Chapter 545: Chapter 559: Ambush on the Qilin Species

As Beasts Valley began to gather cannon fodder, other major powers also started making their moves, all preparing for what would occur three hundred years later.

However, Beasts Valley had to pause their actions due to the reason concerning Old Man Beiming.

“Toad, where can we find suitable hunting grounds for exotic species?” Mu Can was utterly unfamiliar with the deserted regions and could only ask the Toad.

“Three hundred li to the west, there’s a gathering spot for exotic species where a Qilin Species resides, known as the Qilin King,” replied Toad, who, having been disciplined by Wang Cai, understood his situation and obediently followed Mu Can’s orders as his only way to survive.

Furthermore, the blood contract was absolutely tyrannical; if the Toad died, Mu Can wouldn’t be affected, but if Mu Can died, the Toad would undoubtedly perish.

This was also Old Man Beiming’s intention; having such a creature with decent strength and wisdom by Mu Can’s side, some measure of safety for Mu Can was guaranteed.

At least, with the Toad’s warning, Mu Can would completely avoid places akin to forbidden lands.

“Qilin Species?” Mu Can’s eyes lit up. Qilins were rare Divine Beasts, but those in the deserted areas were certainly not ordinary.

“Yes, the Qilin Species are exotic creatures left from the primordial era, rumored to be descendants of a Great Demon from ancient times. Although Great Demons are a branch of the Demon Clan, they have always declared themselves a separate lineage,” Toad croaked, explaining.

“You Toad, if it’s too dangerous there, we’ll throw you out first!” Wang Cai glanced at Toad.

Wang Cai, unaware of the master-servant contract established between Mu Can and Toad, was simply thinking of guarding against any possible harm the Toad might do to Mu Can.

“Boss, we’re all in this together now. Since the Valley Master has ordered me to follow the master, I am now the most loyal servant to the master,” Toad had truly accepted his fate.

Even the Valley Master would bow and scrape before Old Man Beiming, and now his life was in Mu Can’s hands.

Even the toughest would have to bow, especially since Toad wasn’t particularly resolute in will.

“Humph, just so you know,” Wang Cai didn’t need a reason to discipline Toad; without Wang Cai’s teaching, Toad wouldn’t have understood so quickly.

Consider this; stumbling while walking could lead to a beating, and not answering Mu Can’s questions promptly would lead to another round of beating.

Yet, Toad never resisted; although he seemed fearless of death on the surface, he was more afraid of dying than anyone else.

“The Qilin Species resides there for cultivation, and his power is around the Peak of the All Things Realm, but those protecting him are all Heaven Rank experts,” Toad honestly relayed all the information he knew.

He truly feared Wang Cai, worried that Wang Cai would throw him into the fray without a second thought.

“Heaven Rank, Heaven Rank is going to be troublesome,” Mu Can felt it was problematic; with his current strength, he might barely manage against the All Things Realm, but against Heaven Rank, self-preservation would be an issue.

“How about we use an Array to ambush him?” Wang Cai immediately understood Mu Can’s intention, realizing that without other tactics, they had no chance of defeating the Qilin Species.

“Do we have an Array?” Toad was genuinely concerned for Mu Can’s safety; if Mu Can couldn’t survive, neither could he.

“I know plenty of things, what’s an Array to me!” boasted Wang Cai, despite being significantly weaker than Toad, he still impudently referred to himself as Toad’s elder brother.

“Toad, do you have any good ideas?” Mu Can thought about it and asked. To handle this matter well, he really needed to rely on the Toad’s strength.

“I don’t have any good ideas, but I have a talent that can shield the Divine Sense of Heaven Rank, but it only lasts for three minutes.” Toad made a scraping sound. Now that it was his turn to exert his strength, he would not be stingy. Protecting Mu Can’s life was akin to protecting his own.

Toad was still hoping that one day Beiming Elder would come back and set him free.

“Woof woof woof! This is good, at that time I will set up a Teleportation Array, and teleport directly in front of that Qilin Species and abduct him.” Wang Cai vigorously wagged his tail, and a plan was thus formed.

Mu Can thought about it and felt that this plan was feasible, but Toad was filled with fear inside. After all, that was the renowned Qilin Species. If they really abducted the Qilin Species in front of a group of Heaven Rank, then it’s likely the entire uninhabited area would be thrown into chaos.

“That’s settled then. Wang Cai will set up the Array, I and Toad will teleport in to abduct the person, and immediately teleport away after capturing him, then let this Transmission Array self-destruct.” Mu Can thought it over.

This plan really was feasible, even if the Qilin Species was extraordinarily talented, he was still just at the All Things Realm, and would definitely be suppressed when facing those of Heaven Rank.

“If something goes wrong at any stage, the two of us will be facing an onslaught from a group of Heaven Rank,” Toad said, no longer croaking but looking at Mu Can with concern.

To him, this action plan was akin to courting death, if within three minutes they couldn’t subdue the Qilin Species, one could imagine their predicament.

“Fortune favors the bold, don’t worry.” Mu Can nodded his head.

The reason he was so eager to move against the Qilin Species was simple: he needed to increase his power as quickly as possible.

“Alright then.” Toad nodded, preparing to make his move soon.

Wang Cai set up a Big Formation around the camp of the Qilin Species, a formation that could teleport Mu Can directly to the center.

“All set, be ready to make your move, just crush the Jade Pendant to teleport away,” Wang Cai instructed before he disappeared beside Mu Can.

“Where’s Wang Cai?” Toad, curious, lacked Beiming Elder’s power and couldn’t tell that Wang Cai’s true identity was actually an Artifact Spirit.

“Wait for him to appear, then subdue the Qilin Species straight away, activate your talent, and then crush the Jade Pendant in your hand,” Mu Can instructed.

The plan changed to instantly teleport in, subdue the Qilin Species, and then take the Qilin Species into his own New World.

An absolutely flawless plan, but the most crucial part of the plan was dependent on Toad’s ability to use his strength to subdue the Qilin Species in one go, then to take him into his own New World, and the last step was to crush the Jade Pendant in hand to teleport to another location.

Even those protecting the Qilin Species could not expect such a method of stealth attack from the Void.

No more delay.

Mu Can and Toad instantly disappeared from the spot, and the next moment, appeared right where the Qilin Species was cultivating.

Toad opened his mouth, and dark mist rolled out, casting the entire camp into darkness.
