This small pack of mad dogs, with just over thirty, could find five Frenzy Demon Stones just by searching around once.
Jiang Xiaobai felt certain that there must be more than this number of mad dog packs, and the number of Frenzy Demon Stones in their den would be terrifying.
Thinking of this, Jiang Xiaobai realized this was a massive opportunity.
“If there really is a chance to steal those Frenzy Demon Stones from the mad dog packs, this trip to the Mad Demon Secret Land will yield a lot.”
Jiang Xiaobai muttered in his heart.
He already made plans in case he found excess Frenzy Demon Stones in the Mad Demon Secret Land, and some places he just couldn’t get to.
Those Frenzy Demon Stones would be a way to make a fortune.
Based on the previous poor harvest rate of the Frenzy Demon Stones, it was clear that people were short of these stones.
If he could sell them, it would be for a high price, and these Frenzy Demon Stones were only useful in the Mad Demon Secret Land. They would be as useless as waste rocks once outside.
For a moment, Jiang Xiaobai couldn’t help but feel excited.
“But I’m sure I’m not the only one who knows this. The Thousand Yuan Dynasty and the Four Sects and Five Mountains have been entrenched here for a long time, and they would know every time the Mad Demon Secret Land is open.”
“Maybe they are also planning on something similar…”
Speculating in his heart, Jiang Xiaobai and AnRan quietly followed behind, while he planned out all the details in his mind.
Considering the mission that Xiao Yuwei had told him about earlier, Jiang Xiaobai thought that, once the people from the Four Sects and Five Mountains learned about the massive amount of Frenzy Demon Stones in the mad dog packs, they had no countermeasures.
After all, these powers, when they discovered something good, there was no reason not to causing a stir.
If it was the case, Xiao Yuwei would not have given Jiang Xiaobai such a task, and would surely use him and AnRan as baits.
So, it could be basically ruled out that these major powers would fight for these Frenzy Demon Stones.
It seemed to be a good thing, but at the same time, the problem was also significant.
Could he, Jiang Xiaobai, deal with the mad dog packs that even the Four Sects and Five Mountains could not handle?
“Boss, I think it’s risky.”
“After hearing Jiang Xiaobai’s analysis, AnRan slowly said, “We two going there is like delivering ourselves to them?”
“And if it really turns out to be like what you said, and you see those Frenzy Demon Stones piled up into mountains, it won’t be a good thing.”
“At that time, it will be heartbreaking. I guess, boss, you will stir things up upon seeing so many benefits.”
By the end, AnRan had somewhat lost his nerve.
Joking aside, shouldn’t he lose his nerve? So many mad dogs, they could handle two or three, but not if the number exceeded five. The two of them could not cope with it.
If the number surpassed thirty, like the pack before them, it would be like delivering themselves to their deaths.
They couldn’t last more than ten breaths.
And that was only because the realm of these mad dogs wasn’t high. Here, they had virtually no natural enemies, and there must be exceptionally strong creatures in their pack.
If they really stirred up trouble, they would have an ugly death.
“Alright, alright, I’m not really sending you to your death; we are just going to observe. If there’s a chance, we’ll grab it; if not, we’ll definitely leave.”
Jiang Xiaobai waved his hand and said, “With this kind of time, it’s better to go on a good search, and maybe we can get more Frenzy Demon Stones.”
The two of them stopped talking and slowly followed the mad dog pack.
After walking for nearly an hour, Jiang Xiaobai suddenly saw a huge black silhouette ahead.
Because there weren’t many glowing plants around, he couldn’t see it clearly.
But the silhouette was enough to make him feel an immense pressure. It looked like a huge mountain, but he couldn’t tell exactly what it was.
But the closer they followed the mad dog pack to that place, the more frightening Jiang Xiaobai’s heart felt.
The violent and ferocious auras in the surroundings were getting stronger, and Jiang Xiaobai could even hear intermittent roars in the wind.
And the mad dogs ahead slowed down when they reached here, and started to perk up.
“What’s going on?” AnRan asked, puzzled.
“Quiet, don’t make a sound.”
Jiang Xiaobai hurriedly covered AnRan’s mouth, and lay down on the ground.
They saw that a pile of mad dogs suddenly appeared before them, numbering in the terrifying thousands!
And, those mad dogs’ cultivation levels were very high; Jiang Xiaobai saw a mad dog in the late stage of Transcendence!
Every mad dog had dark red patterns on its body, which could faintly glow in the dark. So many mad dogs gathered together almost lit up the place ahead.
Jiang Xiaobai and AnRan were so frightened that they dared not move, and they even held their breaths.
Good grief, if they were discovered by the mad dogs, it would be a one-way street to death.
In AnRan’s words, they wouldn’t be enough to be divided among these mad dogs even if they turned to poop.
“Boss, it’s over, we’re dead!”
AnRan sent a message to Jiang Xiaobai, his voice trembling.
Jiang Xiaobai, although tense, his face was quite calm.
He found these mad dogs seem not to be very observant. They hadn’t been discovered following the mad dog pack all along, which proved it.
“Don’t worry, we’ll be fine. I am just curious whether there are any more mad dogs behind them.”
Jiang Xiaobai sent a message back.
Just after he finished speaking, he wished he could slap himself.
Because another thousand mad dogs came!
They came from another direction. After the two mad dog packs met, dog barks and howls continued, and it was noisy.
But they didn’t notice that someone was hiding on the side. After a round of yapping and howling, a leader mad dog appeared, leading them towards the black silhouette ahead.
“Boss, shall we stop following?”
“How can we not follow? Let’s go and take a look.”
Jiang Xiaobai smiled and grabbed AnRan’s arm without saying a word. AnRan tried to break free several times but couldn’t, so he had to give up.
“Boss, why is your hand shaking?”
“How could I be shaking? It must be you.”
“No, it’s really you who’s shaking…”
Then they saw Jiang Xiaobai laughing ferociously, looking at AnRan: “It’s you who’s shaking.”
“Yes… yes… it’s me who’s shaking…”
AnRan was startled and quickly agreed, though he grumbled in his heart for a long time.
“You’re clearly scared too…”
Jiang Xiaobai ignored AnRan, his gaze fixed deathly on the giant silhouette ahead.
As the mad dog packs drew closer to the silhouette, Jiang Xiaobai’s face gradually changed from serious to pale.
Sweat beads covered his forehead…
