Chapter 232: Stealing Monkey Wine, Black Scale Demon Ape

Ying Wu Dao grit his teeth, his face turning ashen.

Although he felt extremely aggrieved, the current situation was stronger than he was, so he could only suck it up and accept it.

"That's more like it."

Jiang Tianheng nodded with satisfaction, then turned around, summoned a spirit ring of flames, and began to take action.

Zhou Chen, hearing the commotion outside, almost burst out laughing.

These two old fogies were truly great actors, each hiding eight hundred schemes in their hearts.

While the two were fully occupied with the battle and unable to spare a glance, he reached out and grabbed the wine jar directly.

[Ding! The Host has intercepted Ying Wu Dao's Opportunity: Imperial Rank Low Grade Ghost Ape Monkey Wine! Triggering ten-fold return. Congratulations to the Host for obtaining: Imperial Rank Medium Grade Monkey King Wine!]

The moment the System's notification sounded, a wine jar that was golden all over with even more complex and exquisite runes appeared in Zhou Chen's hands.

Most miraculously, the fragrance of the Monkey King Wine became even more intoxicating; Zhou Chen felt like he was about to get drunk just from one sniff.

He without hesitation quickly stored both wine jars into the System space.

In the next moment, a mischievous smile appeared on Zhou Chen's face.

He raised his hand and tossed a Sound Transmission Talisman onto the stone platform inside the nest, then turned and left.

Just then—

"Roar—!"

The Ghost Ape seemed to sense something and suddenly turned its head, staring intently at the direction of the nest.

It sensed it! The scent of the Monkey Wine had vanished!

The Ghost Ape went completely mad.

It recklessly tried to charge toward the two men, sending Ying Wu Dao flying dozens of feet with a single punch.

"Damn it!"

Ying Wu Dao spat blood as he flew backward, shattering several stone pillars.

Where was its wine?

Where was the Monkey Wine it had treasured for three hundred years?!

"Roar—!"

The Ghost Ape looked up again, its bloodshot eyes sweeping over Ying Wu Dao and Jiang Tianheng.

It must have been these two humans!

No, there were three!

The Ghost Ape remembered clearly that a young man had followed them through the teleportation array just now.

These three people must be together!

"Roar, roar, roar!"

The Ghost Ape completely lost its mind and went into a total rampage.

"Jiang Tianheng!"

Ying Wu Dao roared: "Stop holding back and give it your all! This beast has gone berserk!"

"Cut the crap, I know!"

Crimson Soul Burning Heaven!

Thousands of Miles of Ice!

Jiang Tianheng no longer held back and began to fight with all his might.

The combined might of two Great Emperors was staggering.

In the Void Realm, terrifying flames and chilling frost intertwined, surrounding the Ghost Ape in the center as the Crimson Ghost Ape suffered their frenzied attacks.

Although the Ghost Ape was very powerful, it gradually became unable to hold its own against the siege of two Great Emperors.

Most of the fur on its body was scorched, and several deep wounds were carved into its chest by ice blades, with blood flowing wildly.

"Roar!"

The Ghost Ape roared in pain, but the blood also completely triggered its ferocity. It swung the Stone Spiked Club in its hand frantically, its attacks becoming even more suicidal, completely disregarding its injuries as it smashed down at the two men.

It had only one thought—to kill these wine-stealing thieves.

Boom!

Rumble!

The battle lasted for nearly an hour.

The Crimson Ghost Ape was covered in blood, its aura withered, and it finally seemed unable to hold on.

"Roar…"

It let out a low growl, turned, and fled.

"Chase it!"

Ying Wu Dao was about to give chase but suddenly stopped.

He turned to look at Jiang Tianheng, his heart filled with wariness.

This old thing wouldn't take the Opportunity to backstab me, would he?

Jiang Tianheng also stopped, staring at Ying Wu Dao with equal caution.

Having lived for so long, both were as shrewd as foxes, worrying about what would happen if the other person stabbed them in the back at a critical moment.

