Chapter 28: Unable to escape fate

Ye Xingzhou still chose to act at night.

Although he has enough life-saving magic weapons on him, he cannot take them out easily unless it is a critical moment.

He is a loser, and the fact that he has a bunch of magical weapons hidden on him is a deadly threat.

This is still in a secret place, so the wealth should not be exposed and the fewer people who know about it, the better.

What's more, those who can persist until the fourth day of the assessment are basically cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Stage.

If he fights head-on, he will only get beaten. If he chooses to fight at night, it will be easier for him to escape.

Ye Xingzhou took out a sack and took away two more beehives with skillful movements.

When bees attack, even the King of Hell has to wear a bee-proof suit.

When passing the mud pit, Ye Xingzhou paused slightly.

This spirit beast feces seems to be more intimidating to humans.

Do you really want to play with shit?

Ye Xingzhou was confused for a moment.

His morals and bottom line are at odds.

Morality tells him to stick to the bottom line of being a human being.

But coincidentally, he just has no bottom line.

So, what is the point of morality?

Ye Xingzhou eventually lost his innocence and scooped up manure.

He was carrying a bucket of manure in his hand and a sack on his shoulder, running around in the woods like a monkey.

"Thank you for your hard work over the years."

"Junior Brother Xiao, I was too aggressive earlier."

There was no tit-for-tat at all, it was all sympathy for Xiao Ping.

Elder Xuan, who was sitting closest to Xiao Ping, quietly moved his chair away.

Seeing Ye Xingzhou playing with shit, Elder Xuan automatically thought that Xiao Ping also liked to play with it.

I was afraid of getting the smell if I got too close.

Xiao Ping has a wooden face.

He actually hoped to start a quarrel now.

But the hall was filled with harmony.

He couldn't even find the words to find fault.

The exception is Zuo Chunhui.

He can still leisurely eat grapes while looking at the high-definition version of feces.

What a good appetite.

"Senior Brother Zhang Zhuo, are we really going to the water area?" Du Lang hesitated.

"Go, of course." Zhang Zhuo was very interested. "The Seven Star Grass can be exchanged for a second-grade Foundation Establishment Pill. With this Pill, you can establish your foundation."

"But I always feel that this news is mysterious. There were more than two of us who went to the water area, but no one made any noise."

Du Lang looked at the ever-changing rankings, and a frown appeared between his brows.

"The number of eliminations has been fluctuating rapidly since last night. It's more like someone is specifically waiting in ambush near the water."

"Also, we're almost at the water, but we haven't met anyone along the way."

"Oh, my good junior brother, don't overthink it. This is just an assessment. It's normal for there to be eliminations." Zhang Zhuo said as he quickened his pace. "Junior brother, hurry up, or the Seven Star Grass will be snatched away if you're late."

Zhang Zhuo is a senior brother whom Du Lang has always respected. He is usually carefree and has no ulterior motives.

Du Lang had no choice but to open his spiritual sense and carefully observe the movements around him.

Suddenly, there was a sound of swords clashing from the front.

A man covered in blood ran towards the two men, covering his injured abdomen in panic.

After running a few steps, he stumbled and fell to the ground.

Zhang Zhuo quickly helped him up, "Junior Brother Fang Rong?"

"Hurry, run... leave... me alone..."

Fang Rong was barely breathing, and Zhang Zhuo hurriedly took out the Heart Meridian Pill from his storage bag and fed it to him.

"What are you talking about? We are brothers. How can I just stand by and watch you get hurt?"

Fang Rong's mouth curled up slightly.

Another idiot who thinks he has good intentions.

The strange feeling in Du Lang's heart became stronger and stronger.

It happened to be such a coincidence.

Lenovo Fang Rong's ranking rose rapidly, and Du Lang became alert.

The senior brother is kind-hearted. He has no evidence, so if he tells his senior brother about his suspicions, he will definitely not believe him.

Du Lang could only distance the two of them and look at Fang Rong with a scrutinizing gaze.

"Junior Brother Fang, what just happened?"

