Bab 420: The Integration

In a patch of unvisited, densely-packed woods on the Western He continent, a single ape with long wispy hair crossed its arms as it casually swung from one tree to another.

The ape grinned as it espied a big tree somewhere before it. It swung its long arm and hurled itself forward, while the other arm reached out to grab the tree's branch.

Just as the ape was about to grab hold, a streak of black light suddenly carved out of the air as ripple-like pulses coursed through the space around the single light. A humanoid figure fell out from the black light, slamming himself onto the ape. The man fell to the ground, but the ape was sent flying over a distance.

Before it fell, it spun uncontrollably in several somersaults. By the time the ape picked itself up from this humiliating position, it had already bared its teeth in irritation. Despite that, it seemed to be largely unharmed by the sudden clash.

It scratched its head and glared at the man before scurrying away.
