Chapter 673: Chapter 672: The Purple Stone

The Black Jiao King left swiftly and returned just as quickly, bursting back into the cave and immediately announced, "The enemy has one Feather Transform, three Golden Cores, six Solidifying Pills, a total of ten people, and they are challenging us to a duel!"

"What does ’challenging us to a duel’ mean?" Yusuf Zuck had heard the term just now. Challenge to a duel? Was it a one-on-one fight or a brawl?

"Uhh..." Hearing Yusuf Zuck’s question, the Black Jiao King and the Six-Fingered Ape both had a mental facepalm. Their new master didn’t even know what a duel challenge was?

"A duel challenge means that both sides arrange their formations and then each side sends out one or several people to fight." The Six-Fingered Ape explained patiently.

"Oh." Yusuf Zuck had a sudden realization and then chuckled, "With that method of fighting, you lose more than you win, right?"

"Never won..." The Six-Fingered Ape said awkwardly: "Humans are too cunning. We’ve engaged in three duels these past few days. We lost seven with the Solidifying Pill, and not a single one of their side died."

"Pfft–" Yusuf Zuck almost spat blood. It was obvious. Humans seemed to have caught the weakness of the Demon Cultivators on purpose to do just that. Otherwise, if the Demon Cultivators swarmed in, how could none of their enemies die?

"So foolish, so damned foolish. You keep losing with this kind of battle, why do you even accept their challenges? They’re clearly exploiting your way of fighting!" Yusuf Zuck said with a bitter smile.

"But since they issued a challenge, how can we not accept the battle? They are fighting one-on-one; we can’t possibly send two people to fight them, can we? What if word got out? That would be so embarrassing?" the Six-Fingered Ape muttered.

"Your line of thinking is nothing but a shitty chivalrous spirit, to be commended for bravery..."

The Six-Fingered Ape immediately puffed out his chest. Yes, they are knights, warriors, not despicable cowards!

"But it’s just too damn foolish!" Yusuf Zuck suddenly burst out cursing: "Who is your enemy? They are your mortal foes, out to kill you, and you’re concerned with chivalrous spirit when dealing with the enemy? The only goal is to kill the enemy, to have them lie down while you stand, that is victory. Humans know you care about your face, they know when they propose one-on-one fights, you won’t refuse. That’s why they are depleting your strength with this method. Once most of your main force has been killed, they will swarm in and cut you down like chopping vegetables!"

"You’re concerning yourself with chivalrous spirit against these cultivators? In the end, you won’t even know how you died!"

"Damn those humans!" Both the Six-Fingered Ape and the Black Jiao King were not truly stupid. Once Yusuf Zuck explained it this way, they understood. And Yusuf Zuck was right. If they swarmed their enemies, some of them would have to die, instead of this situation where only their side was losing members, and none of the enemy died!

"We will follow the Master’s command!" The Six-Fingered Ape immediately bowed to Yusuf Zuck, and the Black Jiao King did the same!

"Hmm, how many do you have?" Yusuf Zuck smiled and asked.

"Nine with the Solidifying Pill, nearly two hundred at the Big Fetus Breath, four or five hundred at the Small Foetal Respiration, plus the two of us at Feather Transform!"

"Pass my order, command the nine with the Solidifying Pill to lead all the little demons at the Fetus Breath realms to set up an ambush a hundred li away, on their return path. If they see the enemy, regardless of their Cultivation Level, they should attack en masse. As soon as you see them, start fighting, whether they’re wounded or jumping around lively, kill on sight!"

"Also, afterwards, you go out and answer their duel challenge, and take on that Human Cultivator at the Feather Transform. Little Black, hide underwater, and when the Six-Fingered Ape is evenly matched with the opponent, you’ll burst out of the water and assassinate a Golden Core. Remember, you must kill one in a single strike. As long as you kill one Golden Core, you will have profited greatly from this round, got it?"

"Understood, assassinating a Golden Core is too easy!" The Black Jiao King immediately bowed in response.

