The rocky beach where the sheep monster Murman was located was originally the place where the leopard monster Sutu usually captured water monsters. Although the water monsters would not feel their blood boiling and uncomfortable like on the Moon Festival, they would occasionally crawl to this rocky beach to bask in the sun and remove some fungi and algae growing on the fish tails.
Now is the time for the leopard monster to hunt. Although it will fail in most cases, it will succeed once in three or five times. As long as it captures a water fairy, it will not have to worry about starving for the next half month.
This is the smiling face of the leopard demon Su Tu. Today is the Moon Festival, and Su Tu subconsciously came to this familiar area, wanting to take the opportunity to capture a few water fairies. Unexpectedly, as soon as he set foot in this area, he was attracted by a dazzling golden light.
Hearing the old goat Murman's uncontrollable laughter, Su Tu's heart suddenly became excited.
"Sutu, don't come over here. If you come over here, I will throw it into the lake and no one of us can get it!" The sheep demon Murman took two steps back and shouted loudly.
A new troublemaker came, but Xu Feng didn't care. His attention was always on the girl with animal ears. Like him, the girl's purpose was obviously not to hunt water fairies, otherwise, she would not appear here with only a poisoned crossbow.
However, what surprised Xu Feng was that the girl with animal ears had been aiming at Murman, but after the leopard monster Sutu appeared, the girl's target shifted to Sutu.
Being aimed at by a poisonous arrow, Su Su suddenly felt a little uncomfortable, as if some danger was about to appear around him. But in this situation, there were competitors with bad intentions all around him. This feeling of danger was present almost everywhere he went, but the leopard monster did not care.
Hearing the threat from the goat demon, the leopard demon grinned and said, "Old goat, we are all from Zuo City. Do you think you can protect a treasure like the golden pearl? Even if I let you leave now, do you dare to go back to Zuo City? Do you dare to wander in the wilderness? Hehe, don't let the golden pearl be kept and you get caught by those cultivators in the human circle and have your demon pill taken!"
"Big cat, it's none of your business whether I can keep the golden pearl or not. Just get out of my way. Otherwise, we'll go our separate ways and no one will get it!" said the sheep demon Murman with a firm face.
At this time, Murman was already standing on the shore of the lake. The water had already reached his calves. From this position, he could easily throw the golden pearl into the center of the lake.
Golden pearls are of great benefit to other demon tribes, and even more so to water fairies. It is no exaggeration to say that they are sacred objects among the water fairy tribe.
"Okay, old goat, you are tough!" The leopard demon had a look of resentment on his face, a hint of murderous intent flashed in his eyes, and he slowly retreated.
"Old goat, I'm leaving. Don't let me meet you in the wilderness or Zuo City, otherwise... humph!" The leopard demon Sutu issued a death threat to Murman.
The goat demon Murman shuddered violently, with a look of fear on his face. In the wild beast stage, goats were no match for leopards, and once they met one, they couldn't run away.
After becoming intelligent creatures, although they were all classified as monsters, the leopard monster also suppressed the sheep monster innately. However, although the leopard monster maintained an advantage over the sheep monster in combat power, it could not completely crush it like it did in the beast period.
It is not uncommon for the leopard demon to be killed by the sheep demon when he is not careful. This time, the leopard demon Su Tu is determined to get the golden pearl, but he is also afraid that the sheep demon will really throw the golden pearl into the lake.
In the real world, cheetahs are good at bursts and short-distance running, and can reach speeds of over 110 kilometers per hour in an instant. After becoming a demon, this talent has been completely inherited, and their instantaneous speed is almost unmatched by any other demon.
Seeing the leopard monster Sutu retreat, Murman felt slightly relieved. The leopard monster Sutu was also a lone ranger in Zuo City, but he was very powerful. Many monster teams and tribes were unwilling to provoke such an existence.
Although it also acts alone, the reason is different from that of the leopard monster. It is not that it does not want to join the team, but because it is too weak and too old. Its potential has been exhausted and there is no possibility of it becoming stronger. Therefore, it is disliked by many teams and is refused to join.
The sheep demon had no choice but to survive alone in Zuo City. With its strength, it had difficulty dealing with ordinary human adventurers, let alone other demons. The reason it could survive until now was entirely because it was tolerant and timid and cautious. Other demons did not target it because they were fellow demons and had no conflicts of interest.
"I can't stay in Zuo City any longer. The big cat will definitely spread the news that I got the golden pearl. By then, the other monsters will probably turn Zuo City upside down to find me..." The sheep monster Murman was secretly thinking about his way out, but he didn't notice that a strange ripple in the lake behind him was slowly swimming towards him.
When the sheep demon Murman sensed the danger, a water fairy suddenly jumped out of the lake and pounced on the sheep demon with bared fangs and claws.
"Wooden shield!" The goat demon saw the ferocious face of the water demon nearby and shouted loudly. A flash of light appeared, and a shield that looked like it was made entirely of rotten wood appeared in front of it.
The water fairy slammed into the wooden shield, breaking it into pieces and turning it into countless scattered light points. However, it was precisely because of the respite from the collision that the sheep fairy Murman retreated quickly and stood on the big rock again. He bent down to pick up the harpoon that was thrown aside, but felt a gust of sharp wind behind his head.
The sheep demon thought to himself that something was wrong and the ferocious face of the leopard demon Su Tu suddenly appeared in his mind. He held the harpoon tightly with both hands, rolled forward suddenly, and fell heavily from the rock.
The harpoon that was originally aimed at the water fairy was now aimed at the leopard monster Sutu who was flying into the air behind him. However, at this moment, the leopard monster that pounced on Murman suddenly shook its body in mid-air, and the pounce movement became deformed.
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
A crossbow arrow, with only half of the bone finger exposed, pierced into its lower back. The severe pain made the leopard monster Sutu roar, and his body smashed towards the stone where Murman had been standing before.
"Good opportunity!" Murman's eyes lit up. If the leopard monster was killed here, the news that it obtained the golden pearl would not spread.
Thinking of this, Murman pulled the trigger of the spear gun without hesitation, then jumped up and hid behind another big rock.
