Chapter 453: Chapter 443: Hiring Security Guards Chapter 453: Chapter 443: Hiring Security Guards Liu Fei didn’t understand where Yi Zheng’s confidence ca from, but considering what Ying Zhao said today about Yi Zheng being a distinguished guest of The Queen Mother of the West, and seeing how he brought back four experts after just one stroll, she knew Rabbit must have his own plans. Such matters didn’t need her attention, as she only needed to manage the Sect’s affairs well.
Therefore, Liu Fei said, “Alright, I’ll go and deliver the ssage. According to the ti, it should be evening by now.”
Yi Zheng was astonished and said, “What do you an? If I’m not mistaken, it’s been dark for quite a while now, right?”
Liu Fei bitterly smiled and said, “I don’t know what happened, but it suddenly turned night in the middle of the day. The sun of Kunlun Mountain really has a mind of its own.”
Cold sweat stread down Yi Zheng’s forehead as he finally understood that The Queen Mother of the West’s star-shifting ability was truly a world-altering one!
He looked up sharply at the sky to see a dazzling Star River streaking across. He asked Immortal Kuhuang, “Has this Star River always been there?”
Immortal Kuhuang shook his head, “Previously there were only stars scattered all over, no dazzling Star River like this. Where did it co from?”
Su Gonghe and the others also shook their heads, “Yeah, we’ve never seen it. How did such a Star River suddenly appear…”
Yi Zheng smirked, and upon verifying the news of the Star River, he was once again shocked.
His understanding of The Queen Mother of the West’s strength was completely renewed.
And if The Queen Mother of the West’s power couldn’t kill or trap the Deceptive Beast… Yi Zheng imdiately dismissed the thought of taking the opportunity to kill the Deceptive Beast.
He would wait until he could craft a Star River with his bare hands.
Since it had just turned night, Yi Zheng simply told everyone to have dinner and then found a spacious spot to sleep soundly.
Immortal Kuhuang took up the night patrol work, with two chickens standing on top of a tall mound, their eyes wide open without moving, unsure if they were asleep or awake.
Ever since Su Gonghe saw Yi Zheng riding it back, Skeleton King and Zombie King waved at him, and he obediently went over to join the mount ranks.
Nothing happened overnight…
The sun rose on ti the next day, and after breakfast, Yi Zheng called out to the rabbits, “My little ones, follow to hire… *cough*… security guards!”
“Roar!” The crowd of rabbits shouted in unison.
With a wave of his hand, Skeleton King imdiately summoned the Fiery Fla Chariot with Zombie King, Suona Team, Tiger, Wild Boar, and Zi Xing slowly trotting to Yi Zheng’s side.
Without much thought, Yi Zheng jumped onto Zi Xing’s head and casually pointed, “Let’s go!”
Then eight skeleton horses cried out ‘Gag’ and slowly started to move.
Yi Zheng frowned, “What’s the matter? Didn’t they eat?”
Skeleton King sadly said, “Boss, the rules of this world are too strong, the restraints like gravity are too great, and besides, the chariot is overloaded.”
At that mont, the White Fox, Su Gonghe, taking quick, light steps, ran past them, casting a smug look at the eight skeleton horses that couldn’t run fast despite their desperate efforts.
Then it turned its gaze to those on the chariot – Skeleton King, Zombie King, Suona Team, Tiger, Wild Boar, Zi Xing, and itself, its eyes seemingly saying, “You guys aren’t much better!”
But it quickly realized that instead of getting angry, everyone on the chariot was eyeing it brightly with a peculiar gleam, not taking offense at its contempt.
Finally, it looked at Yi Zheng, who was also looking at it with sparking eyes!
The next mont, a large White Fox stood on its hind legs, its paws holding up an eight-horse Fiery Fla Skeleton Chariot, which was loaded with eight horses, a skeleton, a zombie, nine mbers of the Suona Team, a Tiger, a Wild Boar, a Big Rabbit, and a Little Rabbit.
Then, gritting its teeth, it took long strides and started sprinting across the grassland.
The excited Little Rabbit on top didn’t forget to yell, “Giddyup! Giddyup! Giddyup! Run faster, I want that electrifying thrill!”
The Big Rabbit, Wild Boar, Tiger, Skeleton, and Zombie below also echoed loudly, “Experience the speed, let’s run!”
The eight skeleton horses couldn’t speak nor did they make the sounds of war horses, rely opening their skeletal jaws and making a ‘gag gag gag’ noise.
The leader of the Suona Team shouted loudly, and for a ti, the gongs thundered and the suonas blared…
Down below, the Fox Demon Su Gonghe was crying tears of frustration, lanting in his heart, “Damn, they’re going to tire to death and then send off!”
Just then, Ying Zhao ca running, “Boss Rabbit, please wait, The Queen Mother of the West is looking for you!”
Yi Zheng’s heart skipped a beat, wondering what that girl wanted with him when he was about to go on a serious quest.
However, The Queen Mother of the West, being his strong backing, required him to indulge the young girl’s temper.
But he had already ford a team and was ready to go hunting…
Scratching his head, Yi Zheng looked down at Zi Xing beneath him, then took out a Token and handed it to Zi Xing, saying, “Zi Xing, I have a task for you. Take this token and recruit a captain for the security team! Rember, find the biggest one, the stronger the better! The stronger the better, got it?”
Zi Xing, upon hearing that such an important task was entrusted to him, was instantly thrilled, snatched the token and said, “Boss, you can count on ! I guarantee I’ll snag the most badass one for you!”
Yi Zheng believed that with the token in hand, these guys wouldn’t face any danger, so he said to Ying Zhao, “Let’s go.”
Ying Zhao grabbed Yi Zheng and soared into the sky, flying towards the West Kunlun Mountain Secret Realm.
