Pretending To Be A Boss-Chapter 647 - 53: Exploring the Domain of Senluo_2

Outside the tent, Yuan Wu was helping out as an assistant. Yuan Wu's ability was to turn matter inside out—like taking a spherical object and instantly flipping its inner layer to become the exposed outer layer.

This ability was highly destructive, but turned out to be quite useful for gutting and eviscerating.

Bai Mansheng watched this scene and thought to himself that this person really knew how to… make full use of things, or perhaps it was a case of overkill.

However, those who worked for Tang Xian were both willing to give and take a beating, so it wasn't her place to say anything.

Bai Mansheng was still quite objective, though. After giving it some thought, she realized she had also been talked into doing quite a few things by Tang Xian herself. For example, the Sea God Cult's High Priest—from a white snake that had never even been to the southern seas to becoming the High Priest of the Sea God Cult.

"According to what Tang Mang said, his kinsmen are actually Lei Xiao. If you really find Lei Xiao in the Realm of the Dead, what do you plan to do?"

"Clean them out."

These brief three words, it was unclear whether they were addressed to Yuan Wu, who was cleaning out the innards of the food beside him, or if they were a remark to herself, but Bai Mansheng still sensed the ruthlessness Tang Xian harbored towards her enemies in her bones.

"That's his kin."

"Have you ever seen a Lei Xiao with skin as black as cold iron and horns like a demon on his head? He's not Lei Xiao, and Lei Xiao has nothing to do with him. He's now one of mine, a revenger as well."

As Tang Xian spoke, her knife was skillfully removing unwanted organs.

Bai Mansheng paused before saying:

"What about the fox clan?"

Tang Xian's hand hesitated for a moment.

Enemies merely had differing standpoints, but traitors were unforgivable.

Bai Mansheng continued:

"I remember you saying that taking back the fox clan for Qing JiuYu was one of your main plans."

Whenever Qing JiuYu was mentioned, Bai Mansheng's expression would become somewhat unnatural.

Tang Xian shook her head, saying:

"The attitude of the fox clan toward Qing JiuYu and Xiaojiu needs further clarification before I decide anything."

"Why not bring Qing JiuYu along?"

"Too noisy."

There was an implied meaning behind these words, and Bai Mansheng picked up on it. But she did not get upset, only replying,

"Lei Xiao might not be far from us now. Tang Mang might forgive Lei Xiao in his heart."

Tang Xian stopped cutting and said earnestly:

"There was once a movie about a guy who couldn't be killed no matter what. From a young age, he was subjected to all kinds of experiments by humans. Since his organs were inexhaustible and his life force was endless, as long as the information was locked down, studying his tissue could be done on the most valuable and expendable of test subjects.

But one day, the test subject escaped, becoming an outright anti-human element. The whole movie is about how he turns against humanity, and how the protagonist tries to stop him."

"He's not the protagonist?"

"Of course not. Despite the fact that this movie is an island nation's manga adaptation, such an anti-human element could never be the protagonist. His hatred for humanity has twisted to the point where even if they are his own kind, as long as they don't hate humanity, they must be executed. But who created all this?"

Tang Xian's hands resumed the thumping of chopping meat.

"You underestimate Tang's hatred for Lei Xiao. Reality is more exaggerated than stories. Do you remember when we first saw Tang, those bloodshot eyes and the aura of a malevolent ghost? Some hatreds can only be cleansed with the blood of your enemies."

Bai Mansheng didn't say anything more, and Tang Xian knew her intention, continuing:

"As for the fox clan, I will give them a chance, but the fox clan leader, it must die by Xiaojiu's hand or Qing JiuYu's."

...

...

At twilight, in the Realm of the Dead.

According to the intelligence provided by Ju Mang, Lei Xiao were mostly active before dusk, sleeping much earlier than other animals. This was knowledge unknown to Tang Xian, but with Ju Mang's notes, catching other myriad beasts had been much smoother, offering him a wider choice of strategy.

The mining area was dangerous at night, but the tide had turned.

At night, in the mining area, where Tang Xian was, the other creatures were the ones in danger.

Tang Xian called on Tang, this time without Bai Mansheng.

Because Bai Mansheng was too smart, always knowing what he was up to.

Scouting the Realm of the Dead was a rather mind-draining task.

Tang Xian and Tang walked side by side, maintaining a one-zhang distance, slowly moving through the vast general tree forest.

As before, even if the feedback from his sense of smell was very evident, Tang Xian would still turn over the soil or observe some trees while searching.

Tang just watched quietly.

"Lei Xiao are very fast; regarding this clan, you haven't told me much. Do you have friends among them?"

Since Bai Mansheng brought it up, Tang Xian also wanted to know Tang's own thoughts.

Mentioning Lei Xiao seemed to evoke more enmity than the long-eared ancient apes, and Tang Xian could distinctly feel a change in Tang's demeanor.

Anger brought bloodshot veins to his eyes, but they soon calmed down, and he just shook his head.

This simple action looked incredibly lonely.

"Tang Xian, Bai Mansheng, Xiaojiu, Yuan Wu, friends, no more."

"If all goes well, tonight we should find some clues about Lei Xiao."

Looking at Tang Xian, Tang said:

"The Owl King, very strong."

"Stronger than the two of us together?" Tang Xian asked.

After pondering for a moment, Tang shook his head and said:

"Can't compare."

Tang Xian was slightly surprised.

The Owl King wasn't actually an evolutionary step for Lei Xiao; it was simply the strongest among Lei Xiao.
