Chapter 22 - Discovered

"Yes, yes, I understand!"

Hearing this, Red Tiger quickly nodded and cupped his hands respectfully.

He was only afraid of his big brother. Once Regiment Commander became angry, he would even kill his own people.

"According to the information I received earlier, the guy who destroyed the lightning array seems to be a monster. As for what it is exactly, your Second Uncle said that he didn't see it clearly. However, I speculate that the monster must have taken the target away. So, let's meet up with your Second Uncle first. Then, we can discuss the matter of hunting the target." The red robed man said.

While Red Tiger and the red-robed man were talking, Li Yaodao, who had decided to leave, moved to a hidden spot on a tree. He clearly heard what the red-robed man said. His eyes flashed as he flickered his tongue.

"Great, I was wondering why I was in such a dangerous situation when I was just reborn. It seems like I was with the target they were talking about!"

Li Yaodao studied the situation carefully and realized that something was amiss. First, the red-robed man and Red Tiger did not know that he was the one who destroyed the thunder array. Second, they believed that the "target" should be with him right now.

However, he had never seen the mysterious target before. He did not know anything about it. Moreover, the situation was urgent. Breaking the array was the most important thing. Who would care about anything else?

Since there were too few clues, Li Yaodao did not waste his time thinking about it. However, when he thought about how he was almost killed when he was just reborn, he could not help but be angry. His eyes were fierce.

"No matter who they are targeting, just based on the fact that you almost killed me, we have a huge grudge against each other!"

Previously, Li Yaodao did not know who the owner of the thunder array was. Today, there was a cause and effect. Naturally, his eyes would turn red when he saw his enemy.

"But I have to plan carefully. The red-robed man's aura is much stronger than mine. He is even stronger than the Snake Queen …" Li Yaodao stared at the Blood Tiger Mercenary Group and sneered.

"I have enough defense now, but I do not have enough strength to break through their defenses. So, I have to get the Spirit Gathering Pearl first."

"As long as I get the Spirit Gathering Pearl and advance to the Innate Realm, I will reach Rank Two Evolution. Then … Hehe!"

"As the saying goes, revenge is a dish best served cold. I will let them know what it means to be afraid of being bitten by a snake for ten years!"

Rustle …

The snake's body was like liquid, and it could change its shape. As Li Yaodao's snake tail swayed unconsciously, the rustling sound of the scales rubbing against the branches spread out. Li Yaodao thought, "Oh no!"

"The plan for this operation is different from the previous ones. Your Uncle Hong will tell you the details of the next step when the time comes …"

Before the red-robed man, who was about to leave, could finish his sentence, he seemed to have sensed something. The corners of his mouth curled up in a sinister and cold arc. It was unknown when, but a few sharp metal pieces had appeared in his hand. With a powerful momentum, he threw them in a certain direction.

Swoosh!

The speed of the metal pieces was so fast that they created sonic booms in the air. Their target was a hidden treetop, where Li Yaodao was!

"Oh no, I've been discovered!"

Li Yaodao saw the four metal pieces coming at him. He used his talent, Swift Shadow, to dodge them and jumped to another tree.

Creak … Bang!

The thick trees that were hit by the metal shrapnel also collapsed under Li Yaodao's widened eyes.

"Who is it!"

Hong Hu reacted in time. Seeing that his brother was attacking somewhere, it meant that there was someone else hiding in the dark. He immediately gathered the other mercenaries and prepared for battle.

On the other hand, after dodging the metal shrapnel attack, Li Yaodao was now on a tree branch that was further away. He was sweating.

"Damn, what kind of strength is this …" Li Yaodao was shocked. He was glad that he dodged in time. Otherwise, he would have been pinned to the tree.

However, after this short and long encounter, Li Yaodao understood that the red-robed man was not easy to deal with. He was stronger than he had imagined.

"I can't stay here for long. I should leave now!"

Just as Li Yaodao was about to leave, he suddenly heard a few soft creaking sounds.

Li Yaodao looked in the direction of the voice. If he did not look, he would not have known.

Swoosh swoosh swoosh …

He saw that under the tree branch that had collapsed, a few metal beams suddenly shot out and went straight for Li Yaodao.
