In the depths of the forest, a group of six people was continuously moving forward—five men and one woman. Among them, there was not a single weakling; each person exuded a strong aura. Even the beasts hidden in the woods, upon seeing the six together, abandoned their plans to ambush. Their intelligence was not inferior to that of humans, so why would they seek their own demise?
“Zhou Hanbin, how much further do we have to go? An hour ago, you said we were only a few miles away. We must have covered at least ten miles in this hour, so why haven’t we arrived yet…” Zhao Ang suddenly stopped, his eyes fixed on Zhou Hanbin, his expression unfriendly as he questioned.
As soon as Zhao Ang finished speaking, Sun Zhe and Shen Yan also halted, their gazes directed at Zhou Hanbin, clearly hoping for an explanation.
“Cough, there’s no need to rush, everyone. I haven’t been to that place either, so I can’t be certain of its exact location. However, I can guarantee that we will definitely arrive within half an hour…” Zhou Hanbin glanced at the map in his hand and spoke apologetically.
“Hmph, Zhou Hanbin, to be honest, I don’t trust your character. Show me the map you’re holding first, and then I’ll make my plans…” Zhao Ang’s anger remained evident as he pointed directly at the map in Zhou Hanbin’s hand.
Upon hearing Zhao Ang’s words, Zhou Hanbin’s expression changed slightly, and a glimmer of light flickered in his eyes.
“Zhou Hanbin, I would also like to see the map you’re holding…” Sun Zhe’s face darkened as he slowly stood up and walked in front of Zhou Hanbin coldly. At this moment, he no longer referred to him as Senior Brother Zhou. With Zhou Hanbin’s intelligence, how could he make such a low-level mistake? There was clearly something fishy going on here.
At that moment, the two Inner Sect Disciples stepped forward simultaneously and positioned themselves in front of Sun Zhe. From their expressions, it was clear they had been prepared for this.
Suddenly, the atmosphere among the group became tense.
“Cough, Sun Zhe, one must have self-awareness; some things are beyond your reach. Do you understand?” Zhou Hanbin looked at Sun Zhe indifferently and lightly raised his right hand. Purple arcs of electricity danced in his palm, shimmering with different colors under the glaring sunlight.
Just then, Sun Zhe's pupils suddenly constricted as he turned around sharply. Unbeknownst to him, several figures had emerged from the forest.
“Haha… Sun Zhe, do you still recognize me…” A resentful voice echoed from behind them as a young man dressed in a Qingyi approached the group. His cold gaze was fixed on Sun Zhe; he was none other than Aoye, the young master of Aohumen who had nearly died at Sun Zhe's hands.
As the gray figure flickered and stopped beside Aoye, another Gray-Clad Man simultaneously revealed himself next to him.
"Tong Yuan..." Shen Yan couldn't help but exclaim.
The Gray-Clad Man was none other than Tong Yuan, who had been defeated by Yan Ji in the grand competition due to carelessness. In that battle, his spirit beast was also slain by Yan Ji, and Tong Yuan himself suffered severe injuries. However, at this moment, Tong Yuan had completely shed the defeat from the last battle; he appeared rejuvenated, his aura remarkably stable, as if he had undergone a transformation, and his cultivation had made significant progress once again.
In response to Shen Yan's exclamation, he did not speak but merely faced everyone with indifference. Although he was blind, the way his sightless eyes gazed calmly at them gave an extremely dangerous feeling, as if they were being watched by a monster lurking in the depths of the forest.
Boom, boom, boom...
A series of muffled thunderous sounds echoed again. A few people looked up once more and saw a burly man striding toward them from not far away. His short black hair shone with oil, and his bronze skin radiated a strong and fierce aura. He resembled a human beast; with each step he took, the ground trembled slightly, and his imposing presence was quite intimidating.
Kuangba, the direct disciple of Zheng Kuanglei from Crimson Thunder Hall!
But it wasn't just the three of them who appeared; at the same time, four others emerged from the side of the jungle. Their identities were clear without needing to guess; their clothing made it evident that they were disciples from Aohumen and Crimson Thunder Hall, the remaining members of both sects.
