy, do you have a death wish?”

”A mere brat like you is acting completely lawless!”

”Our Protector’s status is noble beyond compare! Who are you to contradict him?”

”If you dare to speak so rudely again, see if I don’t rip that mouth of yours apart!”

Hearing Tang Yi’s insolent retort, the Purple Robe mercenaries began to roar at him.

”You!”

The hot-tempered old Black Robe mercenary trembled with rage.

’In all his long life, when had anyone ever dared to contradict him like this?’

’This sixteen-year-old punk before him dared to tell him it was none of his damn business? He was simply courting death!’

”’You’ what? Shut your mouth, you old coot. You’ve lived this long, just to spend your days huffing and glaring? Aren’t you afraid you’ll pop a blood vessel? And you lot, a bunch of ass-kissers. You’re not young, and your levels aren’t low, yet you still grovel like this. Heh, I guess any riff-raff can become a Battle Emperor these days,” Tang Yi taunted.

”You shut your mouth!!!”

The hot-tempered old Black Robe mercenary already had an explosive temper. Goaded like this, he was left sputtering, so overcome with fury that he was about to charge forward and kill Tang Yi.

However, he was stopped by the other, more level-headed Black Robe mercenary.

The Purple Robe mercenaries were also seething with rage, desperate to charge forward and kill Tang Yi. But since neither of the Black Robe elders had given the word, they dared not act rashly. After all, for all their bluster, this impossibly young boy was the one who had slaughtered thousands of their men and forced them to fire the black signal flare. He was no simple opponent.

”Young man, who exactly are you? What grudge could you possibly have with our Wolf Heaven Mercenary Corps?” the level-headed Black Robe mercenary asked after stopping his companion.

He knew they wouldn’t get any information by letting his hot-tempered companion do the questioning, so he decided to ask himself.

”And who are you? What’s your position in the Wolf Heaven Mercenary Corps? Before you question me, shouldn’t you introduce yourself first? Don’t you understand even that basic courtesy?” Tang Yi replied coldly, giving no ground.
