Looking at the tunnels in front of them, Ouyang Shuo asked, “Which one?”

“That one.”

Heartbroken Pirate pointed to a tunnel on the west side.

The players of Qingfeng Pavilion had not forgotten about their crushing defeat in Dali, so they naturally hated Xiao Alliance that guarded the Dali Satellite City. They still hoped to be able to have a faceoff against them in the underground world.

Ouyang Shuo did not try to stop them when he saw that.

The tunnels twisted and turned, having many ups and downs. The high spots were four to five meters high while the low points needed one to bend down to pass. Moreover, the tunnels were uneven in breadths and the lighting was not strong, making it easy for one to panic.

Although the empty ground was where the monsters appeared, this did not mean that there was no monster activity in the tunnels.

As they walked over, they were occasionally sieged by giant bats. There were even mice on the ground. These animals were not small to say the least as each one was as big as dogs and really ferocious; they had sharp teeth and menacing eyes.

These fellows were hidden in the darkness, so who knows when they would launch their sneak assaults? Naturally, it was not much for Ouyang Shuo, but the Divine Martial Guards were in for a problem.

They were used to killing on the battlefield, so they lacked experience in such fighting scenarios. Luckily, they all had high combat strength and were well equipped, so there were no casualties despite facing problems.

However, when Xu Chu saw that, he frowned.

As the Personal Guards of the Monarch, the Divine Martial Guards were supposed to be the cream of the crop. Not only should they be good at battlefield killing, but they should also be good at all types of fighting and all types of battlefields.

Not mentioning such small animals, but even against God beasts or supernatural things, they should be calm and face it easily.

‘After this, I’ll have to give them some special training.’ Xu Chu thought to himself.

After Wang Feng resigned from his position as Divine Martial Guards commander, Xu Chu had temporarily taken up the role. Looking at the situation, it seems like Ouyang Shuo was not planning to appoint a new commander.

After an hour, there were bright lights spreading out from the distance, revealing another empty ground. However, this place was already cleared out by Blood Shadow Alliance, so there no especially strong beasts.

Ouyang Shuo did not stop and ordered to continue their exploration.

The Divine Martial Guards had brought along large amounts of military grain pills, so they did not need to return to replenish. It was best if they could use this chance to train up. How could Ouyang Shuo not realize the problems that Xu Chu was noticing?

With such walking and stopping, it was quickly afternoon, and they had passed three empty lands. The surroundings of each were different; some were plains, some forests, some swamps, and some deserts.

As this was a game, all the rules were set by Gaia, so it designed it however it wanted to. In reality, there definitely would not be such places that went against the laws of physics.

Just as Ouyang Shuo was about to reach another empty land, intense fighting grunts sounded out from ahead.

“Are there other players?” Ouyang Shuo asked.

The last empty space was already explored by the Blood Shadow Alliance, so there should not be any fighting.

“Should not be.” Pirate also could not understand, “The guild leader had instructed us to clear out the west region to protect your safety. I want to see who is so bold; do they not want to live in the Satellite City anymore?”

When Ouyang Shuo heard that, he could not help but frown. It was not that he was unhappy about Blood Shadow Alliance clearing out the region. After all, Moon Shines over the River did so for his safety.

What he was unhappy about was the arrogance and pride that the members of Blood Shadow Alliance exuded. It had just been a few days, and they already felt that they owned the place; such a sign was not good.

However, these people were not his subordinates, and he was not in a position to comment.

After a short while, Pirate returned with a slightly excited face as he said, “Monarch, they are not players but a bunch of grey wolves attacking a bunch of NPCs.”

Grey wolves were a really common Gold Rank beast in the underground world. As they hunted in packs, their combat strength was high. Even if an elite squad faced them, they needed to be careful.

The wolf king in the pack had reached the Dark Gold Rank and might even be an advanced spirit beast.

The underground world did not only have monsters, and there were also human tribes living in it. Based on the designs of Gaia, these tribes and races were here either to run from calamities or by coincidence managed to hide here and proliferate.

After meeting NPCs, one would often be able to get quests, which was why Pirate was so excited.

Ouyang Shuo was interested and said, “Go, let’s go take a look!”

Passing through the tunnel, the place appeared more open and vast.

This empty land was shaped like a hill. Further in front, there was a river running through it. Hence, it was not as barren as other empty lands, and it was a rare flourishing environment; no wonder there was wolf pack activity.

However, because there was a lack of light, the wild grass was not green and jade in color; instead, they displayed an ink green.

On a small mountain in the middle of the hills, natives stood, dressed in linen and holding simple weapons. There were around 12 of them.

These natives were different from those on the surface as their bodies were thinner and their skin was grey. However, the most eye-catching part was the bear head tattooed on their chests, making them look really majestic and powerful.

Looking out, they gave the feeling of barbarians.