On the ground, the Fox Demon lay flat, not daring to raise its head.
At that mont, it was finally convinced that Rabbit truly had a close relationship with The Queen Mother of the West. Otherwise, Ying Zhao, Kunlun’s great calamity, wouldn’t address Rabbit as a superior.
Su Gonghe’s heart was a mix of emotions, feeling on one hand that he had latched onto the right leg, yet also grieving over becoming a mount.
At this ti, Skeleton King said, “Zi Xing, you can get down now! We are Boss Rabbit’s exclusive mounts, and it doesn’t seem right for you to ride in his absence.”
Zi Xing wasn’t offended, as it was agreed upon by all to maintain Yi Zheng’s dignity.
Zi Xing hopped down and said, “Fellows, aren’t you coming with us hunting?”
Skeleton King shook his head, “I’ll stay here waiting for the boss; he might need the chariot at any mont.”
Zi Xing said, “Alright, you guys wait for the boss. I’ll take the brothers to recruit so security guards.”
Zi Xing wasn’t foolish either. He knew that with his own strength, he would definitely be chopped up by Mountain Demons and Wild Monsters and stir-fried with hot peppers. The token in his hand was the amulet.
So, he used the Body Character Technique to produce a long black bamboo pole and suspended the token on it. Then, holding the long pole aloft, he called out to the rabbit horde, “Brothers, let’s set off!”
“Roar!”
The rabbits roared in unison and set off following Zi Xing.
Zi Gong and Zi Lu caught up, and the three smartest of the rabbit horde had gathered.
They hadn’t run far when they heard the sound of battle cries from a distance.
They saw two tribes locked in fierce combat, fighting bitterly.
On the left side was the Zongdi Tribe, at a disadvantage, their iron-clad cans battered to the point of only helts remaining, blood at the corners of their mouths.
Their opponents were a group of people dressed in yellow robes. The leader’s attacks brought about whirlwinds of Yellow Wind that were soul-haunting and bone-chilling. Wherever it swept through, mbers of the Zongdi Tribe t their deaths on the spot.
“Sacrifice!”
Seeing the tide turn against them, Heng Kuan roared out loud.
Many mbers of the Zongdi Tribe slit their wrists on the spot, raised their blood-drenched palms high, and shouted, “I offer my life in sacrifice, begging the Guardian God Zongdi Barbarian Pig to protect our tribespeople!”
The next mont, their blood was drained, converging to form a Light Gate. Then, a massive Wild Boar, draped in Iron Armor, burst forth, bellowing, “Who dares to attack the servants of this god?!”
The man in the yellow robe, upon seeing this, decisively retreated, and with a wave of his hand, he commanded, “Sacrifice!”
Similarly, a group of n in yellow robes slit their wrists, spilling their blood as they cried out, “I offer my life in sacrifice, begging the Guardian God Yellow Wind God to protect our tribespeople!”
The blood turned into a Light Gate, and a yellow figure surged out. Then a whirlwind coalesced, shaping into a Sword Light that slashed towards the Zongdi Barbarian Pig!
With a thunderous boom, the Zongdi Barbarian Pig was violently hurled away. In the flash of the Sword Light, its Iron Armor was sheared to pieces, and it looked as if the pig’s head was in jeopardy!
Just then, the Yellow Wind God noticed that many pairs of glittering eyes were staring at him intently from the sidelines.
He stopped his movents instinctively.
It was only then that his true form beca visible. He was not short, standing two ters tall, covered in yellow fur, with long claws, and narrow eyes, looking like a fierce character.
He frowned and looked around, only to see a large horde of rabbits that had arrived unnoticed. So were squatting, others standing, so tiptoeing, and so were even riding atop other rabbits, all stacked up like Arhats watching a horse monkey show, eyes fixed on him.
And there were rabbits appraising him…
“This guy, all yellow and furry, is pretty ugly.”
“Ugly doesn’t matter if he’s strong.”
“He’s stronger than that pig!”
“That pig looks quite tasty.”
“This one doesn’t look bad either, look at his ribs…”
“But plucking the fur is such a hassle…”
…
The Yellow Wind God flew into a rage, “Are you lot TM picking out pork?”
He was the Yellow Wind God, the deity of eight tribes. When had he ever been insulted like this? Instantly furious, he raised his claws, ready to strike.
But then, he saw the leading rabbit carrying a bamboo pole with a shiny Token suspended from it.
A single glance sent shivers down his spine, all the fur on his body standing on end.
The Yellow Wind God swallowed hard, “This…”
Zi Xing said, “This was given to us by the Queen Mother of the West, who told us to hire a few security guards to ensure our safety. I think you’re not bad, so I’ll pick you first. No problems, right?”
The Yellow Wind God took one look at the Token. Could he TM even refuse?
Zi Xing, taking the initiative, patted the Yellow Wind God’s head and said, “No objections ans you agree. Welco to the Confucian Sect security team!”
The Yellow Wind God narrowed his eyes, roaring inwardly, “Are you TM patting a dog?”
Though enraged, he dared not lash out. The Yellow Wind God’s face was etched with frustration and gloom. He, the guardian deity of eight tribes, had just been recruited as a security guard?
Also, what on earth was the Confucian Sect?
And what exactly was a security guard?
What in the world was he considered now?
Baffled!
And he couldn’t even refuse!
After recruiting the Yellow Wind God, Zi Xing looked back at the Zongdi Barbarian Pig and said, “This one… not very useful, huh? Let’s chop it up!”
The Zongdi Barbarian Pig panicked imdiately and shouted, “Who says I’m useless? I’m useful!”
Then, in front of the Zongdi Barbarian Pig, three rabbits with no good intentions started to size him up, “Okay, start showing your talent. At the mont, I think, besides serving as army provisions, you have no use.”
