In Qing Ming City.

 The college at the crossroad.

 Lu Ming and Jiang Feng looked at the chaos in the school.

 As the princ.i.p.al of the college at the crossroad and the provisional acting ‘pseudo princ.i.p.al of the school', the two of them were most familiar with the college, and hence they had been hiding for a long time.

However, there was a grave look on their faces at the sight of Zhou Yang on a killing spree.

 This child…

 He was very accepting!

 “If this was done to you, would you tolerate it?”

 Lu Ming looked at Jiang Feng.

 “No.”

 Jiang Feng sighed.

 Although he was now a single father, and he had a good daughter, and he might not really need to use it, this was after all about a man's dignity!

 However…

 Zhou Yang could endure it.

 Not only could he endure it, he seemed to be quite happy about it.

 “I suddenly feel that we have made a loss in the ten million yuan deal.”

 Lu Ming's voice was low.

 Technically speaking, they had already made profits by selling it. However, at the sight of how Zhou Yang was adapting well to the post-effects of the legacy, Lu Ming felt somewhat sad.

The price they quoted seemed to be too low.

 “Profiteers!”

 Jiang Feng cast Lu Ming a look of contempt.

 “What do we do now?”

 Lu Ming looked down through the office building.

 This was the legendary view of the dean—he could have a clear view of the entire campus, from the school building to the student dormitory, the field was just downstairs while the school toilet was in the distance…

 He could even have a clear view of the big idiot who was smoking next to the toilet…

 Right now…

 The two of them could see clearly what was going on in the college. Zhou Yang had turned into a G.o.d of Slaughter, and he was in the continuous search of cultivators who were by themselves to take their lives, while some cultivators were still playing Pokémon GO in the school…

 This was simply courting death?!

 “We can't possibly allow him to continue taking lives?”

 Lu Ming pondered deeply.

“Go ahead and kill them. It's better to kill all of them.”

 Jiang Feng's expression was calm.

 Those people who came to Qing Ming City to catch the spirit body were not considered good people…

 He heard that these days the crime rate in Qing Ming City had increased significantly. Although there were six-star cultivators in the town, if there was no suspect, they could do nothing about it?!

 These four-star and five-star cultivators…

 The victims might not even be able to see who the suspect was!

 Therefore, the locals generally hated these spirit body hunters. He heard that the police had been working round the clock these days, many of them had gone many days without a rest.

 “Princ.i.p.al, aren't you going to launch an attack?”

 Lu Ming kept a mental check of the time.

 Given such a situation, shouldn't Jiang Feng make his move to save the school?

 “Me???”

 Jiang Feng had a dumbstruck expression on his face as he looked at Lu Ming.

 After a long while…

 He spoke in a low voice. “Lu Ming, do you have any misunderstandings about being a Card Creator?”

He was merely a four-star Card Creator!

 He had an auxiliary vocation!

 He was merely an a.s.sistant!

 Why must he do it?

 Lu Ming's expression stiffened. “Aren't you always chased down by five-star cultivators?”

 “Yes.”

 Jiang Feng had a confused expression on his face. “The ability to escape has nothing to do with one's combat effectiveness. I might be able to escape from five-star cultivators, but that does not mean that I can beat them.”

 “Your red card…”

 Lu Ming said.

 “It is my only trump card.”

 Jiang Feng sighed. “I am able to strike once every couple of days. But I can only defeat an ordinary five-star. As for Zhou Yang who is a peak five-star and has a legacy…

 I'm afraid not.

 Besides, it hasn't recovered from the last time I depleted it…”

 “Seriously?”

 Lu Ming was filled with skepticism.

 Was Old Jiang that weak?

 Jiang Feng felt bewildered. To this child, even though he could take on an ordinary five-star, he was considered weak. Did the child have the impression that everyone could skip levels in battles like his sister?!

 That was not right.

 He was a four-star Card Creator. He had already skipped the levels to take on a five-star!

 “Alright.”

 Lu Ming sighed, It seemed that his expectations were too high.

 Well…

 Although he was Xiaobai's father…

 Although he had small secrets and only had escaping abilities that were useful when being hunted down…

 Jiang Feng was breaking down a little emotionally.

 What did he mean by the disappointed look in his eyes?!

 “Wait a minute.”

 Jiang Feng came to his senses. He looked at Lu Ming with doubtful eyes. “You have been very collected all this time. Are you waiting for me to kill Zhou Yang?”

