Outsmarting

"Nath Hua run!" Fin Lan screamed at the top of his lungs.

In the mountain filled with the bright and lively trees were being themselves today also. The floor was still wet as it was still around morning. The leaves on the ground remained with that vital greenness. Some leaves were dead, one with the origin.

The day was getting bloodier. Subsequently, just as Nath Hua and Fin Lan along with Fang Xiuying. The misty iris warrior tribe started to attack them.

"What the fuc*k bro! Why are you guys attacking us." Fin Lan screamed furiously.

There was a confused look on his face. Just as they were hoping for an answer, they did not get a single response from them.

Nath looked at Fang Xiuying. She looked worried.

"Brother Nath, thank you for helping me reach this place. It was fun." She responded.

Nath Hua looked at both Fan Xiuying and Fin Lan without speaking a single word.

He started to warn them and he ran.

"Everyone run in different ways." Nath Hua started to run.

Fin Lan was about to curse from anger. Separating in such a situation was extremely dumb. The theory behind this was that the forces would go after only one of them but they had a huge army so they could just send a lot of manpower behind them.

Nath Hua had already run towards the north. Fin Lan wanted to follow him but some of the guards had already started chasing him. Fin Lan could deal with many normal humans but he could not take over an entire army. He was still in mortal realms.

"Fu*ck." He grabbed Fang Xiuying and ran towards the South. Both of them were running towards the South.

"Zhou Lan, Brother Nath is still there. We can not leave him alone." Fang Xiuying started to retaliate.

Fin Lan was trying his best to control his anger. Despite Fang Xiuying's opinion he had pulled her with his strength and had started to run.

"Fang Xiuying, survive first then we can go and save him. He wouldn't want to see us dead, would he?" Fin Lan reasoned against her.

Fang Xiuying could not respond this time. Both of them were running but at this pace, they would be caught.

Fin Lan was experienced with such situations so he was already planning his course of action.

After running for 10 minutes straight, they had lost the tribesmen following them. Fin Lan did his best to hide their traces.

"crhip" A rustling sound had radiated its energy and vibration.

Fin Lan grabbed Fang Xiuying and pulled her close to him and hid behind the tree.

Fang Xiuying was breathing hastily. Fin Lan blocked her mouth to reduce the sound as much as he could.

There were 5 tribesmen with masculine figures holding falxes.

They were about 10 meters far hidden behind the frank tree. The tribesmen were incoming towards them. Fin Lan was sweating heavily. He had no choice but to prepare his sword.

Currently, it was very awkward for him, he had to use one hand to hold Fang Xiuying and he had to use another hand to prepare his sword while hiding.

The sound of their footstep was still approaching.

"Today, I am going to catch those bastards. Today I'm going to become rich"

Woka Loka was grinning in his imagination. He had reached the age of scared oath already. That meant that he could now officially and legally challenge men to duel.

He could finally contribute and climb the hierarchy. He had been excited to finally marry his childhood friend in the upcoming festival of awakening. The festival awakening was just the native version of immortal awakening when someone reaches the right age.

"Woka Loka, please come back safe." Li Loka cried out.

"You don't need to worry about me. After I am back be ready to hold my primitive essence." Woka Loka confessed with an embarrassed expression.

Maybe because the sun was just arising or the mood was just like that. Both of them were flustered red.

Woka Loka left without looking back.

"Woka Loka, please be safe." she prayed.

"Woka Loka, after you are back I am going to challenge you so be ready." One of them expressed.

"Heh, I am glad to go against you." Woka Loka laughed out.

A jolting sound was heard. The laughing man had no head.

The head was flying out while the blood was still fresh, flowing out. Before the four could even react.

In a swift motion, a hand knife had already stabbed two of them. Before the body full of vitality could even fall down.

Fin Lan grabbed the sword and swiftly moved and killed the remaining before they could even react.

The body that had life could not even react. In an instant, every tribesman was killed.

Just like that hopes were killed. Fin Lan had to remove the traces. He had no choice so he slammed his hand into the ground.

Boom.

It created a deep hole. He had used his almost condensed immortal essence to reinforce his hands with strength.

The recoil of the force could not be handled by his mortal body. His hands were ripped just as it made an impact. His hands were injured. He needed at least a day to heal that. It was not that bad as Fin Lan had tempered his body to handle that.

The situation was getting worse.

"Hou Lan, what did you just do? How did you create that hole? Your hands are bleeding." Fin Xiuying was panicking. She was still recovering from how Fin Lan killed those tribesmen.

"Shush" Fin Lan wanted her to reduce the noises. Making the hole itself made a lot of noises.

The body was thrown into the hole. "Quickly bury those bodies there and cover them with mud, dirt, or anything you can." Fin Lan couldn't help but be furious.

After 10 minutes they had completely covered the hole but they couldn't hide the funky look on it. Fin Lan picked some herbs and mixed them there and threw them.

"Grass will grow here soon. Around 5 minutes."

"Run towards the South. We need to find run far from this place."

Fin Lan advised.

They started to run towards the South. The tribesmen could arrive at any moment.

The day had reached its peak already. It had already reached noon. They were exhausted already. Fin Lan was in a grave situation right now. He had injured his hands a little.

"What do we do now..." Before Fang Xiuying could even speak it was halted.

"The Sun will just exhaust us and make us dehydrated and our fate would be sealed." the slow and steady voice of Fin Lan could be heard.

"Should we go and take shelter under a large tree?" Fan Xiuying questioned.

"No, we should find a muddy area. We should cover ourselves in a muddy area. The mud in this area is special. They can be used to hydrate our skin and we may be our to survive." followed a voice.

"Uh, are you sure?" Fang Xiuying's confused voice could be heard.

"Yes, follow me. The southern part is full of such mud because of the continuous moisture present here. It rains a lot here." The question was answered.

Fin Lan started to carefully run towards the south again. After five minutes, they found a puddle, and right next to it was moist first.

Fin Lan without hesitation dived into the mud of at least 10 meters without any hesitation. He started to cover himself in that special kind of moist mud.

Fang Xiuying could not help but feel hesitation. She did not want to go in.

"If you want to die then stay there." Fin Lan said with a trace of coldness.
