Chapter 574: I Will Spare Your Life

His doubt was made clear once Qin Feng expanded his consciousness .

He could “see” what had caused the commotion .

There were a total of twelve aptitude users outside . All of them are gunners .

The leader was an F-tier while the others were G-tier . They were all riding on a ferocious beast found only in Xue Yuan—Snow Bear .

The beast resembled the wolf Qin Feng had encountered in Chengbei before .

The giant Snow Bear was three-meter tall when standing straight . They still measured about one and a half meters even when they were crawling on four feet .

The bear had probably either been domesticated or contracted . They leaned down obediently with a heavy saddle placed on their backs .

The aptitude users must have ridden on these bears to move around the snowy forest . This might be more convenient and faster than a normal car . But it was still incomparable to a hovercraft .

It was possibly the most common transportation in this state .

This group had a wind mask on and uniformly wore a custom-made white battle suit . They appeared to be well-trained armed troops .

All the villagers went into hiding as soon as the troop arrived .

“Eh?” Qin Feng scanned them with his consciousness and finally “saw” the communicator exposed on one of the soldier’s cuffs .

“People from the Dark Coalition!”

The communicator of the Dark Coalition was easily distinguishable from that of the Human Alliance .

No wonder the villagers hid in panic .

Qin Feng, in contrast to those villagers, was happy with their arrivals . He finally picked on the trail of the Dark Coalition after so many days .

These low-tier aptitude users were unaware of Qin Feng’s powerful consciousness and walked brazenly into his vision .

“Crap, it’s the War Bear!”

“Hei Xiong* is here . Hide, quickly!”

“Dang it! Why are they here again so soon? I thought they had just come five days ago?”

“To the cellar, quick!” The villagers bolted .

Even though there were F-tier or G-tier aptitude users in this village, none of them would stand up and fight for the people . It was ridiculous to Qin Feng how a village of three thousand people had submitted to fear of a mere twelve men .

It was pathetic . Qin Feng had no sympathy for those who refused to fight for themselves .

The leading man opened up his wind mask . He laughed hideously as he saw that the villagers were running and hiding .

“Where are you guys running to? Hand over ten women now and I will leave in peace . Besides, surrender any valuables you have and don’t try to hide it . You will be doomed if I am to find it out myself . ”

Qin Feng could feel the unrest among the villagers . Those families with female members were especially terrified .

“Haha! How rude for leaving me out here in the cold . If nobody comes out, I will ask my hungry bear here to go in and drag you all out one by one instead!”

Hei Xiong tapped the Snow Bear beside him . The Snow Bear roared in response, displaying the munched flesh still remaining in its mouth .

It could be any type of meat . But in the eyes of the freaked out villagers, those were most probably human fleshes .

Amid the silence, a person finally picked up enough courage and walked out . The person was a G8-tier aptitude user .

“Master Hei Xiong, please at least give us some time to fulfill your demand . Why don’t you go to Li Qi’s shop and rest while we are preparing?”

“Ah! Zhang Chuan! It’s you . You are a smart guy . Why don’t you come and work for me? I guarantee it will be ten times better than staying in this sh*thole!” Hei Xiong peeked at the G8-tier aptitude user .

The aptitude user called Zhang Chuan was terrified and replied timidly, “This lifestyle suits me more . I have little ambition and am content as long as I have enough to feed myself . This way, Master Hei Xiong . ”

“Haha . Indeed, what else could you dream for in this slum? What a pity that you are always the one getting scolded and mocked at!”

Zhang Chuan did not say anything but grimaced . ‘Aren’t you the main source of my misery?’

Led by Zhang Chuan, they walked down the main road and soon arrived at the only hostel in town . This was where Qin Feng lived .

Li Qi was the owner of this hostel but unfortunately for him, he would be unable to welcome his customers today .

As they approached the hostel, an urgent chirping sound was suddenly heard from Hei Xiong’s waist .

Hei Xiong and the others were baffled . They had never heard and did not expect the little thing to ever shrill so desperately .

The little creature hanging on Hei Xiong’s waist was a unique beast . It was difficult to catch and was known as Silverthread Mouse . The small beast was completely white with a silver line running down its spine .

This mouse was extremely weak but had been surviving the unforgiving frost plain for decades . They were extremely sensitive to powerful beasts and would shrill when they sense one nearby, including the remains of a dead beast .

Hence, this mouse could be used to detect danger in the wild or search for valuable beast materials in a settlement .

Hei Xiong was excited by the mouse’s edginess . “Well, well, well! It seems there’s some good stuff in this place after all!” Hei Xiong stepped into the hostel as he spoke and saw Qin Feng and Bai Li in there .

“Chirp! Chirp! Chirp!” The Silverthread Mouse shrilled even louder . The little mate was terrified .

Bai Li was intrigued and looked at the mouse curiously . The mouse inside the cage could not bear the look and dropped dead instantly .

It had been frightened to death .

The Silverthread Mouse was hardly a G-tier beast . It had little power but was extremely sensitive to it . The mental shock it suffered locking sights with a C6-tier beast emperor was understandable .

But Hei Xiong paid little attention to the miserable fate of his little pet . He, too, could barely move when he saw Bai Li .

Bai Li did not belong to this dump .

She had long silver hair that ran down to her shoulder, with a small red hat lying tidily on top of it . There was a white scarf wrapped around a neck . She was wearing a trendy coat of unknown materials . Her hands and feet were covered with leather gloves and boots, respectively . Coupled that with her beautiful face, it made her look like a painted figure rather than a real person .

Such graceful appearance and demeanor were hard to resist, especially to a male .

“Hmph!” Qin Feng snorted and stood in front of Bai Li . This was clearly to obstruct Hei Xiong’s line of sight .

Hei Xiong stared at Qin Feng angrily for his provocative action . He measured Qin Feng’s attire and recalled the mouse’s desperate shrill from earlier . “Yo, a visitor from outside?”

“None of your business,’ Qin Feng answered coldly .

Hei Xiong was even more infuriated .

“Boy, know your place . Surrender your valuables now and I will spare your pitiful life . You have your beautiful girlfriend over there to thank for my generosity . ”
