Divine Seal: I am the Demon God Emperor's beloved granddaughter

Chapter 11 Cutting out the roots
The Bright Moon Swamp is located near Bright Moon City, within a small forest, which is named Bright Moon Forest because of its geography.

Bai Xi and Long Haochen arrived quickly because the two ten-year-olds were childishly playing a game of seeing who could arrive first. Neither of them wanted to be the loser, so they chased each other incredibly fast.

"Let's stop for a moment and eat something to replenish our energy."

Just as they entered the Bright Moon Forest, before they even reached the swamp, Bai Xi suddenly called for a stop.

"it is good."

Long Haochen obeyed Bai Xi unconditionally.

The two skillfully used whatever was available to catch a rabbit, picked some perilla and other plants as seasonings, and started a fire to roast the rabbit.

"How long do you think it will take?"

Long Haochen flipped the rabbit over and asked in a low voice.

"Just when we were eating rabbit."

Taking a deep breath of the aroma of roasted meat, Bai Xi gave an affirmative answer.

"Then they must have died a terrible death, disturbing your meal."

The two men weren't talking about when the rabbit would be roasted, but rather when the two men following them would come out and attack them.

They all agreed that it would happen during meals.

And that was exactly what happened. The rabbit had just been roasted and was being cut in half to prepare for a bite when the annoying footsteps began, accompanied by extremely arrogant laughter.

"Haha, I'd like to see who can protect you this time."

"You two little bastards are really bold. You just offended someone, and you still dare to act alone."

"Let's see how I teach you a lesson."

"Uncle, do you have some misunderstanding about acting alone? There are two of us."

Bai Xi responded to the two burly men who finally appeared in front of them while munching on a roasted rabbit.

These two men were none other than the bearded brother they had just killed in front of the Adventurers' Guild.

They had initially been shouting that they should pay with their lives, but Li Xin, who had arrived, stopped them.

However, they didn't go far. After realizing that Li Xin had separated from them, they followed her.

Bai Xi and Long Haochen had already discovered their clumsy tracking, but they hadn't exposed them yet, wanting to see when they would make their move.

"Quick-witted and sharp-tongued, he still has time to eat even when he's about to die. He probably wants to die well-fed so he can go on his way."

The malice in the big man's eyes was almost tangible; he picked up his weapon and slashed at them.

"We can't become gluttons, but you might become a starving ghost."

Bai Xi stood up, continuing to gnaw on the roasted rabbit in one hand, while drawing a heavy sword with the other and hurling the still-burning fire at them.

One wielded a heavy sword, while the other blocked with a shield; Mars did not harm them.

However, Bai Xi's sword was already in front of them while they were dodging the sparks. The heavy sword had no edge, but if the force was sufficient, it was faster than a sword with an edge.

Neither of the two burly men could withstand Bai Xi's ordinary sword swing. They both took two steps back, their hands gripping the swords numb from the shock.

"XiXi is right, you might as well just starve to death."

Adhering to the principle of not wasting food, Long Haochen, who had just finished eating rabbit meat, swung his sword at the two of them with both hands.

The two burly men were at the second tier, level eight and the third tier, level two respectively, both stronger than Long Haochen.

However, Long Haochen can easily make up for the difference in spiritual power with his agile movements, rich combat experience, and superior skills.

The brother and sister each took on one of them, and soon defeated the two burly men who seemed far superior to them.

"Please let us go, just let us go like we're nothing."

"Don't kill us! We were just joking." "As long as you don't kill us, we'll give you anything you want. From now on, we're yours to do anything, even serve you like cattle to repay your kindness in sparing our lives."

Seeing that they were about to lose, the two burly men begged for mercy.

If it were an ordinary person, seeing them crying and begging for mercy like this, they might have softened their heart.

But Bai Xi only wanted to say, "A person who can bend and stretch, and has a resilient mentality, will surely become a great threat and should not be allowed to live."

As he spoke, he gave one of them a sword, ending his life.

Upon seeing this, the other person immediately became more assertive.

“I didn’t beg for mercy. It was my eldest brother who said I was begging.” “I have many good brothers. If you dare to kill me, they will definitely avenge us.”

The weaker one tried his best to appear fearless and spoke to Bai Xi.

“He shows no remorse, is stubborn and unyielding, and is intolerable to Heaven; he should be executed.”

After saying that, he delivered another fatal blow.

The two burly men who were killed: ? ? ?

Are you alright? You're going to die anyway, so why are you saying so much? Just kill us already.

We almost thought we were going to survive.

Did they give us hope, only to leave us in despair?

"We killed three people in one day! This operation was quite an eventful one!"

Looking at the two freshly made corpses in front of him, Long Haochen said with some emotion.

Before today, they had only killed some low-level magical beasts, but had never killed a human.

However, after killing so many Warcraft players, I've actually gotten used to killing other people.

Perhaps it's because in their eyes, these three people are worse than beasts.

"Xixi, what's wrong with you...?"

Seeing Bai Xi suddenly stop and start groping around on the corpse, Long Haochen didn't understand what she was doing.

"Chenchen, have you ever heard of murder and looting a corpse?"

Bai Xi stopped what she was doing and looked up at Long Haochen.

Long Haochen shook his head blankly.

"We don't steal the bodies of the murderers, lest we benefit them. If we defeat them, their wealth will be our spoils. If we don't steal it, someone else will. Even a small mosquito is still meat; we're sure to find some valuables on people like them."

After speaking, Bai Xi had already pulled out a money pouch.

Upon opening it, one finds thirty gold coins and a crystal core from a third-tier magical beast. The crystal core can be exchanged for a considerable sum of money.

So, Long Haochen was also tempted and touched another corpse, successfully obtaining roughly the same amount of money from it, presumably after it was divided equally.

"Actually, if you don't mind the trouble, or if I know how to forge weapons, I can also recycle their weapons. That's all money!"

Bai Xi looked at the three heavy swords and one shield on the ground and said with some emotion.

"Uh, that's not necessary."

He knew Bai Xi had a penny-pinching streak, but he didn't know she was this greedy. Long Haochen suddenly felt a bit of pressure. How much money would he need to earn to satisfy the desires of such a money-grubber?

"Then I'll listen to you. It'll be good to let the later ones have a taste of success too."

Bai Xi said that she was also giving Long Haochen a lot of face.

The two continued walking into the swamp deep in the forest.
