Ren Qi glanced at Xu Xinghe and Yang Mei.

Both of them needed the bodies of the tarnished. Ren Qi was not surprised. After all, they had shown their desire for the bodies of the tarnished.

However, the bodies of the tarnished were useless before and were needed by Xu Xinghe and Yang Mei now. The changes made Ren Qi a little absent-minded.

Then, Ren Qi said directly, “Divide the body of the tarnished into three parts. You can take one each.”

Ao Xing and Han Wu obviously had the idea of using the tarnished to improve the strength of their clansmen, so Ren Qi planned to leave a portion of the corpses of the tarnished for Ao Xing and Han Wu.

“Thank you,” Yang Mei looked at Ren Qi and said softly.

To Yang Mei, the corpses of the tarnished were still very important.

Ren Qi then turned his gaze to Yang Mei and asked, “How did you get such powerful strength? And those unconscious people, what’s their situation?”

The desolate hunter team led by Yang Mei had clearly found the path that they should take. Those who could transform into huge figures and those with high mobility and attack power worked well together.

Their current combat strength was probably even stronger than some of the new Tier-9 lords.

It was just that their durability was low.

However, for the desolate hunters, this was already very, very good.

Most desolate hunters were still hovering between life and death.

Hearing Ren Qi’s words, a complicated look appeared in Yang Mei’s eyes.

Then, Yang Mei glanced at Xu Xinghe and the others who were beside Ren Qi.

It was a secret that belonged to Yang Mei and the hunters she led. Ren Qi had once protected her, but Yang Mei didn’t trust the others.

Ren Qi saw this and said, “These are my closest allies. There’s no need to avoid them. If it’s really inconvenient, you don’t have to say it.”

After all, this was Yang Mei’s secret. Ren Qi didn’t want to pry. He was just a little curious.

Hearing Ren Qi’s words, Yang Mei raised her eyebrows and said directly, “Actually, it’s not inconvenient. Do you still remember the secret technique I gave you before?”

Ren Qi nodded. “It’s the secret technique of eating demonic meat to cultivate. I know. The side effect is to reduce your lifespan.”

Initially, Li Tianlan and the others were curious about the secret method of eating demonic meat. However, they lost interest when they heard about the reduction in lifespan.

After all, if it weren’t for the desolate hunters who didn’t have territories or troops, who would choose to exchange their lifespan for combat strength?

Yang Mei continued, “Later on, I perfected this secret method in the battle with the monsters. It can better absorb the power of the demonic meat and convert it into my own strength. However, it will reduce my lifespan even more. Moreover, the attack needs to be combined with a special breathing technique. There is also a long interval between attacks.”

Ren Qi nodded, a hint of understanding flashing through his eyes.

Yang Mei’s attack method had already revealed this point.

“Then, what’s the situation with those people whose bodies can expand?” Ren Qi continued to ask Yang Mei.

Hearing this, Yang Mei’s eyes revealed a hint of reluctance. Then, she said, “After perfecting this secret technique of mine, although my strength will increase very quickly, not only will the side effects be greater, but the requirements for the person who uses it will also be higher.”

“In other words, if the person who uses it is not talented enough, there will be problems.”

“Those people are all people who were not talented enough. Forcefully using the secret technique caused their bodies to collapse and nearly made them lose their lives.”

“Later on, when we met these tarnished, they accidentally ate the corpses of these tarnished. They discovered that they could resist the collapsing of their bodies and slow down the collapse that way. Moreover, they could obtain the means to expand and obtain even stronger power.”

“However, after possessing this power, they would fall into a deep sleep every time they used it. They needed special people to protect them. Every day, they would only be awake for an hour. The rest of the time, they would fall into a deep sleep.

“When they reached the battle state, after their bodies expanded, their minds would fall into chaos again. The people who needed to protect them would fight with them.”

At this point, Yang Mei paused and continued, “I gave them a name. The people who expand their bodies are called Knights, and the people who protect them are called Rangers.”

“After knights become warriors, only the rangers who protect them day and night can let the violent knights fight sober.”

“And when the rangers attack, the gaps will be left for the knights to protect the rangers to rest and recover their strength.”

“This is the desolate hunter organization I founded, Rangers and Knights.”

The desolate hunter’s experience was often tragic. Yang Mei knew this, so when she learned that those who were not talented enough would cause the body of the person who used the secret technique to collapse… she rejected those who were not talented enough to join her desolate hunter organization.

However, when she learned that swallowing the tarnished could alleviate the collapse of their bodies and even give them the ability to expand their body, thus obtaining super combat strength, Yang Mei began to accept the desolate hunters who were not talented enough.

However, hunters who were not talented enough had to become knights if they wanted to join.

As a knight, they only had one hour of waking up every day. The rest of the time, they were either sleeping or fighting.

However, there were still a large number of hunters who chose to join Yang Mei’s organization.

Because they had no other choice.

One hour of waking up every day or the risk of facing death. There were still people who chose the former.

Rangers and knights also came into being.

Hearing Yang Mei’s words, Ren Qi and the others showed a hint of admiration in their eyes.

