Chapter 2475 - 1437:
For now, they don’t have the strength.
They haven’t sparred yet either.
Simply because their level is not high, they cannot fight against those of higher levels.
Lai Jianlin and his wife cooperate with great tacit understanding.
They command their team into formations, making it so that at first, the demons and demonic beasts outside can still see their figures, but later they can’t see them at all.
The two protected teams have become phantoms that others can’t see.
Maybe this is them using the formation to confuse their opponents.
The two teams keep moving, and can’t even remember how many places they’ve been to these past few days; they just discovered that this Magical Treasure is vast.
Although there are no big mountains, there are rivers and lakes.
Though they don’t know where those demonic beasts live.
Because the demonic beasts don’t appear at night.
As for how ghosts appear at night?
Why do ghosts appear during the day too?
For those ghosts who have trained to a certain strength, they can absorb sunlight energy during the day.
These fierce ghosts are indeed ones they cannot handle.
Fortunately, they entered a Magical Treasure that inherently has an owner and an Artifact Spirit.
Lai Jianlin eats three meals a day separately; the people cook food, they haven’t started fasting yet.
Inside this Magical Treasure, there are also many demonic beasts that can be eaten, and one day they even came across an orchard.
They can exchange fruits for other fruits there.
They can even have a fruit feast.
...
The Monkey King initially, upon discovering those humans, would be afraid they’d come to steal their fruit, so they would fight.
Later, with the experience of exchanging fruits, every time a human cultivator arrives, they would say, if they want to eat fruit, they have to exchange something from their body, whether it’s fruit, wine, or even cultivation pills are acceptable.
Other than the three Monkey Kings, the rest of the monkeys are merely demonic beasts, not much stronger than those king-level demonic beasts.
Maybe even weaker.
These monkeys are powerful largely due to the support of these few Monkey Kings.
Before, in this Magical Treasure, there was no orchard.
Because their abilities weren’t strong enough to guard an orchard, having one would only lead to it being destroyed.
With the arrival of the Monkey King, a fruit orchard was planted here, and when monkeys came to steal fruit, they would be fiercely beaten.
Really given a good beating.
Also had their resources robbed.
The Monkey King’s overbearing nature, because of their own strength, as long as no one comes to pick their fruit, exchanging for items is allowed, so the owner couldn’t punish them.
Luo Yaxuan and Lai Jianlin conspired a bit, knowing that in this place the Monkey King has a contract with Jiang Tang, making him their superior’s Spiritual Pet.
Although the Monkey King and his subordinates are somewhat annoying, inherently ominous, a kind of wild and unruly annoyance, because they imitate humans, taking liberties and looking down on people.
Even those of us from the Mortal Realm are not looked upon kindly; if we weren’t teams from the Saint Sect, perhaps they wouldn’t compromise so easily.
Yet, their words are rather arrogant.
"You are my master’s subordinates, tsk tsk, such weak abilities? How can you be my master’s subordinates? My master really has poor judgment!"
"Exactly, exactly, with abilities like yours, not even better than my subordinates, you still want to act as managers in front of my master? You people are my master’s most valued subordinates, yet your strength really doesn’t measure up!"
"With such weak abilities, we don’t even want to bother, you with such weak abilities, going out to fight others, surely you’ll disgrace my master. How can you have the nerve to follow my master?"
These three Monkey Kings, whether their body is Monkey Immortal or soul is Monkey Immortal?
Previously suppressed, now out thinking no one can suppress them.
Thinking their master is so powerful, not only suppressing them with ability, but also using the Hell Palace’s Artifact Spirit to suppress them, not letting them leave this Magical Treasure.
Wanting to live freely outside is impossible, as their master doesn’t want them causing trouble.
With their ability, what trouble could they cause?
Even powerful old ghosts couldn’t defeat them.
They have to listen to their master’s words; being in the Hell Palace is rather dull because no one can defeat them. Without challengers, even those high-level demons are turned into cowards by them.
Meeting cultivators of weaker strength, who’ve they seen many batches of, if not fighting, then exchanging resources since they didn’t fight, a team won.
Now, the people they encounter, there’s no need to fight, just exchange.
Because the opposition’s ability isn’t enough to beat them anyway.
Perhaps to vent inner dissatisfaction, more sarcasm is added in their words.
Speaking with a mocking tone, not afraid of the other party getting angry.
Lai Jianlin..., even if you think like that, you shouldn’t say it out loud!
Luo Yaxuan, you are so straightforward, my subordinates are getting angry, and I can’t suppress it!
Both of them are not unbothered, but the other party has a point; their abilities indeed don’t measure up to these Monkey Kings.
In terms of ability and real combat, perhaps the monkeys here could defeat them.
But how could one win without fighting?
Luo Yaxuan doesn’t care about the rudeness and states the purpose for coming.
Anyway, they came for the challenge, whether against these monkeys or other demonic beasts.
If they battle demonic beasts, it’s largely just for fighting; sometimes they might choose edible demonic beasts to eat.
Seeing these monkeys now, their meat isn’t tasty at all, so they certainly won’t eat them, and they discuss with the other side to become sparring partners.
Lai Jianlin also has the same idea; recently they’ve checked out some places, and this team’s ability is indeed a bit weak. If they encounter stronger opponents, they might not win.
Rather than facing stronger opponents, it’s better to battle these monkeys now.
No need to overthink, there’s food, drink, and a place to collect herbs, and in the area owned by the monkeys, at night, they can be more at ease.
These people have noticed that at night, the monkeys activate the orchard’s formation, preventing the ghosts from entering.
Maybe because the Monkey King is here, those so-called ghosts and demons can’t fight against them, nor have the combat skills to win.
They can utilize the day to fight and be guests at the orchard at night, eliminating worries and danger.
They are here for divine tribulation, not to risk their lives, obtaining many things is pointless without life.
Though they say their divine tribulation has protection, who knows if it’s really protected?
If someone isn’t careful and gets hurt or dies, it would be a significant loss.
The people they bring in are very dear, being their teammates or relatives and friends, with deep emotional bonds.
How could they ignore their own safety?
Luo Yaxuan also considered his junior sister’s weak abilities, needing to protect her while also minding the team. As the head of a family, he needs to consider all aspects.
Lai Jianlin constantly persuades, using the best rhetoric he’s never had, speaking gently to a demonic beast like conversing with a friend.
"You want to spar with my subordinates, stay at my place at night, that’s not impossible, but you should prepare us a feast and leave good wine, perhaps then we will agree."
The Monkey Kings chattered for a moment, thinking protecting these humans isn’t impossible; their monkeys indeed need practice, they can’t always be protected by the few of them.
Besides, they too want good food and wine; the wine brewed by the monkeys isn’t delicious, and sometimes on missions they seek rewards from their master just for food and drink.
