“We must avenge our leader!” When they saw that Ye Tianshun and Soaring Cloud Sect’s main force had turned around to fight the Mutants head-on, Chen Xuanming and Feng Xuanyi followed suit!
Although Ma Xuantong’s favoritism toward Ye Tianshun made this pair of brothers very dissatisfied, the fact that their leader had been killed made them grieve. So, when they saw that Ye Tianshun was going to kill those Mutants, they decided to join in on the attack.
“Younger brother Jiang, what do we do?” Bai Wanli asked. These martial artists were shocked by the fact that Ma Xuantong had been killed and they were filled with righteous indignation. However, from the information Jiang Fei had provided, they knew that these Mutants were just a bait. So, they did not rush in immediately.
“Mmm…” Jiang Fei did not speak. His brows furrowed for the umpteenth time. He did not expect that the people from Soaring Cloud Sect to suddenly rush in and fight the Mutants. Charging into the battle irrationally like that was equivalent to suicide!
“F*ck!” After two seconds of hesitation, Jiang Fei cursed. Although he clearly knew that these people from Soaring Cloud Sect were not going to win the battle, he could not just stay there and watch these people rush into the Mutants’ ambush!
“Go!” Jiang Fei clenched his teeth and issued an order.
“Alright! I was just waiting for you to say that!” Zhu Tianfei smiled. He could not wait to fight with the Mutants.
Zhu Tianfei was a typical simple-minded man. He did not know anything about ambushes and strategies. These issues should be left to brainy people like Jiang Fei and Bai Wanli. All he had to do was execute the command and lead the martial artists into battle!
Since Jiang Fei permitted them to go, Zhu Tianfei thought that Jiang Fei had a way to deal with the enemy’s ambush. So, he did not think much about it. He immediately led the martial artists down the hill. They joined the people from Soaring Cloud Sect and started to chase the Mutants that fled.
The Mutants were way slower than the martial artists. After just two minutes, the martial artists had almost caught up to the thirty Mutants!
“Hmm? F*ck, you’re scum!” Jiang Fei managed to get to the front of the team soon after he rushed down the hill. At this time, he noticed that Ye Tianshun had quietly retreated to the middle of the team.
The old man was obviously planning to take advantage of the situation and make use of the people around him. He was just going to hide at the back and wait to reap the rewards!
“Be careful, dear! This guy wants to kill you!” All of a sudden, Ariel’s voice rang in Jiang Fei’s heart.
Although it was inconvenient for her to participate in the battle directly because of her status as a Level 5 Metahuman, she was always around Jiang Fei, protecting him.
So far, although the Mutants and the martial artists had already had a big fight, the strong Level 5 powerhouses of both sides had not participated in the war. This was akin to having two countries that were not willing to use nuclear weapons in war. The power of a Level 5 Metahuman was too destructive. If they attacked, the war between the two sides would become a race to slaughter low-leveled Metahumans, which would eventually lead to the extinction of Metahumans who were lower than Level 5.
This was because it was very difficult for Level 5 Metahumans to kill each other. They had to have an absolute advantage over their enemies and had to use a Godblade to kill them. Otherwise, Level 5 Metahumans were immortal. However, it was difficult to satisfy these conditions. So, if Level 5 Metahumans got involved in the war, they would definitely kill the low-leveled Metahumans on the enemy’s side. It would be an absolute disaster for the entire Metahuman community.
Therefore, even if their side got defeated in the war, the Level 5 powerhouses would generally not intervene as long as they were not faced with the situation of being slaughtered and becoming extinct.
Precisely because of this, even though Ariel was always with Jiang Fei, she could not directly intervene in his matters.
“Isn’t that normal? This old man has been wanting to kill me for a long time.” Jiang Fei was not too bothered by Ariel’s words. After all, ever since Ye Zhangfa died, Jiang Fei had been a constant thorn on Ye Tianshun’s side. This was no longer news to Jiang Fei.
“No! This time, his murderous intent is particularly strong! And it’s not just limited to you. It’s inclusive of Bai Wanli and the other martial artists!” Ariel said quickly.
“Mmm?!” This time, Ariel’s words caught Jiang Fei’s attention.
Jiang Fei could understand if Ye Tianshun wanted to kill him. But him wanting to kill the other martial artists as well was very out of place!
“0541! Scan!” Jiang Fei ordered in his heart.
Swoosh…
After receiving Jiang Fei’s order, 0541 immediately released a scanning wave.
“Reporting, captain. I’ve discovered electronic signals coming from Ye Tianshun and those from Soaring Cloud Sect who managed to escape death!” 0541 soon came up with scanning results that shocked Jiang Fei.
“What!?” Although Jiang Fei had only asked 0541 to make a scan because he had doubts, when the results were placed in front of him, it was not something he could accept so easily!
Soaring Cloud Sect, the top martial arts sect in China, had betrayed the Martial Arts Alliance!
Soaring Cloud Sect had sided with the Mutants! It was not just Jiang Fei. No martial artist would be able to accept such shocking news!
However, that was the truth! 0541’s scan results would never go wrong!
Immediately, Jiang Fei quickly linked the shocking news to Ye Tianshun’s abnormal behavior. Originally, he had been like a stray dog that was being chased. However, he actually turned around and wanted to fight back as soon as he saw the reinforcements. This was definitely a deliberate attempt to attract the martial artists into the encirclement of the Mutants!
“F*ck!” Jiang Fei slapped his thighs. He did not think that Ye Tianshun would actually go that far!
“Everyone, stop chasing! Retreat immediately!” Jiang Fei immediately stopped in his tracks, then ordered loudly.
“Ahh?!”
“What’s going on?!”
…
As soon as Jiang Fei issued the order, the Androids stopped moving. However, all the martial artists were confused.
“Younger brother Jiang, what happened?” Zhu Tianfei ran to Jiang Fei’s side and asked in a dissatisfied tone.
“There’s no time to explain! Everyone retreat immediately! If you don’t obey the order, you’ll get injured or you’ll die!” Jiang Fei clenched his teeth.
“I…” Although Zhu Tianfei was dissatisfied with Jiang Fei’s orders, Jiang Fei had already established authority among them during this time. However unhappy he was with the decision, Zhu Tianfei still obeyed Jiang Fei’s order.
“Mr. Jiang, what’s the matter?! Are we not going to avenge our leader?” Chen Xuanming stared into Jiang Fei’s eyes and asked. His eyes were bloodshot. The fact that Ma Xuantong had been killed came as a huge blow to him.
“There’s no time to explain. Obey the order,” Jiang Fei said coldly. Although there were no electronic equipment on Chen Xuanming and the others, Jiang Fei no longer had any trust in the people from Soaring Cloud Sect now!
“No! We must avenge leader Ma!” As soon as he realized that the martial artists had stopped chasing, Ye Tianshun who had no idea that he had already been exposed jumped out in objection!
