150: Chapter 150 The Fiery Vajra Ape Re-investigates Jianghai City (Part 1)
"Rest assured, if the information you brought back is true, then I will agree to your conditions."
"What use is your human tomb to us Evolved Beasts?"
The World-Destroying Dark Fang Bear said slowly, and the man's face lit up with joy, and he hurriedly added, "Then let me congratulate the Bear King in advance on being able to take that step and completely embark on the path of transcendence."
Upon hearing the man's words, a hint of joy also appeared on the face of the World-Destroying Dark Fang Bear; it felt that this human culture of flattery was quite good, and it enjoyed it very much.
Meanwhile, the Steel-Bone Light-Devouring Rat looked at the human man with some resentment. Although they would gain the most from this plan, the Spirit Stone Mine in the Great Mountain was currently withered and dry, and they were in urgent need of replenishment from Jianghai City.
There is a good saying among humans: when you are sleepy, a pillow appears.
However, it always felt that this matter was not that simple. Humans are so treacherous; why would they tell them about such a good thing, and all for the sake of The Great Tomb?
There is another good saying among humans: when a weasel greets a chicken for the New Year, it has no good intentions.
"Bear King, I think this matter still needs to be discussed carefully."
"Jianghai City can be broken, but for The Great Tomb, perhaps we should wait and see the situation before making a decision."
Said the Steel-Bone Light-Devouring Rat. Its original form was a rat, but now it possessed a massive body of several tens of meters. Its greatest strengths were its pair of indestructible sharp claws and teeth, as well as its incomparable speed.
It was precisely because of this that it was able to firmly secure the third seat in this Great Mountain.
Upon hearing the words of the Steel-Bone Light-Devouring Rat, a flash of ruthlessness crossed the man's eyes, but it vanished in an instant, and no one noticed.
The hatred in his heart for the Steel-Bone Light-Devouring Rat had reached its Peak. This damned Steel-Bone Light-Devouring Rat had been blocking him, and this was not the first time.
He had already made up his mind; after seizing The Great Tomb, obtaining the items inside, and awakening that person, the first one he would kill would be the Steel-Bone Light-Devouring Rat.
To vent the hatred in his heart.
Did they really think he was so kind-hearted as to watch the Spirit Stone Mine in Jianghai City be handed over to others? He was merely utilizing these big brutes in front of him.
"I, the Bear King, have already promised them; how can I go back on my word?"
"Do not mention this matter again for now."
The World-Destroying Dark Fang Bear said slowly, suppressing the Steel-Bone Light-Devouring Rat's opinion, and the Steel-Bone Light-Devouring Rat could only nod.
However, in a scene that no one noticed, a flash of disdain crossed the depths of the World-Destroying Dark Fang Bear's eyes; perhaps only it knew what it would ultimately do.
Not long after, the Burning Fire Vajra Ape appeared here.
However, the current state of the Burning Fire Vajra Ape exceeded the expectations of everyone present, and upon seeing the man, the Burning Fire Vajra Ape could not control the anger in its heart.
It swung its True Martial Staff and smashed it fiercely toward the man.
"Human, you lied to me!"
A terrifying power poured out, as if it wanted to smash the man to death.
The man had originally been all smiles, but as this scene unfolded, he could no longer smile; he had not expected the Burning Fire Vajra Ape to act so suddenly.
This staff strike was not something easy to endure.
He erupted with his full strength and dodged to the side in the distance, while hurriedly speaking.
"When did I lie to you?"
The man's strength was also extremely powerful; although it was not quite on par with the Burning Fire Vajra Ape, it was not far off. Seeing this scene, the expression of the World-Destroying Dark Fang Bear darkened.
Although, given its black bear skin color, it was hard to tell if it had darkened or not.
"Third Brother, stop!"
As the World-Destroying Dark Fang Bear spoke, an even more powerful force appeared. The World-Destroying Dark Fang Bear slowly extended a hand and caught the True Martial Staff that had been smashed down fiercely.
"Explain clearly, what exactly is going on?"
"How did he lie to you?"
"Is it that there is no Spirit Stone Mine in Jianghai City?"
The World-Destroying Dark Fang Bear asked hurriedly. It cared more than anyone about the authenticity of the Spirit Stone Mine. If this information was false, it wouldn't need the Third Brother to act; it would kill this human in front of it itself.
"That's impossible; I am certain that Jianghai City has a Spirit Stone Mine."
The man who had dodged to the side hurriedly spoke up.
"I hadn't even entered into Jianghai City."
"Originally, when I fought with the City Lord of Jianghai City, he was no match for me. Just as I was about to kill him, a more powerful human suddenly appeared."
"He didn't even make a move; merely his aura alone forced me back."
"That person's strength was even greater than the Bear King's. If it weren't for the fact that I, Old Ape, was lucky and that person didn't have the intent to kill, I wouldn't have been able to return."
"Human, and you still say you didn't lie to me."
"Didn't you say that in Jianghai City, only the City Lord was the strongest?"
The Burning Fire Vajra Ape roared, becoming more and more furious as it spoke, almost unable to resist attacking. Upon hearing this, the man was suddenly stunned, a trace of disbelief in his eyes.
"That's impossible; the City Lord is the strongest in Jianghai City, and he is no match for you."
"How could there be other experts!"
What the man didn't understand was that he knew full well the terror of the World-Destroying Dark Fang Bear, which was only one step away from that step. He knew of one person who was stronger than it.
But that person could not possibly be in Jianghai City.
Upon hearing the words of the Burning Fire Vajra Ape, the World-Destroying Dark Fang Bear also looked at the man. Between the Burning Fire Vajra Ape and the man, it undoubtedly believed the former.
"Do you think I would intentionally lie to you!"
The Burning Fire Vajra Ape hissed. It had almost died in Jianghai City, and this kind of anger could not be dispelled by a word or two.
Cold sweat appeared on the man's forehead; he felt three terrifying killing intents descend upon him.
What on earth is going on?
Could it be that there really is an expert who has achieved a Breakthrough to the Fourth Order in Jianghai City? But if that were really the case, why wouldn't they flatten the Great Mountain? Even when facing the attack of the Burning Fire Vajra Ape, they only intimidated it and scared it away.
Thinking of this, a flash of inspiration struck the man's mind. He thought of something and hurriedly spoke up.
"I know."
"The people of Jianghai City are lying to you. If there really were such an existence, why would they let go of such a good opportunity and not keep you here?"
"They even let you return unscathed."
"If there really were someone as powerful as you say, who in the entire Great Mountain would be their opponent? Would they still let you all continue to stay here?"
"Therefore, I can be certain that this person does not exist at all."
"They deceived you."
The man's voice caused the three overlord-level Evolved Beasts to fall into deep thought. The World-Destroying Dark Fang Bear nodded slightly; the man's words made sense, and the Burning Fire Vajra Ape's anger escalated once again.
It was not stupid; after being enlightened by the man, it suddenly realized the truth.
If that expert really existed, how could they have let it return? So, Jianghai City was really lying to it!
"Wanting to know what is really going on is simple: it is to go to Jianghai City once more."
A sharp glint appeared in the man's eyes, and he said slowly...
