103: The hunt continues

On the other side.

As Shen Xi prepared to continue hunting Yao Beasts.

The Demon Beast Leaders in this beast tide had already gathered together.

“Things haven't been peaceful lately!”

A Golden Lion spoke loudly.

“Indeed! There’s an ant causing trouble!”

An angry expression appeared on the Face of a crimson scorpion.

“You've heard too? There’s a Human kid secretly hunting our people?”

Beside them, a snow-white wolf spoke in an eerie tone.

The 'ant' they spoke of was, naturally, Shen Xi.

Shen Xi's actions over the past few days had, after all, been a bit too conspicuous. He had hunted down sixty to seventy Yao Beasts, attracting the attention of many.

The Yao Beasts that survived these hunts naturally reported the matter to their superiors. Through layers of reporting, these Demon Beast Leaders became aware of Shen Xi's existence.

“The beast tide is about to erupt; this should be our grand feast, yet a human, not knowing his place, dares to actively attack us. Although the losses aren't significant, if we don't kill him, won't it dishearten those under us?”

The Golden Lion went straight to the point.

In their view, the so-called Federal Safety City was merely a cage, holding their food and raising their prey.

As for the beast tide, it was their time, as Yao Beasts, to hunt.

But now, the prey dared to actively attack them, which enraged them.

Even though the losses were negligible compared to the tens or hundreds of thousands of Yao Beasts—only sixty to seventy Yao Beasts had died—they were still seething with fury.

This was no longer a matter of loss; it was a matter of Face.

How dare the prey launch an active attack?

“Exactly. The Great One is still in seclusion and doesn't know what's happening outside. But once the Great One emerges and learns that we've been thrown into a panic by a human brat, he will be furious. Before that, kill this kid!”

The snow-white wolf quickly agreed.

“Leave this matter to me! I will make him wish he were dead, make him regret actively attacking us!”

A colorful venomous snake spoke through gritted teeth.

This time, Shen Xi's attacks had killed the most members of their Seven-Poisonous Snakes tribe.

The Seven-Poisonous Snakes, as its name suggests, contains seven types of toxins. It is powerful, even among the many Yao Beasts, ranking among the best.

But now, dozens of Seven-Poisonous Snakess had died at Shen Xi's hands, which made it lose Face.

It had to kill Shen Xi personally to reclaim its lost Face.

“Good! This matter is entrusted to you. Remember, it must be swift and clean, without any hesitation. This concerns not only the Face of your Seven-Poisonous Snakess but also the Face of all Yao Beasts in this beast tide. If you fail…”

The Golden Lion was clearly the core figure of this small group, with a status second only to the Great One they spoke of.

He gave orders with a somewhat casual air.

“Don't worry, I absolutely will not fail. This time, I will personally take action and not give that kid a single chance!”

The Seven Venom Snake Leader patted its chest and guaranteed.

He was a dignified Major Completion of Houtian Realm cultivator; dealing with a Human kid was as easy as flipping his hand.

This matter was quickly decided.

The Seven Venom Snake Leader would personally lead the team to hunt Shen Xi.

As for the other Demon Beast Leaders, although they also hated Shen Xi to the core, since the Golden Lion had already spoken, they couldn't refuse.

Moreover, they didn't believe Shen Xi could survive in the hands of the Seven Venom Snake Leader.

They also wouldn't deploy too many experts for one Shen Xi.

Every beast tide, while a deadly disaster for humans, was also a matter of utmost importance for Yao Beasts, requiring much coordination.

For example, which area belonged to which race—these all needed to be negotiated.

Simply put, these Yao Beasts gathered because of that Great One, but there were also conflicts of interest among them.

For their own interests, they needed to negotiate, engage in open and secret struggles, and once determined, they would then lay out their plans according to the allocated areas to ensure their interests would not be harmed.

All these things required a lot of time and effort.

“Then it's decided. We await your victorious return!”

After saying that, the Golden Lion waved its hand, signaling that the meeting could be adjourned… At the same time.

Shen Xi had already Cultivated the Eternal Undying Body to the Perfection Realm.

His demon beast lifespan was once again depleted, and he was preparing to start hunting again.

Shen Xi's gaze fell on a team of Seven-Poisonous Snakes Yao Beasts patrolling nearby.

During this period, the main targets of his hunts were the Seven-Poisonous Snakes species.

The reason was simple: the Seven-Poisonous Snakes's venom was simply too potent.

If, under similar Realm conditions, other Yao Beasts could only kill one human, the Seven-Poisonous Snakes could kill at least three.

Ordinary people would die on the spot just by smelling the poisonous Qi emanating from a Seven-Poisonous Snakes, and even a Martial Artist could die from a single bite.

The threat of the Seven-Poisonous Snakes was too great. To minimize civilian casualties as much as possible, Shen Xi naturally had to find a way to kill more Seven-Poisonous Snakess before the beast tide erupted.

“Whoosh!”

A sound of air being torn echoed.

Shen Xi, like a ghost, appeared beside this Seven-Poisonous Snakes team.

With a swift and decisive punch, he directly blew up a Seven-Poisonous Snakes in the Great Accomplishment of Yuanqi.

Subsequently, the hunt began!

With the enhancement of the Eternal Undying Body, Shen Xi could already ignore the venom of Yuánqì Realm Seven-Poisonous Snakess.

He allowed the Seven-Poisonous Snakess to bite him, attacking regardless, solely to kill more Seven-Poisonous Snakess in the shortest possible time.

After all, once reinforcements arrived, Shen Xi would have to leave; otherwise, he would definitely be overwhelmed by the endless stream of Yao Beasts.

Not to mention the current Shen Xi, even a Late Acquired Realm expert would not survive under the continuous siege of an endless stream of Yao Beasts.

“Damn it, I can't bite through his skin!”

A Seven-Poisonous Snakes spoke in utter panic.

The moment Shen Xi attacked, it reacted and actively attacked Shen Xi.

But the result was that it couldn't break through Shen Xi's defense; it couldn't even bite through his skin.

If the venom couldn't enter Shen Xi's body, it was completely useless.

This made the Seven-Poisonous Snakes feel the threat of death.

Bang!

The next second, the Seven-Poisonous Snakes's guess was confirmed.

It was blown up by Shen Xi's punch.

And before it died, it only saw that all the other Seven-Poisonous Snakess in its small team had perished on the spot; not one survived.

In less than a minute, a ten-member Yao Beast team was completely wiped out!