 Lu Ming was silent.

 Jiang Feng was silent.

 The two of them glanced at each other and they seemed embarra.s.sed.

 In that case…

 It seemed that no one could defeat Zhou Yang.

 Well…

 He was after all a peak five-star…

 “You shouldn't have let him out.”

 Jiang Feng sighed.

 He thought that Lu Ming was prepared. He did not expect that Lu Ming was expecting him to take him down!

 This was shocking!

 Cough, cough.

 Lu Ming coughed.

 “How can that be possible?!”

 Lu Ming looked grave. “Since I allowed Zhou Yang to accept the legacy, I will definitely have ways to stop him!

 However…

 Lu Ming was silent, as he looked at Zhou Yang in the distance.

 “I don't know why, but at the sight of Zhou Yang, I don't feel very happy. I feel that I have lost one hundred million yuan…

 Perhaps… I am too obsessed with it.”

 Lu Ming sighed.

 Jiang Feng was silent…

 This child was able to make shameless comments while looking refined?

 He was the one who sold the legacy to swindle the other party. After realizing that the effect was very powerful, the profiteer felt indignant.

“Wait a minute.”

 Lu Ming suddenly thought of one thing. “Among so many cultivators over here, there must be some who comes from an established background. Why would Zhou Yang dare to kill them?”

 “That was because he had a stronger background!”

 Jiang Feng's expression was calm.

 “Understood.”

 Lu Ming understood right away.

 In that case…

 If the college at the crossroads was a natural hunting ground…

 Look.

 There would be people who were scapegoats for the killings.

 Lu Ming's heart ached at the four-star and five-star cultivators who were being killed. All the cultivators had died for no reason!

 What a pity?!

 What a waste!

 He had indeed thought of a plan to stop Zhou Yang, but…

 He was in no hurry.

 Lu Ming squinted. “Princ.i.p.al, since you are good at escaping, you should have good concealment skills. If we follow Zhou Yang, are you confident of not being discovered by him?”

“What do you think?”

 Jiang Feng looked proud.

 In terms of combat effectiveness, he was not as good as Zhou Yang, but in terms of being chased down by others… ha, speaking of hiding and concealing abilities, five-star cultivators would never be able to find him!

“That's good.”

 Lu Ming smiled. “I am going to recoup my losses.”

 Jiang Feng was confused.

 After a long while…

 He trailed after Lu Ming and they concealed themselves and chased after Zhou Yang.

 Zhou Yang might be on a killing spree, but it was very easy to trace him down. This was because Zhou Yang left some traces behind him deliberately.

 It was so that he could kill them while the cultivators were by themselves!

 These spirit body hunters were interesting existences.

 Although they agreed to join forces and to kill the spirit body, if someone noticed the traces of the python in the nearby surroundings, they might leave by themselves to hunt it down…

 This was because they wanted to take it all for themselves.

 Afterward…

They would be done for.

 This was the result when the greed outweighed the abilities.

 At this moment…

 The chase continued.

 A team that was in search of the female python moved cautiously forward.

 Suddenly…

 One of their sensors vibrated.

 It was coming!

 He was elated.

 He was just about to share the good news with his team when he realized, to his surprise that they were staring intently in front and there was no response in their sensors!

 Wait a minute…

 They didn't notice it?!

 The cultivator was wild with joy.

 Oh.

 If that was the case…

 “I don't have enough energy. I am afraid I have to quit.”

 He sighed. “Keep looking, gentlemen.”

 Upon finis.h.i.+ng his words…

 He left quietly.

 Those people gave him a glance and no longer paid attention to him. After all, they merely joined forces and formed a temporary team. They were not close with each other. It was normal to quit.

 At this very moment…

 The person left the team and went in search of the spirit body according to the direction that the sensor pointed to.

 Haha!

 One of the properties of his sensor must have coincided with the frequency of the python…

 The python would be his!

 Well…

 A six-star python!

 He was experienced in catching a six-star spirit body. He was a five-star now and he was equipped with devices that he bought at a high price. There should not be a problem in catching the spirit body!

 Let's go!

 He quietly walked toward the location that the sensor was pointing to. He did not notice that a figure had quietly appeared somewhere behind him.

 The figure was charming.

 It was like a serpent and a demon.

 Swoos.h.!.+

 The figure closed in.

 “Who is that?!”

 The cultivator was suddenly on alert.

