Protagonist:

Xu Zhangqing

Whimper~

Mournful howls rang out one after another, finally merging into a continuous chorus.

Whether Green-backed Wolves or Nightmare Demon Wolves, whether ordinary wolf monsters or Wolf Kings, facing Xu Zhangqing's Red Sun Piercing the Sun, they could only die in despair amid their struggles.

Wherever the five Fire Crows passed, everything was ignited; within a hundred meters it instantly transformed into a sea of fire.

Watching the blazing flames dancing before their eyes, whether Red Tiger or Ling Mo, or anyone else present, at this moment all were so shocked they could not speak, their eyes filled only with deep wariness.

"Th-this is a Nightmare Wolf King!"

"Dozens of Green-backed Wolves plus dozens of Nightmare Demon Wolves, and they actually couldn't beat five Fire Crows?"

"This Dao Friend Zhu's strength has probably reached Golden Core, right?"

No wonder Red Tiger and the others were letting their imaginations run wild.

A spell of this power, they had only ever seen on True Person Wang.

Seeing this scene, they all subconsciously believed Xu Zhangqing was also a Golden Core True Person.

Only an existence of this realm could remain calm and unconcerned when facing such a situation.

A Nightmare Wolf King with over five hundred years of Dao cultivation — Red Tiger and the others would have to join forces, even risk their lives, to have any chance of victory.

And they would absolutely be injured; this was obvious.

Yet now they saw that a monster as strong as a Nightmare Wolf King, facing what seemed like a casual strike from Xu Zhangqing, couldn't even block it.

Fur, turned to ash.

Skin, shattered in an instant.

Flesh, like charcoal.

Blood, evaporated in a breath.

No matter how many years of Dao cultivation, what status, what strength — before such terrifying high temperatures, they were as weak as ants on the ground.

Before long, only wolf corpses emitting a charred stench remained before the crowd.

Without exception, they had all been burned alive.

The life-and-death crisis was so easily resolved that Red Tiger and the others felt a bit dazed.

The five Fire Crows absorbed the surrounding flames into their bodies, preventing the fire from spreading further; along with this, the crimson flames on them gradually dissipated, and they soon returned to their original appearance.

Besides Ya Da, the other four rushed back into the sky, continuing to circle and fly.

Xu Zhangqing landed lightly, hands clasped behind his back, as if he had not acted at all just now.

Red Tiger and several team members exchanged a glance, then stepped forward: "Dao Friend Zhu... Senior, thank you for saving us once again; such great kindness cannot be repaid, we are willing to..."

Xu Zhangqing immediately waved his hand, cutting off what he was about to say: "It was a mere trifle; if you truly want to show gratitude, then help me dissect these wolf corpses — take every part that can be carried; when the time comes we'll split it nine to one, how about that?"

"Uh."

Red Tiger froze for a moment, already hearing the refusal in the other's words, and could only nod: "Alright, we'll do as you instruct."

Originally, he had thought of bringing several team members to seek refuge under Xu Zhangqing's door; even if they couldn't become disciples, being attendants would be fine.

That way they wouldn't have to risk their lives every day hunting monsters in the Black Forest.

But clearly, the other party simply didn't need them or looked down on them, so he could only settle for the next best thing.

To put it bluntly, you can't refuse a kindness offered.

So many wolf monsters, especially a Nightmare Wolf King — even though their hides and flesh were damaged, the core parts, especially the demon core unique to a five-hundred-year monster, were still very valuable.

All of this added up to no less than a thousand middle-grade spirit stones, if not several hundred.

Even with a nine-to-one split, it would be a huge profit for them.

Seeing this, Ling Mo and the others revealed envious eyes, also wanting a share of the spoils.

Unfortunately Xu Zhangqing acted too fast and his power was too strong; all the wolf monsters and the Wolf King died within a few breaths, and they simply didn't have time to act.

And the dissection work was no match for Red Tiger and the others, so they could only watch with greedy eyes.

By the time they finished, an hour had already passed.

Red Tiger and the others were exhausted, but their faces beamed with joy.

This harvest far exceeded their previous estimates.

I'm afraid Li Tie's Foundation Establishment Pill now has a prospect.

Xu Zhangqing asked faintly: "Can we go now?"

Red Tiger nodded repeatedly: "Of course!"

"Then let's go." Xu Zhangqing waved his hand urging them on.

The crowd dared not refuse and immediately hurried toward the gathering place.

This time, they encountered no attacks along the way; it was calm and peaceful.

When they arrived at the gathering place, they found the people inside were one-third fewer than yesterday evening.

It seems many people didn't stay here but went straight back to Dongqing City.

Seeing this, Red Tiger asked Xu Zhangqing's opinion.

Stay here overnight?

Or return to Dongqing City?

In fact, as long as they walked out of the depths of the Black Forest, there was almost no danger.

Xu Zhangqing didn't want to waste time here, so he nodded and said: "Resupply, we're returning to the city."

Chi Hu and the others immediately scattered.

Some went to replenish resources.

Some went to sell monster parts.

"I'm Leaving, so many Green-backed Wolves?"

"Not just that, there are Nightmare Demon Wolves too!"

"Unexpected, your Chi Hu Squad is so Powerful, looks like Dongqing City's Ranking is going to change!"

If it were ordinary selling, others Naturally wouldn't be surprised.

But This Time, the things Chi Hu and the others brought out were really too many.

Instantly causing everyone's shock and interest, they all came forward to examine and inquire.

Regarding this, Chi Hu glanced at the Left Side where Xu Zhangqing was resting with eyes closed, then said with Yi Si Shen Chang: "Our squad is usually just Low profile, did you really think we can't compare to those high-ranking Hunting Demon Teams?"

These words were a bit pretentious, but the Surrounding people couldn't Refute.

So many wolf Corpses placed in Front, this is the most Powerful Proving.

Quite a few Loose Cultivators listening, even had thoughts of Joining Chi Hu Squad.

A Powerful Hunting Demon Team not only Possesses stable income, but also higher Survival Rate.

For Loose Cultivators, especially Dongqing City's Loose Cultivators, Joining Hunting Demon Teams to hunt monsters is what they do their whole lives, and is currently the only Choice.

Chi Hu and the others' fox-assuming-tiger's-might pretentiousness, and the Surrounding people's reactions.

Naturally couldn't escape Xu Zhangqing's "eyes", but he didn't care, even feeling secretly pleased.

This trip out, besides refining the Spatial Earth Origin Fruit, was for the sake of showing off.

A cup of tea's time later, Xu Zhangqing and the others left the Juli, heading toward Dongqing City.

Along this road, especially Chi Hu's Five People were proud and pleased, smiles always hanging on their Lian Shang.

If they met acquaintances, they would even Actively Greet.

When nearly approaching Dongqing City, Chi Hu Immediately asked: "Senior Zhu, can we bring out the Nightmare Wolf King's Corpse?"

Xu Zhangqing instantly understood, Eyebrow Raise: "You want to swagger through the market?"

In Dongqing City there's an unwritten rule.

Whoever, or which Hunting Demon Team slays a powerful monster, can Choose to swagger through the market.

Doing so can attract more people's Monitor, thereby selling the things in their Shou Li faster and at higher prices.

Even possibly attracting Dongqing City High Level's attention, that is Wang Family people's attention.

If they can Join Wang Family, Chi Hu Five People's Status in Dongqing City will be higher, more people will find them for Tasks.

Of course, this also has a drawback: easy to be Targeted.

Targeting is secondary, Ambush isn't impossible either.

In Short, the moment Chi Hu Chose "swagger through the market", he was prepared to bear all consequences!
