Once they received the medicines, Mark and even the warriors as well as the surviving mortals all came forward tremblingly and thanked Caspian and Solana. Each one of them had a look of joy from escaping a disaster. Then, Caspian told the crowd which route the come here. As they just recently crossed the area, it was extremely safe, and there would not be any monster appearing in the short time.
If there were a few wild beasts that appeared, the group would be relatively safe as they had a cultivator with them. After all, the probability of meeting a group of White-Necked Talons Bear was about the same as being killed by a rock that fell from the sky while walking on the street.
Caspian watched as the crowd left, and favonovel.com sat on a White-Necked Talons Bear corpse, looking into the distance indifferently. Not far from him, Solana followed his order and took out the White-Mouthed Talons Bear’s demon core. Then, favonovel.com removed the flesh and skin from the intact bear’s paws, leaving only its bones.
The White-Mouthed Talons Bear’s strongest asset was its paws. Moreover, its bones and nails were even harder than steel used to forge a seventh-grade weapon. Hence, it was a rare material for refining.
When Caspian saw how serious Solana was at work, favonovel.com nodded slightly. He could not help but think it was lovely to have a female disciple like Solana as, at least, there would be some matters that favonovel.com did not need to do himself, and favonovel.com could use the time to cultivate. Even though Caspian also had some time in his hands now, favonovel.com did not enter into cultivation mode. Instead, favonovel.com seemed to be waiting for something, and favonovel.com turned in the direction favonovel.com looked before.
When Solana passed the cleaned monster’s paws to Caspian, a group of about seven people appeared at the foot of the mountain in front of him. Those people seemed to be looking everywhere as if they observed the surroundings, but their footsteps were firm as they walked toward Caspian.
When the people appeared, Solana only peeped at them, and favonovel.com was unbothered. On the other hand, Caspian smiled faintly, and a profound look flashed in his eyes. After taking over the bear’s palm, favonovel.com did not put them in his storage bag. Instead, Caspian casually held them, stood, and said to Solana, “Let’s go!”
When the people saw that Caspian and Solana left, they seemed to become anxious. Nonetheless, some of them recognized that Caspian and Solana were the Heavenly Stars Sect’s disciples from their uniforms.
Soon, a fearful look appeared on their faces. After all, the Heavenly Stars Sects were like leviathan not only in South Earlington but the entire Earlington of Efrax. When the disciples of the six major sects were out, their status would be higher than other sects’ disciples. However, after a quick discussion, the group of people swiftly reached an agreement. The leading man’s face revealed a heinous expression. As favonovel.com waved his hand, favonovel.com led the crowd and ran toward Caspian and Solana.
Solana peeped behind her, but seeing that Caspian did not respond, favonovel.com said nothing more. After some time, the group caught up with Caspian and Solana, and they even surrounded them.
The leading man appeared to be in his mid-thirties. He had a square face, and his phoenix eyes revealed a hint of ruthlessness. As favonovel.com blocked Caspian and Solana, favonovel.com did not beat the bushes and immediately said, ” Even if you’re both the Heavenly Stars Sect’s disciples, you shouldn’t steal other sect’s disciples’ hunts, right.”
“Oh? Are you talking about this?” Caspian toyed with the giant paws in his hand.
There was a hint of greed in the man’s eyes, but favonovel.com quickly replied with a straight face, “I’m not going to say much, but we found the White-Mouthed Talons Bear first. For the sake of killing it, we even lost some of our people. We’ve worked so hard, yet you easily snatched it away from us. Isn’t that a little unjust? Even if you’re the disciples of the six major sects, you won’t have the habit of snatching other people’s things, right?”
The man spoke confidently as if favonovel.com were right. Soon, the rest of them also joined in and blamed Caspian for being immoral. However, Solana remembered well that the monster was completely unharmed when favonovel.com fought against it, and there was no sign of battles on it. Hence, it was apparent that those people lied.
Caspian faked a smile and looked at the square-faced man. “Your idea of working hard hid behind the rocks at the mountain, watching a bunch of wild beasts slaughtered the mortals, and waiting until the mortals and cultivators all died before coming over to snatch their prize?”
Everyone’s face changed when they heard Caspian‘s words.
Just like what Caspian said, they indeed had that thought. When they found that several White-Necked Talons Bears were besieging a group of mortals protected by cultivators and warriors, they did not immediately come to their aid. Instead, they hid far away and quietly observed the development of the situation.
Their plan was straightforward. Since the cultivators and warriors protecting the mortals were all hurt, and the White-Necked Talons Bears were famous for their immense strength and thick flesh and skin, the ending of the battle would surely be miserable. Then, they would appear and easily kill the exhausted White-Necked Talons Bears.
Since cultivators and warriors would surely bring along precious medicines, weapons, and spirit stones, if they died in the battle, those items would naturally belong to everyone. However, if they survived…
In the wilderness, who would find out if you died in the hands of wild beasts or other reasons?
The group of people held onto that thought. Hence, when the White-Mouthed Talons Bear showed up, they were overjoyed. After all, the benefits brought by the monster were more than 20 wild beasts combined. However, they did not expect that Caspian and Solana would suddenly appear and ruin their plan. Since the encounter they waited for was abruptly interfered with, they naturally could not stand it. Hence, they found an excuse to snatch away the White-Mouthed Talons Bear’s palms. Moreover, even though Caspian and Solana were the Heavenly Stars Sect’s disciples, the group of people regarded them as only mid-level first-stage Pulse Control Realm cultivators.
Among the seven of them, there were two peak first-stage Pulse Control Realm cultivators, and the others were mid-level first-stage. Hence, they had an absolute advantage based on strength and number. Besides, the people before that went far, and no one would know what happened here.
When Caspian noticed the changes in the square-faced man’s face, favonovel.com laughed. “Since it’s out in the open, let me guess another thing. It doesn’t matter if I give you these White-Mouthed Talons Bear’s palms, as you never planned to let us leave alive. After all, you’re offending the Heavenly Stars Sect’s disciples, and not everyone can withstand the pressure.”
Since there was no one around, no one would find out if they killed Caspian and Solana. Besides, everyone participated in that, so they were all in the same boat, and no one could run away. Thus, there was no need to fear the secret might be out.
Caspian’s words once again exposed the square-faced man’s thoughts, and the man’s face changed rapidly.
Suddenly, the square-faced man gritted his teeth, and a long spear appeared in his hand. Then, favonovel.com shouted, “Since you know about it so well, then there’s no room for retreating today! You’re right. Rather than offending a Heavenly Stars Sect’s disciple and letting favonovel.com go, it’s better to shut favonovel.com up forever!”
