The outer seas of the Baihe Continent.
A massive vessel cleaved through the wind and waves, sailing toward the beach at breakneck speed.
Named the *Avenger*, this great ship had been funded through contributions from hundreds of millions of class users. Every class user aboard was over Level 100—mercenaries, hitmen, and assassins hired by others to seek vengeance against Yu Xian.
"A hundred years ago, Yu Xian used an event to slaughter the class users across the entire Baihe Continent and took over all its cities at top speed, making it impossible for any other continent to teleport here."
"Worse still, he went so far as to deploy a massive number of summoned beasts to blockade the novice villages, leaving newcomers who spawned on the Baihe Continent to either starve to death in the novice villages or be killed by his summoned beasts."
"The entire Baihe Continent became his personal playground. After so many years, what level do you think he's reached?"
Aboard the *Avenger*, a one-eyed class user gazed at the distant beach and spoke slowly to the class users around him, his gaze sweeping over the crowd as he waited for their responses.
"Hmph, if not for that dog Chi Feihong, what would a nobody like Yu Xian even amount to?" a muscular old man snarled murderously.
Back then, strong fighters had indeed crossed the sea to investigate the Baihe Continent.
Yet every last one of those experts had been slain by Chi Feihong, not a single one escaping the Baihe Continent alive.
Though some of the slain experts were originally ordinary people, others were Transcendents who possessed extraordinary powers of their own. These Transcendents found ways to re-enter the Zhen Realm and expose what had happened on the Baihe Continent.
In fact, Yu Xian had already become a universally despised pariah back then, his reputation thoroughly ruined.
However, because the pairing of Yu Xian and Chi Feihong was overwhelmingly powerful, everyone who hated Yu Xian only talked big; not a single class user actually ventured to the Baihe Continent to make trouble for him.
Now, however, the situation was different.
Among the billions of class users Yu Xian had slaughtered, there were naturally many Transcendents. They had re-entered the Zhen Realm onto other continents and even formed an alliance.
The Fish-Slaying Alliance!
An alliance numbering in the hundreds of millions, existing solely to kill Yu Xian.
In the past, although the alliance had vast numbers, their levels were relatively low, so they couldn't accomplish anything. But after accumulating strength over hundreds of years, the alliance had steadily grown in power, amassing immense funds and resources.
It was this very alliance that financed the construction of the *Avenger* and recruited top experts at great expense, swearing to slay Yu Xian and avenge their humiliation.
As the *Avenger* drew closer to the beach, the Wave-Cleaving Saber at its bow gleamed with a chilling light. In an instant, the captain activated a skill, and the Wave-Cleaving Saber produced a colossal saber aura that cleaved through waves and reefs, forcing a landing onto the beach before finally coming to a halt on the sands.
"Everyone! Yu Xian's strength is unfathomable, and he has Chi Feihong at max level by his side! We must unite if we want any chance of fighting them—"
Just then, Xia Donghai stepped out of the captain's quarters, shouting at the top of his lungs to all the class users emerging from the cabins.
He was the third-in-command of the Fish-Slaying Alliance and the person in charge of this operation. Although some things had been emphasized repeatedly before departure, he was prepared to tirelessly reiterate them.
Having accepted the payment, the surrounding class users naturally showed him due respect and gathered toward Xia Donghai.
Before Xia Donghai could finish speaking, he cut off abruptly. His eyes stared in shock toward the beach. The others followed his gaze and looked over, only to be struck dumb.
One Chi Feihong, two Chi Feihongs, three Chi Feihongs, four Chi Feihongs...
A dense swarm of Chi Feihongs flew in from afar in an instant, dropping down from high above onto the beach. Everyone present froze in shock.
In truth, the class users aboard the *Avenger* were psychologically prepared to face Chi Feihong, and had even devised tactics tailored specifically against him.
The problem was that these tactics were designed for a single Chi Feihong. But what were they looking at now? A whole horde of Chi Feihongs!
Since when was Chi Feihong mass-produced?
Xia Donghai snapped back to his senses and hurriedly shouted, "Don't panic, everyone! This is definitely an illusion trick by that bastard Yu Xian! We must not let our morale waver—"
Once again, he failed to finish his sentence.
The moment the word "morale" left his mouth, every single Chi Feihong leaped onto the *Avenger* in unison and launched a crisp, ruthless assault. Some class users had their heads blown apart by a single punch in an instant, while others managed to trade a few blows with a Chi Feihong before dying.
Xia Donghai was only Level 90. Facing an attack from Chi Feihong, he didn't even get the chance to dodge; his head was pulverized by a punch in an instant, and his body collapsed heavily to the deck.
*No good, I can't stay here!*
Among the many class users, Xiao Zhouxuan realized the situation was hopeless and immediately decided to withdraw.
He was the biggest-name class user recruited by the Fish-Slaying Alliance, boasting a level as high as Level 238. According to the original plan, the other class users were to pin down Chi Feihong, leaving him to deliver the fatal blow.
Now, however, the other class users were being utterly slaughtered by the Chi Feihongs. Taking on one Chi Feihong shouldn't have been much of an issue for him, but fighting a crowd of them? He would die without a doubt.
In an instant, he fused into the steel, passing through the metal to reach the ground before melting into the earth to travel inland.
Although he couldn't beat a horde of Chi Feihongs, he felt he might be able to assassinate Yu Xian. After all, his class was [Great Emperor of Myriad Escapes Returning to the Origin]. Once he fused with surrounding matter, no one could detect his presence or sense his aura.
As long as he got close to Yu Xian, a mere summoner would be dead for sure.
In his escape technique form, his speed was extraordinarily fast, crossing hundreds of thousands of kilometers in just a few seconds. Had he not agreed to depart with the revenge fleet, he possessed the ability to cross the ocean rapidly on his own and reach the Baihe Continent.
It was simply that in the past there was no benefit in it, so there was no need to provoke Yu Xian.
Now, whoever could kill Yu Xian would receive an astronomical bounty from the Fish-Slaying Alliance—not just Fortune Gold Coins, but all kinds of enhancement stones and even numerous rare resources.
Even he was deeply tempted by these resources, so... Yu Xian had to die.
Half an hour later, Xiao Zhouxuan stopped not far from the Astral Black Tortoise, his sharp gaze already spotting Yu Xian lying asleep on a chair.
"Safety first."
Xiao Zhouxuan took out a spyglass and looked toward Yu Xian once more.
Since Chi Feihong had so many clones, he didn't believe Yu Xian wouldn't have any, so he had to verify that this was indeed Yu Xian first.
This spyglass could see through a target's attribute information and even pierce through the hidden traits of summoned beasts; if the target was a clone, it could reveal clone traits as well.
Xiao Zhouxuan was now using this special piece of equipment to confirm that Yu Xian was the true body, not a clone.
After all, he had only one chance to strike. If he attacked something other than Yu Xian's true body, once Yu Xian was on guard, assassinating him would become exceedingly difficult.
However, the moment he saw Yu Xian's attributes, he froze in utter disbelief, cold sweat breaking out across his forehead.
