Chapter 508 A Henchman
During the break, Li Ye sent someone to sum up the outcome of the day’s battle.
Zhao Batian’s contribution to the battle on Blackstone Mountain was tremendous. If the cultivators of Zhenjiang City in the Taiyi Real Immortal Realm had not found that the lair of the fierce beasts was on Blackstone Mountain, the cultivators of the demon clan would not have gathered there to fight the immortals and fierce beasts.
In addition, if Zhao Batian had not been so arrogant and domineering, the Great Cultivators of Zhenjiang City would not have been suppressed by the immortals’ Xuanhuang Demon-subduing Invocations. Then Li Ye would have been attacked by the immortals head-on, even though You Daxiao came to help him with about a hundred cultivators in the Immortal Realm—maybe Li Ye would not have asked them to fight, but would have run away directly with Duchess and the others.
Therefore, Li Ye’s feelings toward Zhao Batian were actually somewhat complicated. Although Zhao Batian was very annoying, he was really good to Li Ye. He gave a lot of Magic Treasures to Li Ye so that the Luke Sword could be upgraded to the middle stage of the high-ranking Magic Treasure. Moreover, he used his demons’ fighting abilities and lives to consume the immortals’ Xuanhuang Demon-subduing Invocations.
Speaking of the class-ranking of the Luke Sword, the gains of today’s battle had to be mentioned.
Li Ye killed more than 20 immortals personally and with White Wolf’s and the demon leopard’s help, he finally killed Xu Beiwang and got more than 20 storage bags. The Magic Treasures were basically fed to the Luke Sword. As expected, even though there were three high-ranking Magic Treasures among them, the Luke Sword could not be upgraded to the high stage of the high-ranking Magic Treasure and there was still a gap.
Although the Luke Sword was at the middle stage of the high-ranking Magic Treasure, it was more powerful than the ordinary Magic Treasure at the same stage. When the cultivators in the Immortal Realm fought him before, no one used any high-ranking Magic Treasures. In the hand-to-hand combat, the Luke Sword won completely every time.
The Luke Sword did not have many outstanding qualifications. Why it was so strong was because it had been transformed by the Dragon Qi.
In addition to the Magic Treasures, Li Ye gave some Dan Pills to Duchess, the proprietress, the sparrow, You Daxiao and the cultivators of Liuxi Town, especially the sparrow. Although it ran faster than anyone in the battle, Li Ye did not expect it to fight, so he did not treat it badly.
After he divided the gains from the immortals, it was the turn of the fierce beasts’ bodies.
Master Wei did not urgently dispatch many fierce beasts, but because of the total number of the fierce beasts, there were five to six thousand in total. Except for the few hundred that eventually escaped, most of them died in front of Blackrock Mountain. Different from the fierce beasts’ bodies that Li Ye got before, there were many Great Cultivators in this group of fierce beasts.
Li Ye did not kill too many fierce beasts. At the beginning of the battle, he blocked the fierce beasts’ attack, staying among the cultivators of Liuxi Town. Later, he went to fight the immortals. Mainly, he had fought against Xu Beiwang for a long time.
At this time, the cultivators of Liuxi Town carried on with their style. They gave Li Ye half of the fierce beasts’ bodies as repayment to him for the Dan Pills.
Li Ye did not give them many Dan Pills. After all, there were more than a thousand cultivators, so they did not have to do that. However, he did not know what was in Qi Potian’s mind. Qi Potian asked the members of the Killing Hands to take the initiative to give the fierce beasts’ bodies to Li Ye, so Li Ye could not refuse them.
“Big Master, if you don’t take them, you will be looking down on us. It is as if you are not treating us as your subordinates and not regarding yourself as our Big Master!” Qi Potian said with a particularly serious and righteous expression.
He continued, “Before you became our Big Master, the Big Master would take away half of the gains of any battle. At that time, although we were unwilling, we were forced to do so by the Big Master’s strength. But it is different now. If you, the Son of God, and the others did not charge forward, we would all have died, so you have to take these fierce beasts’ bodies!”
Li Ye thought that Qi Potian’s words sounded so reasonable that he could not refuse at all.
After Li Ye received the fierce beasts’ bodies from the Killing Hands, the other cultivators of Liuxi Town felt that something was wrong.
Originally, they all came from Liuxi Town and were a whole. Compared with Zhao Batian’s team, they were all under Prince An’s direct command. Now that Qi Potian made such a scene, he seemed to be seeking personal privileges and wanted to bring the Killing Hands closer to Prince An.
