Chapter 35: Chapter 35- Amassing Mischief Points (1)
Although your plan is brilliant, you still need to be careful" Amon cautioned.
"So when do you plan to start this little scheme of yours?"
"Now!".

The time was in the middle of the night, the forest was shrouded with darkness. The moonlight that seeped through the thick foliage of the trees, only illuminated a small area.
While Yang Chen and Amon were brewing up some evil plan, in another part of the forest, Zhang Zhan the elder of the Zhang clan was seated on top of a rock in meditation.
A campfire was around him and members of the Zhang clan could be seen coming and going from this place actively.
"Elder, I found someone who claims he knows who killed young master Zhang Wei and the others" A subordinate appeared from within the forest and reported.
Zhang Zhan who had his eyes closed, opened them when he heard those words. His eyes did not look at the member of the Zhang clan but at the man that was behind him.
Surprisingly, it was Li Hao, the leader of the hunter band who had escaped from Yang Chen's clutches twice.
Zhang Zhan's eyes scanned over the man, a pressure that only someone in the battle master class can release, emitted out of him.
FLAP... the sounds of clothes waving were heard and Zhang Zhan disappeared from his spot on the rock and appeared beside Li Hao like a ghost.
Before the latter could even react as to what had happened, his neck was already seized and he was suspended a couple of inches above the ground.
"Kugh!!..." face bright red from the obstruction of blood circulation, Li Hao growled in pain. He tried to move the battle energy inside his and break free from the ahdn that was clutching his neck.
"T-that was because... I was knocked unconscious. Yes, that brat must have thought I had died"
He couldn't say that he ran away leaving the young master to die. Hence Li Hao could only come up with some excuse on the spot.
"Heh, is that so? I see, your luck is quite good. Two survive death twice..."
Unexpectedly, Zhang Zhan bought it. He did not ask him anything further about it and instead shifted the topic back to the brat.
"You say that the young master of my clan was pursuing the same guy killed you team? Did he perchance look something like this?"
Zhang Zhan gestured with his chin and a subordinate immediately brought over a poster with Yang Chen's face drawn on it.
When Li Hao looked at the picture, he was lost for a good while. That was because...
"The picture and clothes look alike when I met the brat for the first time. However, he didn't look as thin and skinny on the poster. How do I say, he looked far more buffed and normal".
"?"
His words made the members of the Zhang clan who knew Yang Chen all too well, frown. They were after all, unaware of the changes that the latter had gone through in the span of a couple of weeks.
The malnourished Yang Chen whom they knew was an ordinary person with no talent, he was skinny and weak.
"So what is it, is it him or not?"
Sensing the annoyed tone in the elder's voice, Li Hao nodded his head in confirmation. He was only an Eight Star Battle Apprentice, in front of Zhang Zhan's pressure he was like a mouse in front of a cat.
"It's him, although he looks a little different now, having seen him twice, I cannot be mistaken".
Everybody was stunned, they couldn't believe that the killer who killed not only Elder Zhang Zhan's son, also managed to kill Young master Zhang Wei.
