1389 He Must Be Pretending to Be a Pig! (4)
Boom!
An extremely sharp, gold colored beam of light slashed down, aiming for w.a.n.g Teng’s head. It was about to chop him in two.
The young hero looked up and countered with a fist. A terrifying energy surged out.
Boom!
!!
The fist swept through and shattered the golden ax’s glow. Then, it went straight for the bearded man.
Splat!
The latter vomited a mouthful of blood, his face full of disbelief. His whole body was thrown back like a kite with a broken string and crashed forcefully onto the ground.
“Retreat!” Harrett was in shock. He instantly grabbed a hold of Billbrom and turned to flee without any hesitation.
The other ten planetary-stage helpers followed suit. No one dared to linger.
Their boss was running away. They didn’t have the courage to face such a strong opponent on their own.
“Can you even leave?” said a voice.
The next second, w.a.n.g Teng appeared in front of them like a ghost and flashed them a smirk.
“Who are you?” Harrett’s face turned black, having no other choice but to stop. His back was drenched in cold sweat, not daring to move one bit.
He felt as if having become the target of a universe behemoth. He would surely be in a lot of pain if he tried to run, just as it happened to Billbrom, or even be killed directly.
This young guy is not just a simple celestial warrior!
“A pa.s.serby,” w.a.n.g Teng replied nonchalantly. He shamelessly copied what the silver-haired girl had told him.
The corners of both Harrett and Billbrom’s lips twitched.
To h.e.l.l with pa.s.sing by.
If he were just a pa.s.serby, he wouldn’t have attacked them.
“Sir, our leader is a heaven stage warrior, and the Black Leaf Mercenary Team has five heaven stage martial warriors as a whole. Can you give us some face?” Harrett said.
“Are you threatening me?” w.a.n.g Teng tilted his head and asked.
Harrett felt gooseb.u.mps up to his scalp when he met w.a.n.g Teng’s gaze. He replied in a hurry, “No, I would never!”
“I think you would. You’re already threatening me,” w.a.n.g Teng said.
Harrett cursed in his heart.
The youth was fearless, even after hearing about their mercenary group’s might. He didn’t show any signs of terror, making Harrett wonder if the fellow had someone powerful to rely on.
“Harrett, he won’t let us go. Let’s fight.” Billbrom spat out a mouthful of blood and spit with a ruthless gaze.
“Courageous,” w.a.n.g Teng commented.
Silence.
The two of them felt exasperated.
They exchanged glances and abruptly dashed out.
“Kill!”
“Kill!”
Boom!
Both executed their ultimate techniques. Harrett’s long sword produced a blue glow while Billbrom’s battleax released an even bigger ax glow. They hurled their attacks viciously at the young hero.
“Sigh, why do this?”
w.a.n.g Teng shook his head. He didn’t use any special skills, only an ordinary punch.
Boom!
Powerful strength surged out. A frightening force attack was sent from w.a.n.g Teng’s arm, and rushed towards his two opponents like a dragon.
Both the blue sword glow and the golden ax glow shattered upon contacting the fist aura.
Boom!
The punch landed on his two opponents.
Splat!
Both of them spewed blood and turned extremely pale, as if struck by lightning. They weren’t thrown back this time, but the fist aura pressed them down, making them lie on the ground in a humiliating manner.
Tap, tap, tap…
w.a.n.g Teng walked over confidently and squatted down to look at them.
“You’re not a celestial warrior. Who are you?” Harrett looked up with difficulty and stared at the young man in bewilderment. His voice was squeezed out of his throat.
“You’re wrong. I’m just a celestial warrior pa.s.sing by. You’re the weak one,” w.a.n.g Teng replied calmly.
“How’s that possible?” Harrett was in disbelief. He couldn’t accept this.
They were mercenaries from the Universe Mercenaries Alliance. They had been through all kinds of dangerous places, so how could they be weak?
Still, they had completely lost to that young warrior.
One fist.
One fist they weren’t able to counter. What strength is this?
They couldn’t wrap their heads around it, nor did they believe w.a.n.g Teng’s words. He wasn’t a celestial warrior, that was for certain.
They felt that the young man’s celestial aura was just pretense. He was pretending to be a pig.
Yes, that’s got to be it.
This fellow’s pretending to be a pig to get the tiger!
w.a.n.g Teng didn’t know what crossed their minds. No one believed him, even when he was telling the truth. What could he do?
He asked, “How did you get to this planet?”
“You’re in a lot of trouble for offending the Black Leaf Mercenary Team. Our leader won’t let you off easily,” said Billbrom, gritting his teeth, along with a hideous expression. He felt like crying out of frustration after enduring two punches from the young man.
“Who cares about your black leaf or white leaf snake? I’ve never heard of it, so it must be some unknown group. Five heaven stage martial warriors? What can five of them do? Don’t try to scare me,” said w.a.n.g Teng scoffing in contempt.
Billbrom and Harett were startled.
Their captor was definitely someone with a powerful background.
He didn’t care for five heaven-stage warriors. Is he a talent groomed by some powerful faction?
The more they thought about it, the more it rang true. They were astounded and bitter, feeling a bit wary.
“Looks like you won’t tell me if I don’t do something,” w.a.n.g Teng said. The Lightning Slap appeared in his hand and he swung it above their heads.
“What are you going to do?” They were aghast.
“Don’t be afraid. It’ll end soon.” w.a.n.g Teng brought the Lightning Slap down.
Bang, bang…
Boom, boom…
The strikes resounded in the sky, sending chills up one’s spine.
The other ten planetary-stage warriors turned pale when they saw this happen. They swallowed saliva uncontrollably, while the urge to escape rose. However, an eerie atmosphere hung over them and froze their legs. No one dared to take a step out.
w.a.n.g Teng stopped after some time. He looked at the two swollen heads and asked, “Feel like talking now?”
“I, I…” Harrett’s face was no longer handsome. It was disgustingly swollen; that was even worse than death for him.
Billbrom stared at w.a.n.g Teng in horror. He had no courage left to retort.
“Answer my question.” w.a.n.g Teng frowned, since they had yet to say a thing.
The two mercenaries shuddered and spilled the beans.
They found out about planet Light Velvet in a notebook that’s a few hundred years old? Looks like Veblen isn’t the only one who’s been here. w.a.n.g Teng’s eyes s.h.i.+mmered, finally understanding why the mercenaries had found their way over.
The leader they mentioned was the mercenary team head’s younger sister. After learning about the planet, she was tempted by one of the team members to go there and hunt for treasure to get her brother a birthday gift.
What a coincidence.
They arrived right when our hero did.
This means that their team head doesn’t know about the planet yet, w.a.n.g Teng thought. He heaved a sigh of relief.
There were five heaven stage warriors in their team. w.a.n.g Teng wasn’t afraid, but it would be troublesome if the rest of the mercenary team learned about the planet’s existence.
Since only those few on the planet knew, he needed to hurry and register it under his name. If not, more people would fight for owners.h.i.+p.
Of course, he had his own plans; he wasn’t as selfless as Veblen.
The whole planet was a treasure. He would reap great profits if developed well.
That move would benefit the locals as well.
Still, it would be better to ask their opinion first. He wouldn’t force them if they were unwilling. He would just collect more attributes and leave afterwards.
With that thought in mind, w.a.n.g Teng turned to look at the furry creatures.
They felt shocked, and took a few steps back while looking at w.a.n.g Teng fearfully.
“Don’t be afraid; I’m a good person.” w.a.n.g Teng’s gaze landed on one of the furry creatures. He communicated with the latter by releasing wavelengths using spiritual power.
