Chapter 125: The Forest Race’s Contempt

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Mei Changge gazed upon the gathering place of the Forest race with an expression of astonishment.

He did not expect it to be built into a city similar to a valley.

Not only could he see the Forest race’s gathering place but he could also sense the location of Xu Chu and Song Yubai. At that moment, the two of them were hiding in the forest with their soldiers.

Mei Changge led Ye Yan and Wan Chuan down.

“Who’s there?”

Xu Chu’s face was filled with vigilance, but when he saw that it was Mei Changge, his face revealed a respectful expression.

“My lord!”

Song Yubai and Xu Chu said respectfully.

Mei Changge nodded at the two of them and asked, “How many members of the Forest race are there?”

“My lord, we can’t say for certain, but we estimate there are approximately 80,000 of them.”

Xu Chu spoke with a serious demeanor. Despite luring and eliminating more than 10,000 of them alongside Song Yubai, the majority of the Forest race still remained to be addressed.

However, Song Yubai had also investigated slightly. There were about 80,000 members left in the entire Forest race. After all, the two of them could not enter the Forest race to investigate specifically and could only estimate.

Moreover, from the moment Xu Chu and Song Yubai lured them to kill, the Forest race started to be vigilant.

“80,000?”

Mei Changge nodded in acknowledgment. This number was still manageable for him. Xu Chu and Song Yubai had each brought 10,000 soldiers, and despite many of them sustaining injuries, they had received treatment.

Mei Changge had long asked Guo Jia to provide them with the Moon Well water and the Myriad Lotus Coins. This also reduced the losses of the soldiers to nearly zero.

The main reason was that none of them was killed.

“Which one of you wants to be the vanguard?”

Mei Changge looked at the two of them and asked with a smile.

“My lord, it would be my honor!”

When the two of them heard Mei Changge’s words, they took a step forward with serious expressions.

Despite having confronted numerous members of the Forest race over the past few days, Xu Chu and Song Yubai still hungered for more action. Therefore, when Mei Changge inquired which of them was willing to lead as the vanguard, neither of them was willing to step aside.

“Yubai, you’ll be the vanguard this time.”

Mei Changge looked at their serious expressions and said to Song Yubai.

“Yes, my lord!”

Song Yubai was overjoyed and replied respectfully.

“As for Zhong Kang, are you confident in holding back the Transcendents?”

Mei Changge said solemnly. After all, there were about 10 Transcendents in the Forest race. He needed Xu Chu and the others to hold back one or two Transcendents so that he had a chance to deal with the others.

“Don’t worry, my lord. The Mystic Yang Formation is completely activated. It won’t be a problem to hold back one or two Transcendents.”

Xu Chu said firmly. His strength might still be far from that of a Transcendent, but with the support of 10,000 Mystic Yang soldiers, it was not a problem. However, Xu Chu did not know how long he could hold them back.

“In that case, Yubai, you’ll do it.”

Mei Changge nodded and looked back at Ye Yan.

“Boss, don’t worry. I can hold back at least three of them.”

Ye Yan said with a smile. His main task was to hold back the Transcendents. Of course, it was not impossible to deal with one or two of them.

While Mei Changge was about to let Song Yubai start attacking the Forest race…

Inside the palace situated atop the massive tree of the Forest race, a gathering of foreign races was engaged in a discussion.

“Recently, our Forest race has been disappearing. Everyone should have noticed, right?”

Shan said with a solemn expression.

“Patriarch, this is all because of Sen, right?”

The Second Elder’s eyes flickered as he asked.

He knew that Sen had gone to attack the human territory, but he did not expect him to suffer a crushing defeat and even lose 10 Giant War Trees.

It’s worth noting that the Giant War Trees were highly treasured by the Forest race. Losing even one of them would cause a lasting sense of distress. In the end, Sen brought out 10 of these trees. However, he not only gained nothing but also suffered the loss of all of them.

This made some elders of the Forest race uncomfortable.

“Second Elder, what are you trying to say?”

Shan stared at the Second Elder.

“The Giant War Trees are a treasure of our Forest race. Patriarch, I wonder what you have to say about losing 10 of them just like that.”

The Second Elder let out a chuckle, but his attention shifted from the mountain to Sen, who was positioned at the rear.

“You’re asking for an explanation from me?”

Shan smiled, before reaching out and clenching his fist.

A green vine slithered into the palace and tied up the Second Elder instantly.

“Are you satisfied with this explanation?”

Shan’s tone was stern as he asked coldly.

“Patriarch, the humans are here. The Second Elder only feels sorry for those Giant War Trees.”

The Sixth Elder walked forward and persuaded.

While the loss of 10 Giant War Trees had certainly been a painful blow, the Sixth Elder understood that the Mandrill race had now allied with Shan.

“Since the Sixth Elder has spoken, I’ll let the matter rest.”

