Chapter 1450 - Demonic Items

Translator: Exodus Tales  Editor: Exodus Tales

Hua Niang had already told Zhao Fu everything about this treasure map. She had obtained it by chance and she could not confirm if there really was a treasure trove. It seemed that there were ten or so copies of this treasure chest, so she warned Zhao Fu to be careful.

Zhao Fu kept this in mind and cautiously headed to the location of the treasure trove. There was a big mountain here, below which was a small town called the Demon King Town.

It was said that there was a powerful Demon King sealed within the mountain. That Demon King was said to be extremely terrifying and loved to eat people. The big mountain was a forbidden area for the town, and those who went there would disappear, so no one dared to go there.

Hearing this, Zhao Fu decided to cautiously head to the mountain.

After stepping onto the mountain, Zhao Fu’s sharp senses noticed traces of demonic qi rising up from the ground. Even though he was not sure if there really was a treasure trove here, there was definitely something containing large amounts of demonic qi here.

A few wild beasts ran at Zhao Fu from the side, and Zhao Fu casually sent out a few sword lights and killed them.

These wild beasts’ eyes were red and looked quite savage. Their bodies gave off faint demonic qi, and they had most likely been demonified by the demonic qi.

Zhao Fu did not pay much mind to them because they were quite weak. He took out the map and started to look for the entrance to the treasure trove, and he soon found a hidden cave.

This cave was under a mountain stream, and if he had not been looking around carefully, he would not have been able to find it. There was a lot of demonic qi within the cave and it was completely dark inside, giving off a hair-raising sensation.

Zhao Fu now became more careful because he found signs of other people coming here before. There had been people who had arrived before him.

Zhao Fu did not want anyone else to obtain the treasures, so he did not hesitate and entered the cave.

“Roar! Roar! Roar…” Demonic creatures charged out with terrifying power and ferociously rushed at Zhao Fu.

Zhao Fu felt that they were octopus-like creatures and had skinny bodies. Their eyes were red and gave off faint light, and they had two tentacles that had bone spikes at the end of them that could be used to attack.

Zhao Fu’s expression was calm as he held the Sadistic Killing Sword and walked forwards, sending out sharp blood-red sword light.

After being hit by the blood-red sword light, the demonic creatures gave off pained howls and split apart. Black blood sprayed everywhere; under Zhao Fu’s sword, they were unable to resist at all. Even if they attacked with their tentacles, they were unable to touch Zhao Fu at all and were all slashed apart.

Soon, all of the demonic creatures rushing out had been cleared out by Zhao Fu and Zhao Fu felt quite disappointed. These demonic creatures were so weak, meaning that the things here would not be too valuable.

After all, the more valuable the treasures were, the more powerful the monsters guarding them would be. These demonic creatures evidently were not very strong, but it could also be because he was too strong.

Zhao Fu continued onwards and found some bloody traces. These did not come from demonic creatures but from a group of people. There were many bloody marks, meaning that a few of them were injured.

Seeing this, Zhao Fu felt much more at ease. People who were injured dealing with monsters like these would be quite weak as well, and they would not be a match for him. There was no need for Zhao Fu to be overly cautious, so he increased his speed.

Following this, Zhao Fu came to a large space that was a few hundred meters wide. The walls were all made of black rock and there were many demonic creatures’ corpses everywhere, giving off a dense bloody smell.

There was not anything here; anything of value had most likely been taken by the group ahead of him. Just as Zhao Fu was about to continue onwards, some noise sounded out from behind him.

A group of people walked out, seven in total. There were four men and three women. Of the four men, one looked valiant, one had a gloomy and cold aura, one was quite muscular, and one was a young boy.

Of the three women, one had a voluptuous figure and a seductive aura, one had white skin and had a gentle aura and seemed like a big sister, and one was a young girl who seemed quite domineering.

The demonic creatures had been killed by the first group and Zhao Fu had dealt with the remaining ones, so this later group had been able to easily make it here.

“Did you kill those demonic creatures? Also, what treasures did you obtain? Hand them over,” the domineering young girl pointed at Zhao Fu and said loudly.

Zhao Fu slightly frowned, seeming quite displeased.

The valiant-looking young man who seemed to be the leader hurriedly said apologetically, “My Junior Apprentice Sister is quite spoiled; please don’t mind her, brother.”

The young girl unhappily pouted because she felt that there was no need to be afraid of Zhao Fu who was by himself. Moreover, he had definitely obtained something, and all they had to do was snatch it.

The big sister-like woman stopped the young girl from saying any more because she could tell that Zhao Fu was quite dangerous and could be much more powerful than them. If they started fighting, their side would most likely lose.

Zhao Fu also had an idea. It would be better to follow behind the first group and then snatch everything they had obtained. However, he was also worried that there were exits from which they could leave; if that was the case, he would have waited for nothing. After thinking about it, Zhao Fu decided not to pay any mind to these people and continue onwards.

This attitude caused the group to feel quite dissatisfied, and the gloomy-looking young man said, “This person is too full of himself; does he think we’re people who can be casually offended?”

The domineering young girl said angrily, “We should have killed him just then and taken what he had. That way, we wouldn’t have to be annoyed by him.”

“That person’s very strong and we might have lost. It’s best not to offend him,” the valiant-looking young man said with a serious expression.

“Mm, I think things are better this way,” the big sister-like woman said.

Hearing her agree, the valiant-looking young man looked at her happily, while the woman turned her face away, turning a bit red. They seemed to like each other but had never made things clear.

“What should we do now? We came for that treasure trove but if that person takes everything good, conflicts are bound to happen,” the muscular young man suddenly said, breaking the mood. Everyone else agreed – they could not just hand over the treasures to someone else, and the two sides would definitely fight, unless that person was incredibly powerful.

The seductive woman said, “We should follow him for now. With him killing the monsters ahead, we won’t face any danger. That way, we can also scope his strength. If he finds something good, we’ll wait for an opportunity to act.”

Everyone else agreed, and they followed Zhao Fu through the passageway.

Zhao Fu naturally sensed the group of people following behind him. A trace of a cold smile appeared on his face, but he did not mind too much.
