Chapter 13: It’s Time for Li Qiang to Take the Blame!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Leng Ruzhi drank the perfect-grade Healing Potion and all her injuries healed instantaneously.

Just as she was about to charge toward those Capricorns to continue her combat, she caught a glimpse of Chen Feng from the corner of her eyes.

Leng Ruzhi was momentarily stunned when she witnessed that scene. Then, she immediately changed directions and flew toward Chen Feng. She grabbed Chen Feng’s arm and pulled him back toward the forest.

When they were some distance away from the center, Leng Ruzhi checked to see if the Capricorn was chasing after them. When she was certain that they were nowhere to be seen, she heaved a sigh of relief. She turned to look at Chen Feng with a serious expression and even a hint of anger.

“Didn’t I tell you not to go in?”

“Do you know how dangerous it was just now? That was a superior-grade tier 3 dire beast, the Capricorn!”

Chen Feng shrugged when he heard her words.

“I saw that you were injured just now and wanted to help attract the attention of one or two Capricorns,” he explained.

Leng Ruzhi was slightly stunned to hear that.

“Chen Feng entered that dangerous place to help me?” she thought.

Her anger had long dissipated, but she still maintained a serious expression.

She said solemnly, “I appreciate your good intention, but don’t do that again.”

“This battle might be a little too dangerous for you. You should just stand there and watch.”

Although Leng Ruzhi’s words implied that Chen Feng was very weak, she had good intentions.

She was stunned by Chen Feng’s answer.

“But if you die here, I won’t be able to leave the forest safely alone,” Chen Feng said.

Chen Feng’s answer was beyond Leng Ruzhi’s expectations.

She was stunned for a moment before her expression immediately turned cold.

Originally, she thought that Chen Feng was worried about her safety. Unexpectedly, he was only worried about not being able to leave the forest alive!

That made sense. Someone like him who exploited loopholes in the rules would not care about ethics.

After thinking this through, Leng Ruzhi turned around to face Chen Feng.

“You don’t have to worry about that,” she said coldly.

“Since I’ve implicated you, I am obligated to bring you out of the forest unscathed.”

“And, I will not die.”

With that, she walked toward the empty space in the center again.

However, this time, she seemed to be more serious.

The interspatial ring in her hand flashed, and a few bottles of various potions immediately appeared in her left hand.

Seeing this, Chen Feng clicked his tongue.

A perfect-grade Strength Potion.

A perfect-grade Speed Potion.

A perfect-grade Stability Potion.

A perfect-grade Psychic Potion.

A perfect-grade Mind Potion.

She was determined to kill the dire beast that was above her level by spending all that money!

It seemed that the rumors of Leng Ruzhi’s family being powerful were not groundless, after all.

Since Leng Ruzhi had so many resources, Chen Feng did not have to worry about her anymore.

He knew that Leng Ruzhi would not die. Even if she was seriously injured, she could return to the forest to drink some potions to heal her injuries.

Moreover, she hailed from a rich family, so it would not hurt to waste a few extra potions.

However, Chen Feng was unsure if Leng Ruzhi would fly into a rage when she realized that the golden box had already been taken away.

After Leng Ruzhi drank a few bottles of potions, all her basic attributes increased greatly.

Her figure flashed and she appeared in front of one of the Capricorns. She cut off the horns on its head.

This action did not make the Capricorns afraid. Instead, it angered them even more. The five Capricorns immediately attacked Leng Ruzhi, but she dodged them all.

From this exchange alone, Chen Feng knew that Leng Ruzhi would most likely not be in any danger.

“In that case, I should continue working.”

Chen Feng immediately walked deeper into the forest and began searching for other metal boxes.

After all, who would complain about having too many spoils of war?

Somewhere in the inner ring of the forest.

Four people were confronting each other with swords drawn. The atmosphere was very tense.

The man in the lead was dressed in dark green clothes. His hair was combed neatly and tied into a ponytail at the back of his head.

