n“I’ve fed you for so long. This time, it’s your turn to sacrifice.”
nOn the shore, Ye Qiyun was muttering to himself in his heart.
n
n
nHe knew that if this underwater blackwater snake were to really seriously injure Ye Xuan…
nOr even cause some even more serious consequences.
nIt would definitely not be able to survive.
nWhoosh!
n
n
nJust after Ye Qiyun had finished arranging everything, a thumb-sized figure in the distance hurriedly flew down from the top of the mountain.
nIt was like a large-sized bee.
n“Eh?”
nA beast under Ye Qiyun that was good at perception quickly perceived something about this scene and related it to Ye Qiyun.
n
n
n“It’s arriving so quickly?”
nYe Qiyun was stunned.
nHe had thought that Ye Xuan would not dare to meet them face to face after coming over.
nAfter all, Ye Xuan’s strength was still a far cry when compared to theirs.
n“No, my Lord. The one who came over was not Ye Xuan, but that little elf beast of Ye Xuan’s!”
nThe Beast Tamer, who reported the situation to Ye Qiyun, hurriedly explained.
n
n
nYe Qiyun frowned.
nBut following that, his furrowed brows loosened.
nAlthough he abhorred the human race.
nBut he knew that if he really killed a genius of the human race, no matter what kind of method they used, no one would be able to find out that he was the one who had done the deed.
nTo him, there was nothing beneficial about it at all.
nBut if he only killed a beast of a human genius of the human race and still prove that he was not the culprit…
nThen the consequences would undoubtedly not be as serious.
n“Alright, I got it.”
n
n
nThinking about it, Ye Qiyun nodded and said, “Let’s go. We will stick to our original plan.”
n“Try to think of a way to force that monster in the lake out, force it into our trap.”
nWith that said, he waved his hand and was about to lead the crowd as they all walked away into the distance.
nBut at that moment, when he turned around, his eyes revealed a flash of cold aura.
nTo a gifted Beast Tamer, the impact of losing a beast was fatal.
nEven if it was said that Ye Xuan was able to contract two beasts though he was only at Apprentice-level.
n“Wait a minute.”
nBut they had just turned around when on the top of a distant mountainside, Lil Wan had already transformed into a stream of light and was flying towards them at lightning speed.
nShe had ascended in star level to become a five-star Divine Wood Elf. After advancing to intermediate Dark Iron level, her mental energy was greatly increased, so much so that her flying speed also began to soar.
nIf one were really going to talk about the speed of flight, even the Tyrannosaurus could not compare with her.
nIn Ye Xuan’s hands, only the Thundercloud Lightning Wings would be able to suppress her in terms of speed.
nWith her extreme fast speed of flight, in the blink of an eye, she had arrived at a distance of twenty to thirty meters away from Ye Qiyun and his company of men.
n“That’s so fast.”
n
n
nSeeing Lil Wan’s speed, a hint of astonishment flashed across Ye Qiyun’s eyes.
nHe had not expected this beast of Ye Xuan’s, that looked exactly like a small elf, could actually be capable of such speed.
nBut immediately after.
nHe saw the direction that Lil Wan came from.
nAn imperceptible hint of ridicule and coldness flashed in his eyes.
nBecause when Lil Wan was flying over, she happened to pass by a small area above the lake that was right in front of her.
nAnd from his perception, that gigantic figure within the water of the lake had quietly dived in that direction.
n“Hey.”
nAt this time, Lil Wan seemed to have sensed something while flying over.
nHowever, she still stuck to the original plan and slightly slowed down her speed. Midair above the lake, where she reached somewhere about twenty meters away from Ye Qiyun and his men, stopped.
nThen opened her mouth and shouted at Ye Qiyun and the others.
nBoom!
nBut she had barely come to a halt in midair above the lake when a huge figure abruptly broke through the water surface of the lake.
nAmidst the water curtain that seemed to fill the entire sky, a huge snake with its bloody mouth widely opened was revealed. Very viciously, it charged towards her, ready to sink its fangs into her.
nIt seemed ready to swallow her into its belly in just one month.
