“It doesn’t want to go with you.”Jiang Fei shrugged at Yi Xiaoqiu.

“Brother Yuan, I know that I’m weak. This illusionary snake doesn’t like me. But it’s okay. My master plans to use it as a tool spirit. You just have to seal it,”said Yi Xiaoqiu with a smile.

“No! I’d rather die than be a tool spirit!”The illusionary snake screamed through its mind power, then, it begged Jiang Fei for mercy. “Sir, I beg you. You can either take me in or kill me and take my mana core. But please don’t hand me over to them!”

“Sigh!”Jiang Fei sighed. Of course, he understood why the illusionary snake was so resistant to becoming an artifact spirit. If that happened, not only would he lose his freedom, but he would also be enslaved for eternity until the day the magical artifact was destroyed!

“Forget it, you can leave…”Jiang Fei let go and gestured for the illusionary snake to leave on its own.

“Master, you want to let me go?”The illusionary snake asked in disbelief. After all, in its world, the strong preyed on the weak. If it was strong enough today, these humans would be its food, however, it was not as skilled as humans. It accepted its fate. It was satisfied as long as it was not refined into an artifact spirit. It did not expect Jiang Fei to let it go.

“HMM! You can go. It’s useless for me to take your crystal core. Since you would rather die than become an artifact spirit, why should I force you into a dead end?”Jiang Fei smiled.

“I will remember you. If we meet again in the future, I will definitely repay you handsomely!”The illusionary snake looked deeply at Jiang Fei and left as fast as lightning.

“Eh? Senior Yuan, why did you let it go?”Yi Xiaoqiu asked in confusion. After all, catching the illusionary snake was not an easy task.

“It would rather die than be a weapon spirit. Why do you have to force it?”Jiang Fei laughed.

“TSK! Hypocrite! How could a ferocious beast be willing to be a weapon spirit? Who would not forcefully seal a weapon spirit to craft a supreme-grade magical artifact…”Qin Fang said as he glanced at Jiang Fei.

“I’m hypocrite, I’m loyal, I’m loyal. I caught the illusionary snake. If I want to let it go, I’ll let it go. Why Are You So Naggy? If you have the ability, go catch it yourself!”Jiang Fei glared at Qin Fang, along the way, he had been making sarcastic remarks. At first, Jiang Fei did not want to talk to him. However, this kid had been acting up again and again.

“You…”Qin Fang was about to flare up, but Jiang Fei’s cold gaze woke him up. Jiang Fei had been too kind along the way. This kid had already forgotten about Jiang Fei’s strength. Until now.., he was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat!

What was this place? The depths of the green wood forest! This place was deserted. It could be said to be the best place to kill and loot. If Qin Fang really provoked this guy in front of him, no one would know even if he was killed!

After thinking about this, Qin Fang’s face became even gloomier. However, he also understood one thing. He was far weaker than the other party. Even if he was dissatisfied, he had to bear with it. After all, the difference in strength between the two parties was too big, even if he planned a sneak attack, he would not be able to win. Wouldn’t he be courting death if he fought head-on?

“Senior, what should we do?”At this moment, Yi Xiaoqiu turned around and asked.

“What else can we do? Let’s keep moving forward. Maybe we will meet other illusionary snakes!”Qin Fang sighed. If he had known earlier, he would not have tried to accept this quest.

After that, Jiang Fei and the other two walked deeper into the green wood forest. At that moment, Qin Fang stopped.

“We can’t go any further. There are already ferocious beasts marking their territory. If we go any further, we’ll enter the territory of the ferocious beasts!”Qin Fang said.

“Ferocious beasts have territory?”Jiang Fei was confused. However, Qin Fang was clearly not going to answer Jiang Fei’s question. He pretended not to hear him and turned to the other side.

“Senior Yuan, don’t you beasts have territories on Mars?”Yi Xiaoqiu asked curiously.

“Maybe. I have never been to such a place.”Jiang Fei was really stumped. Although he claimed to be from Mars, he had only been on Mars for a short period of time. He did not know about these things at all.

“Oh! It seems that senior Yuan’s time is spent on training! The treatment of geniuses is really different! Unlike us, we have to do quests to earn the resources for training!”Yi Xiaoqiu said enviously, however, she also taught Jiang Fei some knowledge about berserk beasts.

It turned out that there was an unwritten rule between berserk beasts and human cultivators. This was also a compromise that both sides had made after countless expeditions. Berserk beasts had their own territory, and there was a hunting zone on the periphery of the territory!

Don’t think that the hunting zone was a place where human cultivators hunted berserk beasts. In fact, this was also a hunting ground for berserk beasts to hunt human cultivators. After all, human cultivators had a large amount of energy in their bodies. This was also a great tonic for Berserk beasts!

Therefore, whether it was humans or ferocious beasts, both parties were free to hunt in the hunting ground. Regardless of whether there were deaths or injuries on the other side, they were not allowed to take revenge outside the hunting ground.

Of course, not everyone could enter the hunting ground. Experts who were beyond the Mahayana stage were prohibited from slaughtering in the hunting ground. For example, if Jiang Fei had just killed the illusionary snake and the ferocious beasts knew his true strength.., if that happened, the high-tier ferocious beasts would definitely not let the matter rest. If Jiang Fei did not compensate the ferocious beasts, a war would be inevitable.

Although both parties were free to hunt in the hunting grounds, humans were definitely not allowed to go into the territory of the ferocious beasts. The ferocious beasts were also not allowed to step out of the hunting grounds to slaughter civilians and low-tier cultivators. This was a rule that both parties had adhered to for thousands of years.

Moreover, this rule was not limited to the green wood forest. It was the same throughout the entire celestial star and even the five directions of the world.

It was also because of this rule that ferocious beasts that could not transform into human form would usually not leave their territory. They would only go to the hunting grounds to hunt at most and would not step out of the hunting grounds at the furthest, this was also the reason why Jiang Fei and the others had not seen ferocious beasts in the five directions of the world for so long.

As for those ferocious beasts that could transform into human form, although they had left their own territory, they would still obediently follow the rules of human society after entering human society.

“I see!”After Jiang Fei heard Yi Xiaoqiu’s explanation, he nodded in his heart.

“Senior Yuan, the sky is completely dark now. Let’s set up camp first,”said Yi Xiaoqiu. At this time, the sky outside was already close to dusk, and the dense forest had already turned completely dark.

“Alright!”Jiang Fei nodded.

“Junior sister, we only brought a tent. There can only be two people living in it,”said Qin Fang with a troubled look.

“Hehe, this kid is quite shrewd. Is he here for a quest or to pick up girls?”Jiang Fei laughed in his heart.

“Ah?”As expected, Yi Xiaoqiu was dumbfounded when she heard it. This time, she was not worried that Jiang Fei did not have a place to live. Instead, she was a girl. It was not appropriate for her to stay in a tent with anyone!
