“Another Frenzy Demon Stone, Boss, have we lucked out today or what?”

An Ran excitedly looked at the Frenzy Demon Stone in his hand. This was the twenty-fifth Frenzy Demon Stone they had found.

With this number, the duo could entirely enter the fifth secret domain, but unfortunately, twenty of the twenty-five Frenzy Demon Stones had to go into Xiao Yuwei’s pocket.

Who knew how many more Frenzy Demon Stones they could find then.

“Considering how little we’ve got, we must act independently under the current circumstances. We shouldn’t run away from Xiao Yuwei over a few Frenzy Demon Stones. There must be even more dangerous places ahead that we don’t know about.”

Jiang Xiaobai calmly said: “Oh, your short-sightedness is your downfall, fatty. Today, your boss will give you another lesson. Sometimes, you have to make some sacrifices in order to get a bigger reward, understand?”

“Oh.”

An Ran nodded blankly, and then continued to search for Frenzy Demon Stones.

One has to admit that the essence of this money-crazy fatty was reassuring at times like these. His eyes were as though they had been upgraded, scouring every small detail.

Not a single spot could be missed. Even in the situation of rushing at high speed, he could quickly spot the fleeting purple glow.

After searching for another hour and collecting two more Frenzy Demon Stones, Jiang Xiaobai clearly felt their luck seemed to have run out.

Before that hour, they could find at least five Frenzy Demon Stones!

No exaggeration, their luck was truly explosive.

“This can’t go on. If our luck runs out, we might turn into damned losers and not find a single Frenzy Demon Stone.”

Jiang Xiaobai knew they couldn’t go on like this. If they continued to rely solely on luck and hard work to find Frenzy Demon Stones, they wouldn’t harvest much in the remaining half-day.

They had to try a different approach.

“Boss, look, there’s a flash over there!”

At this time, An Ran shouted excitedly again and then rushed over excitedly.

“Damn, your eyes are truly upgraded, you saw that?”

Jiang Xiaobai was taken aback. In the moment he was distracted, Fatty sneaked in an advantage, leaving a bitter taste in his mouth.

He didn’t overthink it and just followed with a chuckle.

As An Ran approached the location of the flash, he saw the Frenzy Demon Stone peacefully lying on the ground, a glimmer of excitement in his eyes.

Just as he was about to reach out and touch the Frenzy Demon Stone, a shout came from behind.

“Don’t touch it!”

It was Jiang Xiaobai’s voice. An Ran trusted Jiang Xiaobai a lot, stopped in his tracks at the sound of the voice.

Immediately afterwards, he felt himself being picked up and whisked away.

Then he saw a sword light appear ahead, which was especially dazzling in this boundless darkness.

Even a straightforward person like An Ran immediately understood what was happening.

There was an ambush!

This Frenzy Demon Stone was bait they had laid, with the purpose of attracting people to steal and kill them.

Once he realized this, An Ran’s heart pounded. The sword light just now was incredibly powerful, definitely a sword move unleashed by someone in the late Transcendence stage.

If it were a normal fight, An Ran could still withstand it to some extent, but they were ambushed!

Under such circumstances, he would either die or be seriously injured!

“Son of a bitch, dare to ambush your chubby master?” An Ran was furious and pulled out his thick black stick, ready to find the ambusher.

“Heh, not bad. You actually noticed the trap.”

At this moment, a cold voice came from the front, and then they saw a middle-aged man with red hair appear.

He was full of killing intent. He must have taken many lives.

And as expected, his strength was indeed in the late Transcendence stage.

Jiang Xiaobai narrowed his eyes. The reason he had just spotted the issue was because he had detected a dangerous atmosphere. He immediately warned An Ran and pulled him away.

The way the man operated, this wasn’t the first time he had done such a thing.

“Your methods are not bad. Using bait to lure people here, kill them and take their goods, this gets Frenzy Demon Stones much faster than searching for them yourself.” Jiang Xiaobai said coldly.

“You’re not bad either, being able to spot the problem. Otherwise, this fatty would have been cut in half.” The red-haired man sneered.

AnRan was seething.

Speaking like this in front of him, did he not take him seriously?

“Damn it, it’s always your chubby master ambushing people, no one dares to ambush me. If I don’t crack your skull open today, I will take your surname!”

An Ran roared, and with a swing of his long stick, he charged forward.

Jiang Xiaobai didn’t idle either and directly took out the Abyssal Rainbow. At times like these, they needed to give it their all and kill the enemy as quickly as possible.

The longer the delay, the more likely it was to attract other people, which would not be good.

The two of them, one from the left and the other from the right, attacked the red-haired man, who laughed coldly, completely disregarding them. A terrifying power emanated from the scarlet sword in his hand.

“Ignorant fools. If you had chosen to run away under such circumstances, there might have been a chance to survive. But you dared to come up and ask for death. You are the first!”

The red-haired man snorted, “Die, all of you!”

The sword danced, producing flashes of sword light.

The brilliant glow broke out in the pitch-black night, and the sword energy, carrying a terrifying force, split a crack in the endless darkness. This gave a glimpse of his true strength.

An Ran didn’t dodge or avoid it, and his stick fiercely smashed the sword light. Immediately, the sword light shattered, and An Ran flew out.

The power was just too great.

But it was this hit that allowed Jiang Xiaobai to successfully ambush the red-haired man. Seizing the opportunity, he stabbed out, as fast as lightning.

Thunder sounded, and the star appeared in the black night like stars, lighting up the surrounding area for a hundred meters.

This was Jiang Xiaobai’s full-force attack without any reservations. When the red-haired man felt the attack coming, it was already too late to defend himself.

Just like that, the long sword fiercely pierced his throat.

Blood gushed out, and the red-haired man’s face was full of disbelief.

“How… how could this be? You’re only in the late Yuan Infant stage…” he said in shock before collapsing to the ground, dead.

Jiang Xiaobai was also surprised that he could so easily kill a man in the late Transcendence stage. He was overjoyed to realize his strength had greatly increased due to absorbing the fifteen billion high-grade spirit stones last time!

“Bastard, die!”

At this time, An Ran swung his stick down, smashing the red-haired man’s head into pieces.

“Damn it. Dare to ambush again? Let’s see if you can ambush now, you dog. You scared the hell out of me!”

An Ran kept thumping his chest. The danger he had narrowly escaped just now was terrifying even when he thought about it.
