Chapter 228 Herding
Zhou Feng hesitated for a moment before asking, “Big Yellow, is it dangerous?”
“Woof!”
A look of consideration appeared on Big Yellow’s face upon hearing his question.
Spirit beasts like the Mountain Spirit Hounds had high intelligence and could even communicate normally with humans.
Zhou Feng had also heard that after reaching the Divine Ability realm, spirit beasts could speak like humans.
!!
Therefore, Zhou Feng and Big Yellow were able to have a simple exchange.
Big Yellow nodded and shook its head.
In other words, the thing that left behind this scent was considered a little threatening. This was an a.s.sessment based on Big Yellow’s strength.
“Forget it. Let’s continue moving forward.”
Zhou Feng forcefully suppressed his curiosity.
In this situation, it was best not to be too curious.
The proverb ‘curiosity killed the cat’ was a universal truth. It was best to rein in one’s curiosity, or else, it would be easy to put oneself in danger.
Zhou Feng continued to head toward the Tri-Gu Sect’s location.
The further one was from Heavenly Star City, the more deathly silent the surroundings became. The trees around him also began to decrease, and the land gradually became barren.
This sort of thing was extremely rare to him.
This was because almost every inch of the Southern Border would be filled with tall trees.
How could the land become barren?
The crimson soil and reddish-brown rocks were all exposed.
‘So many corpses!’
At the same time, Zhou Feng noticed more and more corpses along the way. He could also see skeletons after walking for a while.
Zhou Feng did not know how long he walked, but just as he was about to reach the Tri-Gu Sect’s former base, Big Yellow barked.
‘Someone is here!
For safety reasons, Zhou Feng restrained his aura and hid at the side.
Then, he saw two black dots slowly walking over from afar.
These were two men!
However, these two men looked peculiar. Their eyes were lifeless, and their faces were full of acne.
The strangest thing was that their bellies were round. It was as if they were pregnant for ten months.
He could even see some things, the size of a fist, squirming in their round bellies. There were probably dozens of them. Every time they squirmed, the bellies’ shape would change.
Has anyone ever seen a lotus pod before? There are many densely packed holes on a big lotus pod, and the lotus seeds are situated inside the holes.
The stomachs of these two people were similar to a big lotus pod, with countless protruding lotus seeds on their stomachs.
“Eh? There’s actually a fish that slipped through the net! What a great harvest!”
Just as Zhou Feng was thinking about what had happened to these two people, a voice echoed.
He had been discovered!
Zhou Feng’s first reaction was that he had been discovered.
Then, a black shadow flew rapidly from afar.
He had clearly just seen a black dot on the horizon, but in the blink of an eye, he had arrived in front of Zhou Feng.
It was a huge fat man with a hideous face. Other than some bone ornaments on his body, he was naked.
He was more than two meters tall, and his skin was dark gray. His body seemed to be made of copper water, and his every move carried a sense of power.
What made Zhou Feng most uncomfortable was that this person’s eyes were aggressive. His eyes were fixed on him as if he was staring at food.
“You hid really well! If it wasn’t for that b*stard under your feet, I wouldn’t have been able to discover you!”
Tigri glared fiercely at Big Yellow. He was about to grin and reveal his yellow teeth.
Zhou Feng frowned because the stench on this person’s body was the stinkiest he had ever smelled.
There was also the fact that this person had almost no clothes on him. That ugly shaft was eye-piercing
‘Big Yellow exposed my tracks…’
Zhou Feng now understood that the fat man had not discovered him because he did not hide properly. Big Yellow had exposed him.
“I was still worried that I could not complete today’s herding mission! I did not expect that a lamb would come knocking on my door!”
Tigri held a large bone club and kept sizing up Zhou Feng.
From time to time, his disgusting saliva would drip onto the ground.
“Woof! Woof! Woof!”
Big Yellow immediately bared its teeth and crouched down with its front body, ready to attack.
‘Herding? Mission?’
Zhou Feng did not speak and tried his best to a.n.a.lyze the essence of the fat man’s words.
‘Herding? Could it be related to those fellows with the big bellies?
‘Having a mission means that there is a superior. Then this person must be part of a group or a sect…’
“Haha! You don’t seem to know what herding is!”
Tigri looked reckless, but he didn’t make a move. Instead, he was testing Zhou Feng because he felt a sense of danger.
From the beginning until now, there was no change in this person’s face.
This was different from the humans he had met before.
Tigri’s eyes concealed his shrewdness deep in them.
The two men with the big bellies suddenly had painful expressions on their faces.
Their stomachs suddenly expanded as if they were inflated, and densely packed bulges appeared on their stomachs.
Bam!
The stomachs of these two people exploded, and many white fat bugs jumped out of them.
These white bugs, accompanied by a rain of blood, flew directly toward Zhou Feng.
Zhou Feng instantly understood what this so-called herding meant!
‘This person uses humans to breed these bugs!’
Zhou Feng clenched his fist fiercely, and the Blood Qi in his body burned crazily.
Golden Blood Qi shone in all directions as he threw a punch!
He directly attacked without saying a word once again.
Traces of a savage aura also emerged from Tigri’s body, and his muscles burst forth with terrifying power.
The bone club in his right hand struck forward.
Kacha!
Zhou Feng’s golden fist shattered this bone club.
Although Tigri was sufficiently shrewd, his cultivation level was only at the Soul Altar realm.
Zhou Feng hadn’t attacked earlier because he wanted to find out what was going on.
Now that Tigri had made a move, Zhou Feng naturally would not hold back, instantly unleashing his full strength.
Zhou Feng’s punch sent Tigri flying.
“Demon General strength!”
When Tigri felt that suffocating aura, his face revealed an incredulous expression.
This human actually had the strength of a Demon General!
Tigri was already cautious, but he did not think he would still fall into the trap.
“Die!”
Zhou Feng punched again, sending Tigri’s head flying
The Purple Jade Bell floated above his head, suppressing everything around him.
Whether it was the flesh bugs or Tigri’s body, they were crushed into meat paste.
Big Yellow also took the opportunity to attack. It rushed out and brought Tigri’s head back in an instant.
After a short burst of power, the surroundings fell into silence once again.
‘It seems that all the humans in this area are dead…’
Zhou Feng felt that all the humans in this area were dead.
No wonder the people of Heavenly Star City didn’t want to talk about this place. Only caravans would enter this area.
It seemed that the caravans were really bold.