“How could he do that? Although Prince An is the Big Master of the Killing Hands, everyone knows that the Killing Hands had nothing to do with Prince An before. Qi Potian and his cultivators wanted to catch a ride on Prince An’s coattails, so they shamelessly asked Prince An to be their Big Master!”
After Zhao Junyi, the bearded cultivator and the other cultivators discussed it, they felt that this matter could not be left as is. When Prince An received the fierce beasts’ bodies from the Killing Hands, he would definitely treat them differently. If there was anything good in the future, he would definitely think of the Killing Hands first. Then what should they do in the future?
Before long, Zhao Junyi, the bearded cultivator and the other cultivators chose Wei Weiwu and the other two cultivators of Liuxi Town in the Real Immortal Realm as their representatives. They brought everyone to hand in the fierce beasts’ bodies, so Li Ye could not refuse them.
“Prince An, you are the commander of the cultivators of Liuxi Town. We survived the fierce beasts’ attacks because you fought bravely. In the battle of Blackstone Mountain, Zhao Batian brought five to six thousand cultivators, but about a thousand of them died. However, because you fought bravely at the front, less than a hundred cultivators of Liuxi Town died in the battle!”
“In other words, we survived and also gained a lot because of you! You have to take these fierce beasts’ bodies. Otherwise, you will be looking down on us and you think that we are inferior to the cultivators of the Killing Hands and will treat us differently!”
Wei Weiwu repeated the draft Zhao Junyi gave him. He sounded very righteous, as if he would kill himself by bumping his head in shame if Li Ye refused him.
Li Ye thought that Wei Weiwu’s words were reasonable. If he did not take half of the fierce beasts’ bodies, he was looking down on them and did not deserve to be their leader.
Li Ye was forced to take several hundred fierce beasts’ bodies.
Li Ye thought that would be the end of the matter, but it was not.
Before long, the cultivators brought by Zhao Batian, namely those independent cultivators, found Li Ye. Their leader was Xu Lang, who came to inquire about Li Ye’s identity with a group of Great Cultivators previously.
Xu Lang said that everyone survived today because Li Ye and his cultivators stopped the immortals. Especially, Li Ye fought against an immortal in the Taiyi Real Immortal Realm alone with his cultivation in the Ground Immortal Realm. He was very powerful. The cultivators saved by Li Ye felt that merely expressing their gratitude to Li Ye verbally was insufficient to express the depths of their feelings.
Most cultivators of the demon clan were clear about what to love or hate. They were more straightforward and had fewer schemes than ordinary people. With some representatives, Xu Lang offered half of the independent cultivators’ gains, namely the fierce beasts’ bodies.
Li Ye refused this time. “This is what all of you have gained through hard fighting. Every cultivator sacrificed his blood and some even sacrificed their lives. Victory belongs to everyone. Without your fighting side by side, we would not have won, so I can’t take them!”
However, Xu Lang did not spend too much time trying to persuade Li Ye, but took the lead in kowtowing in front of Li Ye and did not get up.
“Hehe. The cultivators of Liuxi Town have expressed their sincerity. If we still do not express our sincerity, it seems that we have no conscience. If this gets out, what can we do in the future? After all, everyone is in awe of you.”
“What’s more, I heard from a familiar demon of Panfeng City that you will be taking them to the human world to have a look around and do some sightseeing?”
“Sorry, I want that too... Not only me but also many demons want to see the prosperity of the human world. If we don’t seize this opportunity to curry favor with you now, how could I ask you to take us out later?
Li Ye looked up at the sky and sighed. The cultivators of the demon clan were really cute. They were truly sincere. If they were in the human world, they would be models for morality.
Li Ye had no choice but to accept everyone’s kindness in the end.
As a result, the fierce beasts’ bodies in his inventory increased by a few thousand.
The fierce beasts’ bodies were filled with several storage bags. If You Daxiao and the others did not help Li Ye, Li Ye would have to carry them all by himself. Maybe he would be regarded as a migrant worker in the 1980s when he walked on the road.
Li Ye estimated that if all these fierce beasts’ bodies could be exchanged for Magic Treasures and fed to the Luke Sword, the Luke Sword would directly be upgraded to the nonpareil Magic Treasure, skipping the high grade of the high ranking Magic Treasure!
Li Ye was very excited at the thought of this nonpareil processed Magic Treasure. After all, natural Magic Treasures were limited and they would not increase. Their quantities were fixed. All the refined ones were processed Magic Treasures and the one with the highest class-ranking was nonpareil.
