Miss Zou's face turned blue and white with anger, and she hated Ye Ling until her teeth itched. However, for the sake of Ye Ling saving her life, she suppressed her anger and returned to the team angrily.
The way everyone looked at Ye Ling at this moment was completely different from before, especially when they saw the sixth-order ice butterfly landing on his shoulder, they were in awe.
"Captain, I see that the tidal coast is calm. Except for these damn eight-clawed octopuses, there are no monsters around."
Miss Zou is no longer as arrogant as before. When she learned that the monks from Shangyang County recommended an experienced old man to be the captain, she also put down her pretense as the city lord and made a detailed report of the situation.
The old man muttered: "That's because the beast tide retreated to the East China Sea to rest, and they won't come ashore for a while. But when the tide rises in the middle of the night, the East China Sea monster beasts will still follow the tide to attack the city."
Everyone suddenly realized and heaved a sigh of relief.
Miss Zou lost her personal maid and almost died on the Tidal Coast. She was so sad and depressed that she clamored to go back to the city. She even said plausibly: "In this case, let's go back quickly. There is no need to investigate further, just report the captain’s speculation to the envoy.”
The old man said confidently: "When the tide rises in the middle of the night and the beast tide emerges again, only one companion will fly back to report the news to the envoy. The remaining fellow Taoists can hide behind the rocks with me and lead the beasts. After the tide is over, if you get out to pick up leaks, you can kill many stragglers from the Eastern Sea Demon Cultivator! Don't forget, we are not just out to spy on the enemy, but also to gain something in order to obtain battle medals and exchange items. "
Everyone nodded in agreement, only Miss Zou objected.
Ye Ling said calmly: "Miss Zou has lost her courage. If she doesn't have the guts to kill the monsters in the East China Sea, forget it. You should just go back and report the news!"
Miss Zou had never been insulted like this since she was a child, and no one dared to say a harsh word in front of her. Seeing that Ye Ling was looking down on her, Miss Zou immediately lost her temper and said unconvinced: "Nonsense! I am The young lady wants to show you how to kill me, then let’s see who can kill more!"
Ye Ling smiled slightly and was noncommittal.
The old man saw that everyone had agreed to stay and wait for the beast tide in the middle of the night to pass by to pick up leaks. So the old man directed everyone to dig a hole in a hidden place on the tidal coast. The deeper the better, and he also arranged a hole to cover the atmosphere. The forbidden formation hides it from the eyes of sea beasts.
Ye Ling also dug a deep pit according to the size of the pebble array, so that it would not be seen through by sea beasts with fiery eyes.
After everything was arranged, everyone got into the cave and waited quietly for midnight.
The tidal coast was quite quiet at first, with only the sound of the tide rolling over the beach. Later, the sound of the tide became louder and louder, and there was a faint fishy smell in the air.
The captain immediately notified his teammates in the deep pit beside him and ordered: "Brother Yang, you are Feng Xiu and you are faster. Go back and report the news! It will be dangerous if you are late. When you go back, tell them that the beast tide will rush up in half an hour." Go to the tidal coast and rush to the city to let them take precautions."
When the monk surnamed Yang heard that he only had half an hour, he quickly took up his sword and headed west.
Sure enough, as the time got closer and closer, the smell of the sea became stronger and stronger. The captain lowered his voice and said: "The monster of the East China Sea is not far away. Everyone has built a deep pit and hidden it. Hold your breath and concentrate. When I greet you, we can rush out together to hunt the monsters!"
Everyone responded in unison and immediately complied.
Ye Ling not only sealed the hole above, but also arranged a cobblestone array. He hid in the array, used the Dead Wood Technique, and immersed his mind in the Xianfu Jade Pendant, condensing his aura to the extreme.
With the roar of the sea breeze, a new wave of beasts rolled up the waves, breaking the tranquility of the tidal coast!
Everyone hiding in the pit was shocked when they heard the tsunami-like movement. Then they heard the rustling sound on the beach. Some unknown sea beast was crawling, and no one dared to release their consciousness rashly. Wait and see.
What surprised Ye Ling was that besides these noises, there were also voices on the beach, discussing something from far to near.
"In the daytime battle, our Qianzhu Island suffered heavy losses, and many of our companions lay dead on the ground. It's your patrolling Yasha clan's turn to take the lead at night!"
Then Ye Ling heard a sneer that sounded like a night owl: "Snake King with Green Eyes, it's you Qianzhu Island who started the war in the southeastern sea area! This demon is just to help the troops, you can send some low-level sea monsters there during the day. Attacking the city, hiding our strength, and now that we are bargaining with this demon, I want my sons to work for their lives! Hey, do you want to see us suffer heavy losses and Qianzhu Island take the opportunity to unify the two southeastern parts."
Ye Ling was secretly shocked after hearing this, and quietly sent a message to the Ice Butterfly King on his shoulder: "It turns out that among the monster beasts, there are many who have developed spiritual intelligence, and there are many who can speak human words."
Bingdie also said with spiritual consciousness: "Isn't it right! According to my perception, these two guys are both great demon cultivators at the Golden Core stage, and their status is equivalent to the two major city lords of Wu State, but the sea area they occupy must be It is wider than the jurisdiction of the city lord of Wu State."
Ye Ling waited until the two demon cultivators were far away and the arguing was gradually no longer heard, and then he heaved a sigh of relief. After all, he only had four sixth-order spiritual beasts and could not compete with them. These two great demon cultivators of the golden elixir stage are not only powerful themselves, but also have numerous demonic beasts under their control, which are enough to submerge his four spiritual beasts into the tide of beasts.
The Shangyang County monks in the other deep pits were not protected by the cobblestone array, and they were all frightened, fearing that the pit entrances were not blocked tightly and that they would be discovered by hordes of monsters.
Everyone waited until the beast tide passed and the voices above became increasingly sparse. Then the captain secretly dispersed his consciousness and looked outside.
"Come out of the cave! Let's go together and kill these monsters!"
The captain shouted loudly and rushed out of the pit first. Others jumped out one after another. Nearly half of the people were already frightened out of their wits by the tide of beasts. For a while, they did not dare to rush out of the pit. They just looked around and watched other people. How teammates act.
Ye Ling put away the pebble array, and under the protection of the sixth-order Ice Butterfly King, he jumped out of the pit calmly. He immediately noticed that the fishy smell in the sea breeze was extremely strong, and there were dozens of straggler monsters scattered on the tidal coast. .
Any straggler monsters were of low grade and limited in strength. Following the captain's order, everyone rushed to chase the straggler monsters on the tidal coast.
Miss Zou became more energetic, wielding a sixth-level top-quality phoenix-wing magic knife and slashing at low-level monsters, quickly collecting the beast souls, and at the same time looking at Ye Ling with pride, as if she was showing off the results of the battle to him. .
Ye Ling has no interest in these low-level monsters. The white-shirted envoy from the capital of Wu State made it very clear that only by killing monsters of the same level or even higher levels can he redeem a large number of battle medals and kill some small beasts. , even if you collect a lot of beast souls, the final battle medals you get are pitiful.
Just as Ye Ling was looking into the distance to find a suitable target, the sound of conch shells filled the night sky.
The captain's face turned ugly and he shouted loudly: "Quick! Kill this patrolling Yasha who blows conches! He is asking for help from the tribe and inviting friends!"
Whoosh!
A flash of cold crystal light flashed, and the sound of the conch suddenly stopped.
Everyone turned around and saw the fifth-level top-grade crystal rainbow bow in Ye Ling's hand!
