Chapter 289 - Such a Poetic Name... (1/2)

What the hell, where did that black tornado come from? Zhang Che hadn’t sensed a thing!

Indeed, there wasn’t anywhere absolutely safe in the secret plane!

-If it wasn’t for the fact that I had enough food with me from the start and didn’t kill those wild animals the moment I saw them, wouldn’t I be left without a corpse right now?- Thinking of that, cold sweat poured down from Zhang Che’s forehead.

How could anyone avoid such unthinkable danger the first time they came across such a situation?

Zhang Che almost wanted to turn around and leave immediately, returning to the pale grey area where all kinds of powerful strange creatures might be hiding everywhere.

At the very least, he only had to be more careful and not get discovered by those creatures that were way too powerful for him. That way, there wouldn’t be much danger to him.

In this cursed place, however, you might lose your life if you were ever so slightly careless!

Zhang Che looked at the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon at the side. Four pitiful beasts were still hanging from that fellow’s claws.

-I’d better release them quickly. What if he makes them bleed by accident?-

As if sensing Zhang Che’s worries, the muscular man immediately said out loud, “Don’t worry, brother. That subdued beast of yours is cold-attributed, right? You can have it directly freeze them to death and it’ll be fine.”

Zhang Che was slightly taken aback, “Freeze them to death and it’d be alright?”

The man nodded, “Right, nothing will happen at all as long as they’re dead before bleeding.”

-What a strange rule!- Zhang Che realized that there really were all sorts of strange things in this part of the secret plane.

After thinking for a while, he asked, “Then, what if a beastmaster or subdued beast bleeds? Will that strange black wind appear too?”

The man nodded, then shook his head, saying, “Beastmasters bleeding will attract the black wind to blow their way. If it was a subdued beast, however, due to the uniqueness of their state of living, nothing will happen no matter how much blood they lose.”

-Is that so…- Zhang Che nodded, pretty much understanding the situation.

In other words, in this “green land”, only real living creatures bleeding would cause that strange black gale to blow their way, while creatures like subdued beasts who didn’t have a soul of their own wouldn’t.

-Hmm, in conclusion, it means that the strong wind will blow if creatures with their own souls bleed!- Done thinking, Zhang Che immediately gave an order to the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon. A faint mass of blue darkfiend aura suddenly gushed out from the latter’s claws, freezing the four wild beasts in an instant, their souls dissipating.

As he’d been told, no strange signs appeared in the air.

Zhang Che let out a long sigh of relief. The four wild beasts held in the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragons weren’t wild beasts at all; they were like four nuclear shells filled with destruction!

Now that the four nuclear shells were successfully destroyed, there wouldn’t be any further threats to his safety.

Zhang Che recalled Hanxue back into his spiritual sea, then walked towards the group of three men along with the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon, still holding the four frozen wild beasts in his claws. He thanked from the bottom of his heart, “Thank you so much for big brother’s reminder, or I might have already lost my life here. In the beginning I was still thinking you wanted to snatch those wild beasts from me, judging a gentleman like you as a vile character!”

That man waved his hand, not minding at all, “Eyy, that’s nothing. Anyone in your position would think we were trying to snatch food from you! There’s really not much food to be found in this damn secret plane. People might die at any time outside of the green lands while fighting for food; it’s as normal as can be!”

“No, I still have to thank you, big brother!” Zhang Che said seriously, “My name is Zhang Che. If there’s anything you need my help with after we’re out of the secret plane, just say the word. This brother will definitely not say no if I can help!”
