Chapter 74 isn't about being immoral; it's about outsmarting the enemy!
Lan Yue was still in the early stages of using Earth Escape Technique, and she was slowly coming to understand it.
That giant monster was clearly of a high rank; one stomp from it could probably send them to their deaths.
Among them, the one with the highest cultivation level was the eldest brother, who was only at the Foundation Establishment stage.
This bunch of weaklings are supposed to fight against high-level monsters and defeat ten of them? Is that a joke?
Lan Yue never overestimated herself. She was very clear about her own strength. On the surface, she was at the Great Perfection of Qi Refining, but in reality, she couldn't win a fight against someone of the same cultivation level.
Because her cultivation level rose too quickly, she simply didn't have enough time to consolidate it.
Actually, she had just checked her panel and saw that she had accumulated some more sunflower seeds.
If she consumes all these melon seeds, she might even advance to the Foundation Establishment stage, making a direct leap.
However, she couldn't do that; it would be too obvious and difficult to explain to others.
She couldn't very well say that she had only been in the sect for less than a year and had already gone from a mortal to a Foundation Establishment cultivator, could she?
Even a rocket couldn't achieve this speed! Isn't it obvious to everyone that he's up to no good?
She needs to think of a solution.
"Then let's find other monsters to fight?" Li Bai's eyes lit up. He thought this idea was good. Fighting that giant monster directly would be suicide, wouldn't it?
"That works! Anyway, that giant monster is too lazy to move, so even if we run away, it won't even know!" Wu Tianyu also thought this plan was excellent; he could finally show off his skills!
A group of people were eager to get started and planned to make a big splash.
The elders outside burst into laughter.
"These kids finally realized it. I thought they were going to confront that high-level armored monster head-on."
The Sixth Elder was just waiting to see these guys make a fool of themselves, planning to give them a good talking-to and teach the little ones a lesson. He never expected that they would actually discover it on their own initiative.
"Let them gloat. Apart from this beast, the other beasts are no pushovers either," Elder Fang snorted.
"They should be shown the cruelty of the cultivation world, otherwise they'll just be eating melons all day long!"
Everyone couldn't help but laugh.
…
Green Qi Mountain.
A group of people were discussing how to deal with the monster.
"There are many demonic beasts in Green Jade Mountain, but the demonic beasts that can be kept here are all quite special. If you were to confront them directly, it would probably be very difficult."
While searching for people, Yunxi had already used telepathy to inquire about the situation at Green Qi Mountain with her father.
"Then we'll ambush them one by one, fight ambush battles, and specifically catch their little brats to beat them up!" Lan Yue clenched her fists, her expression showing no sign of guilt.
This is a clever tactic; how could it be immoral?
"Isn't it a bit too..." shameless to only beat up their little brats?"
Li Bai, sitting opposite him, felt uneasy and hesitated.
He's the senior disciple of Lingjian Peak, how could he do such a despicable thing?
"Senior Brother, you're mistaken." Lan Yue said matter-of-factly. "Think about it this way, how old are we?"
"Yunxi and I are both twelve years old, and Yuanshuo and the twins are only thirteen! Senior Brother, even though so many people call you Senior Brother, you're not that old either. Aren't we all just little kids?"
"Look, is it unreasonable for a little brat to beat another little brat?"
Lan Yue looked completely innocent.
"It does seem to make a lot of sense." Li Bai was almost convinced.
"Junior Sister Lanyue is right!" Yunxi said with admiration.
"Oh, it's nothing, it's nothing." Lan Yue waved her hand, blushing.
The little yellow fluffy ball: "..."
How could you be so shameless! Going out of your way to beat up that little brat, aren't you ashamed at all?! Truly shameless!
Of course, everyone already agreed that no one would pay attention to this little furball chattering away.
Finally, the little yellow fluffy ball could only turn its head away, showing its backside to them.
"There are many of us, so we can split up and act separately!"
The group of people whispered among themselves for a while, then dispersed and hid.
Wu Tianyu took out the purple beetle in his hand and made it fly higher and higher.
