Ding!
Congratulations!
[You received a Red Envelope from Qianliyan! The G.o.d’s Eye Talisman has been stored inside your treasure chest!]
“Done!” Chen Xiaobei grinned, taking out the G.o.d’s Eye Talisman from his Infinite s.p.a.ce Ring.
“What’s done?” Bro Huo who was busy stuffing himself that he nearly jumped out his skin.
“Stop eating! Let’s go catch ourselves a deer!” Chen Xiaobei smiled, as he activated the G.o.d’s Eye Talisman.
“Go where…” Bro Huo hesitated.
Buzz…
The G.o.d’s Eye Talisman lit up and a gold eye-rune glided into the air, suspended in front of Chen Xiaobei.
“Thi… What talisman is this… I’ve never seen it before…” Bro Huo however, did not seem very surprised.
This was a high-ranking starfield after all – items like Infinite s.p.a.ce Rings and Talismans were pretty common.
Considering that, Bro Huo was naturally unimpressed and unsurprised.
Chen Xiaobei was very familiar with the G.o.d’s Eye Talisman. He was able to find the target within half a minute!
“Golden antlers, green mane, white hooves like it is stepping on clouds!” Chen Xiaobei said.
Bro Huo gasped, “Huh? Doctor! Isn’t this your first time here in Boulder planet? How is it that you know what the Cloud-stepping Golden Antlers Deer look like?”
“I’ve already found it!” Chen Xiaobei said excitedly. “Bring out the flying car. Let’s go now!”
“Is… Is that true…” Bro Huo did not really believe it but he played along and took out his flying car.
After that, the flying car sped through a few hundred kilometres.
“Alright! Here it is!” Chen Xiaobei said. “Land slowly. We don’t want to startle the stag!”
“Really?” Bro Huo still found it difficult to believe.
The flying car descended slowly until it was about two meters above the ground.
Both men alighted the car, before Bro Huo quietly stowed his car away.
They treaded lightly, making sure not to make any sudden movements.
“That stag is in the undergrowth in front. I’ll approach it while you stay here and keep watch!” Chen Xiaobei instructed.
“Let me help you!” Bro Huo sounded anxious. “The Cloud-riding Golden Antlers Deer are generally as fast as elites at the last phase of Ethereal Cultivation. The stags are as fast as the peak of Ethereal Cultivation. Only elites at G.o.d-Ascension phase can capture them!”
“Really? The stags are that fast?!” Chen Xiaobei exclaimed. “This stag looks very strong. No wonder it is the only one out of the ten that hasn’t yet been captured!”
“That is why you should let me help you! We can close on it from the front and from the back! That will give us a better chance at capturing it!”
“No need! You stay here! I can do it alone!” Chen Xiaobei had already made up his mind.
“How…?” Bro Huo stared at him in disbelief. “Not a single person out of the hundreds and thousands of elites could catch it! How is a mere doctor going to be able to do it?”
“Shh!” Chen Xiaobei placed a finger in front of his lip and then tiptoed towards the animal. “Don’t underestimate a doctor!”
Bro Huo was worried but he did not want to act impulsively so he stayed back.
Chen Xiaobei had reached the undergrowth pretty quickly. Instead of approaching the stag and risk startling it, Chen Xiaobei took out some Spiritual Medicine from his Infinite s.p.a.ce Ring, rubbed them in his hands and then channelled his Fire Attribute Ethereal Force.
Baked at a high temperature, the medicines began to emit green smoke which drifted towards the shrubbery.
Bro Huo who was watching from afar, exclaimed in a hush voice, “Wow! Doctor, you actually used this method! Too good! You are just too d.a.m.n good!”
“Success!” Chen Xiaobei was grinning from ear to ear as he sprinted towards the undergrowth!
The G.o.d’s Eye Talisman confirmed the position of the deer , and his Golden Gaze Fiery Eyes helped him look through the shrubs to keep an eye on the stag. Everything was under Chen Xiaobei’s control.
Whoos.h.!.+
Whoos.h.!.+
Working quickly, Chen Xiaobei dragged the magnificent stag out of the bushes.
The deer was unconscious. There was no way it could escape – it was completely at Chen Xiaobei’s mercy.
Bro Huo’s jaw had fallen wide open as he watched the young man bring in his catch. “Wow! Not only do you know how to cure people with medicine, you also know how to capture deer with potions! If you had come three days earlier, I’m sure that you would’ve had gotten all ten of the deer!”
“Alright! Let’s not b.u.t.ter me up!” Chen Xiaobei said. “Hurry up! Send me off to submit this! The sun is setting soon!”
“Oh, right! Yes! Submission! Get into the car!” Bro Huo retrieved his flying car.
Soon, they found themselves outside of the forest where a provisional camp had been set up. It was the location for submission.
Chen Xiaobei and Bro Huo got down the car, and carried the deer towards the tent.
“Stay where you are!”
When they were about 10 meters away from the campsite, a large group of people rushed out, seemingly out of nowhere, and goggled at the unconscious stag!
“c.r.a.p!” Bro Huo was suddenly ill with panic. “I didn’t think there would be people waiting here!”
“Hey kid, what’s your name? Hand over the stag!” The leader of the group of young men barked.
“Why should I give you my game?” Chen Xiaobei retorted.
“What the h.e.l.l! Don’t you know who I am?” The young man asked vaingloriously.
“Who are you? How is that any of my business?” Chen Xiaobei looked sideways at the young man and continued forward.
“F*ck! Are you a foreign r.e.t.a.r.d? You don’t know who I, Hong Tianmeng, am?” The young man roared.
“Hong… Hong Tianmeng…” Bro Huo almost took a step back. “The eldest son of General Hong of the third war zone, Hong Tianmeng?”
“Heh, at least one of them has eyes!” Hong Tianmeng chuckled. “Since you know who I am, put down that stag or put down your lives!”
Immediately after he said that, the group of men which Hong Tianmeng brought along with him spread out and surrounded Chen Xiaobei and Bro Huo.
“The tent is right there. Isn’t robbing someone else of their kill against the rules?” Chen Xiaobei asked.
“Rules?” Hong Tianghong smiled, “They don’t care what means or method you use! There’s no such thing as breaking rules!”
“Not even when it’s killing people?” Chen Xiaobei asked.
“Of course not!” Hong Tianmeng laughed. “We have been at war all year long! What are another few dead people?”
“So, if I don’t hand over my kill, you’ll kill me?” Chen Xiaobei asked.
“That’s right!” Hong Tianmeng signalled for his people to take out their weapons.
As that was happening, a few middle-aged men walked out of the tent, watching as they gathered at the entrance. They had no intention to stop the fight from breaking out.
It appeared that what Hong Tianmeng said was true.
“Doctor… You better hand over the stag… or the both of us will die…” Bro Huo stammered.
“Why aren’t they the ones instead, who are going to die?” Chen Xiaobei asked.
