303: Chapter 301: Drive Straight In 303: Chapter 301: Drive Straight In As Xiang Nan’s Team and Mo Ye Team progressed, they encountered Ferocious Beasts more frequently, and with each encounter, the number of beasts increased.
Even with the strong overall capability of both teams, they felt overwheld.
Half a month later.
“Damn it, could these Ferocious Beasts be controlled by bandits?” After killing the last beast, Guo Tao cursed.
According to the information they had gathered, the bandit lair was only about two thousand li away.
“Quite possible.” Holding a long stick, Ding Yi leaned over and pulled a red stone from the back of the beast’s head, his expression extrely solemn.
Previously, due to rushing on their journey, they hadn’t had ti to inspect the corpses of the beasts.
Now that they had stopped to check, they finally made a discovery.
Those who could join the Genius Camp were definitely not fools but very clever and could quickly deduce.
“These stones are inscribed with Runes, enabling control of the Ferocious Beasts to attack us.” The stone in Ding Yi’s hand turned into powder and drifted down.
“What do we do now?” Guo Tao approached and asked, frowning.
After enduring nurous assaults from Ferocious Beasts, the mbers of their team had activated their Identity Tokens to form defensive armors.
Although it hadn’t reached the point where Jiu Zhu needed to assist, each of them had suffered significant exhaustion.
Even if they found the bandits’ lair, it would be very disadvantageous for them.
“These bandits, instead of confronting us directly, send Ferocious Beasts to attack us.
Their strength probably isn’t that great.
As long as we break through the encirclent of beasts, we can definitely complete the mission.”
“Forget about whether Dragon Hunting Team will catch up or not, let’s stop and recuperate for four hours.
After adjusting our condition to the peak, we’ll go straight to the bandit lair!” Ding Yi spoke loudly.
“Alright, I’ll listen to you,” Guo Tao nodded.
Imdiately, the mbers of both teams sat down cross-legged.
They took out Elixirs from their Space Rings, ingested them, and began silently restoring their Cultivation.
“Finally willing to stop and rest.” About fourteen li away in the dense forest, Xiao Ye also stopped.
While Xiang Nan’s Team and Mo Ye Team had experienced wave after wave of Ferocious Beast assaults, he had remained extrely at ease, unscathed.
Swoosh!
Just then, a whooshing sound ca from behind Xiao Ye.
A flash of brilliance appeared in Xiao Ye’s eyes as he turned around holding the Fla Saber, the blade emanating dazzling Sword Light, ready to attack at any ti.
“It’s .” A crisp female voice followed, and then Xiao Ye saw a green figure flash before him.
The person who arrived was Qing Wu.
Following her, others like Kuang Dao also arrived one by one.
“You finally ca.”
A smile appeared on Xiao Ye’s face; he had been worried that the mbers of the Dragon Hunting Team wouldn’t catch up before finding the beasts’ lair.
Given the vastness of the mountains, even if he left markers, Dragon Hunting Team might still lose their way.
“Xiao Ye, it’s good to see you’re alright.” Seeing Xiao Ye unhard, Qing Wu visibly relaxed.
“Does the team leader care a lot about ?” Xiao Ye couldn’t help but say.
The mbers of the Dragon Hunting Team burst into laughter, with Kuang Dao adding, “Of course, the team leader almost drove us crazy along the way, causing us to consu a lot of Elixirs, Xiao Ye, you owe for this.”
Xiao Ye’s face was speechless; Kuang Dao was just as sly as ever, no wonder he boldly demanded a lot from the Yan Family.
“What are you joking about at a ti like this?” Qing Wu’s delicate body shivered, her pretty face showing an unnatural flush of red, which quickly disappeared.
Qing Wu then looked at Xiao Ye and said, “What’s the situation now?
On our way here, we saw a lot of Ferocious Beast corpses, what exactly is going on?”
Xiao Ye’s expression turned solemn, then he explained everything.
“Those bandits, are they likely to control the Ferocious Beasts?”
After hearing Xiao Ye’s account, the mbers of Dragon Hunting Team gasped in shock, their expressions changing drastically as a serious atmosphere spread.
“Where are Xiang Nan’s Team and Mo Ye Team?” Qing Wu ignored the threat of the Ferocious Beasts; she just wanted to surpass the other two teams and complete the mission.
“Captain, don’t rush.
Since the bandits can control the Ferocious Beasts, we can let Xiang Nan’s Team and Mo Ye Team clear the way for us.
Plus, the beasts will also deplete their strength.
When we find the bandits’ lair, it’s not too late for us to make a move,” Xiao Ye said with a smile.
Qing Wu glanced at Xiao Ye, “You, you really have a dark heart.”
However, before she could finish her sentence, Qing Wu herself started giggling, lightening the tense atmosphere a lot.
“Haha, I like this approach.
Who made Ding Yi and Guo Tao trick us?
I really want to see the expressions on their faces then.” Kuang Dao’s remark triggered a burst of laughter.
Dangerous?
It was certainly dangerous that the bandits could control Ferocious Beasts.
But it was dangerous for Xiang Nan’s Team and Mo Ye Team; they just needed to follow.
If sothing seed amiss, they could just run away.
Now, those two teams were like their vanguard, while they could advance or defend as needed.
The mbers of the Dragon Hunting Team smiled mischievously, their gazes towards Xiao Ye changing.
