Chapter 525: Chapter 525: Plot to Kill Guo Ao! (3 more)

Guo Ao saw Ling Feng retreating and quickly soared into the sky, chasing far behind Ling Feng.

Guo Zhan and the elders of the Skeleton Gang naturally pressed on step by step, maintaining a distance of roughly one hundred feet from Guo Ao.

Ling Feng kept a steady pace, soon approaching the city gates of Iron Wolf City. The guards at the gate, seeing someone flying out, immediately shouted, "The gates of Iron Wolf City are closed; no one is allowed to leave the city. Once you go out, don’t come back!"

Ling Feng naturally ignored the guards’ warnings. With a flap of his True Qi Wings, he had already flown past the city gates.

Following, Guo Ao, desiring the King Beast Egg, almost without hesitation, immediately chased after him.

Guo Zhan and several elders of the Skeleton Gang also followed closely behind, but more than a dozen other elders hesitated. The ban issued by the City Lord Mansion was not to be defied. Once outside, they would indeed have to wait three months before being allowed back into the city; even for them, it was likely they would perish in the bellies of demons.

Glancing back, Ling Feng saw that the number of people following had suddenly decreased by more than half, and smirked. This was exactly the outcome he wanted.

"Gulp!"

After swallowing the Demon Transformation Elixir, Ling Feng turned around and threw the King Beast Egg in the direction of Guo Ao, shouting, "Gang Leader Guo, catch the egg!"

"What!"

Guo Ao, frightened, felt his heart might explode, and quickly deployed his movement technique to catch the King Beast Egg thrown at him.

He was completely unaware that on the surface of the King Beast Egg, a purple shadow still lurked.

Whoosh!

With a quick movement, Guo Ao caught the King Beast Egg thrown into the air and carefully cradled it in his hands, yet he didn’t notice that the purple shadow had already slipped into his body through a cut on his arm.

In the next moment, Ling Feng unexpectedly appeared right in front of Guo Ao, a trace of a smile on his face, and said lightly, "Gang Leader Guo, thank you for catching the King Beast Egg for me."

"Huh?" Guo Ao’s mind went blank for a moment. Why wasn’t this kid running away? He actually dared to fly back?

"Hmph, boy, the King Beast Egg is in my hands, you, go die!"

With a low growl, Guo Ao raised his hand, about to activate the Primordial Qi in his body to kill Ling Feng right in front of him, only to find that his Dan Tian Energy Sea seemed to have been drained all of a sudden, and his physical strength also disappeared in an instant.

"What’s going on?"

Guo Ao was stunned and looked at his hand, which was now covered with wrinkles and withered as if he were a dying old man.

"Gang Leader Guo, when you reach the underworld, have a good reunion with your third brother."

Ling Feng’s mysterious smile arose as he reached out to take back the King Beast Egg from Guo Ao’s hand. A purple light also shot out from Guo Ao’s body, returning to Ling Feng’s side.

Guo Ao clearly used all his strength to desperately grasp the King Beast Egg, yet couldn’t stop Ling Feng for even a second, and could only watch helplessly as Ling Feng’s figure gradually disappeared into the horizon.

"What’s happened to me?"

Guo Ao shivered, the power to sustain his flight disappearing completely, as he plummeted heavily from midair.

"Big brother!"

Guo Zhan, seeing the situation up ahead, was immediately startled and flew up to catch Guo Ao’s body.

But as he caught him, he realized the body he held was frighteningly light, like a pile of bones.

Upon closer inspection, he discovered that the brother in his arms had completely withered, shrunk, like an old man on the verge of death, oh no, it was completely dried up like a skeleton wrapped in skin!

"Big... big brother?"

Guo Zhan could scarcely believe what he was seeing. How had his own brother aged so drastically in an instant?

"Boss!"

"This... Boss, you... what happened to you?"

The elders of the Skeleton Gang, one by one, were dumbfounded.

The Skeleton Gang Leader had truly become a skeleton!

"King Beast... King Beast Egg..."

Guo Ao reached out, trying to grasp at something, his lifespan had completely run out, and he was even seeing hallucinations before his eyes.

That purple shadow just now was naturally Zi Feng. Ling Feng had already tasked Zi Feng with lurking above the King Beast Egg, waiting for the moment Guo Ao caught the egg to stealthily drill into his body and drain his lifespan.

Poor Guo Ao, he could be considered a formidable figure of his time, but he still fell victim to Ling Feng’s scheme, dying on the spot.

Before long, Guo Ao’s hand dropped powerlessly, slamming heavily onto the ground as he exhaled his last breath—

Guo Ao, dead!

"Elder brother! Elder brother!—"

Guo Zhan’s entire body trembled as he looked at his brother who had died in his arms, his eyes nearly spitting fire.

"You bastard, I will kill you! I must kill you!!!"

Guo Zhan roared to the heavens like a mad dog, stowing Guo Ao’s body in the Spirit Storage Ring. Then, pushing off the ground with one foot, he exploded with a violent burst of air and chased after Ling Feng in the direction he had disappeared, with the greatest speed.

"What... what do we do now?"

The remaining elders of the Skeleton Gang looked at each other, unsure. The Sky Demon Forest was now filled with members of the Demon Clan and Demons. If they continued to venture deeper, it was certainly a dead-end.

Besides, speaking frankly, they were neither kin nor kith to the Guo brothers; there was no need for them to cast away their lives for them.

"I think even if the Second Gang Leader catches up with that brat and executes him, he’ll probably end up dead at the hands of a Demon. Now that all three Gang Leaders are dead, doesn’t the Skeleton Gang become ours to command?"

One elder with a white beard narrowed his eyes and spoke with a slight smile.

"This..." Another bald elder rubbed his hands together, clearly understanding the white-bearded elder’s implication.

"Elder Jiaan, Elder Ying, in my opinion, we should head back. If we return now, we can rightfully take over everything of the Skeleton Gang. In the future, we can divide the territory among us three. Wouldn’t that be delightful?" the white-bearded elder said, his eyes twinkling with mirth.

"That’s right, the era of the Guo brothers is destined to be over. We don’t need to follow them to our deaths!"

The bald Elder Ying and Elder Jiaan exchanged a look, both breaking into grins.

However, in their hearts, each harbored their own schemes.

Divide the territory among the three?

What a joke. How could sharing the territory between three compare to one person monopolizing it all!

"Not good, Elder Ying, look there, it’s the Demon Clan!"

The white-bearded elder feigned a look of utter astonishment and pointed behind Elder Ying.

"What?" Elder Ying turned to look, but there was no Demon Clan behind him, not even a shadow of one.

"You... Tang Lie, you dare to deceive me?" Elder Ying’s pupils shrank suddenly, feeling a sharp pain in his lower abdomen. It turned out that the white-bearded elder Tang Lie had already drawn a dagger and pierced through his stomach.

"You..." Elder Ying clasped at his abdomen, where blood was not the normal dark red but an eerie green.

"Did you coat your dagger with poison?"

Elder Ying bellowed angrily, launching a vicious palm strike that sent Tang Lie flying away.

"Elder Jiaan, help... help me..."

The voice cut off abruptly. Tang Lie’s dagger was smeared with an extremely potent poison, and even though Elder Ying was at the First Level of the Divine Origin Realm, he still died instantly.
