Chapter 502: Uprising Of The Gangster Rabbits!

Translator: AstralGhost Editor: Kurisu
The number of gangster rabbits was high, but their individual strength was too low. Here, they were only the bottom of the food chain.
The martial cultivators would not go out of their way to hunt these gangster rabbits, either, as their meat tasted too horrible. The texture of their flesh was like chewing on coarse rope.
With their adorable outer appearance, these rabbits should have been an extremely good choice as pets. But the gangster rabbits’ hearts were simply too sinister. The risk of keeping of them was not low at all! If one was not careful and got “taken” by the rabbit… then that would be really interesting.
The only thing that was slightly valuable about them was their fur. However, they couldn’t be sold for high price. Why would a person with money want to wear clothes made of the fur of such vulgar rabbits?
At this time, the group of martial cultivators did not even glance at the cute-looking gangster rabbit that they’d slain with a single strike from several dozen meters away. For this kind of trash Demonic Beast, they couldn’t even be bothered to go and pick its corpse up.
“Since the number of Demonic Beasts in this area is lowered, let’s change the location. We can comb this area again on our way back.” Liao Yi shook his head as he made a decision.
The group relied on this trade to put food on the table. Normally, they would spend half a year hunting Demonic Beasts, and the profits would allow them to live comfortably for one to two years. If they didn’t need to buy spirit pills and weapons, it was completely possible for the money to last three to five years!
“Captain, if we go further in, there might be Thousand Year King level Demonic Beasts,” a tall and strongly built woman said in a gruff voice. This woman was over two meters tall, and her body mass was all made up of powerful muscles!
Another team member stood out with eyes shining with excitement as he said, “Great profits usually carry a risk with it. Even if we go in a little deeper, it still shouldn’t be easy to bump into a Thousand Year King level Demonic Beast. We’re not going into the core of the Hundred Break Mountain Range, after all.”
“I think it’s feasible too. Even if we went in deeper, there would at most be more Fourth Layer Demonic Beasts. Thousand Year King beasts all have their own territories, and will not roam about so randomly. Besides, if we meet with any unexpected situations, we can just leave at that time,” Liao Yi said in a gruff voice.
The large group of Third Layer cultivators also whispered among themselves as the 10 captains discussed.
“I think it’s worth the risk, our profis will definitely be several times higher if we do this.”
“If we can really make several times more money than the last few times, I can probably buy that martial technique that I’ve been eyeing for a long time.”
“But, it’s quite worrying. If we really meet a Thousand Year King level Demonic Beast, we’ll likely be completely wiped out.”
There were people who supported the motion, and also people who objected. Everybody here was already used to blood and death. With the possibility of shocking amounts of profits, most of them would be willing to give it a try.
Just when everyone was heatedly discussing, a little gangster rabbit that hadn’t even reached the First Layer of the Hundred Year realm of strength hopped out and looked around cutely.
Its black beady eyes bleared with moisture, and it held a stalk of an unknown spirit grass in its hands as it chewed innocently. But when it saw its dead friend, it immediately threw the stalk of spirit grass away, and its eyes turned red.
“J-ji!”
The gangster narrowed its eyes and looked at the group of humans deeply before it turned around and left.
The day was wearing out, and Liao Yi and the rest still hadn’t come to a decision. In the end, they decided to set up camp and rest for the night.
On the other side, the gangster rabbit had hopped its way over to a river bank. This was a huge campsite, with no less than 100 human cultivators.
But at this time, it looked like a complete wreck, and there were many signs of battle all over the camp.
The human cultivators that’d been walking around the camp had all disappeared, and only the sight of huge rabbits hopping around could be seen.
From within the tents, one could often hear agonized cries and wails, as well as the excited squeaks of the gangster rabbits.
This was a grand banquet that belonged to the gangster rabbits, and numerous Hundred Year realm Third Layer Demonic Beast cores were being eaten by them. At the center of the camp was a huge torn and tattered tent that seemed like it had suffered much damage.
“Squeak, squeak!”
Inside the tent, there were many vats of fine wine and numerous stalks of spirit herbs were piled into a small mountain.
Tens of cultivators were seated together on the ground, and huddled together by a group of gangster rabbits, each holding a natural weapon the size of a human head.
There was one main common point with all the captives. They were all females! At this point, everyone was trembling with fear as they looked at the huge group of gangster rabbits around them.
“Elder Sister Mu, what should we now? Wu~wu~” A young girl cried lightly. Just the thought of what was going to happen next had already brought her on the verge of despair.
“I don’t have any ideas as well, let’s just commit suicide. At least, it’s a more straightforward way to go.”
The girl who was addressed as elder sister Mu also had a bitter expression on her face. Just as she’d said, it was better to die than to land in the hands of these gangster rabbits. At the very least, these rabbits were not interested in dead things.
The huge three meter tall gangster rabbits all had adorable innocent looks on their faces. However, their snow white furs were all stained with blood to varying degrees.
Some of the gangster rabbits had dunked their heads in the wine vat and were drinking heartily. Shockingly, the strength of each gangster rabbit had reached the Fourth Layer of the Hundred Year realm!
And it wasn’t just one or two that had this strength, but several hundreds!
At their head was a gangster rabbit with dark-red fur. This gangster rabbit was only abut one meter tall, and was chewing on a stalk of nearly 1,000 years old bearded ginseng.
This gangster rabbit’s aura was as deep as the ocean, and unfathomably powerful. Dark golden patterns could be seen all over its two large front teeth.
Just as Mu Qing and the rest were about to take their own lives, a half meter tall gangster rabbit hopped in, squeaking loudly.
