Chapter 2154: Killing Intent Noticed

Zhao Hai didnt seem to notice Long Xiangs words. He continued walking towards the snake. The snake hissed louder as Zhao Hai got closer. And when Zhao Hai was around five meters away, the snake lunged towards him.

Seeing this, Deng Wen was about to move. His blade was already in his hand. However, Long Xiang stretched his arm to block him. Deng Wen stared for a moment before he discovered that the snake merely embraced Zhao Hais body. It looked comfortable with Zhao Hai.

Zhao Hai petted the huge snake and walked to the huge rock. The snake also moved and coiled around Zhao Hais waist. Its head was leaning on Zhao Hais shoulder.

Everyone who saw this couldnt help but stare at Zhao Hai. If they didnt know that this was Zhao Hais first time in the underground world, they would have thought that the huge snake was Zhao Hais pet.

Zhao Hai touched the snake and laughed before saying, Friend, let me rest at your place for a while. The big snake only readjusted its body to a more comfortable position. Zhao Hai sat cross legged on a good area underneath the rock and silently recovered his strength.

Seeing Zhao Hais actions, the others were stunned. After some time, Long Xiang sighed and said, I didnt expect his kid to be so formidable. I havent heard of someone taming the snakes on this island.

Hearing Long Xiangs words, a newcomer from the Imperial Beast Sect couldnt accept it, Thats because the Imperial Beast Sect didnt try. If we did, we would have tamed all of the snakes.

Upon hearing this, Long Xiang, Deng Wen, and the other veterans looked at the Imperial Beast Sect disciple. There was a hint of a smile in their eyes, but they didnt say anything.

The Imperial Beast Sect disciple was a bit scared when he saw Long Xiang looking at him. Then all of a sudden, he felt pain in the back of his head. He turned his head to see an angry Imperial Beast Sect Elder who smacked him in the head. He looked at the elder in confusion. The elder snorted and said, Dont talk nonsense if you dont know. Just keep quiet.

The disciple didnt dare to retort as he walked to the side. However, his face showed that he still wasnt convinced. The Imperial Beast Sect elder cupped his fist towards Long Xiang and said, Old Long, Im sorry. This kid doesnt know. Dont treat his words seriously.

Long Xiang waved his hand and said, Come on, with our relations.h.i.+p, do you think Ill care about such things? Rest well. We have tough battles ahead of us.

The Imperial Beast Sect elder nodded and then sat beside the Imperial Beast Sect disciple. The others from the Imperial Beast Sect also looked at the elder in confusion. They didnt know why the elder said such a thing.

The Imperial Beast Sect Elder looked at his team members and sighed inwardly, then he explained, Before you say anything, let me explain. What Elder Long said isnt wrong. The snakes on this island havent been tamed by anyone, including our Imperial Beast Sect. In the past, we tried multiple times to tame these snakes. But we failed every time. Instead, we were attacked by the snakes. We lost quite a few people to them.

As soon as the Imperial Beast Sect disciples heard this, they were stunned. They didnt expect the truth to be like this. Upon knowing this information, they couldnt help but look at Zhao Hai and the snake coiled around him. They looked very peaceful.

The Imperial Beast Sect Elder was also looking at Zhao Hai. Then he sighed and said, I didnt expect Zhao Hai to have such skills. It would have been nice if he joined our Imperial Beast Sect. What a pity. What a pity. As he said that, the eyes of the Imperial Beast Elder couldnt help but flash a cold light.

Then at this moment, Zhao Hai suddenly opened his eyes and turned to look towards the Imperial Beast Sect Elder. The elder was startled. The murderous look in his eyes immediately disappeared. Then he smiled towards Zhao Hai.

Zhao Hai also smiled faintly towards the elder, then he turned his head back and closed his eyes. The Elder from the Imperial Beast Sect was stunned. His heart couldnt help but sink. He was very clear that Zhao Hai felt the killing intent in his eyes. He knew that Zhao Hai was wary of him.

Thinking of this, the Imperial Beast Sect Elder couldnt help but curse. He didnt know what to describe Zhao Hai. He never thought Zhao Hai was so sensitive. He just showed a hint of killing intent, but Zhao Hai was able to notice it. Ever since the start of the expedition, the Imperial Beast Sect was always trying to deal with Zhao Hai. Now, this task has become even more troublesome.

