My Disciples Are All Villains Chapter 1167 - Arrival

Chapter 1167: Arrival

Ye Wusheng pointed at an ancient tree nearby and said, “This way.”
The duo walked up to the ancient tree and moved their ears close to it.
Ye Wusheng said, “Using the most primitive way to determine the target’s location is the easiest and best way in this situation. Lu Wu must be over there. There’s a crash of rhinoceroses in the front left and a pack of wolves in the front right. They’re all very weak so they won’t interfere with our plan…”
Ye Wusheng could use a cultivation technique to track, but this would give away his presence since Lu Wu was likely able to sense the energy fluctuations. He had to admit, in certain aspects, fierce beasts were far superior to humans. For example, a fierce beast’s senses were much keener than a human’s.
Ye Cheng listened closely to the sounds before he said in admiration, “Brother Ye, you’re really amazing!”
Ye Wusheng looked at the treetops before he said, “Just one position isn’t enough. Follow me…”
“What for?”
“Go around to the other side… I want to confirm its position.”
Ye Wusheng led Ye Cheng and flew at a low altitude. During the journey, they were very cautious and did not release much of their Primal Qi. They flew at a constant speed and only used a trickle of Primal Qi.
The duo flew for another hour before they landed on the ground.
Using the same method, Ye Wusheng crouched down and moved his ear closed to the ground to listen to the noises coming from the ground. This time, he took twice as long.
Upon seeing this, Ye Cheng crouched down as well and tried to listen as well. However, he did not hear anything. He asked in a low voice, “Brother Ye, did Lu Wu run away?”
Ye Wusheng shushed Ye Cheng.
Patience was the most important trait of hunters. Ye Wusheng was very patient; he waited for another hour.
Boom!
A muffled noise rang from the ground.
Ye Cheng’s eyes widened in surprise. He could barely conceal his delight.
On the contrary, Ye Wusheng was rather calm. He nodded before indicating that Ye Cheng should be quiet.
The duo was about to rise to their feet when…
Creak!
“Huh?”
The duo exchanged a look.
“Brother Ye?” Ye Cheng was not experienced enough to determine what sound it was. He was clearly confused as he looked around.
“Listen again…” Ye Wusheng could not figure out what sound it was as well. However, his experience and instinct told him that the source of that sound was not simple. All he needed to do was confirm it now.
In the quiet mountain range and forest, the cries of a small number of flying beasts, the growlings of the fierce beasts, and the whistling wind entered Ye Wusheng’s ears. Cultivators’ hearings were generally good. Even without the use of Primal Qi, they still hear sounds within a range of 1,000 meters. To hear even further, one naturally needed to have a higher cultivation.
Buzz!
“Over there!”
Ye Wusheng flew over at top speed. After a moment, he heard a screech from the mountains. He raised his hands, “Stop!”
Ye Cheng, who had just caught up not long ago, panted as he looked at the dark mountain range.
“There’s no need to investigate any further. It’s a beast king…” Ye Wusheng said as he pointed at the small fierce beasts around him, “Beast kings are territorial. Once they claim a territory, they’ll drive away the other fierce beasts… Look…”
In the forest, on the hillside, and on the land below, the fierce beasts were scampering away.
“How lucky! Let’s go and kill it!” Ye Cheng said excitedly.
“No,” Ye Wusheng shook his head and said, “We’re too close. We risk alerting Lu Wu. Our target is Lu Wu, not the beast king.”
Ye Cheng sighed. “What a pity.”
Ye Wusheng pointed to a peak in the west and said, “Let’s go there. We’ll send a message to the monster hunting squad and wait for them there…”
“Okay.”
Following that, the duo flew west.
…
At this moment, Conch pointed at Cheng Huang and said, “Senior Sister, Cheng Huang is growing!”
Ye Tianxin and Conch looked at Cheng Huang in surprise.
Cheng Huang lowered its head, but it only let out a small squeak.
“To be precise, it’s recovering,” Ye Tianxin said with a smile, “When I first saw it in the Moonlight Woodland, it was much bigger than this. Both of us together aren’t even as big as its nostrils. It parted with a part of its life heart and shrank in size for me… It seems like the vitality energy in the Unknown Land is very conducive to fierce beasts’ recovery speed…”
Cheng Huang nodded and made some noises.
