He Was Not a Good Man

Li Banfeng calmly looked at the hunter. "Speak up, are you Lin Li?"

The hunter had no answer.

On Blood Tooth Mountain, lying is punished.

With so many rocks on the ground, if the hunter wasn't Lin Li, he could very well have been seriously injured by the falling rocks.

Even if they weren't seriously injured by the falling rocks, it would still give Li Banfeng an opportunity to launch a sneak attack.

After a long silence, the hunter asked Li Banfeng, "How did you figure that out?"

Li Banfeng did not answer; he did not want to explain too much to the other party.

The Dripping Blood Tooth Monster is a very difficult name to pronounce.

How tongue-twisting is it?

If you repeat it a couple of times, Li Banfeng will stumble over his words.

Even Li Banfeng was confused. Hunters' speech was already unclear, so how difficult would it be for them to speak?

It is perfectly normal to refer to the Dripping Blood Tooth Monster as simply the Blood Tooth Monster.

Li Banfeng has always been referred to as Blood Tooth Monster.

But the hunter didn't do that. Although his speech was unclear and difficult to pronounce, he sometimes said Blood Tooth Monster, and sometimes he insisted on saying Dripping Blood Tooth Monster.

When asked about the monsters on the mountain, he said there were only the Dripping Blood Tooth Monster.

When talking about the monsters' activity range, he said that Blood Tooth Monster cannot go down the mountain, but he didn't say that Linli Monsters cannot go down the mountain.

He was telling the truth, but he distinguished between the Dripping Blood and the Blood Tooth Monster.

When Travel Cultivator and venturing out into the world, one must be extremely careful with every step. Li Banfeng certainly wouldn't overlook this unusual phenomenon.

Seeing that Li Banfeng didn't answer, Profuse Monster asked again, "It's rare for us to meet, and it's inevitable that we'll fight to the death. Can we be honest with each other before we start? You know I'm Lin Li, so why did you ask me to be your guide?"

Li Banfeng still did not answer.

At that time, he had not yet confirmed the other party's identity, but only suspected that the other party had malicious intent.

The basis for the suspicion is that Li Banfeng noticed him when he appeared beside him.

Based on this, it can be inferred that this is a character who is very good at ambushes, and is likely an outlier in the new territory.

If Li Banfeng's speculation is wrong and the other party has no malicious intent, then it's even more appropriate to hire him; having a guide can't hurt.

If the opponent is a monster, it's better to keep it in front of you than to wait to be ambushed.

Of course, Li Banfeng couldn't force the hunter to agree if he didn't, but he believed that the hunter couldn't resist the temptation of money and the Strange Monsters couldn't resist the temptation of food. Having stayed in the new land for a long time, Li Banfeng was no stranger to these two types of creatures.

Linli asked again, "You knew I was going to kill you, so why were you still following me?"

This time, Li Banfeng replied, "If I don't follow you, how can I avoid the Blood Tooth Monster?"

Linli said she needed to avoid the Blood Tooth Monster, and that was the truth.

He did indeed avoid the Blood Tooth Monster along the way.

The exact reason why Linli avoids the Blood Tooth Monster is unknown, but Li Banfeng has a general guess.

As for whether the prediction is accurate, we'll verify it later.

Linli laughed, "You think you can survive by avoiding the Blood Tooth Monster? Do you know why I brought you here?"

Li Banfeng nodded and said, "I know, because this place is not a good place to escape."

Surrounded by weeds and with rocks underfoot, this unusual terrain made escape difficult.

Lin Li looked at Li Banfeng and said, "I know you're Travel Cultivator. Do you think your running speed is exceptionally good? Why don't you try running one?"

Li Banfeng didn't rush to run. He looked at Lin Li and asked, "Why are you hiding from the Blood Tooth Monster?"

Is it because he always steals your food, and you can't beat him in a fight?

You were at the foot of Blood Tooth Mountain, claiming to be a hunter—and that wasn't a lie; you truly were the hunter, and I was your prey.

But why did you advise me not to go up the mountain? Did you want to wait until I left Blood Tooth Mountain before you attacked me? Were you afraid your prey would be stolen?

Are you that afraid of the Blood Tooth Monster? He's at the fifth level of cultivation; you're definitely not as strong as him, at most only at the fourth level, or perhaps not even that?

His eyes flashed with a cold light; those words struck a nerve.

Li Banfeng guessed correctly; he originally didn't want to take action on the mountain.

He was genuinely afraid of the Blood Tooth Monster.

His range of movement is larger than that of the Blood Tooth Monster, but he is indeed no match for the Blood Tooth Monster.