“It will be a difficult task to exchange all these fierce beasts’ bodies!” Li Ye sighed silently. He looked at the direction of Macaque Mountain with hope. “I hope that Macaque Mountain will not disappoint me!”
After sighing, Li Ye planned to sit down with Duchess and the others. They made a bonfire and the proprietress was barbecuing some game. The fragrance of meat was overwhelming and whetted the peoples’ appetite.
Inadvertently, Li Ye saw Qi Potian peeping at him with a mysterious smile on his face, from a distance. Seeing his sly smile, Li Ye trembled and suddenly understood. “Damn it. This guy is really a schemer!”
His smile and expression were clearly saying, “Your Highness, how did I do? Did I do a good job? Come on, praise me. Praise me heartily...”
“A henchman...” Li Ye did not know whether to laugh or cry. In front of all the cultivators, Li Ye walked over, patted Qi Potian’s shoulder and praised him. Of course, Li Ye said nothing more except to praise him for his brave fighting today. In the end, Li Ye awarded him with a bottle of Dan Pills which was from Xu Beiwang’s storage bag and of the highest class-ranking.
Qi Potian was extremely excited. He looked at Li Ye with avid eyes, looking as if he was willing to sacrifice himself for Li Ye at any time.
Li Ye rewarded Qi Potian because he learned from Qi Potian’s gaze and smile that this guy took the initiative to hand in the fierce beasts’ bodies with the members of the Killing Hands in order to set a good example for all the cultivators present, and to draw everyone to hand in the fierce beasts’ bodies.
In other words, without Qi Potian’s initiative, they would not have given Li Ye half of their fierce beasts’ bodies, even though they were very grateful and respectful toward Li Ye.
The cultivators spent most of the night handling the fierce beasts’ bodies. When Li Ye sat down beside Duchess, he was satisfied. Especially when he ate the delicious meat barbecued by the proprietress, he felt so comfortable that he almost wanted to moan.
In the past battles in the human world, for example, the battles in Hedong, after he returned to his tent or mansion from the battlefield, he would take a bath and have a meal. After that, he liked to lie on Su Emei’s long legs. He rested his head on her pliant, plump thighs, which was very enjoyable.
At that time, when Li Ye opened his eyes, he could see her beautiful breasts and her beautiful face, smell her faint fragrance, feel the slight heat from her warm body and play with her hair... He felt great.
As a saying goes, take charge of the world when waking up and lie on a beauty’s knees when getting drunk.
After the exhaustion of hard work, nothing would make people feel more comfortable and relaxed than a beauty’s soft and warm body.
Then Li Ye looked around at all the beautiful women and female demons present. He sighed slightly and shook his head regretfully. They were not close enough, so it was not good to make such an excessive demand. And it was not good to do such a thing under the eyes of the public...
While Li Ye was thinking about that, You Daxiao stood up and patted his butt after he was full. He pulled a red-faced female demon and flew straight into the forest in front of everyone.
Li Ye did not know what to say.
The key point was that he did not go too far away and the trees over there began to shake from time to time.
“What the fuck.” Li Ye was full of resentment toward You Daxiao. “I treated you as my brother and gave you the leadership of my team, but you seduced my man... seduced my woman?”
Originally, Li Ye thought that this was a special case. After all, You Daxiao was the Son of God and charming, so it was not surprising that a female demon would like him.
Then he was surprised to find that the several thousand cultivators of the demon clan in front of Blackstone Mountain seemed to have a tacit understanding. All of them went into the forest in pairs. Soon, more than half of the campsite was empty...
“Hehe. I have really underestimated the huge demand for everyone to relax after the battle.”
“After all, the cultivators of the demon clan have rather wild characters.”
After eating a drumstick, the sparrow spread its wings comfortably. Looking at the sparse number of cultivators at the open campsite, it sighed and said, “What a beautiful scene! Just like the autumn harvest day, the men and women, who have been busy all day, are lying on the bumper grain and having a carnival after the bonfire party at night. Ah, this is the tension of life!”
Li Ye was speechless when he heard what the sparrow said.
The sparrow’s words were crude, but it was telling the truth.
Facing the empty campsite and hearing the rustling sound of branches and leaves in the forest, Li Ye still felt that he needed comfort...
“Elder Brother Ye, do you want to drink?” Duchess handed him a large jar of wine.
It was really large. It was half her size. She held it in front of her chest and her little head could not be seen. She could only stretch her neck out.
Li Ye thought that Duchess was considerate. In such a good night, the ones accompanied by beauties could enjoy themselves and the bachelors without beauties, could only drink wine.
“It is better to have wine than none.”
