Chapter 611: Timberdense Flowers (Part 2)

Kenny Lin replied, "Do you think there’s any use in keeping these Timberdense Flowers when they’re about to lose their lives?"

"Of course not... I understand," Amalia’s eyes changed as she instantly grasped Kenny Lin’s meaning.

With a broad smile, Kenny Lin said, "But we still have to wait."

Amalia also looked at the group of human cultivators.

Yes, they had to wait for them to become more desperate.

How desperate could they be?

When one realizes there’s no hope left, even if you place treasures before them, they won’t even glance at them.

It’s like a person walking in the desert and about to die of thirst.

Offering them a handful of gold coins wouldn’t be as appreciated as offering them a bottle of water.

The Golden Core cultivator was trying to handle two leader-level Devils alone, with one of them even stronger than him.

He had no chance of winning long ago; now he was just delaying his inevitable demise.

Amalia didn’t feel much sympathy witnessing this scene.

Both of them knew how dangerous Devil Battlefields could be.

These cultivators probably weren’t here for the first time.

They discovered so many Timberdense Flowers in the valley but foolishly didn’t consider the possibility that Devils might also find them.

Even more foolishly, they didn’t station anyone outside to keep watching it but just rushed in, only to be trapped and surrounded in the valley.

She didn’t understand what this Golden Core cultivator was thinking.

Perhaps he was momentarily lost in the sight of so many Timberdense Flowers and their nectar.

The young Golden Core cultivator was beaten so badly that he kept vomiting blood.

The two leader-level Devils seemed in no hurry to finish him off, they were toying with him like a cat plays with a mouse.

The Golden Core cultivator also realized this.

They had several opportunities to kill him instantly, but they didn’t.

His anger and resentment turned into deep despair.

The Devils were confident that they were trapped with no chance of escape.

Seeing their senior brother barely able to stand and covered in blood, the junior brothers and sisters behind him showed expressions of utter hopelessness.

They had come as a group of ten, and four were already dead.

Facing over a hundred warrior-level Devils, more than twenty times their number, it was impossible.

Even six of them fighting against twenty Devils each wouldn’t guarantee a victory.

The situation was far worse than they had anticipated.

Their senior brother couldn’t hold on much longer.

Once he fell, a single leader-level Devil would be enough to kill them all.

They had thought discovering a patch of Timberdense Flowers and the copious nectar they secreted was a stroke of luck, but it turned out to be a trap set by the Devils.

"Senior Brother..." Junior Sister Dai Xiuying came up behind the Golden Core cultivator, her voice trembling with fear, "I’m so scared."

Duàn Shaoqing’s eyes darkened.

He transmitted his thoughts to them, "I will charge out in a moment and create a path for you. Take the chance to escape. Later... let the sect avenge me."

"Senior Brother, how can we leave you behind? No, we can’t."

The other junior brothers and sisters shook their heads in immediate opposition.

"Listen to me. Otherwise, we’ll all die here," Duàn Shaoqing said sternly, "Right now, we need to save as many as we can. If we all die here, how will the sect know who the culprits are? How will they find them and avenge us?"

"Then you should be the one to escape. Your strength is greater than ours, so you have a higher chance of getting away."

"Enough," Duàn Shaoqing said, his face pale and ashen, "It’s my responsibility that you encountered this danger. If I hadn’t been momentarily blinded by greed and failed to recognize this was a Devils’ trap, I wouldn’t have led you into this peril."

He should have realized it sooner.

This small valley wasn’t particularly hidden.

Why had no one discovered it until now?

He had overlooked this crucial point, giving the Devils an opportunity.

This was why Duàn Shaoqing was willing to sacrifice himself—to atone for his negligence.

"Alright, listen to me. I’ll count to three, and you..."

Duàn Shaoqing suddenly froze, then his face lit up with joy.

"Senior Brother?"

The junior brothers and sisters saw his strange reaction.

Seeing him laugh and cry at the same time, they wondered if he had gone mad.

Duàn Shaoqing hadn’t gone mad.

He was overjoyed because he sensed the presence of another Golden Core cultivator.

Although there was also a Foundation Building cultivator, he disregarded that.

These two auras had appeared suddenly.

He thought it must be a Golden Core cultivator passing nearby.

They were saved!

Duàn Shaoqing didn’t have time to explain to his junior brothers and sisters.

Fearing the passing Golden Core cultivator might leave, he quickly transmitted his voice, "Friend outside, I am a cultivator of the Heavenly Dominion Sect. I am currently severely injured by two leader-level Devils. My junior brothers and sisters are with me. Could you please lend us a hand? We would be deeply grateful."

There was no response.

Growing anxious, Duàn Shaoqing glanced at the Timberdense Flowers behind him.

An idea flashed in his mind, "This valley is full of Timberdense Flowers, and there is a substantial amount of nectar. If you are willing to help us, I will give you two-thirds of the Timberdense Flowers and their nectar."

"Four-fifths," came the reply after a few moments.

Duàn Shaoqing was overjoyed and agreed without hesitation, "Deal!"

Four-fifths was fine.

At least the other party left them one-fifth.

If they didn’t survive, that one-fifth wouldn’t matter anyway.

Surviving this ordeal would be a great fortune amidst their misfortune.

Duàn Shaoqing felt a sense of relief at that moment.

"Be cautious. Besides the two leader-level Devils, there are over a hundred warrior-level Devils inside. One of the leader-level Devils has mid Leader-level strength."

"That’s not a problem," the person outside responded confidently.
