The Hunt Begins

Huo Li 'er seemed to be afraid of the yellow-haired beauty as she waved her hand and said,

"I know, Sister Kasri. I was just joking. You don't have to take it so seriously."

Lan Bingling looked at Roger's retreating back as he disappeared into the mountain range. She said to the two people behind her,

"Huo Li 'er, Sister Kasri, you know me well.

I felt it from that kid just now. He had the ability to kill me in an instant.

However, he should have only started practicing the breathing technique this year. No matter how talented he was, he shouldn't be able to instantly kill me, a 2nd rank.

I had to ask him and find out what was going on."

Lan Bingling's words immediately piqued Huo Li 'er and Kasri's interest. One must know that Lan Bingling was born with the ability to sense danger.

In addition, after cultivating her family's inherited Ice Crystal Breathing Technique, her perception ability had been greatly improved. Even the Wind Spirit breathing technique's cultivators who were famous for their perception ability were far inferior to Lan Bingling's perception ability.

Kasri walked to Lan Bingling's side and also looked in the direction that Roger had left. She said to Lan Bingling,

"Bingling, according to what you said, that brat's strength is at least at the peak of the third step. Only then would he have the ability to kill you in an instant.

However, he is only 18 years old.

It's the first time I've seen such a strange combination in so many years."

At that moment, Huo Li 'er walked quickly to the two of them and said,

"Since that's the case, why don't we hurry up and chase after him? We might be able to catch up if we go now.

In the face of the anxious Huo Li 'er, Kasri shook her head. Under Huo Li' er's doubtful gaze, she said,

"We can't chase after him. If he can kill Lan Bingling, who has the strongest life-preservation ability among us, in an instant, we definitely can't go after him.

It's nothing short of suicide."

In the Broken Cliff Mountain Rage, common law did not exist. No family could act in revenge.

This iron-clad rule had been personally issued by the First King.

If conflicts ever arose, they were only allowed to fight head-on. Also, the heaven reaching mirror had the ability to reverse space-time to track them down, so the major families had to exercise restraint.

However, it's not like there's no way to avoid the heavenly mirror's tracking.

Kasri's words caused Huo Li 'er to calm down in an instant. She then asked Kasri,

"Then, Sister Kasri, are we still going to enter the mountain range?"

When Kasri heard Huo Li 'er's question, she answered her without any hesitation,

"We have to go in.

Only by entering the Broken Cliff Mountain Range and obtaining the Lingzhi grass protected by a third rank savage beast, the giant desolate crocodile, can you and I escape the fate of being forced into marriages by our family.

Otherwise, I would rather die than marry that disgusting waste."

She then turned around and said to Lan Bingling,

"Bingling, Huo Li 'er and I had no choice but to enter the Broken Cliff Mountain Range. You're only accompanying us here.

As long as you become the clan leader, you won't have to worry like us.

So, you should go back. If we die in the Broken Cliff Mountain Range this time, you must live well for us."

However, Lan Bingling only smiled at Kasri's persuasion. She patted her shoulder and walked past the two of them. Then, she said in an indifferent tone,

"I'm not willing to live for the two of you. I'm already carrying a heavy burden on my shoulders, so don't you two think about adding more to it."

I only have the two of you as my friends. If you leave, I'll be left to live alone in this world. What's the point?

Lan Bingling only thought about the last sentence in her heart and didn't say it out loud.

As for Huo Li 'er and Kasri, their eyes were slightly red as they looked at Lan Bingling's back.

They knew that the one in the most precarious position wasn't the two of them, but Lan Bingling.

However, for the sake of the two of them, Lan Bingling still entered the Broken Cliff Mountain Range with them without any hesitation. Even the usually carefree Huo Li 'er instantly feel a stream of water slowly flowing down her face.

After that, Kasri and Huo Li 'er looked at each other and wiped the tears from the corner of their eyes. They quickly chased after Lan Bingling's back.

At the same time, she made up her mind that as long as the two of them were not dead, she would never let anyone hurt Lan Bingling.

Roger, who had entered the Broken Cliff Mountain Range first, did not want anyone to find out that he was using magic.

At that moment, he was heading deeper into the Broken Cliff Mountain Range.

As the Broken Cliff Mountain Range was not large, every year, the Black Feather Knights of the Empire would enter it to train their soldiers and kill high-level savage beasts at the same time.

As a result, the highest level of savage beasts in the Broken Cliff Mountain Range was only at the fourth rank, and there were only a few of them.

Therefore, the Broken Cliff Mountain Range was known as one of the three major training grounds for newbies in the Empire. Every year, countless newbies who had just mastered the breathing technique would enter it to train their combat ability.

Roger did not know how long he had been walking, but he felt that he had entered the depths of the Mountain Range.

Roger immediately released his wind magic-wind perception. After confirming that there were only a few savage beasts in the surrounding area, he stopped and decided to start hunting.

Just as Roger stopped and was about to choose a savage beast to hunt, three first-rank savage beasts with the body of a mouse and spikes like a hedgehog, the Spiky Rat, discovered him.

They seemed to harbor some deep hatred for Roger. Their spikes instantly shot out, and with a roar, they quickly attacked Roger.

After learning from his memory that the spikes on the back of the Spike Rats could be fired like arrows, Roger immediately cast some water magic, Water Curtain, and covered himself in a layer of protective water curtain.

The spikes shot out, as expected.

When they reached him, they crouched down and fired their spikes at him.

However, these flying spikes did not even cause a ripple on the water screen before they were deflected to the ground.

When they saw how powerless their attacks were, they quickly turned tail and ran.

However, was Roger someone they could offend just because they wanted to?

With a wave of his hand, Roger turned the water curtain that enveloped him into three ice arrows, which directly nailed the three spike rats to the ground.

The death of the three spike rats was just the appetizer for Roger's journey. The second and third-rank savage beasts were the main course for Roger.
