Chapter 815: You Scolded Me?

The cry was extremely loud. While it spread towards the surroundings, the bird flew up and flapped its wings. It acted like it got shocked into flying. After quickly leaving the tree, it also made the other birds within the forest get shocked one after another, and many flew away.
“D*mn it!” The expression on the burly man’s face changed. His eyes opened wide as he suddenly raised his head and stared at the bird that w.a.n.g Baole had turned into. While killing intent spread in his eyes, he also moaned in his heart. Obviously, there were limitations to his hiding techniques, and he couldn’t use them continuously. At that moment, he unleashed his maximum speed and went far away with a flick of his body.
But he was still too late… The moment the loud cry of the bird version of w.a.n.g Baole spread out, it was immediately heard by the Never-Ending Clan members in the distance. Instantly, those Never-Ending Clan members unleashed their speed and charged there.
Not long after, the bull-masked burly man was caught up to by the Never-Ending Clan, and fighting instantly ensued as rumbles echoed around continuously. This bull-masked burly man could be so arrogant previously because he was indeed quite capable. Under the combined attacks of three Soul Conduits, he only unleashed perfected stage Soul Conduit disturbances, but his combat strength wasn’t weak. He was just slightly disadvantaged. Despite that, he managed to kill four to five Never-Ending Clan members.
He had numerous methods and could often barely survive just by taking out some seemingly ordinary small items. In the end, after taking out a statue and having it self-destruct, he actually broke through the deadlock and escaped in an instant. If w.a.n.g Baole wasn’t there, with the tricks of the burly man, it wouldn’t have been impossible for him to escape. However, he was unlucky…
So… as the burly man put some distance between him and his pursuers and concealed himself again, a snake hissed at his hiding spot as though someone had disturbed its sleep.
And the result of the snake hissing was… that the Never-Ending Clan noticed again and charged over instantly.
The burly man was about to go crazy. He felt that it was all way too weird. His luck had met with a never-before-seen catastrophe, as though the entire planet hated him, and everything was ostracising him.
That’s absurd! The burly man growled in his heart, having no choice but to grit his teeth and fight. In the end, after killing a few Never-Ending Clan members again, there were only those three Soul Conduits left. He fought through his heavy injuries and spat blood, even activating the curse in his mask and reducing the cultivation of that perfected stage Soul Conduit, heavily injuring him. Afterwards, he threw out a pile of white bones. As the white bones were unleashed and formed a seal, the burly man finally pulled away again and escaped.
When he left the area, the burly man prepared to teleport away, but the land had been sealed by the Never-Ending Clan previously. Unable to teleport, he found a marsh with no trees and took out a cape there. After covering himself with it, one could see with their naked eyes how he camouflaged into the surroundings.
This guy had so many items? Standing on a tree in the distance, w.a.n.g Baole saw all of that. His eyes turned brighter as he flew there.
Meanwhile, the seal formed by the bull-masked burly man’s white bones was finally blasted open by the three Never-Ending Clan Soul Conduit cultivators. As their killing intent spread, the three Never-Ending Clan Soul Conduits, who had realized the bull-masked burly man was hard to handle, had extremely ugly expressions as they all charged out and started searching again. Judging by their vicious gazes, they wouldn’t let the matter rest.
And under the thorough searching of the three Never-Ending Clan members, the caped burly man held his breath and carefully s.h.i.+fted his body. He planned to use his current state to pull away once more, enabling himself to teleport.
He moved forward carefully to avoid a late-stage Soul Conduit Never-Ending Clan member who flew past him. It was then that, suddenly, he raised his leg and paused… Under his foot, a black frog crawled out from the marsh. The frog was wide-eyed as it stared blankly at the burly man.
The burly man’s heart jolted, and he wanted to crush the frog with his foot to kill it. But he didn’t dare to do so. That was because the three Never-Ending Clan members were still searching in the surroundings. In fact, the perfected stage Soul Conduit he injured was less than a hundred feet away from him. Once he stepped, he would definitely be noticed.
Also, he had suffered heavy injuries and couldn’t handle more fights. Once he was noticed, it was extremely likely that he would die.
But if he didn’t step on it… The bull-masked burly man’s heart jolted again. Truly… he saw in the frog’s eyes that it was a mutant and that it seemed to notice him.
