“Was I set up?”
Lying sprawled across the backs of four Earth Dogs, Zhou You's thoughts drifted elsewhere.
One Earth Dog led the way, cautiously observing the surroundings.
The Mountain Chicken King had lived for at least one or two hundred years; after so many encounters, how could he not recognize the Sky Dog Clan's characteristics?
“No wonder the Old Man always said ‘chicken-hearted, chicken-hearted’—it’s truly damn thievish.”
Zhou You’s lips curved upwards, a playful smile on his face.
“He used me to get rid of the Sky Dog that was giving him a headache, then pretended not to know anything and took the blame for me.”
“If the Sky Dog Clan couldn’t discover this matter, then it would just be left unresolved. But if they truly cared about this Sky Dog, the Mountain Chicken King would definitely sell me out directly.”
“Or perhaps, this matter might become a handle for me.”
“Interesting, the demon beasts aren’t being reckless; they’re starting to use their brains, huh?”
Zhou You laughed aloud; it was truly too amusing.
As for fear, he wasn’t at that point yet.
Aren't Sky Dogs still dogs?
Don't they just have stronger power, higher status, and purer bloodlines?
It's nothing serious.
If it really doesn’t work, he’ll return to Zhenyu Pass!
Let the Old Man argue with them.
Zhou You rolled over, raised his Right Hand, and patted a dog’s head, “Keep the same speed; you’re going one fast, one slow, and it makes me very uncomfortable, okay?”
The four dogs howled, strutted forward with their heads held high, and moved rhythmically.
“Hey, good dogs.”
Zhou You lay flat again, gazing at the blue sky and white clouds, feeling utterly content.
“Woof!”
The leading Earth Dog barked wildly.
Zhou You tilted his head, looking in the direction the Earth Dog was barking.
On a tree by the roadside, a few monkeys stood, gazing out, even throwing wild fruits at the leading Earth Dog.
The leading Earth Dog roared furiously, and the four Earth Dogs carrying Zhou You couldn’t tolerate it either. Their formation immediately broke, and they charged forward, barking incessantly.
The monkeys chattered and continuously threw wild fruits.
Thud.
Zhou You, caught off guard, fell into the dust.
In the forest, more and more monkeys appeared, arrogantly throwing stones and wild fruits.
The five Earth Dogs were driven into a frenzy, their eyes bloodshot.
But alas, ground against air, they were powerless.
Zhou You stood up, covered in dust, his face grim, “In my life, I hate monkeys the most!”
They’re so damn annoying!
Before he finished speaking, stones and wild fruits rained down on Zhou You.
Zhou You continuously retreated but was still hit dozens of times.
The monkeys laughed uncontrollably, swaying back and forth, extremely brazen.
Zhou You gritted his teeth, his eyes flashing with ferocity, his Right Hand on the hilt of his sword.
Boom!
The moment the Serious Sword Drawing Technique appeared, a terrifying sword light sliced off the crowns of a large section of trees. As countless branches and leaves fell to the ground, blood also seeped onto the road.
The monkeys who miraculously survived shrieked in terror, scattering in all directions.
“Scream!”
Zhou You roared, “Keep screaming, why aren’t you screaming anymore?”
The monkeys in the jungle trembled, their eyes filled with terror.
They had always been the ones bullying humans and demons; how did it turn around today?
“If I don’t show my power, you really think I’m a dog, huh?”
Zhou You’s face was ashen, and his Right Hand pulled out a rotten fruit, bitten a few times, from his collar.
Zhou You took a deep breath, adjusting his mindset.
He didn’t like humanoid creatures, including animals.
Just very annoying.
It was fine if they didn't provoke him, but once they did, his anger would surge uncontrollably.
“All of you, scram.”
Zhou You spat, “You ruined my good mood. Do you believe I’ll wipe out your entire clan?”
All the monkeys bowed.
Seeing this, Zhou You snorted coldly, “Let’s go.”