 However…

 It was late, and a serpent-like figure appeared. Its soft body wrapped around him and entangled him, cutting off his escape…

 “Get lost!”

 The person was after all a five-star cultivator.

 Right then…

 His powerful energy exploded. His vocation was no joke. He was an Energy Warrior and he majored in strengthening his body. He managed to withstand the attack!

 Very well!

 The strangling of the python?!

 His eyes were filled with malicious intent…

 Although he had no idea why the python was able to remain undetected by his spirit body detector, it did not matter anymore. As long as he could withstand the strangling…

 Bang!

The energy within him exploded.

 He was able to withstand the Phantom's strangulation for a short period of time!

 However…

 At that moment…

 Suddenly…

 He felt that his body seemed to be empty…

 It seemed as if…

 Something had been taken away from him. He had yet to come to his senses and his body turned weak, as he was being strangled by the body that wrapped around him!

 Pfft!

 Blood splattered.

 Dead?

 Zhou Yang found it odd.

 The cultivator was a five-star and he was very powerful. He was an Energy Warrior and had powerful trump cards. Given Zhou Yang's energy level, he was surprised that he could not kill him instantly!

 After all…

 He was still practicing the Phantom's strangulation.

 When he was faced with someone who was just as powerful and majored in strengthening the body, it was normal not to be able to kill him instantly.

 However…

 Just when he was ready to change his way of attack, the cultivator roared and he seemed to be about to cast his trump card. However, he went weak the next instant…

 Afterward…

 He was dead.

 It was weird but subtle.

 Perhaps it was the Phantom's Final Attack that restrained his powerful ability?

 That was possible!

 It seemed that…

 There were many other powerful abilities that were yet to be discovered in the Phantom's Final Attack.

 Ten million yuan…

 Haha!

 He had made lots of money!

 Such a legacy was priceless!

 Swoos.h.!.+

 Swoos.h.!.+

 Zhou Yang turned into a blur and disappeared.

 He wanted to strangle more people and enhance his power!

 Somewhere.

 He noticed a three-man team that was being left out.

 Yes.

 To him, the three of them were considered as being separated from the bigger group. He secretly launched his attack, hiding from them and dealt a lethal blow like a poisonous serpent!

 Very soon…

 There were three bodies on the ground.

 The strangulation was a success!

 It was just that…

 Zhou Yang's expression was odd.

 He felt that…

 It seemed easier?

 In the past, these people would self-destruct or use their trump cards before their deaths, bringing him a lot of trouble. But now, it seemed that they died right away…

 They did not even have a chance to resist!

 “Is it because my strangulation has become stronger?”

 Zhou Yang guessed.

 Oh.

 That was possible!

 This legacy was truly powerful.

 Swoos.h.!.+

 Swoos.h.!.+

 Zhou Yang swept his gaze across the campus. No one was his opponent.

Vaguely.

 He heard the conversation too. Oh, a python? Hahaha. Sure, since they treated it as a python, so be it!

 Haha.

 Hence…

 The next time he struck…

 Zhou Yang deliberately made a “hissing” sound and he created the virtual shadow of the python so that they would think that it was indeed the python!

 In that case…

 No one would doubt him.

 Zhou Yang was very satisfied.

 He could not be bothered with these things. But it was always good to have fewer troubles.

 Hence…

 There was more news about the appearance of a six-star female snake spirit body. Many powerful people sent investigators to investigate secretly and confirmed their guess!

 A six-star female snake!

 It was very powerful!

 At this moment…

 The cultivators from the nearby cities had finally arrived.

 “I heard this female snake is a peak six-star.”

 “Not only that, but I also heard that this female snake wants to avenge the male snake and there is a touching love story revolving around them…”

 “Really?”

 “Of course. I heard that there is a serial novel, ‘The Python: Its Origins' on the Internet…”

“Amazing!”

 Everyone was surprised.

 However…

 The so-called love story between the spirit bodies did not make a difference.

 To the spirit body hunters, they might be female snakes, male snakes or snakes in love. It did not matter. All that mattered was that they could catch it and sell it for a good price!

 Hence…

 Many people entered the college at the crossroads once again.

 n.o.body knew.

 Many people had died before them!

 Many people who were still in the college did not realize that a lot of them would not make it out alive. Those that were alive now were those greedy spirit body hunters…

 The killings…

 Continued.

