Revelation of the Way of Heaven

Chapter 295 Rescuing Zhu Yi

With the arrival of a new batch of demon hunters, the demon hunter camp became unusually lively. Qin Xiaochuan and Zhu Yihu, after being disguised, blended in without any sense of incongruity.

"I didn't expect it to be this easy." Qin Xiaochuan felt a little incredulous; the tactical arrangements he had made earlier seemed unnecessary.

Just as he was thinking this, he suddenly heard a surprised voice: "Huh? Old Kong."

Qin Xiaochuan looked in the direction of the voice and saw Zhang Tao. He knew that this person was Kong Jie's good friend, and his presence here was not a good thing.

Qin Xiaochuan nodded to him as a greeting, then continued walking out of the camp, not wanting to cause any further trouble.

However, things weren't as simple as he thought. Zhang Tao grabbed his arm, looked at him scrutinizingly, and asked, "Didn't you go to see Yilin? What are you doing here now?"

"There's no other way, I just received some urgent missions." Qin Xiaochuan winked at Zhu Yi, signaling him to go first.

"What mission? I didn't receive it. The captain really knows how to pick his timing." Zhang Tao grinned mischievously, patting Qin Xiaochuan on the shoulder. "Making you work overtime at a time like this."

"There's no other way," Qin Xiaochuan said with a bitter face. "A new group of brothers just arrived, and the captain was worried they wouldn't understand the traps, so he sent me to show them around."

"Hahaha, so that woman Irene didn't blame you." Zhang Tao said gloatingly, taking out two cigarettes from his pocket and handing one to Qin Xiaochuan.

Qin Xiaochuan had no choice but to take it, but he just held it between his fingers without intending to suck on it.

"If anyone's to blame, it's the captain, not me," Qin Xiaochuan said nonchalantly.

Zhang Tao lit his cigarette with a lighter. Seeing this, Qin Xiaochuan quickly said, "Okay, I have to go. If I don't finish soon, the captain will scold me again. You know the captain has a bad temper." With that, he turned to leave. He didn't smoke, and if he stayed any longer, he would be exposed.

"What's the rush? You should have time to light a cigarette," Zhang Tao said, holding out a lit lighter to Qin Xiaochuan.

Having no other choice, Qin Xiaochuan put the cigarette in his mouth and lit it with his lighter.

He had only taken one breath when a bitter, pungent smell shot straight into his throat, causing him to cough involuntarily.

"What's wrong with you?" Zhang Tao asked, frowning.

"It's nothing," Qin Xiaochuan quickly explained. "I guess I haven't had any water for a long time, so my throat is a little dry. Okay, I should go now."

Just then, an alarm sounded in the camp, and a loud whistle rang out from the tents. Upon hearing the whistle, all the demon hunters sprang into action.

"Damn it, we're assembling. Why are we assembling so late?" Zhang Tao threw the cigarette in his hand on the ground, stomped it out, and pulled Qin Xiaochuan away.

Qin Xiaochuan realized that the enemy had discovered Zhu Yihu's escape. Going to regroup at this time would be tantamount to walking into a trap. However, not going to regroup was also not an option, because when everyone was gathering in the camp, it would be very abrupt for him and Zhu Yihu to walk out, making them easier targets for the enemy.

Qin Xiaochuan knew that his primary task was to rescue Zhu Yi, so he absolutely could not expose him. Moreover, under the current circumstances, he did not have time to think too much, so he quickly made a decision.

He turned on his headset again and said, "The hunter is awake. It's time for you to get moving."

"What did you say?" Zhang Tao looked at him with a puzzled expression.

"Sorry, brother." Qin Xiaochuan glanced at him apologetically, and before the other could react, he grabbed his shoulder and a bolt of lightning instantly swept across his entire body.

Qin Xiaochuan's actions instantly alerted the surrounding crowd, but they had no idea what had happened. Just as they looked at Qin Xiaochuan with suspicion, he unleashed another skill—Blazing Sky.

The raging flames instantly engulfed the two tents, causing a huge fire. Qin Xiaochuan did this to attract the attention of all the demon hunters, so as to create an opportunity for Zhu Yihu to escape. After doing all this, Qin Xiaochuan immediately ran out of the camp.

The demon hunters clearly understood what was going on, and almost everyone surrounded Qin Xiaochuan in an instant.

Qin Xiaochuan opened his mental space, and all the surrounding information instantly flowed into his mind. In that instant, several skills attacked him from all directions, but Qin Xiaochuan, with his keen and accurate perception, moved freely among these attacks.

However, there were simply too many demon hunters around. Before long, more than a dozen demon hunters surrounded them from the front. Qin Xiaochuan closed and opened his eyes, and a burst of spiritual energy spread out, causing all the demon hunters to instantly prostrate themselves on the ground.

In just a few seconds, Qin Xiaochuan overtook the crowd and was about to rush out of the camp. At that time, he would be like a fish in the sea, and no matter how many demon hunters there were, he was confident that he could easily deal with them.

Since his trip to Kunlun Ruins, Qin Xiaochuan's mindset has undergone a complete transformation. He has witnessed the battles between the ancient gods, and these petty squabbles in the mortal world are no longer what he yearns for. Regardless of his current strength, at least in terms of mindset, he has transcended everything in the mortal world, and mindset can sometimes determine a person's strength.

At this moment, Qin Xiaochuan also disregarded the demon hunters in the camp, which is why he dared to suggest twice that he infiltrate the camp alone. Of course, this confidence was not only due to his mindset but also to his strength. Now, even if he faced a level 8 peak ability user, he was confident that he could fight.

Just as Qin Xiaochuan was dodging left and right as if he were in an empty place, and was only ten meters away from the camp entrance, a huge sense of crisis suddenly rushed into his mind. Before he could react, a powerful force slammed into him from his left.

"Bang!" Qin Xiaochuan was sent flying by the enormous force and landed heavily on the ground. Fortunately, Qin Xiaochuan had activated the Qilin Armor skill in advance, and the opponent obviously did not use their full strength, so Qin Xiaochuan was not seriously injured.

Qin Xiaochuan quickly got up from the ground and looked at the person who had just attacked him with a horrified expression. The reason he was so shocked was that the other party was too fast. Even though he had predicted the other party's attack in his mental space, he still had no way to dodge it. Obviously, the other party was a very difficult opponent.

Moreover, the moment the other party appeared, a powerful aura instantly enveloped him, an aura he had only ever felt from Guo Tianming before.

Qin Xiaochuan glanced at the other party's spiritual power level, and as expected, it had reached level 9. He immediately understood who the newcomer was. Who else but the Demon Hunter Deputy Leader Qian could possess such strength?

Qin Xiaochuan composed himself. Although he was facing an unexpectedly powerful enemy, he was not afraid. His mindset at this moment was to challenge all the forces in the world. He was more like a newly grown lion, sharpening his claws and teeth every day, intending to challenge the Lion King and see what strength he had achieved.
