Cultivation : I'm an Ancient Giant Bear-Chapter 320 - 303: Swindling, Trickery, and Deceit
"Instead, it’s better to guard Xiong Wu’s rear. This piece of territory is very important. If he manages to return alive, but the territory is left in ruins, Bupu, Bu Er, Old Niu, Old Pig, don’t look at me like that, this is simply the reality!"
Xiong Shiliu said helplessly. What he said was indeed the most suitable option, yet these guys were treating him like a thief. He was a victim too.
"Wait, where did that guy go just now? Damn, he’s escaped!"
Xiong Shiliu, Yuan Bupu, Old Niu, and the others exchanged glances.
"Gentlemen, we must make a decision quickly. Just think about it, does Xiong Wu trust us more, or outsiders?"
Xiong Shiliu was almost on his knees, begging.
"Fine! Then let’s investigate the situation first. If Cherry Steward really entrusted me with managing the territory, we can decide what to do next!"
Yuan Bupu decided firmly.
This made Wang Wu, secretly directing the scene, breathe a sigh of relief. It wasn’t easy for him.
The next steps were simple.
Because Cherry truly recommended Yuan Bupu as the steward, although no one knew how the two of them had aligned.
And the five hundred old and weak Demon Soldiers within the territory were even less reliable; they didn’t even know where to start if they wanted to spill the beans.
Moreover, he had already set things up in advance for insurance.
Perfect!
Wang Wu leisurely walked away.
What was left was simple. Yuan Bupu temporarily took over as the territory steward, giving everyone something to do.
Of course, even if they doubted, so what?
With a Third Grade, two Fourth Grades, and two Fifth Grades, it couldn’t just be wasted like that.
Things proceeded as Wang Wu had anticipated. Yuan Bupu and the others easily found the Mountain Patrol Seal, heard the ’message’ from the little maid, and questioned some of the older Demon Soldiers nearby, finding indeed a Demon Soldier Captain named Wa Bupu, though it seemed he had fled hastily not long ago.
After some deliberation, they ultimately decided to help Xiong Wu on the frontlines by guarding the territory.
Yes, they were good friends.
Wang Wu had prospered, and they were too embarrassed to align with him. When he seemed to run into trouble, naturally, they wanted to help in whatever way they could.
However, Wang Wu needed more.
That night, he seized an opportunity and cornered Xiong Shiliu.
"But, but the frontlines collapsed, did you escape back here?"
Xiong Shiliu was shocked when he saw Wang Wu and nearly lost his composure, no longer retaining his former calm demeanor, unperturbed even if the mountain crumbled before him.
But this might also be a facade.
"I need you to do something for me." Wang Wu looked at him quietly.
"Wha-what? First of all, I won’t kill innocents indiscriminately anymore, don’t even think of forcing me, I don’t want to pretend to be you again! Either kill me or let me be!" Xiong Shiliu was very agitated, bordering on madness.
"Do you want to cultivate a third Demon Pill?" Wang Wu got straight to the point.
The next second, Xiong Shiliu quieted down, his gaze suddenly dangerous and sharp.
After a long while, he rasped with a bitter smile, "You win, I really am ambitious, I even deceived myself, but I can’t deceive you. What do you want me to do? Turn back into the bad guy and ignite Unbreakable’s fighting spirit? I know, among all of us, the only one you see potential in is Unbreakable."
"You trust Old Niu and Old Pig, but they lack aptitude. Bu Er is too naive, Niu Xiaocao is just an extra, only Unbreakable—my Unbreakable—whether it be in spirit or character, potential or vision, is an excellent choice!"
"If you want to compete for the Southern Wilderness Right Demon Emperor, then you do need him, I understand. I will fully cooperate with you. He’s my only good brother; I’ve wronged him once, I can’t do it a second time. Rest assured, I don’t need a third Demon Pill. Leave the benefits to Unbreakable. My life is worth nothing, it doesn’t matter."
