Chapter 402: 402
The sudden ghastly echo made everyone feel a chill down their spine.
They turned around in horror and saw a sleazy character with hands tucked into his sleeves, gazing at them with a sinister grin.
Yeah, coupled with that creepy face, unknowingly, he seemed highly distasteful!
Even Mo Yu felt an instinctive desire to beat him up.
However, everyone knew that this was their secret hideout, and they had carefully hidden their tracks on their way back. But, unexpectedly, someone had managed to track them down.
This could be a matter of life or death; if this turned out to be someone from the ancient tribe, they would be doomed!
Especially when they sensed that the aura exuded by Jiang Xiaobai was at the state of Dividing the Gods, it set their hearts pounding.
“Who are you!”
Mo Yu glared coldly at Jiang Xiaobai, wondering if his side could win if a fight ensued.
Of course, they could choose to escape, as the opponent was alone, but they had no idea whether there were others hiding in the dark and what this man’s identity was.
If he was a member of the ancient tribe, they might have to start living life on the run.
“Me?”
Jiang Xiaobai chuckled lightly, looking increasingly sleazier, “I am one of you.”
“What do you mean?”
Mo Yu furrowed his brows, remaining extremely vigilant. So did the experts of the Transcendence stage standing beside him. Their expressions were as if facing a great enemy, with some even tightly gripping their weapons.
“Aren’t you all facing the ancient tribe? Don’t you all hold a deep grudge against the ancient tribe? I’m the same.” Jiang Xiaobai casually said that, then his gaze fell on the young man pretending to be him.
“Not bad kid, you dare to impersonate Jiang Xiaobai, do you know what Jiang Xiaobai is to the ancient tribe?”
“Humph, he’s just an enemy of the ancient tribe. The ancient tribe wants to capture him, so I used him to lure the high-ranking ancient tribesmen.” The youngster huffed, acting arrogantly disdainful.
Good, very powerful.
He now held a new impression of this group of people – how brazen they dared to be despite knowing nothing, was this not akin to attracting death in a toilet with a lantern?
Shaking his head, he suddenly felt that seeking help to form an alliance was a wrong decision.
He originally thought this group of people knew what Jiang Xiaobai meant to the ancient tribe and acted accordingly. Now it seemed they were merely conveniently assembled.
Initially, he wanted to use this incident to make a move against the ancient tribe, but now, he thought better of it.

On one hand, because these were too weak, and on the other, they weren’t significantly knowledgeable or experienced about the ancient tribe nor ambitious enough.
They managed to get a treasure worth a billion from the ancient tribe and were already overly self-satisfied.
At this moment, Jiang Xiaobai planned to leave, but Mo Yu suddenly shouted.
“Stop, you can’t leave like that!”
It’s a joke. If this guy was from the ancient tribe and he let him go, wouldn’t he expose all the identities and locations of Mo Yu and his companions?
If the ancient tribe chased them afterwards, they wouldn’t even be able to escape.
But to this, Jiang Xiaobai simply ignored.
However, at that moment, two silhouettes abruptly dashed out from the dense forest and stood by Jiang Xiaobai’s side.
The instant Jiang Xiaobai saw these two people, he was taken aback.
How did these two guys appear here?
What’s going on!
“Heh heh, that’s good, Jiang Xiaobai, you really let this young master search hard enough!”
Ao Cheng then rubbed his hands together and said, “Earlier in the Thousand Yuan Dynasty, you knew well enough that I was there, and yet you didn’t come to find me. Furthermore, you dared to enter the Northern State alone. You really don’t know how to write the word ‘death’ do you?”
He had been searching for Jiang Xiaobai for a long time. Due to previous reasons, he felt guilty towards Jiang Xiaobai. So, he marched into the Thousand Yuan Dynasty with a royal presence, aiming to back up his brother Jiang Xiaobai.
However, after going through all the trouble, he did not even catch a glimpse of Jiang Xiaobai, not to mention having to chase him all the way to Northern State.
Ao Cheng was ridiculously infuriated at Jiang Xiaobai.
Now that he seized the opportunity, he naturally would not let Jiang Xiaobai go.
On the side, Zhuang Huanling was also all smiles. Even though he was wearing a veil, his teasing eyes laid bear for all to see. Anyone with a discerning eye would know he was ready for a show.
“Uh-uh, my good man, I think you’ve got the wrong person.”
Jiang Xiaobai hastily blurted out awkwardly and tried to push Ao Cheng away to leave.
After all, this was the Northern State, the territory of the ancient tribe.
He, Jiang Xiaobai, had various ways to escape, but Ao Cheng may not. Moreover, in this place, Ao Cheng’s identity was even more sensitive than his. He absolutely couldn’t let Ao Cheng get caught up in trouble.
The best thing to do now was to pretend not to know each other, and then urgently flee. Along the way, he would stir up some trouble and expose his own identity, so that Ao Cheng would be safe.
However, Ao Cheng disagreed with Jiang Xiaobai’s approach.
Ao Cheng directly grabbed Jiang Xiaobai’s collar and sent a punch flying.
Jiang Xiaobai didn’t dodge. He knew why Ao Cheng chased him to the Northern State. For this punch, he wasn’t qualified to dodge.
Thud!
The punch landed solidly on Jiang Xiaobai’s face. Ao Cheng, whose strength increased significantly and dragon blood was awakened, delivered an extremely powerful punch.
Jiang Xiaobai felt as if a freight train had hit his face. He was knocked to the ground, spitting out a mouthful of fresh blood.
At the sight of this, Ao Cheng was dumbfounded.
“Why the hell didn’t you dodge it!” Ao Cheng stomped his foot angrily, fiercely glaring at Jiang Xiaobai, wanting to kill him yet remaining motionless.
After a long time, Ao Cheng finally huffed.
“Let’s go.”
Zhuang Huanling raised his hand to stop him, “What’s this? Are you two brothers quarrelling?”
“Look at his condition. Don’t think I don’t know, you bastard just want to stir up trouble alone, not wanting to involve me!”
“I know my identity is sensitive, but you’re the only brother I have in this life. I came to the Northern State this time, not to catch you, but to stir up trouble with you!”
Ao Cheng shouted in fury.
Jiang Xiaobai’s heart was filled with emotion. He got up, and although his mouth was filled with blood, his face broke into an unreserved smile.
He knew that he had truly become a brother in the eyes of Ao Cheng.
As for the worries before.
Heh heh, two brothers in one life, Ao Cheng has made his stance clear, Jiang Xiaobai could no longer be unnecessarily modest!
“Alright, alright, I let you punch me once to let off steam.”
“It’s been so long, I didn’t expect your strength to increase so fast, huh?”
Jiang Xiaobai chuckled, punching Ao Cheng’s chest.
Ao Cheng snorted, “Take that crap off your face, it’s downright disgusting!”
Following that, Jiang Xiaobai rubbed his face, and his sleazy look instantaneously transformed into the handsome young Wu Shuang.
Witnessing this, Mo Yu, and the others who had been watching the show from a distance, were dumbfounded!
