I Am A Notorious Hidden Boss In The Alternate World
Chapter 336 - Greed & Conflict"Of course, my source is reliable!" the spiky-haired young man argued, wanting to look good in front of the female disciples.
"My distant cousin works for a high-ranking government official in the Earth Federation. So there's no way my sources are wrong," the spiky-haired young man affirmed.
"I see…" the young man frowned.
He could not help but feel something was wrong with the words of the spiky-haired young man, who was an inner disciple of the Nine Sun Sect.
Forgetting the fact that the person could recall the exact family connection with his distant cousin, the news of the Dark Emperor's activities in Silvercove city shouldn't be wrong either.
"You're worrying too much."
The two female disciples from the Frozen Moon Palace and the male disciple from the Nine Sun Sect dissuaded the young man.
No matter what the young man said, it fell on deaf ears.
"If you're going to be stubborn, then you can always leave. There's no need to follow us," said the male disciple from the Nine Sun Sect.
"Yeah, you don't need to follow us if you don't want to." The two female disciples chimed.
The young man sighed, but he ultimately decided to follow the three disciples as they jumped the gates and entered Skylark Hills together.
Following the faint flow of spiritual energy, four disciples made their way up the hill, passing several luxurious houses along the way before they stopped some distance from the hilltop mansion.
"According to my senses, spiritual energy gathers here…" the spiky-haired disciple's eyes suddenly widened as he exclaimed, "Holy smokes! Are these all spiritual herbs?!"

They had never seen so many spiritual herbs in one place!
"Who is the owner of this place? How can that person have so many spiritual herbs?! That person probably wouldn't even notice if we just take a few, right?"
The female disciples revealed greedy looks.
If they could just take some and refine them into pills, there was a high chance that they could easily break through their bottleneck and step into the legendary Spirit Refinement Realm, becoming Transcendents with longer lifespans.
Gulp!
The spiky-haired male disciple of the Nine Sun Sect swallowed a mouthful of saliva, finding it difficult to resist the temptation.
"I think it is safe to take a few. There doesn't seem to be anyone looking…" the spiky-haired male disciple said while looking around.
However, at that moment, Fenriri opened her eyes and glanced down at the group of intruders with a silvery glint.
The four disciples from Ancient Sects immediately sensed the glance before raising their heads to look before they became vigilant under the silvery eyes watching them.
"Who are you? Are you the owner here?" the spiky-haired male disciple questioned.
"No!" Fenriri answered.
The young man frowned while the other three disciples sighed with relief.
"So it was just another thief attracted by the spiritual energy gathered here," the spiky-haired male disciple assumed before warning her, "I don't care if you were here first. Since we found the spiritual herbs, they are ours."
"You understand, right? There are four of us. You won't be able to beat us on your alone. So if you understand, then hurry up and get lost. We don't want the owner to realize too many spiritual herbs went missing."
Swoosh~!
Fenriri jumped down from the mansion and appeared in front of them with a serious gaze.
"You're not allowed to steal my master's herbs! Leave at once or be prepared to face the consequences!" Fenriri warned severely.
Her two ice claws were ready to attack.
The expression on the four disciples' faces suddenly turned stiff—not because they feared Fenriri's strength, but because they discovered her fluffy eyes.
"A wolf-girl!" the spiky-haired male disciples exclaimed with alarm.
The two female disciples quickly noticed the spiky-haired male disciple's expression was much more grave before one of them inquired, "Is there a problem with this wolf-girl?"
"Didn't I mention that the Dark Emperor made a base with furries in the Glacia continent? Those furries were wolf-people!" the spiky-haired male disciple stated.
The female disciples' expression immediately turned nasty.
"Then the owner of the spiritual herbs is the Dark Emperor…?!" they quickly realized before one of them exclaimed, "Not good! She already saw our faces and overheard our intent to steal the herbs!"
"We can't let her live! Otherwise, she will report back to the Dark Emperor!" the other female disciple immediately revealed a vicious look.
"Are you crazy?!" the young man, who had been unwilling to follow along from the start, roared, "We haven't done anything yet! Don't try to escalate the situation, and just leave as she said!"
Swoosh~!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe spiky-haired male disciple ignored the young man's warning and suddenly launched a sudden attack on Fenriri, drawing his sword in a quick flash.
"You're too naïve, Brother Wei! Given the Dark Emperor's nature, do you really think he will spare us?!" the spiky-haired male disciple said.
In that instance, Fenriri's gaze became cold.
Out of respect for her master, a human, she had refrained from killing other humans wherever possible.
However, she did not forget about the task given to her.
'Since you are looking for death, die!'
Ding!
Fenriri swung her ice claw and clashed the spiky-hair male disciple's sword before the force produced a repelling ring, followed by the sound of cracking bone.
Ka-cha!
"Brother Jiang!"
The female disciples quickly shouted as the spiky-hair male disciple by the name of Jiang Zhihao flew back with his sword arm flopping in the wind.
"Be careful! That wolf-girl appears to be at the same cultivation level as us, but her physical strength is tyrannical! She might be a body refiner or one of those Hunters!" warned Jiang Zhihao as he endured the pain of a broken aim. "Don't fight her head-on!"
The Frozen Moon Palace's female disciples quickly exchanged glances before they shot towards Fenriri from two different sides.
"Dammit!"
Wei Jin cursed before following up to flank Fenriri from behind as it was already too late for him to back out, now that everyone was involved.
In a short instance, Fenriri was surrounded from every direction as Jiang Zhihao rejoined the group and forced her into a disadvantageous position.
Even if she had high physical strength, she might not get out of this battle unscathed.
