Stop!

When the near-dead Hoof Shadow was about to be taken away by the group of disgusting people who played with venomous insects, a gloomy shout suddenly came from above the ancient tomb.
In shock, the group looked up at the same time.
There was an unfamiliar young man standing atop the ancient tomb. He was looking down at them.
There was a black zombie and a gray zombie with terrifying appearances standing beside him. The young man could see all of them from where they stood, and he did so with gritted teeth.


It was the first time he saw players who used such methods. The usage of venomous insects, centipedes and snakes was so disgusting that even Little North, who partied with dead people, could not quite accept what he saw. It was especially so when he noticed that the group had used those disgusting creatures to kill the animal he wanted to have the most—Hoof Shadow!
Once he released a messenger pigeon, Little North could not help but roar in anger in an attempt to stop the group from taking away the Hoof Shadow. He simply could not accept the handsome horse being taken away by such despicable people regardless of whether he looked at the matter from the point of view of his party or his own personal reasons.

Who are you?

A man with a hook nose walked out from the group with a mighty presence. He cast Little North a cold glare before he looked at the two zombies beside him. A brief flash of remembrance rose swiftly in his eyes before it disappeared.

It’s none of your business who I am!

No matter what, Little North was a person with a high-tier body fortification technique. He also had a Mystical Realm zombie with him, so he had become very confident in himself. Even though he felt a little uncomfortable with the idea of going up against a group of mysterious players who toyed with venomous insects, he was not afraid.
At that moment, the man with the hook nose who seemed to be the leader of the group seemed to have recognized Little North. His gaze darkened, and he quickly gave an order to his companions around him.

Ignore him, take away the Hoof Shadow and go!


How presumptuous!

When he saw the group of people going to the Hoof Shadow once they got out their weapons, Little North flew into a rage and jumped down from the top of the ancient tomb. His Mystical Realm zombie attacked first like a heavy missile. With a loud bang, it shot into the crowd, and its astonishing momentum forced the people to temporarily move back to avoid its charge.


At the same time, a faint purple barrier of light swiftly appeared around Little North. He activated Illusory Spirit Body.
The Mystical Realm zombie puppet acted like a door god with Little North. They stood to the left and right in front of the Hoof Shadow and blocked the group, effectively protecting Hoof Shadow behind them.
This action made the players absolutely livid.
With cold and dark gazes, they raised their scimitars, which were in the shape of a crescent moon and covered in a faint layer of black light. Clearly, they had poured their qi into their weapons, and the atmosphere instantly grew so tense that everyone were ready to jump at each other’s throats. The conflict would erupt from the smallest spark!
If the hook-nosed man had not warned everyone not to act rashly in a low growl, the group would have been unable to hold itself back and killed the blundering fool who suddenly appeared and destroyed their hunting plan.

What’s the meaning of this? Don’t go thinking that you can do whatever you like just because there is someone supporting you!

The hook-nosed man’s face turned even darker! He was shocked by Little North’s sudden appearance, and he wondered whether his other companions from Fox Cave were also nearby. While he shouted his questions, he looked around in search for the other members of Little North’s party. He did not dare to attack rashly.
Corpse Controller Little North was ranked at the 53rd place on the Famous People Rank because he had two terrifying and unique zombie puppets as his lackeys, because he followed Happy around and killed quite a number of famous players, and also because he had recently went up against someone who seemed to be Dongfang Bubai’s successor. As of then, he was very famous and easy to recognize.
In truth, Little North was also caught in a rather awkward situation.
If ignoring the fact that he could not accept the way they dealt with Hoof Shadow, his actions looked very similar to those of certain unreasonable people who would killsteal others for loot. Even though he had not taken the last step, his actions already implied that he wanted to killsteal them.


Hence, when he heard the hook-nosed man’s righteous accusations, Little North’s face turned red, and the aura of the two zombie puppets beside him (the Blessed Realm zombie had joined later) wilted a little. They were no longer as domineering as before.

Um…

However, Little North was not an obstinate idiot. He had also showed great spontaneity when he ambushed Happy in the mass grave in the past. He could randomly fish out a reason to get himself out of trouble.
That was why he did not feel so terribly embarrassed and regretful that he would want to die because of that question. A thought struck his head, and he immediately became confident.
What’s the deal with those venomous insects just now?

The group was rendered speechless. After a short period of being dumbfounded, however, everyone felt so angry that they wanted to vomit blood!
‘You jumped down in such a grand manner to stop us from killing the Hoof Shadow just for this? Bro, do you have a few screws loose in your head? Do you actually think we’re three-year-olds?’
The hook-nosed man’s face turned even darker. There were even a few moments when he nearly could not stop himself from releasing his black widow. But when he remembered that there was a person that even his hall master had requested them to avoid supporting the youth, he could only squash his anger.

I am Spirit Crusher, Vice Sect Master of Five Venoms. The venomous insects you saw just now is one of the insect herding arts we learned. Brother, we have been waiting around for two days and two nights to hunt a Hoof Shadow. If it is convenient for you, please do not stop us, or else, even if all of us have to die here and we have to bring it up to the forums, we will do it. We will not just swallow this humiliation.

Even though the hook-nosed man had a hostile expression, he tried his best to mediate the situation and did all he could to not show the fierce presence of a sect. Instead, he used the threat of the public to indirectly place pressure on Little North.
He was right, of course, and young people did care about their reputation quite a lot. It was especially so for people who had some fame. They would take care of their reputation quite a bit.


Little North was immediately put on the spot because of his words.
It was especially so since he had learned that the group had already begun to record their exchange. He took care to think of his words and actions even more and laughed at the sky before he tried to mediate the situation.

You’ve been scouting around for two days and two nights? Oh, it must have been very hard for you, but I’m really sorry, my boss and my party have also been chasing after a Hoof Shadow for a long time. I wonder if it’s this one.

When he said it, he cast a glance at the nearly dead Hoof Shadow lying on the ground as if he wanted to check whether it was the right horse.
The group’s expressions darkened!

So, you’re saying that you’re here to steal our loot!

The Five Venoms Sect Members behind the hook-nosed man could no longer hold themselves back. After Little North had so unreasonably and shamelessly interfered and blocked their group by himself, the anger in their hearts burned like a raging tornado. They wanted to release their insects to bite him to bits!

Snatch? How would I dare to do that alone?
Little North giggled and said,
What I’m saying is that you should not attack yet. Once my boss arrives, I’ll listen to him and see how he wants to handle matters!


Damn you!


Do you think all Hoof Shadows are yours? Since when are you people the ones who decide this?!
The group was filled with righteous indignation.



It’s not yours either.
Little North placed his hands on his chest and looked at the sky while acting like a rascal.
When the hook-nosed man looked at Little North’s actions, he knew that things were not good. The
boss
he spoke of had to be that person. There was no doubt about that. After all, not long ago, they had even fought against Dongfang Bubai’s successor together. Judging by Little North’s actions, he seemed to want the Hoof Shadow. The hook-nosed man grew tense, and he quickly began to weigh the situation.
Should he snatch that Hoof Shadow and become enemies with Happy, or should he…
The hook-nosed man’s expression changed rapidly. It was clear that he could not come to a decision.
