《The Wandering God》Chapter 21 : Tremble Ravenous Tigers! ( pt.2 )
Advertisement
Wyndinn stood in a stupor, he couldn't believe what he is seeing, nobody could.
*Prang!* A glass of booze fell into the wooden floor.
" Captn'..n-no impossible! " one of the men stuttered in horror, he raised the head of Bulfersag carefully, whose face still maintained that gleeful smile.
It was only then did Wyndinn broke out of his daze, his eyes narrowed slightly. While he did not know what kind of being could possibly kill those 3 without leaving a single trace, he realized that what's more important is that currently he is not out of danger yet, albeit his chance to escape has gotten so much higher.
He suddenly sprang up from the bar he is standing, his two hands forming an X on his belly imitating a swan dance. Two razor blades silently slipped into his hands and in an instant, he wildly swung open his arms and twirled in the sky, a slashing sound reverberated in the air as 4 heads dropped into the ground, dead.
Borrowing the momentum of his attack and the moment of confusion, he stepped into one of the falling headless body that he had just decapitated before, leaping out of the encirclement of the bandits.
It was only then did the bandits awoken from their stunned silence. They grew mad and hateful that they had allowed Wyndinn to kill 4 of their brothers and escaped their encirclement in the moment of confusion. Each of them sheathed their blades and screamed at the top of their lungs, attacking Wyndinn from all sides.
In actuality, none of them had actually cared about these 4 dead 'brothers' of them. They are all selfish in nature and won't hesitate to kill anybody if it meant that they could live.
They are only angered because with 4 people down, it would be harder to kill Wyndinn, and after all this events, even if they manage to kill Wyndinn, they would have no idea how to report to their boss Mad Tiger that 3 of his captains had died.
They would already be considered lucky if they could survive the Boss outrage, not to mention getting a losing a limb or two! As such, Wyndinn had became their platform to vent their frustrations.
But sadly, almost all of these bandits are stuck at the 3rd rank of the first realm, with some of them only at the 2nd rank, and none of the 4th rank the mark of the 2nd realm.
One must know that each and every rank represented a cumulative difference in power! Especially a difference between two realms.
While one might only be a 4th rank, a 4th ranked warrior alone is enough to face 10 3rd rank warriors without breaking a sweat! Of course, there are exceptions. Even so, these exceptions are restricted to some geniuses or those who come from a sect with a deep amount of heritage.

And while it may seem overwhelming, to advance realms is in fact not an easy task. It is proven by the fact that out of 100 3rd rankers, perhaps only 2 or 3 4th rankers might emerge from that group..
Thus, the result of the battle is easy to predict. Wyndinn who has already reached the middle point of the 5th rank and is accounted as the brightest genius of his kingdom, had easily massacred all the bandits in the bar, which reached around 30 bandits or so.
He then step out of the door, his gaze cold. He sent one last glance into the body of the 3 leaders, wondering whose work it was before he headed out into the darkness..
~~~
Seconds before the incident at the bar happened..
An invisible energy swept out, covering the whole mountain in densely packed energy.
An enraged Li Zun observed all of the happenings within the mountain, his gaze turning colder and colder at every moment.
Within a single glance, Li Zun had already identified a hundred members of the Ravenous Tigers that is engraved on Mad Tiger's mind.
Then..
With a single 'humph' of Li Zun..
*Whoosh*
Almost instantaneously, hundreds of heads flew away from their necks and plopped into the ground.
The process was so quick and unexpected that all of them..still had a merry laugh on their face! Yet all these hundred people are deader than dead!
While it is only a hundred of people who died, from this day on, the Ravenous Tigers will cease to exist!
These people are either Ravenous Tigers' most vile personnels or a high ranking member of their group. Without them, Ravenous Tigers would no longer have the foundation to act so arrogantly and Li Zun had been very careful only to select those who are clearly proven to be vile and horrendous, but sadly almost all of them are men who Li Zun would have love to end..
Li Zun then turned away, his fingers stroked upwards and slashed into the celling of the castle, causing a huge hole to form on the celling.
He then leapt up into the sky, readying his next move..
~~~
The castle of the Ravenous Tigers went into a huge uproar, there was a big commotion everywhere one went.
Wyndinn sneakily moved from wall to wall, hidden within the shadows of the wall or crowds. He snooped in from time to time into the crowd of bandits and overhead their commotion.
While all of them are in a state of total confusion, he had perceived one important information from all the commotions.
Dead!
All dead!
All of the known captains and leaders of Ravenous Tigers laid on the ground, their heads removed from their bodies.
Wyndinn shuddered uncontrollably, he could not even imagine just what kind of creature could have possibly assassinated all of Ravenous Tigers strong warriors within the crowd of bandits all at the same time!

