Then, it charged straight toward the honeycomb.
The massive Dog-Headed Bees on the Bewitching Tree no longer hesitated and flew out to intercept it.
In an instant, a great battle was about to begin.
Su Yunxi, who had transformed into a Dog-Headed Bee, was utterly stunned by what she had just witnessed.
Being close to the honeycomb, she had observed the events in great detail.
The moment the suddenly appearing Tiger-Headed Eagle made contact with the Dog-Headed Bee, it immediately froze and plummeted downward.
In other words, the Tiger-Headed Eagle hadn't been killed by the Dog-Headed Bee.
A bold idea suddenly flashed through her mind.
Could it be that someone had deliberately framed the Dog-Headed Bees?
Making the large Tiger-Headed Eagle believe its young had been killed by them.
Thus inciting conflict between the two sides.
And indeed, that was exactly what happened.
The large Tiger-Headed Eagle was already locked in combat with the giant Dog-Headed Bee.
If her suspicions were correct, then that person's target must also be the Bewitching Tree's Soul-Bewitching Fruits.
With this thought, Su Yunxi began scanning her surroundings, trying to identify the mastermind behind this scene.
However, after a thorough look, she found no suspicious traces.
She decided not to dwell on it further and focused on her main task.
This situation might actually work to her advantage.
Regardless of others' intentions.
She just needed to seize this opportunity to collect some Soul-Bewitching Fruits.
So, Su Yunxi began carefully maneuvering her transformed Dog-Headed Bee body closer to the fruits.
Meanwhile, Luo Feng had witnessed everything clearly through his Legendary Telescope.
Frowning, he surveyed the area, wondering if someone else was present.
Otherwise, the bizarre incident that had just occurred would be hard to explain.
Seeing the formidable Tiger-Headed Bee die upon mere contact was truly perplexing.
When Luo Feng combined his telescope with the Clairvoyance Charm for observation, he indeed discovered something unusual.
He spotted a person lying prone on a large tree.
Upon recognizing the insignia on the person's clothing, Luo Feng's expression changed.
This individual bore the emblem of the Hurricane Pirate Crew.
Could this person be a member of the Hurricane Pirate Crew?
As this thought crossed Luo Feng's mind, he quickly recalled the information he had gathered about the Hurricane Pirate Crew.
The Hurricane Pirate Crew consisted of one captain and four deputy captains.
Details about the captain were scarce, even in the Bounty Hunter Guild's records.
However, there were some records about the four deputy captains.
One of them was a Beast Master, capable of commanding wild beasts to obey his orders.
He could even partially undergo Therianthropy, making him exceptionally powerful.
This person was none other than Niu Shisan, a deputy captain of the Hurricane Pirate Crew.
Luo Feng suspected the person before him was very likely Niu Shisan.
Judging by the strange occurrences, the probability was high.
It seemed Niu Shisan's target was also the Soul-Bewitching Fruits.
A faint, eerie smile crept onto Luo Feng's face.
He was planning to locate the Hurricane Pirate Crew's hideout, and now, running into their deputy leader here felt like the heavens were aiding him.
At this thought, Luo Feng decided not to act hastily.
He wanted to see what this person was up to.
There would still be time to strike later.
So, Luo Feng turned to the two beside him and whispered, "Let's wait a bit longer.
I just noticed someone perched on a large tree not far from us—Niu Shisan, the deputy leader of the Hurricane Pirate Crew.
This Tiger-Headed Eagle was likely lured here by him.
Let's see what he's planning."
Hearing this, Tang Xuewei was startled. Having traveled with Luo Feng for so long, she was well aware of the Hurricane Pirate Crew's reputation.
Encountering one of their deputy leaders here was indeed unexpected.
She nodded and replied softly, "Alright, I'll follow your lead."
"Woof! Woof! Woof!"
"Screech!"
The Waspdog King and the Tiger-Headed Eagle were locked in fierce combat.
Both were Level 5 in strength, their battle prowess formidable.
The clash was intense, shaking the surroundings.
Nearby trees were already heavily damaged by the fight.
Even the Bewitching Trees were affected, some of their Soul-Bewitching Fruits knocked to the ground.
As soon as the fruits hit the ground, the surrounding Dog-Headed Bees swarmed toward them.
They began carrying the fruits back into the Honeycomb.
Among them, one smaller Dog-Headed Bee seemed particularly excited.
That's right—this was Su Yunxi in her transformed state.
Su Yunxi's joy at this moment was beyond words.
An opportunity like this was something she wouldn't have dared dream of.
To come into contact with Soul-Bewitching Fruits so easily!
Soon, she followed another Dog-Headed Bee to one of the fruits.
Taking the lead, she picked up a fruit and flew toward the Honeycomb.
The other bee didn't find her actions suspicious—only that this "newcomer" was exceptionally diligent.
After the battle ended, it might even put in a good word for her with the boss.
Tang Xuewei, holding the fruit in her arms, resisted the urge to stash it into her space ring immediately.
Doing so would likely draw the attention of the surrounding bees.
She needed to find a way to infiltrate the Honeycomb.
There were bound to be plenty of Soul-Bewitching Fruits inside.
However, even in this chaos, several large Dog-Headed Bees stood guard around the Honeycomb, making it impossible for ordinary bees to approach.
Ten minutes later.
The fight between the Waspdog King and the Tiger-Headed Eagle began to slow.
Both were now battered and bruised.
The Tiger-Headed Eagle, in particular, had been careless—stung by the Waspdog King's Poison Needle.
This significantly weakened its combat ability.
Of course, the Waspdog King had paid a price too.
Its body bore several deep gashes from the Tiger-Headed Eagle's talons, blood seeping from the wounds.
At this moment, Niu Shisan, who had been lying low, slowly began to rise.
He took out a horn from his space ring.
Then, he began to blow it with all his might.
A very loud horn sound erupted from in front of him.
As the sound of the horn spread, other noises began to emerge from within the forest.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
