When she joined the group, everyone was very surprised except Xiu'er. She used a fake name to introduce herself. Yue Yang only smiled at this.
After introducing herself, she didn't talk anymore. Yue Yang explained that she was very shy and didn't like to talk much.
When they reached the 'Hope Town', everyone except Yue Yang, Xiu'er, and Wu Xia was surprised to see a lot of mercenaries. Yue Yang explained that this was the best time to harvest Fire Red Ant's eggs, and one Fire Red Ant's egg could be sold for 1 gold. That was why there were a lot of mercenaries here seeking for wealth.
Yue Yang received messages from Yi Nan and Luo Hua from the guilds. Yi Nan would join in few days while Luo Hua could only come in half a month.
Yue Yang could easily go to the peak and picked up the herb but he knew that there were many powerful people observing him from shadows. They would try to attack him or his sister. He could guarantee his safety but he was worried about Bing'er and others. So he decided to wait. He also didn't want Xiu'er to make a move as she was restricted by God as she was very strong.
After that, the group moved towards Despair Valley. They crossed the cliff track that was not even half a meter wide which made them frightened.
Only four people were unaffected. Yue Yang, who had mastered Nature's Heart. Xiu'er, whose mastery over Nature's Heart was even above Yue Yang. Yue Bing, who was constantly trained by his brother and had also mastered Nature's Heart. The third one was Wu Xia who was walking behind.
The mercenaries started ridiculing them when they reached into the forest but Yue Yang only warned them to watch their backs.
Before they could realize a dark figure charged out. It wrapped itself on the mercenary's body and quickly pulled him back to the darkness. When the mercenary troops saw this, they immediately cried out 'shit', threw away the pieces of roasted meat on their hands, and took out the weapons from their waists. They raised their fire torch and chased after the figure into the darkness.
When the mercenaries chased into the darkness, there was completely no movement in the darkness anymore. That monster that had murdered the skinny man had disappeared without a trace with its prey.
The leader bellowed at Yue Yang for not telling them about the beast but Yue Yang shrugged his shoulders and told them that he had already warned them.
Before the leader could say anything, Hui Tai Lang flew out of the darkness. In its mouth, there was the skinny mercenary soldier who had turned all green.
All of the mercenary soldiers couldn't catch up with the Ghost Shadow Rock Spider, but in Hui Tai Lang's eyes, that Ghost Shadow Rock Spider was slower than a tortoise.
Hui Tai Lang returned to Yue Yang's side all high and mighty, throwing the skinny mercenary soldier who was on the verge of death to the ground. At the same time, it gave a low growl towards the other mercenary soldiers who were shocked speechless. Its imposing presence was extremely dominating. Thick, dense demon qi engulfed its whole body. The mercenary soldiers were all so frightened that they immediately retreated.
That Troop Leader was also shocked.
After that Yue Yang turned around and leave. Ye Kong and others followed. Wu Xia was observing him while walking behind. She was really surprised by the things he did.
For the next three whole days, Yue Yang, Ye Kong, and the others trained at the Ant Holes. They did not return to the Settlement Camp.
Yue Yang's purpose was not like the other mercenaries, who were looking for Fire Red Ant Eggs. His purpose was to train the team's beasts and the coordination. Yue Yang didn't summon any of his beasts to fight, his main priority was to protect everyone's safety while allowing them to train.
Yue Bing trained together with Ye Kong, Fatty Hai, and the Li Clan Brothers on the first day, but when Yue Yang saw that her Thousand Years Treant General's abilities were simply too powerful, he told her to train alone at a place a hundred meters away from Ye Kong and the others. He also told Ye Kong, Fatty Hai, and the Li Clan Brothers to divide into two groups to train.
He had already fulfilled his promise and gave each of them a nine-headed beast's egg. They were very happy. Yue Yang decided if any of his women wanted to contract them, he would give the remaining eggs to them.
When Wu Xia watched him giving the beast eggs to his teammates, she was dumbfounded and asked about it. Yue Yang explained it to her with a smile.
He was sitting with her and Xiu'er while observing the others. She was also lost in her thought. When Yue Yang looked at her he didn't disturb her. She was also surprised to see Xiu'er as she could see that she was even more beautiful than her even though Xiu'er was wearing a veil.
After some time, she also asked to train with them. Yue Yang nodded but told her to spar with him as others were very weak for her.
When they practiced, she was shocked to find that she was not able to land a single hit on him. Yue Yang also gave her advice on her techniques and pointed out her flaws. She was really amazed.
They all practiced for 3 days. Yue Yang was constantly training her.
Wu Xia even asked him questions regarding martial arts, cultivation, beasts, etc. He always answered her truthfully. She was really impressed by him.
The others were surprised by her behavior. Wu Xia only talked with Yue Bing when not asking questions from Yue Yang. Yue Bing was first surprised but she was happy to talk with her. They mostly talked about girls' things. Wu Xia sometimes asked about Yue Yang and Xiu'er. She was again surprised after hearing from her. The most surprising part was that Xiu'er was his girlfriend.
Yue Yang was also very happy with this. He was slowly-slowly making progress with her.
Suddenly, a sound wave from an SOS Scroll pleaded for help from somewhere deep in the Ant's Hole.
Yue Yang told them to go back to the Settlement camp but they refused. Yue Yang didn't want them to follow him but Yue Bing grabbed his arm. He sighed and let them follow him in the end.
After they reached the entrance, he told them that if anything happened, they should immediately leave and not wait for him. He asked Xiu'er and Wu Xia to keep an eye on them as he didn't want anything to happen to them. He went inside and quickly reached his destination.
He helped them by giving them the teleportation scrolls in exchange for Hard-shelled Dragon Fruit. It is one of the most important ingredients needed to compound a Martial Spirit Pill. Yue Yang had already decided to take all the fruits to make pills.