Fang Rong smiled bitterly, "I guess you've all heard the news about the Seven Star Grass appearing. I was lucky enough to find it."

"On the way, I met three monks. They wanted to kill me and steal the Seven Star Grass. I used up all my spiritual power to barely escape. Fortunately, I met you."

As he spoke, Fang Rong took out a purple-gold spiritual herb from his storage bag.

"Thank you very much for saving my life, Senior Brother. I will give you this Seven Star Grass as a thank you gift."

Zhang Zhuo was slightly disappointed when he heard that the Seven-Star Grass had been picked.

However, when Fang Rong wanted to give him the Seven Star Grass, Zhang Zhuo still refused.

"Junior brother, you risked your life to get this. I can't take it. Saving you is just a convenience."

As Zhang Zhuo was speaking, he suddenly felt weak and sleepy.

Du Lang sensed something was wrong and held his sword against Fang Rong's neck.

But when he wanted to drop the sword, his body could not move at all, and the spiritual energy in his body stagnated instantly.

"Did you take the bone tendon powder?"

"Du Lang, compared to your senior brother, you are smarter."

Fang Rong pushed the sword away and stood up. "From the moment you came into contact with me, you have already inhaled the bone tendon powder."

Bone and tendon powder is colorless and odorless, and has powerful medicinal properties. If you get it on someone, your spiritual energy will be restricted for half an incense stick.

"Fang Rong, how can you repay kindness with evil!" Zhang Zhuo said angrily.

"Repaying kindness with enmity?"

Fang Rong acted as if he had heard something funny. "This is an assessment. I used some tricks and you fell for it. You're just stupid. You even implicated your teammates."

"So, you eliminated those people in front of you in this way." Although Du Lang asked, his tone was affirmative.

"How can I win the test without some tricks?" Fang Rong curled his lips and put the Seven Star Grass into the storage bag.

"You are so despicable and shameless, using kindness to scheme against me. Aren't you afraid that I will report you to the elders?"

"Go ahead and curse me, you're going to be eliminated anyway." Shuiyuejing wasn't someone everyone cared about. He'd taken advantage of a trick to snatch the token. It was a bit dirty, but it was quick. "When you report this to the elders, just say you were foolish and fell for my trick. I need to be retested."

After Fang Rong finished speaking, he snatched Zhang Zhuo's storage bag and forcibly opened the restriction. Seeing Fang Rong emptying the storage bag, Zhang Zhuo's eyes were filled with regret.

Given Fang Rong's attitude and scheming, he will have several free fights after leaving the secret realm.

"I'm sorry, Junior Brother. I've caused you trouble."

Du Lang shook his head, "I don't blame you."

I hope this lesson can help me see the true nature of human beings and increase my vigilance.

Just then, a beehive rolled to Fang Rong's feet.

Fang Rong's expression changed.

This time he moved quickly and sprinkled the powder from the bottle.

The bees were eliminated in an instant.

Having been tricked twice, he won't be tricked a third time.

"Ye Xingzhou, come out if you have the guts!"

"Hiding is nothing!"

Fang Rong's pride lasted only three seconds before a bucket of manure fell from the sky.

Even though he was prepared, Ye Xingzhou had upgraded to version 2.0.

If you fall behind, you will be beaten.

Pour the manure on your head and pour it thoroughly.

“Aa ...

The cry was heart-wrenching, and those who heard it were sad and cried.

Fang Rong vomited violently and collapsed on the spot, running towards the water desperately.

I escaped the bees, but not the feces.

Fang Rong became the first monk to be covered in feces since the beginning of time.

Ye Xingzhou appeared on stage, swinging on a vine, carrying a bunch of bananas on his back.

Behind him, there was a group of little monkeys following.

Du Lang was stunned.

Zhang Zhuo's jaw dropped.

Ye Xingzhou raised the banana in his hand.

"Children, tie these two humans back! There will be a huge reward!"

“Roar, roar, roar!”

“Roar, roar, roar!”

The whole forest was filled with monkey calls, one louder than the other.

A group of monkeys carried the two people and left in a mighty procession.
