"Finally, it's happening!" Girl Lu Jiu exclaimed excitedly in a low voice.
Wolf Cypress showed a look of disapproval, as if he wanted to say something but held it back. With a quick glance, he immediately said, "Are you talking about those two perverts who almost fight every few days? They're actually fighting?!"
"Even though they're not my friends, they're still neighbors!" Lu Jiu frowned and ground her teeth at Righteous Path. "Can you stop calling them perverts?"
"Uh! Sorry, I got too excited!" Wolf Cypress quickly replied.
He didn't want to get into a fight with this violent person. It was better to avoid conflict altogether; after all, it was more rewarding to dig up some Material Treasure instead!
The two of them secretly hid on the mountain peak, watching from a distance as the two creatures, resembling Tyrannosaurus Rexes, engaged in a fierce battle. They felt both excited and unable to suppress their low curses directed at these muscle-bound brutes.
After all, Ye Kai had been inside for quite a while.
It was certain that he had made his move; they just didn't know how things were going now. If those two idiots discovered him, he would be in for a beating!
These two were notorious for their loud roars during battles, which could drive nearby residents—especially the Girl—into fits of rage.
Now, if they could take advantage of the situation and get their hands on the Falling Star Pill or Warm Origin Pill, that would be perfect.
The two beasts charged into the mountains like bulldozers, smashing through countless ancient trees with explosive force, sending debris flying in all directions.
From afar, they could hear the dull thuds of their footsteps mixed with excited roars.
Before long, the two had disappeared from sight.
Then, from within a massive stone palace that looked exceptionally rough-hewn, a figure covered in mud rushed out. It was Ye Kai, but he looked extremely disheveled at that moment.
"Damn it!"
Whenever Ye Kai thought about the Pigsty he had entered, he couldn't help but feel a surge of anger.
This rough palace was no longer a palace; it was simply a Pigsty. Not only did it reek, but it was also filled with all sorts of broken items, resembling a garbage dump.
What was even more infuriating was that inside the palace, there was a group of Rotting Beasts. Although their attack power was low and they were individually weak, they possessed a particularly disgusting ability: the ability to spray foul liquid.
It was this very liquid that had splattered onto him, leaving a stain on his White Crane Robe that no amount of washing could completely remove.
The nauseating stench nearly knocked him out.
“Ugh, it stinks!!!”
“Ah, it's the Rotting Beast's foul liquid!!!”
Lu Jiu was the first to pinch his nose and jump back, while Wolf Cypress kept a wary distance of several dozen meters away. Neither of them dared to approach at that moment.
Seeing their reactions, Ye Kai's expression darkened immediately. However, he quickly brushed off his sleeves and asked calmly, “So, you both didn’t know there were Rotting Beasts inside and that they could spray foul liquid?”
“Hehe!”
Lu Jiu turned his head somewhat sheepishly but quickly realized that this might give away too much. He then spun around with an innocent expression and said, “I’ve never been inside, so how would I know there are Rotting Beasts?”
“That’s not good!”
Noticing that the leader of their trio was displeased, Wolf Cypress immediately chimed in with a sarcastic tone. He was particularly concerned about the Falling Star Pill and Warm Origin Pill.
He was more than willing to show off and boldly set a trap for that mischievous kid, Lu Jiu.
...
Upon hearing the furious roars of the four members of the Gengjin Tiger Clan, Fu Jinbao immediately transformed into a streak of golden light and dashed into the herb garden. When he finally stood by the Spirit Herb Pool and looked up, his breath caught in his throat.
Everything went dark before his eyes, and he nearly fell to the ground.
"Damn it!!!"
The Tao Tie, now in human form, also felt a wave of darkness wash over him, almost fainting as well.
At the edge of the empty spirit pool, there was a large pit in the ground. The Nine-Loop Grass had vanished without a trace, completely uprooted by someone!
The leaders of the fierce beasts who had followed Fu Jinbao into the garden all turned grim upon witnessing this scene.
An elder with bristling eyebrows and an aura of anger demanded, "You worthless rat, why didn’t you set up any prohibitions or barriers?"
"We haven't encountered such a thing in years! Even if I had set something up, who could I have prevented?!"
Fu Jinbao sat on the ground, wailing in despair, "I don’t know which bastard took advantage of my absence to dig up the spirit grass!"
At that moment, his expression shifted dramatically; one moment he had a ferocious rat's face, and the next he appeared human. He was engulfed in a frenzied state, an uncontrollable aura of menace surging from him.
Several leaders from the Fierce Beast Tribe who were nearby found themselves instinctively retreating from his presence.
Although this situation had become a reality, Fu Jinbao was still caught in a frenzy, his eyes bloodshot with rage as he wished he could flay the thief alive.
He had finally managed to cultivate a mature Nine-Loop Grass, and he was planning to combine it with various treasures and his siblings to make a concerted effort to steal more treasures, breaking open the prison gates that had confined them for hundreds of thousands of years.