nIn the distance, on the top of a mountain, Ye Gaojie saw this scene, and the corners of his mouth curled up.
nAs Ye Qiyun’s protector, he knew best the methods of Ye Qiyun.
nThis scene was something that he had long expected to see.
nAt the same time, he also knew that this beast, Lil Wan, was significant to Ye Xuan.
nOn the other hand, Ye Xuan was undoubtedly the genius that Lin Shiru valued the most.
nUsing the life of a Bronze-level snake, he had fed and reared in exchange for a beast of great importance to Ye Xuan.
nTo him, it was completely worth it.
n“Mm?”
nSimultaneously, Lin Shiru, who was beside him, also saw this scene from afar. Her pupils instantly contracted.
nIt did not occur to her that the Eternal Night Clan could actually be so audacious.
nThey dared to lay such deadly hands-on Ye Xuan’s beast right before her very eyes.
nAs for that huge black snake, on account that it was not a beast of the Eternal Night Clan, and because it was too far away, she had not been able to see it in time.
nAnd also, because it was just too far away, at this point, even if she wanted to intervene and stop it to save Lil Wan…
nIt was all too late.
nOn the other hand, Ye Xuan, who also saw the same thing happening, clenched his fist tightly.
nAlthough Lil Wan could still undergo resurrection in her Beast Lair after death.
nHe had not wished for Lil Wan to die.
nNot even once had he wished for something like that!
n“Whoosh!”
nAnd just at this moment.
nJust as the huge black snake poked its head out of the water and attempted to bite at Lil Wan.
nAfter ascending in star level, Lil Wan had acquired a powerful perception akin to that of a Symbiotic Divine Wood. She long detected something amiss.
nFrom a static state of motion, she flew high up into the sky without further ado.
nWhen she was in flight at a high altitude, she waved her hand and conveniently threw the three green seeds that she had previously prepared in her hands into the mouth of the snake.
nRumble!
nBefore the huge snake could react to what was going on, the three green seeds, under the influence of Lil Wan’s psychic power, instantly rushed into the depths of the huge snake’s throat.
nBang!
nAnd in the very next moment, the three green seeds that she threw into the mouth of the huge snake.
nIt was as if they had absorbed an immense amount of nutrients within an instant.
nIn the blink of an eye, in the body of the huge snake, they rapidly transformed into many green tree men that were five or six meters in height.
nThis change immediately caused the body of the huge, stupefied snake to burst open from the inside.
nIn an instant, the entire lake was filled with crimson red blood.
nAnd the moment the huge snake’s body exploded, Lil Wan retracted her small hands.
nAnd the three huge Divine Wood Guards were transformed back into three seeds that she recollected and put away.
nThe huge black snake just now was a Bronze-level beast.
nEven if there were two or three of her in a head-on confrontation, she might not necessarily be a match.
nBut in combat, it was never really totally just about strength.
nWisdom was required just as much.
nJust like she did.
nIn a short time, a Bronze-level monster perished in her hands.
nWhoosh!
nAfter killing the huge black snake, with a flash, Lil Wan’s figure arrived by the lake’s shore.
n“That’s too scary, too scary!”
nAfter reaching the shore, she immediately patted her little chest and revealed her face that showed an expression of lingering fear from a near-death experience.
n“If I may say, you are all big men with such small guts. I was in such grave danger just now. How come none of you steps out to save me?”
n“And it was pure luck that I happened to fly over and encounter this huge black snake just now.”
n“If not, who knows? You guys might be the target of this huge black snake instead.”
n“So in a way, it’s not too much to say that I am your saviour, all of you.:
n“And when you guys are looking at your saviour, don’t you even know how to say thank you?”
n“Or could it be that you people of the Eternal Night Clan are all like this?”
n“Holy sh*t!”
nHearing Lil Wan’s words, the dozen or so clansmen of the Eternal Night Clan standing on the lake’s shore almost cursed and swore out loud.
nYou killed the monster that we have fed and reared, and you still say you are our saviour?
nAnd even ask us to thank you?
nCan you people of the elf clan be any more shameless than this?
