Dragon Hidden in the Sky

Chapter 723 Monkey Mountain

When Xueying and Xueyun saw Ye Qing make this decision, both of them frowned.

"Don't worry!" Ye Qing said, "I won't joke with my life. I'll be very careful. If I sense anything is wrong, I'll run away immediately. I now have the combat power of a Star Lord, so I should have a good chance of escaping. If I don't have a chance to find this monkey wine, I definitely won't take the risk!"

Hearing Ye Qing say this, the sisters exchanged a glance, and then Xueyun nodded and said, "Since you really want to try, then I'll go with you!"

"Don't refuse me!" Xueyun said, "I'm very strong now, and my ice ability is effective against these monkeys! Also, I'll teach you a method to conceal your aura later. It seems you're concealing your aura by strengthening your ability. Those monkeys have a close connection with the world, so if you use your ability to conceal your aura, it will be easy to be detected."

"Okay!" Ye Qing nodded.

As he spent more time with her, he gradually forgot about what happened to Xueyun before. This woman was actually quite righteous!

The three of them walked down the river and soon returned to the cave.

After tidying up inside the cave, Ye Qing found a few not-so-small water jugs.

These things are all provided, after all, they need water in the wild to survive.

After putting the water bottle into his backpack, he explained the situation to Su Liuyun and the others.

Then he learned the method of concealing his aura that Xueyun had taught him. He learned things very quickly, and after mastering it, he went out with Xueyun.

Soon, the two arrived at an area where the blood monkeys were active, and every now and then some monkeys would come to the water to drink.

Ye Qing and Xue Yun carefully crossed the river, then hid on a tree trunk and observed carefully!

As Ye Qing observed, he discovered that these monkeys were indeed very intelligent. As night fell, these monkeys would even carry some water containers, which were quite simple, mostly just tree trunks with grooves or similar objects.

After they collect water, they venture deep into the mountains and forests.

Ye Qing and Xue Yun followed the monkeys' tracks cautiously. As night fell, they approached a not-too-high mountain peak, where most monkeys would venture.

As they got closer, they heard a series of creaking sounds coming from the mountain peak.

This mountain seems to be the main base of these monkeys!

At this moment, at the foot of the mountain, on a tree trunk, Xueyun and Yeqing were squatting together.

Although night had fallen, it didn't affect the two of them much. They could clearly see the road ahead!

Xueyun frowned slightly and said, "The number of blood monkeys in this place seems to be much greater than we thought. I feel we should give up; the risk is just too high!"

"Don't rush, you're already here!" Ye Qing smiled and said, "You stay here and wait for me. I'll sneak up here alone under the cover of night!"

"You!" Xueyun frowned.

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. You just stay here and cover my retreat!" Ye Qing tightened his backpack on his back and said, "I'll go in and check the situation. If I've stolen the monkey wine, I'll escape immediately, and you stay here and cover my retreat!"

Xueyun hesitated for a moment and said, "Then you... you must be very careful. I'll remind you again, these monkeys are very smart, and they are very cruel. If they find you or catch you, you will be tortured terribly!"

"I know!" Ye Qing nodded, then took a deep breath and, taking advantage of the darkness, concealed his aura and jumped up one tree trunk at a time.

As Xueyun watched Ye Qing disappear from her sight, a hint of worry appeared on her pretty face.

……

Ye Qing continued walking along the mountain forest, and before long, he had gone deep into the forest.

After walking for a while, he discovered something. He found that the intelligence of these blood monkeys far exceeded his expectations. In the mountains and forests, there were small structures made of piled stones everywhere, which looked a bit like small rooms, seemingly for shelter from the rain.

"His intelligence is indeed very high!" Ye Qing thought to himself.

Monkey calls echoed through the mountains and forests from time to time. Ghost Master knew exactly how many Blood Monkeys were up there. If he could kill them all, he could probably earn a lot of points!

However, judging from this scale, the king of these blood monkeys must be extremely powerful. Even if a superhuman came here, it would probably be very difficult for him to face these blood monkeys!

Ye Qing was only there to steal things, so he naturally had no intention of fighting these blood monkeys.

As he walked up the mountain forest, he also discovered something.

There seemed to be a hierarchy among these blood monkeys. The further he went up the mountain, the larger the buildings became, and the larger the blood monkeys were!

"Damn it, even among the same race, there are different classes. Is this the law of nature? No one can escape it?" Ye Qing said with a sneer.

He carefully made his way up the mountain. It wasn't very high, but it took him two or three hours to climb before he finally reached the top. Once he was close to the top, Ye Qing saw a huge cave!

At this moment, in front of the cave, the ground had been hollowed out, and many monkeys were jumping up from the bottom of the mountain from time to time, pouring water into the hollowed-out well-like object.

Inside the well, a huge, blood-red monkey lay, its face displaying a look of contentment.

"Damn it!" Ye Qing cursed. This monkey is really something else, it's actually hiding over there taking a bath!

"This must be the Monkey King!" Ye Qing said thoughtfully.

Nearby, there were many monkeys squatting in various places, many of them holding fruits. They showed the fruits to the monkeys one by one, and those chosen would enter the cave behind.

Those who are not chosen will simply leave!
