“WIKI, bring up the map and set up the backup plan,” Ye Kai instructed calmly, showing no concern for Wolf Cypress and Lu Jiu standing nearby.
“Understood, Lord God!” WIKI nodded, waving her right hand as thousands of Nano Flying Insects scattered in an instant.
At the same time, Multifunctional Detectors began operating at full capacity. The moment the three-dimensional image projected by her appeared, Lu Jiu and Wolf Cypress were left dumbfounded.
Although they could also create a map, they had never imagined that someone could draw one so intricately, so clearly, and so realistically.
“Hey, hey, hey, what is this?” Lu Jiu curiously poked Wolf Cypress.
“How would I know!” Wolf Cypress replied impatiently, rolling his eyes.
He truly had no idea; not only did he not know, but he had never even heard of such a thing. However, that did not stop him from coveting this method or hoping to learn a thing or two from it.
But before half a minute had passed, Lu Jiu was fed up. A fierce expression crossed her face as she threatened with bared teeth and claws, “Whelp, are you looking for death? How dare you talk to me like that?”
Wolf Cypress was startled. He had come to understand a bit of this lady's temperament, but he was also a prince of the White Wolf Tribe. Bowing down like this would be quite undignified.
So, flipping his palm over to reveal a longsword, he looked seriously at the clawing girl beside him. “Are you afraid? If you want to fight, then let’s fight!”
Lu Jiu was nearly furious. Although she was young—only about three or four years old—her overwhelming strength made her formidable. Her long hair instantly transformed into countless Emerald Serpents that lunged toward Wolf Cypress.
Ye Kai was speechless. He turned to look at the now agitated girl and the obviously flustered Wolf Cypress, who was desperately trying to maintain his dignity. For a moment, he really wanted to slap both of them away.
“It seems you two will never coexist peacefully?” he said in a flat tone.
“As long as you understand,” Lu Jiu replied.
"Of course not! How could I possibly coexist peacefully with a Whelp!"
"What about you, Shorty?"
"Shut up! I'm just not fully grown yet, you little brat. I haven't even had breakfast today, so I'll use you to whet my appetite!"
Ye Kai suddenly smiled.
Boom!!!
The two figures moved simultaneously, leaving two craters on the ground. They appeared and vanished in midair repeatedly, and in just a moment, they had exchanged blows hundreds of times. They dashed far into a grove, and only then did the sound of air being shattered erupt from their previous battleground.
"Today is your day to die!!!" Even from a distance, Ye Kai could hear Lu Jiu's voice, which could only be described as the ultimate high-pitched screamer, cursing loudly.
...
Ye Kai plucked a Nine-Loop Grass and playfully flicked the slender stem with its circular black and white patterns. He laughed, "As expected, Girl, you're quite the wealthy one. Once I refine this into a pill, I’ll definitely treat you to a feast. It would be such a waste to eat it directly."
"Tsk tsk, this Nine-Loop Grass is definitely a top-tier treasure."
Upon hearing the praise, Lu Jiu's eyes immediately turned crescent-shaped with delight. She pounded her chest boastfully but suddenly froze. Her big eyes darted around suspiciously before she said slyly, "Uh oh, we need to hurry up; otherwise that guy will be back soon."
With that, she nimbly ran to the door and looked around but found nothing unusual. She waved her hand and swiftly dashed out of the inner courtyard. Ye Kai followed behind her with a strange smile on his face, accompanied by Wolf Cypress, and they quickly disappeared into a secluded corner.
Once they exited the garden, Ye Kai glanced back and shook his head in disbelief before turning his attention to the sneaky figure ahead. Noticing Wolf Cypress looking over at him, he cleared his throat and said, "Ahem, we still have some time; perhaps we can find some treasures. Stay calm, stay calm."
Wolf Cypress grinned and replied, "Oh please! I really like this girl; of course, I love her methods even more! Hehe!"
Ye Kai chuckled lightly, thinking to himself, traitor, oh traitor.
No wonder people say that even the strongest fortress cannot withstand internal strife... Hmm, how does it go? Ye Kai stroked his chin, deep in thought.
"The dam of Thousands of Corpses was breached by an ant hole!" Wolf Cypress remarked, following the figure ahead with a hint of emotion in his voice.
"Hmm?"
Ye Kai's eyes lit up. He hadn't expected this guy to possess some intelligence. However, he couldn't help but maliciously speculate whether this fellow was truly wise to admire a girl who was also an Ancient Fierce Beast. Was that really a good idea?
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but pat Wolf Cypress on the shoulder and gave him a meaningful glance, saying, "Buddy, I really don't know if your future path will be a blessing or a curse."
"Bad news!"
While Ye Kai and Wolf Cypress were chatting casually, suddenly a thought struck Wolf Cypress as he looked into the distance. There, a group of fierce-looking humanoid beasts with terrifying auras was approaching.
From the imposing demeanor of the leading figure, it was clear that the owner of this residence, which resembled a Suzhou garden, had returned.
