If Ye Xiwen did not give mercy, He Yulong was already killed on the spot. Although He Yulong had already entered the Transcendent Realm Sixth Level, he was outmatched by E Hong. He even had a significant gap with Chai Jianben. After two consecutive battles, Ye Xiwen’s strength had greatly improved. He had undergone growth, seemingly invincible at the Transcendent Realm Sixth Level.
Ye Xiwen’s question made Yu Sisi flushed. She could not retort at all. At the spur of the moment, she went to Ye Xiwen’s question just now. After gaining back her rationality, she knew He Yulong was at fault in this situation, no matter what. It couldn’t be helped.
If He Yulong won just now, she could raise the narration that He Yulong had keen eyes in realizing that Ye Xiwen was a burden.
The reality happened otherwise. He suffered a fatal injury in Ye Xiwen’s hands. In the end, it was him inflicting shame on himself.
“Impossible!” Blood dripped at the corner of He Yulong’s mouth. His eyes were filled with disbelief and shock. As a Transcendent Realm Sixth Level, he couldn’t imagine that he would lose to a Transcendent Realm Third Level warrior. It was simply impossible in his worldview.
In his perception, Transcendent Realm Sixth Level was distinctive to Transcendent Realm Third Level. There was a significant gap between both sides. One was Transcendent Realm Initial, and the other was Transcendent Realm Intermediate. The difference was like heaven and earth. However, he was unmatched to Ye Xiwen.
Worse still, there was no intense battle. Ye Xiween defeated him utterly. He had no excuses for his defeat. It was what it was. His ambush on Ye Xiwen’s back did not change anything. The defeat was evident as it was.
This tilted his inherent outlook on life. He had not suffered much damage due to Ye Xiwen’s mercy. What he found unacceptable was having nothing to fight back.
On the other side, Xiong Zhicheng’s face was also ugly at this time. In any case, He Yulong was a member of his Bear Team, after all. He was beaten by outsiders and could not fight back. It brought shame to him.
“Captain Xiong, what is going on?” Yao Qian stepped forward, staring at Xiong Zhicheng, and said. Although she had a pleasant cooperation with the Bear Team before, what happened made her furious.
He Yulong attacked from behind. It was despicable! Worse still, he was not attacking an enemy but a possible collaborator in the future.
“Excuse me, Yulong is just assessing this little brother’s strength. After all, it is dangerous to enter the Chaos Demon Sea. If he is weak, he will only drag the whole team down. You have also entered once. So, I think you should be able to understand our caution!” Xiong Zhicheng sighed.
He was well aware it was all because of Yao Qian. It was well-known in the Bear Team that He Yulong liked Yao Qian. Ye Xiwen, the young man who appeared next to Yao Qian, became a thorn in his eye. After all, it was because he liked Yao Qian too much.
But, Captain Xiong wouldn’t be able to say it out, so he grabbed an excuse.
Yao Qian thought for a moment. It was not the first time that she came to Chaos Demon Sea. Naturally, she knew what kind of place Chaos Demon Sea was. It was indeed a dangerous place. If one were to be lackluster, it would be digging his own grave.
Xiong Zhicheng’s words made sense, but what He Yulong did still made her furious. She could not swallow her anger. After all, she led Ye Xiwen here. If you disregard the monk, be respectful to the Buddha [1]. Ye Xiwen did not deal a heavy blow in respect of her. However, He Yulong treated Ye Xiwen harshly. It was like doubting her.
“Even so, can you sneak attack on others from behind? Not to mention that you can’t win with a sneak attack. If I were him, I would suicide!” Bai Hanmo sneered on the side, seemingly disdainful toward He Yulong’s behavior.
He Yulong, who had already suffered a defeat, puked another mouthful of blood after having heard this. He was so angry that he fainted directly.
Bai Hanmo showed scornful and disdainful expression. He seemed to be insinuating that He Yulong was useless. With simple words, He Yulong couldn’t stand it anymore.
Neither Xiong Zhicheng nor Yu Sisi had anything to say about it. After all, He Yulong’s surprise attack from behind was a fact. They couldn’t do anything about it.
At this time, they could only complain that He Yulong lost his mind and committed such a thing. Even if he liked Yao Qian, he shouldn’t do that.