nEspecially Ye, Qiyun.
nAt this point, he had not fully recovered from the scene of a moment ago where Lil Wan killed the Bronze-level blackwater snake that he had bred for so long within the blink of an eye.
nShe was a Dark Iron Beast, and she killed a huge Bronze-level snake in the blink of an eye?
nThis scene overturned everything he knew within his perceptive mind.
nEven if he knew that it was mostly too much of a coincidence for Lil Wan to be able to attack and kill a blackwater snake.
nAnd also, that the blackwater had been much too careless.
n“Hey, are you all dumb? How is it that none of you is saying a word at all?”
nSeeing how Ye Qiyun and the others were completely not speaking, Lil Wan immediately dealt them another blow.
nHer purpose in coming over this time was precisely to antagonize them and pick up a fight.
nTherefore, regardless of how awful something might sound, she would say it out, nonetheless.
nWhether her words would offend these people of the Eternal Night Clan or not, or how offensive her words could be, it totally did not matter to her at all.
n“You’re Ye Xuan’s beast. Where is Ye Xuan?”
nAt this moment, Ye Qiyun finally recovered from the shock and found his ability to react.
nHe looked at Lil Wan, who was right in front of him. His eyes were glimmering with an intense murderous intent.
n“You can ask Ye Xuan…”
nLil Wan smiled.
nBut just as Ye Qiyun and the others thought she was going to say something.
nThey saw that when Lil Wan was halfway through her sentence, her gaze suddenly moved.
nIt was as if she sensed something that caused her to raise her head and look into the distance suddenly.
n“Eh… that is?”
nThe next moment, her body moved.
nWithout another word, she flew straight to a place that was behind Ye Qiyun and the others.
nLeaving behind Ye Qiyun and his men’s company in their original spots, looking all confused and puzzled.
nThis little thing, what tricks did she have up her sleeves again?
n“My Lord, the place that this little thing is flying to seems like the area that we have laid the trap ready in place to force that monster in the water into.”
n“D*mn!”
nWhen Ye Qiyun heard this, his expression changed, and he said, “Let’s go. Let’s give chase!”
nThe place where they laid the trap had cost them a lot of effort and work.
nIf Lil Wan destroyed it, then their hard work was all for naught.
n“Eh?”
nUp ahead was Lil Wan, who originally just wanted to test if she could lure Ye Qiyun and the others here.
nAnd yet, she flew away by herself all of a sudden.
nSeeing how Ye Qiyun and the others were quickly catching up with her from behind.
nHer face instantly revealed a hint of surprise.
nBut closely following her surprise, she seemed to have thought of something.
nAll of a sudden, she released her psychic power.
n“So that’s what this is all about.”
nThe next moment, a bizarre smile appeared on her face.
nShe finally knew why Ye Qiyun and the others would come chasing after her.
n“Really…”
nIt was just that after knowing the reason, she secretly shook her head.
nSecretly, she muttered to herself, saying that Ye Qiyun and his company actually laid such a trap that could not even hoodwink her.
nAnd they were actually thinking of using such a trap to capture the Tidal Treasure Snail. This was fool’s talk.
nAnd just as her mind was filled with thoughts of the Tidal Treasure Snail.
nIn the centre of the lake next to her.
nThere was something perched on a piece of gold, strange metal, and it was only the size of a hat.
nAnd it was also particularly similar to a hat.
nConvex on the top and concave at the bottom.
nAnd on top of it, there were also strange patterns of circular treasure snails that were constantly changing without a moment of pause. It seemed to have sensed something all of a sudden.
nIts entire body began to tremble uncontrollably without warning.
n“Treasure!”
n“It has the aura of a treasure!”
n“And the aura of this treasure is so powerful that even I myself have never felt before!”
nWhoosh!
nAfter sensing this aura, it did not even bother to stop and think.
nIt directly abandoned that piece of strange metal that was originally beneath it.
nIn the middle of the lake, a gorgeous white waterline was drawn instantaneously.
nVery quickly, it rushed towards that aura that had tempted all the cells in its body into trembling so vigorously.
n