The interest and excitement in Ouyang Shuo’s eyes grew as he instructed the Divine Martial Guards to kill their way over.

The Divine Martial Guards swiftly formed up, taking out their God arm crossbows and firing. The grey wolves were actually really strong and did not instantly die under such attacks.

Under the commands of the wolf king, the grey wolf pack abandoned the natives and charged at the Divine Martial Guards.

The Divine Martial Guards were not afraid, shooting once more before swapping the bows out for their Tang Blades to engage the grey wolves in close combat. When Ouyang Shuo saw that, his fighting spirit was ignited and he took out his Tianmo Spear and approached.

When Xu Chu saw that, he brought the Personal Guards and followed swiftly behind.

With the military expanding time after time, Ouyang Shuo rarely had the chance to personally lead troops. The devil bloodline in his body was starting to be annoyed and unhappy as it revealed a craving for fresh blood.

Ouyang Shuo followed along, raising his spear and charging into the wolf pack. Although he did not frequent the battlefields, his skills had not grown rusty.

Along with the protection of Xu Chu and the Personal Guards, they engaged in a slaughter. When Pirate and the other members of the Blood Shadow Alliance standing at the side saw this scene, they decided that they did not need to help out.

Pirate turned around and said, “I’ve heard that the Monarch’s personal strength could be said to be top 3 amongst adventure gamemode players. I thought it was an exaggeration, but it seems like it was really true.”

“The wolf pack in front of us will not be able to force out his true strength.”

“Crazy!”

The members were all amazed. Only what this man was doing could be considered playing the game.

In the time that it took for them to say those words, the wolf pack had already suffered heavy casualties. When the wolf king saw that, it decisively ordered them to retreat. The wolves were really crafty animals, and they would not fight to the death.

Ouyang Shuo put away his Tianmo Spear and looked out at the mountain.

The NPCs sent down two people; the one leading was a middle-aged Chinese man. Seeing the equipment of the Divine Martial Guards, a look of respect appeared in his eyes, “Thank you sir for your help.”

Ouyang Shuo waved him off, “Let’s go take a look at the wounded!” Seeing that there were people lying down on the mountain, there were probably some that were heavily injured.

When they arrived on the mountain, they saw a man lying down; his face was ashen white, and he was close to dying.

Although the natives were covered in blood and scars, they did not care and just gathered around that man, looking really anxious. It seemed like he was a really core member of their group.

Ouyang Shuo frowned; then he took out a pill from his bag and fed it to the man. The pill was made by Bianque and could save a life at a crucial moment.

As expected, after eating the medicine, the man’s face turned several times better, and his breathing also slowed.

Seeing that, the natives around were all awed.

Ouyang Shuo did not relax as he felt that the injured man was not weak. In fact, he had true Qi rotating in his body.

And that energy was something he felt familiar with.

“Help him up!” Ouyang Shuo instructed.

Seeing that, the natives carefully helped the injured man up.

Ouyang Shuo sat crossed leg and pressed his hand onto the back of the man, causing a golden primordial energy to flow into the man’s body and then his meridians.

The moment they came into contact, the primordial energy burst with excitement.

Ouyang Shuo was astonished; this reaction further proved his conjecture. This injured man was training in a technique that was similar to the Yellow Emperor Internal Cultivation Technique.

He felt more and more curious about the history of these aboriginals.

If not, he would not have purposely wasted his primordial energy for an NPC.

With Ouyang Shuo’s help, the primordial energy in the man’s body slowly moved and started to recover, bringing him back from the brink of death.

For him to fully recover would require time.

After a short while, the injured man woke up. Seeing Ouyang Shuo, he held his hand gratefully, his eyes filled with shock as he muttered, “Emperor.”

“What?” Ouyang Shuo asked.

The man gritted his teeth and asked, “Savior, you are training in the Yellow Emperor Internal Cultivation Technique?”

“That’s right!”

After receiving this reply, the man grew even more excited. Not only him, but even the other natives were more relaxed when they looked at Ouyang Shuo, and they even showed respect toward him.

Ouyang Shuo probed, “Are you descendants of the Yellow Emperor?”

“That’s right?”

“Why did you appear here?” action

The man sighed; his expression was complicated, “It’s a long story, are you willing to listen?”

Ouyang Shuo could not ask for more, “Please!”

The man was delighted. He asked some men to collect the prey and prepared to set off.

When Ouyang Shuo saw that, he instructed the Divine Martial Guards to collect all the bodies of the grey wolves as a gift to the Chinese tribe.

Under their guidance, they crossed through tunnel after tunnel before arriving at a closely guarded empty land after three hours.

Of course, the nighttime in the underground world was not too different from its daytime.

However, the empty land here was even vaster, and one could not see the ends. If one placed this on the surface, it would be a basin with valleys, grass fields, streams, and even forests.

It was no wonder that the natives built their base here as it was truly a treasure ground.
