C413 Soldiers?
"But we will eventually appear before the eyes of the world! So what if we're late? " Su Wanting asked in confusion.
"This is different. When we appear in front of everyone, we will directly become a huge monster, perhaps reaching the level of Blood Illusion Valley and Sword League. At that time, even if a force is dissatisfied, they will have to consider the outcome of the battle!" Su Wanyue replied.
"So that's how it is!" Su Wanting nodded.
"There's a lot of knowledge behind this. How could you possibly understand the Pavilion Master's wisdom with your intellect?!" Su Wanyue teased her little sister.
"I will just make the small chess piece in Pavilion Master's hands. I don't need to consider anything else!" Su Wanting curled his lips, rebutting his sister's teasing.
"You!"

The Su Family's sisters were happily chatting in the building, while at the old house in the distance, a 'exciting' duel was taking place at the same time!
The four people in the room quickly finished their preparations and rushed out. They were all a lot fatter than before and wrapped in layers of beast skins. If they didn't want to be agile, they would have entangled themselves into a ball.
However, this outfit was similar to that of a mountain hunter! It was just that there were many different kinds of beast skins on him! It looked like a, no, a bunch of idiots.
The actions of these people were all within Shi Haowen's expectations. In Shi Haowen's opinion, no one could stop the smoke that carried this special smell, and this was no longer smoke in the traditional sense. Instead, it had risen to a higher level of 'poison smoke'!
Since he had already expected that the other party would choose to rush out and fight recklessly, Shi Haowen would obviously not let go of this opportunity. Even if the other party were to charge over bravely, he did not fear them in the slightest, the reason was that the number of people rushing out was simply right there, and the number of people was less than he had expected. There were only four people, which greatly exceeded his initial expectations.
After all, Shi Haowen had brought dozens of people this time. Even if there were five or six people attacking one, they would still be more than enough in terms of numbers.
Seeing that the other party had such a courageous way of seeking death, Shi Haowen was overjoyed in his heart. 'Using numbers to bully the young' was his favorite way of fighting, this kind of disproportionate fight would allow him to suppress his opponent even more. Watching his opponent die with endless fear was a type of fun for Shi Haowen, so he led his people to join in the battle to block and encircle his opponent.
The two groups of people quickly clashed against each other, and the moment they made contact, Shi Haowen was shocked. In his heart, these people should be ordinary hunters, even if they had some skills, they should have been trained through years of fighting with wild beasts in the mountains. Although killing wild beasts was very effective, and the other party was an average person, they were still far stronger than the normal guards.
There was no lack of strong people in the bounty hunter. These powerful people would take orders from some of the most wanted criminals, or go to the depths of the mountain and hunt demon beasts. They rarely went to the outskirts of the mountain range to hunt wild beasts. And the reason why most of the people who choose the profession of bounty hunter get up early to be poor, is because of this, which is why they were forced to choose this profession. After undergoing basic training, they threw themselves into the vast army of bounty hunter.
Because he did not have the money to learn more profound martial skills or other skills, the rate of death and injury in the early stages of bounty hunter was very high. Those who were able to survive were basically on the edge of life and death, this way he would have a lot more battle experience.
But experience was, after all, experience. To people of the same level, experience was very important. As for people of different levels, the use of experience could only help you survive, but there was no way for you to win. This was because experience couldn't be used to make up for the difference in levels.
However, the four people in front of them were not ordinary Hunters. From their movement speed, their angle of attack, and their ruthlessness, it was clear that they had killed someone before. Their concealed killing intent further proved this point.
And what made Shi Haowen even more shocked, was that although the opponent's numbers were pitifully few, in the short clash, they did not feel like they were at a disadvantage at all. It wasn't because their martial skills were so profound, but because they had used a combination attack that was extremely compatible with each other.
There were many gangs in the martial arts world that specialized in the art of joint attacks, but they were all core members of the inner sect. Moreover, the art of joint attacks was not allowed to be spread outside. Of course, there was another way to obtain a basic offensive technique. It was to be used within the army, and it was also not allowed to be spread outside.
Judging from the other party's posture and tactics, the possibility of these people coming from the Jianghu clan was very low. If the inner disciples of the Jianghu clan were excluded, then the only remaining possibility would be the army.
