Chapter 704 Southern Desert Continent
704 Southern Desert Continent
“It’s you, it’s you!”
The Monster Ape roared in fear. He knew this human kid in front of him.
Not long ago, the Monster Ape had seen him transform into a savage butcher and slaughter the entire Great Wilderness Mountains. No one dared to fight with him.
Lu Benwei just stood there. Even if he did not move, the Monster Ape was so scared that it did not even dare to breathe. It hugged its head and curled up in a corner.
Lu Benwei ignored it and Ji Han. Instead, he wandered around the cave.
Ji Han did not understand what Lu Benwei meant, and she did not understand the Monster Ape’s actions.
Was Hongyi very powerful? Why was the Monster Ape so afraid?
Then, she thought of the corpses she saw along the way, and her mouth unconsciously opened into an “O” shape.
“Are these all humans who died at your hands?” Lu Benwei asked coldly.
He had just taken out a skeleton from a corner. Judging from its size and body shape, it seemed to be a female who had just come of age.
The Monster Ape’s eyelids twitched violently, and its body trembled.
“Yes, yes.”
It knew very well what would happen if it denied the truth.
“Why did they die?” Lu Benwei looked at him coldly.
“Because they couldn’t stand it and wanted to run, so I broke their necks,” the Monster Ape answered truthfully.
Veins bulged on Lu Benwei’s forehead.
They were at the age of flowers and should be blooming like flowers. However, they were trapped in this dark and smelly cave by the Monster Ape. In the end, they even lost their lives.
Lu Benwei had even heard that this group of young girls had been deceived by the Ji Tribe and sold here. He did not know whether to laugh or cry. The naive Ji Han thought that letting the Monster Ape eat her could protect the tribe for a while.
At this moment, the Monster Ape was very nervous. It pointed at Ji Han and said, “If I return her to you, will you let me go?”
“You raped and killed so many people. Would I let you go? Would those girls in hell let you go?” Lu Benwei said coldly.
The Monster Ape could not help but fly into a rage. It had already made the biggest concession and let go of the other party that it liked.
“You forced me to do this!”
The Monster Ape’s eyes turned red, and all the hair on its body stood up. It flickered with a black light, and its aura suppressed the mountains and rivers.
Lu Benwei shielded Ji Han behind him and said, “Is this the power of burning one’s life force to temporarily increase one’s battle prowess?”
“Hongyi, let’s go!” Ji Han said in a panic, “In this state, the Monster Ape is almost invincible!”
At the same time, the giant red scorpion at the foot of the mountain shook its head and sneered. “Sigh, forcing the Monster Ape to burn its life force to increase its combat strength. Even if the heavens come, they won’t be able to save you.”
Right at this moment, a loud sound rang out. The entire mountain in front of them trembled and sank.
“Rumble!”
A huge amount of smoke and dust rolled out in all directions like waves. Two figures jumped out of the smoke and dust of the collapsed mountain and jumped toward it.
The giant scorpion was stunned. After seeing the figure clearly, its attitude immediately became correct. “Sir, you’re out? Where’s the Monster Ape?”
Lu Benwei licked his lips and said, “It has been resolved.”
The giant scorpion was extremely shocked. The devilish ape, which had burned its life source and possessed insufferably powerful strength, was easily dealt with just like that. The human man in front of it was truly terrifying!
Gritting its pincers, the giant scorpion laughed and said, “Sir, you’re indeed peerless. You must be a prodigy from a large country, right?”
“Cut the crap and send her back to the Ji Tribe,” Lu Benwei said indifferently.
After saying that, Lu Benwei placed the unconscious Ji Han on the back of the giant scorpion.
In the cave just now.
Lu Benwei went all out. The dual bloodline power and the four major enhancement skills circulated at the same time, ending the battle like crushing dry weeds.
Terrifying blood qi overflowed and knocked Ji Han out.
The giant scorpion was a little hesitant. “Sir, do you want to continue exploring the Great Wilderness Mountains?”
“You don’t have to care about how I do things, do you?”
“No, no, no, my lord, you misunderstood me,” the giant scorpion said in fear.
“She’s from the Ji Tribe. Now that the Ji Tribe’s spirit has been defeated by you, the Jiang Tribe is about to attack the Ji Tribe. By sending her back, you’re sending her into a dragon’s pool and a tiger’s den. Moreover, if the Ji Tribe knew that the Monster Ape died because of her, they might punish her. If my lord is kind-hearted, why don’t you take her away?”
Lu Benwei thought for a while and thought that since the Ji Tribe leader could betray his tribesmen, he would punish Ji Han when she returned.
Although he was not a saint, he would not do something like offering tributes to his tribesmen for the pleasure of the monsters.
“In that case, I’ll go to the Ji Tribe,” Lu Benwei said directly.
The giant scorpion’s black pupils rolled and said, “That’s fine too. I’ll accompany you.”
Lu Benwei stepped on the back of the giant scorpion and moved as fast as lightning toward the south.
“Let me ask you, what’s this continent called? What countries are there? And what about those powerful monster clans?”
“Sir, you’re not from this land?” the giant scorpion asked in surprise.
“Don’t ask questions you shouldn’t ask,” Lu Benwei said coldly.
“I’m sorry,” the giant scorpion said in fear, “I know I was wrong. I’ll answer you now.”
He swallowed his saliva and said, “This continent is called the Southern Desert Continent. 70 percent of the entire area is covered by deserts. This Great Wilderness Mountains is the northernmost part of the Southern Desert Continent. If you walk from here to the end of the south, you’ll need to walk for tens of millions of feet.”
Lu Benwei was slightly surprised. The Southern Desert Continent was several times larger than the Dragon Kingdom.
After a pause, the giant scorpion continued, “As for the countries you mentioned, there are countless of them, not to mention small tribes like the Ji Tribe. There are simply as many as the hairs on an ox. However, there are only five empires.
“There are the Huqin Dynasty, the Dongming Dynasty, the Liuli Dynasty, the Mangzhu Dynasty, and the Jixia Dynasty established by the girl’s mother.”
“You mean the mother of the tribe we’re going to is a dynasty?” Lu Benwei frowned.
The giant scorpion nodded.
“Then why are they being bullied?”
“My Lord, you might not know this, but the Ji Tribe we’re going to is one of the tens of thousands of branches of the true Ji Tribe. Its bloodline has long been diluted to the point where it can’t be diluted any further. The real Ji Tribe can’t be bothered with these small disputes.” The giant scorpion laughed.
“Then what are the monster clans that I mentioned?” Lu Benwei asked again, “What’s the matter?”
The giant scorpion was very surprised.
