Chapter 488: Chapter 406: Explosion at the Original Location Chapter 488: Chapter 406: Explosion at the Original Location “Not good!”

The gaunt young man’s face changed. As he swiftly retreated, black light flickered around him as he tried to activate the Power of Soul of the “Black Ghost” to escape.

However, the fine yellow sand scattered around Baili Ge had already gathered at high speed. It quickly bound him and pulled him back.

Baili Ge turned and opened his right hand. A sand spear shot out from his palm.

“Hiss!”

A blood hole appeared as the sand spear pierced through the gaunt young man’s chest, killing him instantly!

Not far away, another person in a green robe seized the opportunity and charged towards Baili Ge, intending to slay him while his defensive sand was drawn away by the gaunt young man.

But Baili Ge was not alone.

A glint of cold light erupted as a broadsaber slashed from the side of the green-robed person!

The green-robed person’s face changed, thinking Tian Bulue would guard the Pulse Drawing Bead. Unexpectedly, the opponent suddenly attacked, forcing him to swing his sword to parry.

Yet this broadsaber was as heavy as a boulder, directly deflecting the longsword and slamming into the green-robed person’s chest, caving it in!

The green-robed person spewed a mouthful of blood and was flung backward with his sword.

“Trying to bind my Yellow Dragon Technique?” Baili Ge formed seals with both hands and pointed at the two sand tornadoes in the distance.

Dragons roared. The yellow sand bound by the curse black nails surged and transmuted into two rugged Pan Yan Salamanders, shattering the curse black nails!

The two salamanders split into two groups. One charged at the green-robed person who had been flung away by Tian Bulue. The other crashed directly into the middle-aged man in a black robe who had cast the curse black nails!

In just a moment, these two were crushed into bloody pulp!

Such ferocity intimidated the remaining individuals who had been planning an offensive.

Baili Ge hesitated not at all. The two Pan Yan Salamanders reverted to spiral sand tornadoes and charged at the remaining people, killing two more in the blink of an eye.

“We can’t take this. Run!”

Seeing the sand tornadoes charging again, someone took flight, turning into a beam of light and fleeing into the distance.

With one fleeing, others followed suit, fearing to be the next target of the domineering tornadoes.

In no time, everyone had scattered, leaving only Baili Ge and Tian Bulue.

“Wei Dawei, what do we do now?” Yan Jin saw Baili Ge’s strength and was slightly shocked.

Wei Zong was about to speak when Baili Ge’s voice came from the mid-air in the distance: “The experts of Yanluo Country Firehawk Guard, have you been watching for so long? Do you want a share?”

“We thought we hid well, but it seems these two saw through us already…” Wei Zong shook his head and sighed, then led the others forward.

“Wei Zong of the Firehawk Guard, greetings to the two Great Flame Special Envoys.” He cupped his hands and said, “Congratulations to the two of you for securing this Wolf Vein. In that case, we shall take our leave.”

With that, Wei Zong prepared to leave with his men.

However, Baili Ge raised his hand slightly, and the previously retracted sand tornadoes charged out from both sides, blocking Wei Zong and his group.

“What are you doing?” Yan Jin exclaimed.

Miao Ping and the other two male Firehawk Guards drew their weapons nervously.

The power of those sand tornadoes was witnessed by everyone just now.

Getting caught in them would mean certain death by yellow sand.

Baili Ge crossed his arms and said with a mocking smile, “Other trash is tolerable, but you Yanluo Firehawk Guards have been watching in secret for so long. You must not intend to escort us, right?”

At Baili Ge’s sarcastic words, everyone raised their eyebrows, and Yan Jin couldn’t hold back: “You?!…”

Wei Zong raised his hand to calm everyone. After thinking briefly, he took out two items from his ring.

“A Fourth Grade Lake Crystal and Mystic Rock Crystal Sand, as congratulations for you two securing the Wolf Vein.”

Yan Jin anxiously said, “Wei Dawei, this is what we painstakingly collected in the New Dust Realm…”

Before Yan Jin could finish, Miao Ping pinched him, signaling him to stop.

Miao Ping understood that if they wanted to compete openly, they should have confronted the Great Flame duo when they first released the Pulse Drawing Bead to extract the Star Vein.

But since they had hidden in the shadows to seize the Pulse Drawing Bead, they were in the wrong.

Now, the two Sky Patrol Angels’ strength vastly exceeded their expectations. Without some compensation, leaving wouldn’t be so easy.

While Wei Zong might withstand it, the rest would have a hard time against these fierce sand tornadoes…

“Oh? Mystic Rock Crystal Sand…” Baili Ge’s eyes brightened slightly. With a wave of his hand, a stream of sand rolled up the two items from Wei Zong’s hand. “Heh, since you are so generous, we’ll gladly accept.”

