"That’s perfect. It’s a classic case of finding something without effort after long, fruitless searching," said Ye Yunfei.
At this moment, the young woman leading the pack of black beasts had already moved into the distance. Every time those black beasts trampled on the earth, the ground shook violently, making it seem as if the entire world was trembling along.
"The strength of these Earth Yin Beasts is considerable. Each one possesses power at the Deity level. It’s truly unexpected to find so many Deity-level creatures in this remote and nameless Small World.
It's a good thing they haven't run loose before, otherwise they would have become a disaster for the Eighth Void," Hun Lao remarked.
"Their strength is roughly equivalent to Primary or Intermediate Void Gods, nothing special," Ye Yunfei observed after sensing the black beasts and then spoke.
Next, Ye Yunfei took a step forward, his form shifting, and arrived instantly at the young woman’s side.
"Are there really Cold Iron God Pearls in this world?" Ye Yunfei asked.
"How did you suddenly catch up to me?" The young woman, caught in her panicked flight, was startled to hear Ye Yunfei’s voice. Then she discovered he was already at her side, leaving her quite shocked as she voiced her question.
"Enough idle talk. Tell me, are there Cold Iron God Pearls in this world? If you give me the answer, I can save your life," Ye Yunfei said.
Ye Yunfei could see that the girl’s energy reserves were severely depleted. Clearly, she had just been through a fierce battle, evident from her tattered clothes and multiple wounds.
"What? You can save my life?
You’re overestimating yourself! You’re just a Primary Void God. Your strength might not even compare to mine.
Three of these Earth Yin Beasts chasing me have strength at the Intermediate Void God level; even I am no match for them. How could you possibly save me?
You must have a death wish!
Fine. Don't blame me for your own suicidal choices. You followed me on your own; I didn’t drag you into this," the young woman retorted after hearing Ye Yunfei’s words, rolling her eyes disdainfully.
She saw Ye Yunfei was merely a Primary Void God and had no intention of taking him seriously.
"Rest assured. As long as you can tell me if there are Cold Iron God Pearls in this world and their location, I can save your life," Ye Yunfei said calmly.
As soon as the words left his mouth, he stretched out a palm and swept it backward with tremendous force.
Boom!
Ye Yunfei’s palm continuously enlarged, transforming in an instant into a colossal, sky-supporting hand that unleashed terrifying physical strength.
With a loud thud, one of the black beasts behind them was sent flying like a cannonball fired from its barrel.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The Earth Yin Beast that Ye Yunfei had sent flying crashed into a distant mountain peak, instantly reducing it to scattered dust and leaving nothing behind.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The black beast continued to crash through the distance, and within less than two breaths, it had smashed apart over twenty mountain peaks. Those mountains it collided with simply exploded and vanished into nothingness.
"What?!" The young woman, seeing Ye Yunfei effortlessly defeat a black beast as if swatting away a fly, was utterly shocked.
"How is this possible?
That was an Earth Yin Beast with Intermediate Void God-level strength! You sent it flying with a single palm—that’s an instant defeat!
Hasn't it always been said that this Eighth Void is very weak? How can there be a monstrous freak like you?
Are you, like me, also from another void?" The young woman was both startled and pleased.
Seeing the power Ye Yunfei displayed, she seemed less frightened of the Earth Yin Beasts behind her than she was moments ago.
"So this lass came in from another void outside, she’s not from our void," the Golden-Horned Dragon Silkworm exclaimed.
"I’ll say this one more time: tell me where the Cold Iron God Pearls are. If you tell me, I can save you. Otherwise, I’ll leave right now," Ye Yunfei said impatiently.
"You're too despicable! In this critical moment, you're actually taking the opportunity to threaten me—that’s profiting from others' misfortune!
First, hurry up and kill all those Earth Yin Beasts behind me to vent my anger," the young woman said.
"If you won’t talk, then forget it." Ye Yunfei turned and left, instantly covering a great distance in a flash.
"Hey, how can you be like this? Alright, alright, I’ll tell you. Is that good enough?" Seeing Ye Yunfei about to walk away, the young woman was greatly alarmed and hurriedly shouted out.
"Speak," said Ye Yunfei, stepping back once and returning to the young woman’s side.
"I'm a girl, you know! How can you treat me like this? It’s too much!" the young woman complained.
"Hmm?" Ye Yunfei’s face darkened.
"There really are Cold Iron God Pearls in this world. They are in the dwelling place of these Earth Yin Beasts. There are at least dozens of them there, and all possess power at the Deity level.
I originally planned to sneak in quietly, take the pearls, and leave. Who would have guessed I accidentally alarmed these beasts? So they've been chasing me for the better part of the day," the young woman explained.
"Dozens of Earth Yin Beasts, you say? Good. Lead the way; we'll go right now," Ye Yunfei said.
"Right now?
But there are dozens of Earth Yin Beasts! With just the two of us, we definitely can’t defeat them.
If you really want those Cold Iron God Pearls, we need to plan carefully and see if there’s any way to sneak in and steal them quietly," the young woman exclaimed, startled.
"No need for such trouble. Just take me there directly," Ye Yunfei said.
While speaking, Ye Yunfei suddenly made his move. With a palm strike as swift as lightning, he sent an Earth Yin Beast flying. In less than a single breath, all the Earth Yin Beasts chasing the young woman were swept away.
The entire process seemed incredibly effortless, as if he were merely swatting away a few flies.
"So strong!" Witnessing this scene, the young woman was so astonished that her small, cherry-like mouth hung open wide enough to fit a large duck egg.
"Alright. Now take me there," Ye Yunfei said calmly.
"Fine, I’ll take you.
But if those Earth Yin Beasts surround us, you have to protect me and stand in front of me," the young woman said.
"Those Earth Yin Beasts won’t get the chance to surround us.
Not to mention a few dozen Earth Yin Beasts, even a few hundred would be nothing worth mentioning," Ye Yunfei said indifferently.
Not to mention Ye Yunfei’s own strength, those hundreds of Deity-level puppets alone would be more than enough to deal with those Earth Yin Beasts.
"So domineering!
And also super cool!" A flicker of admiration actually appeared in the young woman’s eyes.
"You're so young, seemingly about my age, yet you're this powerful. Hey, become my master and guide my cultivation, okay!
Over the years, my dad has always scolded me for not making progress, saying that I’ve relied entirely on family resources to barely push myself into the Primary Void God realm and that my talent is unimaginably poor.
You’re so young and yet so powerful; you must have some method. Teach me!" the young woman said to Ye Yunfei.
"Enough nonsense. Take me to find the Cold Iron God Pearls!" Ye Yunfei said with a frown.
However, Ye Yunfei could tell that this young woman was not a treacherous sort. Her nature was kind and pure, especially evident earlier when she deliberately led the Earth Yin Beasts away in another direction. That action had left Ye Yunfei with a favorable impression of her, which was why he was being patient. Otherwise, Ye Yunfei would have long since resorted to force.
