The vines in the old lady’s hands were very thick, green and flowery, looking extremely sturdy. However, after secretly crushing a small section of the vines using the Wizard Power he sent out and understanding that these vines posed no threat to him, Yang Ling decided to take advantage of the situation and allowed the other party to tie him up tightly.
After dragging Yang Ling to a small room full of firewood, looking at the thick vines wrapped around him, the old lady nodded with satisfaction, turning around to instruct the young lady behind her,
Lucy, inform everyone in the tribe, we will take action tomorrow the instant it gets dark. Tell them to make their preparations early if they do not wish to die here!


But, granny, then Mister Yuri, he…
Looking at the helpless, poisoned Yang Ling, who had been tightly tied up, Lucy’s face turned a little red as if she felt a little guilty. It also seemed as though she had a different opinion on whatever the old woman was doing.
Looking at the silent Yang Ling, as if he was in despair, then looking at her kind granddaughter, the old lady let out a cold laugh,
If we do not hand him over, what are we going to do tomorrow when the Groundhogs come and ask for someone? They killed several dozen people three years ago when we were just a little late. If we do not hand over anyone this time, the situation would not be as simple as letting them kill a few dozen people!

The old lady spoke as she forcefully pulled the kind-hearted Lucy out of the room, instructing her to spread the message so that the members of the clan could make preparations to leave the Ural Mountain Range. She then got busy. Even though she was not fast, her actions were orderly. She tossed away anything that was not of importance, only packing a small, light bag. She even tossed away most of the ancient relics left behind by her ancestors. She was determined and decisive, living up to her reputation as a scheming old witch!


The old lady was busy, while Yang Ling closed his eyes to rest.
Just what level has the Groundhog King on Mount Gya advanced to?
After understanding the misfortune that the old lady’s tribe faced, Yang Ling was extremely puzzled. He could understand why the Groundhogs would want young, physically capable men who were hunters as they could be made into laborers. However, it was hard to explain why they would even want young boys who have not come of age or old men in their seventies or eighties. At that moment, Yang Ling could not understand the motive of the Groundhog King, no matter how hard he thought about it.
After toiling for most of the night, the ladies in the valley went to sleep, conserving their energy in preparation for their escape tomorrow. However, while it was deep into the night, the light sounds of footsteps came from outside the little room. Soon after, the young lady Lucy gingerly walked in.

Mister Yuri, Mister Yuri…
After softly waking Yang Ling, who was pretending to be in a deep slumber, the young lady took out a bottle of clear liquid from within her robes,
This is the antidote, you will regain your strength after you drink a few drops of this. I’ll help you slice open these thick vines!

A beautiful and kind young lady!
Seeing the antidote in Lucy’s hands, looking at her large bright eyes, Yang Ling was very surprised. Even though he knew that this young lady was kind and disagreed with her grandmother’s method of doing things, but he did not expect that she would sneak into the room in the middle of the night to save him.

What are you all going to do when I escape, how will you deal with the terrifying Groundhogs?
Yang Ling smiled as he looked at the kind-hearted Lucy.
The poison created by the old lady was unique and could render one helpless in an instan. However after completing sufficient preparations beforehand, Yang Ling had long disabled the poison. The antidote in the hands of the young lady might be precious in the eyes of someone else, but it no longer had any meaning to him. As for the vines around him that were about the thickness of a thumb, those posed even less of a threat.

This… I…



With Yang Ling’s reminded, Lucy immediately thought about the situation her tribe was in. She turned pale, not knowing how to answer at that moment. She did not wish for Yang Ling to be captured by the Groundhogs because of her grandmother. However, she also did not want the dissatisfied Groundhogs to unleash a massacre, freely killing the little tribespeople she had left.

How about this, place the antidote in my robes. You do not need to care about the vines around me. I’ll think of a way myself when I reach the nest of the Groundhogs!
Looking at Lucy, who was being put in a spot, Yang Ling let out a faint smile. If he were to consume the antidote and free himself of the thick vines, how was he going to continue the act and take advantage of the situation?

Lucy, what are you doing being up so late at night?

Just as the young lady was at a loss of what to do, the sinister voice of the old lady spread into the room. In her fluster, Lucy quickly stuffed the antidote into Yang Ling’s pocket, then kept her sharp dagger,
Granny, the weather in the mountains is very cold. I was bringing Mister Yuri a few pieces of warm bread.


Hehe, it’s good that he eats his fill before he dies!
After walking into the room with her walking stick, seeing Lucy stuff Yang Ling’s mouth with dark bread, the old lady let out a sinister smile. She glanced a few times at Yang Ling’s bulging pocket as if noticing that it contained the bottle of antidote, or as if she had not discovered anything at all. After Yang Ling swallowed the dry, dark bread, she instructed the young lady to get out of the room before locking the room up.
What a kind young lady!
After swallowing the lukewarm dark bread, thinking back to Lucy’s sweet smile and large dark eyes, Yang Ling could not help but think about Alice, who was tens of thousands of miles away. He remembered how comfortable he had been with Alice serving him back then when he was still trying to build Wissen Town up.
The night passed quickly!
Perhaps it was because she was busy with preparing her escape, perhaps she was closely monitored by the old lady, the young lady Lucy did not show up once again. It was only at noon after waves of deafening shrieks were heard when the old lady led a few tall ladies into the room.

