Teach Them a Lesson

The ape cries had barely faded in the distance when Ye Qiu had already crossed several stretches of forest.

After running some distance, the Ape King's miserable screams drifted over again from afar.

Maybe it really had been badly hurt!

Over the next while, after taking short breaks, Ye Qiu made use of the Sharingan's advantage to constantly provoke all kinds of Spirit Beasts.

Wherever Ye Qiu went, any Spirit Beasts he encountered were bound to suffer a beating. He practically wanted to dig up even the earthworms in the ground.

Along the way,

There were Giant Pythons that twisted and turned endlessly. After tangling with them for a few rounds, Ye Qiu controlled them into tying themselves into knots.

There were imposing Great Tigers that, under the Sharingan's hypnosis, turned into Little Cats that could not bear to leave their poop-scooping owner. They felt absolutely amazing to pet.

While others petted cats, Ye Qiu petted tigers. For a moment, it was hard to tell who the real tiger was!

There were also sturdy Black Bears. Lured in by honey, their paws were delicious. With a Sleeve Arrow in hand, Ye Qiu chased them all the way. "I'm Ye Qiu—remember that!"

There were even lecherous, disgusting Gale Demon Wolves, the chief culprits behind the Wolf Bandits. Against such revolting beasts, Ye Qiu aimed between their hind legs and unleashed a barrage. He swung a heavy hammer at their crotches, dealing them a crushing blow!

Castrate first, kill later, to show his disgust!

Before he knew it, he had already been in the Soul Hunting Forest for two days. Through all the battles of the past two days, Ye Qiu had basically confirmed that his Pupil Power could control Spirit Beasts up to nine hundred years old.

Thousand-Year Spirit Beasts were truly a little too much, and extremely unstable. When controlling a thousand-year-old Boa Constrictor, he had nearly capsized and gotten half his head bitten off. Luckily, he had moved fast.

However, Ye Qiu had also discovered that wounded Spirit Beasts became easier to control, especially when they were on the verge of death. It was simply too easy.

He already had a perfect plan in mind. Without needing to act personally, he could obtain a Purple VIP Area first Spirit Ring!

Standing atop a treetop, Ye Qiu looked toward Violent Ape Canyon, where he had stabbed the ape before, and nodded slightly. "Mm, that's a fine place to bury bones."

"Still, I should go find some helpers!"

Within Nuoding City,

Xiao Wu's eyes were a little red and swollen.

She could not find Xiao Qiu.

"Xiao Qiu, where exactly did you go?"

Xiao Wu held a bloodstained black ribbon in her hand. She had found it on a tree branch outside the city. She could not possibly mistake it—this belonged to Xiao Qiu!

Something must have happened to Xiao Qiu!

Clenching the ribbon tightly, she turned to glance at Tang San, who was secretly watching her from a corner of the street. Her gaze was ice-cold!

If anything happened to Xiao Qiu, Tang San must die!

She had made up her mind. Her intuition told her that the bloodstains on it were definitely connected to Tang San!

Ye Qiu had only been gone for a few days, yet this bastard already dared to strut around in front of her. Not only had he spoken badly of Xiao Qiu, he had even wanted to give her some Zhuge Crossbow. What a coincidence.

She folded the ribbon and placed it in the small pouch at her waist, then headed toward the engraving workshop where Ye Qiu worked. There was an elderly couple there; perhaps they knew something about Ye Qiu.

She quickly ran into a nearby alley and used the terrain to shake off the little bastard following behind her.

If Ye Qiu had not warned her before leaving not to hurt Tang San again, she would not have merely shaken him off. At the very least, she would have loosened his bones for him!

Tang San stood at the alley entrance, looking around. "Where's Xiao Wu? Can't she accept reality yet? Is Ye Qiu really that good?"

"It's fine. I'll keep waiting for you!"

Who was Tang San? Without Ye Qiu, he was the man closest to Xiao Wu!

He had all sorts of strange and unusual things. Xiao Wu was so curious that she would definitely be drawn to him!

