“Of course, to hunt spiritual beasts!” Ye Wushuang smiled and said, “In the Hundred Nations’ Martial Contest, the seven strong seats are determined by spiritual values. Time is pressing, and I don’t have time to stay here and nurse your injuries!”
He had rescued Su Jinyue because he wanted to ask about the Lingjian Pavilion. Naturally, it was time to leave now.
Su Jinyue couldn’t help but feel a bit frustrated inside. Wasn’t it obvious that she was a beauty? This guy seemed to lack any appreciation for beauty.
“My injuries are almost completely healed!” Su Jinyue stood up, her beautiful eyes looking at Ye Wushuang earnestly, “Would you… be willing to cooperate with me?”
“Cooperate?” Ye Wushuang looked Su Jinyue up and down and couldn’t help but say, “Although your appearance is stunning, being at the seventh level of the Yuanfu Realm… it’s a bit lacking in strength.”
As soon as these words were spoken, Su Jinyue felt a surge of anger.
“You are only at the sixth level of the Yuanfu Realm yourself.”
“That’s true, but you saw clearly how I killed those people earlier,” Ye Wushuang said directly, “Although I am at the sixth level of the Yuanfu Realm, there may not be anyone at the Yuanfu level who can defeat me!”
Su Jinyue immediately said, “I didn’t lose to Du Ruyun, Du Rufeng, and the others, but was chased by Du Mingxing, Du Mingyue, Gu Ruochen, Feng Chengyu, and Feng Yanran. These people are not weaker than some of the prodigies from the Seven Great Sects…”
Feeling belittled by Ye Wushuang, she naturally felt不服气 (unconvinced/resentful).
“What do you mean by cooperation, then?” Ye Wushuang stopped and asked.
Su Jinyue quickly said, “In this branch of the Youlong Mountains, spiritual beasts are also divided into areas according to their ranks. The ones you have hunted in the past few days should all be second-rank spiritual beasts, right? You haven’t encountered any third-rank spiritual beasts, have you?”
Ye Wushuang nodded.
“Third-rank spiritual beasts all have the strength of the Tiangang Realm. How could they live in the same area as second-rank spiritual beasts?” Su Jinyue continued, “I know which areas have third-rank spiritual beasts, and moreover, the living areas of low-level, mid-level, and high-level third-rank spiritual beasts are different. I can take you there.”
“If the two of us cooperate, it should not be difficult to hunt low-level third-rank spiritual beasts.”
Ye Wushuang looked at Su Jinyue with a skeptical expression.
Su Jinyue said indignantly, “I am from Lingjian Mountain, one of the Seven Great Sects, and I have some rare treasures that can greatly enhance combat power.”
Su Jinyue had never expected that when she wanted to cooperate with someone, she would be doubted like this. After all, in Lingjian Mountain, countless geniuses wanted to team up with her, but she had always refused!
And yet, this young man in front of her actually looked down on her!
How unreasonable!
Ye Wushuang looked at Su Jinyue and then said, “Lead the way!”
“Are you agreeing to cooperate with me?”
“Hurry up and lead the way. I don’t like to waste words.”
“What a spoilsport.”
The two figures immediately left the valley.
Su Jinyue led the way, and along the way, they encountered some second-rank spiritual beasts gathering. Ye Wushuang casually dealt with them, earning spiritual values.
After half a day, the two stopped in front of a mountain range forest.
The mountains before them appeared more majestic than the surrounding ones, and the vitality within the forests seemed sparser.
“This is the place!” Su Jinyue tightly gripped a black dagger in her jade-like hand and whispered, “Be careful, there are quite a few low-level third-rank spiritual beasts gathered here.”
“We’ll look for the ones that prefer to live alone. If we encounter a group, remember to run quickly.”
“Okay.”
The two entered the dense forest and soon discovered several cave openings at the foot of a high mountain.
Each cave entrance was ten zhang (a traditional Chinese unit of length) high, and around the openings, many spiritual plants were growing.
Third-rank spiritual beasts, with the strength of the Tiangang Realm, are not unintelligent. They naturally have some unique preferences when choosing a place to live.
“It’s the territory of the Gale Spirit Lion!” Su Jinyue whispered, “The Gale Spirit Lion is a low-level third-rank spiritual beast, with strength ranging from the first to third level of the Tiangang Realm. You lure the enemy, and I’ll take the main attack!”
“I’ll take the main attack…” Ye Wushuang couldn’t help but say.
“I will!” Su Jinyue’s delicate eyes stared at Ye Wushuang, her tone leaving no room for argument.
Having been belittled by Ye Wushuang, she now wanted to prove her strength!
Ye Wushuang shrugged and didn’t say anything.
Su Jinyue then took out two black spherical stones, the size of ox eyes, and handed them to Ye Wushuang, saying, “Hold these two Black Thunder Pearls and lure the Gale Spirit Lion out of the cave. Once you throw them, they will at least cause serious injuries. I’ll then attack, and you just assist me from the side!”
“Alright!”
With that, Ye Wushuang tightly gripped the two Black Thunder Pearls and walked step by step towards the cave entrance.
Hu hu…
Low, heavy breathing sounded at this moment, and a heart-chilling aura burst forth.
At the cave entrance, a pair of deep, dark eyes shot out a cold light.
The Gale Spirit Lion, towering at seven or eight zhang in height, had huge paws like fans. Each step it took exuded a terrifying pressure.
And there was not just one!
Three Gale Spirit Lions, sensing the讨厌 (disliked) human presence approaching, all emerged from their respective caves.
Upon seeing a human youth standing at the cave entrance, the three Gale Spirit Lions all looked at him with contempt in their eyes.
Ye Wushuang looked at the three Gale Spirit Lions, feeling the fierce pressure from the spiritual beasts, and raised an eyebrow.
He then threw the Black Thunder Pearls directly.