"Six-Fingered Ape, your task is to entangle the Human Cultivator at Feather Transform, and prevent him from rescuing his comrades. And once Little Black has killed one Golden Core, continue to slaughter the Golden Cores. By then, they will definitely be thrown into disarray."

"Let’s start with this for now; I’m not sure of our enemies’ actual Cultivation Level. However, fighting this way, you’ll not be at a disadvantage!" Yusuf Zuck waved his hand.

"And, if possible to capture a prisoner alive, bring one back to me!"

"Go ahead." Yusuf Zuck had no interest in watching the Human Cultivators and Demon Cultivators fight. After waving his hand to dismiss them, he signalled that they could proceed with the plan.

"Thank you, Master!" The two bowed once again and strode out, also hastily ordering the minions outside the cave to set an ambush. The Black Jiao King set up the trap, and then the Six-Fingered Ape charged out.

Yusuf Zuck wasn’t worried about potential mishaps. This was the sea, the domain of the Demon Cultivators. The few Human Cultivators had only found a weak point of the Demon Cultivators to play their tricks. As long as the response deviated from the conventional playbook of the Human Cultivators, defeat was certain for the enemy!

"It seems like demon cultivators have always been suppressed by humans mainly because they’re incompetent, not as cunning as humans!" Yusuf Zuck shook his head, then sat down to drink and eat meat, which appeared to be a kind of fish, and smelled quite fragrant.

Not even forty minutes had passed before Yusuf heard howling and cheering from outside the cave. Shortly after, the Black Jiao King rushed in, followed by the Six-fingered Ape, who was holding two elixir cultivators in his hands.

"I’ve seen the master, master is wise and martial, with divine strategies! We’ve killed seven and captured two, hahaha!" The Six-fingered Ape burst out laughing, his body covered in blood, his face ferocious!

"Oh? The Feather Transform escaped?" Yusuf chuckled.

"Hmm, he’s too cunning. As soon as he saw the Black Jiao rush out, he ran away straight away, damn it!" The Six-fingered Ape cursed.

"Are you a human?" Just then, the two elixir cultivators being held by the Six-fingered Ape looked incredulous, a human being the master of two great Feather Transform demon cultivators? How was that possible?

"Slap them, knock out all of their teeth!" Yusuf said while munching on meat without even glancing their way.

"Hahaha..." The Black Jiao King and the Six-fingered Ape moved together, slapping left and right. After three or four slaps, the faces of the two elixir cultivators swelled up like pig heads.

"Just keep them for now, we’re going back to the Crystal Palace." Yusuf stood up and said.

"Does this seat also go?" The Six-fingered Ape suddenly asked.

"This seat?" Yusuf’s eyebrows shot up.

"Aaah, a lowly one deserves to die, a lowly one deserves to die, it’s a habit, master please calm your anger!" The Six-fingered Ape slapped himself hard across the ears.

"From now on, you will be called Cade Zuck. The term ’this seat’ suits me quite well, this seat... this seat, haha, you two bring the two humans and follow this seat back to the Crystal Palace, Little Black, transform!"

"Yes, master!" The Black Jiao jumped to the entrance of the cave, and with a shake of his body, he completed his transformation!

Invisible leaped up onto him.

The Six-fingered Ape, holding the two humans, immediately followed suit, commanding the other minor demons to stay at home and not to wander.

"By the way, master, we got lots of loot, including human elixirs, weapons, and even Solidifying Pills, exotic treasures, and so on. They’re all in my ring!" the Black Jiao King said as he swam along.

"What kind of exotic treasures?" Yusuf asked, curious.

"There’s a purple peculiar stone that was hidden on a Golden Core human, it emits an unknown energy; neither I nor the Six-fingered recognize it!"

"Oh? Bring it here for me to see. But keep those Solidifying Pills, elixirs, and weapons for me as well. Your two madams need to cultivate and will need a lot of elixirs."

"Yes, here it is, master, catch!" While responding, the Black Jiao King shot an object from the top of his head, a purple, diamond-shaped stone.

However, as soon as Yusuf saw the stone, the Blood Beads in his mind started throbbing violently!

"Fuck!" Yusuf yelled, reaching out his hand, and the purple stone instantly fell into it!
