Sneak Attack

The hawk that flew at Xue Bai was only in the Blood Exchange Realm, and he could easily slice it in two. However, doing that would reveal his cultivation to the other hawks on the mountaintop, so Xue Bai instead released the aura of his High Heaven Grade Bloodline to let every hawk on the mountaintop know that he was royalty.

Appearing in his hybrid form and fully unleashing his High Heaven Grade Bloodline into the air, the hawk who thought it had another easy meal. Instantly pressed itself against the ground in fear.

And soon enough, the hawk in front of Xue Bai wasn't the only one. Out from the trees, other hawks flew out from where they were before and prostrated themselves onto the ground in front of Xue Bai.

Birds from the early stages of the Blood Exchange Realm to the peak of the Muscle Nourishment Realm flew out from their nests and lay on the ground with their beaks on the rocky floor, awaiting Xue Bai's next move.

However, Xue Bai was still waiting, as the mountain overlord hadn't come out from his nest yet. The overlord was the only creature in this Secret Realm in the Bone Strengthening Realm, and Xue Bai needed its strength to wipe out all of the Wang Clan members confidently.

And after waiting for another minute, the hawk flew out. But compared to the rest of its species, it looked different. Along its wings, there was a trace of lightning flickering.

"You actually have a trace of a thunderhawk bloodline. I didn't notice before, but you are indeed special from the rest." Xue Bai thought aloud.

A thunderhawk was a beast that could potentially grow to the Immortal Great Realm and could create thunderstorms with the flap of its wings. But this little hawk in front of him didn't have a pure enough Bloodline to do anything near that significant. Just the fact that it was still in the Bone Strenghtihng stage showed that.

"Well, that is going to make everything easier." Xue Bai spoke.

Pointing his finger at the beast, Xue Bai gestured for it to come close. And though it was still terrified of Xue Bai, it still walked over and prostrated itself at Xue Bai's feet.

Climbing on its back, Xue Bai patted it, saying, "Get up. You have to kill a group of people for me."

Usually, a beast in its Realm wouldn't be able to understand Xue Bai, but since it had a trace of an Immortal Bloodline through its Bloodline Inheritance, it was able to understand the general meaning of Xue Bai's words.

So after Xue Bai sat down comfortably, it stood up and cawed loudly for the rest of its species to hear while flying off the mountaintop.

After flying off, the other hawks, who were still prostrated on the ground, stood up and flew in the direction of the thunderhawk. Although Xue Bai subdued it as the overlord of the Secret Realm, it could still command the rest of his species. So after hearing the thunderhawk caw, they all followed him.

While sitting on the thunderhawk's back, Xue Bai guided it toward the Wang Clan cluster. However, along the way, Xue Bai would stop and pick various Natural Treasures that he spotted.

Though they were only of the Low Yellow Grade, they all would help Xue Bai path out his veins faster, so he collected them without restraint.

Finally, after another hour of flying and scavenging, Xue Bai found the Wang Clan members. Currently, they were fighting a small clan of monkey Demonic Beasts.

The leader of the clan was a tall and ferocious-looking ape that stood at over 3 meters and was half a step into the Bone Strengthening Realm.

To contain the ape while the weaker Wang Clan members wiped out the clan of monkeys, the four Wang Clan members that were at the Peak of the Muscle Nourishing Realm joined together and were suppressing him. However, they were unable to do any severe damage to him and were waiting for the rest of the fellow clan members to help after killing all the monkeys.

The Grand Elder's grandson was far away from the battle, calling out orders whenever was needed, which gave him the appearance of a scholarly strategist. However, Xue Bai knew that he was just as bloodthirsty as Wang Yu.

His identity was just as prestigious, and it allowed him to do as he wanted. And with a Demonic Sect as their superior, how could he not act as he wished?

As the Wang Clan members fought their hearts out, Xue Bai stood in the air and watched them calmly. Though he had enough battle power to kill them all with the hawks he had brought with him, he wanted to play the role of a fisherman and wait until both slides were weak and then come in and wipe them both out.

