Chapter 230: High-Crowned Spirit Chief

"So that's how it is, I understand now!" Zhao Yuxin said excitedly, leaning against the rear window. "Ajiu, I think it's because we messed with those plants that the thick fog came to drive us away."

Zhu Zhiquan: "Hmm, based on the exchanges on the World Channel, the appearance of the thick fog is related to how we treat the plants."

Zhao Yuxin: "I remember before the thick fog chased us, I discovered a few plants running toward the depths of the jungle. I bet they must have been reporting back!"

"Maybe if we cause a scene in the jungle and find the plants that reported back, we might be able to find the boss behind it all."

Zhu Zhiquan: "Then what are we waiting for? I'll go kill a few more right now, then you're responsible for finding the ones reporting back, and I'll follow them to take out the mastermind!"

Zhao Yuxin: "Are you crazy! Is this hidden Demon really that easy to bully? What if you can't beat it!"

Zhu Zhiquan: "Impossible! How strong could a piece of trash that only dares to hide in the shadows be? Once I find it, I will definitely..."

Zhao Yuxin: "Enough! We'll talk about this later. In any case, you and Xuebao just get out of the way for now! I need to continue my research!"

Zhu Zhiquan immediately drooped his head, his eyes full of regret for not being able to spar with a master.

"Ugh, ugh..." At this moment, Xuebao held a rope and handed it to Zhu Zhiquan, wanting him to help make a swing.

Zhu Zhiquan took the rope and prepared to find a suitable place to make the swing, but just then... he saw a few Plant Monsters trembling, seemingly mocking their earlier disarray.

Among them were a few Ghost-Horned Tree Demons. Well, Xuebao wanted to swing, and he happened to be in a foul mood, so he might as well take it out on them.

So he entered the carriage, put on the Water Swallow Battle Armor, picked up the Xunfeng Crossbow, strapped the Five-Star Sword and Spirit Valley Longsword to his waist, and carried the necessary Arrow supply for the Xunfeng Crossbow on his back.

Three minutes later, the plants that had been mocking Zhu Zhiquan were beaten severely by him; some were even torn in half by Zhu Zhiquan, leaving only two Ghost-Horned Tree Demons to serve as the support points for the swing.

Under Zhu Zhiquan's threat, the two Ghost-Horned Tree Demons worked hard to provide Xuebao with a comfortable play experience.

The nearby Plant Monsters were also gathered together by Zhu Zhiquan immediately, making them stay there obediently, preparing to hand them over to Zhao Yuxin for research.

As for whether one of them ran away? That doesn't matter. After all, if that thick fog dares to come again, Zhu Zhiquan has decided he must find an opportunity to kill his way to the mastermind and prepare to take them out along with their boss.

But Zhao Yuxin was not happy. She grabbed Zhu Zhiquan's ear and questioned him: "Ajiu, didn't I say I wanted to do research! Why are you still provoking these guys!"

Zhu Zhiquan didn't speak, letting Zhao Yuxin scold him, but his eyes were once again filled with a thirst for battle.

Seeing him so stubborn, Zhao Yuxin knew this guy definitely wouldn't listen. She only hoped this guy wouldn't do anything dangerous.

"Forget it, I'll prepare for battle first. In case this guy starts acting crazy again, it'll be easier for me to fish him out." Zhao Yuxin held her forehead and returned to the carriage, muttering to herself.

Before long, that thick fog came again. During the previous chase, Zhu Zhiquan had roughly figured out the speed of this thick fog; its speed was about forty kilometers per hour.

If it weren't for the complex terrain here, Zhu Zhiquan guaranteed that this thick fog wouldn't even be able to see his exhaust!

"Ugh, ugh!!!" Seeing the fog coming, Xuebao issued a warning, causing Zhao Yuxin, who was busy researching, to run out angrily again.

"Ajiu, look, that thick fog is looking for us again! If you ask me... sigh! Where are you going!"

Before Zhao Yuxin could finish speaking, Zhu Zhiquan had already rushed toward the thick fog, and he even told Zhao Yuxin not to come up and help.

"Simply hopeless!" Zhao Yuxin helplessly called for Xuebao to enter the carriage, preparing to drive the Tricycle herself to see what this Zhu Zhiquan was up to!

Xuebao had only just started playing on the swing and hadn't had enough fun yet, but it had to run back to the carriage again, which made it feel very unhappy. But what of it? Anyway, when danger comes, it can only run away together.

The surrounding Plant Monsters watched Zhu Zhiquan rush toward the thick fog, each looking at him with pity, having already sentenced this two-legged beast to death in their hearts.

At this time, Zhu Zhiquan had already arrived within a hundred meters of the thick fog, after which he quickly climbed up a tree, using the Vines on the tree to speed up his movement.

The thick fog followed behind Zhu Zhiquan, with little difference in speed from Zhu Zhiquan.

Zhu Zhiquan ran while using the Xunfeng Crossbow to probe constantly, but most of them missed. However, Zhu Zhiquan didn't intend to count on these Arrows to achieve any results; after all, he couldn't see the opponent's specific appearance either.

These Arrows were just to try his luck and see what kind of reaction this guy hiding in the thick fog would have.

Watching Zhu Zhiquan being chased by the thick fog, the Plant Monsters were all restless; even those Plant Monsters guarded by the durian warriors were all agitated.

"Quiet!" Zhao Yuxin slapped the group of restless plants. The beaten plants let out whimpers, their eyes revealing ferocity. If it weren't for the two durian warriors nearby that they couldn't beat, they probably would have rebelled long ago.

"This Ajiu is really something, always thinking about challenging stronger existences. If he crashes and burns one day, I think he'll be perfectly willing!"

Zhao Yuxin clenched her fists and stared at Zhu Zhiquan. At this moment, Zhu Zhiquan not only had to play tug-of-war with the thick fog behind him, but there were also Plant Monsters he hadn't caught blocking him from all sides.

Yet, relying on his agile footwork and superb sword skills, Zhu Zhiquan cut down the troublemaking monsters. Every time the thick fog was about to catch up to him, he would step on his Five-Star Sword and fly, completely playing with the fog.

Conversely, the thick fog kept eating dust behind Zhu Zhiquan, but it didn't make any other moves. If there weren't other Plant Monsters helping, Zhu Zhiquan might have been able to circle behind this thing.

Anyway, Zhu Zhiquan wasn't in a hurry. While playing with it, he killed the Plant Monsters he encountered along the way one by one.

Perhaps realizing that it couldn't catch its opponent at all, the monster in the thick fog stopped chasing mindlessly and returned to its original form, preparing to go head-to-head with Zhu Zhiquan.

The massive thick fog slowly retracted, gradually transforming into a tree-person, its canopy blooming with red, orange, yellow, green, and blue flowers.

White soul fire burned in its eye sockets, its arms were thicker than a person's legs, and it stood nearly five meters tall, looking down at Zhu Zhiquan.

Name: High-Crowned Spirit Chief

Type: Demon, Plant Spirit

Introduction: A hegemon that hides in the depths of the Magic Miasma Jungle all year round, usually exploiting the weaker Plant Monsters in the outer layers to obtain prey for it.

However, it cares very much about face, so if anyone touches its underlings, it will come out to drive them away or kill them, and then they become a source of nourishment for it.

Looking at the information provided by the Nightmare Demon Eye, Zhu Zhiquan also became serious, and an excited smile appeared on his face.

Seeing the High-Crowned Spirit Chief appear, the Plant Monsters all let out joyful shouts, as if celebrating in advance the scene where this two-legged beast was about to be torn to shreds.