Conch said, “Cheng Huang said it has eaten too many small fierce beasts recently so it doesn’t want to eat meat anymore…”
Ye Tianxin said, “Bear with it. We haven’t been here that long so it’s not good to make a fuss…”
Cheng Huang lay on the ground, feeling aggrieved.
…
In the cave.
Lu Zhou’s Birth Palace was spinning. Two-thirds of the area had been filled. Perhaps, it was almost at the end, the pain had been significantly reduced. Everything went very smoothly; it was just that the time it took was a little long.
…
Another three days passed in just a blink of an eye.
On a mountain peak in the Unknown Land.
Ye Cheng asked slightly anxiously, “Brother Ye, the monster hunting squad should be here by now, right?”
“There’s no need to be anxious. They’ll come…” Ye Cheng replied.
“But what if Lu Wu runs away before they arrive?”
“Lu Wu has already been here for at least half a month… If it wants to leave, it would’ve left a long time ago. Moreover, I still have the tracking talismans…” Ye Wusheng said.
“Alright.”
Not long after that, dozens of cultivators rushed over from the western horizon. Their flying speed was incredibly fast as they flew without rest.
“They’re here!” An expression of delight appeared on Ye Wusheng’s face.
“This is the monster hunting squad?” Ye Cheng frowned. “Don’t you think the number of people is too small?”
“It’s fine. This should be enough.”
As soon as Ye Wusheng finished speaking, a voice rang Ye Wusheng and Ye Cheng’s ears.
“Ye Wusheng, how are you going to cooperate with me since you brought this ungrateful burden here?”
Figures appeared in front of the duo one after another. There were a total of forty people with a mix of men and women. These people did not wear long robes like most cultivators did. They were dressed in various styles of strange clothing. Some of them revealed their legs; some of them wore sleeveless shirts that revealed their arms; some of their tops revealed their chests. There was even a fat cultivator who was completely shirtless!
All of these cultivators had one thing in common: there was a symbol of a green ghostly skull near the corners of their eyes.
Ye Wusheng cupped his fists together and said, “Brother Cao, please forgive us… This is my brother, Ye Cheng. I brought him here to broaden his horizons.”
The cultivator standing at the lead was Cao Zechun, the captain of the monster hunting squad. He glanced at Ye Cheng, causing Ye Cheng to blush and lower his head.
At this moment, a woman standing at the back spat out a blade of grass before saying before a smile, “Oh, you’re still a virgin… Do you want me to help you get rid of that label…”
Ye Cheng’s ears turned red as soon as he heard these words.
“Fu Ruandong, this isn’t the place for you to mess around…” Ye Wusheng said.
“I was just joking…” Fu Ruandong, the female cultivator, shrugged after she whistled at Ye Cheng.
At this time, Cao Zechun directly asked, “Where’s Lu Wu now?”
Ye Wusheng said, “Brother Cao, I’ve already led you here. If you can’t even find Lu Wu now, I really find it difficult to trust in your abilities…”
Cao Zechun chuckled. “Interesting. This is what I like about you. Third Brother, show them your skills…”
A frail monkey-like man stepped forward before he raised his fingers to his lips. Then, a loud and clear sound rang from between his lips.
“You!” Ye Wusheng was shocked.
“Kid, this is the call of a female flying beast. Even the beasts won’t be able to tell it’s fake. Look… Those male flying beasts are responding…”
In the surrounding forest, many of the fierce beasts took flight.
The frail monkey-like man looked at the fierce beasts before he brought a talisman out and tossed it in the air.
The talisman ignited and burned to ashes before a ring of light rose up.
After a few breaths, the skinny man pointed in the direction of the three mountains and clicked his tongue before he said, “It really knows how to hide…”
“How admirable. I’m impressed! Very few people possess such a high level when it comes to imitating sounds and using them to control ordinary beasts… You can’t tell the difference from the real things at all”
“You flatter me,” the frail man said, “If it’s so easy to tell apart, our monster hunting squad wouldn’t be able to survive…”
At this time, Cao Zechun waved his hand and said, “Alright, follow the plan. Let’s go!”
“Yes.”
Subsequently, the 40 cultivators flew toward the three mountains.
