Those with Ulterior Motives

The humanoid Tree Demon's body trembled slightly, its miserable screams echoing across the empty earth, refusing to fade for a long while.

Yet no matter how it struggled, it was already too late!

The isolation formation shattered completely, and the instant the curtain of light vanished—

The humanoid Tree Demon seemed to have all its energy drained away in an instant, the life force within it rapidly bleeding away at an astonishing speed.

In the time it took to flick a finger.

Not a shred of life remained.

Only the shell of a humanoid beast was left, crashing to the ground with a bang.

"Th-this... what exactly happened? That beast just died like that?"

"Why worry about that? In this battle at Wuliu Plain, countless Second-tier Beasts died. These... are resources!"

"Huh? Aren't you afraid that senior will get angry and wipe us out with a single move?"

"They're only low-level beasts. Would senior even care about them? Besides, Wuliu Plain spans a hundred miles. With so much space, why do we have to crowd around that senior?"

"Damn it, you beasts, slow down! Leave some for me!"

Seeing the humanoid beast crash to the ground, the many cultivators watching from afar finally came to their senses.

For a time, the previously sparse sky had somehow gained another thousand figures.

Over a thousand streaks of sword-light cut across the heavens, avoiding Su Shi'er's location.

They flew toward the farther reaches of Wuliu Plain.

The great battle at Wuliu Plain had been blocked off by the isolation formation.

Within it, countless Tree Demons had died or been wounded.

Perhaps these meant nothing to Golden Core stage cultivators like Su Shi'er.

But to the many cultivators with only Foundation Establishment stage cultivation, they were all exceedingly precious resources.