It was natural for Zhao Hai to feel the killing intent from the Imperial Beast Sect Elder. Not to mention his Six-Senses Purification Technique, Zhao Hai also killed a lot of people. He was very sensitive towards any hostility towards him.

Regarding the response of the Imperial Beast Sect, Zhao Hai didnt feel that it was strange. It hasnt been a day or two since he had a conflict with the Imperial Beast Sect.

After resting for the entire day on the snake island, everyone returned to their peak condition. Zhao Hai also adjusted his body as everyone gathered beside Long Xiang.

Long Xiang looked at everyone and smiled faintly, Theres no need to be nervous. We have pa.s.sed through this route several times. We will be fine. Alright, follow me. Long Xiang moved and flew straight towards the lake.

The other Teleportation Stage cultivators also flew out without paying attention to the rest. Seeing this, Zhao Hai couldnt help but smile. Then he waved his hand, and a wooden board was thrown to the lake. Zhao Hai stepped on the board and used his spiritual qi to maneuver it forward.

Others saw Zhao Hai and stared. Then they followed his example. They threw out boards to the lake and used it to travel.

While flying, Long Xiang observed Zhao Hais actions. Then he turned to Deng Wen and said, That kid is smart. I remember the previous times when those fools swam across.

Deng Wen laughed when he heard this. However, his laugh made others look at him with envy. They hated that their sects didnt have such a genius disciple.

After two hours, Zhao Hai and the others finally arrived at the sh.o.r.e. Just ahead was a forest. But when Zhao Hai stepped on land, he immediately became alert. He could see that there were a lot of animal footprints on the sh.o.r.e. This meant that the sh.o.r.e was frequented by beasts.

At this time, Long Xiang and the rest of the group also descended to the sh.o.r.e. Long Xiang looked at everyone and said, This forest is famously known as the Death Forest in the underground world. The forest has an uncountable number of beasts. Entering the forest will most certainly spell death. But you dont need to worry, weve already traversed it in the past.

After he said this, Long Xiang howled. Not long after, the cries of birds were heard from the sky. Then the sound of the flapping of wings came. What surprised Zhao Hai was that the flapping of the wings was very chaotic, it was as if there were a lot of birds coming over.

Before long, Zhao Hai and the others noticed a dark shadow floating towards them. When the dark shadow was on top of the heads, Zhao Hai and the others investigated it.

The dark shadow was a flock of birds. The birds werent big, and they seemed to be very weak. This confused Zhao Hai. He didnt know why Long Xiang called the birds over.

Long Xiang turned to the newcomers and said, Although the birds dont seem to have a lot of offensive strength, their sheer numbers made them intimidating to most beasts. With how many birds there are in this flock, they could peck a powerful beast to death. Alright, you should have brought flying beasts with you, right? In the past, we werent allowed to use flying mounts because wed be attacked once we flew. But now, with the bird flock as a cover, we dont have to be afraid of being discovered.

Hearing Long Xiang, Zhao Hai couldnt help but stare. Then he looked at Long Xiang and asked, Elder, why didnt we use flying beasts when we left Snake Island?

Zhao Hais questions also caused others to wonder. Then they all looked at Long Xiang for an explanation. Long Xiang smiled faintly and said, That isnt a good idea. Your flying beasts wont have the snake liquid. If the flying beasts are released on Snake Island, their smell would attract the snakes. When the time comes, your mounts would end up as food for the snakes.

Zhao Hai nodded. He wasnt embarra.s.sed. After all, his understanding of the underground world was too small. He knew that there must be a reason why Long Xiang only allowed them to use their mounts at this time. He only thought that Long Xiang and the others were only doing this to play a prank on the newcomers, so he asked.

Long Xiang looked at Zhao Hai and patted his shoulder before saying, Your mind runs very fast. n.o.body asked me that question before. Hahaha. Finally, a smart one appeared.

Zhao Hai smiled bitterly and said, Why do I feel like youre not praising me?

Long Xiang couldnt help but laugh. At this time, it was Deng Wen who patted Zhao Hais shoulder as he said, Dont worry. Hes really praising you. Hahaha.

Zhao Hai shook his head as he forced a smile. He couldnt understand Long Xiangs humor. Fortunately, he wasnt pranked.

At this moment, Long Xiang ordered, Release your mounts. Well leave immediately. We cant be late! Everyone responded and released their own flying mounts. Before long, everyone rose to the skies and disappeared amongst the flock of birds. Then the birds turned into a huge shadow and flew into the distance. The team from the surface could no longer be spotted.
