"What?"

Chen was suddenly furious, "How dare Qi kill our sentinels? Does it not know that the evil ghosts here are ours?"

Yue bitterly smiled. "How could Qi not know? Boss Chen, I'm afraid it's precisely because they know that they deliberately did this."

"Outrageous! I must confront them about this."

Chen was extremely irate.

"Where is it now?"

Yue replied: "Boss Chen, Qi is currently heading toward Death Valley, located east of the ruins."

At this time, Xiao Mu and his group were deliberately leading Qi towards Death Valley. How could Yue not know?

"Alright, I'll go there immediately."

Upon receiving the news, Chen quickly made a decision.

Once again, Yue suggested, "Boss Chen, Qi has been acting aggressively, and I fear that their aim is not pure. Just to be safe, I suggest you ambushing them at the exit of Death Valley; it's the only path for them."

"Once they arrive, Boss, you can confront them there, trapping them within the valley."

"In doing so, boss, you'll have the advantage of controlling the terrain."

"Having this advantage, regardless of their underlying intentions, will be to our benefit."

"A good suggestion, I will definitely consider it!"

Chen was elated.

In his eyes, Yue's suggestion was highly practical.

He was intimately familiar with the topography of Death Valley, and by blocking the entrance, not only could they wait for Qi's arrival at a leisurely pace but also take the high ground, gaining a significant advantage.

Before long, Xiao Mu sent information informing Yue that Chen had already stationed his ghosts outside Death Valley, lying in wait for Qi.

Upon receiving the news, Yue immediately contacted Qi, "Boss Qi, I have some unfavorable news."

"Unfavorable news? Speak up!"

Qi was visibly anxious and quickly prodded.

"Are you on your way to Death Valley, Boss Qi?"

Yue directly asked.

"How did you know?"

Just as the words left his lips, Qi realized that his actions must have been leaked, thoroughly investigated by the Chihuo Ghost Clan, and he immediately flew into a rage, "How dare the Chihuo Ghost Clan spy on me!"

"But that's not all!"

Yue continued, "Boss Qi, according to reliable intelligence, not only has the Chihuo Ghost Clan thoroughly investigated your movements, but they have also specially sent people to ambush you just outside Death Valley."

"What? They dare?!"

Qi was enraged, his temper flaring up, "Are you certain?"

"Absolutely certain!"

Yue affirmed confidently.

"Chihuo Ghost Clan!"

Qi was infuriated to the point of grinding his teeth, the words 'Chihuo Ghost Clan' were practically squeezed out through clenched teeth.

He was currently pursuing Xiao Mu. Since Xiao Mu deliberately left a trail, he knew clearly that the group was heading to Death Valley.

Now, hearing that the Chihuo Ghost Clan was intentionally blocking his path through Death Valley was equivalent to saying they were directly impacting his pursuit and intent to kill Xiao Mu.

Pursuing and killing Xiao Mu was the most important matter for him. The fact that there was interference incited his wrath.

From the other side of the communicator, Yue could clearly sense Qi's anger. Thus, he once again brought up a suggestion, "Boss Qi, I have a proposal."

"Speak!"

Overcome with anger, Qi curtly ordered.

"Why not turn their plan against them, Boss?"

Yue deliberately proposed.

"What do you mean?"

After hearing this, Qi was momentarily hesitant. For a moment, he really couldn't comprehend what Yue was referring to when he proposed to turn their plan against them.

Yue gave a slight smile and continued, "Boss, as far as I know, the entrance to Death Valley isn't invulnerable; there is a small path beside it. By taking it, you can go around to the back of the valley."

"Since the Chihuo Ghost Clan is ambushing you at the valley's entrance with ill intentions, why not do as they planned? Go through Death Valley as you originally planned, lead your underlings along the main path of the Death Valley, while you sneak around from behind and launch a surprise attack on the Chihuo Ghost Clan members ambushing at the entrance."

"A surprise attack?"

Qi was momentarily stunned.

Yue's suggestion stirred his interest.

Yue continued, "Boss, remember, attack is the best defense. If the Chihuo Ghost Clan is ambushing you at the valley entrance with ill intentions, they must be planning to ambush you. If you do not act first, I'm afraid you'll fall into their trap instead."

"You're absolutely right."

Qi nodded, quickly agreed that Yue made sense.

"I will be vigilant. If the Chihuo Ghost Clan is actually ambushing at the valley entrance, I will act. Tell me exactly where this small path is."

"Affirmative."

Yue felt gratified, he told Qi the location of the small path, and urged him to be cautious to avoid falling into a trap set by the Chihuo Ghost Clan.

As for concerns about Qi and Chen fighting, he was not worried at all.

Evil ghosts were all creatures of cunning and malicious intent. When faced with threats, their first instinct was to eliminate their opponent.

Having listened to Yue's advice, although Qi remained skeptical, he still decided to remain on guard, leading his subordinates cautiously toward Death Valley.

After entering Death Valley, it didn't take long to reach the location of the small path that Yue had described. Qi ordered his underlings to proceed ahead as he veered off into the small path to carry out a rear attack.

At this point, Qi was still hoping against hope that Yue's information was incorrect and that the Chihuo Ghost Clan was not really ambushing him.

After all, they were currently at war with humans. It was not a good time for internal strife amongst the evil ghosts.

Otherwise, if this was taking place in the Nether Soil, suspicion on the intentions of the others would be enough to trigger a war without any concrete evidence.

After all, compared to humans, evil ghosts were far more sinister, almost entirely adhering to the law of the jungle.

At this moment in the Human World, Qi was far more cautious.

Following the small path, he moved forward.

Just as Yue had said, the path led directly to the rear of the valley entrance.

Upon reaching the rear of the entrance and taking a peek inside, Qi was close to exploding with rage.

Behind the entrance, there were indeed four evil ghosts hiding. Two were purple-black blood demons, two were red blood demons, and the leading purple-black blood demon was at the same realm as him, both at the peak level of the purple-black blood demon.

"Attack!"

Unable to hold back his rage, Qi rushed forward, targeting Chen, the leading purple-black blood demon.

Chen's ghosts were blocking the valley entrance, waiting for Qi's group to come. They never expected Qi to undertake a rear attack. As soon as they heard noise, Chen turned his head just in time to see Qi charging directly at him without provocation, which immediately made him furious.

Lei was right, the Dongye Ghost Clan decidedly had ill intentions and wanted to seize the Energy Fruit Tree. Otherwise, why would they attack right after laying eyes on him?

With this thought in mind, fury welled up inside him. Chen had no inclination to talk anymore. He roared, "Attack!"

Both claws stretched out simultaneously, launching an attack at Qi.

The other three blood demons, seeing that Chen had initiated an attack, did not hesitate to follow suit. They too stretched out their claws and engaged Qi in combat.

Seeing this scene, Qi's rage burned even brighter.

The Chihuo Ghost Clan didn't even bother to explain themselves. The moment they saw him, all four ghosts launched a joint attack.

Just as Yue had said, they definitely planned on ambushing him.

"Every one of you, come out and kill them!"

With a loud bellow, Qi resisted Chen's attack while simultaneously beckoning his ghosts to join in the combat.

The remaining ghosts, who moved at a similar pace as Qi, also arrived at the valley entrance by this time. Hearing Qi's loud calls, they jumped out from the lower part of the entrance, heading straight for the Chihuo Ghost Clan's ghosts.

In an instant, a fight broke out between the two sides, each side using their strongest means. The conflict was incredibly brutal.