The battle continued on for a long time, but the Wang Clan were winning in a dominant fashion. The only reason the monkeys were still holding on was the Ape leader was holding back the Wang Clan's strongest fighters. And without the strength of the Peak Muscle Nourshiing Realm cultivators, Wang Mo, the Grand Elder's grandson, ordered them to fight in groups of three to ensure there were no casualties. This strategy worked, but it also slowed down the speed at which the monkeys were killed.

Xue Bai seeing all of this, estimated that the fight wouldn't end for another hour. So he sat down on the thunderhawk and started to cultivate.

"Make a sound when the battle ends." Xue Bai ordered before sealing his senses.

Currently, Xue Bai was at the 7th stage of the Vein Transformation Realm as he had just pathed out his Lung Vein.

So taking out a Spirit Fruit from his spatial ring Xue Bai quickly consumed it and prepared to path out his Heart Vein.

The Heart and the Brain Vein were the most important of all the Veins in the Vein Transformation Realm. The Heart Vein could increase your regenerative abilities tenfold. While the Brain Vein increases your intelligence, computing power, and comprehension ability.

After consuming the first Spirit Fruit, Xue Bai sensed he only had about a fifth of the needed Spiritual Qi to reach the next stage. So he pulled out four more and consumed them as fast as possible. With the Kidney Vein, he wasn't worried about building any impurities within himself.

Though it took almost an hour, Xue Bai finally ate all the Spirit Fruits and had gathered the Spiritual QI from them and prepared to path out his Heart Vein. But before he could, the thunderhawk he was riding on cawed out.

Opening his eyes, annoyed, Xue Bai looked down and saw that the ape was finally severely injured by the Wang Clan members. One of the Peak Muscle Nourishing cultivators had managed to stab one of its eyes, blinding it.

Without half its vision, the ape was quickly suppressed by the Wang Clan members. They took advantage of the ape's vision loss by staying on the side without vision. Though the ape knew what they were doing, it could do nothing to stop it and was soon severely injured again as another Wang Clan member nearly managed to sever an arm, crippling it.

Then, without an eye and arm to fight against the besiegement, the ape finally fell unwillingly.

"Don't attack just yet. Prepare yourself and target accurately. In the first attack, you must take out at least two of those Peak Muscle Nourishing Realm cultivators." Xue Bai calmly spoke.

The thunderhawk under him wanted to complete its mission as fast as possible and get this wild ancestor off of its back as quickly as possible. However, after hearing the order, it calmed down and tensed its body, ready to attack.

Though Xue Bai was too high up to hear what the Wang Clan members were speaking about, he could see Wang Mo come out from his hiding spot and start to order them to dissect the monkeys for loot.

Though the Wang Clan was already extremely rich, more money was never an issue, and the bodies of an entire clan of monkey demonic beasts would sell for a pretty penny.

The weaker members were designated with the job of dissecting the monkeys, while the four strongest had the job of the ape leader.

However, two were too tired to help, so they sat down to meditate and regather their stamina before joining in.

Unaware of the danger Wang Mo allowed them and also sat down and cultivated. As he was in the center of his clan members, he assumed it would be safe to cultivate and seal his senses.

Up above, Xue Bai finally found his targets and chance to attack. And as soon as the 2 closed their eyes, Xue Bai ordered the hawks to strike.

"Go fast! Tell them that everyone must kill at least one of them in the first sneak attack!" Xue Bai ordered.

Conveying Xue Bai's message to its species with a loud caw, the thunderhawk flew down as thunder flickered off of its wings.

Though the thunderhawk was subdued by Xue Bai easily, it still was a Bone Strengthening Realm demonic beast with an Immortal Bloodline. It could have easily wiped out the Wang Clan and the monkeys by itself, though it might have taken a while.

But now, with the Wang Clan severely exhausted and with the help of over a dozen other hawks and a sneak attack, the attack couldn't have failed.