The five Earth Dogs bared their fangs and obediently left.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
Instantly, the jungle trembled, and countless stones and fruits flew over.
Not only that, but even excrement was mixed in.
Even more, they defecated on the spot and then threw it over.
Continuous Sword Drawing Technique!
Killing intent boiled in Zhou You’s eyes. In an instant, sword lights intersected, shredding the jungle and cutting those monkeys into pieces.
The moment this wave of attacks subsided, the five Earth Dogs roared forward, pinning the monkeys who had miraculously escaped to the ground and biting through their windpipes.
The hunt began!
The Earth Dogs were incredibly ferocious. Facing these monkeys, whose power wasn't great and who had no time to return to the trees, they slaughtered them mercilessly.
In just a moment, except for those who ran early, the road was piled high with corpses.
When the Earth Dogs went berserk, it was truly astonishing.
After all, these were Fourth-Grade demon beasts!
Although their speed was a bit inferior to the Sky Dog, it was still not something these monkeys running on flat ground could compare to.
Clap.
The Earth Dog walked back and threw the corpse from its mouth in front of Zhou You.
Zhou You snorted coldly, stepping forward, “Let’s go home.”
The Earth Dog strutted with its head held high, wagging its tail and following behind Zhou You.
“Stop!”
A delicate shout rang out.
Zhou You turned and looked behind him.
Behind him were a man and a woman, both of striking appearance, dressed in brocade blue robes.
“Something wrong?”
Zhou You spoke coldly.
The woman angrily rebuked, “Monkeys are so cute, how could a scoundrel like you bear to kill them?”
The man echoed, “Exactly, exactly.”
Zhou You slowly said, “Scram!”
The woman was stunned, then cried out sadly, “Brother Yu, he’s being mean to me.”
The man drew his sword, “Kid, I’m giving you a chance to apologize.”
“You scram too.”
Zhou You said coldly.
The man was taken aback, “Kid, you probably don’t know who I am, do you? First, look at the clothes I’m wearing; this is the standard attire of the Blue-Clothed Sect.”
Zhou You said coldly, “Never heard of it.”
The man, instead, laughed, “Pretending not to know, are we? Our Blue-Clothed Sect will soon enter the top 500 sects of Kunyuan Continent. Is it useful for you to pretend not to know? Now, I’ll tell you again: apologize to her immediately!”
Zhou You scoffed, “Why should I apologize? These monkeys were chattering and annoying me. Whether I kill them or not is none of your business, is it?”
The woman reprimanded, “If you didn’t provoke them, how would they attack you? In this matter, you are at fault. Moreover, almost none of those monkeys are even Second-Grade; what kind of presence are you trying to find among them? You clearly look like a lowly commoner from a mountain village. Later, we’ll chop off his head and see if he can still be so arrogant.”
“Woof, woof!”
The five Earth Dogs spread out, staring fixedly at the two.
“Oh, quite intimidating.”
The man found it amusing, “First time seeing someone bring dogs here…”
He suddenly felt something was off; these dogs didn’t seem like ordinary hunting dogs?
But that person was clearly in the Fan Blood Realm?
Could it be…
This person isn’t ordinary?
The woman angrily rebuked, “Brother Yu, why waste so much talk on him? In front of him, chop all his dogs into pieces and see if he feels heartbroken!”
The five Earth Dogs’ might greatly increased, their fangs bared ferociously as they tightened their encirclement.
The man’s expression changed drastically. Blood qi swirled behind him, condensing into a python Blood Spirit. “Kid, I am from the Blue-Clothed Sect, and besides, it’s just a small quarrel; it’s not necessary to go this far, is it? You love dogs, she loves monkeys; we can completely agree to disagree.”
Zhou You said coldly, “Your strength isn’t good enough, yet you’ve managed to get this deep. I think you’ve truly been blinded by desire. This life is over; be more clear-headed in your next life.”
He spoke and raised his Right Hand, “Eat them!”
