Chapter 1396 Deviant Bloods


1396 Deviant Bloods


After receiving his father"s orders, Xiong Lu left to ponder about his decision.


"f.u.c.k, what should I do now?"


Due to his immense pride, Xiong Lu found it incredibly difficult to forgive Yuan, who spat in his face, as well as ruining his image and damaging his reputation before his colleagues.


Xiong Lu was someone who did not know defeat and stood above the majority of people in the world ever since birth. He always dominated every ranking of every game that he"s ever touched, and he was always in the spotlight. However, things have changed since the introduction of Cultivation Online, the most popular game in history by far.


Due to Cultivation Online"s popularity and exciting gameplay, Xiong Lu had never felt a stronger desire to dominate everyone else. Unfortunately, due to the appearance of Player Yuan, someone n.o.body knew about, his presence within Cultivation Online might as well be nonexistent.


No matter what he did or how much money he spent on the game, he could not seem to catch up to Player Yuan, who was achieving seemingly impossible feats left and right as though it was normal gameplay.


This caused Xiong Lu to fall into depression for some time until he met Zhaohui, an Exile, who pulled him out of the darkness and gave him a chance to catch up to Yuan.


Things got better from that point. He acquired powerful treasures and techniques that even he couldn"t purchase with money, and his cultivation soared with the guidance of Zhaohui, who claimed to be an immortal cultivator.


Everything looked great for Xiong Lu… until Yuan showed up with an even stronger Exile, slaughtering Zhaohui, his only hope of surpa.s.sing Yuan. It was at this point that Xiong Lu vowed to completely and utterly destroy Yuan, no matter the cost. Thus, he cooked up a plan to destroy Yuan with the help of his colleagues.


After gathering hundreds of Exiles, Xiong Lu was confident that he would finally be able to deal with Yuan, but as though fate was purposefully messing with him, not only did he fail to destroy Yuan, but he suffered an embarra.s.sing defeat at the hands of Yuan, even dying for the first time.


After recalling everything that Yuan had done to him, the anger dormant within him awakened, spewing forth like a volcanic eruption.


"You want me to lower my head and act like nothing happened? Never! I"d rather die than lower myself to that b.a.s.t.a.r.d who took everything from me!" Xiong Lu clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, his eyes filled with resolution.


He immediately retrieved his phone and started dialing a certain number.


A voice answered after a few rings, "What do you want?"


"I want your strongest fighters—all of them!"


"We have 1 who recently entered Spirit Master and 8 peak Spirit Warriors. What kind of job is this?"


"The kind that makes someone disappear." Xiong Lu responded in a cold voice.


"..."


After a brief moment of silence, the voice returned, "Very well. Who"s the target? We"ll calculate the price based on the difficulty."


"Player Yuan—also known as Yu Tian."


"?!?!?!"


The person behind the phone was left terrified after hearing Yuan"s name.


"You want us to a.s.sa.s.sinate Yu Tian?! f.u.c.k! Do you not remember what happened to the Young Master of the Zheng Family after he hired a hit on Yu Tian?! He was annihilated—


along with the group that accepted the job! This is suicide! You might as well ask us to kill ourselves!"


Only a few people know of the truth behind Zheng Wemin"s disappearance to this day.


Xiong Lu sneered, "Hmph! Zheng Wemin failed because he hired a bunch of useless tras.h.!.+ Are you telling me that the Deviant Bloods are comparing themselves to such n.o.bodies?!"


After a moment of silence, the person said, "We don"t have any intel on Yu Tian ever since he entered the Dragon Spiral Mountain. However, we do have some intel on those living with him. The people staying with him are from families that used to live in seclusion, only revealing themselves recently. There are also rumors that these families already knew the existence of cultivation and had been cultivating years before Cultivation Online"s creation."


"So what?" Xiong Lu sneered.


"Just this knowledge alone will increase the difficulty to the max. We don"t know our opponent"s prowess, and with what happened to Zheng Wemin, I do not think the others will accept this mission—"


"A blank check." Xiong Lu suddenly interrupted.


"Excuse me?" The voice sounded dumbfounded.


"I will give a blank check to anyone that dares to go after Yu Tian. Tell them that, and call me once you have an answer." Xiong Lu hung up without waiting for a response.


To give a blank check was essentially to give the workers as much money as they wanted, which could easily go south, especially with money-hungry a.s.sa.s.sins, but Xiong Lu was prepared to spend millions—even billions of dollars if he could get rid of Yuan.


While he waited for the call back from the Deviant Bloods, an extremely dangerous and ruthless group of elite a.s.sa.s.sins, Xiong Lu decided to take a look at Yuan"s residence.

However, not even two minutes after he left his house and started making his way down the mountain, Xiong Lu noticed a group of individuals quickly approaching from behind.

He turned around to see a group of young men and women walking down the mountain in ragged clothes, looking worse than even beggars. They also appeared to be injured with bruises all over their body.


However, as a cultivator, Xiong Lu could instantly tell that this group of young men and women were actually powerful cultivators just from their formidable aura alone.


"T-This aura… Spirit Grandmasters?! Impossible! How can they already be Spirit Grandmasters when they look to be around my age?!" Xiong Lu was in disbelief, as he was only a Spirit Warrior himself after cultivating with a Divine-rank cultivation technique.


"But their aura is unmistakably that of a Spirit Grandmaster! Where did such monsters come from?! How did they reach that level so quickly? Moreover, where are they coming from?! We are already at the top of the mountain, and my Xiong Family is located closest to the peak with n.o.body living any closer!" Xiong Lu pondered to himself, wearing a deep frown on his face.