However, unexpectedly, before they could even begin, the Nine-Loop Grass had already vanished.
Under normal circumstances, this wouldn't have been a major issue, but now nearly all the ferocious beasts were aware of the situation. If he couldn't retrieve it, he would be guilty of a capital offense.
The Rodent Clan would undoubtedly want him dead, and other clans wouldn't let him off easily either!
If he wanted to survive, he had only two options.
The first was to cultivate another Nine-Loop Grass.
The second was to find the thief who stole the Nine-Loop Grass, retrieve the precious herb, and tear that thief to shreds.
Without the Nine-Loop Grass as a talisman, the first option was utterly impractical; he wasn't the only one in the clan capable of cultivating it.
Thus, the clan might not exert themselves to protect him.
Though he was considered an elder of the clan, he couldn't withstand the madness of being trapped for hundreds of thousands of years. Just when everyone had glimpsed a ray of hope in escaping their prison, that hope could be shattered once again.
Even as a leader of his people, at this moment, he had no choice but to lower his head and risk being torn apart by the frenzied clans around him.
Moreover, although there were constant underhanded dealings between the Rodent Clan and the Gengjin Tiger Clan, they were still nominally members of this increasingly rare group of ferocious beasts. At this moment, in front of everyone watching, it was impossible for them to betray themselves.
Therefore, it was true that the Nine-Loop Grass had been stolen.
Right now, he could only mobilize all available forces to find the treasure thief; only then could his clan invest significant effort to ensure his safety.
Now that the Nine-Loop Grass was gone, the shadow of death suddenly loomed over Fu Shuo's heart, making it hard for him to breathe. Yet in that moment, his mind began to race faster than ever before.
"The Spiritual Energy in the soil hasn’t dissipated yet; the thief must not have gone far. Chase! We still have a chance to retrieve it!"
Fu Jinbao roared, not even bothering to call out to the other elders of the Fierce Beast Tribe. He transformed into a streak of golden light, his terrifying energy piercing through the entire estate as he shot off into the distance.
The other Elder Beasts exchanged glances, and then, with fierce expressions, they nodded in agreement. Fu Jinbao had gone mad, and with their tribe's abilities, it might indeed be possible to find the thief.
"It seems we’ve been taken advantage of and had the spiritual medicine stolen."
The Gluttonous Elder said solemnly, "The Nine-Loop Grass is of great importance. We should split up and pursue; we must retrieve the spiritual medicine. This herb is our hope for escaping here, and the thief must pay a bloody price!"
"Exactly! It should be so!"
"Don’t forget that every hundred years or so, a group of humans sneaks in here. This is likely their doing."
"Then what are we waiting for? Let’s split up and make sure we find them."
"Let’s go! Go!"
Dozens of beams of light shot up simultaneously, scattering in all directions.
Meanwhile, Ye Kai had changed into a brand new White Crane Robe and had just bathed in a spiritual spring. He was happily contemplating his gains: "Hmm, this harvest is almost greater than what I got in the Veil of the World. However, this Nine-Loop Grass seems to be on the verge of maturity; it's already starting to bloom and will bear fruit soon!"
Just as he was thinking this, he suddenly felt a wave of murderous intent enveloping him from all sides. Turning around, he saw a streak of green light piercing through the air, cutting through the clouds and shooting toward him.
Startled, he immediately placed four Talisman on Wolf Cypress, while simultaneously forming hand seals and swiftly burrowing deep into the ground with Wolf Cypress.
There was a Golden Winged Eagle, whose overwhelming and terrifying magical power swept through the area, quickly locating Lü Jiu. It immediately demanded, "Qing She, have you noticed any humans entering!?"
Wolf Cypress glanced at the Talisman on its chest, not daring to ask anything, let alone use Divine Sense to communicate. In the presence of such an ancient Old Monster, any slight movement would be a death wish.
At that moment, the anxious duo heard Lü Jiu's crisp voice asking, "Uncle Peng, have humans come in here? You must be mistaken; we can't even get out, how could weak humans enter?"
"Hmph! Where do you get all this nonsense?!"
The Golden Winged Eagle spoke coldly, "Qing She, remember to watch your mouth. Don't ask what you shouldn't. If you see any humans, you must report it. Do you understand?"
Lü Jiu obediently nodded. In the blink of an eye, the Golden Winged Eagle flapped its wings, and Speed surged dramatically before it vanished without a trace.
After a long while, Ye Kai finally emerged from the ground with a still shaken Wolf Cypress.
Meanwhile, Lü Jiu wore a grim expression, seemingly furious to the point of smoke coming out of her ears as she growled fiercely, "Damn feathered chicken! If I hadn't been born tens of thousands of years later, I would have swallowed you whole!"
Seeing the almost tangible aura of ferocity surrounding her, Ye Kai and Wolf Cypress couldn't help but feel alarmed.
This Qing She appeared to be no ordinary creature; she was certainly much stronger than they had initially perceived.
