1417: Chapter 1414: Full Moon Ti!
Shattering the Golden Pill essentially crippled the cultivation of Yellow Wolf.
After bringing him back to Fairy Cave Mountain, Lin Bai instructed Jing Shu to keep a close eye on him and then once again plunged into the battlefield.
A night of slaughter ensued and by dawn, the disciples of the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect returned to Fairy Cave Mountain with their bodies marred by wounds.
Clearly, tonight’s bloodshed had been even more brutal than the previous evening.
Even Nie Xiong, a Warrior at the Sixth Level of the Yin Saint Realm, was covered in scars.
Lin Bai said, “Everyone, go rest.”
Jing Shu arranged for the disciples to retreat into the belly of the mountain to begin their cultivation, and at this mont, Lin Bai brought out Yellow Wolf from inside the mountain and threw him onto the platform.
By now, Yellow Wolf had taken on human form, a young man with decent features, a sly smile playing on his lips, his eyes sharply fixed on Lin Bai.
“Kid, do you have any idea how much trouble you’ve gotten yourself into?” Yellow Wolf glared at Lin Bai, his voice cold.
Nie Xiong, grinding his teeth, said, “Still dare to be arrogant?
Senior Brother Dongfang, don’t bother with questions—let hack at him a few hundred tis first.
Don’t worry, I’ve killed so many demon beasts, I know how to do it without killing him!”
Hearing this, Yellow Wolf’s body shuddered, casting a resentful and worried glance at Nie Xiong.
Lin Bai said, “Answer my questions properly, and I might just ensure you have a chance to live; otherwise, I’ll really hand you over to him!”
“This gentleman here isn’t soone easy to provoke.
No demon from the Demon Clan who falls into his hands ever survives a day,” Lin Bai added coldly.
Yellow Wolf, wary of the fierce-looking Nie Xiong, nodded slightly to show that he agreed to Lin Bai’s demand.
Seeing Yellow Wolf capitulate, Lin Bai, Nie Xiong, Jing Shu, and the others were inwardly pleased.
Lin Bai asked, “When does Tianxiao Mountain plan to attack Fairy Cave Mountain?”
With a slight smile, Yellow Wolf responded, “Aren’t we already attacking?
Did you think we were coming over these past few nights just to have a drink with you?”
Lin Bai replied with a smile, “Is this what you call an attack?
Firing a shot and then running away?
This doesn’t seem like you’re trying to seize the Spirit Awakening Grass.”
“You must be probing,” Lin Bai said, smiling.
“What would we be probing for?” Yellow Wolf replied with a laugh.
Lin Bai spoke, “You’re testing the strength of Fairy Cave Mountain’s defending warriors, seeing if there are any masters from the White Snake Clan hidden among us, and at the sa ti, you’re whittling down our forces.”
Yellow Wolf, his eyes rolling mischievously like a fox with its tail caught, humd, “Hmm, sharp eyes.”
With a faint smile, Yellow Wolf said, “Indeed, we’re testing you.
Once we have a clear picture of your strength, we’ll wipe out all the warriors here!”
“It’s always more satisfying to kill the Human Clan than the Demon Clan each year!”
With a cold laugh, Yellow Wolf said, “You, you, you, and all of you, don’t even think about running away.
Just wait, once my elder brother cos over to kill, this place will surely be awash with blood!”
Lin Bai responded, “I don’t know if our place will turn into a river of blood when your elder brother cos to kill, but I do know that if you don’t answer my questions, I’ll make sure you bleed incessantly!”
Lin Bai drew out the Demonic Sword and placed it against Yellow Wolf’s neck.
“What’s the question?” Yellow Wolf asked coldly.
Lin Bai asked, “When does Tianxiao Mountain plan to attack Fairy Cave Mountain?”
Upon hearing Lin Bai returning to this question, Yellow Wolf’s expression turned grim.
After a long silence, he said, “According to the original plan, in fifteen days, at the ti of the full moon.”
Lin Bai asked curiously, “Why in fifteen days?”
Yellow Wolf explained, “We received information from inside the White Snake Clan that the day after the full moon, the White Snake Clan will send their experts here to harvest the Spirit Awakening Grass.
This is our last opportunity!”
Nie Xiong, Jing Shu, Zhuo Lian, Luo Xuan, and others heard that Tianxiao Mountain was about to launch an attack in half a month’s ti, and they all imdiately showed anxious expressions on their faces.
