168 Appearance of the Fallen
Not long after, everyone entered the passageway. The fluorescent stones on the stone walls could illuminate the passageway. Everyone could see many messy footprints inside, including some wet blood.
Everything here hinted that there should have been a pursuit here not long ago. If their guess was right, the person being chased was probably the companion of the people outside.
This passageway was very short. It did not take long for everyone to reach the end.
After exiting the cave, everyone saw a huge cave that was not inferior to the previous cave. This cave was even wider.
When Ye Fan entered, the battle in front of him was just about to end.
In the middle of the cave, an ugly multi-eyed demon bit a man’s head with its bloody mouth and suddenly swung its neck. Then, a crisp tearing sound was heard.
The person who was bitten was decapitated. Warm blood splattered everywhere, and there was a large pool of blood on the ground.
“Someone came again?” A hoarse and withered voice sounded.
Ye Fan heard the sound and looked over. Ten meters away from the multi-eyed demon, there were still a few people standing there.
There was a tall one, about two meters tall, hiding in a wide black cloak, not revealing his appearance at all.
Even so, he exuded a different sense of oppression.
Ye Fan was curious. Beast Tamers with weak bodies rarely gave off such a feeling.
The other two people were an old man and a middle-aged man. The old man’s thin face was covered in wrinkles, and his muddy eyes were shining. As for the middle-aged man, he looked a little fat. He was smiling, but there was a hint of coldness in his smile.
Such a cold gaze was extremely similar to a snake’s cold eyes. Those who were targeted would involuntarily feel cold. The middle-aged man had said that just now.
“This cave should be very hidden. Why are there people coming one after another?”
The middle-aged man’s tone was frivolous as he sized up the people around Ye Fan.
Wang Jun frowned, his face filled with vigilance.
“Who are you?”
The three people in front of him were unknown, but they gave off a very bad feeling.
“You’re about to die. It’s useless to know so much.” The middle-aged man smiled, but his words made Wang Jun and the others’ faces darken.
But Ye Fan’s gaze was calm. His expression was indifferent as he looked at the three of them in deep thought.
Not to mention this cloaked man, he kept feeling that there was a familiar aura on this middle-aged man and the old man.
At this moment, Anissa suddenly approached Ye Fan.
“Those two have the scent of the Fallen.”
Ye Fan paused, before coming to a realization, he finally understood where this familiar feeling came from.
He then glanced at the Multi-eyed Demon, whose body also emitted a very faint evil aura.
Ye Fan smiled: “There are actually Fallens hidden in such a place. You are probably the Hand of the Abyss, right?”
Ye Fan’s sudden words stunned the members of the Rock Hunter Group.
After everyone reacted, their expressions changed as they looked at the middle-aged man and the thin old man in shock. They did not expect the infamous disciples of the Hand of the Abyss to be hidden here! This news was really incredible!
Wang Jun and the others immediately acted as if they were facing a great enemy and looked around nervously.
The Fallen liked to cause terrorist events. The Hand of the Abyss was the most capable among them. They especially liked to plan a terrorist event in a hidden place. Almost every time they attacked, they could cause a large number of deaths, which was hated by countless Beast Tamers.
The current situation was very in line with this situation. The two believers hiding in this cave were probably plotting something.
Thinking of this, Wang Jun and the others complained in their hearts. They originally wanted to accept a mission with low risk, but they happened to encounter such an unlucky thing.
The other party was the Hand of the Abyss!! They were probably all going to die here. They were really unlucky.
At this moment, they felt bitter. The middle-aged man and the old man both looked at Ye Fan. They didn’t care about Ye Fan at first, because he looked very young. They felt that he was just a new Beast Tamer and was very unnoticeable in the Rock Hunter Group.
But just now, Ye Fan exposed their true identity. Only then did the two of them notice Ye Fan.
Then, they took a closer look and were stunned. The middle-aged man reacted quickly and immediately recognized the other party.
“Ye Fan!”
“It’s you!”
The old man also narrowed his eyes and looked at Ye Fan carefully.
After the Hand of the Abyss’s stronghold was destroyed, Ye Fan was not only famous in the military, but also famous in the sect.
In the entire Chaohai City, the person the Hand of the Abyss wanted to kill the most was Ye Fan. If he was ranked second, no one would dare to be first.
The higher-ups of the sect knew very well that if they allowed a genius like Ye Fan to continue growing, he would definitely become the greatest threat to the sect in the near future. Such a person had to be killed before it was too late.
This idea was excellent, but it was not easy to implement, because Ye Fan’s whereabouts were usually hard to figure out. He could either stay in the academy or go outside the city to train.
Normally, they didn’t have the ability to enter the academy. They could only find an opportunity to attack outside the city. However, they knew Ye Fan’s strength very well. He had become a Rank-6 Beast Tamer at such a young age.
Ordinary small fries could not deal with Ye Fan even if they saw him. Other than the upper echelons of the sect, no one else had the ability to do so.
But there were very few people in the upper echelons. They all had their own missions. No one could keep an eye on Ye Fan. Ordinary disciples could not chase after Ye Fan in the wilderness without being discovered.
Thus, as time passed, Ye Fan became a hot potato in the sect. He was troublesome to deal with, but they had to deal with him.
They did not expect to see Ye Fan here, the two of them looked at each other with surprise in their eyes. This was a great opportunity to get rid of Ye Fan, and it was a rare opportunity.
“Our luck is really good. Our target has personally come knocking on our door. How can there be such a good thing?”
The middle-aged man was overjoyed. He could not hide it on the surface and laughed.
“We’ve wanted to get rid of you for a long time. Since you took the initiative to come over today, we won’t stand on ceremony.”
The old man also looked at Ye Fan with a sinister expression, mocking: “You chose to come to such a small place to die instead of walking on the main road. To put it bluntly, you are unlucky and are going to die here today.”
They echoed each other as if they were giving Ye Fan a death sentence. Their gazes were like they were looking at a corpse, and they had such strength and confidence.
This was because as Rank-1 cadres of the Hand of the Abyss, the two of them were Rank-7.
