Chapter 80: Chapter 79 Extremely Poisonous Bee King Jelly _1
"He actually escaped."
At this moment, Wei Xuan also hurried over from behind, looking quite surprised at the rapidly disappearing black-robed man.
Ling Chen didn’t dwell on it. It was commonly said that members of the Myriad Beasts Sect weren’t very strong. Since he had managed to get close to the black-robed man, the latter naturally didn’t dare to fight for long.
"Let’s go."
"Since the black-robed man has retreated, the Exotic Beasts he summoned should have dispersed by now." Ling Chen waved at Wei Xuan, and then they headed back the way they came.
A few minutes later, Ling Chen and Wei Xuan regrouped with the convoy.
"How did it go?" Bai Susu and the others quickly asked as Ling Chen and Wei Xuan returned.
"It was indeed someone from the Myriad Beasts Sect. He has fled, but we don’t know if he has any accomplices nearby," Ling Chen spoke calmly, his gaze falling on Lin Ya. "Lin Steward, why would people from the Myriad Beasts Sect attack us? Does your Blue Moon Commerce Association have a feud with them?"
"I’m not sure," Lin Ya replied, still smiling faintly. "People from the Demonic Sect have always acted erratically. They might attack us even without reason. Good and evil are irreconcilable. Young Hero Ling Chen, this is a great opportunity for you, as Sect Disciples, to eliminate demons and uphold justice."
"Lin Steward is correct." Before Ling Chen could respond, Kong Xuan suddenly stepped forward. He walked over to Lin Ya, his gaze sweeping over her impressive figure, then declared righteously, "Eliminating demons and upholding justice is our duty! So what if they’re from the Myriad Beasts Sect? As members of the Righteous Martial World, we should face difficulties head-on and exterminate evil. How can we retreat in the face of the enemy?"
Hearing this, Yuan Tianxing’s expression turned serious. He clasped his hands towards Kong Xuan and said, "Young Hero Kong is indeed a descendant of a renowned clan, full of righteousness. I, Yuan Tianxing, admire that."
"Not at all, it’s simply our duty," Kong Xuan said with a self-satisfied expression, then shot a sidelong glance at Ling Chen.
Ling Chen ignored Kong Xuan’s expression and shook his head. It’s not that I lack a sense of justice; I just don’t want to be used as a pawn.
"Then, the next time danger arises, we’ll be counting on you, Brother Kong." A faint smile touched Ling Chen’s lips. Since he’s so eager to play the hero, why should I stand in his way?
"Time is of the essence. Let’s set off as soon as possible," Yuan Tianxing instructed, and the convoy continued forward.
Ling Chen mused for a moment. Abandoning the mission here isn’t my style. I’ll follow them in for now and see what happens. I just need to be extra careful.
The Blue Moon Commerce Association probably wouldn’t dare to intentionally harm us Sect Disciples anyway.
After walking another ten or so miles, Ling Chen suddenly sensed a peculiar energy in the surroundings; a faint mist appeared in the distance.
The mist seemed to be distorted by some power, coiling like a Demon Dragon lurking above the valley and emanating a faint, sinister aura.
"We’re finally here! Let’s push on a little further, and we’ll complete the mission." A look of joyful surprise appeared on Lin Ya’s face as she spoke to the group with a bright smile.
Soon after, the group entered the Demonic Sound Valley.
The environment inside the valley was very humid, and the ground was muddy. Soon, a mine came into view.
"Elder Deng, we can proceed now." Lin Ya gestured to the several elders, preparing to enter the mine to investigate.
"Then we should patrol the surroundings," Ling Chen said, looking at the other three. Securing the area was, after all, their responsibility.
"Alright. Let’s each take a direction," Bai Susu and the other two agreed, nodding before quickly darting off in three different directions.
They could also explore the Demonic Sound Valley to see if they could find any useful medicinal herbs. After all, few people usually visited the Demonic Sound Valley, so it was quite possible that rare medicinal herbs grew here undiscovered.
Ling Chen also began to search the vicinity. As I suspected, Lin Ya is definitely hiding something from us. But since she adamantly refuses to say anything, it’s not appropriate for me to press further.
I’ll just do my part and guard this area properly.
As Ling Chen explored, he found, just as he’d suspected, many medicinal herbs growing in the valley. However, there were also some Exotic Beasts hidden in the shadows, launching sudden attacks.
Fortunately, these Demonic Beasts were not high-level, nor were they numerous. Thus, while a few people were injured, there were no fatalities.
At this point, his Lingtian True Qi demonstrated its unique qualities. He could attack with a Qi sword from a hundred paces away, with power comparable to a full-force strike from a Second Level Martial Artist.
SWISH!
After his Qi sword struck down the last two poisonous bees, Ling Chen became thoughtful.
It seemed the further he ventured, the higher the chance of encountering Exotic Beasts. The swarm of poisonous bees he had just dealt with had emerged from a hive deep within a basin. Their flight speed rivaled that of birds, making them difficult to evade.
Instead of retreating, Ling Chen quickened his pace and headed towards the area from which the poisonous bees had emerged.
There, he found an enormous beehive, from which poisonous bees were continuously streaming out.
As Ling Chen neared the beehive, a potent fragrance wafted from it.
That’s the scent of Extremely Poisonous Bee King Jelly!
As Ling Chen drew closer to the beehive, the sharp sound of rushing air suddenly cut through the quiet. Two poisonous bees shot out from within. These two were larger, mostly golden in color, and looked far more menacing and powerful than ordinary poisonous bees.
SLICE! SLICE!
With a wave of his sword, he dispatched the two golden poisonous bees and then carefully removed the beehive.
Inside the beehive was about half a liter of golden liquid. It was translucent and emanated a rich aroma.
This liquid was the Extremely Poisonous Bee King Jelly, a type of Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure that could greatly enhance one’s strength. Even a Martial Master Level expert would experience a significant boost in power after consuming this jelly.
He retrieved a Jade Bottle from his Heavenly Mansion Ring and began to carefully pour the Extremely Poisonous Bee King Jelly into it. This jelly was highly nourishing; not only could it improve the quality of one’s True Qi, but it could also enhance one’s appearance, making it an excellent item, especially for women.
It would be a great idea to take this back for Ling Yin or Xiao Muyu.
After storing the Extremely Poisonous Bee King Jelly, Ling Chen turned to leave and continue exploring another area.
"Ling Chen? From the looks of it, you seem to have had a good harvest." Just as Ling Chen was leaving the area where the bees were active, he encountered a graceful figure in white—Bai Susu.
"I had a bit of luck and found something," Ling Chen admitted. Everyone here was looking for treasures. While the Extremely Poisonous Bee King Jelly was good, it wasn’t an exceedingly rare Treasure.
"I also made some small gains." Bai Susu offered Ling Chen a charming smile and walked closer. "However, the biggest prize certainly isn’t with us. I wonder what the Blue Moon Commerce Association is really up to behind our backs."
"What do you suppose they’re doing that even attracted people from the Myriad Beasts Sect?" Ling Chen’s pupils contracted slightly.
"I don’t know. Why don’t we head back now? We might discover something." A glint flashed in Bai Susu’s beautiful eyes. Like Ling Chen, she had no desire to be used as a tool. The Blue Moon Commerce Association’s secretive behavior definitely meant they were hiding something important.
