Chapter 179 Leader

Wan Lei looked at the Jindan cultivator and couldn't help but take a few steps back. The other party's pressure was simply too strong.

The key was, looking at their attire, which was the same as Qi Manyao's, he couldn't figure out whether the other party would attack him.

Qi Manyao wanted to kill him, and if the other party was in cahoots with Qi Manyao, they would definitely kill him too. A Jindan powerhouse!

He couldn't beat them!

Not to mention beating them, even if Wan Lei used Lei Dun (Thunder Escape) now, he couldn't outrun a Jindan powerhouse.

The distance of Lei Dun was limited, and it couldn't be used endlessly. As soon as he appeared, the other party would be able to lock onto him and kill him with one strike.

Now, he could only pray that the other party wasn't with Qi Manyao, and wasn't here to kill him.

"Leader, you... how did you get here?"

Qi Manyao turned around and said in shock.

It's over, they really are together. I'll risk it. Whether I can escape depends on luck.

Wan Lei was about to use Lei Dun when suddenly, the black-clothed person's cultivation erupted, and a powerful pressure directly attacked Wan Lei, suppressing him.

Wan Lei anxiously tried to use Lei Dun, but he couldn't use it no matter what. The other party's pressure was too strong.

Qi Manyao stood up in panic, spread her arms to block the black-clothed person, and pleaded, "Leader, you can't kill him."

Wan Lei was shocked when he heard this. He had just wanted to kill Qi Manyao, but now Qi Manyao was pleading for him?

The black-clothed person looked at Qi Manyao with indifferent eyes and asked softly, "Why?"

"Leader, he is my target. Didn't you say that the targets of the Scourge Organization can only be killed by one Scourge member, and other Scourge members are not allowed to interfere before the Scourge member executing the mission dies?"

Qi Manyao said anxiously.

The Scourge?

Wan Lei's heart stirred. The other party's organization was called the Scourge. What kind of organization was that? An assassin organization?

But how could an assassin organization like Qi Manyao, a silly girl? That's not professional, okay?

"Just for saying the organization's name, you deserve to die. What's more, if I hadn't acted just now, you would already be dead.

So, just consider yourself dead. This target is handed over to me."

The black-clothed person said without any emotional fluctuations.

"But I'm not dead yet, am I? If you want to kill him... then kill me first."

Qi Manyao said after a moment of hesitation.

At this moment, there was finally emotion in the black-clothed person's eyes.

He looked at Qi Manyao with the eyes of an idiot and said slowly, "If we weren't short on manpower right now, I could kill you now! Get out of the way, don't block my path."

"No!"

Qi Manyao stubbornly blocked the black-clothed person.

The black-clothed person became impatient. He pushed Qi Manyao away and pointed his sword directly at Wan Lei.

"As a dignified Jindan powerhouse, isn't it a bit undignified to attack a Initial Force Realm cultivator?"

A familiar voice came from behind Wan Lei.

Hearing this voice, Wan Lei turned around in surprise and saw the newcomer dressed in white, handsome and elegant.

It was Wan Hongxin.

"Wan Hongxin."

The black-clothed person's eyes became as still as an ancient well again, as if looking at a stranger.

They seemed to be strangers in the first place...

"Who are you? When did my son provoke your Scourge Organization? To actually make you, a Jindan powerhouse, take action personally?"

Wan Hongxin asked coldly.

Listening to his father's tone, he knew about this Scourge Organization.

Wan Lei pondered in his heart.

"Hmph, a person who can attract heavenly punishment must be an evil person. You know our Scourge's purpose. There's no need to ask why we're killing Wan Lei."

The black-clothed person sneered.

"Although my son is mischievous, he has never done anything that harms nature and reason. As for the so-called heavenly punishment, it's just nonsense, nothing more than rumors from the common people."

Wan Hongxin would definitely not admit that Wan Lei had been struck by heavenly punishment.

"Hmph, the Scourge's intelligence never makes mistakes. Fine, I'll give Wan Hongxin face this time. Before Wan Lei forms his Jindan, I won't take action personally. He is still this girl's target.

When he forms his Jindan, his level of sin will increase, and I will definitely take action. Farewell!"

After the black-clothed person finished speaking, he pulled Qi Manyao up and wanted to leave.

"Hmph, I don't care who you are, but if you want to kill my son, then you are my, Wan Hongxin's, enemy. You should just die here!"

As Wan Hongxin spoke, a sword appeared in his hand, and a sword ray slashed towards the black-clothed person.

The black-clothed person sneered, and a strange sphere appeared in his hand, which he immediately crushed.

The sphere exploded, and a large cloud of white smoke rose. When they looked again, the figures of the black-clothed person and Qi Manyao had disappeared from the spot.

"Hmph, these Scourge members are like rabbits, they run so fast."

Wan Hongxin curled his lips and put away his sword.

"Dad, how did you get here? When did you arrive?"

This was the first time Wan Lei called Wan Hongxin "Dad."

Wan Hongxin said, "I arrived when you were fighting with that little girl. It was raining outside, and I felt uneasy, so I wanted to discuss the next tribulation with you.

But I couldn't find you at home. After thinking about it, I thought that you could absorb lightning, so you must have come out to improve your cultivation.

This is the hidden place you often go to, so I looked for it and watched for a while. I didn't plan to take action, but when that Jindan cultivator came out, I had no choice but to come out."

Wan Lei felt a warmth in his heart when he heard this. This old man was indeed a genius, much smarter than those assassins.

"What is the Scourge Organization?"

Wan Lei asked curiously.

Wan Hongxin glanced at the corpse on the ground and said with a somewhat ugly expression, "The Scourge Organization is a relatively hidden assassin organization, but on this continent, as long as you are a slightly stronger powerhouse, and those larger families, you have heard of this organization.

The Scourge Organization is spread all over the continent. Almost every city has their stronghold, but no one knows where their strongholds are.

Although it is an assassin organization, this organization does not kill for money, but only kills evil people. They punish evil and promote good, rob the rich and help the poor, under the banner of executing punishment on behalf of heaven.

They have clear doctrines, strict systems, and are extremely mysterious. As long as they identify a target, they will never give up. As long as the target does not die, no matter how many people die, they must continue to hunt them down.

It can be said that they are like a group of lunatics brainwashed by a cult, completely disregarding their own life and death, acting very extreme. For the sake of the good in their hearts, they can do anything."

Wan Lei's heart stirred when he heard this, and he felt a bit of goodwill towards this Scourge.

In his previous life, he was also such a god who executed punishment on behalf of heaven, punishing evil and promoting good.

"Dad, why do you say they are lunatics? Isn't it good for them to do good deeds and kill evil people?"

Wan Lei asked doubtfully.

"Hmph, you don't understand. What is good and evil? Everyone has different standards in their hearts.

In their eyes, as long as you don't meet their standards, then you are evil. Even if you think you are doing good deeds, as long as they think it is an evil deed, then they will kill you."

Wan Hongxin snorted coldly.
