Chapter 66: Kill on Taoshan

Zhou You left.

Because he didn't like to see Yao Beasts eating people, even if they were people who didn't respect him.

So, he chose not to look.

Strictly speaking, Zhou You didn't have a true definition of good or bad in his heart.

If you don't respect me, I can just laugh it off. But if you continue to be excessive and provoke me, then I will kill you and consider you a bad egg.

As for how he felt…

He felt nothing at all.

Wasn't it just killing two people?

Zhou You suddenly felt a bit bad, and a bit cruel.

Not long after, five Earth Dogs caught up from behind, each with blood dripping from their mouths, and though they were injured, it was only superficial, not reaching their bones.

For Yao Beasts, injuries were commonplace.

One Earth Dog ran past Zhou You for a distance, rolled in the dust, then lay on the ground, wagging its tail to indicate it wanted to carry Zhou You.

Zhou You's gloomy mood was swept away, and he burst into laughter, "Good dog…"

Bang!

A giant rock the size of a house fell, directly smashing that Earth Dog into the ground.

Smoke and dust billowed, and dirt clods flew.

The remaining four Earth Dogs quickly surrounded Zhou You, ready for battle.

Zhou You looked at the giant rock so close by, the smile on his face completely frozen, turning cold and intimidating.

A fishy Qi spread, so pungent it was nauseating.

Not far away, four two-meter-tall golden monkeys looked over, a hint of surprise in their eyes, because they had missed their target.

These were four fifth-grade golden monkeys!

Crack, crack, crack…

Zhou You gritted his teeth, making a cracking sound.

Unforgivable!

Completely unforgivable!

The moment he shifted his gaze, the four golden monkeys retreated in fear.

How sinister and intimidating was that gaze?

"You…"

"You've really pissed me off."

Zhou You's tone was chilling.

The four golden monkeys exchanged glances and quickly ran towards the distant jungle.

The four Earth Dogs were about to charge forward when Zhou You coldly shouted, "Stand down."

The Earth Dogs obediently retreated behind him.

Clang!

In the world, the sound of a sharp sword being unsheathed rang out.

Super Serious Sword Drawing Technique!

The sword light, a hundred meters long, surged forward like a tidal wave, devastating everything in its path.

Three golden monkeys were instantly cut in half at the waist, while one, quicker to dodge, only had a patch of fur shaved off its head.

The golden monkey shrieked and fled in terror, transforming into a streak of light.

Zhou You didn't pursue, "Remember its scent."

The Earth Dogs bared their fangs, having fully memorized it.

Zhou You turned to look at the giant rock, reaching out to touch it, but ultimately choosing to do nothing.

That Earth Dog was only fourth-grade; under this house-sized rock, it died instantly.

The demon slayer token flew out, absorbing the demon soul.

Zhou You lost his mood, and with a cold face, he led the four dogs back to One-Blade Gorge.

Dog barks were incessant, excited for the Dog King's return.

"Dog Fugui."

Zhou You spoke coldly.

Sensing Zhou You's mood was off, all the Earth Dogs sat obediently in place, staring eagerly at Zhou You.

Dog Fugui rushed out, "Canine Emperor."

"Today, my original intention was to go out and play."

Zhou You said coldly, "But I lost a good brother."

Dog Fugui quickly said, "In the Yao Race, death is a common occurrence, Canine Emperor, please don't take it to heart."

For him, such things were commonplace.

The previous Dog King had only just passed his first seven days, so this was nothing at all.

Zhou You looked at Dog Fugui, "I said, I lost a good brother."

Dog Fugui's heart trembled, "Yes!"

Zhou You's gaze swept over the vicinity, "I am a very simple person; if you respect me, I will protect you and treat you as brothers. But today, I was provoked for no reason, and it caused a brother who respected and revered me to die tragically before my eyes. I ask you, should this grudge be avenged?"

All the Earth Dogs looked at each other.

Zhou You roared, "Should it be avenged!"

The Earth Dogs all raised their heads and howled.

Dog Fugui said in a deep voice, "As per the Canine Emperor's command, those who killed my brother, even if they die and their Dao dissipates, they must pay for their blood debt!"

His heart couldn't help but stir; from birth until now, this was the first time he had truly been treated as a dog!

A dog regarded as a brother!

"Good!"

Zhou You took out his Sand Dagger and raised it high, "Assemble immediately, kill all the monkeys!"

One-Blade Gorge was stirred; this assembly would leave behind the mother dogs giving birth and some older dogs.

An hour later, a full two hundred Earth Dogs of third-grade and above had assembled.

Zhou You let out a long howl to the sky; the four guard dogs from before led the way, as they needed to follow the scent to find the golden monkeys' lair.

Zhou You rode on Dog Fugui's back and shouted sternly, "Anyone who obstructs us, no need for reasoning, just kill them all!"

Dog Fugui barked and followed closely behind the four guard dogs.

Dust and smoke billowed, the pack of dogs galloped, stirring up fearsome winds.

Wherever they passed, beasts fled, birds soared into the sky, all in utter panic.

Such a lineup was a small beast tide.

A foraging wild wolf noticed the situation and quickly ran away.

In the shadows, there were also solitary Yao Beasts peeking, even tiger-type Yao Beasts at this moment dared not act rashly, only able to slink away and hide, fearing they would become the target of this pack of mad dogs.

At this moment, the Earth Dogs also displayed their unique speed.

"Canine Emperor, I know a bit about the golden monkeys in this area."

Dog Fugui explained while galloping, "A hundred years ago, a seventh-grade Peak Golden Crown Monkey King was born in the golden monkey tribe. This monkey's personality was already arrogant and perverse. Even before our Yao Race attacked Human Race towns, this group of monkeys was very rampant. They often sneaked into Human Race villages and stole infants from their cradles to eat. Of course, our Yao Race was also often harmed by them; countless infants were eaten by them. Although these guys are generally not strong, their movements are agile, and they unite like the Human Race. Even powerful Tiger Clan and Bear Clan are unwilling to provoke them easily."

Zhou You said coldly, "I will deal with the Monkey King."

Dog Fugui said, "Yes, I know Canine Emperor's strength is great, and you certainly won't care about these scraps. But these monkeys have strange and extremely agile movements, so I hope you are prepared."

Zhou You grunted unhappily.

Dog Fugui added, "The golden monkeys in this area have always used a Peach Mountain as their territory. That was once Human Race territory as well. The group you encountered should have been out foraging. After all, their numbers are large, and it's not the harvest season, so they need to plunder food from other areas."

Zhou You said indifferently, "From now on, they will never have to rush around for food again."

The leading Earth Dogs slowed down, heading towards an eight-hundred-meter-high mountain, wide in body but average in height.

Looking out, peach trees were intertwined, their roots crisscrossing.

This was once a barren mountain opened by the Human Race, planted with peach trees.

Zhou You landed, and Dog Fugui barked.

All the Earth Dogs slowed their pace, following neatly behind Zhou You.

Zhou You walked on without stopping, heading straight up.

"Kill!"