Li Banfeng then asked, "Blood Tooth Mountain is your territory, so why does the Blood Tooth Monster always bully you?"

Lin Li gritted his teeth, enraged by Li Banfeng: "You don't need to use this divisive tactic, it won't work."

"Useless? I think it's quite useful. You're not that much weaker than the Blood Tooth Monster, are you? You can kill the Blood Tooth Monster if you find a helper."

Linli gritted her teeth and said, "Shut up!"

Li Banfeng continued, "You don't want to kill him? You definitely do! Do you think we can kill him if we join forces?"

"Shut up!" Lin Li, extremely enraged, was ready to kill Li Banfeng immediately.

No matter how much he hated the Blood Tooth Monster, he would not listen to the instigation of a stranger.

Although what the other party said was true.

Li Banfeng continued, "Once you kill the Blood Tooth Monster, Blood Tooth Mountain will be your territory!"

"Shut up!"

"Finding a helper isn't easy, so you should cherish this opportunity."

"Shut up!"

"With an ally right in front of me, I also want to kill the Blood Tooth Monster."

"I told you to shut up!"

"I'm a good person, I can help you!"

"I'll let you..."

Bang!

Just as Lin Li rushed toward Li Banfeng, a rock suddenly exploded, and the rubble cut several wounds on his body.

He certainly wouldn't fall for Li Banfeng's scheme to sow discord.

He waited patiently for his opportunity to strike.

But he didn't expect that Li Banfeng didn't use any divisive tactics at all.

He didn't expect Li Banfeng to suddenly lie.

"I can help you." That's a lie.

This is the first step in our tactics: lying!

After telling a lot of truths, Li Banfeng suddenly blurted out a lie, catching Lin Li completely off guard.

"I genuinely want to help you, I never intended to kill you!" Li Banfeng blurted out another lie.

Bang bang bang!

This lie was completely contrary to Li Banfeng's true thoughts. The rock explosion was extremely violent, and both Lin Li and Li Banfeng were injured.

"I genuinely want to be your friend; I've never intended to harm you!"

Rumble!

Dust flew everywhere, and rubble kept exploding.

Linli covered her head and curled up on the ground.

This person is insane!

This is on a mountain!

The explosions on the mountainside were much more violent than those at the foot of the mountain.

He even told such a shameless lie.

Linli didn't understand Li Banfeng's thoughts, thinking he wanted to die together with him.

That madman is dreaming!

Blood Tooth Mountain was Linli's territory, and Linli knew how to avoid the shattered rocks, so he wasn't seriously injured.

But through the smoke and dust, he could see that Li Banfeng's injuries were not serious.

Down the mountain, Li Banfeng kept using lies to ignite the rocks, making Linli think that Li Banfeng was going crazy.

Li Banfeng wasn't crazy; he was probing the location of the explosion and the trajectory of the flying debris.

He was certainly not as familiar with Blood Tooth Mountain as Linli, but thanks to Travel Cultivator's footsteps, he didn't suffer too much loss.

So what was his purpose in doing this?

Do you just want to trap Linli?

Linli is trapped now, why isn't Li Banfeng running away?

He was furious and about to get up when he suddenly noticed a captivating aroma of wine.

Where does the aroma of wine come from?

It seems to come from him.

This is the second step in the tactic: sprinkling wine.

While the rocks were exploding, they splashed wine on Linli.

However, this tactic was difficult to execute, and Li Banfeng also had to avoid the rocks, so he didn't have a chance to spill the wine.

But he didn't need to do it himself; the Wine Gourd was extremely intelligent and knew when to do what.

The wine had already been poured while Li Banfeng was dodging the rubble.

The Wine Gourd gave a warning. "Little brother, set it on fire!"

Li Banfeng lit a match on his pants and threw it onto Lin Li's body.

Flames erupted around him, and he let out a bloodcurdling scream.

He rolled around on the ground, trying to put out the fire, but to no avail.

This is the Medicine King's medicinal wine, how could it be so easily destroyed?

Before he could find an opportunity to extinguish the fire, the Tang Blade was already drawn, piercing into the dripping chest.

Despite the excruciating pain, Lin Li took out the longbow from his back, quickly nocked an arrow, and prepared to shoot Li Banfeng.

The pendulum stepped forward and snapped the bowstring, then struck the dripping neck, vigorously sucking blood.

The third tactical step: grab your weapons and get to work.

Use everything you can to copy!

Li Banfeng threw out his sickle, which hooked onto Lin Li's head. He then took out his shovel, about to throw it, when he suddenly felt something wrap around his wrist.

