Chapter 440.2: Dash up and fight!

　　After going all out running for several hundreds of miles and more than half an hour later, Fang Ping reached the entrance of the Forest of the Jiao King toward Yaokui City.

　　A massive sunflower was swaying in mid-air above Yaokui City.

　　Looking at the sunflower, the golden sunflower stalks were especially bright, and some golden sunflower seeds could be seen in the sunflower plate… Fang Ping almost wanted to go rob it.

　　Huang Jing was cautious, and he could not have been more so, as he completely restrained his aura.

　　Although it is impossible to conceal himself from close range, these ninth-ranks are currently guarding against the other ninth-ranks, and they would not intentionally investigate him, who was just a small seventh-rank.

　　Huang Jing was getting more and more excited!

　　This feeling of rushing in front of someone’s city gates… was really exciting!

　　Is not it exciting enough to watch ninth-rank release its aura while still dangling in front of it?

　　Right now, they may be killed instantly if anyone discovers them.

　　Huang Jing’s heartbeat was louder than normal, but Fang Ping did not mind. He gave Sunflower a quick glance before rushing into the Forest of the Jiao King.

　　Huang Jing exhaled a sigh of relief and cast a glance at Fang Ping. So stupidly brave!

　　Fang Ping ignored him and dashed away, saying: “The Forest of the Jiao King covers a large area, making it difficult to destroy all of it and also easier for others to notice. Later, we will level the core area only. That area will suffice!”

　　Fang Ping continued, “Then principal, head back to the City of Hope, and leave the divine weapon to me.”

　　“Fang Ping…”

　　Huang Jing did not know what to say, so after a long pause, he sighed, “Be careful!”

　　“Relax. In the chaos, entering the Demon Wood City is easy.”

　　However, the fact is that the more chaotic the situation, the stricter the city ban will be.

　　Fang Ping, who was only fifth-rank, would be noticed easily by the ninth-rank if he was a little careless. The ninth-rank can instantly kill him if he gets inside the attack range.

　　Huang Jing wanted to say something, but all he could manage was a sigh.

　　Fang Ping was more suitable than him for doing things like this.

　　At the very least, it is not that simple and much easier for human to face enmity if he was the one to cause havoc.

　　Fang Ping rushed all the way to the core of the Forest of the Jiao King in silence.

　　The entire Forest of the Jiao King was also silent.

　　The Jiao is a solitary beast. There are only a few beasts in its nest, and most them are already eaten. The Jiao rarely goes out to hunt.

　　The beasts in this area are all aware that the Golden Horned Beast King of the Forest of the Jiao King, is a bad thing. The Jiao didn’t even keep any door guards; he ate them all. Even the middle and lower ranked beasts know with their limited intelligence that the Forest of the Jiao King is a forbidden area, one that’s even more dangerous than other major forbidden areas.

　　This also meant that there were no beasts in Fang Ping’s way as he dashed through the Forest of the Jiao King.

　　Fang Ping eventually arrived in a clearing.

　　This is where he last saw the Jiao.

　　Fang Ping came to a halt and took a deep breath, saying, “Principal, let’s do it, hurry!”

　　Huang Jing cast a glance into the distance, where he saw the exit to Tianmen City.

　　At this moment, Tianmen City also had the aura of a ninth-rank, but not both, as the Demon Wood has not released its aura.

　　Huang Jing said little before the golden dagger appeared in front of him.

　　The dagger then shot out, bursting with destructive power, instantly cutting off the surrounding trees, and all the trees burst open in a radius of several tens of meters.

　　Huang Jing moves at breakneck speed, his dagger snaking through the mountains and forests. Whichever place he goes, that place is emptied.

　　The boundaries of the area for more than a thousand meters have all been cut and burst in the blink of an eye.

　　Fang Ping and Huang Jing were a little too loud.

　　They seemed to draw some attention from Tianmen City’s direction.

　　But the Tianmen City Lord did not have time to worry about what happened to the Forest of the Jiao King right now. It was not even his territory.

　　They drew not only attention from the Tianmen City side, but also from the City of Hope.

　　But everyone has the same thoughts. The ninth-ranks should not act easily at this time. A little carelessness can lead to disaster.

　　Tianmen City and the City of Hope are both vulnerable sides at the moment, and neither wanted to act hastily.

　　Nobody knows the specifics of what happened.

　　But in the east, two ninth-rank auras mixed with anger were getting closer.

　　If they had not been delayed by several other cities in the middle, they probably have already arrived here by now.

　　Two kings from the Forest of Hundred Beasts in the forbidden area have finished investigating.

　　The guards of the eighth-rank have been confirmed to have been killed, leaving some golden skeletons that have not yet been wiped out. The scars on the skeletons had an extremely strong mix of Demon Wood aura.

　　At the moment, the two kings of the forbidden land are flying with the Jiao towards Demon Wood City, requesting an explanation.

　　Even these two kings from the forbidden place had to explain a few words as they passed through a few cities to avoid unnecessary trouble.

　　So, even though they were quick to fly, they have been delayed for a while and have yet to arrive here.

