Chapter 2330
The path in the forest was often used as a walkway, and the two paths were flat and smooth enough for carts to pass through.
At this moment, the group was sitting on a cart pulled by a puppet cow. When they saw the two pseudo-divine beasts blocking their way, they were startled.
The two pseudo-divine beasts were lying in the middle of the road. When they saw the group, they immediately stood up and stared at them.
The group looked at each other with strange expressions. The two pseudo-divine beasts were a black tiger and a leopard. They were clearly not of the same species, yet they were standing together.
"Roar!" "Roar!"
Two beastly roars sounded one after another, but they were only meant to intimidate. They did not show any hostility, nor did they reveal any killing intent.
"Could it be that we've encountered a beastmaster?" Xiu Qi could not help but reveal a shocked expression.
Beastmasters were existences that could control pseudo-divine beasts. They were existences that were much more advanced than puppeteers. In this world, only poison masters could compare to them.
Just like poison masters, beastmasters were extremely rare existences that were very difficult to encounter.
But if they weren't beastmasters, it would be impossible to understand why the two pseudo-divine beasts were blocking their way.
"That's right!
You're lucky to have met a great beastmaster!
If you know what's good for you, you'd better leave some money behind. Otherwise, you'll become food in the stomachs of these pseudo-divine beasts! "
At this moment, a cold voice sounded from behind the pseudo-divine beasts, but there was no one to be seen.
Evidently, they had encountered a robber blocking their way, and a beastmaster robber at that.
Xiu Qi and the other three revealed looks of disbelief on their faces.
How could a beastmaster lack resources and rely on robbing to make a living?
"No need to be so shocked. This is just my side business. It's just for fun, not my main business.
Everyone gets 655 drops of Sacred Source Liquid. No bargaining. Take it out and leave. Otherwise, die! "
The voice sounded from behind the two pseudo-divine beasts. It was not far from the group, but they could not see anyone. This scene was very strange.
Zi Chen released his perception and saw everything in front of him clearly. There was indeed no one behind the two pseudo-divine beasts. The source of the sound was only a white diamond-shaped stone.
A beast tamer who wanted to rob them, a beast tamer who had gone into hiding, actually asked for a hundred drops of Saint Source Fluid. Interesting.
The corners of Zi Chen's mouth curled into a cold smile.
After all, they were still Level 7 Hunters. After a brief moment of shock, the four of them finally regained their senses.
Those two pseudo-divine beasts were indeed very frightening, but their battle prowess was not strong. Through the perception of their auras, they were on par with the two-headed tiger they had encountered before.
However, everyone's strength was no longer what it used to be. They didn't put these two pseudo-divine beasts in their eyes at all.
Trying to rob them in such a way seemed laughable.
Zi Chen withdrew his perception. The master of the pseudo-divine beast was not within the range of his perception.
"Interesting." He turned his head and looked around, a strange light flashing in his eyes.
Xiu Qi looked at the two pseudo-divine beasts and said, "Friend, 655 drops of Sacred Origin Liquid per person is too much. Where would we find so much Sacred Origin Liquid?"
"Not a single drop less!" That voice was extremely tyrannical.
"Then let us see what tricks you have up your sleeves!" Xiu Jin gripped his longsword tightly and said with a cold expression. Clearly, he wanted to compete.
"Then die!"
Following this cold voice, the two pseudo-divine beasts roared and charged at the four of them.
"Die!"
Xiu Qi and Xiu Jin shouted at the same time and charged forward with their longswords in hand.
Behind the two of them, Xiang Xuan's eyes flashed.
She first glanced at the black tiger, only to see that the black tiger's movements slowed down slightly, and its speed slowed down.
Pfff!
The longsword instantly pierced through the black tiger's head. The black tiger's body froze in midair and its vitality dissipated.
Then, Xiang Xuan glanced at the leopard. The leopard's body also froze. Xiu Jin quickly attacked and killed the leopard.
These two pseudo-divine beasts, which weren't considered weak, were killed by the three of them just like that.
Zi Chen stood at the back and quietly watched the two kill the pseudo-divine beasts. He didn't make a move, nor did he say anything.
When Xiang Xuan and Tang Pu saw the dead pseudo-divine beasts, they immediately went forward to check. The four of them stood beside the corpses at the same time.
Swish! Swish!
At this time, a black light flew out from Zi Chen's sleeve. It flew around the ground and returned to his sleeve.
The four of them couldn't see anything from the corpse of the pseudo-divine beasts. Then, they went forward again and saw a strange white stone at the place where the pseudo-divine beasts were standing before.
"The sound came from here?" Tang Pu looked at the stone and asked in puzzlement.
"This should be the sound transmission stone. The beast tamer is not here." Xiu Qi picked up the stone.
Zi Chen followed behind and slowly went forward. He released the perception that he had just retracted.
