Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable

Chapter 639: Chapter 600: Reaching the Peak 9 (4,000 words)_3

Thinking this way, Mr. Lan jumped down from the big tree and landed directly in front of Shuangshuang and Tan Feiyu.

Before Mr. Lan could speak, he saw Tan Feiyu opposite him reveal a strange smile. Mr. Lan felt a jolt in his heart, and the intuition honed from his years in the headhunting business sent out a strong danger warning at this moment, but it was already too late.

Before Mr. Lan could follow his intuition and retreat, seven or eight people suddenly descended around him. Each of them was at a level higher than his, and one of them had the unconscious Wu Zhao under their arm. Surrounded by so many people, it was impossible for Mr. Lan to escape.

Tan Feiyu looked at the completely bewildered Mr. Lan, who had no idea how he had fallen into this trap, and looked at Shuangshuang with admiration.

After Shuangshuang noticed something wrong with Wu Zhao, she had already become vigilant. She didn’t know the relationship between Wu Zhao and Mr. Lan, but with a bit of analysis, she understood that Wu Zhao blocking her in such a place meant there must be something tricky ahead on the road.

Shuangshuang was not someone who feared death nor was she the type to step into obvious traps. Wu Zhao made every effort to delay her and Tan Feiyu, clearly indicating the trouble ahead was not easy to overcome.

So along the way, Shuangshuang and Tan Feiyu appeared to wander aimlessly, but they were actually leaving information to discreetly gather skilled Tan Family members nearby to first investigate what’s really on Mang Mountain.

When Mr. Lan followed Shuangshuang and Tan Feiyu, several other people also followed Mr. Lan. Like the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind, when Mr. Lan couldn’t wait any longer and wanted to make a move, the skilled members of the Tan Family who were found arrived first and surrounded Mr. Lan.

For a headhunter caught like this, it usually ends in death. Mr. Lan had no hesitation; realizing he had fallen into a trap, he immediately tried desperately to break out and escape.

Unfortunately, any person surrounding Mr. Lan could easily defeat him, and in just a few moves, Mr. Lan was found and swiftly executed by the Guard Captain responsible for the Tan Family’s outer surveillance.

After Mr. Lan died, Tan Feiyu quickly ran over to search his body, finding seven or eight spatial bags.

Since Mr. Lan planned to escape after completing this task, he carried all his assets with him. Now, Tan Feiyu fetched them out and presented them like a treasure to Shuangshuang.

Spatial bags are the most basic storage items, which anyone can open without requiring blood binding or spiritual power. So, Shuangshuang effortlessly saw the contents of these spatial bags.

Mr. Lan, as a headhunter, was indeed wealthy; besides the ten thousand Spiritual Pearls given to him by Wu Zhao, he also had his own savings of about twenty thousand Spiritual Pearls, and various miscellaneous spiritual medicines, weapon embryos, etc.

While Shuangshuang inspected Mr. Lan’s savings on one side, on the other side, Tan Feiyu eagerly searched Wu Zhao from top to bottom, finding some scattered gold and silver coins and a spatial bag full of Spiritual Pearls.

One was Wu Zhao who wanted Shuangshuang’s life, and the other was Mr. Lan who came to take Shuangshuang’s life; against these two adversaries, Shuangshuang had no qualms about turning the tables.

The trap Mr. Lan set previously was taken down by the Tan Family; it was an array designed to trap anyone entering it, making them easy prey. Mr. Lan’s main purpose in setting this array was to prevent Shuangshuang and Qin Feiyu from escaping, yet ironically, he ended up being the one with no escape.

After looting the wealth, Shuangshuang dumped Mr. Lan and Wu Zhao together. Before leaving, she patted Wu Zhao a couple of times to ensure the hidden dangers on his body would flare up in the coming days, finally easing her mind.

Thanks to the timely arrival of many skilled members of the Tan Family, otherwise, she and Tan Feiyu would have truly been in danger. With the unexpected windfall, Shuangshuang wasn’t stingy and rewarded each person with ten Spiritual Pearls as a token of thanks, causing everyone to beam with joy and repeatedly thank Shuangshuang and Tan Feiyu for their generosity.

Spiritual Pearls are extra earnings, not requiring handing over to the family. Shuangshuang and Tan Feiyu split them evenly. Holding the fortune, Tan Feiyu was so excited, he could barely walk straight back to the Tan Family, grinning all the way.

Less than three days later, news came from outside that Wu Zhao, the most outstanding of the Wu Family’s younger generation, made a mistake during cultivation practice, leading to spiritual power turbulence and causing his Qi Sea to be completely destroyed. When this news arrived, Shuangshuang was preparing to enter closed-door training to break through her own level barriers.