 Swoos.h.!.+

 Swoos.h.!.+

 Zhou Yang seemed like a nightmare, appearing in all the corners of the college quietly.

 Tonight…

 There would be bloodshed.

 At this very moment…

 Somewhere.

 Jiang Feng concealed his aura and moved forward with Lu Ming in the darkness.

 Whenever Zhou Yang used the strangulation method and his aura exploded and the person who was being strangled released all his energy, Lu Ming would strike silently…

 He would help Zhou Yang in killing his enemies.

 Yes.

 He was helping Zhou Yang.

 Jiang Feng could see it very clearly.

 Once Lu Ming made his move on the cultivators, they would be reduced to a strange ‘weakened state', and they would be defenseless as they were strangled to death!

 After all…

 One could not afford to be distracted during the process of using the Phantom's strangulation ability. Therefore, Lu Ming's strike served as the last straw that broke a camel's back.

 It was just that…

 Jiang Feng could not understand. Why would he help Zhou Yang?

 This guy… was demonic!

 Zhou Yang was accepting of the changes in his body, which seemed very creepy to him. He was obviously someone who would resort to unscrupulous means in order to become more powerful.

Why help him?

 He could not figure it out.

 To this…

 Lu Ming only smiled faintly.

 “I am the one who led him to take this path. Since this is the case, I will help him to the end,” Lu Ming said in a low voice.

 Jiang Feng sneered. He did not believe his words!

 He was certain.

 Lu Ming must be up to something secretly. It was just that he had yet to discover it. It was alright. The night was still young. He wanted to know what he was up to!

 Swoos.h.!.+

 Zhou Yang left again.

 Jiang Feng brought Lu Ming with him and followed after him.

 The killing went well.

 Perhaps…

 It was too successful that the cultivators were fearful.

 Some unorganized spirit body hunters could obviously feel that something was amiss and they gave up the fight for the spirit body. However, right then, a real organization joined the fight!

 The college at the crossroads.

 At the entrance.

 This was an orderly team of twelve people. They wore uniforms and looked mighty. Every one of them was a spirit body hunter! This was the real spirit body hunters organization—Firefly.

 “Firefly is finally here.”

 “This is a spirit body hunter organization…”

 “A group of twelve people. That is a large investment.”

 Everyone was shocked.

 They were a group of two five-stars and ten four-stars. Although it might seem ordinary, they were not to be underestimated!

 All the peak five-stars steered clear of them.

 This was because such a spirit body team had been through rigorous training. They were quick and nimble and their power was far more than what was reflected from their energy levels!

 This team could be comparable to six-star!

 As for their combat effectiveness toward the spirit body…

 It was far more than an ordinary six-star!

 They caught a peak six-star spirit body the last time they went on a hunt. This went to show their abilities.

 “It seems we have no chance.”

 “Yes, Firefly never fails.”

 The rest of them felt regretful.

 For the spirit body hunters that did not belong to any organization, their winning advantage was to be faster than the rest and to be nimble and quick in the attack, taking down the spirit body even before other organized spirit body hunters could react!

 And when the organizations made their deployments…

 They would be out of the race.

 However…

 It had been a few hours and they could not take down the six-star female snake. They could only blame themselves for being useless.

 “I wonder how long they will take to catch it?”

 “Let's keep up with them to take a look.”

 Very soon…

 The Firefly team had launched an attack.

 Many cultivators watched from afar, joining in the fun.

 The large group of cultivators who were after the spirit body finally banded together under the presence of this special team!

 The one hundred cultivators nearby watched as the Firefly team of twelve began their attack.

 At this very moment…

 Zhou Yang looked dumbstruck.

 He looked into the distance and he fled in fear.

 What a joke!

 It was fine with the Firefly team, but what about those who were watching the fun!?

 There were more than one hundred of them!

 Although there were many four-star among them, he did not dare to go near them. He was certain that once he appeared, he would be beaten to death…

 Perhaps…

 He could mix into the crowd and try to escape?

 This was what Zhou Yang had in mind.

 Although he had received the Phantom Legacy, he was after all a cultivator and a Spearman…

 If…

 At this very moment…

 The Firefly separated a feminine force from the corpse and placed it into the equipment. The equipment went into operation and it pointed in his direction right away!

 Buzz—

 A powerful thought locked in on Zhou Yang!

 The target was locked!

 The aura was locked!

 The coordinates!

 “Oh no!”

 Zhou Yang's expression changed.

 He was in big trouble this time.
