The Speedrun Begins with Choosing Hunter

Chapter 439: Chapter 411: Big Beard

Bai Yuan raised his head, his eyes narrowing slightly.

At this moment, it was as if two scorching suns hung above the Barbarian Village. The Jinwu’s entire body erupted with fiery golden light, dazzling beyond compare.

"It really is you, human!"

The Jinwu looked down at Bai Yuan, a look of wild joy spreading across its face.

"Excellent."

Just then, a wisp of black smoke suddenly appeared beside the Jinwu and coalesced into a human form. This person was none other than the Vice Tower Master of the Soul-Chasing Tower.

He was also one of the two experts from the Demon Sect who had previously hunted Bai Yuan.

At the same time, a monster that looked neither like a deer nor a horse walked up to the entrance of the Barbarian Village—a Sibuxiang!

A terrifying pressure made the entire Barbarian Village tremble.

The old village chief and Gu Ta stared at the sudden turn of events, their faces filled with terror.

The other people in the village might not know the identities of these two demons and one man, but how could they not?!

The Jinwu, the Sibuxiang, and the Vice Tower Master of the Soul-Chasing Tower!!

These were all top-tier existences in the Northern Plains.

And today, three great masters had actually gathered here for one person alone—the mysterious expert among them.

’Just what kind of existence is this man who calls himself Ah Gu Da?’

The old village chief looked at Bai Yuan with a complicated expression.

It was obvious that these two demons and one man had come for Bai Yuan. The village would very likely be annihilated after today. In a battle between such experts, the villagers were no different from ants. They wouldn’t even need to be targeted directly; the aftershocks of the battle alone would be enough to wipe them out.

For a moment, he didn’t know whether to be grateful for the protection Bai Yuan had provided recently or to resent him for bringing such a catastrophe to their doorstep.

The Jinwu couldn’t care less what the old village chief and the people of this village thought.

It shot the Sibuxiang a smug look.

It was the one that had used a Secret Technique to find Bai Yuan. According to their prior agreement, the treasure was already its, regardless of the outcome. If they managed to kill this Xuan Yang human today, the reward from the Demon Sect would be even better.

The Sibuxiang snorted coldly, its killing intent erupting from its body.

’Since the Jinwu beat me to the punch, the only thing to do now is kill the Profound Person before us.’

It had already heard from the Soul-Chasing Tower’s Vice Tower Master about this human’s terrifying combat record. Including the previous Vice Tower Master, three Mingxin-level experts had already died at this person’s hands.

’If it were just me, I would, of course, turn and flee without hesitation.’

’But now there are three of us... The advantage is ours!’

The strength of the Jinwu and the Soul-Chasing Tower’s Vice Tower Master was undeniable. The chances of killing this Profound Person were still very high.

The Vice Tower Master of the Soul-Chasing Tower spoke slowly, "We meet again, Lord Bai."

Unlike the Jinwu and the Sibuxiang, the Soul-Chasing Tower’s foundations were in Xuan Yang itself, so this Vice Tower Master had a deep understanding of Bai Yuan.

If he could kill the Xuan Yang Court’s most sought-after Second-Grade Official here in the Northern Plains, it would even affect the Xuanyang National Fortune.

’He must be killed!’

The killing intent in the Vice Tower Master’s eyes grew heavier.

Because Mr. Yuan had sealed off news regarding the Demon Seed, only a few of its powerful experts knew of the connection to Bai Yuan. The rest, this Vice Tower Master included, were ignorant. Therefore, he would naturally attack without holding back.

Bai Yuan’s expression was placid.

He glanced at the golden pill floating in front of the Jinwu.

’Sun Chasing Soul...’

Thanks to the Ten Thousand Demons Painting, he knew a great deal about the Jinwu’s abilities. He just hadn’t expected this Crow Spirit, which possessed only a fraction of a Jinwu’s bloodline, to be capable of using such a technique.

’My luck really is terrible.’

He chuckled and shook his head.

Seeing the Profound Person below him act this way, the Jinwu became enraged.

He was completely surrounded, yet he could still laugh out loud. This was a direct insult to it.

Demons were by nature wild and unruly. Fights to the death over a single disagreement were all too common. If the Vice Tower Master of the Soul-Chasing Tower hadn’t been there, the Jinwu would have attacked long ago, given its temper.

Don’t be fooled by how subservient it was when facing Big Beard; to everyone else, it was the most savage greater demon in the world.

"What are you waiting for?"

"Attack!"

The Jinwu spoke in a human tongue, turning its head to look at the Vice Tower Master of the Soul-Chasing Tower.

The Vice Tower Master nodded and was the first to move, transforming into a streak of black light as he shot toward Bai Yuan.

Seeing this, the Jinwu let out a long cry to the heavens, then beat its wings and shot down like a sharp arrow.

The Sibuxiang was no slower. Its figure abruptly vanished from the village entrance, and in the next instant, it burst from the ground directly beneath Bai Yuan in a surprise attack.

Seeing this, the Barbarian Village instantly descended into chaos.

"Run!"

"Run!"

The old village chief roared.

Let alone the ordinary villagers, even he and Gu Ta were not qualified to interfere in a battle of this level. The shockwaves alone were enough to kill them.

This was the might of truly powerful experts.

With a calm and carefree expression, Bai Yuan stepped into the air, dodging the Sibuxiang’s ferocious strike.

Almost at the same instant, the Jinwu and the Vice Tower Master—one streak of gold and one of black—also arrived.

Even with his tyrannical combat power, facing three great masters at once was immensely taxing.

Bai Yuan ferociously fought one against three. Relying on the formidable defense of his Dragon and Tiger Vajra Strength, he barely managed to block the frenzied assault of the two demons and one man. Fighting as he retreated, he had left the Barbarian Village within three breaths’ time, and the battlefield shifted into the mountain forest.

BOOM!

A ball of scorching flame erupted from the Jinwu’s mouth, detonating in mid-air with a piercing sound.

With the Sibuxiang and the Vice Tower Master flanking him, Bai Yuan chose to take the hit head-on.

Under the enhancement of the Divine Mansion Technique, his Dragon and Tiger Vajra Strength forcibly absorbed the Jinwu’s terrifying strike.

Seeing this, the two demons and one man’s expressions all changed in unison.

This Profound Person was terrifyingly strong!

Although the Jinwu only had half the bloodline of an Ancient Divine Beast, its ultimate technique—which gathered the Heaven and Earth Fire Element—had been easily blocked by Bai Yuan. That level of defense was too frightening.
