A hand reached out from the side and held Zheng Fat Man’s arm, stopping his next move.
“You take a break first.
Let handle this one.” Zhang Ji Xin tightened his fist, his face expressing his eagerness to try.
“Finally, an opponent who takes more than one punch…”
“Are you sure?” Zheng Qing looked skeptically at the red-faced witch’s stature, and then at the giant monkey 100 ters away, roaring with its chest thumping.
“Defeating that Monkey Demon is important, but keeping the Hunting team intact is even more crucial.”
“At the very least, I’m the main Hunter.
I know the extent of my limits.” Zhang Ji Xin took a deep breath, a confident smile on his face.
“Just a monkey, watch knock it into oblivion!”
Zheng Qing hesitated and just as he was about to make a decision, a hasty voice ca from behind him from Xiao Xiao:
“A large mass of demonic energy detected 2 kiloters to the southwest, with levels ranging from 3-7, approaching rapidly.”
“Mystic energy fluctuations mixed with demonic energy detected 5 kiloters due east, situation unknown!”
“I suggest we prepare in advance!”
Upon hearing this, Zheng Qing made a decisive change to his previous plans: “Swordsman, scout the situation to the southwest.
If possible, try to lead them on a wild goose chase.”
With that, he removed four Armor Horse Charms from his grey cloth bag and handed them to Blue Bird:
“These are Swift Travel Charms.
When necessary, prioritize disengagent.
Ensure your own safety first.”
Blue Bird took the Swift Travel Charms, slipped them into his pocket, bobbed his head slightly, and then vanished abruptly from the hilltop.
Zheng Qing turned to Xin Fat Man: “Fat Man, you support on the flanks…
Elder, the monkey is yours.”
Xin Fat Man agreed without hesitation, retrieving a box of potato chips from his pocket and started munching away.
“Roar!!”
At the foot of the hill, the fully transford Monkey Demon pounded its chest and roared.
With a single leap, it made its way towards the location of the people at the top of the hill.
Its eagerness ant that with one more leap, it would appear above their heads.
“Ha!”
Zhang Ji Xin took another deep breath, dashed a few steps to get behind the Monkey Demon, and with an uncanny accuracy, grabbed onto its tail.
Then, exerting all his might, he dragged the airborne Monkey Demon straight to the ground.
“Got you!”
With one roar from the red-faced witch, the giant Monkey Demon slamd into the grassland.
Even though they were tens of ters away, Zheng Qing could still clearly feel the faint tremor under his feet.
“Roar!!”
The Monkey Demon, now on the ground, growled in pain and fury.
Zheng Qing, already prepared with his slingshot, released ‘Soft Leg Curse’ Fu Bullet straight onto the Monkey Demon’s forehead.
“On it!
Take this punch, Monkey Face!!”
Zhang Ji Xin took advantage of the Monkey Demon’s fall, its legs now weak due to the spell, got on top of it and launched a flurry of punches, his fists moved like lightning, hacking, pounding, smacking, collapsing, a series of brutal strikes landed heavily on the Monkey Demon’s soft underbelly.
Zheng Qing raised his eyebrows in astonishnt as he listened to the thud of fists on flesh – he knew that Red Face was good with his fists, but he had never seen him go all out.
In fact, watching a man less than two ters tall beating up a giant beast six or seven ters high was a quite shockingly spectacular sight.
The Monkey Demon, after being hit by Zheng Qing’s magic and being brutally beaten by Zhang Ji Xin, scread and directly resorting to rolling away, showing no signs of wanting to stay.
Zhang Ji Xin, who was standing on the ape, almost got pinned under the huge beast.
Rolling to the edge of the burned forest, the Monkey Demon suddenly reached out, scooped up a handful of black ash from the woods, sprayed it behind itself and then shrunk in size, darting into the smoky woods.
The Red Face Witch, who was hot on its trail, got hit full-on by the black ash, his face instantly covered with soot, his eyes blinking within the smoke screen.
“Damn!
Aren’t wild demons supposed to be low in intelligence?!” Xin Fat Man couldn’t help but swear on the side.
“That depends on the individual.” Zheng Qing stated sowhat speechless, “Even normal monkeys aren’t particularly dumb…
Just like that Vine Monster, owning a whole forest but when it cos to fighting, it’s even softer than this monkey.”
While he was speaking, Zheng Qing had already used another Binding Spell to pull the disoriented Red Face Witch out of the smoke, and also used a Cleansing Spell to help Zhang Ji Xin clean up.:
“Water to Solve Your Worries, to dispel your caution!”
A stream of cool water gushed out from Zheng Qing’s Law book, soaking Zhang Ji Xin’s head and washing away the thick layer of black ash.
“God damn it!
This is deceit!
Just watch how I tear you apart with eighteen kinds of tricks!” The finally woke Red Face Witch muttered angrily, reaching into his chest to pull out a wooden box, flicking open the lid with his thumb, reaching in to grab a deep red pill the size of a longan.
“It’s not ti to use that yet.” Zheng Qing held down the lid of the small wooden box and shook his head at Zhang Ji Xin: “I didn’t bring you back here for you to go back and fight it…Your physique isn’t suited to this kind of opponent.”
Xin Fat Man clearly knew what he should say now: “Elder, you looked so cool!
Your punches and kicks almost incapacitated that monkey!”
At the comfort and persuasion of his two teammates, Zhang Ji Xin finally wasn’t as angry anymore.
“Where did the monkey go?” He turned his face and looked towards the edge of the forest.
The traces left by the Monkey Demon rolling over the grass was still clearly visible.
But that path took a turn into the forest and disappeared into the smoke.
“It should have run away.” Xin Fat Man took out another handful of fried beans, chewing on them vaguely: “After it threw a smoke grenade behind itself just now, the beast hid deeper into the forest…
The captain didn’t let chase it.”
“The damn thing survived!” Red Face Witch wiped the remaining water off his face, still feeling a bit angry.
“Are we really discussing fighting a monkey this much?!
Don’t you know the proverb villains die of talking too much?” From behind, ca the slightly annoyed voice of Xiao Xiao: “The Swordsman just sent a ssage, it’s a group of Wolf Demons!
He tried to take out a small one and now a group of Mother Wolves are chasing him down!”
Zheng Qing did not participate in the discussions among his comrades.
He furrowed his brows and looked westward.
A continuous expanse of hills stretched across the grasslands, blocking his sight.
According to Xiao Xiao’s prophecy, there seems to be so ssy magic fluctuations in that direction, but it’s extrely subtle.
This might be the first hunting team they might encounter since the Absolution Hunting Team entered this Hunting Ground.
He needs to make a choice.
Either to stay at a safe distance, keep away from that hunting team, or to initiate contact and try to understand the current situation.
“Everyone get ready!”
He finally made up his mind: “Support Swordsman, move to the southwest…The Wolf Demon Group ca from that direction, following their path should be relatively safe for now.”
