Chapter 672: Chapter 671: Subduing the Six-Fingered Ape

The Water Ape who hosted them lived quite humbly; there was no crystal palace or a house of gold, just an underwater sea cave hollowed out from the rock—it kept out the water, but inside it was reasonably warm and incredibly spacious.

There were no other demon cultivators in the cave. The Black Jiao king sat beside a stone table, which was laden with meat and wine. He picked up a bottle and began to drink.

Of course, at this time, Yusuf Zuck had also been placed behind the stone table, just a little over a meter away from the Black Jiao King, very close.

Naturally, Yusuf Zuck was ready to make his move. He had prepared the Purple Droplet, ready to flick it at any moment.

"Hahaha." The Water Ape laughed heartily like the wind, taking his seat and then, lifting a jar of wine, he boomed out, "Congratulations to my brother Black Jiao, felicitations! Have you encountered some kind of fortuitous adventure? How have you managed to Feather Transform so quickly?"

"Hey, you’re right about the adventure," the Black Jiao King said as he tore into the meat on the table, speaking while chewing, "I consumed a human cultivator, and after that, I advanced in rank. Truly unbelievable!"

"Is that so?" The Water Ape exclaimed in surprise.

"No kidding," the Black Jiao King replied indistinctly. "When your men came to call for help, I was at the critical moment of Feather Transforming. How could I come over? But as soon I completed the transformation, I came immediately."

"Brother Black Jiao, a toast to you. This old ape did well in making you my brother!" The Water Ape said with a face full of gratitude.

"Cut the crap, I’m not helping you for nothing," the Black Jiao King retorted with an eye roll.

"Hahaha..." The Water Ape roared with laughter.

At this moment, Yusuf Zuck almost flicked the Purple Droplet out—what a perfect opportunity when the Water Ape’s mouth was wide open with laughter.

However, the Water Ape closed his mouth too quickly. Yusuf Zuck didn’t dare act recklessly. He had to ensure success with one strike; otherwise, if he wasted the droplet, there would be no more Purple Droplets for 24 hours. He simply couldn’t afford to waste it.

"What’s your condition? Speak directly, Brother Black Jiao. I know very well you’re not one to suffer losses," the Water Ape said teasingly.

"Well, it’s not much, just... just..." The Black Jiao King was a bit red-faced and confessed in a low, embarrassed voice: "Recently, I’ve taken a liking to... mmm... ’the love of the dragon and yang’."

"Uh..." For a moment, the Water Ape, who had been listening, was stunned. His mouth agape, his brain seemed to have short-circuited!

"Holy shit!" Yusuf Zuck couldn’t help but curse inwardly—damn, Clayton Zuck had done well; just one sentence and he had completely taken the Water Ape by surprise.

"Perfect timing!" He finally seized the opportunity and quickly flicked the Purple Droplet!

Given the close distance and the Water Ape’s lack of readiness, mouth still agape, Yusuf Zuck scored a direct hit and the Purple Droplet went straight into the Water Ape’s mouth!

"Who?" The Water Ape was startled, aware of a strange noise and feeling something fall into his mouth!

However, as soon as he uttered "who," his entire body started to shake violently, bones clacking together as a powerful shockwave emitted from his body, with a halo of light flickering on and off.

"Aaaah..." Possibly due to the medicine power taking effect, the Water Ape felt his body almost exploding—a sign of an imminent breakthrough. Without time to think any further, he immediately began breathing exercises to channel and dissolve the overwhelming power of the medicine.

Yusuf Zuck revealed himself at that moment, a smile spreading across his face—because he hadn’t thought it would be so easy to overcome the Water Ape without shedding a drop of blood, establishing a master-servant connection, soul-linked.

"Water Ape, think of nothing else. Immediately begin to resolve the Supreme Divine Liquid bestowed by your master. You’re also about to Feather Transform, haha!" At that point, the Black Jiao King stood up and called out loudly.

The Water Ape, as if he hadn’t heard the Black Jiao King’s voice, continued with his eyes shut, persistently working to channel and dissipate the energy, a celestial circuit forming again and again in his Dantian, sending waves of energy out from within his body.

