Chapter 126: A Futile Attempt

“Ye Xuan, I want to apologize to you. Before entering the secret realm, I thought you were not worthy of being our leader. I only realized now that there it is true that there are people out there that are more powerful than I think.”

Zhu Wen, whose hair was dyed yellow, turned around to say to Ye Xuan seriously while they were flying.

“You don’t have to do that. You all did not know me in the beginning. It is natural for you all not to be willing to be led by me.”

Ye Xuan smiled and continued, “Otherwise, if you all were willing to submit to some random person, I would look down on you.”

“Haha, that’s true.”

Zhu Wen immediately felt much better when he heard Ye Xuan say that.

Meanwhile, the others all had smiles on their faces.

“Zhibai, do you know how many merit points we can exchange that Ancient Tomb Tree Demon for?”

Ye Xuan suddenly thought of something, and he suddenly turned his head to speak to Lin Zhibai.

Before leaving the battleground, he had not forgotten to take the Ancient Tomb Tree Demon that the Heavenly Punishment Thundercloud Wings had subdued earlier. He had kept the beast in his beast ring.

Meanwhile, he had also made use of the Tidal Treasure Snail’s treasure-seeking ability to comb through the Ancient Tomb tree Dragon’s lair.

He found five pieces of Ancient Tomb Soul Rock and an Ancient Tomb Grass in the end.

These items were all pretty decent evolutionary resources.

When he brings them back to school, he would be able to exchange them for merit points.

“A Bronze four-star beast has the potential to grow into a platinum-level beast.”

“Coupled with the fact that the Ancient Tomb Tree Demon has special abilities, we might be able to exchange it for tens of thousands of merit points when we take it back with us.”

A look of excitement appeared on Lin Zhibai’s face. “Ye Xuan, you helped the most in subduing the Ancient Tomb Tree Demon and these guys from the Eternal Night Clan.”

“Zhu Wen, I, and the others will take a bit of the point. Ye Xuan, you can have the rest of it. You won’t have to worry about merit points for a long, long time.”

He would not need to worry about merit points for a long time?

Ye Xuan smiled and shook his head.

Others might do that if they receive so many points.

But to him, tens of thousands of merit points would last him a few days.

That’s because he not only needed evolutionary resources to feed his beasts; he also needed a large number of resources to upgrade his beasts.

“Ye Xuan.”

After he said that, Lin Zhibai released a wave of psychic power so that those within a certain distance could only hear his words. He continued, “You said previously that these people from the Eternal Night Clan had come to kill you. Is that true?”

“That’s right.”

Ye Xuan nodded. “I was on the Ancient God Planet previously and had killed a great number of people from the Eternal Night Clan. Videos of that have also been leaked.”

“Furthermore, think about this carefully. When we fought with them, the way they set up their beasts- don’t they look like they are trying to guard against beasts that can suddenly appear among them?”

Hmm?

Lin Zhibai’s mind whirled when he thought about what Ye Xuan had said.

He thought about it carefully and realized that things did indeed happen as Ye Xuan had said.

“These guys!”

When he thought of that, Lin Zhibai looked down at the seven Eternal Night Clan members who were trapped in the golden web in the White Flame Bronze Bird’s claws. A cold glint flickered in his eyes.

“If we had known this beforehand, we would have been more vicious when we attacked them. We should have killed some of their beasts and beat them up so badly they would be disabled after that!”

Lin Zhibai said, gritting his teeth.

“There’s no need for that. That would cause trouble for us.”

Ye Xuan laughed.

Then, he said seriously, “Furthermore, so what if we do that? It would just be considered a little argument.”

A little argument?

Lin Zhibai looked at Ye Xuan with a surprised expression.

He had not expected that Ye Xuan would call that a little argument.

Ye Xuan shook his head when he saw Lin Zhibai’s surprised expression. He said, “If we want to settle the issue with the Eternal Night Clan, we would have to resolve the root of the problem.”

“If we get into trouble fighting with just a few of them, it would be a complete waste of time.”

Ye Xuan said.

This was also what he truly thought so as well.

What he needed now was time.

When he became powerful, he would deal with the Eternal Night Clan if no one would deal with them then!

Anyway, if it were something that he found unacceptable, he would not hesitate to deal with it if he could do so.

When he heard that, a thoughtful expression appeared on Lin Zhibai’s face.

“Let’s go. We need to speed up and try to get more evolutionary resources in the Mini Netherworld Secret Realm before we leave it.”

Ye Xuan smiled when he saw Lin Zhibai’s expression.

“Yeah!”

Lin Zhibai agreed, and the group sped up slightly.

…

“Whoosh!”

In the World of Thunder.

While Ye Xuan and the others were traveling, the Heavenly Punishment Thundercloud Wings transformed into the Heavenly Punishment Soldier. It split itself and traveled among the thunderclouds.

Sometimes, it would train with its counterpart.

The World of Thunder could not only help to accelerate its progress in leveling up, but it could also increase its ability to learn various skills.

It had just broken through to the bronze level, and the level of all its abilities had decreased. He needed to train intensively right now.

He especially needed to train the Heavenly Punishment Soldier, the new skill it had just attained.

After reaching level 4 of this skill, it could even call out two Heavenly Punishment Soldiers.

This alone made it want to achieve this level as soon as possible.

He had to level up this skill to the highest level.

Of course, that was not just it.

The tyrannosaurus and the Tidal Treasure Snail worked hard at cultivating their skills in their respective worlds.

Especially the tyrannosaurus.

It had been the most powerful beast under Ye Xuan before this.

