“What a horrible start!”

Zhang Che’s heart tightened. Since he had no idea how strong the monster that ambushed the Gluttony Monkey was, he didn’t dare to get personally involved for safety concerns. Instead, he ordered the Purple Jade Condor in the sky to dive down and check out the situation ahead.

Judging from how the frisky monkey was screaming non-stop, it seemed to have suffered quite an injury. The Fiery Scorpion and Wind Shadow Wolf were probably unable to do a thing to that unknown exotic beast, either.

After receiving Zhang Che’s command, the Purple Jade Condor quickly dove down from several hundred meters in the sky to provide reinforcements for the Gluttony Monkey.

However, the frisky monkey suddenly let out another shriek while jumping on one leg and fell on the ground, now grabbing both his legs, rolling about.

Zhang Che was feeling stumped now. Exactly what kind of injury was it that made the frisky monkey act this way, making such exaggerated screams?

He really wanted to go forward to take a look, but he was fearful of that unknown exotic beast’s mysterious attack, and chose to stand still in the end.

The Purple Jade Condor finally flew down from the sky. It spread its wings open and streaked past the bushes, but it didn’t discover where that strange exotic beast was. Helpless about it, Zhang Che could only order it to rescue the frisky monkey first.

Otherwise, who knew if that glutton’s continuous cries would attract any other powerful exotic beasts here?

They were in a dangerous area, after all. Zhang Che didn’t wish to experience being mobbed by a group of powerful beasts.

-Ai, it would’ve been great if I advanced to Tier Four. The Scarlet Flame Drake could just burn everything in its path. No matter what kind of beast it was, it had to show itself before us.

-Speaking of which, it was strange that the Gluttony Monkey’s screams stopped the instant the Purple Jade Condor flew down. Perhaps even that glutton knew that he was about to be saved and forgot all about the pain from its relief?-

The Purple Jade Condor streaked over the Gluttony Monkey like a bolt of lightning, swooping the rolling monkey off the ground with its huge talons. After which, it made a beautiful sharp turn in the air, like cars drifting a sharp turn, and flew back towards Zhang Che’s direction.

“Oh shit, watch out!” Zhang Che cried out loud to warn the others just as the Purple Jade Condor was changing its direction, Zhang Che suddenly noticed a black silhouette rise into the air, lashing towards the low-flying Purple Jade Condor like a whip.

However, it looked as if the Purple Jade Condor was anticipating that spooky attack from the start. Its huge figure made a sudden twist in the air, easily dodging the whip’s lash. After which, it activated its Wing Blade skill. Its wings glowed coldly, diving at the attacker.

The long whip couldn’t retract in time, and was cut apart by the Purple Jade Condor’s left wing, sliced in two from the middle. Half of it flew aimlessly high in the air and fell in the direction it was lashing out in, which was in Zhang Che’s direction. Meanwhile, the other half quickly retracted back into the thick bushes.

As that several meters-long object flew in his direction, Zhang Che finally got a good look before it turned into a streak of light and disappeared. Wasn’t it the purplish-brown tentacle-like thing he saw earlier?

-What kind of exotic beast has such a strange tentacle?-

Regrettably, Zhang Che’s ‘data eyes’ were unable to discern the exotic beast’s attributes from the torn tentacle. He could only stomach his doubts and wait for the Purple Jade Condor to solve the mystery for him.

After slicing off that mysterious exotic beast’s tentacle, the Purple Jade Condor didn’t follow up with another attack immediately. Instead, it flew back to Zhang Che’s side with the Gluttony Monkey in tow and dropped off that injured pet before drawing another arc in the air, flying back to the bushes.

The Wing Blade skill could last for an entire minute; the Purple Jade Condor had more than enough time to force that unknown exotic beast out, or even slay it in the bushes.

The Wing Blade skill’s destructive power was extraordinary, indeed. Branches and leaves flew about, and mud was thrown in the air in all directions. The Purple Jade Condor was akin to a super plowing machine, razing the area flat.

==[You Killed a Rotten Ent Prowler. Obtained 12 Points of Soul Force. Obtained Rotten Ent Prowler Card.]==

Zhang Che heard the long-awaited mechanical notification sound when the entire area was overturned by the Purple Jade Condor. The unknown exotic beast was finally killed by the terrifying Purple Jade Condor.

“So it’s called a Rotten Ent Prowler? No wonder it has such outstanding hiding ability, and the frisky monkey and Purple Jade Condor were unable to discern its position!” Zhang Che realized. This mysterious exotic beast really lived up to its name as a prowler. It truly was like an assassin, catching others off guard!

In the next moment, the Purple Jade Condor picked up a silvery beast card from the soil with its beak, quickly returning to Zhang Che’s side.

=========

“Hah, it’s actually a weapon-type beast card. Its attribute looks pretty good!”

Zhang Che didn’t expect to obtain another weapon-type beast card so soon. It seemed like today was a lucky day for him!

-Though, what kind of a weapon would this thing turn out to be?- A guess came up to Zhang Che’s mind. He immediately held the Rotten Ent Prowler card between his palms, triggering a spiritual resonance. After branding it with his spiritual imprint, Zhang Che immediately summoned the weapon.

As expected, what appeared in his hand was a long brown whip, several meters in length. It had sharp, tiny barbs all over it, giving off the feeling of a whip used for torture during ancient times.

“Its innate attribute states that it extends at will. Let’s see how effective it is.”

With a thought, the long whip twisted for a moment, and condensed into a barbed thick club. It was about half a meter long in this form, and as thick as an adult’s calf. The barbs were heavily concentrated, like the hairs on an insect, enough to strike fear into those who saw them.

Next, he experimented with its extendibility. The club quickly shot forward, instantly turning into a rope a few dozen meters long. The gaps between barbs were wider, but it looked rather concentrated now.

-What should this be used for..?-

A vision of a female human figure dressed in revealing leather clothes and killer heels instantly appeared in his mind, wielding a pitch black leather whip…

-What the hell!- Zhang Che hurriedly shook his head. He then recalled that the barbs on this whip-like weapon contained deadly poison!

Now, it was stated in his attributes that the Gluttony Monkey was weak against poison attacks. Why wasn’t he showing any signs of being in a poisoned state right now?

Zhang Che’s doubtful gaze fell onto the injured frisky monkey’s soles. He discovered to his astonishment that this fellow’s soles were filled with concentrated tiny holes, and purplish-brown poisoned blood was flowing out at this moment. Its color was rapidly turning red.

-Since when did this glutton turn into a martial arts expert and learned how to purge poison from within his body with internal strength?- Zhang Che was filled with questions. Then, he suddenly recalled that the frisky monkey stopped screaming at the time the Purple Jade Condor swooped down from the sky.

He had originally thought that this fellow realized he was about to be saved and thus endured the pain. From the looks of it now, that wasn’t the case.

Right, the Purple Jade Condor’s Halo!
