36: Chapter 36 The Greed of a Hundred Beasts

The first light of dawn appeared.

Ten thousand rays of light rose from the east, spilling over the mountains and wilderness below, as if blowing a silent horn of the wilderness, and various sounds gradually awakened.

On the outskirts of the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range, in a valley, several tents stood, and eight beautiful figures and a group of chubby, sturdy tiger cubs walked out from them.

"Another beautiful day!" Spirit Deer stretched, calling out with a happy expression, her two antlers bathed in the morning sunlight.

Their temperaments were vastly different from those of previous days.

More than half a month of tempering had allowed them to grow significantly, including their respective offspring.

Returning to the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range allowed the beast nature hidden deep within their bloodlines to be activated; it had not been wasted.

The tall, slender Qingyi stood in the center of the camp, her gaze sweeping over the surrounding environment, her brows slightly furrowed.

She had felt that something was wrong for the past few days, and she had patrolled several times with her two sisters, but found nothing.

"Perhaps it is because Lord Bai has not returned for a long time, and I am worried." Qingyi muttered to herself.

The number of cultivators appearing in the past few days was much higher than usual, and there was no lack of Foundation Establishment stage cultivators among them.

If it weren't for her using illusions to hide the special features of her sisters, and that group of people not paying special attention, if something happened, relying on the two Chang Ghosts with Foundation Establishment strength might not necessarily be enough to protect them.

Since Lord Bai had entrusted the heavy responsibility of leading to her, she must not let everyone fall into danger and fail to live up to Lord Bai's trust and hope!

Qingyi let out a soft breath and withdrew her gaze.

"We can make our move. This woman has already vaguely sensed our presence. If we drag this out any longer, problems will easily arise!"

High up in a pile of rocks, five figures appeared out of thin air, and the leader said.

This group of people was the five disciples of the Hundred Beasts Sect who had come to spy before.

The leader was named Zhong Yi.

Before the five of them could move, two figures in the distant sky looked down, each stepping on a Green Feather Eagle.

The person on the left was an old cultivator with white hair and an ugly face, wearing a wide-sleeved blue robe embroidered with hundreds of ferocious birds and beasts, which were vivid and lifelike.

On the right was a middle-aged male cultivator, also wearing a Baishou robe, with a cold and arrogant expression.

The white-haired old cultivator said, "Brother Fan, those five are disciples of my Hundred Beasts Sect."

The middle-aged male cultivator said indifferently, "Hmm, it seems they are planning something."

The two of them descended.

Zhong Yi and the other four looked at each other, then went forward to greet them, bowing and saying in unison, "Disciples pay respects to the two Elders!"

The Hundred Beasts Sect had more than a dozen Foundation Establishment Elders, and they all recognized their faces.

The two who came were the white-haired old cultivator named Luan Xiong, and the cold-faced middle-aged man named Fan Zhan.

Luan Xiong nodded and then asked, "Why are you five lingering here?"

His eyes glanced intentionally or unintentionally towards the valley below.

Zhong Yi knew he couldn't hide it, so he had to tell the truth, saying, "We five disciples discovered eleven Platinum Fierce Tiger cubs and a group of half-demon women..."

But he didn't state their purpose.

Luan Xiong stroked his long beard and chuckled, instantly understanding the meaning of the disciple in front of him, and said, "Let Elder Fan and I take a look!"

After speaking, he walked forward.

Fan Zhan was also interested when he heard it was a Platinum Fierce Tiger, and looked down together.

At this time, Qingyi and the others also discovered them, and not knowing what their purpose was, they hid in the camp's formation and did not come out.

As leaders of the Qingqiu Fox Clan, the three of them—Qingyi and the others—had a lot of experience and recognized the identity of the two Green Feather Eagles at a glance.

The Green Feather Eagle was a famous ferocious bird.

The two Green Feather Eagles that had just landed had thick demonic power and a very strong sense of oppression; as expected, they were of the second rank.

