The eighth floor of the God of War Pagoda.
This was a real space. Everything here was alive and not an illusion. There were demons, beasts, and other races. They were all real. They were in different territories and each of them was very powerful. There were a lot of Minor Saints. Once they discovered the human race, they would definitely launch an attack. They were the creatures that were trapped by the human race. They had an innate hatred for the human race.
A young man and a young girl were walking hand in hand. They didn't wander around randomly. Instead, they concealed their aura and carefully killed the nearby beasts.
After half a day, the two of them had already killed many beasts and obtained a lot of top grade herbs.
Now that they had gained something, they started to work very energetically.
"This is a Minor Saint beast. You go and lure it away. I'll take its things." Yang Wu whispered to Xuanyuan Huowu.
"Why am I the one to lure it away and not you?" Xuanyuan Huowu pouted and said unhappily.
"Because you are stronger than me. Your life-saving trump card is also stronger than mine!" Yang Wu replied.
"You are twisting words and forcing logic. You go and lure it away. I'll take the herbs it is guarding."
"You are the one who wants to follow me. You have to listen to me. There's no room for negotiation!"
"You stinky man. Why are you so ungentlemanly?"
"Be obedient and I'll give you candy later."
…
* Roar! *
Xuanyuan Huowu still listened to Yang Wu and lured the beast away. It was a single-horned bull. Its roar was like a tiger's roar. The vicious aura it released was abnormally strong. Its running speed was incomparably fast. It broke the surrounding trees and shattered the mountain rocks. If Xuanyuan Huowu's delicate body was hit by it, she would probably turn into a pool of blood.
Xuanyuan Huowu's speed was very fast. She flew like a phoenix and turned into a wisp of flame. The single-horned bull couldn't catch up to her.
Yang Wu quickly flew out and picked the herbs near the single-horned bull. Among them, there were two Minor Saint grade cow tendon vines that were extremely valuable.
"Big guy, I'll kindly accept your herbs!" Yang Wu didn't want Xuanyuan Huowu to face the danger alone. He waved the Ox Tendon Vine in his hand and shouted at the Single Horned Bull.
When the single-horned cow sensed the presence of a human in its cow nest, and saw that a human had taken away the herbs it was guarding, it was enraged again. It turned around and rushed towards Yang Wu.
Bang bang!
The Single Horned Bull ran like the wind. Its speed was many times faster than before. Before the bull arrived, there was already a powerful force rushing towards Yang Wu.
Yang Wu quickly slipped away, not giving the other party a chance. He chose a direction and used Swimming Dragon Steps to escape.
After using the Swimming Dragon Steps many times, he had already cultivated it to the acme of perfection. With the help of the Dragon Turtle Water Suppressing Stance, it was as if the soles of his feet were supported by the gods. His body flew like a swimming dragon, leaving only a series of afterimages.
Xuanyuan Huowu watched as Yang Wu lured the Single Horned Bull away. The corners of her mouth curled into a smile as she muttered, "You're quite loyal."
Xuanyuan Huowu turned into a flame and chased after Yang Wu.
Soon, she discovered that the direction Yang Wu was running towards was actually the residence of the Evil Demons. That place was filled with an extremely dense Evil Demon Qi. When the Single Horned Bull rushed into that place, Yang Wu's presence disappeared. Many Evil Demons rushed out of the encirclement and became the target of the Single Horned Bull.
"Where did this stupid bull come from? Get lost!"
"Food delivered to our doorstep. Let's slaughter it."
… …
The Evil Demons were also very fierce. They were not afraid of the charging Single Horned Bull at all and launched attacks one after another.
A hidden figure quietly skimmed over to the Evil Demon Race's important area, and several precious herbs disappeared.
When those Evil Demons came back to their senses, they discovered that they had fallen into a trap.
"Damn it! Who stole my clan's Demonic Patterned Flower? I'll definitely tear that person to shreds!"
"That vicious bull doesn't have such ability. It must be someone from another race."
"I seem to have sensed a trace of a human's aura. Only humans would play such tricks!"
… …
No matter how angry they were, Yang Wu was already far away. How could it be so easy to find him?
Yang Wu had a Demon Core on him and could use Demon Qi to hide his human aura at any time. This was also the reason why the Evil Demons could not easily find him.
After obtaining the Demon Patterned Flower, Yang Wu was in a good mood. He hummed a small tune as he leisurely walked on the forest path. He was not worried about being attacked by Vicious Beasts. There were some gaps here that were absolutely safe. Not every place was filled with killing intent.
"Hey, you irresponsible man. Are you going to leave just like that?" A delicate voice shouted from behind Yang Wu.
Yang Wu was startled. He turned around and smiled at Xuanyuan Huowu. "How could I? Aren't I waiting for your safe return?"
"Hmph, don't think I don't know what you're thinking. There's no way you can get rid of this princess." Xuanyuan Huowu coldly snorted.
"You're the dignified seventh princess and I'm just a lowly commoner. How could I have the guts to get rid of you? You should be the one getting rid of me." Yang Wu winked.
These words made it seem like Xuanyuan Huowu had an affair with him.
Xuanyuan Huowu did not mind. She stretched out her hand and said, "Let's split the things we just obtained."