Wu Tianya then released several butterflies; pink and blue butterflies fluttered among the flowers, slowly moving away into the distance.
…
Before long, a small flaming lion pounced on several emerald butterflies, but every time the lion made a move, the butterflies would quickly flee.
The little lion ran further and further away with the butterfly, and soon ran out of the Flame Lion's territory.
At that moment, a large net descended from the sky, trapping the lion within it.
Immediately afterwards, a pit appeared out of nowhere, and the lion cub fell into it along with the large net.
The little lion let out a roar.
The distant group of fire lions seemed to sense something. As soon as they raised their heads, Lan Yue swiftly activated the silencing array she had set up beforehand.
Not long after, a bruised and swollen lion cub was released, and the pit had disappeared.
"Very good, we have successfully defeated a Flame Lion. Next, let's find another monster!" Lan Yue clapped her hands, keeping her accomplishment a secret.
The little furball sitting on Yunxi's shoulder was simply unbearable to look at; it just slumped on her shoulder the whole time.
"Okay, let's find our next target. This time we must use my Gu worms. I still have many flying Gu worms!" Wu Tianyu was extremely excited.
I never expected that an ordinary experience would be so exciting!
Outside of Green Qi Mountain.
The elders were at a loss for words. They could say the kids were clever, as they had indeed detected the trap and avoided confronting the high-level demon beast.
But these guys were too "clever," they secretly ganged up on the little monster cubs.
How utterly despicable must one be to do such a thing?
Elder Duanmu, who was behind them, turned his head very quickly.
These are definitely not his students! It must be their own problem!
"But if they really keep going at this speed, these guys will probably finish their mission before the sun even sets." The Sixth Elder laughed heartily.
"So today's actual combat results do not seem to have met our expectations."
Their original plan was to take these guys to the most docile high-level demon beast and let it beat them up and dampen their arrogance.
In a few days, they might discover the trap they set, and then go looking for other monsters, only to get beaten up again and again.
After all, most of the monsters kept here have their own groups, and defeating ten monsters is no easy task.
Who knew these guys would do something like this...
Seeing that these guys had tricked another little monster cub, everyone's lips twitched.
It's unbearable to look at, absolutely unbearable to look at!
Just as the elders outside had predicted, the group had completed their mission before the afternoon, beating up ten little brats in a row and getting familiar with the entire Green Jade Mountain.
This naturally provoked a series of angry roars. The group of demonic beasts were all furious, but they couldn't find anyone and could only roar helplessly.
"The mission was completed so quickly. Should we contact Elder Duanmu now to go out?" Wu Tianyu was in a great mood.
His Gu worms played a crucial role this time, luring so many young demon beasts!
Everyone looked over, but Lan Yue fell into deep thought.
Because she found it so easy, which was different from what she had imagined.
Logically speaking, every time the main characters go out for training, it's always a bloody battle, with everyone screaming in agony. And then, amidst all that screaming, they continuously improve their cultivation?
Lan Yue was still a little unaccustomed to the sudden and rapid resolution of the mission.
"Let me think about it." Lan Yue felt she couldn't just leave like this.
Although the mission was completed and their teamwork improved, it did not serve as a real training exercise. None of them used their true strength or gave it their all.
If they have to go through these kinds of trials every time, how can the main characters improve?
Lan Yue sighed. Sure enough, one shouldn't try to take shortcuts in everyday life.
If she ruins the main characters' group because of her, she won't be happy even when she's just watching the drama unfold.
"The real mission hasn't even started yet, don't rush, don't rush!" Lan Yue gritted her teeth, stamped her foot, and decided to go all out!
It's fine for her to lie down, but the main characters absolutely cannot lie down!
How can the main characters save the world if they just lie down and do nothing? The three realms are constantly in chaos, so how can she just lie down and do nothing in the future?
Lan Yue felt like she was caught in a strange cycle; she was clearly just someone who enjoyed watching the drama unfold!
Why should we consider such a serious question as the survival of all beings in the Three Realms?
She was absolutely furious.
