Chapter 130: Ambush, Questioning

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Zhou Chen did not rashly approach the back of the mountain rear to face the targets. Instead, he hid in the distance and kept ordering some wild beasts to gather information for him.

He was waiting for the targets to separate before he found an opportunity to destroy them.

Hard work paid off. After a while, Zhou Chen learned from a little bird that the two people, the tall muscular man and the fat youth, had walked out of the forest and were moving in the direction of Phoenix Ridge City.

“Hehe, they still have the nerves to return.”

After hearing this news, Zhou Chen waited for a while before heading to the back of the mountain to eliminate the monkey demons in the forest.

If those two were still in the forest, the risk would have been greater to fight all of them. But now, the two main combatants were missing, making it much easier to clear them.

It did not take long for Zhou Chen to quietly cross the mountain and enter the forest.

Then, he sensed twenty humanoid creatures in the forest with the Bloodthirst passive skill.

“The blood flow of the monkey demons is too similar to a human’s. I can’t differentiate them.”

Zhou Chen moved closer. Then, he finally saw the situation from behind a tree.

In a certain area deep in the forest, more than twenty ‘humans’ with yellow hair were going about their day happily.

Some of them were chewing on unknown fruits, some were chewing on meat, some were practicing archery, and some were sitting cross-legged on the ground as if they were cultivating.

“Other than having too much hair, these monkey demons are basically no different from humans.”

After observing for a while, Zhou Chen determined that these were indeed monkey demons; moreover, they had a certain level of civilization.

“Unfortunately, you still can’t change the habit of killing and eating people.”

The seemingly ordinary scene revealed cruelty. Zhou Chen could clearly tell that the meat the monkey demons were eating were the arms and legs of humans!

Without much hesitation, Zhou Chen stepped out and shot at the group of monkey demons like lightning. He first punched a meat-eating monkey demon in the chest, and then kicked a monkey demon who was practicing archery beside it, splitting it into two.

Zhou Chen’s attack was extremely ferocious. These monkey demons that did not look to have outstanding physiques quickly suffered heavy casualties under his surprise attack. They did not even manage to see his appearance before more than a third of them died.

[You have killed a monkey demon. Reward: Low-grade Inspiration Pill.]

In this massacre, Zhou Chen obtained an Inspiration Pill when he killed a monkey demon that seemed to be cultivating. This immediately filled him with motivation.

“I thought these guys would not drop it, but I didn’t expect one to drop after killing a small portion.”

Seeing that there was hope of obtaining more rewards, Zhou Chen directly activated his Windrun skill and chased after these monkey demons that had already begun to flee in all directions.

Speaking of which, these monkey demons were actually quite ferocious. When Zhou Chen killed the first few, the surrounding monkey demons charged at him without fear of death and counterattacked. However, when they realized that they could not hit Zhou Chen at all and would instead be instantly killed by him, they quickly lost their fighting spirit and fled in all directions.

However, they could not escape because Zhou Chen, who had activated the Windrun skill, was extremely fast. Not only could he run up and down trees, but he could also float above a short distance from the ground. These agile monkey demons were also suppressed by him in terms of speed, and escaping would only delay their death.

Boom!

Zhou Chen flew to the top of a tree, moving past a monkey demon that was flying across the tree trunk. Then, the monkey demon’s body was smashed into pieces, and fell to the ground.

Another loud sound was heard. Zhou Chen did a sweep kick on a monkey demon that was running for its life on the ground, sending it crashing onto a tree. Then, he kicked the monkey demon along with the tree, crushing both the tree and the monkey demon.

In just a few seconds, nearly half the monkey demons that were fleeing died. They were not far from being completely wiped out.

“Why aren’t there any more Inspiration Pills?”

Although Zhou Chen killed them, he was not very happy because he realized that there was no second Inspiration Pill after killing so many monkey demons.

Just as Zhou Chen was thinking of increasing his speed to continue killing them to see if they could drop the Inspiration Pill, he sensed two powerful lifeforms approaching through the Bloodthirst passive skill.

“Why did those two return? Shouldn’t they be quite far away…”

Zhou Chen immediately determined that it was the tall muscular man and the fat youth. He had thought that these two had already left this area, but for some reason, they had returned.

“Forget it, let’s kill these little ones first.”

Zhou Chen did not panic. He continued to chase after the fleeing monkey demons, killing one after another and quickly reducing their numbers.

Three seconds later, a towering figure blocked in front of him and punched his head.

“What’s wrong, big guy? Is killing monkey demons making you so angry?”

After Zhou Chen nimbly dodged the muscular man’s attack, he stood beside a tree and sneered at him.

However, the muscular man ignored his words and charged at him like a wild bull, looking like he would not stop until he killed him.

“I say, why are you so angry when I am just killing demons?”

Zhou Chen punched the muscular man and forced him back three steps. He also retreated half a step.

As he spoke, he sensed the traces of the fat youth around him to prevent sneak attacks.

Suddenly, an invisible wind blade with an astonishing width appeared from behind a tree. It instantly cut the tree in half and shot towards Zhou Chen’s back.

Zhou Chen immediately jumped into the air and dodged this terrifying wind blade. Then, he sensed more wind blades flying towards him from behind. At the same time, the muscular man jumped up and charged at him, wanting to block his escape route.

“Their coordination is quite good.”

Faced with this situation, Zhou Chen directly used the floating movement ability of the Windrun skill to dodge the pincer attack of the two.

“Hey, answer me. Weren’t you both very good at talking? Have you forgotten how to speak now?”

After Zhou Chen dodged their attacks, he stood in a tree and looked at them coldly.

“You are both demons, right?”
