The moment Qin Feng stepped onto the bus, the screen on it began to provide updates, greeting people with scenes that were being captured by drones. 

  The range of this beast wave was not that wide, it mostly consisted of G-tier ultra beasts. After all, this was a safe colony and the level of ultra beasts nearby was not usually very high. However, there was a beast king among that large number of ultra beasts. 

  That was why there was an emergency broadcast for all the capable aptitude users in the colony. The F-tier aptitude users who heard this that felt like they had the power to do something decided to participate in a heartbeat. 

  A beast king. How rare of a sight! 

  The bus was not even full yet, there were only a few dozen passengers, but the driver could not wait any longer! He put the pedal to the metal, speeding down the street to the point where the partols had to block the roads so that the bus could pass. 

  In less than fifteen minutes, they had already left Hanchuankou and were wildly driving into the wilderness. In about ten minutes, the passengers heard gunshots from the aptitude users that were fighting back as they retreated. 

  By now, the ultra beasts had made it close to the agricultural zone. There were small defensive outposts near the area that could be bolstered. 

  Qin Feng and the rest quickly got off the bus and saw just what they were up against. 

  “It’s a wolf pack!” 

  “Pale Wolf beast general, that white one, that white one must be the beast king!” 

  “Holy shit!” 

  “Are there any F-tier that can block that?” 

  The people briefly argued noisily amongst themselves but they were quick to join the battle. They were afraid of how dense the wolf pack was but they could not back out now, also going with the tactical retreat. 

  Soon, F-tier aptitude users arrived and it was not just one of them. 

  There were two of them that came in on patrol cars, they were dressed in special patrol uniforms of the Hanchuankou colony. They were obviously squad leaders! 

  “Leave the beast king to us, you lot handle the rest!” One of the squad leaders commanded while raising a hand and shot out a beam of light. 

  It was purple! 

  He appeared to be an electric ability user. The beam of lightning rushed out to meet the Pale Wolf King in the blink of an eye. 

  Whoosh! 

  The figure of the Pale Wolf King dodged away from the attack, but the other ultra beasts that did not move as quickly dropped to the ground from the electrical attack. 

  “Hurry up and help me deal with this a*shole!” The electric ability user called out. 

  “Leave it to me!” Another person said, rushing forward and plowing through the G-tier wolves that were no match against him. 

  F6-tier ancient warrior. 

  These G-tier ultra beasts were too easy to kill. 

  Moving quickly, the ancient warrior slammed a palm into the beast king, intercepting his opponent’s attack on the ability user who continued to unleash his power at the ultra beast. 

  The battle was fought in a dazzling manner. 

  Qin Feng did not want to intervene, if he did anything he would have been exposed as a D-tier aptitude user. 

  Fortunately, he did not need to wait too long. Another bus had arrived to drop off its passenger. 

  A young man with fiery red hair jumped right out of the vehicle. From the first glance, he did not look any younger than seventeen years old and wore an F5-tier aptitude user badge on his chest. 

  It was Xue Yuan! 

  Qin Feng was not too far away from him. At this time, the other party had just gotten out of their bus, his eyes lighting up at the sight of the beast king. 

  “Now that’s quite the prize!” He said to himself, rushing forward into the fray. 

  Xue Yuan’s F7 martial prowess was obviously powerful. 

  “Sanguine Arts!” 

  Xue Yuan raised his hand before slamming his palm into the Pale Wolf’s back. There was no crack that came from the Pale Wolf King’s spine being broken, instead the attack left behind a bloody handprint where it landed. 

  Then the Pale Wolf King’s waist began to droop, as if it had no bones to support it there. 

  This was the power of the Sanguine Palm. 

  “Awooo!” The Pale Wolf King let out a pained howl. 

  Xue Yuan raised his hand again, slamming his palm directly onto the top of the beast king’s head. 

  Crack! 

  The bloody palm was extremely powerful. One moment, a blood-red palm print appeared, and in the next, the Pale Wolf King was dead on the ground bleeding from its eyes and nose as its aura disappeared. 

  The Pale Wolf King had been slain. 

  The ability user and the ancient warrior from the patrol team were quite shocked when they saw this, looking at Xue Yuan with a trace of awe. 

  “Thanks for your help, bro!” The ancient warrior said with a smile. 

  Xue Yuan ignored the man, reaching out with a hand like no one else’s into the Pale Wolf King’s chest cavity. As the hand pierced into the flesh, it made a mess and coated the arm in a layer of blood. 

  Soon, the Pale Wolf King’s energy crystal core was ripped out and placed into his spatial rune equipment. 

  That made the patrol team members stop in their tracks. 

  “Bro, we spent a long time fighting that Pale Wolf King. You killed it in the end, but shouldn’t we be splitting the spoils? Don’t you think it’s a bit rude to be behaving like this?” 

  Xue Yuan revealed a dagger in his hand that was shaped similar to that of a scalpel, designed to harvest materials. 

