Chapter 1589: Chapter 1589: If You Can’t Beat Them, Run
With a roar, the five great experts attacked simultaneously, moving forward and striking at the same time.
Without even looking, Gu Fan was no match at all, directly sent flying by the five great experts. He fell heavily, very heavily,
"Damn it, the strong pick on the weak when they outnumber them." Gu Fan endured the pain as he stood up, his eyes fixed on the fifth expert because he was the only one still wearing a helmet, which meant his identity was certainly special.
The five great experts wouldn’t give Gu Fan time to think and once again united to attack.
"Goodbye!" Knowing he couldn’t win, Gu Fan quickly ran away, smashing through a wall, then barging in, with no time to care about anything else.
Of course, the five great experts pursued him. If they didn’t take Gu Fan down this time, it would be their turn to be dealt with by Gu Fan next.
Lord Xiong cautioned, "Be wary, I’m afraid Gu Fan is hoping to exploit our inconsistent chase speed to defeat us one by one."
"So that’s it!" The five great experts understood and moderated their pace, ensuring none charged too vehemently.
As Gu Fan ran, he looked back and saw that although the speeds of the five great experts were different and their steps varied, they maintained a small distance between them, perfectly capable of supporting each other in time.
"It seems they’ve caught on to my plan, but no matter..." Gu Fan’s lips curled into a smile. Since that was the case, he was actually safer.
Gu Fan sped up and sprinted away, quickly widening the gap between himself and the five great experts.
"What should we do?" Xue Heng was a bit anxious. The five great experts, with their overzealous chase, were likely to be shaken off by Gu Fan soon.
With no other option, Zhuo Hang, the fastest among them, suggested he take the lead. After catching up with Gu Fan and keeping him occupied, the others should hurry to join the fray.
The other four nodded in agreement; first, because Zhuo Hang indeed had the strength, and second, because Zhuo Hang was immortal, even if he couldn’t beat Gu Fan, he would not be in mortal danger.
"Be careful, the opponent is Gu Fan." Lord Xiong gave a friendly reminder, and Zhuo Hang nodded, immediately quickening his pace.
In just a moment, Zhuo Hang narrowed the distance with Gu Fan, catching his attention.
"Oh, you’re the first to catch up to me, huh?" Gu Fan smiled, not taking it seriously.
Zhuo Hang said, "Gu Fan, no matter what tricks you play, you can’t beat the five of us."
"Yeah, I don’t think so either, but dealing with just you, I have plenty to spare," Gu Fan said provocatively. With Zhuo Hang’s strength, it would take a good deal of effort for Gu Fan to win.
Zhuo Hang repeatedly reminded himself to stay calm, absolutely calm, and not to fall for Gu Fan’s provocation.
But Gu Fan went on, "You came alone, not with the intent to defeat me, but to entangle me as long as possible, waiting for your companions to arrive and take care of me together."
"You guessed right, but what does it matter if you did?" Zhuo Hang still didn’t believe Gu Fan had any way to counter this approach.
Suddenly, Gu Fan stopped, no longer running, and this abnormal behavior terrified Zhuo Hang.
"What on earth is this guy going to do?" Zhuo Hang’s heart pounded; he rarely faced Gu Fan as an enemy and always saw others being taken down by Gu Fan, which unknowingly created a sense of fear towards Gu Fan in Zhuo Hang’s heart.
Zhuo Hang stood still, not daring to advance. He glanced back at the four other masters who were rushing over, and felt a sense of security, assured that with strong reinforcements, he wouldn’t need to fear any tricks from Gu Fan.
"You guys are here too?" Gu Fan gave a faint smile, then waved his finger, "Don’t rush, the game has just begun."
"What do you mean, it’s just a game to you?" Zhuo Hang’s eyebrows furrowed deeply, and then he saw Gu Fan charge over at an even faster speed, now in flying mode.
It was at that moment Zhuo Hang suddenly remembered that Gu Fan could fly using magic. Then why hadn’t he used this tactic to escape before... could it be that this guy was actually planning to counterattack?
Gu Fan gave a cold snort, charging at Zhuo Hang and grabbing him, then speeding forward with Zhuo Hang in tow.
The remaining four great masters were horrified; they saw Gu Fan and Zhuo Hang charging at them together, feeling the overwhelming force of the impact, their first instinct was to dodge. And in dodging, they exposed a huge vulnerability.
Indeed, after three months of training and coordination, the five great masters had achieved a level of unity in offense and defense, working together seamlessly, invulnerable. However, when faced with danger, they each had their own thoughts.
In order to avoid the fierce charge of Gu Fan and Zhuo Hang, three masters dodged to the right while Xue Heng dodged to the left, creating distance, and thus giving Gu Fan an opportunity to exploit.
"Thanks Zhuo Hang, I don’t need you anymore." Gu Fan threw Zhuo Hang toward the three masters, using Zhuo Hang’s momentum to almost topple them, aiming to hinder their actions.
Lord Xiong reacted the fastest, immediately realizing what Gu Fan was going to do, and roared, "Xue Heng, run! Gu Fan is coming for you!"
Upon hearing this, Xue Heng sensed the danger and tried to move closer to Lord Xiong, but before him was the sprinting Gu Fan, who blocked Xue Heng from Lord Xiong like a towering mountain.
With no other choice, Xue Heng had to go all out, swinging a fist.
Gu Fan didn’t take it seriously at all, withstanding Xue Heng’s punch, then grabbing Xue Heng and flying up into the sky.
"Damn it!" The other four great masters leaped high into the air almost simultaneously, trying to intervene, but their ascending speed was still no match for Gu Fan who had already soared into the air; they missed completely and could only watch helplessly as Xue Heng was taken aloft.
Lie Shou grew anxious, "What do we do?"
Lord Xiong reassured, "Gu Fan doesn’t have the wooden spikes on him, he can’t kill Xue Heng for now, but this is only temporary. We need to quickly locate Gu Fan and Xue Heng."
The others agreed, but the problem was that it was night, and the sky was pitch black. Where did Gu Fan take Xue Heng?
Should they split up to search? That might be playing right into Gu Fan’s hands, giving him the chance to pick them off one by one.
Just as the four great masters were at a loss, a figure descended from the sky, landing lightly, the coat fluttering, giving off an ethereal vibe.
"This..." The four great masters were stunned. They did not expect Gu Fan to come back so quickly.
Lord Xiong couldn’t help but ask, "Where’s Xue Heng? What have you done to him?"
Gu Fan smiled faintly, "I had a good talk with Xue Heng. I’ve decided to give Xue Heng, and the Xue Clan, one last chance. And Xue Heng has agreed to submit, it’s as simple as that."
Hearing this, the remaining four great masters could only lament that the Xue Clan really had no backbone, surrendering so quickly.
Now, Gu Fan’s gaze fell on Lie Shou; it seemed that the next target was the leader of the Hunter’s Guild. However, it was one against four, and Gu Fan had not yet reversed the situation.
