Chapter 971: Martial Mountain Ancient Cave
“Agggghhh~!”
“Puff~!”
The guard fell into a hole, and sprays of blood squirted out all over. He no longer made any sound after that.
How can a trap used against a Spotted Giant Tiger be simple?
It was a dead end if a Spotted Giant Tiger fell in, let alone a regular martial artist.
The scene had suddenly changed.
Ouyang Ye was briefly stunned before cautiously stepping forward. When he saw how miserable his subordinate had died in the hole, a sheen of sweat appeared on his back. If he had made a move personally, then he would be the one dead inside there.
Rage instantly surged out from Ouyang Ye.
“Kid, you are courting death!”
Luo Tian sneered with confidence, “I am precisely courting death! Come at me if you have the guts! Come, quickly come! Motherf.u.c.ker! You’re the d.a.m.n dog thing! Come at me right now if you have the guts! If you don’t dare to, then scram away for this daddy!”
It was a round of cursing and scolding.
Luo Tian had no intention of giving Ouyang Ye any face.
Ouyang Ye’s face was turning green as anger rushed all the way up to his head. He wanted to tear Luo Tian into shreds right this moment, but he didn’t dare to take a step forward. He was worried that there would be another trap in front of him somewhere. Upon seeing Luo Tian’s fearless expression, he let out a cold sneer and said, ”Are you trying to provoke me so that I will fall into your trap? Humph~! Do you think I am an idiot that will fall for that?”
The surrounding area looked like it was filled with traps.
There were thick piles of dead leaves and overgrown weeds all over. Traps could definitely be laid out at every turn in this environment.
Luo Tian smiled, “d.a.m.n it, why are you so smart? How did you become so smart? Does your mom know you’re this smart?”
Luo Tian couldn’t help sneering when he saw how cautious Ouyang Ye looked.
The Spotted Giant Tiger had already run away, and there was no way it would leave its territory now. The only way to get past its territory is to kill it. It was going to be a tough battle as there was no other solution now.
Luo Tian glanced over at Bai Lingling before looking back at Ouyang Ye. He then said with disdain, “Weren’t you going to kill me? Come, come, come! Come at me if you have the guts!”
“Quit dreaming!”
“This daddy ain’t going to fall for it!” Ouyang Ye said in contempt.
Luo Tian harrumphed, “You’re not going to come attack me?”
Ouyang Ye replied, “Not going!”
“If you’re not coming, then I’m going to leave. You gutless garbage, the thing between your legs is probably pitifully tiny. You don’t even have any guts, yet you want to put on a good performance in front of a pretty girl. It’s a complete joke that you fantasize about a hero saving a beauty all the time.” Luo Tian said with disdain.
“I’m leaving if you aren’t coming at me.”
Luo Tian turned around to leave. He was too lazy to waste his time with these people.
He had to think of another way to kill the Spotted Giant Tiger, pa.s.s its territory, and then go deeper to find the Lunar Crescent Valley.
But the moment Luo Tian turned around, Bai Lingling shouted, “Hero, please wait!”
Luo Tian turned back to look at Bai Lingling. He didn’t have any positive feelings toward this girl. If it wasn’t for her back then at the entrance, he wouldn’t have provoked any trouble. Even though he had already killed that disciple guarding the entrance, he still felt some anger whenever he thought back how he was bullied there.
Of course, Bai Lingling didn’t recognize it was him.
Bai Lingling politely smiled and said, “You killed someone of ours.”
Luo Tian replied, “What about it? Come at me if you have the guts, or else stop spouting nonsense to me. This daddy doesn’t have time to waste on you guys.”
He wasn’t giving her any face, either.
So what if you looked pretty?
Do you really think everyone was obsessed with good looking girls?
Are you treating me, Luo Tian, as a person who has never seen a pretty girl in his life?
Bai Lingling tried to explain, “You have misunderstood me. I have no intention of asking you for an explanation for killing someone of ours. My only intention is that our team is missing a person for what we need to do, so I was hoping you would join us.”
“Please be rest a.s.sured that as long as you can help us get the item we need, the compensation will be very good.”
“Even if we don’t succeed in the end, I will still give you adequate remuneration.”
Bai Lingling looked at the rotting meat on the side before saying, “It’s very dangerous to kill a rank 4 demonic beast, and your success rate isn’t high. But if you join my team and do things according to my instructions, I guarantee the profit you would make will be much higher.”
From the current scene, Bai Lingling determined that Luo Tian wasn’t a bounty hunter and was a martial artist who hunted demonic beasts as a way of survival.
In short, it was all for money!
Otherwise, who would make a trap and hide here for so long?
Bai Lingling thought that she had seen through Luo Tian completely. What she didn’t expect was that Luo Tian didn’t even think about it and said, “Not interested.”
Luo Tian turned to leave after saying that.
Bai Lingling frowned, “It doesn’t matter if we succeed or fail; I will give you 100 xuan coins!”
One hundred xuan coins wasn’t a small amount.
This was a number that even a bounty hunter wouldn’t be able to refuse.
But Luo Tian was too lazy to even snort at it, as 100 xuan coins were too little for him. And the issue wasn’t even related to money. Luo Tian didn’t want to follow around some young master and rich missy doing some childish task.
He had absolutely no interest in accompanying them.
Bai Lingling’s eyes narrowed, “Five hundred xuan coins!”
Luo Tian kept walking away.
Ouyang Ye was quite annoyed at the side and said, “Little Sister Ling, a piece of trash like him only knows how to make some traps. Even if we buy his life, it wouldn’t be worth 500 xuan coins. Aren’t we just missing a person? I will go out and summon all the elite disciples of my Ouyang family. I’m going to flatten this Martial Mountain Ancient Cave!”
“Shut your mouth!”
Bai Lingling glared at him and denounced, “If it weren’t for you being a busybody, he wouldn’t be treating us like that, and our team wouldn’t be missing a person. Now that we are short one person, our combat system will not work. How are we supposed to kill so many zombies in the ancient cave now?”
“Go back to your Ouyang family?”
“Ouyang Ye, we ran out here on our own. If we cannot find that item, do you think we will have the face to go back? Think about those people! They are waiting to watch our failure and then ridicule us in front of everyone!”
Bai Lingling was on a rampage.
She directly scolded Ouyang Ye and didn’t give him any face.
She had been suppressing the rage inside her for a while now.
Originally, she was already annoyed after being chased by bloodthirsty zombies inside the ancient cave. It wasn’t easy for them to escape out of the ancient cave. They were about to find a place to recuperate and then go back in to try once more. Now that they have lost a person, their special combat formation will not be able to display its strength to the utmost anymore. Wanting to enter the depths of the ancient cave was no longer possible!
Bai Xiong, who was off to the side, added, ”We are short one person… Even though his position isn’t that important, we are still one person less for our combat formation. Sigh~ it looks like we can only go home in failure now.”
When Luo Tian heard their conversation, he suddenly turned around and walked back with a smile. “I want a thousand xuan coins! If you agree to that, I will stay. If you don’t agree to it, I will immediately leave!”
