My disciples are all villains.

The monster hunting squad's combat experience was incredibly rich. Their movements were cautious and almost flawless.

Ye Wusheng had long heard that the monster hunting squad was outstanding. He had only met the captain, Cao Zechun, a few times and did not have knowledge about Cao Zechun. In fact, he had only chosen to cooperate with the monster hunting squad because he had no other choice. The Unknown Land was too vast; it was impossible for the reinforcements from the Ye clan to arrive on time. The only way to capture Lu Wu was to cooperate with the monster hunting squad. The plan was going much smoother than he had expected. He really hoped they would succeed. After all, it would benefit him if they failed. As the saying went, 'Common interests can unite people'.

Ye Wusheng watched as the members of the monster hunting squad flew in different directions as though they had a tacit understanding. Some of them flew to the right, some to the left, some went to the other side of the mountain, and some waited at their spots. All in all, their division of labor was clear and decisive; they had clearly done this many times.

"What are they doing?" Ye Wusheng was puzzled and curious.

Since Ye Wusheng could not figure out what the monster hunting squad was doing, there was an even lesser chance that Ye Cheng could figure it out. Ye Cheng only looked around blankly.

Cao Zechun, who was standing next to Ye Wusheng, looked at his people and said, "It's not going to be easy dealing with a beast emperor. We have to make sufficient preparations." He pointed below and continued to say, "My Second Brother is good at laying formations so he'll set up a formation nearby. Although it'd be more effective if we have more time, it's better than nothing…"

"My Third Brother is proficient in the beast language and sound techniques. He'll communicate with the fierce beasts nearby to help during the battle. Lu Wu has been here for a long time so I'm not sure if he'll have enough time to gather a large number of fierce beasts. Again, it's better than nothing…"

"My Fourth Sister is a great marksman; she's a Godly Archer…"

As soon as these words were spoken, the female cultivator, Fu Ruandong, turned around and winked at the two Ye brothers.

Ye Wusheng and Ye Cheng. "..."

In the Unknown Land, those who came here might not know everyone, but they knew the monster hunting squad. To be precise, most people knew the core members of the group: Cao Zechun, the captain; Xu Zhongxia, the second-rank Formation Master; Yu Wenqiu, the beast tongue expert, and Fu Ruandong; the fourth-rank Godly Archer. Apart from these four people, the other members were also talented individuals with unique skills. Their personalities were flamboyant and unrestrained. All of them were unique and had different quirks, but they had one thing in common: they liked taking risks.

The members of the monster hunting squad continued to fly around the three mountains in different directions. Each of them held a piece of black cloth in their hands, but Ye Wucheng and Ye Cheng did not know what they were for.

After a moment, the frail Yu Wenqiu flew back and said, "Boss, it's been confirmed that Lu Wu is resting in the mountains. We have two pieces of good news and one piece of bad news. Which one do you want to hear first?"

"The good news," Cao Zechun replied.

"The first piece of good news is Lu Wu is injured so his strength is greatly reduced. The second piece of good news is that there's a beast king to the north of this place. Boss, we're going to be rich this time!" Yu Wenqiu said with a smile.

Cao Zechun smiled faintly before he asked, "What about the bad news?"

"The bad news is that the beast emperor seems to have a master. In other words, there might be other cultivators nearby…" Yu Wenqiu said.

Cao Zechun stroked his chin and pondered on Yu Wenqiu's words.

Cultivators who dared to come to the Unknown Land were definitely not ordinary cultivators. Once the hunt started, they would definitely alert the cultivators nearby. Just because they liked the thrill of taking risks, it did not mean they were reckless.

"Keep an eye on the situation. Don't alert the enemies…"

"Understood." Yu Wenqiu flew away again.

Ye Wusheng remained silent on this matter. Instead, he pointed at the three mountains and exclaimed, "Lu Wu!"

Cao Zechun and the others looked up instinctively. They could see Lu Wu raising its front paws as it leaped up into the clouds.

"Get ready to act."

"Boss, we're ready!"

Cao Zechun waved his arm.

The cultivators rushed toward the middle of the three mountains immediately.

Boom!

"What's that?"

At this moment, the monster hunting squad finally noticed a person above Lu Wu. The person was brandishing a spear and launching countless energy spears. They watched as Lu Wu smacked that person down to the ground with a loud boom.

Cao Zechun's eyes widened in surprise as he exclaimed, "Someone's a step ahead of us?! Attack!"

"Understood!"

No matter how patient a hunter was, once they saw their prey was on the verge of being snatched away, they would inevitably feel a little impatient.

The members of the monster hunting squad flew high up into the sky and looked down.

Cao Zechun found the scene before his eyes shocking. He saw Lu Wu pressing a person down with its paw; the person could not move at all.