No matter what, as desolate hunters, it was admirable for Yang Mei and the others to be able to walk such a path.

“What are your plans in the future? If you don’t have any goals, you can continue to stay in my territory,” Ren Qi looked at Yang Mei and said.

After seeing their strength, Ren Qi had the idea of taking Yang Mei as his own.

If he could let Yang Mei develop a large number of hunters, creating knights and rangers, or even form a team of hunters, her combat strength would be very good.

Yang Mei seemed to have seen through Ren Qi’s thoughts. She looked at Ren Qi and said softly, “Lord Ren Qi, the most important thing for us knights and rangers is to trust each other. We are destined not to develop on a large scale.

“And the way we knights and rangers increase our strength also means that we will not be able to stay in the same place for too long.”

“So, there is no need to stay. However, I still have the communication device. If you need any help, you can contact me at any time.”

Hearing Yang Mei’s words, Ren Qi’s eyes revealed a hint of regret. However, he also knew that Yang Mei was right.

The purpose of the desolate hunters was to search for monsters and obtain demonic meat to increase their strength.

And now, Yang Mei’s rangers and knights must be searching for traces of the tarnished.

After all, knights who ate the tarnished would obviously be able to obtain more powerful strength.

After chatting for a while more, Xu Xinghe and Yang Mei stood up and prepared to leave.

Outside, according to Ren Qi’s orders, Elise had already divided the bodies of the tarnished into three portions.

Xu Xinghe and Yang Mei each took one portion.

Ren Qi looked at Yang Mei, who was carrying the bodies of the tarnished, and his eyes flickered.

Compared to Xu Xinghe, Yang Mei and the others obviously didn’t have any large-scale weight-bearing capacity or conditions.

However, Ren Qi saw that Yang Mei and the others had bags with storage space in their hands.

It was similar to the soul storage bag given to him by the Dark Elf Queen. It could store items.

Ren Qi saw that Yang Mei had stuffed nearly a hundred earth dragon corpses into the bag before changing to the next bag.

It seemed that the bag’s capacity limit should be a hundred earth dragon corpses.

Ren Qi saw that there were 10 of these bags in Yang Mei’s hands.

Moreover, it was obvious that Yang Mei valued these bags very much.

After all, they didn’t have any territory. These storage bags were their guarantee of carrying resources and items.

Seeing Yang Mei and Xu Xinghe swiftly collect the corpses of the tarnished, Ren Qi thought for a moment and said, “In five days, I will explore a place that requires the full strength of a Tier-9 entity. If you are interested, you can bring Tier-9 experts to me.”

Exploring the forbidden land would surely lead to a fierce battle. It would be good to increase their combat strength.

Yang Mei and Xu Xinghe nodded slightly at Ren Qi’s words, but they didn’t say anything.

After all, they might not be able to gather much of the full combat strength of a Tier-9 entity.

After collecting the tarnished’s corpses, Yang Mei and Xu Xinghe quickly left the succubus territory.

Seeing Yang Mei and Xu Xinghe leave, Ren Qi returned to the territory.

Li Tianlan and Li Linan also left quickly. Li Linan didn’t forget her mithril cannons and took them all with her.

Before Li Tianlan and Li Linan left, Ren Qi ordered some mithril cannons from Li Linan.

Now that the tarnished had appeared, the mithril cannons had a good chance of being used.

After all, compared to the Glazed Light Cannon, the mithril cannons were more cost-effective.

After sending Li Tianlan and Li Linan away, Ren Qi’s gaze fell on the Dark Elf Queen.

The Dark Elf Queen’s face was a little pale. After all, she had been injured in the battle with the giant golden angel.

She had used too much strength just now, causing her to look a little uncomfortable.

“Alright, if there’s nothing else, I’ll head back first,” The Dark Elf Queen said softly to Ren Qi.

Hearing this, Ren Qi stepped forward and grabbed her small hand.

“Your Highness, judging from your expression, there must be some hidden danger in your body. Don’t be in a hurry to go back. I’ll ask Maggie to take a look at you.”

Feeling the warmth from Ren Qi’s palm, the Dark Elf Queen’s face immediately turned red.

She retracted her hand at lightning speed and pretended to be calm. “Lord Ren Qi, please have some self-respect. There’s nothing wrong with my body.”

Then, the Dark Elf Queen turned around and left.

At this time, Tina stepped forward and said, “Your Highness, Master is also concerned about you. You said that you were busy with Master’s matters, and now there is a hidden problem in your body.”

“If Master doesn’t help you solve the problem in your body, is he still human?”

Ren Qi’s mouth twitched a little, but he still stepped forward and said, “Although Tina’s words are a little rough, she’s not wrong at all. Your Highness, you should rest here and let Maggie take a look at you.”

Hearing this, the Dark Elf Queen hesitated for a moment, and then she was dragged into the territory by Tina, who was being ‘hospitable’.

At this moment, Feng Ya woke up. The room was a little stuffy, so she came out to take a walk and happened to meet the Dark Elf Queen.

“Mother!” Feng Ya pounced on the Dark Elf Queen with a face full of joy and jumped into her arms.

