Chapter 734 - : Stinky Duck Is Floating (2/2)

“Besides, it’s not like we’ve never met a beast demon in this endless forest. A beast demon’s aura is extremely powerful. Don’t talk about standing right in front of it. Even if we stood a few kilometers away, we can already feel its terrifying aura in the air. And that duck wasn’t emitting any aura like that. No matter how you look at it, it’s just an ordinary stinky duck,” the man said.

Eh, that’s true indeed!

The more everyone heard that, the more they started to believe him. A very powerful beast demon without a sense of threat at all… This indeed didn’t seem right. Besides, a beast demon usually hated humans a lot, and they always hid in the depths of the forest to practice. There was no way it would get so close with other humans.

“Brother Leopard, don’t tell me we’ve been fooled?” the devoted henchman spoke.

“I don’t know.”

The man shook his head. There are many things that he just didn’t seem to understand. That duck didn’t look like a beast demon no matter how you looked at it, and, the three of them, including Black Dog, most probably weren’t killed by it. But the three of them were indeed real junior martial arts spirits, so how did they die? Could it be that they were killed by the young man who was sitting at the side who didn’t utter a single word? But that young man looked like he was just at the level of a martial artist. There was no way he had the ability to kill the three of them.

If you say that he did it with the six b*stards from Ziyue Cave Heaven, then that was all the more unlikely. Among those six b*stards, the strongest one was only at the level of an intermediate great martial artist at best. The difference was too huge. It’s like an insurmountable obstacle that could not be crossed. No matter how the few of them worked together, there’s no way they could have killed the three of them.

What in the world happened then?

The more he thought about it, the weirder this entire scenario became.

“Go, report the current situation to the assistant troop leader, and see what he has to say,” the man ordered his henchman.

“Brother Leopard, then what about you guys?”

“We’ll head back and see what’s actually going on,” the man said.

Head back?

As soon as the rest heard that, the color on their faces changed. It was unclear exactly how the three of them died. There was no way they had the guts to head back.

“What are you afraid of? I swear that that stinky duck isn’t a beast demon at all,” the man ascertained. “As to why it could open its mouth and talk, I bet it must have eaten some elixir or some kind of natural herbs or ores, and accidentally gained that ability.” He continued confidently, “Black Dog and the rest might have lost their lives, but I’m sure they must have underestimated their opponent and fell into their enemies’ trap. Otherwise, there’s no way a few martial artists can do anything to them.”

He was doing this to comfort his subordinates and himself, trying to convince himself that his speculation was correct.

Indeed, after his statement, the expression of the Black Blood Mercenary Corps members turned serious. Perhaps they really trusted him and believed that things really happened as he mentioned.

“Come, let’s head back!” the man shouted, taking the lead as they went back where Xiao Luo and the others were.

…

“Let me tell you people this, this duck here was in command of the world back in the days. I could produce clouds with one hand, and rain using the other, and could even pierce a hole through the sky. Right. Have you people heard of the story ‘Nüwa Mends the Heaven’?” Duck Emperor was currently bragging to the six Ziyue Cave Heaven disciples.

The six of them shook their heads and looked at Duck Emperor with eyes filled with admiration. The phrase ‘mend the heaven’ sounded extremely powerful even just listening to it.

“This duck here knows that you people have never heard of it. This just goes to show that you people are just way too young and living in an era that’s so far away from that period I’ve lived in. Since you people don’t know, then this duck here shall enlighten you guys. This duck here enjoys sharing stories.” Duck Emperor enjoyed the feeling of being worshipped. If it wasn’t because of Arcana Land, it would have lived its past 500 years for nothing. Now that it was floating all the way up into the clouds, it had thrown Xiao Luo to the back of its head. It was really treating itself like it was a real Beast Demon Lord.

This stinky duck was floating!

Xiao Luo sneered. He really wanted to walk straight up and kick this stinky duck in its butt.