  He glared at the ancient warrior before smirking. “You’re both trash and you want me to share the spoils with you?” 

  The man starred furiously at Xue Yuan. 

  “What did you say, kid?” The man was a rank higher than Xue Yuan and believed that Xue Yuan was about as young as he looked. That did not stop him from having the desire to teach the little punk a lesson. 

  “Do you know whose territory this is? You can’t just do whatever you want here, be sensible and take those out before you humiliate yourself, bro!” 

  “Humiliate myself?” Xue Yuan chuckled, striking his hand out. 

  The attack was quite straightforward and not very fast. 

  The ancient warrior saw this and was a little bit nervous, he had seen what that palm could do and knew that Xue Yuan was tough but he did not want to admit it! 

  With his internal strength condensed in his palm, he fiercely struck out! 

  Slap! 

  Their palms collided. The smirk lingered on Xue Yuan’s face, and the strangest thing was that his eyes began to turn blood-red. 

  The ancient warrior suddenly let out a scream. 

  His entire palm, including his bones, had melted. His meridians had been scoured and the flesh now a bloody pulp. In the blink of an eye, his hand had melted into a stump. 

  Even though he had destroyed his opponent’s hand, Xue Yuan did not plan on sparing him so easily. 

  “I didn’t get to practice some blood sucking today, good thing there’s plenty of people here so come at me!” 

  Xue Yuan once more raised his hand, bringing it down toward the top of the ancient warrior’s skull. 

  It was at this moment that another figure suddenly appeared. 

  A black cloak, under the cloak was a combat uniform that glowed with silver light, and even a fleeting glance made it known that it was made out of beast king materials. 

  A pair of black daggers jumped out from under the cloak and cut at Xue Yuan’s neck. 

  This person was Qin Feng! 

  “Ah!” Xue Yuan croaked but quickly changed his stance as a blood-red light condensed in his hand and shot out toward Qin Feng. 

  However, the condensed internal force blast was blocked by a wave of internal power. Qin Feng’s internal force was huge, how could he have been hit by the other’s blood colored internal force. 

  Not giving the other another chance to fight back, Qin Feng relied on his tough physique and speed to pierce through Xue Yuan’s chest with a dagger. 

  “Pff!” 

  A soft sound was heard as Xue Yuan stopped moving, he looked down at the dagger that was stuck inside his chest with disbelief. 

  It hit something vital, there was no doubt that he was going to die!

  Chapter 274: A Generation of Monsters Damned to Die In the Wilderness

  Xue Yuan could hardly believe it. 

  He was his family’s most talented user, and had already laid a foundation even before he awakened his ancient martial arts. He could kill people when he was ten, and by the time he was nineteen he had already mastered the Sanguine Arts and even the Sanguine Palm. He did not expect that he would die. Especially not today, not at the hands of some unknown person in a weak little colony. 

  Xue Yuan’s eyes carried a loathing stare. 

  “Who, Who are…… ngh……” Blood began to pour out of his mouth. When he grabbed Qin Feng’s wrist, he was unable to muster any internal force. 

  “Asteroid Assimilation!” 

  Qin Feng absorbed all of Xue Yuan’s internal force. Although there was not much in an F-tier aptitude user, it was better than nothing and could not be wasted. 

  By then, Xue Yuan had completely lost the capability to fight back. 

  “You want to know who I am? How could you remember your enemy after killing so many people?” Qin Feng replied in a hoarse voice. In his mind, he was starting to recall a memory before his rebirth. 

  Back then, Qin Feng had reached the age of nineteen and it was the third year since he had been injected by the Awakening Serum. After a lot of battles, he traveled extensively and eventually reached E-tier. 

  It could be said that he had already left the shadow of that laboratory by that time, having gained a few close friends who had even agreed to reach D-tier and go to the front together. 

  As a result, they encountered Xue Yuan during a logistical escort mission and it ended up with the entire platoon of three hundred people, people who he had fought alongside with, to all die tragically! 

  Qin Feng too was hit square in the chest by that palm attack, the only thing he could have done then was breathe. 

  Too many people died during that battle, and even with one tenth of the absorption ability remaining, the number of deaths around him managed to preserve his life, saving him from death. 

  Bearing the loss of three hundred people he used to know almost broke him. 

  Xue Yuan, that was a name in his turbulent life that he would never forget. A name that he wanted to set aflame and grind to dust. 

  He had no way of revenge before his rebirth. 

  Xue Yuan advanced too quickly, by the time Qin Feng reached A-tier, Xue Yuan was also A-tier and always stronger than him. Just like Liu Meng with his Asteroid Assimilation, he was a heinous devil. 

  If the two really fought, it would be Qin Feng who would wind up dead. 

  Now, it was completely different! 

  Xue Yuan had not risen yet, and as for the rest of the Xue Family, Qin Feng was not afraid of them! 

  Today was the day that he turned things around. His eyes were filled with a bloodthirsty, murderous intent but it was covered up by his mask, making it impossible to distinguish his emotions. 

