121: Chapter 121 Encountering the Three Again

“I think, for whatever reason, it’s a fact that nine-tier monsters are gathered together, so this beast tide might not be as simple as we imagine,” Mu Cheng expressed some of his views.

Peppa also agreed. “That’s true, but no matter what, you must be determined to get the water of life.”

“That’s hard to say... The water of life is precious, so there will definitely be many others vying for it. Wait... speaking of which, will this time also be so smooth?” Mu Cheng suddenly asked as he spoke.

Having come this far so smoothly, he naturally had serious doubts about whether this time would be as smooth.

Peppa nodded and replied, “Probably! Maybe it’s to let you see the world, or maybe there will be some difficulty.”

“True, no matter what, I think I’ll still succeed in getting it!” Mu Cheng thought for a moment and said.

The journey so far had been very smooth, but the goal was the same: to grow rapidly.

Thinking of this, Mu Cheng’s heart was filled with curiosity about what secrets were hidden behind it all...

One person and one piglet traveled through the Thousand Absolute Lands, from the forest to the wasteland... and now to the black desert.

“Be careful, ahead is the deep part of the Thousand Absolute Lands,” Peppa suddenly reminded him.

Although the nine-tier monsters were gathered together, it wasn't necessarily the case in the deep parts; anything could happen.

“You bastard... aren’t there no nine-tier monsters? How many below nine-tier would just be cannon fodder?” Mu Cheng complained indifferently.

Peppa: “Can you use your brain? If others are unwilling or uninterested, can you force them to do it?”

“This... fine!” Mu Cheng was completely speechless, instantly feeling very helpless.

However, Peppa was right; nine-tier monsters had already developed sentience and possessed a certain level of intelligence.

Naturally, they would consider the pros and cons to decide whether to get a share of the spoils...

There were many, many nine-tier monsters in the Thousand Absolute Lands, so it was normal for some to be unwilling to gather together.

Suddenly, sounds of fighting came from ahead, and Mu Cheng felt a sense of familiarity.

“These three... I feel like I’ve seen them somewhere?”

“They do feel familiar, let’s observe the situation first.” Peppa felt the same but couldn’t recognize them.

Mu Cheng slowly approached and finally saw the situation clearly.

“It’s the Black Scorpion King. These three guys are really coincidental; it looks like they came to Guangshen City to develop.”

The three of them were none other than Han Xin, Han Dapang, and Han Xiaoshou, engaged in the same fierce battle...

Only this time, their opponent was a four-star nine-tier Black Scorpion King, but their strength was not weak either, all of them already at the peak of eight-tier.

“The Han Family, I remember, is one of the Eight Great Families. Coming to Guangshen City seems to be for the water of life, but there might be other reasons too!” Peppa slowly said.

Although the water of life was precious, Peppa knew very well that if it were truly that simple, there wouldn't be such a big commotion.

“Alright! Let’s act according to the circumstances first.” Mu Cheng didn’t rush to attack but observed the situation.

Peppa also agreed. “Mhm, the Han Family will help you in the future, so save them if you can! Having an extra path isn’t a bad thing for you.”

Upon hearing this, Mu Cheng was clearly bewildered but didn't ask for further explanation.

Future matters, let’s talk about them in the future...

On the other side, the three still used their old routine: the more defensively strong Han Dapang held the Black Gold Shield at the very front.

Han Xiaoshou used his Ice Ability to restrain, and Han Xin was responsible for repelling, his Silver Spear striking powerfully every time.

Each strike pierced through the surrounding void...
