Chapter 970: Chapter 968: Dealing with Diao Yiran! (5 Updates)

Jiang Long was a disciple of the Knife Dao Sect, wielding his saber skill with fierce and swift strength, remarkable in ability. He engaged in fierce battle with a group of Demon Beasts, all of which were above the sixth layer of the Human Elixir Realm.

Alone, he fought against seven Demon Beasts of the sixth layer of the Human Elixir Realm and one of the seventh layer. Although he didn’t come out victorious, he was not at a disadvantage either.

As for Lin Bai, Tang Bufan, and the others, with the addition of Lin Bai, his sword skill came into play, and he easily slaughtered a group of Fire Nimonkeys.

In the blink of an eye, more than a hundred Fire Nimonkeys of the Human Elixir Realm fifth layer were slain by Lin Bai and the others by half!

"Lin Bai, you’re too fierce. Your sword skill is so powerful. We don’t need you here anymore. Leave the next beasts to me for practice. Go and help Senior Brother Jiang Long, will you?" Tang Bufan said.

Lin Bai took a careful look and saw that there were still more than thirty Demon Beasts of the Human Elixir Realm fifth layer left. It wouldn’t be very difficult for Tang Bufan and the others to handle, so he nodded.

"Senior Brother Jiang Long, I’m coming to help you!"

Lin Bai rushed forward with swift strides, his sword striking fiercely at a Fire Nimonkey of the Human Elixir Realm sixth layer.

"Junior Brother Lin Bai, I don’t need your help here. I’ll hold off these Fire Nimonkeys of the Human Elixir Realm sixth layer. The rest of the beasts are for you to handle. After you’ve finished them, come join forces with me to wipe out this group of Demon Beasts," Jiang Long urgently said.

"You’re no match for the beasts here!"

Jiang Long said.

"That’s not necessary," Lin Bai chuckled lightly.

With a smile, Lin Bai charged forward, his sword’s sharp light slashing across the neck of one of the Demon Beasts of the Human Elixir Realm sixth layer, decisively slaying it with a single stroke!

"What!"

Jiang Long watched Lin Bai with a face full of shock.

The Demon Beast of the Human Elixir Realm sixth layer, which had fought him so fiercely just moments ago, how did it become a corpse with just one stroke of Lin Bai’s sword!

"Senior Brother Jiang Long, don’t be stunned. Let’s finish them off quickly. The commotion here is too great. It wouldn’t be good if it attracts other Demon Beasts," Lin Bai said indifferently.

"I underestimated your sword skill, Junior Brother Lin Bai, it’s indeed fierce. Alright, then let’s join forces and directly kill these Demon Beasts of the Human Elixir Realm sixth layer and above," Jiang Long admitted, shaken by Lin Bai’s strength for a moment before regaining his composure and joining Lin Bai to slay the beasts.

Half an hour later.

The group of more than a hundred Fire Nimonkeys were completely annihilated by the warriors of the Broken Blade Team.

"We’ve struck it rich!"

"We actually killed all these Demon Beasts!"

"This is great, coming to Nine Turtles Mountain was really worth it. With more than a hundred Demon Beasts of the Human Elixir Realm fifth layer, we should at least get a lot of points," they said excitedly.

"That’s right, we’ve struck it rich," the warriors of the Broken Blade Team said excitedly.

Jiang Long came over with joy, smiling, "Junior Brother Lin Bai, I didn’t expect your sword skill to be so rapid and fierce, capable of easily slaying a Demon Beast of the Human Elixir Realm sixth layer with a single stroke, truly remarkable."

Lin Bai chuckled, "Commander is too kind with his praise. But with so many beasts here, how shall we divide them up?"

Jiang Long said, "Dividing up the Demon Beasts is simple. First, we can either divide them up right here and then go back to War Soul City to sell them ourselves."

"Or you can give them all to me, and after I’ve sold them, I’ll distribute the points."

"However, we usually choose the former, to allocate the Demon Beasts right here. After going back, you can sell them yourselves."

"How does that sound?" Jiang Long asked with a smile.

Lin Bai nodded, "I have no objections."

Such an arrangement suited Lin Bai just fine. Fortunately, the Demon Beasts he had slain had not been drained of their Demon Blood. Once the corpses were allocated, Lin Bai could still absorb their blood for his cultivation.

