Myth Beyond Heaven

The explosive fire blast out, reducing the trees nearby into pieces. The man who had unfortunately triggered the trap was immediately died on the spot while others had avoided it timely.

Ross stood up from the ground and quickly checked on his subordinates. Except for the broken corpse lying on the ground a few meters away, everyone seemed to be fine.

"I'm sorry, Boss." Mouse lowered his head as he saw his comrade die miserably.

Ross waved his hand. "Be careful next time. Let's move."

Everyone was a veteran. They could naturally regain their state of mind in a short time. After all, death was something happening all the time on the battlefield.

After experiencing Yun Lintian's well-calculated trap, Ross's team had become more cautious as they moved forward. They would occasionally exchange the information with other teams and found out only they encountered the trap.

"He should head toward the top. We can slowly surround him in all directions at the same time." Mouse said. A confused look appeared on his face as he asked. "By the way, Boss. Why did he choose this place? Isn't it a dead-end for him?"

Ross had considered this matter before. When he investigated Yun Lintian's background, he discovered this mountain was a place where Yun Lintian often came. He later concluded that Yun Lintian chose this place because he was familiar with it.

Ross did not answer the question. Instead, he said. "Be careful, everyone. Since we are trailing his path, there must be a lot of traps ahead of us."

Everyone in the team nodded their head and continued to move forward cautiously.

At this moment, Yun Lintian was shuttering through the forest path, heading to the mountain's east side. The earlier explosion allowed him to estimate their position and the time they needed to reach his position. He quickly seized this chance to find another team while they thought he was heading straight to the top of the mountain.

As someone who fought with the Hell Church countless times, Yun Lintian was familiar with their operation. It was impossible for them to come with just one team, and they must gear up with the best equipment.

Therefore, it was difficult for Yun Lintian to subdue all the enemy with his pitiful pistol and a few magazines worth-machine gun. The best thing he could do was seize their weapons for his own use.

Walking for a while, Yun Lintian seemed to notice a movement several meters away on his left side. He paused his track, took his mobile phone out, and sent a message to Lynn before throwing the phone away. Following that, he slowly let his breath down and moved forward in a small step.

A hundred meters away from Yun Lintian, a group of five people was walking toward the mountain's peak cautiously. Because of the heavy rain, a fog of water had become an obstacle to their night-vision. The night vision could only provide around fifty meters' range of vision for them. Thus, they were totally clueless about some movements ahead of them.

"Shit! This rain isn't going to stop at all." A blond-haired man cursed angrily. He was annoyed by the thick curtain of rain before him.

"Shut up, Roger. We better get rid of the target and leave this shitty place as soon as possible." A sturdy man named Chris scolded annoyingly. He also had the same feeling as Roger.

Roger stopped talking and increased his pace forward. Because of his eagerness to find Yun Lintian, he was completely unaware a man was hiding behind a thick tree in front of him. Before he could react, Roger suddenly felt his neck was pierced by a sharp object. Warmed blood gushed out quickly, along with the strength in his body gradually leaving him.

Roger clutched his neck tightly and tried to aim the gun toward Yun Lintian, who was retracting his knife. However, he couldn't even have time to pull the trigger. Yun Lintian had already seized his gun and knocked him down to the ground.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Rain of bullets immediately rushed toward Yun Lintian, but they were entirely blocked by the tree. Chris and his comrades did not stop shooting and continued to aim at the tree, as they believed Yun Lintian was still hiding behind it.

A moment later, Chris felt something wasn't right and raised his hand to stop his comrades. He made another gesture to the two people on his side to move to the left side of the tree while he and another man went to the right side.

When they were about to reach the tree, Chris made another gesture, and everyone swiftly rushed forward. They were immediately caught in surprise as they didn't see anyone here… Where and how did the target go?

Chris regained his composure and pointed at Roger, telling his people to check on him.

The man beside him slowly approached Roger and checked his pulse. A moment later, he shook his head, confirming Roger had already lost his life.

Chris frowned deeply while casting his gaze to the surroundings vigilantly. He, of course, heard about Yun Lintian's legendary deeds before. It was said he could come and go like a shadow. At that time, he felt it was too exaggerated. Now he understood everything was real.

Chris thought for a moment and made a hand sign telling everyone to move forward. This time, they chose to stick together and stared in all directions.

The atmosphere was extremely solemn. Chris and his people could clearly hear their own heartbeat despite the fact it was raining heavily.

At this moment, Chris suddenly caught an unknown object flying toward his group through the corner of his eyes. Immediately, he yelled. "Get down!"

Everyone quickly reacted and spread out before rolling on the ground. However, the explosion they had expected did not occur. Instead, they saw a figure flash out of the bush like a ghost.

Chris's reaction was quick, but Yun Lintian was faster. Before Chris could aim the gun at Yun Lintian, the latter had already grabbed his gun and inserted the pistol into the gap between his neck.

Bang!
