When Ye Wuque, Xiang San, and Jiao San finally emerged from the fortress, seemingly in a daze, and saw the bright light shining down, the three of them felt as if they had crawled out of hell and regained a glimmer of life.
“This time it really is…we…” Xiang San’s voice was hoarse, weak and trembling from being drenched in cold sweat.
His words seemed incomplete.
Jiao San, his voice trembling with lingering fear, said, "Did you see that? Zhu Yi... just like that, he died! A Sequence One, just like that..."
"Silence!" At this moment, Ye Wuque was also trembling with fear, but a cold shout rang out!
Jiao Sancai immediately realized what was happening and quickly shut his mouth.
The fortress behind them was the only place that all the Beast Guardians of the Beast Organization had to pass through after completing their missions.
In just a short while, several beast guardians had come and gone, their gazes sweeping around.
Saying such things in a place like this is practically suicidal!
"Let's leave here and go back to the beast's den."
Ye Wuque spoke coldly, then took the lead and left the fortress.
Xiang San and Jiao San naturally agreed with Ye Wuque and immediately followed.
Beast's Nest.
In Xuan San's memory, anyone in the Beast Organization who is qualified to become a Beast Protector, regardless of their rank, will automatically receive a unique cave dwelling within the Beast Nest.
However, the standards and hierarchies are also very strict!
The earlier a number appears in the sequence, the higher its status; those in sequence one have even more privileges.
Returning to the beast's lair is like coming home for the beast guardians.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
Three figures streaked through the void of the Flying Goose Universe at incredible speed.
Ye Wuque remained hidden in the center, with Xiang San and Jiao San on the left and right respectively.
"Xuan San, I never expected you to say such things in front of Elder You! Should I say you have courage, or are you crazy?" Xiang San seemed to have recovered temporarily and couldn't help but speak up.
Jiao San remained silent.
"Hmph! In that situation, we were about to die, and I still didn't take a gamble? I wasn't willing to give up!"
Ye Wuque's icy voice exploded.
Upon hearing this, Xiang San's eyes flickered beneath his mask, and he finally let out a soft sigh.
"Sigh, I can probably understand your thoughts, but I have to say, in that situation, I... am not as good as you!"
"In addition, you helped me once before in the ancient ruins, so I'll say a few words."
"Beast protectors are always wary and cautious of each other, but this time we have gone through life and death together and walked through the gates of hell."
"You don't really believe that Elder You actually accepted us and will wholeheartedly nurture us, do you? That's just an excuse, most likely to shut up gossip. If it weren't for our great contribution this time, we'd probably end up like Zhu Yi..."
Xiang San lowered his voice for the next few words, so that only Ye Wuque and Jiao San could hear them.
"So, Xuan San, I advise you not to mess around anymore. Just honestly use the name of Elder You's faction. Even if it's just an empty promise, it can still play a huge role!"
"What's more, we'll have a reward this time!"
Xiang San seemed to be speaking frankly to Ye Wuque, offering him advice.
"Xiang San is right. This time, it's terrifying! Now that I think about it, Zhu Yi's death must be related to the ancient ruins. He may have found something, but he didn't tell us, and Elder You eventually discovered it."
In short, he ruined himself!
"Xuan San, it's too difficult for you to move up the rankings!"
"Want to gain Elder You's favor? How could you possibly do it without becoming a first-rank beast protector?"
"But if we Beast Protectors want to upgrade, like you, you must go to the 'Beast Fighting Arena' to challenge the second-ranked members of your Xuanhu lineage. Only after winning will you be qualified to challenge the second-ranked members!"
"Can you do it?"
"Let's digest this reward first, and then make our plans slowly."
Having experienced great ups and downs, Xiang San and Jiao San finally confided in Ye Wuque and said this.
I appreciate your kindness.
"Man fights for a breath of air, Buddha fights for a stick of incense!"
"Some opportunities, once missed in this lifetime, will never come again!"
Ye Wuque's tone remained cold, yet it carried a conviction and determination that anyone could hear.
"Alright, now that we've reached the beast's lair, let's split up for now and meet again later."
"Remember, we'd better keep this whole affair involving Zhu Yi and Elder You a secret forever!"
Ahead, we have reached the vicinity of the beast's nest.
