Chapter 3553 The Bait

When Yan and Natalie saw the true face of the so-called stage ruler, they frowned. It was unsettling.

There must be some sort of reason as to why these black monkeys brought them to their stage ruler.

It was not for the first time that the Chief Flag Monkey had encountered the stage ruler. He knew that the Dark Nether Bugs were a kind of food that the stage ruler would not refuse, but it was a well-known fact that the Dark Nether Bugs were very difficult to capture.

The candles that were used to capture Dark Nether Bugs by the Insect Master race, or any other race for that matter, were all supplied by the Royal Monkeys.

He had been doing this for so many years, in order to make use of this stage ruler in case of a tricky situation.

"Stage ruler, I have worked hard to collect these Dark Nether Bugs. Please accept them," the Chief Flag Monkey said, bowing deeply.

"Well, tell me, what's your purpose? And why did you bring two Souls of Light?" The stage ruler's eyes fell on Natalie and Yan. As a purified being, he could instantly perceive that the two girls came from the Light Region.

Glancing indifferently at the two girls, the Chief Flag Monkey answered, "These two are also an offering from the Royal Monkey race."

The stage ruler sneered. "You want me to devour the Souls of Light? Well, it's better than nothing..."

When he finished speaking, he stuck his tongue out towards Yan and Natalie. The two girls shut their eyes tight, awaiting their deaths. They knew they were no match for such a powerful being.

Just as the stage ruler was about to devour the two girls, the Chief Flag Monkey suddenly cried out, "Please wait!"

"What?" A dangerous light flashed in the stage ruler's eyes. It peeved him whenever anyone stopped him from eating his food. The only thing keeping this insolent monkey alive was the fact that he had offered him Dark Nether Bugs for many times in the past.

"I offer these two Souls of Light to you, not for you to eat," the Chief Flag Monkey explained carefully.

Looking at the monkey in confusion, the stage ruler asked, "Then, what do you want to do?"

"These two are just bait. They will lure another purified being who is lurking around the Dark Region. I believe that you will be more interested in this purified being," the Chief Flag Monkey continued.

"Another purified being..."

Since he was one himself, the stage ruler of cour

Drugged one night by her ex-boyfriend, a mysterious man took advantage of her in an ecstatic night filled with sex.

To take her revenge, she married the man, and used him.

"As long as I'm alive, I'm still his legal wife, while all of you are just his mistresses."

She remained adamant even when he was involved in scandals with other women.

Eventually she stormed off after she learned that he had betrayed her again.But life brought her back to him a few years later, to his astonishment.

faction.

Both Natalie and Yan watched in horror, but there was nothing they could do since they were trapped in the array.

In a matter of seconds, the stage ruler devoured all the Dark Nether Bugs. Seeing he had eaten all the food, he sat down on the side of the swamp, eyeing the two girls curiously. "The Darkness Fruits in your bodies could only last for around six hours." Then, he smiled mischievously. "It seems the monkeys were under the impression that the other purified being would come by then."

"I don't know about that," Natalie replied coldly.

The stage ruler just smiled. No longer asking any other question, he waited patiently by the side of the swamp.

Three hours passed by.

The stage ruler's eyes rolled around in a bored fashion, then suddenly, he sat up vigilantly. Looking towards the distance, he let a smile creep on his face.

Without any warning, he opened his mouth and his tongue shot out into the darkness.

Yan and Natalie craned their necks to turn around to look at where the stage ruler was sticking out his tongue, but they couldn't see anything.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

The tongue stuck out then retracted, and once again stuck out, retracted...

This went on for a while. However, it was fruitless. On the contrary, bloodstains appeared on his tongue, which had obviously been cut by a sharp weapon.

Yan and Natalie exchanged confused glances.

They wondered who the stage ruler was fighting with. The newcomer seemed so powerful that even the ruler of a stage of the Other Shore couldn't seem to do anything about it, and was instead wounded!