So the burly man cried as he put his hands together and begged the frog not to croak. Meanwhile, he slowly s.h.i.+fted his foot to land it on another position.
The moment his foot landed, the frog suddenly opened its mouth and let out a loud croak. The croak immediately spread towards the surroundings. After attracting many gazes, the burly man’s concealment was rendered ineffective due to an unknown reason…
Hence, another round of fighting began.
“AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!” The burly man let out a growl towards the sky. He was indignant and furious in his heart, and that sense of weirdness made him feel suspicious while going crazy. Truly… he wasn’t the only one who found it suspicious, the surrounding three Never-Ending Clan members felt the same way. Although they didn’t know the details of what happened to the bull-masked man, they knew that he would be noticed by some beast every time he tried to hide. One only needed to think deeply to notice that something was amiss.
So… they looked like they were fighting, but in reality, the three Never-Ending Clan members were already cautious towards their surroundings. In fact, that perfected stage Soul Conduit had already opened his voice transmission ring and was about to tell the Spirit Immortal about the weird happenings.
w.a.n.g Baole saw all of this and couldn’t help but sigh.
This isn’t fun anymore. While muttering in his heart, w.a.n.g Baole flicked his body and turned into mist with a “poof”. Instantly, he spread and swept through the surroundings, engulfing two Never-Ending Clan members, whose expressions changed completely and who were preparing to retreat. And although the cursed perfected stage Soul Conduit was prepared and escaped the boundaries of the mist, a black eye suddenly manifested within the mist that w.a.n.g Baole had turned into. He didn’t even have time to send a voice transmission or continue escaping.
That eye was the demonic eye!
Once the demonic eye appeared, the body of the perfected stage Soul Conduit Never-Ending Clan member trembled violently, and his thoughts seemed to be frozen. If he hadn’t been injured previously, he could have barely resisted it and completed his voice transmission or teleport away. But after being cursed and heavily injured, he had no way to retaliate under the demonic eye. As his vision blurred and the sense of danger in his heart exploded forth, his body was absorbed by the mist that w.a.n.g Baole had turned into. His entire world turned black, and he never awakened again.
After killing the three Never-Ending Clan members, the mist shrunk, and w.a.n.g Baole turned into a black bird again, landing on the head of the trembling bull-masked burly man. He lightly pecked the burly man’s skull and coughed.
“Little cow, did you scold me just now?”
The burly man’s body jolted as he finally understood everything. After hearing the voice of the bird on his head, he already completely understood the reason and knew the bird’s ident.i.ty.
Although he didn’t know why w.a.n.g Baole could transform into various appearances, the scene of him turning into mist and killing the three Soul Conduits just now had completely awed the burly man. Moreover, his injuries were heavy, and he could no longer fight. His life or death could be said to have been in w.a.n.g Baole’s control.
And the stinging pain coming from his skull made the bull-masked man beg for mercy while s.h.i.+vering.
“Senior, I was wrong. So long as you let me live, you can make me do anything. I’m willing to use all of my possessions to exchange for your mercy!” The burly man was a decisive man too. Although he was trembling and shocked, he threw his storage bag to one side without hesitation. He then threw out a storage bracelet, even flipping his s.h.i.+rt to show that he didn’t hide anything.
Such straightforward behavior made w.a.n.g Baole quite happy, so he checked the storage bag and storage bracelet in front of the bull-masked man. After seeing the large amount of materials and small trinkets stored within it, he inquired thoroughly.
For example, the leaf could truly make someone’s aura completely disappear. But it could only be used once a day. He also asked about the cape and other items. In the end, w.a.n.g Baole also saw a jade box in the storage bracelet.
The jade box was sealed and couldn’t be activated. Faced with w.a.n.g Baole’s inquiries, the burly man dared not hide anything from him and told w.a.n.g Baole everything truthfully. He obtained the item previously by chance but couldn’t open it. He judged that only the power of a Spirit Immortal could open it.
Seeing how cooperative the bull-masked burly man was, w.a.n.g Baole kept all of the items while feeling very satisfied. Thinking, he didn’t make life difficult for the bull-masked burly man. He only pecked his head and left a mark before flying away with a flick of his body.