There was no need to say much about the strength of the two cultivators who could step on them; they must be Foundation Establishment cultivators!

"These people seem to have malicious intentions. Relying solely on the two Chang Ghosts left by Lord Bai is probably not enough to deal with them..." Qingyi said to the others.

The others nodded with serious expressions, a trace of worry flashing in their eyes.

Bai Miaomiao thought for a while and said, "Did Lord Bai leave any way to contact him?"

Reminded by Bai Miaomiao, Qingyi thought of something and said, "If we send a sound transmission talisman to Lord Bai, if these people have malicious intentions, they will definitely intercept it! We can delay for some time and let the Chang Ghost go find Lord Bai!"

Bai Miaomiao, Feixue, and the others were happy to hear this, thinking it was a good idea.

However, Gu Qiu and Xi Chun were worried, saying, "But... with only one Chang Ghost, we cannot hold on for long."

Qingyi smiled and said, "Two sisters, do not worry. There is something I didn't have time to tell everyone.

Lord Bai sent back a Qi Refining stage Chang Ghost last night. Although it didn't bring back any information, it must be on its way back now.

We can send this Qi Refining stage Chang Ghost to find Lord Bai. When Lord Bai sees it, he will definitely guess something."

Everyone felt relieved.

Then, they pretended to be unconcerned for the outsiders above and started making breakfast in the camp.

Above the valley, Luan Xiong and Fan Zhan withdrew their gaze.

The former said, "If not for the juniors reminding us, if we hadn't observed the eight of them carefully, we really wouldn't have been able to tell that they were disguised half-demons.

And those eleven tiger cubs are indeed Platinum Fierce Tiger cubs... I really don't know how this group of half-demons found and tamed them!"

"This tiger's supernatural powers are good at attacking, and its bloodline can be considered top-tier. With our Hundred Beasts Sect's secret techniques, in a few decades, it will be another main combat force in battles!!"

"Brother Fan, are you tempted?" Luan Xiong asked with a smile.

Fan Zhan nodded slightly and said, "Yes."

"Good!" Luan Xiong said happily, then pondered silently in his heart.

There were eleven Platinum Fierce Tiger cubs in the valley below. If he and Fan Zhan took them all, it would be shameful if it got back to the sect.

It would be better to give one to each of the five juniors.

He and Fan Zhan could split the remaining six, and the extra two could be used to exchange with other Elders in the sect.

This way, he wouldn't even have to worry about the resources needed for cultivation!

Luan Xiong made up his mind and suggested, "Brother Fan, I think how about you and I each take three, and the remaining five be given to the five juniors?"

Fan Zhan thought for a while and nodded in agreement with Luan Xiong's proposal.

Zhong Yi and the other four behind them breathed a sigh of relief when they heard Luan Xiong's words.

They were also afraid that the two Elders would disregard their reputation and take all eleven Platinum Fierce Tiger cubs.

Being able to get one was enough for them!

Moreover, with two Elders of Foundation Establishment strength present, getting the Platinum Fierce Tiger was a sure thing, and they didn't have to worry too much.

"Thank you, two Elders!" Zhong Yi and the others said gratefully.

Luan Xiong waved his hand impatiently and jumped down into the valley with Fan Zhan.

The five followed closely.

Qingyi and the others' expressions changed drastically when they saw this.

Knowing they couldn't escape this calamity, Qingyi came forward and said, "May I ask your names?"

Luan Xiong snorted coldly and said, "Base half-demon race, are you worthy of knowing our names?

Quickly surrender and hand over the Platinum Fierce Tiger cubs! You might still be able to save your lives!!"

The six of them, including Qingyi, turned pale at these words.

Feixue and Spirit Deer could not stand being insulted, and their anger immediately rose.

Feixue bared her fangs, her two sharp little tiger teeth exposed, and her fluffy blue tail puffed up.

"You stinky..." Spirit Deer opened her mouth to scold him, but was stopped in time by Qingyi, "Sister, do not provoke this person..."