　　Adding on to that, there is also a towing oil bottle, so it slowed them down even more. (Translator’s note: “Towing oil bottle” here refers to someone who intentionally slows down their speed, basically the Jiao)

　　When the Jiao and the two beast kings arrived, Huang Jing had already leveled several thousand meters with the dagger.

　　The enormous Forest of the Jiao King appeared to have gone bald, and a vast deserted area appeared in the center.

　　Huang Jing is also nearing the end of his endurance at the moment.

　　The wounds from the previous battle have not yet healed.

　　Fang Ping took the dagger, stopped Huang Jing’s destruction and asked: “How can I make the dagger burst into a stronger aura, Principal? I can’t seem to control it…”

　　“When using a divine weapon that isn’t yours, it is difficult to control unless you have been nurturing it for a few years. It was only because the dagger contained a large amount of the previous master’s spiritual power and the power of heaven and earth, I could explode with a full blow before…”

　　“If you want to explode a stronger aura… Just infuse some power of heaven and earth and spiritual power, then detonate it.” Huang Jing explained briefly.

　　“Fang Ping, if you can’t do anything, just don’t get hurt!” Huang Jing said solemnly.

　　He no longer tried to persuade Fang Ping not to go to Tianmen City at this point.

　　He could only hope that Fang Ping did not get into any trouble. Fang Ping might not retreat completely if a battle involving the ninth-ranks breaks out.

　　“Don’t worry… you go back first!”

　　Fang Ping already felt the two powerful auras from afar moving toward this side, and exhaled, “Don’t mention me immediately after you return, so as not to cause trouble.”

　　Huang Jing nodded slightly, looking into the distance, knowing he had to go.

　　“Then I will leave now!”

　　Huang Jing ceased speaking and left.

　　When he left, Huang Jing wondered if Qin Fengqing had returned to the City of Hope or if he had followed. God pray he isn’t messing around.

　　……

　　Fang Ping was uninterested in Qin Fengqing.

　　He ran all the way to Tianmen City after obtaining the divine weapon, and while running, he used the divine weapon to cut the trees in the passing area.

　　At this point, there was a clear path through the forest leading from the Forest of the Jiao King to Tianmen City.

　　Fang Ping’s movements came to a halt as he approached Tianmen City, and he quickly took out his shovel and began digging tunnels. He would not dare to run from the surface. Many high ranks were patrolling the sky above Tianmen City at this time.

　　The ninth-rank Tianmen City Lord’s aura has exploded to the extreme!

　　The auras of the two ninth ranks had already approached Tianmen City.

　　The City Lord of Tianmen did not know if the other party was passing by or how, but he had to be cautious now. Although the forbidden land and Tianmen City had not been at war for a long time, small conflicts had occurred.

　　Who knows what is going on!

　　……

　　At the same time, when the City Lord of Tianmen was on high alert and Fang Ping was digging a tunnel.

　　The Jiao, who was following the two kings of the forbidden land to ask for an explanation, was also considering how to start a battle immediately.

　　Will the kings of the forbidden land be able to stop himself if he immediately started a fight on sight?

　　He was done in vain once Silly Wood and Mu Wang explained it clearly.

　　He can be suspected of treason once that happens.

　　It will be over once the matter of killing the messenger and the guard is revealed.

　　The Jiao also became extremely nervous. This case cannot withstand a thorough investigation. It has not yet digested the immortal essence of the guards, and if the kings of the forbidden land decide to carry out a thorough investigation, it will be easy to find out what exactly happened.

　　The Jiao became anxious.

　　He suddenly sped up and seemed irritable as he approached his lair with this level of annoyance.

　　Something does not feel right!

　　His own territory appears to have been infiltrated!

　　The Jiao yelled up to the sky when he arrived at the Forest of the Jiao King!

　　His lair had been destroyed!

　　It worked so hard and planted a hundred years of trees, and countless number of trees have been fallen!

　　“Roar!”

　　Cunning was furious, and a figure flashed through his mind, but he did not think too deeply. The opportunity presented itself at this precise moment!

　　His nest has been flattened for no apparent reason; now he can just dash up and fight!

　　The Jiao could not care less about the two kings. The golden light flashed away, roaring and flying towards Tianmen City, it was done by you!

　　The two massive monster beasts behind him also noticed the situation of the Forest of the Jiao.

　　Before they could fully investigate, they saw that the Golden Horn Beast King had already flown towards Tianmen City.

　　The two monster beasts exchanged a few words before following.

　　The Demon Wood must give an explanation!

　　The Jiao shot out of them almost approached Tianmen City in the blink of an eye, just as they were about to ask for an explanation.

　　At the same time, the City Lord of Tianmen stepped into the air and arrived at the city’s gate, his face scowling.

　　The Golden Horn Beast King came accompanied by the two kings from the forbidden land. What exactly does he want?

　　The City Lord of Tianmen is still contemplating what is going on, what the pros and cons are…

　　The Jiao roared far away, with no intention of communicating. The power of heaven and earth that had already been brewed on the golden giant horn, like a towering giant pillar, instantly bombarded the gate of Demon Wood City!

　　“Presumptuous!”

　　A roar that can be heard all over the world!

　　The City Lord of Tianmen was furious. The Golden Horn Beast King is starting a war!
