"Who!"
Everyone was shocked and turned around instantly, with a look of caution on their faces.
But when they saw Acker, the wariness on their faces was gradually replaced by excitement and greed.
"He... seems to be that Acker?"
"That's right, nine out of ten similarities to the description above the bounty, it must be him, it must be him!"
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, I was worried that I couldn't find this boy, but I didn't expect him to come to my door by himself!"
"He's not a fool, is he? How dare he reveal his identity?"
"..."
While he was talking, everyone was slowly approaching Acker.
"Bad guy!"
On Acker's back, Little Fool spoke bitterly.
"The Young Master doesn't know you, why do you want to kill the Young Master!"
"Just because he killed his father!"
In the crowd.
The person with the highest cultivation level had a righteous and solemn look on his face.
"If we kill him, we will remove a scourge from the world!"
"You can get rid of this scourge and earn spiritual crystals at the same time. Why not?"
"Exactly! In my opinion, after we have helped the Griffin Family so much, two thousand Primordial Crystals are still too little!"
"..."
Everyone said something to each other, which made Little Fool burst into tears.
"You..."
"Little Fool."
Acker had no expression on his face and slowly raised his sword.
"No need to talk nonsense to them. In fact, it doesn't matter whether I killed my father or not! What matters is that my life is now worth two thousand Primordial Crystals!"
"Remember!"
"Trying to reason with unreasonable people is the stupidest thing in the world!"
"Young Master..."
Little Fool wiped away her tears.
"What should I do then?"
"It's easy!"
Acker glanced at everyone and softly uttered one word.
"Kill!"
Whoosh!
The words just fell.
A foot long, the fierce sword energy suddenly flew out, split into two on the way, and fell into the crowd!
His cultivation had reached the Fourth-level Realm of Opening Meridians.
He had successfully condensed the second Great Extremity Sword Qi!
"Ah!"
"Help..."
The sword energy was so fast that even the cultivators in the Realm of Acupoint Connection couldn't avoid it, let alone them?
Screams came one after another.
In just the blink of an eye, several people fell to the ground screaming!
"Go on!"
The man with the highest cultivation level felt his heart sink, and he shouted loudly, "This kid is not simple! Come on together! If anyone dares not to contribute, don't even think about a single Primordial Crystal..."
Whoosh!
The words were not finished yet.
The sword light flashed again!
"... to get."
His neck felt cold, and he relied on his remaining instinct to say the last two words. The world spun for a while, his vision went dark, and he no longer had any consciousness!
Until now.
Everyone finally realized how terrifying Acker was!
However...it was too late!
Accompanied by screams and wails, in just a moment, the place turned into an Asura field. The slightly black soil was mixed with a large amount of blood, giving off a pungent smell that was nauseating.
From beginning to end.
This battle was one-sided.
The prey became the hunter.
But the hunters... turned into a defenseless lamb!
On the back.
Little Fool's body trembled slightly.
Part of her soul power was replenished, and she naturally recovered a lot of the emotions that a normal person should have. Moreover, she had been living in a hazy state for the past ten years, and her mind was blank. When she suddenly saw this bloody scene, she was naturally at a loss.
"Little Fool, are you afraid?"
"A little."
"It's okay, just get used to it."
"Okay!"
Since he decided to teach Little Fool to practice, Acker naturally hardened his heart and instilled some principles in the practice world into her.
The law of the jungle.
The fittest survive.
This was particularly obvious and cruel in the practice world. If he had sufficient strength before, how could Auron be surrounded and killed by his tribe, and how could he be charged with patricide and sent outside the city, almost dying?
Everything.
Just because he was not strong enough.
Since he was not strong.
Then became stronger!
After quickly cleaning up the battlefield, he didn't stop too much and left again.
…
A blink of an eye.
More than half a month had passed.
During this time, Acker often showed up and used his body as bait to attract people to attack him.
As for the result, it was naturally self-evident.
The Realm of Connecting Acupoints was already the highest one among wandering cultivators who came here.
As for the Realm of Gathering Primordial Energy, he could barely be considered a strong person in the Quim Dynasty. He either occupied a place by himself and was at ease, or became a guest of each family. If there was nothing particularly urgent, why would anyone take the risk and come to this Savage Wilderness?
After some time.
Everyone was almost frightened by his killing, and no one dared to mention the bounty.
On a small hill.
Several people gathered here and talked non-stop.
"Have you heard? Yesterday, someone was determined to surround and kill Acker, but he was killed by Acker instead!"
"Of course, I know. There is someone there who I also know. He is at the Ninth-level Realm of Meridian Opening. I didn't expect that he was no match for him!"
"This Acker..."
One person's face was full of fear.
"How strong is it?"
"Who knows, anyway, those masters in the Realm of Connecting Acupoints now don't dare to attack him easily. With just a few of us, let's give up this idea. The Primordial Crystal is very good, but you have to live to take it!"
"Hmph, the stupid Griffin Family offered a bounty, but they didn't mention Acker's strength. They are obviously trying to trick us!"
"Bah, I just said it's not that easy!"
"Quick!"
Suddenly.
A cultivator hurried over from the bottom of the hillside with a look of horror on his face.
"I just... seemed to see that Acker coming towards our direction!"
"What!"
