[Starting Countdown]
[05:00]
Baek Ain looked at the Shady Baboon with a hateful gaze and converted his pain into willpower to slap some sense to this piece of shit. That mocking smile on its primate's face is enough to make him puke in annoyance.
"Do you think a surprise attack will kill me? You won't touch me again, you bitch!"
The Shady Baboon frowned and rushed to Baek Ain, swinging its hairy arm at him.
Baek Ain used Sixth Sense and dodged by kicking the ground to the left, reading the Shady Baboon's movement carefully. He gritted his teeth because his performance weakened by 75%.
He couldn't muster as much strength as he previously could.
Not to mention his top speed.
But he will keep dodging.
HE WILL SURVIVE AND FINISH THE FUCKING QUEST!
BOOM!
BOOM!
BOOM!
With each strike the Shady Baboon launches, the 3rd Tier Magical Beast creates massive craters on the ground, but he couldn't hit Baek Ain for some reason. There was a small gap between them.
3rd Tier Magical Beast is equal to Dou Grandmaster, and Shady Baboon is obviously a powerful one of his kind.
"WOOO!!"
The Shady Baboon barked in frustration, slamming its furred arms on the ground. Grabbing the nearest tree, the baboon threw it at Baek Ain.
SWOOSH!
Baek Ain crouched and dodged the tree, sensing the Shady Baboon's presence approaching him.
[Hyper Jump]
Crack!
"WOOO!" The frustrated beast opened its palm and saw the human dodging again.
[03:11]
Baek Ain hid between tree branches and tried to gather all Dou Qi in his body. He looked down at his broken left arm, grimacing because it wasn't just a crack but his bone breaking all over the place.
Cough!
He spewed a mouthful of blood because he was moving too much after getting such injuries.
"WOOOO!!" The Shady Baboon spotted Baek Ain's location and began chasing him again. The chasing game continued, but the baboon marked Baek Ain's scent this time.
Baek Ain clicked his tongue and kept using Hyper Jump to the waterfall out of the woods. They arrived at a rocky land where nothing tall could hide him from the baboon.
It might be a stupid move, but Baek Ain couldn't move freely in the woods while this annoying baboon walked as if it was its playground.
[01:01]
"Wooo!" The Shady Baboon smashed its chest excitedly.
Jumping toward Baek Ain, the Shady Baboon released a war cry and shook the ground with a high-frequency shockwave.
Baek Ain sent several Dou Qi blasts and tried to nullify the shockwave as his body couldn't endure more damage. He witnessed a massive joined hand of the baboon about to hit his head and activated a secret skill.
"RAAAARR!!!" He let out a beastly scream.
[Golden Crow's Possession]
BOOM!
Golden flame erupted from his body, Baek Ain's cultivation soared by five levels, and all his injuries were "temporarily." suppressed.
[Iron-like Enhancement: Full Body]
[Hyper Jump 3x]
Baek Ain bounced on the ground rapidly and kicked the Shady Baboon with an insane speed. Their attack canceled each other, leaving the baboon surprised.
BAM!
"WOOOOOO!!!"
The Shady Baboon couldn't believe its eyes and attacked the human to confirm something.
SWOOSH! KLANK!
Baek Ain used all his strength and deflected the baboon's finger with his Sharp Tiger Blade. The intense punch changed direction to the right and brushed Baek Ain's face, smashing the rocky ground.
CRACK! BOOM!
The ground exploded and sent rocks flying in all directions.
Giving the baboon a dirty look, Baek Ain slammed a jar full of poison to its face.
"WOOOO!!!" The Shady Baboon felt the intense heat in its eyes, watching everything become blurry.
Baek Ain took this chance and executed Seven Star Blade Art, lunging forward with his blade.
"Seven Star Blade Art: Tiger's Fang."
Baek Ain's figure turned shadow-like as his movement speed reached the limit. His blade moved swiftly across the Shady Baboon's body and dealt countless shallow wounds.
A fiery tiger's silhouette formed in the air and struck the Shady Baboon's back with its mouth.
"WOOOOO!!!" A painful bark escaped the Shady Baboon's mouth.
Baek Ain felt a heavy smack on his entire body and watched the baboon jumping around like a child in pain. A grin plastered over Baek Ain's bloody face as he planted deeply on the cliff's wall near the waterfall.
CRACK! BOOM!
[00:01]
[00:00]
[You have completed the quest]
"Haha..."
"HAHAHA!" A laugh filled with madness comes from Baek Ain's mouth.
He flipped his finger at the Shady Baboon and cursed, "Fuck YOU!"
And the Shady Baboon responded by throwing a massive rock at Baek Ain, sealing his fate.
BOOOOMM!!
The Shady Baboon threw fits by smashing the rock around because that weak human dealt so many injuries.
Tap!
"Woo?" A stepping sound appeared.
The Shady Baboon turned around and saw another human with the annoying human. She was releasing a menacing presence, which caused the baboon to tremble in fear.
"I wanted to save you sooner..." Lan Rou looked at her disciple sadly.
"But my curiosity and expectation held me down. I wanted to see your limit, not realizing something like 3 Tier Magical Beast is out of your reach currently."
"I'm sorry, Ain... You wouldn't fall into such a state if I stepped down to help you earlier."
"T-This is my fault."
Lan Rou glanced at the beast and spoke indifferently, "And you... I'll pay back what you have done to my dear disciple."
"I'll pay it back in a million folds, enough to make you perish because of the pain..."
Lan Rou's legs were "immediately." covered with the armament that only Dou Grandmasters could manifest. It was a pair of green armored boots with wings ornament on each side, sharp stiletto, and edges.
Wind Dou Qi revolved around Lan Rou's body.
And then she disappeared into the wind.
The Shady Baboon blinked in confusion and suddenly saw a high-heeled boot appear before its eyes.
BAM! BOOOOM!
The beast couldn't react appropriately before getting flung like a ragdoll back to the woods. It was too fast for anyone to see, leaving only the breeze behind.
Deep in the woods, the Shady Baboon trembled on the ground as Lan Rou's cold whisper entered its ears.
"This is not the end."
Slash!
The Shady Baboon lost its left arm.
"You're playing around with my dear disciple."
Slash!
The Shady Baboon lost its right arm.
"You're attacking him viciously, and I'll do the same."
Slash!
The Shady Baboon lost its right leg.
"I'll torture you."
"I'll drench your blood to the ground."
"Cut your stomach open."
"Pull your guts apart."
"I'm going to give you a fate worse than death..."
SLASH!
Lan Rou stomped her leg down to the Shady Baboon's last limb and gazed at the beast with piercing gray eyes. "No one shall touch my disciple beside me..." Her voice freezes Shady Baboon's body.
The Magical Beast might not understand Lan Rou, but her intense killing intent is enough indication that the baboon is fucked up.
"WOOOO!!!" A blood-curdling scream filled the Hidden Beast Forest.
...
...
As the evening sun descended from the sky, a tall yet feminine figure jumped out from the lush forest. She is carrying an injured young man, wrapping his body with one cloth she used to cover her head and hide her facial features.
Now the cloth given to Baek Ain, a long yet silky bluish-silver hair fell from Lan Rou's head. She's a gentle beauty with plump cheeks, thin brows, and rosy lips. Her light gray-colored eyes are shining dimly, gazing at Baek Ain warmly.
"What a reckless disciple."
"We haven't finished our lesson."
"I want to spend more time with you..."
"So don't die on me, Ain."
