Chapter 677 - The Herb Thief (2/2)

“Thief! Capture it!”

“I’m Little Green. How dare you steal stuff from my place. What big balls you have!”

“Brothers, catch it alive!”

Their howls were turned to words in Ye Lingchen’s ears, prompting him to raise his brows.

The voice came from the herb farm. Did someone steal his herbs?

His body rose sharply into the air and he rushed toward the herb farm at lightning speed.

His speed stunned Wu Yue, who was just about to catch up when Ye Lingchen had already disappeared. There were absolutely no words to describe how fast it was, and the other warriors had the same feeling. They were so shocked that their eyes nearly popped out. “F*ck me, Chief Ye is much more powerful that we imagined.”

Li Jing and Ali’s speed were almost on par too. They had ample explosive strength as they dashed over as well.

Ye Lingchen had already arrived at the herb farm. He looked up and saw a white figure scurrying among the plants, squeaking in panic.

A white fox?

Ye Lingchen’s excellent auditory and visual senses gave him a clear view of where the squeak came from.

Covered in snow-white fur, its eyes were big and its pupils had an anthropomorphic look of helplessness. Both its ears were perked high and it looked very vigilant, while its fluffy tail swayed from side to side as it ran.

‘Adorable! Beautiful fur too. Looks really smooth. It must be very valuable.’

That was Ye Lingchen’s first thought.

A piece of ginseng about half the size of its body was held in its front paws.

Such a big appetite for a little guy.

Ginseng was one of the most valuable medicinal materials in the herb farm as it formed the principal subject of care by his Wood Spirit Constitution. If its age was calculated, it would definitely be more than a hundred years old. It was a century-old ginseng that was hardly ever seen in the outside world and had a prohibitively high price.

“Get it!”

“I dare you to stay right there!”

Little Green and Little Gray continued to howl, and more than a dozen wolves in the pack surrounded the white fox. To Ye Lingchen’s astonishment, the white fox was extremely agile with a speed not inferior to that of Little Green and Little Gray, and surprisingly quick-witted too.

It seemed to be aware of Little Green and Little Gray’s strength and made a conscious decision to avoid the two canines. Meanwhile, the other wolves could not keep up with its agility, which therefore allowed it to scurry around and deal with the pack easily.

“Squeak!”

The white fox’s voice was extremely urgent. It had clearly chosen the right time, coming to steal only when no one was around. In fact, it had been eyeing the place for a long time, but was scared witless after all those wolves showed up so unexpectedly.

When a wolf jumped over to bite it, its small body leapt nimbly and stepped on the wolf’s head. With a flick of its tail, it quickly made its way back into the forest.

Then, a snow-white tiger appeared in front of the white fox and blocked it. The tiger tried its best to look fierce and howled at the white fox…