"You, go to the entrance and keep watch. Don’t let anyone see me," Yusuf Zuck ordered in a solemn voice.

"Yes," the Black Flood Dragon King immediately ran to the door, alert to any outside disturbances.

In about three minutes, the Six-Fingered Ape’s aura retracted, and it spat out a Golden Core from its mouth. The Golden Core exploded, transforming into an extremely small monkey-shaped fetus.

"Phew~" It opened its mouth and swallowed the fetus in one gulp, then let out a long howl to the heavens.

"Hmph!" Yusuf Zuck suddenly snorted coldly at this moment, then with a flick of his finger, the Eight Blood Pearls in his mind trembled simultaneously. A sucking force was transmitted deep into the soul of the Six-Fingered Ape. This was the Supreme Method of controlling life and death. If he were to retract the Purple Droplet from the body of the Six-Fingered Ape, the ape’s death would be certain!

"Don’t, Master please don’t!" The Six-Fingered Ape shrieked while clutching its head. The top of its head even began to emit green smoke, as if something inside its body was burning!

"Hmph." Yusuf Zuck snorted coldly again and withdrew his finger. The Six-Fingered Ape then knelt on the ground, gasping for breath. In just that instant, it was drenched in sweat, and the sweat had turned to blood!

This was a lesson from Yusuf Zuck because although the Six-Fingered Ape had established a soul connection with him, it failed to kneel and acknowledge him immediately, even daring to scream. Without some discipline to feel the pain, the ape would still think itself the king!

"Master, Jyro Dickson pledges loyalty to you..." The Six-Fingered Ape prostrated on the ground, its whole body lying flat. It placed its head upon Yusuf Zuck’s feet—a gesture of the highest protocol amongst the Water Ape Tribe. In this moment, it was utterly submissive.

It wasn’t just because Yusuf Zuck could control its life and death or because he had helped it with the Feather Transform. It was the imprint in its soul, an imprint of obedience, submission, and admiration.

As if its soul had been cleansed anew, its bones, blood, and the depths of its soul now bore the indelible mark of loyalty.

Indeed, Yusuf Zuck’s Purple Droplet did cleanse and purify, washing away the filth within the body and purifying the other’s soul, creating a consciousness of obedience that felt innate, absent any thought of rebellion. This was the marvel of the Purple Droplet!

"King, King, disaster has struck..." It was at this point that a cry of alarm came from outside the cave, as if many were rushing over.

Yusuf Zuck quickly became Invisible, and the Six-Fingered Ape leaped up, with the Black Flood Dragon King raising its eyebrows.

"What is so urgent that you panic? Speak swiftly!" the Six-Fingered Ape bellowed.

Five figures rushed into the cave entrance, all of them Demon Cultivators in the Condensing Pill Realm. As soon as they entered the cave, they knelt down together and said, "King, a large group of human cultivators is attacking, challenging us on the sea surface!"

"Oh? They’ve come again?" The Six-Fingered Ape slammed the table forcefully, "Good, I’ll show them right now... huh... You all go out first. I’ll meet with them shortly." The Six-Fingered Ape suddenly waved his hand.

"Yes," the five immediately acknowledged and then swiftly left.

"Master, the humans have come to challenge..." The Six-Fingered Ape felt somewhat awkward since his new master was also a human. He would now have to follow the new master’s orders. If his new master didn’t allow him to kill humans, then he’d only be able to obey!

"Who exactly are they? From which sects?" Yusuf Zuck inquired.

"They are from the Demon Hunting Chamber of Commerce and the Saint Dragon Pavilion. These past few days, I have battled them three times!" replied the ape.

Yusuf Zuck nodded, thought for a moment, and then suddenly said, "Clayton Zuck, go find out the full situation and report back to me. From now on, I’ll help you lot with your fights, but there has to be rules to this!"

"Moreover, starting tomorrow, I’ll begin Monster Collecting. You two will assist me!"