He didn't go straight to the stone. Instead, he went in the direction where the flying knife had swept.
There, he saw a small snake that died like weeds. It was only seven inches long. It had fallen dead in the weeds with a fatal wound on its head.
In another direction, there was a similar snake.
Just when the four of them were sizing up the stone, they heard a cold voice from the stone, "I will remember you. We will meet again."
This sentence was obviously wrong. It should be 'you', not just 'you'.
Because it was Xiu Qi and Xiu Jin who killed the two pseudo-divine beasts. Could it be that the other party felt that it was because of Xiang Xuan's ability that he bore a grudge against her?
But even without Xiang Xuan's ability, they could still kill the two pseudo-divine beasts. After all, they were all second rank hunters.
Just when the four of them were guessing why the other party said such a wrong sentence, they saw Zi Chen walk to their side. He took the sound transmission stone from Xiu Qi's hand and said indifferently, "If you are an enemy, the next time we meet, the one who will die will be you."
"Then let's wait and see."
After that, the sound transmission stone became silent. Its luster gradually dimmed, and it became like an ordinary stone.
Zi Chen put the sound transmission stone into his bosom. He didn't throw it away.
Xiu Qi asked doubtfully, "Zi Chen, what's going on?"
"Maybe it has something to do with the Huo Te family." Zi Chen said.
"The Huo Te family? Could it be that they have their eyes on us?" Xiu Qi's expression changed slightly.
"It should be. Even if it isn't, this person isn't easy to deal with. You guys almost died just now."
Seeing the four confused people, Zi Chen pointed in two directions behind him and said, "Let's go there and take a look."
When the four of them saw the dead snake, their expressions became very ugly. "This is a Blue Dark Snake. That damned guy is so cruel!"
The Blue Dark Snake was a poisonous snake. Its skin could change color, and the poison in its body was even more intense than the Tri-Colored Poison Mist. Although it was only a first rank pseudo-divine beast, its poison was enough to kill a second rank hunter.
Previously, the four of them hadn't sensed that there were two of these snakes hiding in the dark. If Zi Chen hadn't acted in time, they would have been ambushed by the Blue Dark Snakes while they were investigating the two pseudo-divine beast corpses. They would have died from the poison.
They hadn't even reached Mingfei Town, yet they had already encountered such a troublesome existence. This made their expressions even uglier.
"Let's go!" Zi Chen said as he looked at the four people's ugly expressions. His expression didn't change much.
Even if this matter wasn't arranged by the Huo Te family, it definitely had something to do with them. He had already mentally prepared himself for this.
Otherwise, the other party wouldn't have demanded an exorbitant price of a hundred drops of Sacred Source Liquid each.
If they weren't a shopkeeper, who could take out so much Sacred Source Liquid?
"I'm not leaving. I'm going to eat them!"
Tang Pu said angrily as he stared at the two dead pseudo-divine beasts.
Thus, the five of them stopped for a short while and ate a sumptuous meal of roasted meat. It could be considered as a way to get over the shock of surviving a calamity.
After eating and drinking their fill, they continued on their way.
...
...
Mingfei Town was obviously larger than Sohui Town. The surrounding walls were also higher, and the town had two main gates, one east and one west.
At this moment, there was a young man in luxurious robes walking towards the east gate with anger. His expression was very ugly.
"Lin Sai, why do you look so dejected?" A voice suddenly sounded as another young man walked out of the town.
"I'm so pissed off. I had a bad day and lost two Green Dark Serpents," Lin Sai said with dissatisfaction.
"Oh? What happened?"
"A guy in black robes discovered my Green Dark Serpents and used some unknown method to kill them.
If I'm not wrong, that guy should be your target, "Lin Sai said somewhat angrily.
"He's already here?
Since that's the case, you don't have to worry about this. I'll handle it. "A cold glint flashed across the young man's eyes.
"Although we didn't fight head-on, I can see that guy's senses are very sharp. Tuhr, you need to be careful. Don't fail miserably!"
"Don't worry!
It's easy for a level three to kill a level two! "
Tuhr walked out of the town while Lin Sai walked towards the center of the town. The two parted ways.
A few hundred meters away from the town, two middle aged men were watching the two young men talk. One of the middle aged men said, "Tuhr clearly intended to use Lin Sai to scout the situation. What do you think of this?"
"He's already joined us. His potential isn't bad. Plus, Lin Sai agreed to this himself.
As long as it doesn't affect our interests, we'll let it go. "
"Looking at Lin Sai's expression, he obviously suffered a small loss. What if Tuhr fights that guy and can't beat him?"
"Lin Sai isn't stupid. He's just going for fun.
It's just a level two hunter. Tuhr should be able to take care of it.
If he can't even take care of a level two hunter and gets killed instead, then so be it.
I'm sure even the Hort Family won't say anything after this. "
"That's good. Looks like we'll be able to see a big battle."