Hurry and hand him over to the Groundhogs, then seize the time to complete your preparations. We charge out along the stream when the sky gets dark.
The old lady had a sunken expression, the right hand she grabbed her walking stick with trembling lightly, as if she was extremely nervous,
Remember, consume the antidote before we set off at night. Anyone who dies to the lethal poison can only blame her luck!




Yes, madam!
The ladies by her side spoke as they pulled Yang Ling forcefully out of the room, quickly taking him to the exit of the valley.
On an average day, there was not a single Groundhog near the vicinity of the valley, but today, there was a large horde of them. Some of them were completely red. Some had large ears, and some were as still as a statue. All of them had abilities at least at the level four Magical Beast. The most surprising of them all was a mutated giant Groundhog in the middle of the horde. It was lying on the ground as if it was a thousand-year-old ancient turtle.
The ladies retreated quickly after tossing Yang Ling onto the ground. Soon, a few Groundhogs with large ears pounced forward like the wind, surrounding Yang Ling as they chattered, turning around him a few times before biting down on his clothes and dragging him onto the back of the giant Groundhog. Following the order of the creature leading the pack, the giant Groundhog turned to leave under the protection of the other Groundhogs, moving faster and faster, as if it were riding on clouds!
It is not a bad idea to tame a few of these giant Groundhogs and get them to pull carriages!
Going with the flow and lying on the back of the giant Groundhog, seeing the scenery flashing past his eyes, Yang Ling thought about a few benefits of taming a few of these mutated giant creatures. Even though its speed cannot be compared to the Unicorn, it was more stable and were decent candidates as carriage-pullers. He had seen many horse-pulled carriages ever since he came to the Tailun Continent, but he had never seen a carriage pulled by a rodent. He would be able to attract the attention of others if he made something like that!
The giant Groundhog was fast, quickly approaching the towering Mount Gya. Along the way, they encountered more and more Groundhogs and even a few mountain valleys that looked like paradise on Earth. Through his powerful Divine Knowledge, Yang Ling realized that most of the people inside were women. It seems like they share a similar fate with the old lady’s tribe.
Just what kind of creature was the Groundhog King, why would it send a bunch of rodents to snatch over the men of this many tribes?
Four hours later, the perplexed Yang Ling had arrived at Mount Gya for free on a rodent cab. From far away, the mountain looked as though it was lush with greenery. However, at close distance, Yang Ling realized that the mountain was covered in giant holes, with countless Groundhogs digging in and out in groups. Using his powerful Divine Knowledge, he realized that almost all of the holes were interconnected, spreading far and wide like a spider’s web. It also meant that the entire mountain was dug hollow, forming a giant nest!

Tsk tsk, powerful!

After entering the interior of the mountain while sitting on the back of the giant Groundhog, looking at the maze-like cave, Yang Ling shook his head in disbelief. Even though he was mentally prepared, he did not expect the lair of these Groundhogs to be this magnificent. It looks like Groundhogs indeed naturally know how to dig their way around!


Chitter…
After sprinting at high speeds within the mountain for about an hour, the giant Groundhog stopped within a wide plaza. Under the instructions of a few Groundhogs with red bodies, Yang Ling followed them as he walked straight ahead. After making his way around a few strange, giant stone statues, he saw a startling scene, almost causing his eyes to fall out of his sockets.
Behind a giant stone statue was a pond that was equipped with a fountain. Waves of heat brushed past his face. It seems as though this was a rarely found hot spring. A giant hot spring appearing within the interior of the mountain was already a rare sight. However, what was even more shocking was that a giant crystal bed was placed within the hot spring. A lady dressed in a thin pink veil laid lazily on the bed, panting gently. A few topless muscular men made their way around her, some of them giving her a massage, some rubbing her little hands, some stroking her thigh gently…
A few giant rodents with gold bodies crawled around the large crystal bed. Whenever the beautiful lady grunted with dissatisfaction, the giant rodents would pounce forward like the wind in unison, dragging the man she was not happy with out of the room and getting a new person in. Yang Ling could sense a majestic ripple of energy coming from the panting lady, along with a unique aura given off by the Groundhogs. If his guess was right, this should be the Groundhog King that had taken on a human form, the ultimate champion who could command the millions of Groundhogs within the Ural Mountain Range!
Her body was covered with a thin veil. Under her slender neck, her fair breasts were faintly visible, being half-covered; Her slender, proportionate feet peeked out of the veil, her feet tiny and exquisite. Her nails were painted with a layer of red nail polish, making them incredibly striking. Her pair of large eyes had a flirtatious gleam, and her sexy red lips opened slightly… Every action she made gave off a fatal allure, stringing along the nerves of the topless men, tempting them with their most primal desires!
Flirtatious, wanton, madness!
Through the foggy mist, looking at the flirtatious beauty not far away, Yang Ling shook his head in disbelief. He would never have expected the Groundhog King to look like this no matter how hard he tried. He would never have expected the other party to be a beautiful lady who was flirtatious to such an extreme!