The person wore blue garments with blue silk ribbons tied around his waist, from which hung two curved blades. A column of gray-black aura rose from his head, as if threatening to shatter the void itself.
Such characteristics matched those of the Tao Tie, a terrifying fierce beast that had once been associated with the girl Lu Jiu. Moreover, this creature had already reached the Refining Spirit and Returning to Void Stage.
Behind him were more than ten individuals dressed in various styles, their cultivation levels varying. Most exuded sharpness like unsheathed swords, radiating a chilling killing intent.
Among them were four elderly men whose auras were restrained yet potent, like swords sheathed in their scabbards. Once needed, they would erupt with terrifying force far surpassing those whose sharpness was openly displayed.
If they were human or other cultivators, their exposed sharpness could be likened to Vitality being scattered, making them vulnerable to external storms and erosion.
There is always a sharp edge that eventually dulls, succumbing to decay.
However, if it is the Sword Cultivator, then it is different.
But here, there are hardly any members of other races. Even if there are, to maintain such composure amidst the fierce beasts would either require being an unparalleled master or simply one of the Fierce Beast Tribe.
The four elders exuded an aura that suggested they were at least at the Peak of Nascent Soul Stage, capable of locking their own magical sword energy without any leakage. Only during battle would they unleash a dazzling brilliance.
It was clear that even if they were not pureblood descendants of the Ancient Fierce Beasts, they were among the most powerful of the fierce beasts.
Usually, they could conceal all their murderous intent and killing aura within, treating themselves as true treasure sheaths. It was only when they truly drew their swords that their killing intent would become even more ferocious.
The remaining dozen or so individuals shared a common trait: some wore long swords, others had blade whips hanging from their waists, and some carried battle axes or long spears on their backs. There was even one person holding a square halberd in hand.
Regardless of whether these weapons were sheathed behind them, held in hand, or hung at their waists, they all emanated an endless aura of slaughter and sharpness. Just looking at them gave one the illusion of being wounded.
"Eh!!!"
Suddenly, Ye Kai noticed that the girl, Lu Jiu, trembled and buried her head even lower, seemingly feeling very guilty as she wiped the cold sweat from her forehead and gulped nervously.
"What’s wrong? You seem very afraid of those last four people?" Ye Kai asked.
"Don’t look at them. Conceal your aura; absolutely do not release any presence. Never look at them; they are all lunatics..." The girl shrank back even further, practically hiding behind Ye Kai as she spoke anxiously.
Her demeanor clearly showed that she was terrified—not just afraid but genuinely fearful.
This fear was not merely personal pressure; it felt like a true terror between life and death!
"Could it be that these four fellows are the kings of the Fierce Beast Tribe?!"
Ye Kai saw Wolf Cypress curiously wanting to look over and immediately pressed him down with a slap, drawing a few characters on the ground with his finger: "If you want to die, I'll throw you out, and then I'll take Girl and run."
Wolf Cypress shivered all over, and the resentment he had just moments ago vanished without a trace.
After all, he had previously sought trouble with Ye Kai, but at this moment, what mattered most to Ye Kai was Girl. As for him, he had already reached a point where he was expendable.
If he didn't know better, he might really end up staying here forever or being torn to pieces by this group of fierce beasts!
After pointing at Wolf Cypress, Ye Kai carefully recalled the scene he had just witnessed. Those four didn't seem like living beings at all; even their sword sheaths were engraved with countless images of mountains of corpses and seas of blood.
It was simply unimaginable.
Typically, whether they were Sword Cultivators or other practitioners, anyone wielding a Flying Sword would adorn it or cultivate it to reflect their personality, character, or align with their cultivation Technique.
Yet these four individuals had an endless aura of ferocity emanating from their sword sheaths. It was clear that the Techniques they practiced were undoubtedly related to slaughter.
And anyone who practiced Techniques associated with killing shared a common trait: a terrifying aura of bloodshed, where there were no untouchable individuals beneath them.
Even fellow disciples or mentors were not exempt from being struck down by them.
The only prerequisite was whether there was meaning and certainty in wielding the sword.
If there was, then it was simply a matter of striking.
If not, then it could be ignored. If someone dared to chatter on, they would simply be met with a sword strike—whether they lived or died would be decided later.
The practitioners of the Path of Slaughter were indeed such a group of people.
No wonder Girl Lu Jiu was so frightened.
Ye Kai frowned and poked Girl Lu Jiu, whispering, "It's not safe here. We should move. There are still a few other places we can go to. Let's take what we can and leave immediately."
Lu Jiu's big eyes lit up, and she nodded eagerly; she didn't want to stay here for even a moment longer.
So many fierce beasts had gathered here, clearly to discuss how to punish the Witch.
This meant that the guards in other locations would inevitably become lax.
Especially since this place had been comfortable for so long, aside from a few individuals, no one had the habit of activating the Restrictions.
Thinking along those lines, the three of them couldn't help but smile with joy.
Such an opportunity was indeed rare.