While Xiao Wu was hurrying toward the engraving workshop,

A strange sight appeared in the Soul Hunting Forest: an eight- or nine-year-old boy was riding on the back of a six-hundred-year Spirit Beast.

It was a tiger-type Spirit Beast. Ye Qiu had gone to its lair and ridden it out.

He was controlling it as it carried him toward Violent Ape Canyon.

"Hiss..." Without a tiger saddle, Ye Qiu felt like his butt was about to be shaken into several pieces. Fortunately, it was not too far away.

A yellow gale seemed to sweep past the canyon entrance, and a man and a tiger appeared there.

With such a huge commotion, the Violent Apes inside immediately noticed them!

The Ape King's eyes widened at once. The human before it was the very bastard who had wounded it so badly.

Roar! The king's roar roused the Violent Apes into a frenzy. Using their hands as feet, they charged rapidly toward Ye Qiu.

"Little Tiger! Show them what you've got!" He patted Little Yellow's back, and it quickly sprang into action.

Its Tiger Claws struck wherever they pointed. Carrying Ye Qiu, it charged wildly through the crowd, scattering the Violent Apes and exposing the Ape King behind them.

"Hehe. You still haven't learned your lesson? I'll clean you up again today!" Looking at the Ape King, which had already gathered its strength, Ye Qiu felt that it was commendably brave. The impression he had left last time clearly had not been deep enough!

"Little Tiger, wreck that bastard!"

Roar!

Ye Qiu leaped down, rolled across the ground several times to disperse the force, then rose to his feet. Man and tiger both charged forward.

"Ugh, roar..." The Ape King in its berserk state was actually evenly matched with six-hundred-year-old Little Tiger. However,

Ye Qiu was the key to deciding the battle between them. If the Ape King did not look at him, he could not make his move.

Taking advantage of the moment, he slid beneath the Ape King and kicked straight at that sack of goods.

Ye Qiu's move, using the tiger to bully the ape, was truly underhanded. When strength was lacking, tricks had to make up the difference.

With one kick, the Ape King immediately exited its berserk state. Clutching its sack, it fell to the ground!

Controlling Little Tiger to hold back the other Violent Apes, Ye Qiu walked over to the Ape King.

"Tch, it'll be much more convenient to control it with an Illusion Technique like this. Otherwise, I'd have to jump up."

Blood-red light flickered in his eyes. The Ape King, which had originally been rolling around, stopped struggling, rose numbly to its feet, and stood behind Ye Qiu.

He controlled it to lead its clan out of the canyon. He was requisitioning this place!

The plan could begin now!

He spent some time dividing the bundle of explosives he had been carrying on his back into several portions and placing them around the canyon.

Clap, clap! He clapped his hands and summoned Little Tiger, which was eating. Mounting its back, he said, "Time to lure that Boa Constrictor over."

In the dense forest, a tiger fled desperately as bushes behind it rustled without end. A more than ten-meter-long Boa Constrictor burst out, and a faint stench filled the air.

That cunning human ahead had provoked it time and again. Even an uncle could endure it, but an aunt could not! In all its life, it had never seen anyone so arrogant!

"Hiss, hiss..." The entirely black Boa Constrictor flicked its tongue and twisted its body constantly. It could adapt to any terrain, and its speed remained steady.

Ye Qiu kept patting Little Tiger's back beneath him. "Giddyup, giddyup. Faster, faster!"

Roar. Little Tiger answered in a low voice. It had never been so aggrieved in its life. It was bad enough that there was no food included, but it also had to work like a horse. They wanted the tiger to run, yet would not even let the tiger eat its fill.

To stay alive, it could only follow Ye Qiu down this dark road. Besides, its movements were not even under its own control.

Ting, ting!

Sparks flew from the Boa Constrictor's forehead. Whenever it was about to give up the chase, Ye Qiu took out his Sleeve Arrow and fired two shots at its darkened forehead.

The damage was minor, but the humiliation was immense!

"Hiss, ha..." The Boa Constrictor opened its bloody maw and blew out a foul gust, swearing to tear apart and swallow alive the human who had provoked it!

Fortunately, Ye Qiu had been using the Sharingan to watch the route, doing his best to avoid places where people might be.
