Su Changxing looked at Jie Chuan, who was panting heavily, and asked, "You want to leave?"

Jie Chuan broke out in cold sweat immediately and quickly replied:

"Sir, if everyone leaves together, no one can survive, so we had to resort to this desperate measure. It’s... it’s something we had no choice but to do."

Su Changxing waved his hand and said slowly, "Don’t be nervous, your decision wasn’t necessarily wrong. However, you won’t be able to escape, at least not on your own."

This was the truth. Not one of these people was an Extraordinary or a Player, and they had few weapons, facing either slightly stronger monsters or those Otherworld soldiers meant certain death.

"Then, then what do we do?"

Jie Chuan stammered, somewhat unclear about Su Changxing’s intentions.

In his view, Su Changxing, being as strong as he was, could definitely lead them out.

Su Changxing revealed a satisfied smile and said, "Find a hidden place to hide first; I’ll lead you part of the way."

"Okay, sir."

Seeing that Su Changxing did not pursue the matter, Jie Chuan breathed a sigh of relief, while a chill rose in his heart, thinking this felt like what had happened before they encountered the Corpse Ghost.

Due to Su Changxing’s presence, the cohesion among these people increased significantly, at least preventing anyone from thinking of leaving alone.

Su Changxing walked up to Xu Kai, produced an Ancient Bronze Pendant in the shape of a handgun, and handed it to him, speaking in a low voice:

"This thing can guide you to become an Extraordinary; just wear it around your neck."

This was not the Ancient Bronze Pendant that Henry had given him, but a replica. Although styled differently, it had similar functions.

[Pathfinder Pendant (Rank C Crown, Upper Rank): The lighthouse on the Black Sea, clears the gray mist, guides people to the path of the Extraordinary.]

This inherently concealed an equivalent exchange, also being a mutual process of taking, with Su Changxing standing on the upper rank, while Xu Kai was underneath.

Xu Kai took the pendant, his arm trembling slightly, and asked, "Just wear it, and that’s all?"

Su Changxing nodded and said, "Yes, just wear it. If you still have not become an Extraordinary before the halo on it fades, it means you don’t have this talent."

As Xu Kai wore the pendant, Su Changxing instantly felt a subtle connection; it was as if he became a massive shadow enveloping Xu Kai and influencing him.

Immediately after, Su Changxing led the group eastward across the wilderness, avoiding most monsters using a wide range of perception, making the journey relatively easy.

Ge Yunhua, armed with a map, observed and said, "Leader Su, there’s another town ahead; we may be able to hide there. There might still be other survivors."

Su Changxing stopped, looked back, and nodded, saying, "Hmm, you should head over first."

"Teacher, aren’t you coming with us?" Xu Kai asked.

Su Changxing shook his head and said, "There are some issues behind us that need handling; act according to the situation."

Many Black Crow soldiers followed their tracks.

What happened last night was undoubtedly like poking a hornet’s nest, with an entire squad of Black Crow soldiers being wiped out without even sending out extra alert signals.

They only discovered this squad of Black Crow soldiers was missing in the morning and tracked them to that dilapidated town.

Su Changxing also realized the problem, laying out numerous Evil Spirits in the town, which, however, did not seem to delay for too long.

The target of these Black Crow soldiers was him, and he needed to lure them away. Otherwise, if they caught up, no one besides him would survive.

Su Changxing used a "Living Wooden Puppet" to create a decoy corp, sending it running west across the wilderness to attract attention.

Meanwhile,

he sprinted back quickly, soon spotting hundreds of Black Armored Soldiers appearing in the wilderness, heading straight in his direction.

The opposition seemed to have confirmed his position through some means, but surely did not expect him to circle back.

Among these individuals, none seemed to include a Wizard; the Black Crow Battle Group appears to lack Wizards, but this did not imply weakness.

Su Changxing stood atop a distant tree, raised his Sniper Rifle, aimed at an officer-like figure, amassed "Gunfire Judgment," and then pulled the trigger.

The bullet pierced through space, struck that person’s body, leaving a long mark on the ground.

The person’s face changed dramatically, sensing danger, but before reacting, his head exploded, his body collapsing.

In such a scenario, the remaining soldiers showed no sign of chaos, immediately pinpointing Su Changxing’s position and encircling him.

With the sharp wind, Su Changxing felt a sting on his skin and quickly turned to look.

A figure clad in a black Cloak quietly appeared behind him, aiming a dagger at his occiput.

Blood spurted as his head was pierced through...

Su Changxing was startled, activating "Timing Prediction," realizing only at the moment the figure approached, also feeling a chill up his spine, nearly failing to react.

The grim face under the Cloak showed a hint of joy as he anticipated the enemy’s death.

The next moment, golden light as if Dusk enveloped him and, looking surprised, Su Changxing drew his Revolver, shooting him clean through.

A swift and clean kill.

The attacker turned into a corpse falling from the air, hitting the ground heavily.

[Shadow Wizard: Tier Seven, a special type of wizard among wizards, possessing a complete advancement system but with extremely high compatibility requirements.]

"Had you been lying in wait here earlier? I really was a bit careless," Su Changxing sighed; if not for his Domain instantly expanding around him, he would have been stabbed.

The distant Black Crow soldiers were surprised as Su Changxing instantly killed the Cloaked figure.

A prominent figure in their battle group, renowned for assassination, had even once killed a Red Robed Wizard, creating quite the reputation.

While killing the Cloaked figure, Su Changxing rapidly retreated, spotting a spinning Flying Axe appearing in his field of vision.

A towering figure crashed through thick trees while running, wielding a massive Battle Axe, charging at the forefront.

His muscles exaggerated as if about to burst, colliding with his tendons like thunderous booms.

Twisting his body, he turned and threw the Battle Axe towards Su Changxing’s position, the blade’s friction with the air producing dazzling sparks.

Seeing this, Su Changxing swiftly dodged sideways, but realized it was unavoidable; the axe locked onto him tightly, carrying a suffocating pressure.

Unavoidable!

At that moment, it felt as if cause and effect were reversed, the axe flying towards him precluding its impact, with great corrective force.

Su Changxing’s body became an ephemeral image, briefly entering an interstitial space to evade, but the axe seemed to slow down there momentarily, gliding through the air.

The next moment, the figure rushed to Su Changxing, grabbing the axe, and swung it down.

Boom~

A great crashing sound.

Su Changxing flew backward accordingly, landing steadily, watching the Barbarian-like human, with a smile curling at his lips:

"I didn’t expect you to hit me so easily."

The opponent’s moves were straightforward and clear, seemingly ordinary, yet almost severed his arm.

The "Barbarian" showed a cruel smile and said, "I didn’t expect you would dodge either; quite surprising, but it’s no wonder for someone who killed the ’Undead Roko.’"

Su Changxing stood straight and said slowly, "Undead Roko? Are you talking about the Plum Blossoms-faced one?"

"Heh yes, he was my brother, also a strong one; your ability to kill him proves your prowess."

The "Barbarian" chuckled holding the Battle Axe.

Suffocating might radiated from him, bloodthirsty and frenzied.

"Indeed? You are stronger than him, yet still doomed."

Su Changxing’s smile grew exaggerated, eyes widening, silver light erupting as his hands traced imaginary lines in the air.
