Chapter 494: Chapter 492 Cangyan
Wen Wen’s subordinates were busy with the monsters, and Wen Wen himself was, of course, not idle either. He cleared the monsters as he had before while looking for the rebellious Rangers.
However, Wen Wen’s luck did not seem very good at the moment. He had been searching for a long time without encountering any Disaster Level monsters, and the Disaster Level wild beast monsters rarely had any special abilities.
As a result, Wen Wen had only managed to capture two monsters after wandering around for a long time, one being a round-faced fat chicken and the other a Green Snake.
The round-faced fat chicken was the same one Wen Wen had encountered during his last visit. In the intervening half-year, it might have undergone some unique experiences and transformed into a long-legged, long-footed, and silly-headed fighting chicken.
It was at Disaster Level, with strong close combat abilities. Its mastery of simple hand-to-hand combat was leagues above Wen Wen, making it a somewhat useful monster.
As for the Green Snake, Wen Wen had captured it simply because he thought it looked nice.
Moreover, based on Wen Wen’s observations, the snake was a little female, so he intended to give it to Three Cubs as a wife. Three Cubs would probably be happy about that.
Don’t ask how he observed that. If you ask, he used a little stick to poke and prod.
But beyond these, Wen Wen hadn’t captured much else. The efficiency of the Rangers and the special operations teams was too high, and those monsters emitting blue light were too conspicuous. After the Rangers had swept through, the area was practically a river of blood, making it difficult for Wen Wen to find suitable opponents.
He flew high into the sky, looking down upon the nearby area. Suddenly, Wen Wen spotted a flare’s glow in the distance, which might be a distress signal.
"For the Rangers to be asking for help, it must be a big catch. I hope it’s one of those rebellious Rangers with Catastrophe Level power," he said.
With no monsters to capture, Wen Wen flew towards that spot without hesitation.
...
Gu Panxi’s hair was soaked with sweat as she glared at the man opposite her.
Originally, she had wanted to capture a wanted rebellious Ranger and claim the bounty, but she hadn’t expected that once she actually encountered these rebellious Rangers, they would be so strong!
The moment they met, the opponent had used a strange attack that damaged the Jade Sword she used to call for help from Xun Ying, making it extremely difficult even to seek help.
She had taken the chance to launch a flare while the opponent was not paying attention, but in this vast mountain range, one flare might not be enough to bring help.
Moreover, even if help arrived, could they really defeat this guy?
"You’re just at Assimilation Mid-Sequence, why are you so strong!" Gu Panxi asked breathlessly. She had used most of her strength to unleash a powerful attack on this man, but it had only slightly scorched his clothes.
Standing opposite Gu Panxi was a bald man with white pupils. He was holding a Ranger by the neck and mocking Gu Panxi:
"Heh, why... There’s no need for so many whys. I have better Talent, more training, and have given more than you, so I am stronger than you!"
This man’s codename was Cangyan!
Gu Panxi was at a loss for words. She had only recently advanced to Middle Sequence, and while her strength was indeed at the bottom among her peers, the gap between her and this man was absurdly wide.
With a wicked laugh, Cangyan said, "It’s your bad luck meeting me. I’m not like others who tremble in fear like mice hiding in caves!"
"Since I’ve paid the price of being labeled a rebel by the Association to gain this power, of course, I must thoroughly enjoy this power. You think you’re hunting me?"
"No, it’s me who’s hunting you!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Cangyan’s other hand transformed into a hand blade and pierced directly through the chest of the Ranger in front of him, then casually tossed the body aside.
Gu Panxi clenched her teeth and stared at the corpse, her eyes seemingly ablaze with fire.
Cangyan licked the blood on his finger and said, "This is the third one, and you are the fourth... You are beautiful, so I will let you die beautifully too. How about I strangle you!"
"How did someone like you become a Ranger!" Gu Panxi couldn’t help but rebuke.
To become a Ranger, one needs to go through a psychological assessment, only those who are psychologically sound qualify to become a Ranger, but Cangyan clearly looks like a complete psychopath!
Cangyan shook his head and said, "Don’t look at me like that, as if I’m some terrible criminal. I’ve saved many people, so what if I kill a few occasionally?"
"Twisted logic!"
Cangyan huffed and said, "There’s no twisted logic or right logic, strength is the only reason. I am stronger than you, so my logic is correct!"
Then he looked at Gu Panxi with a strange expression, as if thinking about where to start.
Seeing his gaze, Gu Panxi’s expression changed, and she hurriedly dove to the side. The next moment, the place where she had just been was covered by a ghastly pale white color!
This pale color didn’t glow; it was like splashing white oil paint on a painting. When the white color gradually faded, the area that had been covered by the pale white lost all its natural luster, turning to ash with a gust of wind.
This was Cangyan’s ability; he could erase anything he saw with his eyes. Before, he had used this ability to destroy the Jade Sword that could summon Xun Ying before Gu Panxi could react.
"You react quite fast, but it’s all in vain,"
Cangyan huffed and quickly charged at Gu Panxi. Besides his eyes, he was also a top master of Ancient Boxing!
His strength completely overwhelmed Gu Panxi in all aspects, both speed and strength. In front of him, Gu Panxi was just a target to be hit.
Seeing the formidable enemy coming, Gu Panxi took a big step forward; her body instantly covered with the white light of the Crystal Stone, with two pairs of white wings spreading out behind her.
This was her Assimilation State, Holy Crystal Angel. After advancing to the Middle Sequence, she gained a second pair of wings.
Cangyan stopped in front of Gu Panxi, then took a bow stance and punched towards her chest; Gu Panxi hastily blocked with the Crystal Shield.
But a hint of ghastly pale appeared on the Crystal Shield, weakening the impact of Cangyan’s punch, which then directly penetrated the Holy Crystal Shield, sending Gu Panxi flying and crashing into several large trees before stopping.
Then Cangyan pursued the victory, unleashing a flurry of punches and kicks at the fallen Gu Panxi:
"Ora Ora Ora!"
After a series of punches and kicks, two of the wings on Gu Panxi’s back were broken, and she barely managed to lean against a tree, standing upright to face Cangyan.
Cangyan looked at Gu Panxi with a cold smirk, then shook his head and said, "I wanted to let you die beautifully, but it seems that’s not possible now."
"Then just die!"
Gu Panxi closed her eyes, waiting for death to come.
She wasn’t particularly afraid of death.
She just never thought she would die not in battle with a monster, but at the hands of a traitor from the Hunters Association.
However, the attack that was supposed to end her life never arrived.
Puzzled, she opened her eyes to see a familiar yet somewhat strange man standing in front of her.
"Yo, Miss Gu, long time no see."