Vines surrounded him, looking like poisonous snakes.

On the other side, the woman in the lead was wearing a light blue robe. She had long, snow-white hair which framed her face in a glacial cascade and hung to her waist.

These two people were Lin Yu and Bai Hong. Both of them had intermediate classes.

Between them, there was a metal box on a tree branch.

Once there was a conflict of interest, it would be difficult to maintain peace.

“Bai Hong, this metal box is mine. I advise you to give up.”

“Without the help of others, you’re not my match.”

Lin Yu had a faint smile on his face as if he felt victory already in his grasp.

However, Bai Hong did not back down at all. She stared at Lin Yu with bright eyes.

“Is that so?”

“I know that your class has a certain advantage here.”

“But in my opinion, my team’s classes sseemto be more compatible.”

“That teammate of yours doesn’t seem to be able to help at all, right?”

Hearing Bai Hong’s blatant mockery, Lin Yu’s teammate immediately blushed.

Bai Hong was right. His class was Blessing Master, and his ability was to increase the basic attributes for himself or others.

He seemed to be very omnipotent.

However, with his current strength, the increase he could provide was very little.

On the surface, he was omnipotent, but in reality, he was useless.

On Bai Hong’s side.

Her class was Airflow Master and her teammate’s class was Berserker.

Bai Hong’s teammate had explosive power, and Bai Hong could provide a shield and agility enhancement.

No matter how one looked at it, they were in a very advantageous position.

Bai Hong’s team could totally take Lin Yu’s team on!

Hearing Bai Hong’s words, Lin Yu did not panic at all.

“Looks like you’ve completely wasted the past two years.”

“Don’t tell me you’re naive enough to think that…”

“It’s not that easy to match up with a team that has the home advantage!”

Following that, Lin Yu pushed his hands forward.

Immediately, the vines surrounding his body seemed to come alive and shot straight at Bai Hong and her teammate.

“Be careful!”

Bai Hong immediately raised her hand.

The speed of the airflow around the two of them suddenly increased. It seemed that this was the true appearance of the airflow shield.

Bai Hong’s teammate did not hesitate. He picked up the long saber in his hand and rushed out, slashing left and right at the vines.

For a moment, these vines could not do anything to them.

However, what they did not know was…

Someone was hiding in a secluded spot and observing the battle between both teams.

“Looks like Lin Yu is going to win…”

That person thought to himself.

Just as he thought of this, he saw a few vines suddenly shoot out from behind Bai Hong and her teammate. Those vines wrapped around their ankles and lifted them into the air.

Bai Hong was startled.

So this was Lin Yu’s real strategy!

Lin Yu made such a ferocious frontal assault against them that Bai Hong completely forgot the possibility of getting ambushed from behind.

This was also because she had too little combat experience.

When Lin Yu saw Bai Hong and her companion being hung up, the corners of his mouth finally curled into a smug smile.

“Hahaha! This is what it means by having a home advantage!”

He had just spat out the last word.

A figure suddenly darted out of the bushes and arrived beside the metal box in a flash, grabbing it in his arms.

“Gentlemen, I’m sorry. This metal box is mine.”

With that, he rushed into the forest.

All of this happened too suddenly, so much so that Bai Hong and Lin Yu could not react immediately.

By the time they came back to their senses, the roars of dire beasts had already sounded from their surroundings.

From that, it was evident that once the boxes in the forest were taken away, they would immediately attract the surrounding dire beasts.

Lin Yu wanted to retrieve the metal box but was blocked by a huge White-Furred Ape.

Helpless, he could only control the vines to let go of Bai Hong’s team first and solve the problem before him.

“Li Qiang, I’ll remember this!” he yelled furiously.

In the distance, Li Qiang, who was holding the metal box, smiled slightly. His figure transformed and his appearance changed.

It was Chen Feng’s shadow clone!

“Hehe. That’s exactly what I want.”

“It’s time for Li Qiang to take the blame!”