"Why is this God of Death here?"
"Quick, go!"
No one dared to stay any longer. In the blink of an eye, they fled everywhere without a trace!
After a while.
Acker's figure appeared on this hill.
"Young Master."
Little Fool beside him looked around.
"It seems they ran away again."
"Yes."
Acker had a sarcastic look on his face.
"Everyone is afraid of death, and they are no exception."
After being hunted again yesterday.
He had never met a wandering cultivator again. Even if he accidentally saw him from a distance, the other person would run as far as he could as if he had seen a ghost, not daring to approach him at all.
"Young Master, are we still looking for them?"
"No!"
Acker took a deep breath.
"The time is running out!"
Now that everyone was afraid of him like a tiger, there was no point in chasing down those wandering cultivators. Moreover, there were still a few days left before the Martial Arts Academy qualification competition, and he also needed to convert all the resources gained during this period into cultivation!
Then...settled the accounts with the Griffin Family!
"Young Master."
Little Fool's eyes were a little dim.
"Are we going to avenge for Uncle?"
Although Auron didn't treat her as his own son like Acker, he was quite good to her. She was very sad about Auron's death.
"Right!"
Acker’s eyes were full of hatred.
"Blood debts must be paid with blood, of course!"
Now, if there were others here, they would definitely be able to detect the deep resentment in Acker's eyes.
…
Quickly.
Various news about the Savage Wilderness also reached the Griffin Family.
"Father!"
The Griffin Family was at home.
Henry looked at Guido who was sitting at the top with a worried look on his face.
"What should we do now? These wandering cultivators are of no use at all! Now other families in the city are laughing at us, and rumors are gradually emerging, saying..."
"Say what!"
Guido’s face was as dark.
"Say... Auron was harmed by us, Acker is just a scapegoat!"
"Let them say so!"
Guido sneered.
"It's nothing more than the tricks of those families! After Peso comes out of seclusion and gets the qualification to go to the Martial Arts Academy, they will shut up obediently! Huh, it won't matter what the truth is by then! My Griffin family, will also completely jump out of Skyforce City and become a wealthy family that they cannot reach!"
"What you said makes sense, but Acker..."
Henry was about to speak but stopped.
"Whenever he's around, he's always a kind of scourge!"
"Acker must be killed!"
Guido narrowed his eyes.
"I thought I paid enough attention to him, but I still underestimated him! Take two people with you, go to the warehouse to get five thousand Primordial Crystals, and go to the Savage Wilderness. Under the heavy bounty, there will be a brave man, so you can bribe a few wandering cultivators in this Realm of Acupoint Connection and kill him with all their strength!"
"This..."
"Since we underestimated him before, we can't take it lightly this time!"
"Yes!"
…
Acker naturally didn't know how much Guido had spent to deal with him.
Now in a hidden cave.
He crossed his legs and closed his eyes, surrounded by Primordial Crystals, trying his best to improve his cultivation.
Since this time.
Naturally, his gains were not small.
There were more than a thousand Primordial Crystals, four ordinary spiritual herbs, more than ten bottles of Spirit-gathering Pills, more than a hundred First Tier Beast Cores, and more than twenty Second Tier Beast Cores.
Also, the most precious thing was the two rare spiritual herbs that Little Fool helped him find.
A bright Vermilion Fruit.
A spiritual herb that Acker couldn't even name.
No worse than that Mysterious Ginseng!
Suddenly.
Acker's aura fluctuated for a moment, but he broke into the Sixth-level Realm of Meridian Opening!
And at this time.
There were not many resources left from those wandering cultivators.
Same as before.
Without any hesitation, he grabbed the Vermilion Fruit and the spiritual herb and stuffed them directly into his mouth.
In an instant.
A large amount of Spiritual Qi poured into the meridians again, and the originally weak Spiritual Power was replenished, gaining momentum and continuing to spread toward the remaining branches.
…
At the same time.
In the Savage Wilderness, the Griffin Family's bounty leaked out again.
This time, the intention was not to capture Acker but to offer a bounty for his location. It didn’t have to be too specific, just a general range, and one could get a hundred Primordial Crystals!
This time, the wandering cultivators were ready to move again.
Although a hundred spiritual crystals were far less than two thousand, there was no need to take any risks at all. Just like the ones picked up for free, some casual wandering cultivators who were lucky enough to see Acker's traces naturally couldn't wait to come over to receive the bounty.
Quickly.
After paying hundreds of spiritual crystals.
Guido already knew Acker's specific location.
Immediately afterwards.
He led the three wandering cultivators who had secretly searched for him, as well as two elders of the family, and surrounded Acker's position with murderous intent!
…
Inside the cave.
Acker's aura fluctuated, but he was at the critical moment of breaking through.
Aside.
Little Fool had eaten and drank enough and did not bother Acker. She held her little head with both hands and stared at Acker with a pair of big eyes full of nostalgia.
Suddenly!
There was a faint sound of discussion.
"Is this here? Don't let those people fool you!"
"Hmph, no one in Skyforce City has ever dared to lie to my Griffin Family!"
"Okay, okay, just search carefully!"
"Look! There is a cave on the cliff, it seems to be newly opened!"
"..."
Inside the cave.
Whoosh! Acker opened his eyes.