Wei Zong sighed inwardly and nodded. “In that case, we’ll be on our way.”

“Safe travels!”

Baili Ge chuckled, retracting the sand tornadoes and watching them leave.

“Special Envoy Tian, this is for you.” Baili Ge handed the Lake Crystal to Tian Bulue. “The Mystic Rock Crystal Sand is useful to me; I’ll take it.”

Tian Bulue shook his head: “Subduing this Wolf Vein was your effort. Both the Lake Crystal and Mystic Rock Crystal Sand are yours.”

“Heh, we worked together. There’s no reason to hog all the spoils. Besides, I’ll report your assistance in extracting the Wolf Vein in detail.” Baili Ge grinned, tossing the Lake Crystal to him.

Tian Bulue caught the Lake Crystal, his impression of Baili Ge greatly changed.

He used to operate solo and hadn’t worked with other First Level Special Envoys much. He only knew them superficially.

Unexpectedly, though Baili Ge seemed unreliable at first, he proved more dependable than imagined.

“Alright, thanks. I’ll hand over the next spoils to you.”

…

“David, are we really just leaving like this?” Yan Jin was still dissatisfied.

They got neither the Wolf Vein nor the two Fourth Grade items they had collected.

Wei Zong said, “If we could handle those two, we wouldn’t need to pay them off. We could’ve seized the Star Vein.

Being weaker means this. If we don’t want it to happen again, we must cultivate and become stronger.”

Though young, Yan Jin was already a Central Guard and highly regarded by Wei Zong.

This experience should also be a lesson for him.

“Sigh!” Yan Jin sighed, knowing Wei Zong was right.

They moved on, preparing to search further.

Suddenly, Miao Ping, who had been maintaining spiritual detection, spoke: “David, someone is coming ahead.”

“Someone?” Wei Zong raised an eyebrow. He hadn’t sensed anything.

Miao Ping continued: “Yes, two people… David, they’re coming right at us!”

No sooner had he spoken than two figures rapidly approached in their vision.

These two wore white uniforms, scattered with blue stars.

On their right shoulders, these stars formed a Capricorn constellation.

“Northerners? This uniform looks familiar.”

Wei Zong signaled his group to stay cautious and called out: “What business do you have with us?”

The two stopped, and a well-built young man with brown curly hair spoke: “Is there a Wolf Vein born up ahead?”

Seeking the Wolf Vein?

Wei Zong pondered, preferring fewer complications. He was about to say he didn’t know.

These two seemed hostile, and being Northerners… he didn’t want to disclose information.

“Are you looking for the Wolf Vein?” Yan Jin answered first, “Yes, a Wolf Vein was born. Keep going, and you’ll see it.”

“Just ahead?” The tall, slim, golden-haired man beside him laughed, “Chad, our luck is good. We’re about to find two Wolf Veins.”

The curly-haired young man nodded, “Indeed.”

Yan Jin added, “But hurry, someone is already extracting the Wolf Vein…”

“Yan Jin!” Wei Zong glared at Yan Jin, surprised by his detailed response.

Clearly, he wanted the Northerners to disrupt the Sky Patrol Angels’ extraction.

Despite internal competition, Yanluo was still part of the Southern faction.

Especially after learning some in their country were connected to Qiguang, Wei Zong’s disdain for Northerners had grown.

Wei Zong turned back and said to the two: “If that’s so, please go ahead.”

Leading his group, Wei Zong moved aside.

“Someone’s extracting it? That means we need to hurry…”

The curly-haired youth spoke coldly, raising his hand and pointing at Wei Zong’s group.

The space rippled slightly, something rushing out from his finger.

Wei Zong’s heart skipped. He shouted: “Be careful, retreat!”

Alarmed, Miao Ping and the others immediately backed off.

“David, what’s wrong!” Yan Jin asked anxiously.

The others, puzzled, watched the distant pair warily.

Is it nothing?

Wei Zong focused on the curly-haired youth. Was his instinct wrong?

Shaking his head, he said: “It’s nothing… hmm?”

Suddenly, Yan Jin’s expression froze, and the next moment, his body swelled like a balloon!

“Ah!! David… I feel so bloated!”

“Yan Jin?!” The group’s shouts were filled with shock and horror.

Wei Zong, alarmed, rushed to check. But in moments, Yan Jin’s body expanded to its limit, turning into a horrific human-sized balloon!

Yan Jin’s eyes widened in terror.

“No… no!”

Wei Zong shouted: “Move away…”

“Boom!” Blood and flesh flew everywhere as Yan Jin exploded on the spot.
