Chapter 520 – Collision! (1/2)

Their group flashed swiftly up Mount Heavenshaker, and the corpses of treants could be seen everywhere.

Suddenly, Yang Ye stopped moving, and then he glanced at the aged trees in the surroundings.

“What’s wrong?” asked Yin Xuan’er.

Yang Ye said, “Something’s not right. It has been too quiet. It’s very unusual.”

“You’re just being too suspicious!” Po Xing frowned. He didn’t like this human at all, and he would have taught Yang Ye a lesson if it weren’t for Yin Xuan’er.

“You can stay behind if you’re afraid. We’ll be understanding of it. After all, you’re only at the Spirit Realm,” said Po Kong.

Yin Xuan’er glanced at Po Xing and Po Kong as she said, “The two of you better remember your status!”

Their expressions turned unsightly from being berated by Yin Xuan’er in public. However, they didn’t dare talk back to her and just glared fiercely at Yang Ye.

Yang Ye paid no attention to the two of them. He just walked over to a tree, gazed at it for 2 breaths of time, and then suddenly smashed his fist forward against the tree.

Bang!

The entire tree exploded into pieces, causing bits of it to spray towards the surroundings.

Yang Ye frowned as he gazed at the pile of wood pieces all over the ground. Was I wrong?

“Haha….” Po Xing chuckled lightly while his eyes were filled with ridicule.

“You suspect that they are aware of our whereabouts?” asked Yin Xuan’er.

Yang Ye nodded and said, “We encountered some treants right after we entered this forest, but we haven’t encountered a single one after arriving halfway up the mountain. Do you think that’s normal? I think that they are aware of our whereabouts, and they know that we have 4 Exalt Realm experts on our side. That’s why they haven’t sent ordinary treants to deal with us.”

“You’re saying that they are prepared to annihilate us in one go?” asked Yin Xuan’er.

“It’s possible!” said Yang Ye.

“Princess, Po Kong, Jin Sha, and I will definitely be able to keep you safe.” Po Kong glanced at Yang Ye before he spoke respectfully to Yin Xuan’er.

“Exactly!” Po Kong said, “It’s just the Treant Clan. With the strengths we possess, we don’t have to fear them at all. It’s fine if they are sensible, but if they’re not, then we’ll just annihilate them!”

Jin Sha glanced at the two of them and remained silent. Even though he didn’t know why Yin Xuan’er thought so highly of Yang Ye, he knew that this human was very strong. Not to mention anything else, just that flame he’s revealed just now was sufficient to prove all of that. After all, it was a Natural Treasure of legend!

Could someone who possessed a Natural Treasure be a weakling?

Yin Xuan’er’s beautiful brows had knit together slightly. How could she not be aware why her subordinates were so against Yang Ye? She knew that it was mainly because of her att.i.tude towards Yang Ye. Or to be more precise, they felt that Yang Ye wasn’t worthy of her. In the end, they were thinking on her behalf. Even though she didn’t like it, she couldn’t scold them too much about it or it would disappoint them.

In the end, it’s all because of Yang Ye. When she thought up to this point, Yin Xuan’er couldn’t help but glare at Yang Ye.

Yang Ye was stunned when he noticed her gaze. When did I offend her? Yang Ye shook his head and said to both Po Xing and Po Kong, “Both of you possess extraordinary strengths and are so confident, so why don’t the two of you take the lead and scout ahead? With the strengths both of you possess, you’ll definitely be able to deal with any danger you encounter. In that way, it wouldn’t just save us a lot of time, your princess wouldn’t have to take any risks. It can be said to be killing two birds with one stone, right?”

Yin Xuan’er was just about to speak when Po Xing spoke before her. “Of course, we of the demon race aren’t so cowardly like humans!”

“Isn’t it easier to say that you’re afraid of death. Why beat around the bust and say all of that!?” Po Kong glanced at Yang Ye with disdain and spoke coldly.

Yang Ye didn’t mind, and he just smiled. “Since it’s like that, then please go on ahead!”

The two of them grunted coldly, and then they flashed off ahead.

Once they left, Yin Xuan’er walked over to Yang Ye and smiled spuriously as she said, “I never expected that you’ve learned to prod others into action during this time that we’ve been apart.”

“It’s clearly your own subordinates who are dumb!” Lu Jianyao grunted.

Yin Xuan’er suddenly restrained her smile and said seriously, “I know they are acting against you, but trust me, they don’t have much ill intent towards you. They are only targeting you because of me. So, give me some face and don’t make a fuss about it with them, alright?” Yin Xuan’er knew Yang Ye’s character very well. He was absolutely a demon who acted willfully. Even though he didn’t make a fuss about it right now, it would be too late once he did.