Although the description was lengthy, all of this happened in the blink of an eye. In just a moment, Sun Zhe and his companions were surrounded. Four from Aohumen, three from Crimson Thunder Hall, plus three from Xuan Lei Sect, led by Zhou Hanbin, made a total of ten experts at the Thunder Master Level.
"Zhou Hanbin, you actually colluded with outsiders to harm your fellow sect members. Do you know what crime this is... Aren't you afraid of the Elder of the Sect finding out..." With a cold glare at Zhou Hanbin, Zhao Ang's face was dark enough to drip water. Even a fool could see what was happening now; it was clear that Zhou Hanbin had deliberately lured them here while the people from Aohumen and Crimson Thunder Hall had set up an ambush waiting for them to walk into a trap.
"I finally understand when I offended your Zhou family..." At this moment, Sun Zhe had calmed down instead and glanced indifferently at Zhou Hanbin, slowly speaking,
"Perhaps during the last Three Sect Competition, you intentionally lost to Kuangba, right..."
Upon hearing this, both Zhao Ang and Shen Yan looked at Zhou Hanbin in disbelief. To their surprise, Zhou Hanbin showed no intention of denying it; instead, there was a hint of rare astonishment on his face.
Deliberately losing to Kuangba... If it weren't for Sun Zhe showing up unexpectedly that time, Zhuang Ruoxuan would have undoubtedly lost as well. In that case, wouldn't the Xuan Lei Sect be doomed to lose? Could it be that at that time, Zhou Hanbin had already colluded with people from Aohumen and Crimson Thunder Hall, or had the Zhou family already conspired with the two sects? Just thinking about this made Zhao Ang and Shen Yan feel a chill in their hearts.
They looked at Sun Zhe with slight surprise, seemingly not expecting him to deduce all of this. However, there was a rare look of astonishment in Zhou Hanbin's eyes as he softly spoke,
"I didn't expect you to see through me... You did well. The matter with the Zhang Family was just a trivial issue. If it were only for that reason, I wouldn't have gone to such lengths to set this trap. With your Qualification, perhaps my Zhou family would even give up on trying to recruit you..."
"Unfortunately, you ruined our Zhou family's good fortune with both Aohumen and Crimson Thunder Hall. You certainly made quite an impression during that grand competition, but what you don't realize is that because of your performance, you completely offended both sects and my Zhou family. Now, it's time for you to pay the price..."
"Zhou Hanbin, the Xuan Lei Sect has treated you well, and your Zhou family has enjoyed countless favors from the Xuan Lei Sect for generations. Why betray the Sect..." Before Zhou Hanbin could finish his words, Zhao Ang couldn't help but shout angrily, his eyes filled with blazing fury as he stared intently at Zhou Hanbin, as if trying to see through his heart and lungs.
"I didn't expect the esteemed Zhao Dasha would lecture me about the favors of the Sect... Also, who in my Zhou family has betrayed the Sect? That's simply absurd..." With a disdainful glance at Zhao Ang, Zhou Hanbin showed no signs of hiding his contempt. However, as if recalling something, a faint smile appeared on his face.
"As for what role my Zhou family plays, I'm afraid you won't have the chance to see it. To be honest, your talent surpasses mine by a lot. Unfortunately, your character ensures that your achievements in this life will fall short of mine by a hundredfold. If you want to surpass me, perhaps in your next life..." As soon as he finished speaking, without hesitation, Zhou Hanbin waved his right hand, and immediately, the two Inner Sect Disciples in front of him charged towards Sun Zhe and the others.
The people from both Aohumen and Crimson Thunder Hall also took out their weapons without mercy and attacked Sun Zhe and his companions. Especially Aoye from Aohumen; his hatred for Sun Zhe was not trivial at all. As soon as he moved, he unleashed all his cultivation power; the spiritual energy of a Three-Star Thunder Master surged into his long sword, which immediately erupted with blinding blue light, directly enveloping Sun Zhe.
With ten experts at the Thunder Master Level surrounding them, there was almost no chance of escape...