Following that, the dark-red gangster rabbit stood up. Although its height of merely one meter was very short, it gave one a feeling as if an overlord was slowly awakening!
A powerful aura gushed into the sky, causing the countless Demonic Beasts in the area to tremble unceasingly. This aura was incredibly nearing the aura of a Thousand Year King!
Following that, all the gangster rabbits began to hop up and down with agitation. Then, they each grabbed the trunk of an Iron Core Tree and hopped away with the dark-red gangster rabbit.
Only about a dozen Fourth Layer Hundred Year realm gangster rabbits were left behind to watch Mu Qing and the rest. Although these gangster rabbits were looking at the girls with heated gazes, they did not dare to do anything to them. The dark-red gangster rabbit had spat its saliva on them beforehand, marking them with its scent.
Several hundred gangster rabbits hopped with ease through the jungle in the darkness. Whichever Demonic Beast they came across was directly clobbered to death, its inner dan dug out and swallowed.
Although the gangster rabbits were herbivores, it didn’t mean that they wouldn’t like inner dans.
Demonic Beasts obeyed the law of the jungle, where the weak stood as an easy prey to the strong. When Demonic Beasts fought with each other, it was not only for the natural treasures, but also each others’ inner dan!
Liao Yi’s group had already set up camp and made their tents. 25 people were also deployed to patrol the camp while the others rested..
This was the Hundred Break Mountain Range, and one needed to be extremely cautious at all times. 10 people patrolled the interior of the camp, while 15 were deployed on its perimeters.
A group of gangster rabbits quickly reached the area where the camp was located. Three Fourth Layer Hundred Year realm gangster rabbits suddenly shrunk to half a meter tall, and only revealed the strength at the First Layer of the Hundred Year realm.
“I say, the captains are really too cautious. There are so few Demonic Beasts in this area, so is there a need to send so many people to patrol?”
Two people sat under a tree, leaning against its trunk as they sneakily passed a bottle of wine among themselves. At this time, they were chewing on some Demonic Beast meat jerky and yawning with annoyance.
“Shh, be quiet, if others saw the two of us drinking and relaxing here and reported it to the captains, our profits will be cut in half,” the other person whispered and looked around cautiously.
This was not ordinary wine that they were drinking. It was made from numerous precious spirit herbs, and brewed into a special spirit wine. And the creator even took into consideration that martial cultivators had higher alcohol endurance, and added in the sap of the Drunken Demonic Vines.
A five jin heavy vat of wine could knock out 10 regular Third Layer Hundred Year realm cultivators. The good thing was, when they woke up from their drunkeness, they wouldn’t feel any headache or hangover. Instead, their mental power would be clearer, and their blood Qi would flow more smoothly.
A half meter tall gangster rabbit suddenly hopped out in front of the two and looked over them with its moist, beady eyes. At the same time, its drool had almost dripped out of its mouth.
“Hey, look at this dumb rabbit. To think that it would covet our wine so much that its drool is coming out of its mouth! These annoying things… apart from them having great agility, they aren’t good for anything else.”
The two had already spotted this gangster rabbit hopping over from far away. However, they didn’t think that this little fellow could cause them any trouble. One of the man directly pointed at the rabbit and laughed loudly.
“Crunch!”
“Garg-ah!”
The man’s outstretched finger was suddenly bitten off in one bite, and before he could even react, sharp pain appeared on his throat. Although he wanted to scream for help, only blood and a choking sound came from his mouth.
The other man could only stare in shock at this scene. Never would he have imagined that this little gangster rabbit that was only at the First Layer of the Hundred Year realm would kill his comrade in an instant!
At this time, his mind was completely blank. How could this be? Even if it was a sneak attack, it shouldn’t have been so swift that they hadn’t even have a chance to react, right? Unless this gangster rabbit was much more powerful than them!
Just as he reacted and wanted to scream, he felt a wave of heat flowing away from his body. Lowering his head, he looked with disbelief at the palm-sized wound in his chest. The chest was completely see-through, and his heart was already missing.
“Ji-ji.”
A spot of blood had appeared on the gangster rabbit’s fur and mouth. The gangster rabbit’s cheeks puffed cutely and it spat out its tongue in a disdainful manner. With a light hop, it disappeared into the darkness.
Numerous careless martial cultivators died in the hands of the harmless-looking gangster rabbits one by one without anyone realizing.
“Enemy attack! Enemy attack!”
“AH!”
There was no way to get rid of all the patrolling guards in a completely stealthy manner. One of the guards just happened to specialize in speed, and using a movement type martial technique, managed to react and evade the attack of a gangster rabbit, immediately raising alarm.
“Who is it!?”
“What kind of Demonic Beast is it!?”
The martial cultivators quickly charged out with all kinds of weapons in their hands, full of deadly killing intent. When they saw the group of gangster rabbits before them, everyone’s mouths fell wide open.
Their first thought was that this was a joke, but when they felt the auras around the gangster rabbits, the crowd fell speechless with disbelief.
“Heavens! How is this possible!?”
“Gangster rabbits can evolve to the Fourth Layer of the Hundred Year realm as well?!”
“My god, the last time this daddy here has seen a Fourth Layer Hundred Year realm gangster rabbit was over 100 years ago! How come there’s so many here now!?”
“Most gangster rabbits can only reach the Third Level of the Hundred Year realm at most. Supposedly, only the leader of the colony of gangster rabbits can reach the Fourth Layer. How can there be several hundred of them here!?”
Loud gasps rang out from the group as they looked at the sea of rabbits before them. Seeing the blood-red eyes of the gangster rabbits, everyone felt their butts clench tightly all of a sudden.
