27: intuition

"Provocation? I am in my territory, where is the provocation?"

When the cold snake tongue flicked out, Qingyang was also ready at any time, maxing out his two attribute points and breaking through to the late fourth stage in one go to fight Huang Shan.

Qingyang, who possessed the Backwater Extreme Sacrifice skill, was confident he could severely injure the opponent at the same stage.

Fierce Beasts have the keenest intuition for danger. At this moment, Huang Shan sensed faint traces of dangerous aura coming from Qingyang.

This made the originally indifferent Huang Shan suddenly stand up, his large orange-yellow eyes staring intently at Qingyang.

It wasn't until a long time passed that Huang Shan suddenly bared his tiger mouth and smiled.

"Roar~ (Not bad, I really didn't misjudge. You were hiding your strength.)"

But the words Huang Shan spoke next completely silenced Qingyang.

"I will not interfere with matters in your territory. I came today to tell you about another matter: cooperation."

"Cooperation?" Qingyang asked suspiciously.

"Yes, cooperation. I have waited for so many years, constantly looking for a suitable partner. I think today, I have found one.

The position of controller of the Eastern Guling Mountains Eastern Outer Region, do you want it? The opponent is a Bamboo Leaf Green Jiao, currently at the peak of the fourth stage.

Back then, I was ambushed by it and almost died in the mountains. This is not just a personal vendetta, but also the best opportunity to strengthen one's own power.

If you become the Eastern Outer Region controller, with our relationship, it will also pose a certain threat to the Southern and Northern controllers.

You also know that if you are strong enough, if you are unwilling to leave, there will be a battle between us. Rather than that, it's better for us to cooperate."

Huang Shan's words made Qingyang ponder.

The position of controller was too tempting, like being a local emperor. No Fierce Beast could refuse this temptation.

Qingyang's provocation this time was actually also aimed at the position of controller, but the suggestion Huang Shan gave was clearly the optimal solution.

"Okay, I agree."

These short five words instantly made Huang Shan overjoyed.

After that, Huang Shan sniffed the air filled with a faint smell of blood and nodded, saying, "I heard Old Wolf say you've been trading zhen crystal with it.

Actually, I wanted to say you can also trade with me, but the authority of a controller cannot be challenged. Your actions are limited to tonight. After this, you need to come to my territory, and we will discuss the matters of the Eastern Outer Region together."

After saying this, Huang Shan suddenly picked up a Scale Bull from behind the hillside, casually threw it not far from Qingyang, and turned to leave.

The Scale Bull was the second third-stage Fierce Beast in Qingyang's territory, but it had been dealt with by Huang Shan.

Watching the retreating figure, Qingyang murmured, "Is this a Meeting Gift (meeting gift) to show goodwill?"

After saying this, Qingyang turned and headed towards the location of the last third-stage intermediate Leopard Beast Guard.

On the tallest hundred-meter-high tree in Qingyang's territory, a Fierce Leopard with a severely injured right leg, injured deep enough to see the bone, was emitting a dangerous aura and silently licking its wound.

At a certain moment, perhaps due to a Fierce Beast's instinct, this streamlined Fierce Leopard suddenly raised its head and looked into the distance by the moonlight.

There, a Black Gold Giant Python, which already faintly resembled a Jiao Snake, Qingyang, had appeared in its sight.

"Woo~ (Greetings, Yang Beast Guard. May I know why you've come tonight?)"

Lin Bao, who was once also a Beast Guard, adopted a very low posture when facing Qingyang.

Seeing that Qingyang remained silent, Lin Bao panicked and continued, "Yang Beast Guard, please listen to me. I am willing to surrender to you and become your subordinate. I..."

Before he could finish speaking, Qingyang suddenly interrupted him.

"Hiss~ (I don't need it. I came here this time to kill you.)"

At this moment, Lin Bao, who had been trying to appease him, completely lost his previous demeanor, instead standing up domineeringly and saying,

"Kill me? I admit your strength is greater than mine, but don't forget, I was once also a Beast Guard. You wouldn't want to see a fight to the death where both sides lose, would you?"

"No, no, no, the fish must die, but the net won't break."

The next second, Qingyang's body suddenly accelerated, instantly coiling around the big tree and attacking the opponent.

At the same time he attacked the opponent, Winter Black-striped Freeze also instantly shot towards the opponent.

At this moment, instinctive danger actually allowed Lin Bao to dodge Qingyang's attack one step ahead.

Subsequently, the speed of Lin Bao's entire body suddenly increased several times, clearly having used his skill.

"Clang~ Clang~"

A sound like metal colliding rang out, and Qingyang felt a slight pain in his body.

Dozens of scales flew off, but Qingyang couldn't catch the opponent's figure at all.

For a moment, Qingyang was completely enraged.

The next second, a hint of blood appeared in Qingyang's originally black-gold vertical pupils.

"Backwater Extreme Sacrifice."

The moment the violent sound rang out, Lin Bao only felt that the Black Python, which he couldn't catch just a second ago, suddenly had a black shadow appear on its entire body.

Subsequently, Lin Bao's entire body was coiled by Qingyang.

Under extreme force, the moment Qingyang coiled around the opponent, bones were heard snapping with crackling sounds as they were crushed.

At the moment of death, Lin Bao's eyes were wide, not understanding why Qingyang had suddenly erupted with such immense combat power.

As for Qingyang, the moment he killed the opponent, relying on his extreme speed, he quickly sped towards King Kong's location.

A few minutes later, as Qingyang noticed King Kong's figure, an extreme weakness instantly enveloped him.

"Is the side effect this significant? Fortunately, I only tried releasing it once."

After saying this, Qingyang immediately said to King Kong in the distance, "Carry me back, and tell Hong Ying that all Fierce Beasts should be traded with Huang Shan."

After saying this, Qingyang instantly fainted.

At this time, if Qingyang were still awake, he would definitely find that all three of his attributes had turned to one, making him weaker than a novice. Perhaps any small animal could kill Qingyang.

...

Unconscious for who knows how long, when Qingyang awoke, King Kong was quietly squatting outside the villa like the most loyal guard.

Even Red Fire Ant Queen was not allowed to approach by King Kong.

Hearing movement from inside the villa, King Kong suddenly turned his head to look.

"Qing Yang, I thought you were dead. What happened to you? You were unconscious for five whole days."

Inside the villa, Qingyang slowly shook his head.

Five days had passed, the killing was over, and Hong Ying, following Qingyang's instructions, had handed over all the Fierce Beasts to Huang Shan.

But that guy Huang Shan told Hong Ying to have Qingyang come and get the zhen crystal himself.

In five days, with Huang Shan's talent and such abundant Fierce Beast meat, Qingyang guessed that his strength must have improved even further.

So, for an equal trade in strength, Qingyang simply added the remaining two attributes to the maximum as well, breaking through to the peak of the fourth stage in one go.