At this time, Lu Wu had already noticed the intruders' presence. When it raised its head to look at them, its eyes shone with killing intent. It spat out fiercely, "Damn… humans!"

Cao Zechun said in a clear voice, "Lu Wu, you can only blame yourself for being unlucky."

Lu Wu looked to the left and to the right and discovered there were cultivators around three mountains. It said contemptuously, "Just you… and these people?"

Even if a Venerable Master came, Lu Wu would still be confident. Where did this bunch of shrimps and crabs find the courage to confront it?

Cao Zechun shook his head. "Haven't you heard of the monster hunting squad?"

Lu Wu raised its paw that was holding Duanmu Sheng down.

Duanmu Sheng jumped up and grabbed his Overlord Spear. After patting the dust off his body, he looked up and said, "Scram!"

Duanmu Sheng was still not very familiar with Lu Wu. Therefore, Lu Wu was rather stunned when he stood in front of it as though he was helping it to chase the intruders away. It looked at Duanmu Sheng who was holding the Overlord Spear, standing tall and fearless, it suddenly saw the shadow of Duanmu Dian on Duanmu Sheng.

Cao Zechun raised an eyebrow and said, "Brother, you can't deal with Lu Wu alone. Why don't you cooperate with us?"

"Cooperate? Didn't you understand what I said?" Duanmu Sheng stomped on the ground and flew up into the sky.

Countless energy spears burst forth at the same time.

In just a blink of an eye, Duanmu Sheng arrived in front of Cao Zechun.

"Boss!" everyone exclaimed.

Bang!

An astrolabe suddenly appeared in front of Cao Zechun, forcing Duanmu Sheng back.

It was Xu Zhongxia's astrolabe. He said, "You really don't know what's good for you. We'll let Lu Wu tear you apart first before we make a move!"

Everyone nodded.

Realization dawned on Duanmu Sheng. These people thought he was here to kill Lu Wu as well. He landed on Lu Wu's head. He had a dignified air about him as he stood with his back straight. The purple dragons on his wrists glowed faintly as he called out indifferently, "Lu Wu."

"Young Master, what are your orders?"

"Kill."

"Understood."

Boom!

Lu Wu suddenly stomped on the ground with its four paws.

Cao Zechun frowned. "It has already acknowledged a master?! Retreat! Everyone, listen up! Retreat!"

Even Ye Wusheng was shocked by the way Lu Wu addressed Duanmu Sheng. After all, not many people in the world were capable of taming a beast emperor. No matter how he looked at it, he did not think Duanmu Sheng was strong enough to subdue Lu Wu. He wondered if it had something to do with the Great Void energy in Duanmu Sheng's body.

Ye Wusheng grabbed Ye Cheng and retreated as well. He reminded himself inwardly not to expose the existence of the Great Void energy.

Lu Wu descended.

At the same time, heavy snow began to fall as a bone-piercing cold blew from all directions.

Cao Zuchun retreated 1,000 meters. At this time, a one-foot-long staff had already appeared in his hand. He waved the staff, and a green energy burst forth.

The cold was instantly reduced by half by the green energy.

When Ye Wusheng saw this, realization dawned on him. Everyone assumed Cao Zechun was a powerful fighter, but as it turned out, Cao Zechun was skilled in healing!

Cao Zechun's move covered a large area, keeping the chill at bay.

Lu Wu swept its nine tails across the mountains.

Boom!

Boulders flew in all directions immediately.

Xu Zhongxia smiled and said, "Get into position!"

The forty cultivators quickly retreated. Since only a layer of frost covered their bodies and they were not frozen, their movements were not impeded. After all of them had gotten into their positions, they whistled.

"Fourth Sister."

"She's coming!"

The monster hunting squad's Godly Archer, Fu Ruandong, leaped into the air with a giant bow in hand. After pulling the bowstring back, she released her finger, sending countless energy arrows flying in the air.

Lu Wu leaped up high into the clouds again. "Despicable reptile!"

Lu Wu's powerful body turned in a circle. It retaliated by sending icicles out.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Fu Ruandong's energy arrows were blocked by the icicles. Not only that, but the icicles also landed on some of the cultivators' protective energy, causing their Qi and blood to surge as they spat out mouthfuls of blood.

Duanmu Sheng swooped down from the sky, arriving near the Divine Archer.

Fu Ruandong looked at Duanmu Sheng in confusion. "With such strength, how did he tame Lu Wu?"

Fu Ruandong raised her bow again and pulled the bowstring back.

Dozens of energy arrows flew out, forcing Duanmu Sheng back.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Duanmu Sheng felt his arms go numb. At the same time, the purple dragons on his wrists grew increasingly restless.
