Chapter 45. Discovered

Amon held the body of the woman as he slowly laid her down on the ground, so as to not make any noise. He then delved back into the darkness again.

This world's practitioners were too used to using their cultivation level to decide on winning or losing that they were completely alien to stealth combat. But Amon figured this style was only effective when he was going against Human realm cultivators. In the Martial realm, cultivators could sense others' cultivation, which also meant that they could sense others' presence. He would not be able to use sneak tactics against those beings.

Amon covered the body of the dead woman with shrubs to hide it. As long as these supposed assassins still underestimated him, it would ease his effort. He heard the scream of a man. The direction indicated it was the one who had stumbled onto the White Bone Ants. This meant only two were left.

He then sneaked to the other side where the other two should be, going from cover to cover.
