Chapter 527
The two rushed into the grass, laughing wantonly.
The Black Wolf Demon behind them, seeing this, also stopped in time, not daring to approach rashly.
From the mouths of these two humans, this grass clearly had problems.
But at this moment in the grass, the two were confused, looking at each other.
Where are the people? Why is there no one in the grass?
"Where are Brother Xu and the others?"
"I don't know. They wouldn't have left, would they?"
"That can't be. Brother Xu isn't that kind of person."
You lured the demon beast, but where are the people? The grass was empty. For a moment, both were panicked; there was still a Black Wolf Demon outside the grass eager to try.
After waiting for a long time without seeing any problems, the Black Wolf Demon gradually realized that it had been tricked by these two humans.
The killing intent in its eyes surged suddenly. Damned humans, daring to trick it!
"I'll kill you!"
Leaping up, it lunged at the grass. Seeing this, the two were startled and turned to run.
They miscalculated. Once again, it was a chase. This time, the direction they ran was toward the grass where Xu Jie and the others were.
Seeing this, Xu Jie signaled everyone to prepare.
"What should we do?"
"Run, what else can we do?"
The two were definitely no match for this Black Wolf Demon; they had no choice but to run. Rushing into the grass, they thought they would have to keep running, but at a glance, they discovered Xu Jie and the others.
"Brother Xu, why are you here?"
Hearing this, Xu Jie's mouth twitched, and he said irritably.
"We've been here the whole time; you went the wrong way yourselves."
"Went the wrong way? That shouldn't be; I remember it was just that patch of grass."
"Stop talking nonsense, go hide in the back."
Even the place for the ambush was messed up; Xu Jie didn't want to explain anything to the two.
At this time, the Black Wolf Demon behind roared and rushed into the grass headfirst.
"Despicable humans, still want to trick me? Give me... Holy crap..."
Originally thinking these two humans were still tricking it and that there was no one in the grass, it saw Xu Jie and the others rubbing their hands as soon as it rushed in.
The Black Wolf Demon was startled, but at this time it was clearly too late. Wan Xiang grabbed the Black Wolf Demon's head and pressed it to the ground.
Afterward, Lu Youyou took out the Demon-Binding Rope and tied the wolf demon up in one, two, three, four moves—fast, without any hesitation.
Seeing the Black Wolf Demon subdued, the two Stolen Forest heroes returned.
"Brother Xu."
"Hmm, you did well. Now you can go take the treasures of this demon beast."
"Brother Xu's method is still the best; now we don't have to worry about anything."
"Now is not the time to talk about this; let's take the treasures first."
The two left quickly, while Xu Jie and the others continued to ambush there, waiting for other demon beasts to take the bait.
It must be said, Xu Jie's method was indeed useful; before long, several demon beasts had taken the bait.
They were easily taken down. At this moment, the grass was full of demon beasts, all tied tightly with Demon-Binding Ropes, their mouths blocked, unable to make a sound.
They looked at Xu Jie and the others with terror in their eyes. What do these humans mean? Why capture them?
They had never encountered such a thing before. In the eyes of the demon beasts, the actions of these humans were simply too strange.
They didn't want treasures, only them? What did they want a group of demon beasts for? With this effort, why not go snatch treasures?
By the end of the day, the harvest was several times that of yesterday.
Not only Xu Jie and the others, but even the Stolen Forest heroes had a bountiful harvest. Thus, Xu Jie's reputation in the Stolen Forest rose to a higher level.
Many even expressed their willingness to follow Xu Jie's lead.
Looking at Xu Jie surrounded by a group of Stolen Forest heroes, Zhao Zhengping said.
"I think Third Junior Brother is quite suited for the Stolen Forest; look at this prestige—it's much stronger than in Dao Yi Sect."
"Do you think Third Senior Brother will become the Thief King of the Stolen Forest?"
"Hard to say."
Xu Jie's current prestige in the Stolen Forest indeed had the aura of a Thief King, making Ye Changqing and the others look sideways.
After parting ways with the Stolen Forest crowd and returning to the Spirit City, Ye Changqing began to cook.
Demon beasts with good bloodlines were directly raised in captivity, while those that were ordinary or useless were directly killed and eaten.
It was still a rich dinner, and everyone gorged themselves.
But while eating, some inner disciples of Divine Jianfeng asked strangely.
"By the way, where is Senior Brother Wang Wu? Why didn't he come?"
"Don't know; didn't see him all day."
"Nothing happened to him, right?"
It was very strange that he didn't even come to eat. You have to know that for Divine Jianfeng disciples, they might forget other things, but they would absolutely never forget to eat. Even if they only had one breath left, they would come to take a bite, even if it was just to smell the fragrance.
Wang Wu, in particular, had never missed a meal since he went out for training.
Several disciples were strange. Not only here, but the inner disciples of Jade Maiden Peak were also confused.
"Where is Senior Sister Song Yi?"
"Don't know."
Both were absent, which made their companions feel incredibly confused; it was truly strange.
Just as the disciples were eating, deep in Huling, this was already the territory of the Black Tiger Demon King.
There were many demon kings in Huling, and basically, every demon king had its own territory. At this moment, in the territory of the Black Tiger Demon King, under the cover of night, two figures moved quickly.
Their movements were light, without making a sound, and it looked like these two figures were extremely familiar with this place.
Along the way, they accurately avoided the patrols of many demon beasts.
"I remember the Black Tiger Demon King's last treasury is right here."
After running for a while, they finally stopped in front of a cave.
Dressed in night-traveling clothes and wearing masks, their faces couldn't be seen. However, just as the words fell, another black-clad person wearing a mask came over from another direction.
The two looked at each other, eyes meeting, and then one of them asked tentatively.
"Meal-Eating Fairy?"
Hearing this, the other black-clad person also asked softly.
"Meal-Eater?"
Huh???
Is it a woman? Hearing the Meal-Eating Fairy's answer, the Meal-Eater said softly.
"You came here because..."
"The Black Tiger Demon King's treasury, you should be too, right?"
"So we are heroes thinking alike?"
Both were aiming for this last treasury of the Black Tiger Demon King.
Previously, one had stolen a treasury of the Black Tiger Demon King, and now only this last one remained. After hearing about the Stolen Forest, both thought of this place at the same time.
Confirming their intentions, the Meal-Eating Fairy said.
"Since the goal is the same, why don't we cooperate?"
"Okay."
Soon agreeing to cooperate, the two tiptoed into the cave.
The cave was very dark, but for the two, it didn't matter; they could see clearly very easily.
