Chapter 1961: Rescue 1

After searching the area, she made her way to a lofty cave.

Gu Chaoyan had a strong hunch that this cave served as their den. These creatures had been causing havoc for quite some time, but ever since their encounter with her earlier, they needed to be dealt with.

For now, she didn’t rush to attack. It was better to a.s.sess the situation and determine how many of these creatures there were before launching her offensive.

After a while, she noticed the return of two more of these creatures.

Since there was no one else present, they dropped their disguise and revealed their true forms, which resembled white monkeys.

Gu Chaoyan was intrigued. Did they consume some kind of transformative pill to a.s.sume human shape and harm people? Or did they possess the ability naturally?

However, from what she had just witnessed, it seemed their pill’s effects had worn off or their spiritual energy was insufficient to sustain their human appearances.

She had to admit, these creatures were quite cunning.

As she prepared to take action, she sensed some movement not far away.

What was going on?

Instead of acting impulsively, Gu Chaoyan decided to maintain her position and observe.

After the disturbance settled, a figure emerged.

To her surprise, it was a familiar figure.

Huaijin?

Why had he followed her all the way here?

This was the most bewildering part for Gu Chaoyan. Huaijin lacked any spiritual power, yet he had managed to single-handedly capture these white monkeys.

Inside the cave, there were indeed four white monkeys.

Gu Chaoyan was concerned that if these creatures became aware of Zhou Huaijin’s presence, it might lead to unwanted consequences.

To address her worries, she decided to visit Zhou Huaijin.

Their eyes met, but no words were exchanged.

Zhou Huaijin gently kissed her forehead and whispered, “I’ve investigated, and there are no additional white monkeys. The cave within a 500-meter radius can only accommodate four of them. They aren’t highly advanced, otherwise they wouldn’t have revealed themselves earlier. Due to their lack of strength, they live in groups. The four that returned earlier should be the entirety of the white monkeys here.”

Gu Chaoyan fell silent.

“So, now we can take action,” Zhou Huaijin said.

However, Gu Chaoyan felt concerned. Zhou Huaijin had no spiritual power, and there was a risk of him getting injured if he entered the cave.

She stopped him. “I’ll go.”

Zhou Huaijin gently shook his head. “No need.”

He then took out an item and smiled. “They’re inside the cave, which isn’t very large. I’ll use this.”

Curiosity sparked in Gu Chaoyan’s eyes. “What is it?” she asked, surprised.

“It’s something explosive. I’ll throw it in, and it will either kill or injure them. Then we can finish the job,” Zhou Huaijin explained with a smile.

A twitch of amus.e.m.e.nt appeared on Gu Chaoyan’s face.

She found it intriguing.

In the realm of cultivation, intelligence held significant importance.

Zhou Huaijin tossed all the items he had acquired from the Haitian Market into the deep cave.

And then..

There was a loud bang.

As the explosion reverberated, Gu Chaoyan witnessed the scattered limbs of the white monkeys, leaving no doubt in her mind that they had met their demise.

There was no need for further action.

A smile crept onto her face once again. Once the smoke cleared,

They were on the verge of entering the cave.

Their primary objective was to verify the monkeys’ demise and also to explore the cave for any other significant findings.

The moment Gu Chaoyan stepped inside, she couldn’t help but exclaim..
