It's Not Easy to Be a Man After Travelling to the Future

Chapter 1002 It’s Me!

From everyone’s positions, Hades was the only one who was able to sneak attack the young man. However, after they calmed down, they knew that Hades wasn’t the one who did it. They couldn’t sense any of Hades’s domain energy in the air, but that shouldn’t be possible if he had attacked the young man unless Hades was more powerful than them. But, if he was really powerful, he wouldn’t be hurt by Ling Lan.

If it wasn’t Hades, who was it? They didn’t suspect Ling Lan. Although Ling Lan was half step into imperial stage, she still had to resist against both their attacks. Plus, they were standing between Ling Lan and the young man. She couldn’t have evaded them and sneaked an attack onto the young man.

Were there someone else here? The elder and the middle-aged man were on their guard. They wanted to find the hidden enemy.

“I don’t know what agreement you made with Hades but since Hades is dead, the agreement is irrelevant now. There’s no point fighting with each other as it will only give the outsider an opportunity to take advantage of us.” Ling Lan looked at the young man as she continued, “This outsider is able to attack the young man without either of us noticing him so he must be as strong as us. From the looks of it, he came for you all.”

The elder nodded seriously.

Ling Lan said indifferently, “I’ve finished my task so I’ll not interfere with your matter. Goodbye.” Ling Lan disappeared.

The elder and the middle-aged man didn’t let down their guard just yet. They waited for a few minutes and confirmed that Ling Lan was gone. They also didn’t feel anyone’s presence around them. The elder signaled at the middle-aged man and asked him to look at the young man.

The middle-aged man flipped the young man over. There was a knife stabbed in his heart. From the spot where the young man was lying, the knife came from Hades’ direction. No wonder he yelled Hades when he fell.

The middle-aged man inspected the young man’s wound. He was elated. He quickly took out an intensive recovery agent and fed it to the young man. Then, he used his domain energy to stop the blood from flowing out. After that, he used two fingers to grab the knife and pull it out.

“How is it?” The elder asked in concern.

“Qingyi’s heart is quite unique. It’s nearer to his right chest so he managed to survive this attack,” the middle-aged man said happily.

“That’s good. It’s a pity that Hades Palace is in shambles,” the elder sighed.

“No worries. We just need to use more effort to make a new Hades.” The middle-aged man replied, “If we’re not afraid that the other countries will notice our actions, we won’t need to make use of Hades Palace’s name.”

“The various countries have been putting in more effort to annihilate the Soul Society so the headquarters had no choice but to start anew.” The elder sighed again. This was why they came to the Chaotic Lands. They needed to survive.

The middle-aged man smiled bitterly. Soul Society killed many important people from various countries so it was understandable that they were in such a situation. If the various countries weren’t already occupied with their enemy countries, their situation might have been even more dire than their current situation.

“Cough.” The young man finally woke up. He coughed out a mouthful of blood and opened his eyes. When he saw the middle-aged man, he immediately shouted agitatedly, “Hades, he...”

“It’s not him.” The middle-aged man told the young man the truth.

“Huh?” The young man was stunned. Before he went unconscious, he thought that it was Hades. Did he curse the wrong person?

“Who is it then?” The young man was indignant when he remembered that he almost died. “Is it that man in the black windbreaker?”

“No. He didn’t have the chance to attack you.” The middle-aged man denied the young man’s guess.

The young man was stunned once again. He asked curiously, “Who on earth is it?”

The middle-aged man gave a forced smile. “We don’t know either. It might be a powerful person who used some special method to hide his presence. Either that or he is an...” Imperial realm formidable warrior! The middle-aged man shook his head as he denied his own thoughts. He couldn’t understand why an imperial realm formidable warrior would attack the young man who was just at the peak stage of Qi-Jin.

The young man was flabbergasted when he heard that even the elder and the middle-aged man didn’t know who their opponent was. “Then... is it dangerous here?”

“Let’s go back. The people below will take over Hades’ power.” The elder felt that this place was unsafe too so he wanted to quickly return to their base.

It could be said that the recovery agent in this world was very powerful. The young man, who was on the brink of death just a moment ago, managed to recover much of his injury after resting for two hours. Of course, this was because he didn’t injure his vital organs.

The three of them ate dinner and discussed their future plans. The elder and the middle-aged man were the ones talking while the young man just listened to them.

“We didn’t sense the person who injured Qingyi. We need to be aware of him.” The middle-aged man took a sip of hard liquor. This person injured the young man without alerting them.

“I checked all the data of domain realm masters when I came back. I feel that some people are suspicious. Qingyi, send some people to investigate them.” The elder named some domain realm masters who had special stealth techniques. He asked Xia Qingyi to see if any of them had sneaked into the Chaotic Lands.

“I understand, Third Elder, Deacon Lin.” Xia Qingyi nodded. Although he was the leader on the surface, these two people were the ones in power.

“Oh right, do you know who that man in the black windbreaker is?” Third Elder suddenly asked about Ling Lan.

“The leader of Little Four Mercenary Team,” Xia Qingyi answered.

The investigating ability of Soul Society was powerful. He was able to find Ling Lan’s identity within two hours.

“Little Four?” He should have become one of the kings of the mercenary world with his ability, but he couldn’t seem to remember any king coming from such a childish sounding mercenary team.

“He might be in disguise,” Xia Qingyi added.

“Find out where this person is and kill him if there is a chance,” Third Elder said coldly. He wouldn’t allow such a powerful threat to leave the Chaotic Lands. That person would be a massive threat to their Soul Society in the future.

“Yes!” Xia Qingyi replied with a smile.

Third Elder nodded at him and continued gorging his food. Suddenly, he looked up and stared at the smile on Xia Qingyi’s face intently.

He was familiar with this smile. Xia Qingyi always wore this smile when he was in a negotiation or when he was greeting guests. It looked sincere but it was extremely fake. In the past, Xia Qingyi always wore a serious expression when talking to them. He never showed his smile to them.

“Qingyi, why are you smiling?” Deacon Lin noticed something amiss too.

Xia Qingyi didn’t reply to him.

“Are you unhappy with our arrangement?” Third Elder asked him coldly.

“No!” Xia Qingyi continued smiling.

“Why are you smiling then?” That smile was infuriating.

“He is laughing at you because you’re going to die soon but you still want to kill me.” A calm voice rang in the room.

A masked man in a black windbreaker appeared beside Xia Qingyi.

“Master!” Xia Qingyi stood up immediately and greeted the person with respect.

Third Elder and Deacon Lin ‘s expressions changed. They suddenly thought of something and pointed at Xia Qingyi. “It’s you.”

“It’s me!” Xia Qingyi smiled. “I stabbed myself.”
