Chapter 548 - Drums Out (2/2)

Robber four glanced at him and said, “You told them everything?”

“Yes. If I didn’t tell them that much, they wouldn’t be able to find it. The fact they got it so quickly is all my effort.” Robber Seven didn’t think there was anything wrong in telling Flaming Horn about the beast, he even thought it was a good decision. It made sense to him to let others catch a target as hard as the beast and then steal it later.

Robber Four was about to say something but then until his face immediately fell. Even the delighted Robber Seven’s face turned cold. They both rushed out of the mountains of Rock Hill city. They heard the calls from the other Robbers.

The ones that sent out the all were the two that wanted to steal the beast from Shao Xuan before this. The two went back and warned the other robbers about what happened to them. Although the Robbers usually worked alone, this was a rare occurrence where it was necessary to work together to catch the beast.

At that moment, a crowd of people gathered at the cave to look at the green-faced fanged beast. Their eyes filled with admiration but they couldn’t help but think- what do the people from Rock Hill City want this beast for?

There were some that thought of stealing the beast for themselves but after considering the fighting skills of Flaming Horn tribespeople and the forest they have to use to escape, they killed those thoughts.

It wasn’t possible that there was only one green-faced fanged beast in that large forest so some people asked Shao Xuan about his route and went off themselves to look for another one.

Of course, they would need to be extremely careful when facing the beast. Shao Xuan warned them about it, whether they chose to listen to his advice was solely up to them.

Shao Xuan knew that the people from Rock Hill City probably guessed that they caught the beast already. His plan was a temporary solution for their situation then, he knew that they wouldn’t be able to lie their way through. There should be some plan in motion on their side now.

“Would those Rock hillbillies come over and s.n.a.t.c.h the beast? I’ll go add a few more traps in the mountains,” said Mai.

However, out of everyone’s expectations, the people from Rock Hill City didn’t head to the Flaming Horn tribe, they headed to the area where Shao Xuan caught the beast.

They did soon find another beast lurking in the area but it was too fast. When it ran into a cave, s.h.i.+ s.h.i.+ sent people in to look for it. Not long after they went in, horrifying screams were heard, some blood came gus.h.i.+ng out too. Then, it was complete silence.

s.h.i.+ s.h.i.+ decided to throw in some burning gra.s.s that produced a pungent smell to force the beast out but it had no response. Maybe there was another hole on the other side.

With no other choice, s.h.i.+ s.h.i.+ and his men went around this hill and the other hills to set traps.

Shao Xuan went over to check up what they were doing and it seemed that they planned to catch every beast there. That was the reason why they weren’t going after the one in the Flaming Horn tribe.

Thump! Thump! Thump!

The sounds echoed throughout the mountain. s.h.i.+ s.h.i.+ planned to use the sound to force about all the green-faced fanged beasts in the mountain.

s.h.i.+ s.h.i.+ was cornered into this, he had no other solution. The ancestral notes stated that the beast was hard to catch but not hard to find. That was the reason why he set up camp in the mountains, he wanted to catch more. However, it was hard to even spot one. At this rate, when would he be able to go home?

It has been nearly two hundred years since the last green-faced fang beast was caught. By this logic, there should be more of them. Why wasn’t there one to be seen anywhere?