Xiao Ye’s current importance in the Dragon Hunting Team even surpassed that of Qing Wu.
“I really don’t know what kind of freak you are; your Martial Arts True Intent detection can’t even be discovered by a Martial Artist from the Xuanwu Realm.” Qing Wu muttered, then settled down beside Xiao Ye.
Other mbers of the Dragon Hunting Team also took their seats one by one, waiting for Xiao Ye’s command.
anwhile, Xiao Ye unleashed his integrated Martial Arts True Intent, monitoring every move of Xiang Nan’s Team and Mo Ye Team.
“Hey, are you really from the Endless Sea?
It’s rare for a Martial Artist from such a place to be noticed by King Xingyun,” Qing Wu inquired, her beautiful eyes fixed on Xiao Ye’s face, filled with curiosity.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Ye frowned, and a sharp light flashed through his dark pupils.
“Do Martial Artists from the Endless Sea really that inferior?” Xiao Ye asked coldly.
The status of Martial Artists from the Endless Sea in the True Spirit Continent was very low, so whenever Xiao Ye heard such words, he felt extrely uncomfortable.
Xiao Ye suddenly changed his expression, causing Qing Wu to express her dissatisfaction: “It’s a fact that the Martial Artists from the Endless Sea have lower qualifications…”
But before she could finish her sentence, Xiao Ye coldly interrupted her: “It is indeed a fact, but it won’t be long before I change this reality!”
Qing Wu was taken aback, turned her head, and saw Xiao Ye staring at her, his eyes as intense as the blazing sun, his body filled with imnse confidence, radiating an aura like a peerless strong person, emitting endless sharpness.
In that mont, Qing Wu’s heart unexpectedly began to beat unnaturally fast; their eyes t, and Qing Wu couldn’t withstand Xiao Ye’s gaze and turned her eyes away first.
“Hmph, you dare to speak to like this; I was actually considering recomnding you to the Emperor Domain…” Qing Wu huffed and turned her head away, no longer paying attention to Xiao Ye.
Of course, Xiao Ye was unaware of Qing Wu’s inner thoughts; he was fully concentrated on monitoring the two teams.
Ti silently passed.
Four hours later—
“They’ve started moving!” Xiao Ye stood up abruptly and darted out quickly.
Upon hearing these words, the mbers of the Dragon Hunting Team hurriedly stood up and followed Xiao Ye.
“I’m so angry, I’m the captain!” Qing Wu angrily stomped her foot and followed with an angry face.
Under Xiao Ye’s leadership, the Dragon Hunting Team swiftly maneuvered through the dense forest.
Their range of Martial Arts True Intent release was only about five li (2.5 km); getting too close would risk detection, so they naturally followed Xiao Ye’s command.
Compared to Xiao Ye’s integrated Martial Arts True Intent, they were no better than blind.
Not long after, Xiang Nan’s Team and Mo Ye Team encountered another wave of Ferocious Beasts intercepting them.
Ding Yi and Guo Tao took the lead, unleashing their peak strength, bearing the majority of the pressure and carving a bloody path through.
mbers of the two teams rushed forward, battling the incoming Ferocious Beasts while quickly advancing, avoiding prolonged entanglents with them.
“It seems they’re not far from the bandits’ den based on their look,” Xiao Ye guessed sharply, observing keenly.
And indeed, that was the case.
Eight hundred li away from the two teams, there was a secluded gorge, obscured by nurous tall trees, resembling a ferocious beast lurking in the dark, ready to devour its prey.
On the cliff sides of the gorge, nurous caves had been carved out densely.
A careful inspection would reveal that the entire belly of the cliff had been hollowed out, forming a huge cavernous space connected to the nurous small caves.
At this mont, so firelight rose within the belly of the mountain, illuminating everything.
And within this cavern space, there was a man with long hair draped over, wearing a red robe.
A strange totem was carved at his brow, Gao Ran sat on a gold-plated throne, his eyes lightly closed, his body wrapped in a dense murderous aura.
“My Lord, that group of young people are coming,” suddenly, a Martial Artist dressed in beast skin entered, kneeling on one knee respectfully.
The man in the red robe opened his eyes upon hearing this, a flash of anger crossed his pupils, and his long hair moved automatically without wind.
“They’ve been warned by Ferocious Beasts and still dare to co?”
“King Xingyun really goes too far, using to train mbers of his Genius Camp; is this an insult to ?”
ntioning King Xingyun, a wave of helplessness surged in his heart.
The have a high-ranking Super Strong from King Martial Realm could easily crush him with one finger.
If he were to kill mbers of the Genius Camp, it might even provoke King Xingyun to take action; the dignity of King Martial Realm is not to be violated!
So, King Xingyun is essentially bullying him.
The man in the red robe grew angrier the more he thought about it, his body trembling uncontrollably.
“My Lord, what should we do?
Should we retreat?” The Martial Artist below hesitated for a mont then raised his head to ask.
Boom!
As the words fell, a terrifying gust of palm wind swept through, blasting the Martial Artist away and slamming him heavily against the cliffside, spitting out a mouthful of blood.
“Retreat?
As a Void Martial Realm Expert, would I bow down to a group of green youngsters?
My plan must not fail!” The man in the red robe angrily proclaid.
“King Xingyun won’t let have my way, I won’t make it easy for him either!
Send the orders, kill!”
