Chapter 443 - Let's Share The Rings... What Ring?

Yan Hong, Hong Cai and Ren Liang had a sudden flash inspiration. Their expressions changed and they had a smile in their faces. But Yan Hong's smile was especially malevolent, his body releasing a baleful aura as he stared at David like that of a beast.

The four of them immediately grabbed more grade two herbs and grade three herbs until their hands were full and threw it straight at David.

"Please hold onto these for me, will collect them back when we get outside." Hong Cai requested. At least, he was a bit courteous.

David's face had turned incredibly ugly at this point. This people were just too overbearing and unreasonable. Just because he was weak, they thought they could bully him with their strength and numbers.

Having no choice, David caught the various herbs thrown at him and filled up his storage ring. This went in for a while minute until the storage ring was full.

Noticing this, the four of them slowed down with their herb picking and as they were about to stop, they saw David took out another storage ring and started filling it up.

The group of five people were momentarily surprised seeing David bring out another storage ring from within his robe.

The smile on their faces immediately widened. They hadn't expected David would have more storage rings with him and from the expression on his face, it was obvious he still had more storage rings with him.

"What great luck!" Hong Cai couldn't help but mutter in happiness, packing the herbs near him and tossing it at David, along with the others.

Lady Chyou was the only one who stood still at the corner. It was as though she pitied David and didn't want to bully him or there might be some other reason for her strange behaviour.

David could feel lady Chyou's gaze was on him. She seem to be scrutinising him, trying to figure him out somewhat. David wasn't bothered by her stare. Even if she had some sort of divine ability, there was no way she would be able to see through him since what he was hiding wasn't his mental energy, but his genetic strength. So obviously she wouldn't be able to sense anything even If he wanted her to.

This process went on for another 30 minutes yet, the cave started shaking slightly.

"What's happening?" The six of them gazed around the cave. The walls within the caves were shaking as though they were about to crumble.

Lady Chyou gaze changed slightly. "The cave has been holding on because of the energies produced by the herbs. Now that the herbs are dwindling, the cave will also collapse with it."

Listening to her explanation, the five students passed what they were doing.

"How much time do we have left?" Long Zhi asked.

"About three minutes to escape the cave but if you guys continue picking the herbs, I estimate you will have only have about 60 to 30 seconds before the cave collapses."

Lady Chyou then began to move towards the exit of the cave. "I'm leaving now, we will meet later if fate permits it." With that, she performed an incantation and then in a flash, she left the cave.

It was obvious she didn't want anything to do with what was going to happen when the exited the cave. As though she was scared or being cautious about something.

Except from David whose expression remain nonchalant, the other four people had frowns on their faces.

From the rumbling of the cave, there was not enough time to continue picking the herbs. And if they continued picking the herbs, there wouldn't be enough time to escape as the cave collapse would collapse on them, killing them instantly since they wouldn't be able to survive the collapse.

"What we've taken should be enough to gather contributions, let's get the hell out of here before it collapses." Hong Cai said nervously.

Long Zhi nodded his head in agreement. "Let's get out of here then. Hey kid, you go first, we will be behind you."

David blinked his eyes. He still couldn't figure out why they were calling him kid. Could be the fact that they seem older than him or maybe its because they assumed they were stronger than him.

Eighty percent of the herbs had been by the group, while most of them was with David. Placing the last storage ring inside the sleeves of his robe. David didn't argue with them as he knew that they were right. Due to the restrictions to his physical abilities, his speed wasn't enough to escape the collapse of the cave if he stayed to pluck more herbs, so he needed to leave now.

Moving quickly, the group of five ran out of the cave, a few moments later, they appeared outside of the cave, using the small hole on the wall.

In the next moment, there were multiple cracks at the wall of the cave.

BANG!

The walls exploded as rumbles and dust flew in all directions. The cave immediately crumbled over to the ground, shooting rocks in all directions.

The group of five hurriedly moved backwards from the collapse to avoid been hit by the shooting rocks.

The group stood aside as they watched. Thinking it was a pity they couldn't get the rest of the herbs out and now, it's been crushed by the rocks, there was no way the herbs would survive the collapse of the walls.

There was an every wave that blasted in all directions as the walls collapsed and although it's nothing harmful to the them, other students would be attracted by the energy blast and rush towards them.

If other people saw the five of them, it wouldn't be difficult to put two and two together and figure out the situation.

" The kid has nine full storage ring with him. I will take four, while the three of you share the remaining five." Long Zhi said indifferently.

The five of them had an immediate change of expression. "Don't push things too far Long Zhi. I agree that you are stronger than us, but don't take us for a fool.'" Ren Liang face darkened as he spoke.

"Hehe, I've always wanted to see if your dragon pillar can withstand my seven beastly transformation, I guess it's finally time to see." Yan Hong smiled wildly and his brain waves skyrocketed. He seem to truly want to battle it out with Long Zhi as his large flying blade flew out from his sleeves, floating before him.

Long Zhi's eyes flashed and his brainwaves also skyrocketed, causing a huge pressure to descend on the four of them.

Hong Cai's face instantly turned pale as he staggered backwards. Ren Liang was slightly better as he was able to resist the pressure, but his face couldn't help but turn pale.

"Haha, I knew you already reached the Pseudo-earth realm, but who said you are the only one that improved?"

Yan Hong smile widened and as he stepped forwards, his brainwaves exploded clashing with Long Zhi's energy wave, creating a warp in the atmospheric space.

Long Zhi's expression finally changed slightly. The clash continued for more than ten seconds before Long Zhi withdrew his brain waves and spoke up.

"Alright, I will comprise and take three storage rings. I don't care if you agree or not, that the least I can go." Long Zhi wasn't afraid of Yan Hong. He was actually looking to do battle him since there have been rumours spreading that Ren Liang could take him on.

However, this wasn't a place to battle, several Demonic beast and students are already rushing towards this direction which meant that they couldn't remain here for much longer.

Yan Hong withdrew his brainwaves and nodded his head. He wasn't all brawn and no brain after all. He also knew they wouldn't have enough to battle it out with each other and if they remain here any longer, other stronger people would be attracted here and they would definitely be robbed off their treasure. It was a situation they would like to avoid.

"Then I will take three, Ren Liang will have two, while Hong Cai, you should be able to manage one." Yan Hong smiled at the Ren Liang and Hong Cai as though waiting for them to make some sort of complaint.

But the most simple and try rule of this world was that the strong prey on the weak. Ren Liang and Hong Cai understood this, which why although their expressions were ugly, they weren't able to say a single word of compliant, they could only accept their fate, nodding their head in compliance with his words.

"Good. Now that we've settled this, it's time to share the rings." Long Zhi said with slight impatience and then turned towards David.

"Kid, bring the rings over. We need to share them and get out of here."

David blinked his eyes and there was a look of innocence on his face as he replied.

"What rings?"
