If it weren't for the fact that Brother Blood Rider usually had some dealings with them, and the hiring fee was twice the usual, they wouldn't have come at all.

"Let's do it!" Brother Blood Rider gritted his teeth and still decided to make a move.

His side was already exposed. If they didn't act now, the Defense Corps of Chasing Light City would undoubtedly be on guard next time. It would be tough to assassinate a commander again.

"Alright! With your word, Brother Blood Rider, we'll take action!" The Sub-demon Race's Stone Axe laughed as he launched his martial arts, his speed skyrocketing, charging straight towards the Defense Corps of Chasing Light City two kilometers away.

And beside Brother Blood Rider, Iron Claw also took a step forward, shooting off like a cannonball.

As the speed of the two increased dramatically, on the other side, Yino and the others preparing to face them had their expressions slightly change.

"Commander! Something's wrong! These two red dots are approaching the speed of sound. They are likely top-tier Bone Forging Realm experts!" The Half-Scale Race's Middle Tier Bone Forging Realm man looked at the life detector, somewhat panicking.

Although speed doesn't entirely represent strength, it does reflect part of it.

Reaching near sonic speed usually requires an Extreme Bone Forging Realm high-tier martial artist to train a super-tier step technique to the Second Layer Perfection, which can barely achieve this speed.

The other way is to train the super-tier step technique to Third Layer Perfection, which only top-tier Bone Forging Realm experts using the step technique can reach.

Now, with the sudden speed increase, if they really wanted to assassinate, they could approach slowly; there was no need to expose so early. The fact that they dared to reveal themselves meant they were quite confident in their strength, not even caring about the twenty Bone Forging Realm experts on their side.

That leaves only one possibility.

Top-tier Bone Forging Realm experts!

Only top-tier Bone Forging Realm experts would not care about their twenty Bone Forging Realm experts, coming and going with ease.

"I'm not good at speed, so running is out of the question." Yino sighed and said, "They must be targeting me; you all should retreat."

For two top-tier Bone Forging Realm experts to be deployed, if it were merely to kill ordinary Bone Forging Realm experts, it wouldn't be necessary.

Top-tier Bone Forging Realm experts aren't common; even within the powerful races in the city, there's usually only one, and within the whole Chasing Light City, there are less than thirty, about the same for Star Tower City.

The only reason to send two top-tier Bone Forging experts deep into enemy territory at such a great risk would be to kill someone like her, an Extreme Bone Forging Realm high-tier martial artist. Once discovered, the City Lord would definitely order the Deputy City Lord to act, making escape very difficult.

In light of this, everyone in the Defense Corps could only grit their teeth and disperse to flee.

With one top-tier Bone Forging Realm expert, their Seventeenth Corps might still have a chance, but against two top-tier Bone Forging Realm experts, plus more than forty Bone Forging Realm warriors, they wouldn't even have the chance to escape.

"Thinking of leaving? Not that easy!" Stone Axe said as he looked at the red dots suddenly dispersing on the life detector, quickening his pace.

For a mercenary corps that lived in the wild year-round, speed was life. Whether chasing or escaping, it was crucial, which was why he and Iron Claw had survived so long.

With their speed at Third Layer Perfection of the super-tier step technique, they had escaped many times from vice city lord level experts; now chasing twenty Bone Forging Realm warriors was a small matter.

However, when Stone Axe and Iron Claw were less than five hundred meters away from the Seventeenth Corps, a flying transport vehicle stopped in the center between the two sides.

"Hahaha! I told you renting a flying transport vehicle was the right move; now we're the first to arrive!" Fang Zhen opened the door, looking at the two groups below the valley and couldn't help but laugh.

"So, are they fighting down there?" Chen Ya stretched lazily, asking out of boredom.

"It seems they're about to fight." The Outer Gunman glanced at the situation below and explained, "But there don't seem to be many on the other side, just two charging at the front. Judging by their qi and blood, they're probably Extreme Bone Forging Realm high-tier."

"Two Bone Forging Realm minions?" Chen Ya lacked interest, "Not interesting. Who's going?"

"Then Fang Zhen and I will go," Li Ranxing said with some anticipation as he leaped into the air.

Fang Zhen didn't object, silently jumping off the flying transport vehicle.

Earlier, Chen Ya had fought the leader at Smiling Skull's base alone, thoroughly enjoying the battle, though it was one-sided, they had no chance to fight back, but the leader at Smiling Skull's base was a Blood Coagulation Realm expert; now, two Bone Forging Realm fighters naturally didn't pique her interest.

With Fang Zhen and Li Ranxing jumping off the flying transport vehicle, everyone present, including Yino preparing for a deadly battle, was stunned.

Because at the moment Fang Zhen and Li Ranxing landed, the previously aggressive Stone Axe and Iron Claw turned to run without hesitation, like mice that had seen a cat, even faster than they came.

"What's going on with these two leaders?" Fang Zhen, watching the two speeding individuals whose speed was now comparable to the speed of sound, couldn't believe it.

He had been keen to try out the Golden Roar he deduced from the base leader; yet these two Bone Forging Realm leaders didn't even give him a chance.

Is the Blood Coagulation Realm leader's martial arts sequence really that powerful?

Not only Yino and others were dumbfounded, but even Brother Blood Rider, running from behind, was perplexed.

"What are you two doing?" Brother Blood Rider asked through his smart watch, full of confusion, "The Defense Corps' commander isn't dead yet!"

"We're not fighting, can't win," Stone Axe refused directly, with a hint of anger in his voice.

"Can't win? What do you mean? You're mercenaries, paid for the job! Aren't you afraid I'll report your contract breach to the Mercenary Alliance?" Brother Blood Rider retorted angrily.

He had paid them double, and now they were backing out at the last moment; was this a joke?

"You know nothing!" Stone Axe retorted angrily, "Before we made the contract, you didn't mention those grey-cloaked people. If I'd known, I'd have ignored you. Whoever wants to fight, go ahead!"

"Grey-cloaked people?" Brother Blood Rider couldn't help but look at the two human race men in silver-grey clothes in the distance, full of curiosity.

These two men, judging by their qi and blood, were clearly just Extreme High Tier Martial Artists, not even of the Bone Forging Realm, and should be easily killed by top-tier Bone Forging Realm experts. Yet, they canceled the contract just because of them. How could he believe that?

"Brother Blood Rider, you may not know since you're from Star Tower City, but in the Wraith Mountain Range, those grey-cloaked people are well-known. Even Smiling Skull suffered losses to them. Now, traveling merchants call them 'South Skull, North Huiyi.' We really can't fulfill this contract, you'd better hire someone else!" Iron Claw explained, then cut off the communication and exerted all his power to escape the area.