They glanced at each other, seeing the wariness in each other's eyes.

"Forget it."

Ying Wu Dao snorted coldly: "The beast is already heavily injured and can't run far. Getting the Monkey Wine is more important."

"Just what I was thinking."

Jiang Tianheng nodded.

The two walked toward the nest simultaneously, but they kept their distance, guarding against each other.

When they entered the nest and saw the empty stone platform, they were both stunned.

"Where is the Monkey Wine?!"

Ying Wu Dao's eyes widened.

"It was stolen?!"

Jiang Tianheng's face turned ashen.

Just then, Ying Wu Dao saw a Sound Transmission Talisman on the stone platform.

He grabbed the Sound Transmission Talisman and infused it with spiritual power.

A second later, a young voice came out:

"Old Ancestor, I have taken the Monkey Wine ahead of time as you instructed. This Disciple will take it back to the Family first. You must not let the Ying Family Old Ancestor find out!"

Ying Wu Dao froze in place.

This was… a Jiang Family Sound Transmission Talisman?

And this voice… it was clearly that Jiang Family Disciple who had teleported over with Jiang Tianheng earlier!

"Jiang Tianheng!!!"

Ying Wu Dao instantly exploded.

He turned abruptly, staring at Jiang Tianheng with bloodshot eyes: "You old thing! So it was all your conspiracy!"

"What conspiracy?!"

Jiang Tianheng was also dazed, but seeing Ying Wu Dao's murderous expression and thinking of the Jiang Clan youth he had brought in, a hint of guilt couldn't help but rise in his heart.

"You're still acting?!"

Ying Wu Dao grit his teeth, crushing the Sound Transmission Talisman in his hand: "The nine nether soul nourishing lotus was your trap, and you stole the Monkey Wine! You've been playing me this whole time!"

"Bullshit!"

Jiang Tianheng roared: "I have no idea what's going on! Someone must be framing me!"

"Still trying to talk your way out of it!"

Ying Wu Dao attacked directly, condensing a massive ice blade as thin as a cicada's wing in the Void Realm, which turned into a rainbow and slashed toward Jiang Tianheng.

"You're looking for death!"

Jiang Tianheng was also enraged, his surrounding flames surging as he met the attack.

Two Great Emperors actually began a frenzied life-and-death struggle in the cave, showing no mercy.

Saber Qi swept across, and flames surged.

Inside the cave, stone pillars were shattered, the rock walls collapsed, and the entire cave shook violently before completely caving in.

"Jiang Tianheng, today we fight to the death!"

Ying Wu Dao slashed out, splitting Jiang Tianheng's flame Spirit Shield in two.

"Ying Wu Dao, I'll take you down with me!"

Jiang Tianheng's eyes were also red as the flames turned into a Dragon, roaring as it charged toward Ying Wu Dao.

Both were fighting for their lives, every strike being a lethal blow.

Zhou Chen had long since quietly retreated to the teleportation array and fled.

But the moment Zhou Chen left—

An even more terrifying aura suddenly came from the distance.

The aura was so strong that it had actually reached the Emperor Realm Second Layer!

"What?!"

Jiang Tianheng and Ying Wu Dao both changed expression, turning their heads abruptly.

The rock wall of the cave split open, and a massive black shadow emerged from the crack.

It was a Yao Beast with an even larger build, its entire body covered in pitch-black scales, its eyes bloodshot, emitting a pressure that could destroy heaven and earth.

Emperor Realm Second Layer Yao Beast—Black Scale Demon Ape!

And behind it, the Crimson Ghost Ape that had escaped earlier was kneeling on the ground, letting out a shrill cry as if it were filing a complaint.

"It's over…"

Ying Wu Dao's face turned pale.

Jiang Tianheng was also dumbfounded.

The Black Scale Demon Ape looked at the two, a bloodthirsty light flashing in its eyes.

It opened its mouth, and with its jaws moving, a low and raspy voice said: "Humans, did you steal my son's Monkey Wine?"
