Mo Wen ignored Xiao Hei, who had been rambling nonsensically as if he had read too many stories. Shaking his heavy head, he put the bag back in the cabin and sat down to rest.
"Boss, you're awake! What about that guy? Doesn't it want the beads?" Mo Wen opened his eyes to see Xiao Hei looking up at him.
"That guy is dead; it no longer needs the beads." Naturally, he couldn't give away what he had just obtained. It was Xiao Hei's earlier words that reminded him that anyone entering the chaotic realm, along with the Demon Beasts, would likely go mad. Therefore, this Demon Beast should not be an exception. He decided to take a gamble, and it seemed he had made the right choice.
"Boss is mighty! Let's eat it!" Hearing that the Demon Beast was dead, Xiao Hei became excited. It was a big fellow and should be enough for two meals.
"..." Sigh. This guy thinks about food all day long and has an enormous appetite. He barely consumed one-tenth of a Beast Leg himself; the rest went into Xiao Hei's one-foot-long belly. He wondered if this qilin's stomach was a storage bag; otherwise, how could it hold so much? "Let's leave here first and find a place to eat."
"Boss, you rest for a bit; I'll take the helm." With that, he dashed to the driver's seat and began steering the boat with great enthusiasm. Watching Xiao Hei's eagerness, Mo Wen shook his head and simply closed his eyes; he indeed needed some rest. This battle had yielded rich rewards. The level of that Demon Beast had likely exceeded his judgment. Most importantly, he had discovered the function of the Chaos Bead. Although he had been affected quite a bit himself, as long as he grasped the timing well, he could still handle it easily.
"Boss! Wake up! Another big fellow is bringing us meat!" After two hours, Xiao Hei's voice rang out. In truth, Mo Wen would have noticed even without Xiao Hei calling him. However, what surprised Mo Wen was that Xiao Hei had detected the presence of that Demon Beast only a few seconds later than he did. This meant that Xiao Hei's perception range was not much smaller than his own. It wasn't due to smell; if it were about scent range, Mo Wen would undoubtedly be far behind.
Xiao Hei's speed at steering the boat was slow; they had only covered about thirty miles in those two hours. For another Demon Beast to appear so soon was unusual. Even if these Demon Beasts were coming to fight for territory, it shouldn't be this dense. Was it just a coincidence? But if it were a coincidence, why was this particular Demon Beast heading straight for him and Xiao Hei? Was it truly after the Chaos Bead? However, even sealed, the Chaos Bead emitted no scent close enough for Xiao Hei to detect; how could these Demon Beasts manage that? It was now certain that the previous lion-headed fish-bodied Demon Beast was not after the Chaos Bead.
Lost in thought, Mo Wen finally saw what was approaching: this Demon Beast was unique because it lacked scales and armor and instead had shiny fur. It measured over thirty feet long and resembled a gigantic seal.
"This meat should be special!" Seeing Boss Mo so calm, Xiao Hei simply stopped the boat and leaned over the deck to watch the approaching Demon Beast.
...
"Xiao Hei, how good is your sensitivity to Bloodlines?" Mo Wen asked from inside the cabin as he looked at Xiao Hei.
"It depends on which Bloodline it is. I once sensed the call of Bloodline Power to find my master. Why do you ask?" Xiao Hei replied in confusion. Ever since Boss returned looking troubled, he wanted to know what was on his mind—if Boss hadn't said not to use skills on him, he would have tried to see what Boss was thinking.
"I see now why those high-level Demon Beasts are hunting us," Mo Wen realized suddenly.
"Why? To bring us food?" In Xiao Hei's eyes, everything equated to food.
"Because you smell good!"
