"Are we going into the mountains now?" Jiang Fei asked as he looked at the setting sun.
"So what if it's getting dark? Mount Lebis is so big. You won't be able to find what you're looking for in a day. It's inevitable to spend the night in the mountains. Why can't we go in now? "Duncan asked.
"That's true. Let's go." Jiang Fei nodded. Then, the two of them left the small town and went straight to Mount Lebis.
"Don't you need to prepare anything?" Jiang Fei asked as they walked.
"We corpse collectors only bring things out from the mountains. It's embarrassing to bring things into the mountains," Duncan said in a disdainful tone.
"Not even food?" Jiang Fei asked.
"Are all you fairies so annoying? What food? Isn't it everywhere in the mountains? "Duncan rolled his eyes at Jiang Fei.
"I'm the employer, okay? Can't I ask a few questions?" Jiang Fei was so angry that he rolled his eyes. He had never seen such a rude guide.
"You are the employer, yes, but your money is only for guiding you. It doesn't include answering questions," Duncan said.
"Here, this is the money for answering my questions and chatting with me." Jiang Fei took out a large amount of money. He really did not care much about this. After all, he was ready to leave after getting all the ancient books. He did not know how many years it would take for him to come back again.
"I'm sorry, I'm not a prostitute in a brothel. I don't have this kind of business here!" Duncan said as he pushed Jiang Fei's hand that was holding the money.
"Hmm?" Jiang Fei was stunned. This Duncan did not seem to be an ordinary person. He actually did not want the money that was in his hands. This was different from the description of corpse collectors by the tavern staff.
"Why? Do you think that we corpse collectors are all mercenaries and will do anything for money? "Duncan asked.
"I was in the Leica Forest before. I don't know your profession." Jiang Fei laughed.
"That's true. If you were like those people and looked at us like that, I might not have brought you into the mountains." Duncan shook his head.
…
After that, Jiang Fei chatted with Duncan as they walked. Sometimes, when Duncan was in a good mood, he would reply to Jiang Fei with a few words. When he was in a bad mood, he would directly attack Jiang Fei. He really did not treat Jiang Fei as an employer. He was not polite at all.
After about two hours, the two of them entered the mountains. After entering the mountains, Turcan felt like he had returned home. All kinds of rugged mountain paths were like flat ground to him. Fortunately, the body that Turcan was using had some strength. Otherwise, he might not have been able to walk on such rugged mountain paths.
"Well, tell me, what are you looking for in Mount Leibis? Hunting demon beasts? "Duncan turned around and asked.
"No, I'm not interested in monsters, and I don't want to kill them," Jiang Fei said.
"Oh? Then why did you go into the mountains? "Duncan asked.
"For the ruins you mentioned!" Jiang Fei said.
"Ruins? What ruins?" Duncan asked with a blank expression.
"Alright, stop pretending. As a demon beast of Mount Lebis, how could you not know that there are ruins here? Besides, you just leaked it to the tavern, "Jiang Fei said in a bad mood.
"What!? What did you say?! "Duncan was shocked. He could not help but take two steps back.
"Alright, we're already in the mountains. Stop pretending. I already knew you weren't human. Why are you so nervous? I'm not human either," Jiang Fei said with a shrug. Jiang Fei shrugged. Although the host he was using now was very ordinary, he still had his Mind Power. As soon as Turcan appeared, Jiang Fei could tell that this guy's Mind Power fluctuation frequency was completely different from others.
Using his mental strength to investigate, Jiang Fei found out about this guy's background. Just like how Vicious Beasts could transform, the demons of this world also had this ability. However, the difficulty of Demonic Beasts transforming was much lower than the Vicious Beasts of the Five Skies.
According to the standards of the Five Skies, Duncan's combat power value was less than 100,000, which meant that he was only in the early stages of the Enlightening Realm. He could not even be considered the child of a low-level Vicious Beast. However, in this low-level world, he was already considered a first-rate expert and could transform.
"Who the hell are you?!" Duncan frowned and stared at Jiang Fei. Although he could feel that Jiang Fei's strength was not very strong, he could faintly sense a feeling of fear coming from Jiang Fei's body.
There was no basis for this feeling. It was just pure beastly instinct.
"I already told you, I'm the same as you. Neither of us are human. The only difference is that you're a transformed demon beast and I'm a demon." Jiang Fei shrugged and said, "You see, we both have the character 'demon' in our names. We can even be considered relatives."
"How did you discover my identity?" Duncan asked.
"Are you stalling for time?" Jiang Fei was slightly startled. His mental strength had already spread out and he could sense that there was a large number of demons rushing over from the surroundings.
It was no wonder that a large number of rangers and warriors died in this Mount Leibis every year. With a transformed demon beast like Duncan acting as a guide for those fellows, and with the cooperation of the outside and inside, those people's deaths were not unjust at all.
Looking at it now, those so-called corpse collectors were most likely not humans. They could all be transformed demon beasts. After all, other than the demon beasts themselves, how could other people come and go as they pleased in Mount Leibis?
These transformed demon beasts were active in the small town. On one hand, they were there to inquire about the rangers and warriors entering the mountain. On the other hand, they were there to sell off their equipment and buy some things that the demon beasts could use.
"Who the hell are you?" Duncan stared at Jiang Fei and asked.
"Who I am is not important. Bring me to the ruins, and this matter will be over," Jiang Fei said.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh …" At this time, many demon beasts appeared around the valley where Jiang Fei and the others were. These demon beasts were of different shapes and sizes, but most of them were in beast form.
"Alright, your people are all here, right?" Jiang Fei said to Duncan with a smile.
"You seem to be a little fearless. With your strength, I can torture and kill you a hundred times over. Not to mention that I have so many companions with me. What makes you think you can say such a thing to me so calmly?" Duncan asked with a frown. If it were any other time, he would have already ordered his subordinates to swarm Jiang Fei and eat him up. However, he vaguely felt that Jiang Fei was very dangerous today, so he did not dare to act rashly.
"Is that what I rely on?" Jiang Fei smiled and said, "Alright, if I don't show you what I'm capable of, I'm afraid you won't cooperate with me obediently."
"What are you doing?!" Duncan suddenly felt a dangerous aura, and his hair stood on end.
"Get down!" Following Jiang Fei's shout, Duncan suddenly felt as if his head had been hit by a heavy hammer. His vision went black and he instantly fell to the ground.
"Roar!" As soon as Duncan fell, the other demon beasts became anxious and rushed down from the hillside.
