Chapter 1484: Chapter 1396: Chu Yuanchen Submits
Ye Guichen quickly came up with a plan.
When Feng Wuxiu and the others arrived, Ye Guichen intended to let Feng Wuxiu sneak into the Northern North Desolation and try to hunt great monsters.
After all, Feng Wuxiu’s body had undergone a mutation, and killing him wouldn’t be easy.
By then, I could also sneak into the Northern North Desolation, and if possible, get a few more Demon Cores; breaking through to the Golden Core Realm would be a breeze.
Once chaos erupted in the Northern North Desolation, with a hundred thousand troops storming in to expel all the Demon Clan, I’m sure they would never dare to have designs on the humans of the Daqian Dynasty again.
On the other side, after Chu Yuanchen left angrily, Qi Fang quickly followed, "Brother Chu, the master sent us to discuss dealing with the Demon Clan, leaving like this, how will we explain it to the master when we return?"
Chu Yuanchen stopped and glanced back at Qi Fang, "Junior Sister Qi, tell me honestly, did Ye Guichen really kill the Wolf Demon alone and then force the Tiger Demon to become his mount?"
Qi Fang pressed her lips, her eyes shimmering with brilliance, and nodded vigorously, "It can’t be wrong. Brother Lu Ming was also there; we all saw it with our own eyes."
"Hmph! Saw it with your own eyes?" Chu Yuanchen sneered: "According to you, those three great monsters must be strong. Forget about confronting them alone; even our Xuantian Sect, except for the Sect Master, might not have anyone capable of such feats, right? As far as I know, there is no such master in the entire Daqian Dynasty, so why Ye Guichen?"
"Brother Chu, I’m not lying to you..." Seeing Chu Yuanchen’s disbelief, Qi Fang was anxious, but just as she was about to continue, she suddenly saw, not far away, a giant tiger crouching timidly on the ground, while in front of it, a small dog lay lazily.
The little dog looked extremely relaxed.
Qi Fang was stunned, pointing at the fierce tiger exclaimed, "Brother, look quickly, that, that is the Tiger Demon."
Looking in the direction Qi Fang pointed, Chu Yuanchen laughed mockingly, "What? That’s just a fierce tiger; how could it be the Tiger Demon? And if it were indeed a Tiger Demon, how could it be so respectful towards a little dog?"
The small dog wasn’t big, hardly larger than a palm, but each time it raised its head, the fierce tiger shivered, genuinely terrified.
Qi Fang had seen the Tiger Demon transform before; it was this giant tiger, she was very sure: "Brother, I’m not lying to you."
"Fine, since you’re so stubborn, I’ll go over and show you that it’s just a fierce tiger, not a Tiger Demon!" Chu Yuanchen strode towards the Tiger Demon.
People around who saw Chu Yuanchen knew he was from Xuantian Sect and did not stop him.
Chu Yuanchen approached the Tiger Demon and kicked its rear with his foot.
Being the great disciple of Xuantian Sect, Chu Yuanchen’s cultivation wasn’t weak, so dealing with a giant tiger was no trouble at all.
However, unexpectedly, once he kicked it, the Tiger Demon suddenly stood up, exuding a massive aura.
"How audacious, a mere cultivator trying to kick me!" The Tiger Demon turned abruptly, its tiger eyes glaring at Chu Yuanchen, speaking in human language, stunning Chu Yuanchen on the spot.
The Tiger Demon felt aggrieved.
The Four-eyed Dragon Scale Wolf had transformed into a puppy and occasionally made it scratch itches, utterly humiliating the tiger.
But the Tiger Demon also knew it couldn’t beat the Four-eyed Dragon Scale Wolf; not even the Scale Armor of the Dragon Scale Wolf could be bitten through.
Already very annoyed, when a young man kicked it indiscriminately, it was instantly furious.
However, it didn’t dare to kill anyone.
Otherwise, Ye Guichen wouldn’t even need to step in, the Four-eyed Dragon Scale Wolf could tear it apart.
But even so, it could still perform a little intimidation.
Seeing Chu Yuanchen startled and motionless, the Tiger Demon was quite satisfied.
But just as it felt pleased, it suddenly heard a roar from behind.
Then, the Tiger Demon only felt a chill down its back.
Chu Yuanchen swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
In Chu Yuanchen’s eyes, the small dog, originally lazing in the sun, suddenly jumped up and with a single slap struck the Tiger Demon.
The enormous body of the Tiger Demon fell to the ground with a thud, not daring to make a sound.
At this scene, Chu Yuanchen was completely dumbfounded.
From the moment the Tiger Demon spoke, Chu Yuanchen knew Qi Fang had not lied.
However, a small dog had toppled a Tiger Demon, and the Tiger Demon seemed utterly powerless to resist, or rather, did not dare to resist, leaving Chu Yuanchen feeling as if his eyes were about to pop out.
"Gulp."
Instinctively, Chu Yuanchen swallowed, rapidly retreating several steps.
He felt a chill down his back, realizing he’d broken out in a cold sweat from fright.
His expression turned extraordinarily complex.
He gave Qi Fang a deep look, said nothing, and then strode back to the camp tent they had just left.
Entering the tent, Chu Yuanchen saw Ye Guichen and suddenly clasped his hands in salute, "Mr. Ye, I was rude before."
Ye Guichen, puzzled, didn’t understand why the proud Chu Yuanchen had suddenly changed so much.
However, one doesn’t hit a smiling face.
Ye Guichen gently clasped Chu Yuanchen’s hands, "What do you mean by this?"
"Mr. Ye, I offended you earlier, and I apologize. Master told me to come here to discuss how to hunt great monsters with you."
Chu Yuanchen didn’t explain much, but his attitude had become incredibly earnest, even humble to the extreme, appearing to listen to Ye Guichen’s every word.
Qi Fang and another disciple who followed closely both showed astonishment at Chu Yuanchen being like this.
They knew how proud their senior brother was, almost never bowing down.
Yet today, it seemed as if the sun had risen in the west.
The other disciple didn’t quite understand what was happening, but Qi Fang knew that Chu Yuanchen probably believed her words now and realized just how powerful Ye Guichen was.
In her heart, she felt an inexplicable sense of relief.
Originally, Ye Guichen didn’t plan to join forces with Xuantian Sect, but seeing Chu Yuanchen express himself like this, he decided to share his thoughts: "In this case, the fewer of us, the better to avoid being discovered by the Demon Clan. By then, with the Tiger Demon leading the way, finding the great monsters’ lair shouldn’t be too difficult, but in my view, the hard part isn’t killing the great monsters, but how to retreat after doing so."
"Indeed, the Northern North Desolation spans for miles with highly complex terrain; once you get the direction wrong, you’ll easily get lost. At that point, it might be a matter of life and death." Chen Liangce also nodded.
The Northern North Desolation’s terrain is vast, and there are even rumors that the terrain sometimes changes.
For instance, a place that was once mountains could turn into a swamp, and the original grassland could become a desert.
No one has explained why the terrain in the Northern North Desolation changes like this, but animals have an instinct, seeming highly familiar with the terrain; even if it changes, they won’t get lost.
But humans can’t do that.
Humans don’t have animals’ natural vigilance; once lost, forget about getting out of Northern North Desolation. If discovered by that Demon King, escape would be impossible.