It's a weed.

A wild grass as tall as a person stretched out its stem and tightly wrapped around Li Banfeng's wrist.

Li Banfeng the shovel to his left hand and cut the weeds, but two more weeds became entangled around his legs.

A large amount of wild grass was growing wildly towards Li Banfeng all around.

The fury is in the counterattack.

"Herb Cultivator!" shouted the Wine Gourd, sprinkling some wine on the weeds covering Li Banfeng's body.

"Set it on fire!" the Wine Gourd warned again.

Li Banfeng was really worried that he would be burned, but the Wine Gourd knew its limits. The flames only burned off the Cao Ye on Li Banfeng 'Li Banfeng body, without harming him in the slightest.

At the same time, a large patch of green grass wrapped around his drenched body, and the fire on his body finally went out.

A blade of grass tangled around the Tang Blade; he struggled to pull it free.

Linli didn't want to fight back anymore; he wanted to run away.

The sickle was pulled out, and so was the pendulum.

Despite having lost a lot of blood, been stabbed in the chest, had a hole slashed in the skull, and been covered in burns, Linli, despite his severe injuries, was still able to use his skills.

He was wrapped up like a mummy by a thicket of weeds as he moved swiftly through the grass.

He was going to find the Blood Tooth Monster.

He was terrified of the Blood Tooth Monster, and he also hated it.

But now Blood Tooth Monster is the only one who can save him.

Where is the Blood Tooth Monster?

It should be on the mountaintop, in his lair.

He will definitely save me, he definitely...

With a hissing sound, the Cao Ye on Linli's body slowly loosened.

He could no longer maintain his magical powers.

He could barely endure the burns and knife wounds, but the sickle was poisonous, and he couldn't withstand that.

That was a highly poisonous Blue Leaf Poplar, which had also been tempered by Copper Lotus. It's truly remarkable that it has survived until now.

Tang Blade rushed forward and delivered another blow to Linli's throat.

The pendulum seized the opportunity to move forward and thoroughly drink up all the blood.

The Wine Gourd chuckled and exclaimed, "Excellent wine! Excellent wine indeed!"

The magic weapon that Yao Lao gave us is truly amazing; the Wine Gourd played a crucial role in this battle!

Li Banfeng stared blankly at the Wine Gourd.

As Local Earth God, Yao Lao is a truly good person among good people.

He knew I would encounter danger on the road, and he told me how to avoid it, and even gave me methods to do so.

But there was one person who knew I would face many dangers, and that the situation would be much more dangerous than it is now, because I would know nothing back then.

He told me to make a phone call.

He suddenly appeared in front of me.

He dragged me into a life-or-death situation.

But he didn't tell me anything.

Prior to this, he had never even mentioned Pro State.

As for the things he gave me, I don't know if they were really from him, what his purpose was, or whether I could keep them.

After being stared at by Li Banfeng for a while, the Wine Gourd became a little hot.

"Young man, stop staring at your sister like that."

Li Banfeng smiled and said, "Sister is so beautiful, can't I just look at her?"

"How old are you to dare flirt with me?" The Wine Gourd sprayed a mouthful of wine onto Li Banfeng's face, as if he were a little angry.

Li Banfeng touched the Wine Gourd: "Blood Tooth Mountain is my witness, I truly admire you, sister."

The fact that the rocks remained still proved that Li Banfeng was telling the truth.

The gourd chuckled several times.

Blood Tooth Mountain is a really interesting place.

Li Banfeng carried the gruesome corpse back to his Portable Abode. The battle had been quite a commotion, so before the Blood Tooth Monster could catch up, Li Banfeng quickly descended the mountain.

Reaching the foot of the mountain, Li Banfeng whispered, "I didn't kill Linli."

Bang!

A rock immediately shattered.

Can't I even speak in such a low voice?

Then let's just speak louder!

Li Banfeng shouted towards Blood Tooth Mountain, "I'm a good person!"

Blood Tooth Mountain did not react.

Li Banfeng shouted again, "My Wife is a good person too!"

Blood Tooth Mountain remained unresponsive.

Li Banfeng shouted again, "My whole family are good people."

No rocks were blasted apart.

Where is that person?

Is he a good person?

Li Banfeng shouted again, "I don't think he's a good person!"

A gentle breeze blew by, and the mountains were completely silent.

Li Banfeng was very satisfied with the result.

He took off his top hat and brushed off the pebbles and dust.

He put his top hat back on, turned, and walked into the night.

P. S.: Who exactly is that person? Why isn't he a good person?