Seeing the Dark Elf Queen’s surging waves[1], Ren Qi couldn’t help but lick his lips.

He didn’t know if the Dark Elf Queen’s lips were softer or if Feng Ya’s lips were softer.

Cough Cough!

What was he thinking about?

It must be Tina releasing her seductive power again.

Sigh, being in a succubus’ nest, even a pure person like him had begun to let his imagination run wild.

Hugging Feng Ya, a smile appeared on the Dark Elf Queen’s face.

“How do you feel now?” The Dark Elf Queen looked at Feng Ya and asked with concern.

Fengya raised her head and said, “I’m fine now, Mother.”

“It’s good that you’re fine.” The Dark Elf Queen looked at Feng Ya and touched her hair.

Feng Ya poked her head out of her arms and looked at Ren Qi. “Brother Ren Qi, I heard that you were the one who brought the Elemental Elf Queen here and helped me get through the crisis. Thank you, Brother Ren Qi.”

The Dark Elf Queen looked at the sweet smile on Feng Ya’s face, and her body froze.

This guy has really charmed Feng Ya!

Thinking back to the scene where she kissed Ren Qi and sucked out his essence energy, the Dark Elf Queen’s heart suddenly started beating.

For some reason, an extremely stimulating forbidden feeling suddenly rose in the Dark Elf Queen’s heart, giving her a fright.

“Mother, why is your heart beating so fast?” Feng Ya asked curiously in the Dark Elf Queen’s arms.

“Ah, w-well, I just fought. Maybe I haven’t recovered yet.”

For some reason, the Dark Elf Queen was panicking.

Tina, who was standing beside her, looked at the her and laughed to herself.

“Your Highness, you were injured earlier. I told you to take a good rest here. Look, your heart is beating fast, right?”

Hearing Tina’s words, Feng Ya hurriedly said, “Mother, you are injured? Quick, follow me to my room and take a good rest.”

“Sister Maggie is very good at healing. Let Her take a look at you.”

The Dark Elf Queen was pulled by Feng Ya. She had no choice but to head toward Ren Qi’s territory.

Tina came to Ren Qi’s side. She bumped her small shoulder against him and said, “Master, the Elemental Elf Queen and Yuna, as well as the Dark Elf Queen and Feng Ya, are all in your territory now. How is it? Isn’t it exciting?”

Ren Qi coughed lightly when he heard that. He looked at Tina and said seriously, “What is exciting? I don’t understand what you are talking about. I really don’t know what is going on in that little head of yours.”

As he said that, Ren Qi followed Feng Ya. He did not mean anything else, mainly because he was afraid that Feng Ya would get lost.

Tina looked at Ren Qi’s back and muttered, “What am I thinking? What can I think about two mother-daughter flowers? Tsk, master, just pretend. I don’t believe that you don’t have any thoughts at all.”

While muttering, Tina followed.

How could she not get involved in such an interesting matter?

Feng Ya pulled the Dark Elf Queen into her room and pressed her onto her bed, letting her rest.

The Dark Elf Queen could not persuade her, so she could only lie down quietly.

However, the Dark Elf Queen did have some internal injuries, and she needed to rest.

Ren Qi also brought Maggie in to check on the Dark Elf Queen.

Ren Qi didn’t want to take the opportunity to do anything, but he was really concerned about the Dark Elf Queen’s health.

After all, the Dark Elf Queen’s injury had a lot to do with him.

Feng Ya, who was at the side, became a little shy. After all, her mother and her beloved were in front of her, making Feng Ya feel somewhat docile.

It was as if she was bringing her beloved to meet her parents.

Although the scene was a little inconsistent, Feng Ya couldn’t stop thinking about it.

Lying on the bed, the Dark Elf Queen looked at Feng Ya and sighed in her heart.

She knew that Feng Ya was completely captivated by this guy.

However, the Dark Elf Queen had already accepted this fact before.

After surviving for so long, she found herself becoming more and more desperate for affection.

This was also one of the reasons why she doted on Feng Ya so much.

Therefore, when she found out that Feng Ya was showing affection towards Ren Qi, the Dark Elf Queen did not think about the estrangement between humans and dark elves. Instead, she let Feng Ya feel this affection on her own.

However, after the kiss with Ren Qi, the Dark Elf Queen found that her emotions were not quite right.

She tried hard to suppress the little flame that should not have appeared in her heart.

Maggie checked the Dark Elf Queen’s condition and then said, “There are only some internal injuries. They did not hurt the origin, but you have to rest well for a few days.”

Feng Ya hurriedly said, “Mother, since Sister Maggie said so, you can rest here and accompany me. I haven’t been with you for a long time.”

The Dark Elf Queen wanted to leave, but after hearing Feng Ya’s words, her heart softened and she nodded in agreement.

At this moment, a figure appeared at the door.

It was Yuna!

Yuna looked at the scene in the room and recalled what Tina had told her before. She took a deep breath.

Then, a sweet smile appeared on her face as her gaze landed on Ren Qi.

“Brother Ren Qi!”

Her sweet voice instantly filled Feng Ya’s room.
