My Demon Clan Is Too Capable, It’s Automatically Launching Revenge - Chapter 14

“What do you want us to do today, Clan Master Su?” A disciple named Zhou Ping asked.
Zhuo Ping was the disciple who claimed to have worked part-time in a medicine hall.
“Obviously, we are going to collect some spiritual herbs and catch some demonic beasts.” Su Mo made no attempts at hiding his intentions.
Last night, Su Mo had selected two books from the grand library for his eight newly acquired disciples. One book was titled Compendium of Spiritual Herbs, and the other was Cultivation of Demonic Beast and Post-natal care.
Then he asked for the names of his new disciples.
The four people managing the spiritual herbs were Zhou Ping, Guo Zhemao, Yu Yuanjia, and Shi Xingde.
The other four that would care for the demonic beasts were named Man Yongning, Hou Lezhi, Shi Heshuo, and Lu Weizhao.
What made Su Mo happier was that Shi Yunshan’s loyalty had reached level one hundred after their fight against Earth Fiend Daoist. The loyalty of the other eight disciples had also improved, reaching level sixty.
As long as there weren’t any massive calamities or temptations, these eight disciples would not betray Su Mo. These people were simply here because this was an extremely prosperous land that was hard to come by.
Besides, Su Mo had also displayed his strength and capabilities. He showed the disciples that he was a big shot cultivator of the Golden Core Realm and was not to be trifled with.
But these disciples’ talents were average. They were nearly forty years old and had barely ascended to the Meridian Formation Realm. They had even used quite many elixirs to aid in their ascension, which is why there were only part-time disciples of the Cerulean Ocean Blades, and not considered to be elites.
These disciples could now enjoy a more prosperous cultivation environment in the Crimson Heart Village compared to when they were in the Cerulean Ocean Blade Clan. Su Mo even entrusted them with some essential tasks in the village, and since they could not resist the village’s environment, they decided to just work hard for Su Mo.
The eight of them had the same idea.
“Then are we going to Sunset Peak?” Lu Weizhao asked in puzzlement.
Sunset Peak was a place on the floating island where demonic beasts gathered. There were also spiritual herbs growing there.
“Yes, but the only reason we’re going there is to catch a specific demonic beast. We will go to the floating city to buy the rest,” Su Mo replied.
The floating city was located near Sunset Peak. It was a gathering place for wandering travelers. The shops there sold demonic beasts, spiritual herbs, and various materials.
“Clan Master Su, you’re interested in catching a demonic beast that looks like a shrimp, right?” Shi Heshou asked tentatively.
“Yes, how did you know?”
The shrimp-like demonic beasts were amphibious creatures that ranged from level one to level three. The texture of their meat was decent, and they were rich in spiritual energy.
It was something that cultivators dreamed of in their earlier days. But this demonic beast was cunning. It was wise to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. Only a few clans could breed this creature on a large scale.
“I still haven’t thanked you enough for the book you lent me, Clan Master Su. I studied all night and just happened to come across this special kind of demonic beast that originated from Sunset Peak,” Shi Heshuo hurriedly replied.
“You’re pretty impressive. From now on, you shall lead the other three in caring for demonic beasts.” Su Mo nodded his head in satisfaction.
“T-Thank you, Clan Master Su!” Shi Heshuo hurriedly replied.
The other three disciples cast envious gazes toward Shi Heshuo. They secretly regretted not putting in extra effort into their studies.
…
Although the group of nine were hurrying along at top speed, the other eight could not compare to Su Mo’s abnormal physique, so they only managed to arrive at Sunset Peak at night.
It was forbidden for humans to wander Sunset Peak at night. Demonic beasts would become more active while humans weren’t around. But of course, this did not stop Su Mo and the others from continuing their current expedition.
The shrimp-like beasts were more active during the night.
“Let’s go. Follow my lead and catch those mantis shrimps.”
Su Mo could not help but mention a specific shrimp from his previous life before he transmigrated.
“Clan Master Su, we’re catching shrimps, not mantis shrimps. What kind of demonic beasts are those? Why haven’t I read about them in the book you lent me?” Shi Heshou asked with doubt.
“Ahem. That’s an ancient divine beast, so you probably haven’t heard of it yet,” Su Mo explained, feeling embarrassed.
“As expected of Clan Master Su. You even know about ancient divine beasts,” Shi Heshuo said with admiration.
“Hurry up and follow my lead. We need to look for these shrimps.”
After saying that, Su Mo took the lead and walked into Sunset Peak.
Su Mo had come to Sunset Peak with Old Devil Chi Xin once and learned about the gathering place of the shrimps. Su Mo remembered that the shrimps would come to the vicinity of a nearby cove.
During the day, the shrimps would rest in the water or hunt for food, and at midnight, they would go ashore to wander, which meant that this would be the best opportunity to catch shrimps.
“Are there any shrimps here, Clan Master Su? I can’t tell if there are any or not,” Shi Heshuo walked over and asked.
“Of course not. The shrimps are very smart. They will usually cover up their tracks,” Su Mo replied.
In the past, Old Devil Chi Xin tried to catch some shrimps, but they would always manage to escape before he could even get close to them.
“Be discreet and don’t attract the shrimp’s attention. This demonic beast is exceptionally vigilant. It will run away if you make any sudden movements,” Su Mo warned his disciples.
The few of them agreed repeatedly. After Su Mo gave the disciples some essential instructions, they hid and waited until dawn.
Some of the disciples became impatient and made sudden movements in the nearby cove, causing the shrimp to perk up.
Shrimps the size of dogs slowly walked up toward them.
These were level 1 shrimps.
Su Mo remained still because his target was the only female shrimp in the colony. After all the shrimps came up, he saw a cow-sized shrimp slowly come to the shore.
Su Mo’s eyes lit up. “That’s it!”
Su Mo activated his movement technique and immediately charged at the female shrimp.
When the eight disciples saw that Su Mo had charged forward, they quickly used the spell that Su Mo had taught them.
“Inescapable Net!” The eight disciples shouted in unison!
The colossal net trapped the shrimps below, but their reactions were fast. A small troupe of shrimps trapped by the net still managed to escape, including the female shrimp.
However, Su Mo was already waiting at the edge of the cove. When Su Mo saw the female shrimp running over, he threw a punch while secretly casting a binding spell.
Although the shrimps were known to be escape artists, they were still affected by Su Mo’s punch.
Then, Su Mo threw a punch at the shrimps, causing them to fall onto the ground.
Su Mo continued to attack, casting binding spells onto the female shrimp’s body.
“I’ve already cast binding spells onto you. You only have one option now, and that is to come back with me,” Su Mo said in a low voice.
The female shrimp seemed to have sensed the binding spell placed onto its body and frantically tried to express that it had succumbed to Su Mo’s will.
“Order the other shrimp to stop struggling!”
The female shrimp was the alpha and had absolute control over the colony. After the female shrimp cried out a few times, the other shrimp stopped struggling.
“Is it really that simple?” Zhou Ping found it hard to believe.
“Yes, it’s that simple. The female shrimp is the hardest one to catch. That’s why they’re so difficult to mass-produce. All we needed to do was catch the female shrimp.” Shi Heshuo explained to Zhou Ping.
“All right, stop chatting. Let’s go to Xuankong City. We’ll probably only arrive at daybreak since we have these shrimp with us,” Su Mo said..
