Primordial Era: When a Good Guy Awakens a Morally Unethical System

Chapter 24, A Difficult Relief

Jieyin and Zhunti were standing guard by the ginseng fruit tree, listening to the commotion outside. When they saw Hongyun rush in, they were startled, because Hongyun's demeanor clearly indicated that nothing good was going to happen.

Sure enough, Hongyun rushed over and kicked each of them, yelling, "Are you two blind or deaf? Can't you hear what's going on outside?"

"Are you waiting for us to die out there so you can forcibly take the ginseng fruit tree?"

"Are you two out of your minds? If we die, and the ferocious beasts swarm in, you'll both be dead too, unable to even struggle!"

Zhunti quickly explained, "My brother and I have had our magic sealed by you. What else can we do in this situation besides go out and die?"

Hongyun kicked Zhunti again, this time right in the butt: "Still arguing at a time like this? Why aren't you going out to help? You're just waiting to die!"

Hongyun ignored the system notification sound, even though it was his favorite sound.

He grabbed Jieyin and Zhunti, half-lifting and half-dragging them out the door. Inside the barrier, he released the seal on Jieyin and Zhunti, then pushed the two of them out.

"Ah~" The guide had just stepped out when he was met with a ferocious beast with its mouth wide open. He screamed in fright before remembering to use his magic.

The ferocious beast was truly ugly, with five eyes growing vertically on its head, and its huge mouth could easily swallow Jieyin and Zhunti whole.

After barely escaping the jaws of the ferocious beast, they were then attacked by another one.

*Ding! 10,000 Morality Points have been credited to your account!*

Hongyun breathed a sigh of relief. Although Jieyin and Zhunti were no match for him, they were still considered experts in the prehistoric world. Moreover, their magic power had been sealed before, so they had been in a state of full energy, which was perfect for them to use now.

"Stop screaming! If you want to live, kill these beasts!" Hongyun shouted, activating the bead once again.

"Red Cloud Daoist, how dare you be a creature of the primordial world! You are ruthless, vicious, and shameless!" Zhunti cursed Red Cloud's actions while dealing with the attacks of the ferocious beasts.

Hongyun couldn't help but laugh: "You still have the nerve to call me despicable and shameless?"

Seeing that Hongyun was still bickering even in such a critical moment, Zhen Yuanzi glared at him angrily.

Hongyun sensed Zhen Yuanzi's gaze, pouted, and continued to give it her all.

Perhaps the ferocious beasts of Wanshou Mountain had all gone elsewhere, as Hongyun and his companions fought from day to night without any more ferocious beasts attacking them.

Jieyin and Zhunti coughed up blood repeatedly, and Hongyun was so pale that he could barely stand. Only Zhenyuanzi, who focused on defense and attacked less, was in relatively better condition.

"We need to get rid of these corpses quickly, otherwise the smell of blood might attract more ferocious beasts." Hongyun was supported by Zhen Yuanzi, and looked at the mountain of ferocious beast corpses piled up in front of the door, looking troubled again.

"Burn them!" Zhen Yuanzi still had the strength to spare and planned to destroy all the beast corpses.

Jieyin and Zhunti, who had been slumped on the ground, immediately stood up upon hearing Zhen Yuanzi's plan to destroy the beast corpses: "No, no!"

Why?

After all, the two of them had helped, and Zhen Yuanzi's attitude towards them improved a bit.

Zhunti looked at the ferocious beasts with a pained expression and said, "The bodies of these beasts are all treasures. Their teeth are highly poisonous and can be forged into weapons. Their skin, flesh, and eyes are all useful. We can't burn them!"

Zhen Yuanzi glanced at the corpses of the ferocious beasts, then looked helplessly at Hongyun.