Lin Bai also didn’t dare to absorb the Demon Blood so openly in front of the Broken Blade Team, as exposing the Devouring Sword Spirit would be a great danger for him.

"Then, since that’s the case, let’s allocate the Demon Beasts first, and then continue moving forward," Jiang Long said with a smile.

Soon, Jiang Long finished allocating all the Demon Beasts.

Lin Bai received two Human Elixir Realm Sixth Layer Demon Beasts and ten Human Elixir Realm Fifth Layer Demon Beasts.

Lin Bai was quite satisfied with this allocation.

Having helped slay several Human Elixir Realm Sixth Layer Demon Beasts and contributing greatly, it was only natural that he received such an allocation.

Tang Bufan, on the other hand, received eleven Human Elixir Realm Fifth Layer Demon Beasts since he had contributed much less.

After receiving the Demon Beasts, Lin Bai secretly absorbed and refined the Demon Blood.

"Too little, as expected, entering the Primordial World, one still needs to hunt Demon Beasts alone to continuously improve their cultivation," Lin Bai thought, shaking his head slightly.

He already harbored thoughts of leaving the team.

Sticking with the Broken Blade Team was somewhat restrictive and really prevented Lin Bai from making full use of his abilities.

After Lin Bai and Tang Bufan’s allocation of the Demon Beasts was complete,

Jiang Long then awarded Diao Yiran fifteen Human Elixir Realm Fifth Layer Demon Beasts, three Human Elixir Realm Sixth Layer Demon Beasts, and one Human Elixir Realm Seventh Layer Demon Beast.

"Huh?" Lin Bai was stunned. Since the beginning, Diao Yiran hadn’t lifted a finger and hadn’t exerted any effort, so why was she allocated so many Demon Beasts?

Lin Bai felt a touch of displeasure at Diao Yiran receiving so many Demon Beasts.

After all, she hadn’t contributed.

But what Diao Yiran said next truly angered Lin Bai.

Diao Yiran smiled and said, "Now that you all have been allocated Demon Beasts, hand over all the ones you received to me—three from each of you."

"Yes, yes, of course, it’s only right. Auntie Yiran has come to Nine Turtles Mountain with us, indeed she has had a hard time. Giving three Demon Beasts is only appropriate."

"That’s right, Auntie Yiran, here are my three Demon Beasts for you!"

"This is mine."

Hearing Diao Yiran’s words, the other Warriors began taking out Demon Beasts and handing them over to her.

Even Jiang Long, with a cold face, took out some Demon Beasts.

"You two, hand over the Demon Beasts," Diao Yiran said, looking disdainfully at Lin Bai and Tang Bufan.

Though Tang Bufan was reluctant, he slowly took a Demon Beast out of his Storage Bag!

Lin Bai immediately stopped Tang Bufan’s hand and asked, "Why should we?"

"You didn’t put in any effort in slaying the Demon Beasts just now, and yet the team leader, Jiang Long, allocated you so many. I was already upset about that, so why should I give you three Demon Beasts?"

Lin Bai asked coldly.

"You little brat, how dare you even ask why? Auntie Yiran is asking you for Demon Beasts, and that is her honor towards you. Don’t fail to recognize a good gesture!"

"That’s right, hurry up and hand them over, don’t delay our journey!"

"Auntie Yiran has tirelessly followed us from War Soul City to this Nine Turtles Mountain, how exhausting, how hard it must have been. Isn’t it right for us to give her three Demon Beasts?"

Several members of the Broken Blade Team looked at Lin Bai with faces of incomprehension.

Jiang Long said, "Junior Brother Lin Bai, just give them to her. We’ll slay many more Demon Beasts later anyway. One or two more doesn’t make a difference."

"Heh heh, heard that? The team leader has spoken, now give them to me," Diao Yiran said with a triumphant laugh.

Upon hearing this, Lin Bai scoffed, "What if I don’t?"

Diao Yiran snickered and said, "Then you’re probably asking for death! Ask your good friend Tang Bufan how he got that slap mark on his face."

Hearing Diao Yiran bring it up, Tang Bufan’s face instantly turned bright red with anger!

Lin Bai said with a cold sneer, "What? Do you also want to give me a slap?"

"If you don’t know what’s good for you, Auntie will grant you a few slaps," Diao Yiran said with a cold laugh.