He wouldn't even want to imagine if that creature had mistaken him to be a part of their group as cold sweat involuntarily dripped from his face.
The normal bandits within the Ravenous Tigers are all not much different from him either, they were all madly arguing on what they should do now. Such an unprecedented calamity had never befallen them before.
Some of them had even suspected that their boss..is now dead too.
It did not take them too long to find out though, as sounds of Mad Tiger’s women shrieking reverberated across the halls of the castle.
The men who heard that immediately scurried into Mad Tiger’s room, where they found the celling with a huge hole and a ragged Mad Tiger lying on the ground.
Although they could see that his head was still attached to his neck, they all know that their boss is no longer alive..
None of them could believe their eyes, some of them are shouting that it's an imposter and that their real boss is somewhere in the sky battling against the intruder.
If it was their captains, perhaps they could somehow swallow their deaths.
But their boss? Who was their boss in the first place?
Otherworldly 3rd Realm Warrior Mad Tiger!
The concept of a 3rd realm warrior is completely different to that of the 2nd realm in the minds of the people of Floating Cloud Continent. If breaking through the 2nd realm from the 1st realm is hard enough, then breaking through the 3rd realm is immeasurably hard!
A single 3rd realm warrior is equivalent to a thousand soldiers! That is why, those who have reached the 3rd realm like Mad Tiger had another title, Kings!
Those who have reached the 3rd realm wouldn't have been bothered by a King of an ordinary Kingdom, they alone are worthy enough to be Kings as a single one of them alone is as strong as a troop of a thousand soldiers. Not to mention that they can infiltrate into the Kingdom and rush in to kill the King before having to confront the kingdom's army itself, that is why the concept of a 3rd realm warrior is as if the lofty sky towards them, unreachable and untouchable..
~~~
Wyndinn was hurrying his speed in the hallways of the castle taking advantage of the confusion when a hand suddenly grabbed his shoulder from an intersection.
“ Wyndinn? “ A rough voice asked him behind his back.
Wyndinn acted reflexively, he took out his razor blades and was about to slash at the source of the voice when the voice spoke again hurriedly.
“ Stop, stop! It's me, Harrander remember? “ said ‘ Harrander’ as he hastily ripped off his mask, revealing a middle-aged man with rough features.
Wyndinn stopped his blade in the air, his eyes looked into Harrander’s eyes for a moment before he broke out into a smile, relaxing his arms. “ Is that really you Harrander? To think that you are the 2nd captain Blaster all along! “
Out of all the captains, Wyndinn had the least interaction with the 2nd captain Blaster because he is often out to safeguard their most dangerous missions, but he had heard that the 2nd captain Blaster dislikes to be disturbed so he had mostly stayed within his own tent.
In spite of that, he heard that the 2nd captain is a 6th rank warrior and had once saved Mad Tiger’s life, so Mad Tiger trusted him dearly. Now that it is revealed that Blaster was in fact Harrander, a warrior of Skeddenberg Kingdom, Wyndinn is naturally delighted.
Harrander also smiled in return. “ Whooh, however you lil twerp, you almost sliced me into two you bastard! “ Harrander slapped Wyndinn’s back hardly while laughing gleefully.
Wyndinn followed him along for a laugh, his cold demeanor is now gone nowhere to be seen.
It was then..
*Rumble* *Rumble*
A massive rumbling shook the ground.
The both of them stopped their laughs and turned into each other before the two of them both looked out into the windows outside, only to have their eyes popping out, mouths agape at the scene before them..
~~~
Li Zun was high up in the air, he was performing an incantation that he had learned on the way towards here. It was a skill that Li Zun deemed to be very important.
Soon, his incantation ended, divine energy flowed out of his fingertips in a mysterious manner swaying towards the horizon.
Moments later, a huge rumbling shook the ground which alerted all the bandits in the mountain.
All of them are currently annoyed and enraged at the sudden happenings so they reacted quickly, reaching out into the window or the door to take a look at the source of the rumble which had further annoyed them, but they stopped feeling annoyed when they saw what was brewing up in the distance.
These bandits saw, in the distance, a massive storm of dust sprang up and towering, huge shadows are visible behind the storm of dust.
Their faces instantly turned pale in fright. They stopped their bickering, and for a moment, all of the mountain vicinity went as silent as a grave.
Yes, it was another of the same tactic from Li Zun. Another Magical Beast wave, albeit this time, it was just an illusion.
Old it might be but who says something old isn't effective?

Jack of All Trades, Master of All
Jack was reincarnated, again. This time, the omnipotent sphere had finally revealed to him that this new world was, in fact, the real one, and his soul had just returned to his body after two years of coma. During that span, the Earth or the magical world No.146, where he was The Grand Sage, was just a simulation experience. Jack inherited the System of Knowledge from his former self in the previous world. But gradually, he realized there were other Returners, holding other powerful Systems that they themself were also granted. The reason? The Omnipotent Sphere refused to give an answer. With the ever-burning desire to find his former friends and companions at World No.146 after their souls too were returned to this world, Jack began his journey. Ahead of him, five hundred years old as he technically was, there might be some surprises he still wasn’t prepared for. This is an original translated work. I’ve always wanted to challenge my writing skill and post on Royalroad a few times, but, as it turned out, I realized my own English capability still limited me. Therefore, I am currently working with a team of three, hence the name Triopals, consisting of me, the author, a translator, and an investor who really put his faith in this project. My translator and I will work together to deliver four chapters each week. Depending on the translating, editing, re-reading, checking, and re-reading-again process, the chapters will be uploaded each day or all at once. Careful as we may be, there can still be some errors at our best, so we welcome grammatical corrections, etc. We are very appreciative of your support.
