Chapter 1279: Regret? Too Late!

The night passed quickly.

When the morning sunlight shone into the cave, Chu Liuyue opened her eyes.

After a night of recovery, her body had basically recovered to its best state.

She stood up and stretched. She could clearly feel that her body was much stronger than before as the dense force circulated through her bones and limbs even more smoothly!

This is… the feeling of being stronger! Chu Liuyue smiled and was in a very good mood. I wonder how it’ll feel when I become a stage-nine warrior again… 

A soft sound came from the side.

Chu Liuyue turned around and saw that Tao Tao was already awake.

The latter was looking at her with wide eyes as it lay on the floor. It was wrapped tightly, looking like a large circular pudding.

Chu Liuyue winked at it.

Tao Tao instantly acted as if it was caught red-handed and hurriedly shut its eyes in guilt.

Chu Liuyue almost burst out laughing.

At this point, Ah Qiong had already woken up. It nudged against Tao Tao’s forehead in a doting and helpless manner.

“Ah Qiong, Tao Tao, I’ll go out for a while,” said Chu Liuyue.

Ah Qiong looked up, and Tao Tao opened one eye. It was a pity that its eye was as big as a lantern. Even though it had already tried hard to squint, it was still very obvious.

Chu Liuyue could only pretend that she didn’t see it as she explained to Ah Qiong. “I didn’t have the time to tell you earlier, but I came in because I did something wrong. This is my punishment for a month. Since I’m here, it’s not good for me to stay here all the time. I have to go out, right?”

Actually, Ah Qiong didn’t agree to it and looked worried.

After the battle that night, Chu Liuyue had entered a strange balance with those fiends in Fiend Park. If she went over there now, it was still slightly dangerous for her.

Ah Qiong stood up and seemed to want to go with her.

Chu Liuyue shook her head. “Ah Qiong, I can just go on my own. Stay here and take good care of Tao Tao. After I’m done patrolling, I’ll come back.”

Seeing that it was still worried, Chu Liuyue raised her Chi Xiao Sword, smiled, and said, “They couldn’t do anything to me yesterday, and they definitely can’t today.”

Seeing the Chi Xiao Sword, Ah Qiong instinctively took half a step back and seemed rather fearful. It then relaxed and nodded toward Chu Liuyue.

Chu Liuyue put away the Chi Xiao Sword and walked outside.

…

Fiend Park was huge, and it had many mountains and peaks.

The forest was lush with greenery, and the leaves rustled as the light breeze came by. It was in the morning, and the white mist around the middle of the mountain hadn’t disappeared as it swayed with the wind.

Chu Liuyue took a deep breath in, and the slightly cold air was rejuvenating, causing her entire person to feel much more refreshed.

She looked over and surveyed the surroundings. Following that, she asked in her heart, “Where’s the black-gold werewolf’s cave?”

The legendary three-eyed eagle’s voice sounded. “Behind three mountains in the southeastern direction.”

Chu Liuyue went in the direction it stated and saw a mountain peak sticking out. She stood on her toes and immediately jumped in the air, flying in that direction!

The legendary three-eyed eagle finally couldn’t help but ask, “What are you going there for?”

Before Chu Liuyue rested yesterday, she specially asked if it could find a fiend’s position through its respective aura. After it gave an affirmative reply, Chu Liuyue didn’t speak further. In the end, she wanted to go over right in the morning.

“There’s only one black-gold werewolf in the entire Fiend Park, and you killed it yesterday. Why are you going to the cave?”

Chu Liuyue’s thin lips curled up slightly. “The black-gold werewolf is a legendary fiend, so there are many valuable items in the cave. If I don’t go and take them, won’t it benefit others?”

Of course, in Fiend Park, it would benefit other fiends.

The legendary three-eyed eagle couldn’t rebut this reason and sensibly shut its mouth.

…

After Chu Liuyue broke through to become a stage-eight warrior, her speed almost improved two-fold. This allowed her to reach the peak where the black-gold werewolf’s cave was located in 15 minutes.

Standing in mid-air, she saw the cave in the middle of the mountain at first glance.

Compared to Ah Qiong’s cave, this was around 1.5 times the size of it. But as a black-gold werewolf with top skills and cultivation level here, Chu Liuyue could think with her toes to know that there had to be quite a few good items here!

But just when she was about to go over, she suddenly heard the legendary three-eyed eagle whisper, “Wait! There is another fiend around!”

Chu Liuyue squinted her eyes and suddenly laughed. “It seems like I’m not the only one eyeing the treasures…”

She crossed her arms and stared forward lazily. In a seemingly smiling manner, she muttered, “Can you figure out what fiend it is?”

The legendary three-eyed eagle paused. “Silver-eared flower-pattern fiend. It’s also a legendary fiend, and it is very cunning. Yet, it’s cowardly and scared of trouble. Normally, it likes to pilfer. It doesn’t have a good reputation among legendary fiends, and it is much weaker compared to the black-gold werewolf.”

“Hah, I think it’s very brave to dare to take my things,” Chu Liuyue said slowly.

In Fiend Park, there was an unspoken role: When one party was killed by another, everything that belonged to the deceased party—including its territory—would belong to the killer.

Chu Liuyue had killed the black-gold werewolf the day before, so everything in the cave should belong to her. Besides, she had done it in front of many fiends.

The news should’ve spread far and wide here. All fiends would know about this.

This was also the reason why she didn’t immediately rush over after the matter ended yesterday.

“It seems like this place has gotten more chaotic these few years…” Chu Liuyue pushed her loose strands of hair behind her ear and smiled slightly as she spoke. If it were in the past, everyone would obey the rules. Why would they do such a thing? 

“What do you plan to do?” asked the legendary three-eyed eagle. For some reason, it vaguely detected unclear impulsiveness in Chu Liuyue’s words.

It was as if she had made up her mind about something.

Chu Liuyue lazily smiled and said, “What else can I do? Of course, I need to teach them to obey the rules.”

At this point, a figure came out from the cave.

The fiend looked like a lion and a tiger, with pointy silver ears and a body that was adorned by flower-shaped patterns. It was biting something in its mouth as it stuck its head out to survey its surroundings, planning to leave rapidly.

“How many trips have you made?” A clear and nonchalant voice sounded.

The silver-eared flower-pattern fiend was instantly taken aback and hurriedly looked up. When it saw that the person was Chu Liuyue, it was so stunned that it moved a few steps back.

Chu Liuyue tilted her head, and her gaze swept across the thing it was biting—it was a fist-sized black-gold rock, and it reflected a faint light under the sun.

Black-gold crystal—this was a treasure that could only be found in places where black-gold werewolves lived. It was very hard and contained a rich amount of force. It was also very precious.

The silver-eared flower-pattern fiend only hesitated for a moment before it spat out the black-gold crystal in its mouth.

Chu Liuyue squinted her eyes and laughed. “Isn’t it too late to regret now?”
