Chapter 1231: Chapter 1226: Leading Disaster Elsewhere

"Moo!" The giant elephant swung its trunk and smashed it onto the ground, splattering mud all over Qin Hao’s face.

Qin Hao spat out the mud, didn’t have time to wipe his face, and heard another sound approaching.

He flashed aside again, dodged the elephant’s air vortex, and cursed, "You little bear, you showing off, huh! A man can be killed but not humiliated! I’m gonna go all out with you!"

As he spoke, he was about to stop running, when he faintly heard some sounds coming from not far away.

His heart suddenly jolted. He looked toward the source of the sound. "Seems like... there are people over there?"

In an instant, a plan took shape in his mind. Qin Hao didn’t think twice, twisted his feet, and ran straight toward the source of the sound.

...

"Boss, isn’t this forest a little too boring?"

On the western side of the forest, a squad was moving between the trees.

The one speaking was a woman dressed sexy, with two daggers hanging at her waist.

If Qin Hao were here, he would definitely throw her a furious glare.

Because this woman was none other than the assassin Emily.

She glanced at the sky with a complaining look. "We came to snatch treasure, but after walking for so long, all we’ve seen are useless flowers and grass, haven’t even seen a single powerful beast. So lame!"

Beside her, the Human was carrying a bag in his hand, filled with herbs they’d just picked.

He actually showed a rare smile. "Emily, these flowers and grass are rare herbs. Out there, every single herb here is worth at least a million. You know, all those Elixirs on you are refined from these herbs."

"That’s all thanks to the president’s wisdom."

Emily properly flattered him, then grabbed the dagger at her waist in her hand, licked her tongue, and said, "The Night Emperor that the president values so much is actually just a mediocre piece of trash. Really don’t get why the old man thinks so highly of that garbage."

At the mention of Qin Hao, more anger appeared on the Human’s face. "Emily, you’re right. The Night Emperor really is trash. He doesn’t deserve the president’s evaluation. This time, if he hadn’t run so fast, I would’ve taken his head for sure."

"Hope we run into him later... or I’ll die of boredom."

Although Emily was smiling, her voice was sinister, and the daggers in her hands gleamed with a cold light.

The other members of the squad saw this scene and all felt a chill in their hearts, quietly edging away from her.

Emily’s killing intent had flared up. That Night Emperor was probably done for!

Just then.

Thump!

A rather loud sound came from not far away.

A member of the squad was shocked. "What’s going on?"

Thud!

The second sound came.

Someone cried out in surprise, "Sounds like an earthquake?"

"No! It can’t be an earthquake!"

Emily held her dagger, staring toward the direction of the sound, eyes wary. "An earthquake wouldn’t move this lightly. This sounds more like... the noise caused by some animal walking?"

The thumping sound continued.

But everyone wasn’t that nervous anymore.

They were a professional squad of the Evil God Association.

In the team they had powerhouses like the Human and Emily.

What was there to be afraid of?

One team member said, "We’ve seen the biggest hippos and elephants in Africa. But even those animals shouldn’t be able to cause such loud tremors!"

"I don’t think it’s an animal either." The Human’s eyes narrowed. "There’s no such powerful animal in this world. Maybe a dinosaur."

"Then what do you think it is, Captain?" Emily asked ambiguously.

The Human stared toward the source of the sound.

Over there, the noise was getting louder and faster. Something seemed to be drawing close.

The Human’s expression didn’t change. "Maybe it’s just a small earthquake..."

Halfway through his sentence—

Swish!

A clump of brush not far away split in two.

A figure jumped out from inside, rolled three times on the ground after landing, then scrambled up and continued sprinting without the slightest pause.

And the direction he was running in was exactly where the Human and the others were.

Seeing someone burst out, the Human and the others were startled.

It was actually a person? 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

How could a person cause such huge tremors?

When they clearly saw the man’s face, everyone was shocked again.

The Human came to his senses the fastest, and roared with hatred on his face, "Night Emperor!"

Emily, on the other hand, excitedly gripped her dagger. "The prey’s here! The boring time is finally over!"

The two of them spat out cruel words, instinctively tensing their bodies, ready to strike once Qin Hao got close.

But gradually, they sensed something was off.

Qin Hao had clearly seen them too.

But there was no fear or panic on his face, only a trace of surprise.

After the surprise, the expression on his face became complicated.

Like he was relieved, yet also mocking.

No matter how you looked at it, that face was full of schadenfreude.

What was going on?

This bastard, how could he still be smirking at a time like this?

Was he not afraid of dying?

At that moment, not just the Human—everyone felt utterly puzzled.

The next second.

The answer arrived.

Crack!

Bang!

A tree so thick two people couldn’t wrap their arms around it snapped and fell.

Leaves flew, dust billowed, dirt blasted everywhere.

In the chaos, a gigantic mass revealed its shadow.

"Fuck! What’s that! How can it be so big! A dinosaur?!"

A squad member shouted in shock, his face completely changing.

Whoosh!

A storm-like gale followed that huge silhouette.

Very soon, blown by the wind, the dust dispersed, and the colossal creature revealed its true form.

"Shit! It really is a damn elephant!"

Someone clutched his hair and screamed, "Why is this elephant so huge?!"

"Fall back!"

Compared to his teammates, the Human was much more cautious.

The instant he saw the giant elephant, he immediately gave the order.

No matter how you looked at it, this giant elephant was a bit too huge, and it carried an indescribable sense of threat on its body.

However, even with the elephant appearing, the Human hadn’t given up on killing Qin Hao.

Instead of retreating, he charged forward, suddenly lunging and closing in on Qin Hao in an instant. "Die!"

With a ferocious roar, the Human threw a full-powered punch.

"Idiot!"

Qin Hao sneered inwardly and also slammed out a punch.

Boom!

The two fists collided, and a huge roar exploded in the air.

The air itself seemed to pause for a moment.

But soon, the silence shattered.

Whoosh whoosh!

Qin Hao’s figure defied gravity and flickered, actually brushing past the Human’s side.

The Human was shaken by the punch, his blood and qi surging; while he was adjusting himself, he had no chance to block Qin Hao.

His face changed slightly, but then quickly turned to delight.

Because a graceful figure was closing in on Qin Hao’s back.

The dagger in her hand had already stabbed into the back of Qin Hao’s neck.

"Emily!" The Human’s face lit up with joy.

They’d got him!

The Witch assassin Emily had executed the Night Emperor!

However, just as that thought appeared, Emily’s shocked cry exploded in the air. "That’s impossible!"

Immediately after, the Human saw Qin Hao’s skin shine with light, turning as tough as diamond.

And Emily’s dagger snapped cleanly into two!