“But, if Second Elder still wants an explanation, I don’t mind…”

Shan’s tone was cold. Then, he gently released his palm, and the vine silently withdrew.

“Phew.”

The Second Elder’s expression changed. He knew that Shan wanted to kill him.

“Sen.”

Shan looked at his son with a solemn expression.

“Father.”

Sen lowered his head, his face filled with hatred and unwillingness.

He was careless this time, causing him to lose 10 Giant War Trees. “A failure doesn’t mean anything, but I hope you can reflect on it.”

“Yes, Father.”

Sen had his head lowered, but his eyes were filled with unwillingness as if he had not heard Shan’s words.

“Patriarch! Patriarch!”

At that moment, a Forest race member ran in with a flustered expression.

“Speak.”

Shan asked calmly.

“The humans are here, and there seem to be many of them.”

That Forest race member who entered the palace recognized that all of them were elders of the Forest race. He couldn’t help but bow his head and speak. “I haven’t even gone searching for them, and yet they’ve come to me on their own.”

Shan was stunned. He did not expect the humans to be so bold as to attack their territory.

“Sixth Elder, Ninth Elder, go and take a look.”

Shan waved at the two of them before turning to Sen again.

“Sen, I’ve fought for a chance for you. Go to the back and meet Lord Kui Xing.”

“As for the others, wait here for me to return.”

Following Shan’s words, he rose from his seat and guided Sen to the rear of the palace. The Sixth Elder and the Ninth Elder followed the member who had delivered the report and exited as well.

“Lord Kui Xing?”

“The lord of the Mandrill race?”

The Second Elder’s eyes were solemn as he watched Shan and Sen leave.

He suddenly became aware that he appeared to be isolated from the others.

The expressions on the faces of the surrounding elders remained unchanged as if they were already aware of this development.

At the same time, Song Yubai led the Red Lotus soldiers and stared into the Forest race with battle intent on his face.

“Forest race, come out if you have the guts!”

Song Yubai’s voice carried a pure qi that reverberated like a sound wave.

Trees shook continuously as if they were a walking forest.

“Human! How dare you cause trouble to us, Forest race!”

A figure descended from the sky.

The Ninth Elder floated in the air with a high and mighty expression.

“Ye Yan, kill him!”

Mei Changge looked at the short figure in the sky and smiled.

“Boss, leave this to me.”

Ye Yan’s eyes lit up. He soared into the sky, his fiery red robe blazing.

When he saw the first Transcendent of a foreign race, Ye Yan could not help but feel his hands itching.

“Kill !

When Song Yubai heard Mei Changge’s voice, he immediately rushed forward with the Red Lotus soldiers.

He had not even activated the Red Prison Array.

He understood that his lord had a plan, and his own objective was to engage in a ruthless slaughter of the Forest race.

“How dare you!”

Upon witnessing this spectacle, the Ninth Elder seethed with anger. He extended his palm, and the surrounding trees appeared to come to life, thrashing wildly as if they intended to annihilate Song Yubai and his companions.

“I’m your opponent.”

Ye Yan smiled gently. Soon after, a beam of flame erupted on his chest and blasted at the Ninth Elder who was floating in midair.

“Hahaha, that’s right. Why waste your breath on a foreign race? Kill him!” Wan Chuan stood beside Mei Changge and could not help but smile.

“Kid, aren’t you going to attack? There’s another Transcendent.”

Wan Chuan reminded Mei Changge as he smiled.

Of course, Mei Changge also sensed the other Transcendent’s presence. “The Forest race is looking down on us. They only sent out two Transcendents.”

“Since I’ve already fought my way to their territory, I won’t stand on ceremony.”

After Mei Changge finished speaking, the spiritual energy in his body circulated and a bone spear appeared in his hand.

The bone spear was completely white as if it was made of white jade. The tip of the spear flickered with a cold light.

The bone spear had been crafted from the Spirit Bone Tower. While it was of medium-grade quality and ranked in the Yellow Rank, it was only just sufficient.

Mei Changge noticed the other Transcendent. He left an afterimage on the spot and charged at the Transcendent with the bone spear.

He thought that all the Transcendents of the Forest race would show up, but only two appeared.

He would take down the Transcendent to teach the Forest race a lesson for underestimating him.

Besides, after dealing with two Transcendents, it would be easier to deal with the rest.

In the sky, Ye Yan stopped the Ninth Elder from attacking Song Yubai and the soldiers.

Song Yubai did not pay attention to the Transcendent above him at all. Instead, he rushed into the Forest race’s territory with the Red Lotus soldiers.

On the bodies of every Red Lotus soldier, red pure qi circulated constantly as if it could link up at any time.

Song Yubai and his comrades appeared to have transformed into lumberjacks, wielding their bone spears to continually assault the Treants.

As the Forest race collapsed, they were met with a barrage of bone spears..
