Chapter 327: Chapter 327: Recruiting Monkey (Part 2)

”Brother Jun, you are really something, actually managing to recruit these Monkeys...” Lei Qinian patted Jun Moxiao on the shoulder, full of admiration, and said telepathically.

”It’s alright. We and these Monkeys, it’s a mutually beneficial situation,” Jun Moxiao responded, scratching his head with a smile.

These Monkeys were rather principled and wouldn’t harass humans relentlessly. That was why Jun Moxiao had thought of recruiting a group of Monkeys to protect himself. It turned out to be a fortuitous success; he had actually managed to hire over a hundred Monkeys.

These were over a hundred Nirvana Realm experts! With them protecting him, he wouldn’t have to fear the people from the Xuanyang Sect for the time being. Unless everyone from the Xuanyang Sect gathered together, they likely couldn’t pose a threat to him.

”This is really interesting.”

Ye Yun watched this novel scene unfold and couldn’t help but laugh. With the protection of these hundred-plus Monkeys, the two young fellows would be safe for now.

Ye Yun had not interfered with the transaction Jun Moxiao had just made. It was purely Jun Moxiao’s good luck. Moreover, the Monkey Leader was rather honorable, harboring no intentions of murder and robbery, so they quickly came to an agreement, and the deal was struck.

Ye Yun also discovered that the Monkeys in the Heavenly Moon Secret Region indeed had no intention of relentlessly pursuing and killing Cultivators. It seemed the so-called Great Saint had long ago implanted these rules in the hearts of these Monkeys.

Thanks to the protection of over a hundred Monkeys, Jun Moxiao and Lei Qinian no longer had to move about furtively as before.

After dividing the golden Laurel fruit, they both ate the fruit as they swiftly flew forward.

Their speed was not particularly fast. They found that if they moved too quickly, the Monkeys would protest, standing in place and constantly shouting at them while brandishing their staves. The two had no choice but to slow down.

Two Cultivators leading a troop of Monkeys, appearing in a grand procession through the Heavenly Moon Secret Region, naturally attracted the attention of many other Cultivators.

”Look! What’s that? Am I seeing things? Why are all those Monkeys following those two young men?”

”Truly strange. Since when did these Monkeys become so obedient?”

”Don’t the Monkeys in the Heavenly Moon Secret Region usually shout about attacking and killing any Cultivator they see, demanding medicinal pills? Why does it seem different this time?”

The surrounding Cultivators hid far away. Witnessing this scene, they were stunned and couldn’t help but marvel.

And those Monkeys, even when they saw these Cultivators, did not attack them. They continued to follow Jun Moxiao and Lei Qinian.

”Brother Jun, look! All the Cultivators are so shocked their jaws are about to drop to the floor,” Lei Qinian said, laughing heartily.

”Haha, yes. Hopefully, we don’t encounter those fellows from the Xuanyang Sect up ahead,” Jun Moxiao also burst into laughter.

If they were to encounter Xuanyang Sect disciples now, with over a hundred Monkeys behind them, those disciples would probably be scared out of their wits.

Speak of the devil, and he shall appear.

From above a mountain peak, seven or eight red sword lights suddenly flew over and descended, revealing seven or eight red-clothed Xuanyang Sect disciples.

”Brother Jun, Xuanyang Sect disciples are here, but there aren’t many of them,” Lei Qinian said with a mysterious smile.

”Brother Lei, let’s charge over and scare them witless!” Jun Moxiao declared, full of heroic spirit. He drew his sword and flew towards the mountain peak.

Lei Qinian followed closely behind him.

Their flying speed wasn’t too fast, so the troop of Monkeys managed to keep up.

The seven or eight Xuanyang Sect disciples standing on the mountain peak saw these Monkeys charging alongside the two Loose Cultivators, and their expressions changed drastically.

”Am I seeing things? How did these two Loose Cultivators team up with the Monkeys?” one of the red-clothed youths exclaimed, his eyes wide.