"What's the hurry? We still have to cooperate later. It won't be too late to split them when we reach the entrance to the ninth floor."
"Then for the next operation, you go lure those big guys away. I'll go pick the herbs."
"Uh … That's not too good. You saw it just now. We cooperated quite well. If we suddenly change the plan, it'll be disadvantageous to us!"
"Then why don't you divide the herbs?"
"Why don't you trust your teammates?"
"It'd be strange if I believed you!"
… …
This was the first time Yang Wu had met such a difficult woman. The other party was too shrewd, so he could only obediently take out the herbs and divide them equally. He also accepted that the next time he would lead the vicious beasts or demons away, she would be the one to pick the herbs.
Yang Wu originally wanted to use his prestige to scare the little girl. Who knew that the little girl would start crying, and he had no choice but to do so.
As a result, Yang Wu became the bait. He lured a mid-grade Minor Saint beast away. Its speed was much faster than the One-horned Bull. There were a few times when it caught up with him and almost devoured him.
Yang Wu was helpless. He could only use the Ice Blade Wings to kill the beast.
The Ice Blade Wings was invincible under the heavens. As long as it was used well, it could kill people without leaving a trace.
Yang Wu had killed a mid-grade Minor Saint beast. Its value was no less than any saint herb.
They had set the rule that whoever killed the beast would get the corpse of the beast. There would be no more splitting.
Yang Wu needed the beast core to concoct pills. This was the reason why he killed the beast.
Just like this, they took turns to lure the prey and obtained a lot of natural spiritual herbs.
Their journey wasn't smooth sailing. There was once when they met a high-grade Minor Saint beast. It scared them so much that they pissed their pants. That level was still not something they could provoke.
At the crucial moment, Yang Wu and Xuanyuan Huowu joined hands and slipped away from that terrifying beast.
At this time, the two of them were lying on a rock, exhausted. They were not far apart from each other, and this scene was very warm. They were like old friends who had gone through life and death together, lying down together when they were tired. It was so natural and comfortable.
"Hey, are you retarded? Why are you risking your life for that Concentrated Vanilla Grass?" Xuanyuan Huowu said with dissatisfaction.
Concentrated Vanilla Grass was a saint herb. Other than having a charming fragrance, its value wasn't very high.
Many girls liked it, but it wasn't worth risking their lives for it.
Yang Wu said with a smile, "What do you know? With it, you can concoct the highest grade Ageless Pill. It can let you maintain your youthful appearance without aging."
"Yo, as if you really know how to concoct pills." Xuanyuan Huowu said with disdain.
"Hehe, it's up to you to believe it or not." Yang Wu replied indifferently.
"Hey, do you think there's an Ageless Pill in this world?"
"En, there should be."
"If I can get an Ageless Pill to maintain my beautiful face, I'd rather lose ten years of my life."
"An Ageless Pill is worth ten years of your life? Are you looking down on the Ageless Pill too much, or do you think you're too precious? "
"You're really annoying. Who am I? I'm destined to be the most dazzling goddess. Ten years of life is already a lot. An Ageless Pill is only worth this price."
"I've seen many shameless people, but it's the first time I've seen someone as shameless as you!"
"Yang Wu, let me tell you, I'm not going to lower myself to your level. If you make me unhappy again, I'll call for people to kill you."
"A woman's heart is the most poisonous!"
… …
Xuanyuan Huowu was infuriated by Yang Wu, but she couldn't do anything. Her realm was a bit higher than Yang Wu's, but if they really fought, it would be difficult for her to gain an advantage.
After they had rested enough, Yang Wu came up with an excellent plan. He wanted to use his alchemy skills to attract those vicious beasts and demons, and solve the danger they were in.
Yang Wu acted as soon as he thought of it. He called for Xuanyuan Huowu to protect him and began to concoct the herbs.
He didn't want to concoct pills, but he wanted to concoct some herbs that could attract the vicious beasts and demons. He wanted to lure them away from the place they were occupying, and then they could take advantage of the situation.
"You really know how to concoct pills?" Xuanyuan Huowu looked at Yang Wu who took out the bronze cauldron and asked doubtfully.
"Don't be long-winded, I have a lot of skills. I'm afraid you'll fall in love with me if you see too much. Don't be like this, I already have someone in my heart." Yang Wu emphasized.
Xuanyuan Huowu's hair was smoking. She put her hands on her waist and glared at Yang Wu, and shouted, "Yang Wu, why don't you take a piss and look at yourself in the mirror? This princess will fall in love with you, are you delusional?!"
Yang Wu didn't pay attention to the angry Xuanyuan Huowu anymore, and quickly concocted some herbs into medicinal liquid.
Xuanyuan Huowu looked at Yang Wu's appearance when he was concocting pills, and knew that he indeed had the ability to concoct pills. She thought in her heart, "This hateful guy is really an alchemist, the heavens are really blind."
Xuanyuan Huowu had lived for so long, but this was the first time she couldn't subdue someone of the same age. She was so angry that smoke was coming out of her seven orifices, but she couldn't bring herself to hate him. Instead, she had a completely different feeling from others.
"Actually, this guy isn't that hateful!"
