Chapter 919: Taste
Chapter 919: Taste
After agreeing with the Death King Tree, Ye Zhongming relaxed.
He wasn’t afraid that the Death King Tree would go against its word because the two solutions it gave the mutated plant were too attractive. It wouldn’t give up on a chance to get to level nine just for a full meal.
The soul contract was sometimes less reliable than interests.
What was more exciting was that, be it the first solution in tree form or the second solution in human form, they couldn’t be solved quickly. The Death King Tree could be considered a Cloud Peak member during this period.
To make a level eight expert who had touched the cusp of level nine a bodyguard, Ye Zhongming felt like he wouldn’t even be afraid of Yangos.
In that instance, he even felt like after the matter, he should find a time to bring Death King Tree and the level eight kings to deal with the Chain Prisoner.
After these thoughts appeared, he turned his attention back to the corpses.
It was not a good signal for this mysterious squad to appear around Cloud Peak, especially at such a sensitive time.
The Death King Tree saw his expression and walked over. It specifically walked two rounds around him. The translucent body’s female figure got close to Ye Zhongming.
This made him roll his eyes. He wanted to tell it that it couldn’t be so shameless if it were a woman. But thinking about how it often talked about mating, there was no point in saying that to it, so he kept quiet.The Death King Tree smiled, and its body changed. It turned back to what Ye Zhongming had seen the first time; it was much smaller. The female body was also covered.
Ye Zhongming smiled. The Death King Tree was still a plant, and this was its original state. The crystal state should be its battle form.
“You are guessing their background?”
Death King Tree shook its crown and said to Ye Zhongming.
This made his eyes light up. There was no point in him guessing. It had eaten these people, so it absorbed their minds and should know something. He could just ask it.
“Right, these people won’t be good to Cloud Peak and could be considered our common enemy.”
The Death King Tree’s beautiful female face took a look at Ye Zhongming and gave it an expression, telling him that it wouldn’t fall for his tricks. But it still told him the answer.
“They come from an organization called Heart Assassination.”
Heart Assassination?
Ye Zhongming frowned as he had never heard of such an organization. Moreover, this wasn’t an organization he knew from his last life.
Soul Merchant, Glory Army, Cannibal Chain, and God Hall were all organizations from his last life, and they also existed in this life. The only change is that in the last life, Ye Zhongming couldn’t come into contact with them. In this life, they lost to him.
But he had never heard of Heart Assassination.
“They are also behind this whole thing.” Death King Tree’s following words caused his killing intent to rise.
“En-- Your taste now is the best. Rage, battle, excitement that makes humans the best food.”
“They have more people than this, right?”
Ye Zhongming ignored its drunk expression and continued asking.
Since these people caused this, they would definitely try to benefit. But these people aren’t enough, and there would be other squads.
Since Ye Zhongming bumped into them, he wouldn’t let them go. Even if he couldn’t deal with all of them, he had to prepare for them.
Moreover, with the Death King Tree here, he had to make use of it.
“Two more locations, around 10 thousand.” Death King Tree thought about it before answering.
Although it could communicate fluently with Ye Zhongming, it still had to get used to how humans think when it concerned some matters.
“Can the two of us kill them?”
Ye Zhongming was enemies with these people who sent Cloud Peak to the cliff's edge, so he naturally wouldn’t let them go. But he couldn’t get help from Cloud Peak. If this organization had no experts, Death King Tree and he should be able to deal with this.
Death King Tree’s World Nature was a huge AOE killing skill.
“Yes!”
Death King Tree was surprisingly helpful, but before Ye Zhongming became happy, what it said made him feel helpless.
“I can help you, but I am tired of these humans.” The Death King Tree’s female face licked its lips. One had to say that the face didn’t look alive. “Unless you give me some blood.”
Seeing Ye Zhongming stare at it, the Death King Tree giggled and then said, “This fellow will produce that soil, right? Give me some.”
Earth Elf was fed by Ye Zhongming and could produce fertile soil at any moment. It seemed like the Death King Tree’s previous words were just to set the tone for what it would say.
It was a plant, so naturally, it wanted the Fertile Soil.
“Okay, but it is useful for me, and I can’t give you too much, only a little.”
“Deal.”
They agreed once again. The Death King Tree pointed in a direction, and they headed out.
Death King Tree’s movement shocked Ye Zhongming. It dug into the ground and only left a branch for Ye Zhongming to follow. It was like an underground tank, moving quickly, and Ye Zhongming nearly lost track of it.
After over a dozen minutes, Death King Tree brought Ye Zhongming to an abandoned building.
The moment Ye Zhongming appeared, a few people ran out. They were actually from Cloud Peak.
“Boss! It is really you!”
A warrior was so happy that it wanted to jump. Its face was filled with joy.
“Sister Lei is on top; she would be happy to have you here.”