”Exactly! Could they be fleeing from that pack of Monkeys and trying to use us as scapegoats?” another person chimed in.

”That’s possible! But we absolutely can’t let them succeed. Let’s stop them quickly and create an opportunity for those Monkeys!” a slightly older red-clothed youth shouted.

After he finished speaking, these red-clothed youths immediately drew their swords, unleashing waves of sword light that formed a large, sweeping net of light.

Seeing the malicious intent of these Xuan Yang Sword Sect disciples, Jun Moxiao was furious. However, with just him and Lei Qinian, they were outnumbered and unlikely to be their opponents.

Jun Moxiao pulled Lei Qinian to a sudden halt. He turned his head and shouted to the Monkey Leader behind them, ”Brother Monkey, the Xuanyang Sect disciples want to kill us! Quick, lend us a hand!”

The Monkey Leader shrieked. Wielding its staff, it soared into the sky, transforming into a black shadow that shot past over their heads. Its cultivation base had already reached the Nirvana Realm Sixth Level, while among these Xuanyang Sect disciples, only one was at the Fifth Level of the Nirvana Realm.

BOOM!

The Monkey Leader swung its staff, creating a blur of afterimages that instantly shattered the large net of sword light. The Monkey Leader hovered in mid-air, pointing its staff at the red-clothed youths ahead.

”EE EE...” At its command, the hundred-plus Monkeys behind it, wielding their staves, charged towards the red-clothed youths.

”This can’t be happening!” a red-clothed youth thought, his eyes wide with terror.

These Monkeys aren’t pursuers! They’re with those two Loose Cultivators!

The red-clothed youths were terrified. They immediately turned to flee, but how could the Monkeys let them escape? Instantly, the Monkeys swarmed and surrounded them, raining down a barrage of blows with their staves on the seven or eight red-clothed youths.

THWACK! THWACK!

These Xuanyang Sect disciples had no strength to retaliate. They were constantly pushed back, desperately manipulating their sword light and throwing out various magical treasures to defend themselves.

”Who would have thought! Haha! The Xuanyang Sect is one of the four major powers of the Heavenly Moon Dynasty, yet in the Heavenly Moon Secret Region, their disciples are being beaten so miserably!” Lei Qinian burst into laughter.

Jun Moxiao also found it quite amusing and couldn’t help laughing out loud. In previous battles, he had always been one against many, seeking breakthroughs on the verge of life and death. The pressure was immense, and the fights were extremely arduous. This time, he had a large group of thugs, each one ’fearless in the face of death,’ directly beating these Xuanyang Sect disciples until they threw away their helmets and armor, utterly routed.

After laughing for a moment, Jun Moxiao’s expression suddenly turned cold, and he drew his Chaos Element Unlimited Sword.

”Brother Jun, you’re going to attack?” Lei Qinian asked quickly, his heart skipping a beat.

”Since these Xuanyang Sect disciples want to take our lives, how could I let them live?” Jun Moxiao gritted his teeth and charged forward.

Lei Qinian was stunned at first. He hadn’t expected this young brother to be so ruthless and decisive, intending to kill Xuanyang Sect disciples at the Fourth and Fifth Levels of the Nirvana Realm while only being at the First Level of the Nirvana Realm himself. This level of boldness made Lei Qinian feel ashamed of his own inadequacy.

Lei Qinian also drew his sword and, transforming into a ray of sword light, charged forward. However, Lei Qinian was shocked to find that due to the sheer number of Monkeys, with staff shadows flying everywhere, he couldn’t even find an opening to join the fray.

Just then, a Divine Dragon Phantom miraculously weaved through the dense barrage of staff shadows and successfully broke into their midst.

A sword light flashed.

A red-clothed youth, busy dodging the Monkeys’ attacks, had no way to evade this astonishing sword light.

PUCHI.

The sword light vanished. A hole instantly appeared over the red-clothed youth’s heart, and hot, crimson blood spurted out like an arrow.
