166 The Monster That Suddenly Appeared

Nie Yin looked at Chao Bai and then at Kong Rui. “You’ve never entered that cave?”

Kong Rui shook her head. “We tried to enter a few times, but we couldn’t reach it no matter what, so we could only give up. Just now, you led the guards in the direction of the cave, so we thought that you had found a way to reach it quickly!”

Hearing Kong Rui’s matter-of-fact words, Nie Yin couldn’t even flare up.

When he saw the cave just now, he was so excited that he forgot to ask the two of them.

Now that he had walked for a long time but couldn’t reach the cave, he asked the two of them instead. This made him seem a little too impatient. However, he could see the cave but couldn’t approach it, so he had no idea.

Kong Rui couldn’t help but sneer when she saw Nie Yin frowning in deep thought.

Nie Yin was actually so impatient.

Initially, she thought that Nie Yin was a shrewd and levelheaded person, but it turned out that he was just pretending in front of others.

After a while, Nie Yin looked in the direction of the cave again. “The few of you, go take a look! The rest of you, stay here with me and wait for orders!”

The guards who had been called out looked at each other. Although they were unwilling, they could only nod in agreement.

They raised the weapons in their hands and used them as tools to open a path. They shuttled through the overgrown forest and soon disappeared, but the cave was still the same as before.

“Where are those people?” Nie Yin’s expression turned even uglier. “Why are they gone?”

One of the guards suddenly shouted, “Could it be that this place is haunted?”

“What nonsense are you talking about?!” Nie Yin shouted and stopped the guard from disrupting the morale of the army.

The guard suddenly pointed in the direction behind Nie Yin. “There! There are monsters there!”

The guard’s eyes widened, as if he had seen a ghost. He was clearly deranged and couldn’t help but tremble. Then, he turned around and ran back the way he came.

Nie Yin didn’t turn around to check the situation. Instead, he waved the sharp blade in his hand and killed the guard in front of him.

“Anyone who disrupts the morale of the army will be executed on the spot!” Nie Yin said coldly, his eyes filled with ruthlessness.

The few guards who stayed behind looked at each other. No one dared to say anything else.

Nie Yin exhaled and looked behind him.

He had already heard the commotion behind him, but there didn’t seem to be any killing intent, so he ignored it for the time being.

As the future patriarch of the Nie family, he definitely couldn’t lose his cool like this!

However, when Nie Yin turned around to look at the thing behind him, he couldn’t help but choke.

Behind him, a monster with a tiger head and a bear body was running towards him with its arms open. The guards were already stunned on the spot, and none of them dared to move.

Kong Rui turned to look in Chao Bai’s direction and saw that Chao Bai was also surprised by the appearance of this monster.

It seemed that this wasn’t Chao Bai’s arrangement!

However, the strange thing was that this monster was actually running straight towards Nie Yin!

Nie Yin suddenly shot the bloody sharp blade in his hand in the direction of the monster. His cultivation level, which was already close to the first level of the Earth realm, was pushed to the max.

The sharp blade pierced through the air and shot towards the monster with an ear-piercing sound. The monster wasn’t afraid at all and continued running towards Nie Yin with its arms open.

As it ran, the monster actually tripped and the sharp blade slashed across the monster’s shoulder.

Nie Yin frowned and formed a seal with one hand to retract his weapon.

Unexpectedly, before the weapon could return, the monster had already arrived in front of him.
