These people really have surrounded the entrance.

Regarding the actions of the Fire Spirit Tribe and the Scale Stone Tribe, Qi Wu and his side naturally saw them as well.

A Flame Martial Tribe member with a relatively minor injury quietly observed the situation outside the entrance, then returned with a dark face and said.

The people of the Fire Spirit Tribe and the Scale Stone Tribe indeed did not retreat; although they dared not enter Black Mang Mountain, they blocked everyone's retreat.

At present, leaving is impossible; once out of this Black Mang Mountain valley, they will surely be surrounded by the Fire Spirit Tribe and the Scale Stone Tribe.

As for breaking out, hope is even slimmer.

Previously being able to charge out of the Fire Spirit Tribe was because they were unprepared; but now, the Fire Spirit Tribe has even its Clan Chief and many tribal strongmen come.

Outside the entrance, it had long been sealed off water-tight; breaking out is difficult, nearly impossible.

Hearing this tribesman's words, Qi Wu again surveyed these Black Soul Beasts around, his heart turned cold halfway.

Now what should we do?

And Ye Zhangqing, who had been thinking of a plan, suddenly had a bright idea and came up with a good solution.

Although I don't know if it will work, for now we can only try; trying won't hurt.

Thinking this, Ye Zhangqing went back to the stove, buried himself in hard work.

Seeing this, each of those Black Soul Beasts around had black qi gurgling out, as if expressing excitement.

Is it time to eat again?

The Black Soul Beasts' thoughts are simple: they come just to eat; besides eating, they care nothing about anything else.

And watching Ye Zhangqing's actions, Qi Wu curiously asked.

"Ye Brother, what are you doing? Even if you cook, we can't eat it."

"Why suddenly start cooking again? Although I myself would love to eat, the problem is we can't get any."

"Even if you sacrifice your life here and get killed by these Black Soul Beasts, you still couldn't eat this hot meal."

Hearing that, Ye Zhangqing replied while busy.

"I have a plan, though I don't know if it will work; let's try first."

After saying that, Ye Zhangqing focused on making buns.

Not for any other reason, just because buns are easy to throw.

Ye Zhangqing's idea is simple: aren't all these Black Soul Beasts around here coming just to eat?

Given that momentum, if any Flame Martial Tribe person hesitated even a second longer, these Black Soul Beasts would have pounced directly.

By then, the outcome would not be what it is now.

The Flame Martial Tribe people know the purpose of these Black Soul Beasts, so they can grit their teeth and abandon the food in their hands.

But the Fire Spirit Tribe and Scale Stone Tribe outside don't know; how would they know these Black Soul Beasts are coming just to eat?

Even Ye Zhangqing's cooking skill, the Fire Spirit Tribe and Scale Stone Tribe are completely unaware.

In that case, Ye Zhangqing intends to make use of this.

First make a batch of buns, let these Black Soul Beasts taste the flavor, then after thoroughly arousing their cravings, throw these buns into the hands of the Fire Spirit Tribe and Scale Stone Tribe people.

Then, in order to snatch food, these Black Soul Beasts will surely rush forward fiercely.

And the Fire Spirit Tribe and Scale Stone Tribe, completely unaware of the situation, will only think these Black Soul Beasts have gone mad, never imagining that the root cause is the buns in their own hands.

By leveraging the power of these Black Soul Beasts, at least we can disrupt the formation of the Fire Spirit Tribe and Scale Stone Tribe.

Then, taking advantage of the chaos, the Flame Martial Tribe people can start breaking out again, and the chance will be much greater.

Having to face the frenzied Black Soul Beasts snatching food and also block Ye Zhangqing and Qi Wu et al., the Fire Spirit Tribe and Scale Stone Tribe people will likely be overwhelmed.

And the most critical issue at present is whether these Black Soul Beasts can act as Ye Zhangqing envisioned.

If they refuse even to leave Black Mang Mountain, then we're done; thus Ye Zhangqing lacks confidence to guarantee this plan will definitely work.

He also hasn't kept it from Qi Wu and the others, after all this plan requires everyone's cooperation.

After hearing Ye Zhangqing's full plan, Qi Wu's eyes lit up; this idea is good—let these Black Soul Beasts deal with the Fire Spirit Tribe and Scale Stone Tribe people, good, good, good.

A steamer of buns was ready quickly; this time, Ye Zhangqing didn't leave any for Qi Wu and them.

Anyway, even if he left some, they probably couldn't eat it.

Casually throwing each bun to these Black Soul Beasts also counts as advance training, letting them develop a habit of snatching food early.

And these Black Soul Beasts are also excited about the buns Ye Zhangqing made.

One bun thrown over, they immediately snatched it up.

That's good news; knowing they will snatch is enough.

And a bun is almost in the blink of an eye swallowed into their bellies by these Black Soul Beasts.

That speed still leaves everyone watching in awe.

It seems these buns also suit the Black Soul Beasts' taste very well; that's fine, just fear insufficient appeal.

Having let these Black Soul Beasts taste the buns beforehand, they know it's good stuff.

Ye Zhangqing continued making buns, and this time the quantity should be greater.

Surely not all thrown at once; later each person will load a few, hide them, and when danger arises toss them out, naturally attracting the Black Soul Beasts to snatch, then seize the chance to escape.

Steamer after steamer of buns came out.

I don't know why, but these Black Soul Beasts anyway don't snatch Ye Zhangqing's.

As long as the food is in Ye Zhangqing's hands, not in others', these Black Soul Beasts have no intention to forcibly seize it.

Is this respect for the chef? Do these Black Soul Beasts understand that?

But this is good news; otherwise Ye Zhangqing's plan couldn't be carried out.

After all, if the buns are snatched as soon as they leave the steamer, what would we have left to throw? Throwing crap.

Roughly estimating the quantity is about enough, Ye Zhangqing took a pile of buns and headed toward the valley entrance.

And the Black Soul Beasts around, seeing this, had no hesitation whatsoever, and slowly followed behind.

Seeing this, Qi Wu and the others also made preparations, their eyes full of anticipation; so far, Ye Zhangqing's plan indeed looks promising, which is good.

All the way to the entrance, they did not go out, and behind them followed a large group of Black Soul Beasts.

Along the way, Ye Zhangqing casually threw some buns for these Black Soul Beasts to snatch, as a way to whet their appetites first.

I don't know how much these Black Soul Beasts can eat, but these few buns are obviously far from enough.

At this moment, looking at the people of the Fire Spirit Tribe and the Scale Stone Tribe outside, Ye Zhangqing, holding a few buns in his hand, seized the opportunity and threw them out forcefully.

A Fire Spirit Tribe member who had just passed by didn't even react before seeing a white, fluffy thing come flying out of the Black Mang Mountain Canyon.

It flew straight toward him, and almost instinctively he reached out and grabbed it; it was soft, not like any hidden weapon.

"What the hell is this thing flying into my hand?"