  Soon after, Xue Yuan had all of his internal force taken away, and with his heart pierced, the hand that was gripping Qin Feng’s wrist finally fell. 

  Qin Feng drew out the dagger along with a spurt of blood. 

  Xue Yuan’s body collapsed to the ground after no longer having support. This all happened within a short span of time. 

  Nobody could react at all. 

  At this moment, a loud shout came through. “Cease!” 

  Near the beast wave, a giant tree branch was knocked down and the suppressing aura of an E-tier ancient warrior began to roll over the entire field. 

  It was not just the aptitude users but the entire beast wave of Pale Wolves began to flee with their tails between their legs. 

  The beast king was dead, the smaller wolves could not maintain their rank and file, and they began to break apart but nobody cheered at this scene. 

  All because of the ancient warrior that had suddenly appeared! 

  E-tier. 

  For the aptitude users of Hanchuankou, that was the level of generals and mayors. Such presence always left people in awe. 

  Now, this person was angry, would it not mean that more blood would stain the ground? 

  The ancient warrior rushed forward with incredible speed, closing the distance within four to five seconds. 

  “Young Master!” 

  The man cradled Xue Yuan, eyes widening at the realization that the wound in his chest would not stop bleeding and that his aura had disappeared. 

  He was dead! 

  Even if there was any sort of divine intervention there was no way to save him! 

  “You!” The man lifted his head, staring daggers at Qin Feng. 

  The people around them finally saw this man’s face. He looked to be in his fifties, had the strength of an E5-tier ancient warrior, and had a sinister expression on his face that was only emphasized by the scar that traveled down from his cheek to his neck! 

  This person’s appearance made the onlookers stare blankly for a moment. 

  “Beep beep beep!” 

  Those nearby did a scan with their communicators and soon found out who they were looking at! 

  “He’s a lackey from the Xue family!” 

  “The Asura Palm, Zhang Wen!” 

  “A wanted E-tier criminal!” 

  Everyone was suddenly more afraid, which was crippling under the effects of this menacing aura. A few began to slowly back away with difficulty and some even wanted to crawl away. 

  Zhang Wen was definitely someone who would kill a man without so much as batting an eye. What was more, the man had just called the recently deceased ‘Young Master’, which made them change their view on things. 

  “The dead guy’s from the Xue family!” 

  “Wait, the Xue family’s young master died near us?” 

  “He’s gonna kill us, isn’t he?” 

  That was very possible. Those with dark influences, even when they had only lost one member, would go out on rampages to eradicate whole families and wipe out entire bases just to get revenge. 

  Those in the field were no match against Zhang Wen. They glared at Qin Feng’s back, all blaming this stranger for being the cause of their troubles. 

  “Lad, you’re going to die today. No, I’m not just going to kill you, I’m going to make you beg me to put you down!” Zhang Wen roared. He was in charge of bringing the young master to the Tomb and because he was wanted as a criminal he could not be near Xue Yuan. 

  Not only that, Xue Yuan had enough strength that even an F9-tier aptitude user could not face him, but this random stranger had just appeared out of nowhere and killed him with a simple dagger stab. 

  If he did not capture Qin Feng, he was going to have a hard time explaining this to his bosses. No, even if he did capture Qin Feng, he was still going to get in trouble! This made Zhang Wen hate Qin Feng even more, he wanted to tear this person into pieces! 

  “Me, die? It won’t necessarily be me who’s dying today. Since you’re on the side of an evil-doer, you must not be a good person. If that’s the case you’ll die too!” Qin Feng said, suddenly approaching as dark runes began to envelop him. 

  “Phantom Steps!” 

  Qin Feng shifted, afterimages appearing where he once stood. He was like a ghost, briefly revealing his murderous intent as he rushed toward Zhang Wen. 

  “You got guts!” Zhang Wen was furious, raising his hand to try and slap Qin Feng. “Sanguine Palm!” 

  While Zhang Wen was only a servant of the Xue family and the moves that he was taught were not as powerful as Xue Yuan’s moves, he had a powerful internal force and his Sanguine Palm brought with it a gust of bloody rain. 

  There were countless souls that had been bloodied by his hands. The giant palm print began to approach Qin Feng. 

  Qin Feng did not face it head on, choosing to avoid it. He was extra nimble with Phantom Motion Steps activated. He did not want to use the move before because he was afraid that people might notice the dark runes, but now he did not care, his body was almost entirely shrouded in black mist. 

  His movements were very familiar to the eyes but nobody would suspect that he was the illustrious mayor of Fengli, after all, the Spectre Motion Steps was a very common move among ancient warriors. 

  Since he used those moves so well, it seemed quite out of the ordinary. With a stagger, he had already flanked Zhang Wen before bringing his daggers toward his opponent’s waist at an awkward angle. 

  Too fast! 

  Zhang Wen was surprised! He would have definitely been stabbed at such speed but he steeled himself, preparing to take the blow from Qin Feng. 

  He swung his hand, wanting to trade a blow for a blow!