However, with the addition of the Thundercloud Lightning Wings and the Tidal Treasure Snail, as well as the Divine Wood Elf that Lil Wan had upgraded to, it instantly became one of Ye Xuan’s weakest beasts.

It was like a crazed devil during this period.

It would train all sorts of its abilities in its world the minute it had time.

“Ye Xuan, I will tell your mom and dad that you bullied me when we leave the Mini Netherworld Secret Realm!”

Lil Wan stood on Ye Xuan’s ears while they traveled, and only he could hear her voice.

“???”

Dark lines appeared on Ye Xuan’s face.

What was this?

When did he bully Lil Wan?

“Look, I am still in the Mid Dark Iron level, and you are already at the peak Dark Iron Level. Even Thunder has risen to the Bronze level. I think Tidal is going to reach it soon. Are you still going to say that you didn’t bully me?”

Lil Wan pouted, looking very upset.

“Oh, you’re talking about this.”

Ye Xuan smiled and said, “Didn’t I get Tidal Treasure Snail to find treasures for you so I can exchange them for evolutionary resources that are suitable for you when we return to school?”

“Hmph!”

Lil Wan ignored Ye Xuan.

She still had to wait until they got back to school.

How long more did they have to wait?

She had been extremely jealous when she saw how the Heavenly Punishment Thundercloud Wings had unleashed such powerful strength after it had leveled up.

She wanted to be just as powerful too.

“What’s the matter? Are you still not satisfied?”

“I had even planned to ask Ms. Lin to help after I get enough merit points.”

“I wanted to see if we can make the evolutionary resources that you will use in the future into the shape of lollipops. But since you aren’t satisfied, then forget it.”

Ye Xuan grinned to himself as he spoke.

“You dare!”

Lil Wan blew raspberries into Ye Xuan’s ear angrily.

When she saw that Ye Xuan did not react to it, it dove into Ye Xuan’s clothes.

It twisted and turned in his clothes, making Ye Xuan feel itchy all over.

“Alright, alright. Don’t go down… Hey, what are you doing… Lil Wan, listen to me… No… Don’t go there. My stomach is the most ticklish. I will do whatever you say, okay?”

Ye Xuan had relaxed a lot through the journey because he had managed to deal with the people from the Eternal Night Clan.

He did not mind playing around with Lil Wan as well.

However, Lil Wan’s face was a little red when she emerged from his clothes.

It was because she was angry.

She felt that Ye Xuan had mistreated her during this period.

She had tried her best to teach him a lesson.

…

Time passed.

It was now a few hours since Ye Xuan, and the others had first entered the Mini Netherworld Secret Realm.

During this time, Ye Xuan and the others had not gone anywhere else. They were going around Wanfen Mountain.

However, because Ye Xuan had the Tidal Treasure Snail, it used the snail’s treasure-seeking ability and circled Wanfen Mountain.

He led Lin Zhibai and the others around the mountain and took almost all the treasures hidden in it.

“Let’s go. Let’s go in this direction. There’s one last place here. When we get all the evolutionary resources here, we will go to another spot.”

Ye Xuan said while he led the others to a spot.

He had two main goals for entering the Mini Netherworld Secret Realm this time.

The first goal was to get the Thundercloud Lightning Wings to level up.

The second was to find the evolutionary resources in the Mini Netherworld Secret Realm.

He wanted to bring the resources back to school to exchange them for merit points.

He had already accomplished the first goal.

And he was almost done with the second goal that was finding evolutionary resources.

“Caw Caw!”

Just as Ye Xuan led Lin Zhibai and the others to the spot he had discovered, they immediately realized that a group of Um Demons was gathered at that place.

There were quite several Um Demons, numbering up to a few hundred.

The large group of Um Demons floated above the peak of the mountain in the distance. They bobbed up and down, forming a massive face that was looking at them. It was both wondrous and creepy.

A blood-red dress suddenly appeared with a flourish behind Um Demons’ group when Ye Xuan and his group approached. A pale-faced Nether Soul that was more than ten meters tall appeared.

After the terrifying Nether Soul appeared, it immediately fixed Ye Xuan and his companions with a frosty glare.

“M*there*cker!”

“Ye Xuan, something seems off here.”

“That’s right. Why are there so many Um Demons here? And why did they call out such a terrifying Nether Soul?”

Lin Zhibai and the others paled when they saw the sight before them.

They had gone through the entire Wanfen Mountain over the past few hours and had not encountered such a terrifying existence.

The Nethersoul in front of them felt even more powerful than the Ancient Tomb Tree Demon that they had encountered earlier.

They all felt that the woman in the red dress and the large group of Um Demons were not to be trifled with and wanted to back away.

[Thousand Mirage Um Demon: Three Stars

Level: Dark Iron (Peak)

Abilities: Floating, Creating Illusions, Nether energy attack]

Ye Xuan glanced at the woman in red when he heard what Lin Zhibai and the others had said, and he immediately determined the woman’s attributes.

This mutherf*cker…

Ye Xuan almost cursed out loud when he determined the woman’s attributes.

Even he had been shocked when he saw the hundreds of Um Demons in the distance and the woman in red.

However, he had not expected that this thing was just a fake.

Whoosh!

With that, Ye Xuan used his mind to call the Heavenly Punishment Thundercloud Wings out.

It turned into a ray of light and hurtled towards the woman in red with a loud crash.

Almost instantaneously, the Heavenly Punishment Thundercloud Wings arrived above the woman in white.

“Ye Xuan…”

Lin Zhibai and the others all paled when they saw Ye Xuan sending out the Heavenly Punishment Thundercloud Wings.
