Chapter 177: Chapter 177: People Don’t Come on Their Own, Beasts Leave on Their Own
"We’ll just stay put and do nothing, let’s see what kind of trick he can pull off."
Huang Fei sneered inwardly and then made up his mind.
He looked toward Xiao Zhan and immediately revealed a disdainful expression, craning his neck as if he saw through all of Xiao Zhan’s schemes.
Xiao Zhan, upon seeing this, actually felt somewhat surprised in his heart.
"This Huang Fei is somewhat cautious at heart, so vigilant. If he doesn’t come over, we will indeed be in a bit of a difficult situation."
"What’s the problem? If he doesn’t come over, we’ll just go to him," Ye Youlong said.
"Right, if the mountain won’t come to me, I’ll go to the mountain!"
Xiao Zhan felt that Ye Youlong made sense.
He immediately grabbed the Death Demon Scythe and charged toward the trio that included Huang Fei.
But at that moment, Ye Youlong suddenly cried out in an urgent tone, interrupting him.
"What are you doing!?"
"Fighting with them, drawing them in, isn’t that what you said?" Xiao Zhan ceased his attacking movements.
"You can be really dumb when you try to be."
Ye Youlong sighed speechlessly, as Xiao Zhan’s intelligence seemed to come and go in waves.
"What do you mean?" Xiao Zhan was confused.
Ye Youlong said, "Those two Fourth Grade Spirit Masters, we’re still not clear about their Spirit Manipulation Technique skills. Going in blindly is too risky. Moreover, if they directly activate their Battle Spirit Form, we won’t even be able to run."
"So, instead of confronting them with unknown risks, it’s better to target the Shadow Giant Lizard, which we know more about. And with the protection of scent, our safety is much higher."
Hearing this, Xiao Zhan immediately understood and an awkward, stiff smile appeared on his face.
He had been too careless and hadn’t thought that far, but fortunately, Ye Youlong reminded him.
Truly, husband and wife working together makes the job easy.
But Xiao Zhan wasn’t stupid. Even without Ye Youlong’s reminder, he wouldn’t be foolish enough to actually brawl with two Fourth Grade Spirit Masters; at most, he would just tease and provoke them from a safe distance.
However, Ye Youlong’s suggestion was clearly safer.
"I’m not dumb, I was just testing your quick-wittedness. It’s clear, you are a qualified wife, a woman who silently supports me on my path to success," Xiao Zhan refused to lose face.
It was his negligence, but so what?
As long as he didn’t admit to his own problems, then it means the problems are with others.
Xiao Zhan’s shamelessness reached new levels in Ye Youlong’s view. Back when she chose Xiao Zhan, her first impression was that he was a rather intelligent and mature man, so how had he become such a fool now?
If she had known he was like this from the beginning, she would’ve partnered with him way earlier.
It would’ve made her happy for several more days.
"I accept your compliment, I am indeed a very good woman, and your taste isn’t bad. But could you now please act quickly, as I do not wish to stay here for even another moment."
"Roger that!"
With the wife’s orders, Xiao Zhan immediately sprang into action.
He looked at Huang Fei and raised a middle finger, "Huang Fei, the cuckold, top-notch, but still a softie! From now on, you shouldn’t be called Huang Fei, but Green Fei instead!"
"I’m standing right here and you don’t dare to touch me, what use are you? Jiang Xian’er, your taste is really going downhill, avoiding excellence and precisely choosing the worst possible options!"
"Haha, if you dare not approach, then this young master is leaving, goodbye!"
After a bout of mockery, Xiao Zhan leaped down from the rock without glancing back.
Holding the Death Demon Scythe, he dashed swiftly toward the Shadow Giant Lizard.
Behind him, Huang Fei, upon hearing these words, immediately turned green with rage, and the hand clenching the Snow Lotus Sword trembled uncontrollably.
A cuckold?
I’ll cuckold your mother!
Your whole family wears green hats!
Xiao Zhan, you just wait for me.
Once I catch you guys, I swear I’ll cuckold you right in front of your eyes!
"Should we pursue, Young Master?" asked a bodyguard seeing Huang Fei’s face turning green with anger.
"Don’t chase!"
Impatience ruins grand schemes.
The more Xiao Zhan agitates him, the clearer it is that there’s a trap.
He absolutely must not fall for it!
Xiao Zhan attacked the Shadow Giant Lizard, realizing that Huang Fei hadn’t followed, Xiao Zhan’s opinion of his cowardice notched up further.
But none of that mattered; staying put was akin to courting death.
Soon, Xiao Zhan saw a black giant lizard, bigger than three elephants combined, sprawled on the ground, snoozing away.
It seemed the scent on Xiao Zhan had irritated it; waking up in displeasure.
Opening its eyes to a figure wielding a weapon and attacking it.
A slash of black Scythe Energy came down upon its head, sparking upon impact, without even scratching the outer scales.
The Shadow Giant Lizard’s lantern-sized eyes instantly burned with rage.
Opening its fould, slimy mouth, it prepared to attack Xiao Zhan.
However, the smell enveloping Xiao Zhan made it halt its move mid-action, the flame of its rage dimming, revealing an instinctual sense of disgust.
When it looked at Xiao Zhan again, the anger was still there, but there was now an evident intent to flee the area.
"This herb really does the trick."
Xiao Zhan voiced his admiration.
Then quickly adjusted his stance and angle, attacking the Shadow Giant Lizard while also steering its escape towards Huang Fei’s direction.
If it fled the wrong way, that would be no fun at all.
The instinctual restraint left the Shadow Giant Lizard without a way to counter Xiao Zhan, truly wishing to kill him, but the mere whiff of that scent made it want to retch.
It tried to crush Xiao Zhan with tail swipes at the rocks.
And tried to poison him from a distance with its venom spit.
Yet all these attacks barely scratched Xiao Zhan.
Having no choice, it decided to retreat.
And the direction it retreated towards was exactly where Huang Fei was.
Seeing this, Xiao Zhan continued to press on.
The Shadow Giant Lizard, step by grudging step, grew ever more furious – if you’re just passing by, then just freaking go, I’m even giving you the way, so why the hell are you chasing me?
Could it be you want to take over my home?
But, I don’t even have a wife, do I?
It grew exasperated – how could humans be such scum, it was desperate to tear Xiao Zhan to shreds.
Huang Fei and his two companions were resting when they suddenly heard noises in the distance, immediately they became alert.
"Young Master, should we go check it out?" a bodyguard asked worriedly.
Huang Fei’s face was grim, the noises felt odd to him, but after pondering for a moment, he chose to hold his ground.
"This is all Xiao Zhan’s plot, aiming to lure us over. Let’s stay put, we cannot fall into his trap."
"But Young Master, I think I heard the sound of a demon beast."
"That’s even more reason not to go. He must be using the demon beast to kill us again. Just didn’t expect that this time, the beast wouldn’t listen to him, and now he’s got himself in hot water!"