After Ye Wuque spoke, he changed direction and entered the base of the "Xuanhu" sequence.
Xiang San and Jiao San watched Ye Wuque leave, their eyes fixed on his resolute figure, and remained silent.
"You can't reason with a damned ghost! This Xuan San... he's really gone mad!" Xiang San finally said.
"We've been through life and death together. Haven't you heard the saying? The colder a person seems, the more passionate they are inside. It's not surprising that he would have such thoughts. However, how difficult is it to advance in rank? It's a matter of life and death! Just one rank apart is a world of difference!"
"I hope I'll have a chance to see him again in the future..." Jiao San sighed and turned to leave.
Xiang San also left without lingering.
...
"kill!"
"Eat his ears!"
"Drink its blood!"
"Hahahaha! Slaughter!"
...
At this moment, the closer Ye Wuque got to his own camp in the beast's nest, the more he could hear the earth-shattering, bloody shouts and battles coming from outside the nest, seemingly from the edge of the area.
In that direction lies the most insane and bloodthirsty location in the entire Beast Organization...
The Colosseum!
Ye Wuque glanced at it briefly before looking away, and then, as if sensing something, he suddenly looked up at the void above!
Immediately, Ye Wuque's gaze, hidden behind his mask, sharpened slightly!
Above the void of the Flying Goose Universe, at the heart of the Beast Organization's headquarters, stands a... colossal aerial city!
Floating silently, within the colossal city in the sky stands an ancient and wondrous tower, its surface covered with various beast-shaped inscriptions, its entire body a striking black and white...
"Beast God Tower!"
Ye Wuque spoke softly, his gaze deep and sharp.
This is a memory from Xuan San.
The colossal city in the sky is named "Beast God City".
That Beast God Tower is an incredible treasure; it can lock down cause and effect—it's unbelievable!
"Now it seems that the most likely reason that triggered the ferocious beast bloodline within Wang Huaijin was... the power of the Beast God Tower!"
"However, the Beast God Tower should be unable to counter the Silent and Traceless Technique of the Acacia Emperor for the time being. Otherwise, I would have been attacked by a group of enemies long ago!"
"Judging from this distance, the Beast God Tower is indeed extraordinary, but the Beast God City is surrounded by isolation barriers and formations, so we need to get close to determine certain things..."
"Then you need to be qualified to enter the Beast God City."
"Within Beast God City, there should be no shortage of powerful beings at the true supreme level within the Beast Organization, perhaps even those whose status and identity surpass those of the 'Black-Faced Elder'!"
From Xuan San's memories, Ye Wuque knew that within the Beast Guardian level, only those Beast Guardians who had reached 'Sequence One' were qualified to go to the Beast God City.
Because every new Beast Guardian Sequence One, once born, will be certified and crowned within the Beast God City.
This also represents a kind of honor!
Ye Wuque withdrew his gaze and soon arrived at Xuan San's residence.
The interior is simply furnished and very clean.
Ye Wuque sat down cross-legged, his eyes deep and unfathomable.
He had a purpose in successfully infiltrating the Beast Organization; it wasn't just about experiencing life, but also about making the most of his time.
"The groundwork laid by Elder You, Xiang San, and Jiao San is almost done..."
"Let Xuan San reveal his undisguised, crazy ambition and drive," so that his subsequent actions will not be too abrupt, but rather reasonable.
He already had a clear plan in mind.
Ascend to the arena of life and death!
Challenge the second sequence of the Black Tiger sequence!
Then challenge Sequence One!
Ultimately, it replaced it.
First, become "Xuanhu Sequence One".
It can demonstrate certain value in front of Elder You.
More importantly, they now have the qualification to enter the Beast God City and get close to the Beast God Tower!
This is truly killing two birds with one stone!
After all, no matter where you are, the higher you climb, the higher your status and the more secrets you are qualified to access.
"Then there's only one last step: how to make the strength of the identity 'Xuan San' increase by leaps and bounds, even skyrocketing, in a short period of time in a way that is not abrupt or unreasonable!"
Otherwise, even if you successfully complete the challenge and become a first-order candidate, you will only expose yourself and waste time and opportunities.
Ye Wuque sat cross-legged with a smile on his lips.
He already had a solution to this problem.
In fact, this solution was just about to be delivered to him.