Thinking of this possibility, Shi Haowen's back was covered in cold sweat. Attacking a few bounty hunter s and attacking a few serving soldiers could be two entirely different outcomes!
If there were officials investigating, they would at most reveal the identity plates of the Duke Palaces. Then, they would give these people some serious crimes, when they have no proof of death, they would be able to rest easy, could it be that someone will make trouble for the people of the Duke Palaces for someone with no background like the bounty hunter? It was clear that there were very few people with such a brain!
If the Surveillance Council were to intervene in this investigation, then no matter how meticulously they cleaned up the mess, they might not be able to avoid the severe questioning of the Surveillance Council. At that time, forget about the Duke personally appearing, even if they had the backing of the Emperor, if they were to do something like killing the serving soldiers, the consequences would be dire!
"What should we do? It really was like a bad luck to be in the middle of a rainy night! Was he really a soldier? But what was a soldier doing in this remote place? And even disguised as bounty hunter? "Why is that?" As Shi Haowen commanded the people to surround them, his mind raced. He could not understand many things, and he was not even sure if he had fallen into some trap, he only knew that they were in an extremely awkward situation, and whether he should kill or not next, was something that he could not decide.
Shi Haowen thought that there were indeed many things that could not be explained! First of all, as a soldier, he should stay in the army camp and not run to this small city in disguise. Then their arrival was worth pondering over!
Secondly, there was no war here, and it was not a strategic location. Apart from the local police to maintain law and order, there was no other force outside the city, so where did they come from? What was he trying to do here?
Third, what is more puzzling is that since they are serving in the military and are facing such difficulties, why not reveal their identities? If they were to publicize that they were serving members of the military, no power would go after them for no reason. However, these people still didn't reveal their origins and identities, this was completely illogical.
Shi Haowen pondered for a long time before finally clenching his teeth tightly. He made up his mind: "Since there's no turning back and shooting, then there's no need to leave any future troubles. We have to eliminate them all! Even if someone came to investigate later on, he would still be charged with a crime. Even if someone tried to make things difficult for him, as long as he killed himself by mistake, even the Heavenly Emperor himself would not be able to do anything to him! "
Since he had already made up his mind, there was no need to be courteous anymore. Shi Haowen commanded the guards to separate the four of them, so that they would not be able to form an effective combination attack, and then divide them up. That way, he could use his advantage in numbers to surround and kill the few of them.

On the distant building, the thick smoke had already dissipated by quite a bit. One could faintly see from the small building the scene of the two groups of people fighting.
"Sister, it seems like that Shi Ye wants to kill you!" Su Wanting said. Just now, the two sisters had ended their conversation and were watching the battle intently.
"It's the same as the intelligence report. You're a treacherous man, and you'll get revenge for your grievances. You're a vile and vile man!" Su Wanyue said as she slowly nodded her head.
"If those people really are here to meet up, then they must know the exact location of the private army! We can't let them die like this, or we'll lose everything. Elder sister, do you want us to go and save him? " Su Wanting saw that the few of them were in increasing danger, and were faintly in danger of being unable to hold on, and were completely annihilated, so he suggested to his sister.
"No need!" Su Wanyue answered with determination.
"Why? If they all die, then our clues will be completely cut off! This Shi Haowen, really has more than enough potential! " Su Wanting asked puzzledly, and in the end, even glared at Shi Haowen with a face full of annoyance.
"Don't worry! If we take action recklessly, it will not only be useless, but we will also let the other party know that there is a mysterious force interfering. "That's one of them." Su Wanyue smiled and explained to her sister.
"Trouble?" Su Wanting subconsciously asked.
"Yes, think about it. Although those people escaped successfully from our rescue, will they still return to base camp as planned? Isn't this the same as breaking our lead? If he finds out that another force is involved, he will definitely believe that all of this is a conspiracy. Then, he will bring everyone back to the imperial city at the first possible moment. Su Wanyue continued to explain.
"This ?" I was reckless! Elder sister, you said that this is the first, so it has another reason? " Hearing her explanation, Su Wanting immediately understood that if he had rashly acted to save her, it would be equivalent to destroying his entire plan. He was still lacking a lot, but luckily, his sister was worried and had rushed over.
