Chapter 2861: Stupid to the Max

Ye Liuyun and Zhu Que acted together, each controlling a golden eagle. Then Ye Liuyun immediately captured the two golden eagles and sent them to Bai Hu.

The golden eagle clan waited for a long time, saw no sign of the two eagles that went to scout, and after they left there was no movement, so they promptly dispatched two more.

In fact, of those two golden eagles, one had already let out a mournful cry as a warning. However, Qiong Qi had set up a sound‑blocking barrier in the Formation. Those eagles lacked permission to control the Formation, so once they entered it, their sounds could not get out.

Not only sound, even the scent was blocked by the Formation, preventing the eagles outside from smelling anything inside.

This group of golden eagles has weak Divine Soul Power, likely lacking resources to refine their Souls, so Ye Liuyun and Zhu Que found it very easy to act. They quickly controlled six scouting golden eagles.

Meanwhile, that group of golden eagles kept sending out scouts.

"These golden eagles are really absurdly stupid, not seeing anyone return yet constantly sending out scouts!" Zhu Que chatted with Ye Liuyun while waiting.

But this time they waited a long while and no golden eagles appeared again.

It turned out that the golden eagles truly lacked intelligence; after sending out scouts a few times, they gradually forgot about it.

Ye Liuyun and Zhu Que, waiting inside the Formation, were also puzzled.

"Shall I call out again to test?" Zhu Que asked Ye Liuyun.

"Then give it a try. Make the call more wretched!" Ye Liuyun replied, letting Zhu Que try again.

So Zhu Que let out another mournful cry.

At that moment the golden eagles finally remembered that a bird had just called again. Then they continued dispatching flying eagles to scout.

This time Ye Liuyun and Zhu Que performed a Soul Search and discovered that the golden eagles had forgotten Zhu Que's call, not even caring that none of their own eagles had returned.

They have lived in the canyon for years, very safe, never having any ferocious beasts enter to bother them, so their vigilance is low. Not hearing the scouting eagles' warning cries, they assumed nothing was wrong, believing the eagles that had been sent out had swallowed Zhu Que and then gone elsewhere to hunt.

"We really ran into a bunch of idiots!" Zhu Que sighed.

【8】 He and Ye Liuyun easily captured a few golden eagles again, then changed tactics. Zhu Que donned the Invisibility Cloak and hid inside the Formation, while Ye Liuyun casually grabbed a ferocious beast from the Space World, placed it in the Formation as bait, and let it roar to continue attracting golden eagles for inspection.

He and Ye Liuyun easily captured a few golden eagles, then changed the routine. Zhuque donned the Invisibility Cloak and hid inside the Formation.

Ye Liuyun, on the other hand, casually captured a ferocious beast from the Space World, placed it in the Formation as bait, and let it cry out to continue attracting golden eagles to investigate.

The golden eagles indeed fell for the trap again, and several more came to investigate. The batches that arrived this time weren't even sent by the clan; they came on their own, thinking food was near, or happened to fly out hunting and spotted the beast in the Formation. Bi Qu Ku

Zhu Que is a bird; at first they were somewhat worried that a bird would come to contest their territory, but regarding ground‑running ferocious beasts they paid no heed.

Ye Liuyun and Zhu Que captured about fifty golden eagles in a single day.

"This method works well; just toss a ferocious beast into the Formation, no need to make a sound, and any that pass by will bite willingly!" Zhu Que told Ye Liuyun.

So they no longer needed the beast to make noise to lure golden eagles; they could just leave it there and wait for the eagles to come.

However, after night fell, more than fifty golden eagles did not return to their roost, alerting the Eagle King. Here, golden eagles usually come back to rest before dark.

Occasionally a few return late, but when such a large number fail to come back, something must have happened.

So the Eagle King directly dispatched over twenty golden eagles to scour the territory for the missing ones.

Over twenty golden eagles burst out of the canyon, startling Ye Liuyun and Zhu Que. Yet these mission‑bound eagles, even upon seeing the beast below, remained indifferent, formed a line and flew away.

"What urgent business do they have? They don't even want food?" Zhu Que asked curiously.

"Perhaps they noticed that so many eagles haven't returned and think something's wrong," Ye Liuyun guessed.

"What should we do?" Zhu Que asked Ye Liuyun: "If when they return they only send one or two golden eagles to snatch food, won't our Formation be exposed?"

"No problem. Even if our two Souls can't deal with them, we still have the Invisibility Cloak, so we can definitely escape. Let's first see how they react," Ye Liuyun said calmly.

Zhu Que nodded, fell silent, and waited quietly for the golden eagles to return.

Ye Liuyun's golden

pupils also kept staring at those golden eagles, noticing them circling a wide area three or four times, constantly emitting sharp cries to summon companions, but ultimately gaining nothing.

Their cries, Zhu Que recognized at once as a search for companions.

"They really did come out looking for someone!" Zhu Que told Ye Liuyun that his guess was correct.

Ye Liuyun laughed: "Fifty heads, not a small number, already a quarter of their clan; how could they not look?"

At this moment, that squad of golden eagles finally returned to the canyon.

One golden eagle could no longer resist the lure of food and lunged at the beast below. The other eagles ignored it, all rushed into the canyon and returned to report to the Eagle King.

That golden eagle, after charging into the Formation, was immediately seized by Ye Liuyun and captured right away.

"... That works too! These golden eagles' vigilance is truly poor!" Zhu Que couldn't help feeling sorrow for them.

Moreover, they waited a long time with no golden eagles returning to inspect. Throughout the night, no golden eagles emerged again.

"I think if you take the Magic Vine to ambush them, you might actually wipe them out completely!" Zhu Que, seeing the golden eagles so relaxed, thought Ye Liuyun could indeed eliminate them all with a single surprise attack.

"Capture them slowly; the remaining number is still too many! Anyway, this method isn't bad."

Ye Liuyun said, then swapped in another ferocious beast and moved it to a different spot, lest the same beast staying in one place raise the golden eagles' suspicion. Then Ye Liuyun and Zhu Que began to cultivate.

To their surprise, that night the beast bait failed to attract golden eagles, but instead drew a pack of green wolves.

The ferocious beasts nearby know golden eagles don't appear at night. So many nocturnal beasts come to this area looking for opportunities.

That pack of green wolves wasn't specifically hunting here; they intended to pass through the eagles' territory at night, planning to cross and kill ferocious beasts, then return before dawn, but they happened upon a ready beast.

However, the wolves were far more cautious than the golden eagles; after scouting the surroundings and finding no other beasts, they sent two wolves in to investigate.

Ye Liuyun saw a rare chance, removed the Invisibility Cloak and fought the green wolves that had entered the Formation, using them for practice.