“Well, let’s reduce the share we take by 10% if we enter the Chaos Demon Sea. What do you think?” Xiong Zhicheng said as he gritted his teeth.
Like the young experts who came in from outside, they liked to work with the local experts in Chaos Demon City. After all, the local experts had a lot of experience and knew a lot of hidden secrets. If they could cooperate with the local experts, their risk of dying would considerably decline.
These local experts were also willing to cooperate with these outsiders. Those who dared to enter Chaos Demon Sea must be the elite. They must be the best in the same realm and even among the peers. Coupled with the local experts’ experience and the foreigner’s strength, it would often be a fruitful adventure.
Yao Qian was undoubtedly someone they sought. Ye Xiwen just now made the best display of his strength with this punch. He was a guy who was not easy to mess with.
But it was precise because of this that the Bear Team was even more reluctant to give up.
Generally speaking, the ratio of outsiders and local experts splitting the loot was 40% and 60%, respectively. Equal share for both sides was common too. A reduction of 10% could also be regarded as Xiong Zhicheng’s compromise.
“20%. Otherwise, there is no point in discussing this matter!” Ye Xiwen said on behalf of Yao Qian at this time. He could see that Yao Qian was in a dilemma in this matter. After all, the previous cooperation between the Bear Team was pleasant. Ye Xiwen didn’t mind acting as the bad guy right now.
Yao Qian was about to speak, but she didn’t add on when Ye Xiwen said something.
“Fine, 20%!” Although it had been reduced by 20%, Xiong Zhicheng also thought it was worth it. After all, such an opportunity was relatively rare. If the Bear Team did not cooperate with the trio, many people in the city sought this cooperation.
Although the strength of the Bear Team was good, they were not the only demon hunting squad. Without them, the trio could seek cooperation from others. With their strength, they would be sought after.
This kind of cooperation between the demon hunting squad and an outsider was frequent in Chaos Demon City. The only problem was that there were no rules at all in Chaos Demon City and Chaos Demon Sea. No restrictions existed. There could be situations in which both parties face off each other. It was not easy to find a familiar and trustworthy teammate.
In this Chaos Demon Sea, some outsiders were led to remote places by those demon hunting squads. They would be wiped out. However, there were also demon hunting squads surrounded by those cunning outsiders and got wiped out. It was challenging to obtain mutual trust.
Therefore, Yao Qian was determined to meet with the Bear Team.
Captain Xiong felt guilty to Yao Qian in his heart. He didn’t expect that He Yulong would do such a thing. Hence, he agreed as compensation.
“Right, I have one last request. I don’t want this fellow to get involved. I don’t want to see him around anymore!” said Ye Xiwen, pointing to He Yulong, who had passed out in a coma on the ground.
“No problem, wouldn’t it be too few people with only the five of us!?” doubted Xiong Zhicheng. Having one person short would bring a significant impact on the overall strength of the entire team.
“It doesn’t matter. It would not affect much!” said Ye Xiwen.
Xiong Zhicheng and Yu Sisi had no way to refute. After all, He Yulong had almost no power to fight back in Ye Xiwen’s hands. It appeared that missing one did not hinder the team.
“En!” Yao Qian nodded and said, “Our top priority now is to enter the Chaos Demon Sea quickly!”
The Vanishing Shadow Poisonous Crocodile Clan experts might be here at any time. The trio didn’t have much time to delay.
“Okay, let’s set off right away!” Xiong Zhicheng said when they saw both Ye Xiwen and Yao Qian seem hurried.
He Yulong was quickly taken back by those outer members of the Bear Team, while the five of them did not stop for a moment and went directly to Chaos Demon Sea.
Half a day after the team left, the Vanishing Shadow Poisonous Crocodile Clan experts had arrived. The leader was none other than E Hong.
E Hong rushed into Chaos Demon City with a gloomy look. Chaos Demon City was not Chaos Demon Sea. The Vanishing Shadow Poisonous Crocodile Clan also has some influence at this place. E Hong’s arrival mobilized most of the clan’s forces.
Soon, E Hong knew that Ye Xiwen and others had left not long ago.
“Damn bitch!” E Hong whispered viciously. He then directly sent a transmission talisman and contacted the Crown Prince Crocodile in Chaos Demon Sea. He was determined to hunt Ye Xiwen down in Chaos Demon Sea.