Lin Bai asked coldly, “How many strong ones does Tianxiao Mountain have?”
Upon hearing Lin Bai’s question, Yellow Wolf showed a mocking smile on his face, “That’s actually a decent question.
Now listen carefully.”
“Atop Tianxiao Mountain, I have two brothers.
My eldest brother, Huang Long, is a ninth-level master of the Yin Saint Realm, and my second brother, Huang Hu, is an eighth-level master of the Yin Saint Realm!”
“Those who know better would release , and then send that beauty over for my bedchamber.
I might even plead with my elder brother on your behalf and spare you a dog’s death.
Otherwise, none of you will die with a whole corpse,” Yellow Wolf said with a face full of murderous intent.
While speaking, Yellow Wolf looked at Jing Shu with a greedy gleam in his eyes.
Jing Shu, with her face flushed red with sha, stepped forward and slapped Yellow Wolf hard across the face, “Shaless!”
Yellow Wolf spat out a mouthful of bloody saliva, laughing coldly, “Hit , beautiful.
When my elder and second brothers co, I’ll return every slap you’ve given !”
Nie Xiong whispered to Lin Bai, “An eighth-level and a ninth-level of the Yin Saint Realm; these are not easy opponents.”
Lin Bai nodded solemnly and then asked, “Apart from your elder and second brothers, are there other strong ones on Tianxiao Mountain?”
Yellow Wolf sneered, “No more.”
Lin Bai asked sharply, “Are you lying to ?”
Yellow Wolf glared at Lin Bai, “Do you think I’d lie to you when my life is in your hands?”
Lin Bai said, “In the past few years, every year, there have been strong ones from the Eight Great Monster Clans hidden among the Demon Clan of Tianxiao Mountain.
Why don’t you ntion that?”
Yellow Wolf said grumpily, “It’s true that in previous years there were strong ones from the Eight Great Monster Clans here, but not this year.
That’s because we’re planning to monopolize the Spirit Awakening Grass and then sell it off!”
“You should know that nowadays in the Hanhai Demon Kingdom, a single Spirit Awakening Grass goes for the astronomical price of ten million Spiritual Stones!”
“And there are a hundred thousand stalks of Spirit Awakening Grass in Fairy Cave Mountain.
We don’t want much, just ten thousand stalks would be enough!
If we were to sell these, it would be a mighty stroke of fortune!”
At these words, Lin Bai’s eyes narrowed!
Lin Bai had not expected the Spirit Awakening Grass to be so sought after in the Hanhai Demon Kingdom.
Yellow Wolf sneered, “You Warriors, of course, wouldn’t understand.
If it wasn’t for so strong ones within the Demon Clan forcibly unlocking their spiritual wisdom, it’s almost impossible for the Demon Clan to awaken their spiritual intellect before cultivation—almost like ascending to heaven!”
“The Demon Clan is different from your Human Clan.”
“Your Human Clan has an innate advantage; as you age, your spiritual wisdom continuously grows!”
“But the Demon Clan is different.
After they’re born, unless they consu Heaven and Earth Spiritual Objects, their spiritual wisdom awakens very slowly.
Many mbers of the Demon Clan take decades of Cultivation to reach the spiritual wisdom of an eight- or nine-year-old human child!”
“And these mature Spirit Awakening Grasses, once consud by an individual of the Demon Clan, can unlock spiritual wisdom equivalent to that of the Human Clan.
For the Demon Clan, this is undoubtedly giving them an opportunity for rebirth!”
“One of the reasons the White Snake Clan sits among the top ranks of the Eight Great Monster Clans is because of this Spirit Awakening Grass!”
“This Fairy Cave Mountain that you’ve been guarding is just one of the lesser places where the Spirit Awakening Grass is planted.”
“The White Snake Clan has eighteen Spirit Awakening Grass planting sites, and this one is just the smallest one with the least planted!”
“So even if we lose more than ten thousand stalks of Spirit Awakening Grass, the White Snake Clan won’t fly into a rage out of humiliation!”
“After stealing enough Spirit Awakening Grass, we’ll leave Tianxiao Mountain and blend into the Hanhai Demon Kingdom.
It’s vast with both Heaven and Earth, and even with the White Snake Clan’s heaven-reaching thods, it would be hard to find the three of us brothers,” Yellow Wolf said, smiling faintly.
From Yellow Wolf’s tone, it seed like they had done this many tis before, an old hand at the ga!
