Jiang Chen hadn’t expected to kill as soon as he arrived there, but Mo Qing had pushed him to such an extent that he had to kill her. She had shown no mercy and no respect to others. He wasn’t the one to blame for her death.
If he had let a woman more dangerous than Li Qin go, would she commit murder in the Hundred Thousand Mountains as well?
Jiang Chen surely knew her death would bring him trouble, as the Mos would seek revenge, but he didn’t regret it. No matter what kind of tricks the Mos had or what kind of revenge they took, he would stop them with the sword in his hand.
He had provoked the Mos to teach them a lesson, that they would have to pay a price to take revenge on him, then he could frighten them off so that they wouldn’t have the nerve to do whatever they wanted.
That was how this world worked.
Regardless of other people’s surprised look, Jiang Chen started to pat down Mo Qing’s dead body.
Since she had possessed the carriage and such a great amount of machine-operated beasts, she could also have treasures like a mustardseed ring.
However, soon, Jiang Chen found this wasn’t the case. It turned out that Mo Qing had kept all of those puppet machine-operated beasts in spiritual spells.
He found lots of spiritual spells in Mo Qing’s sleeves, painted with all kinds of machine-operated beasts.
Then, Jiang Chen jumped onto the carriage and found a huge amount of low-grade yuan stones there. They had been used to power the puppet machine-operated beasts.
Jiang Chen took all of them and left, heading for the zones where the spiritual herb could be.
At the same time, in another area of the Realm of Beasts, another bunch of people had gathered. There were hundreds of them, including some talented people who were ranked on the Eternal Flame List, but the most famous among them were the Mos, standing in the middle.
Around them, there were all kinds of puppet machine-operated beasts, standing like an army.
Ten-odd disciples of the Mos were standing around their young master, Mo Li, the third young master of the Mos.
He was wearing a neat black outfit and a baggy white robe, with side-swept bangs and brilliant eyes. He was a reserved, beautiful man with a feminine face.
Many girls on the spot were sending him flirting glances.
The reason was that he wasn’t only ranked 54th on the Eternal Flame List, but also ranked seventh on the Prince List.
Wherever he went, he was the center of attention.
At this moment, he was holding a wooden puppet in his hand. Both its features and its clothes were similar to Mo Qing’s.
The puppet was bleeding from the chest.
The Mo disciples all turned pale when they saw it.
They all knew what this meant, that Mo Qing was dead.
They had just arrived here, and she had already died.
“Mo Qing had the Flame Chariot and many machine-operated beasts. The portal couldn’t have sent her to a dangerous place. It could only mean she was killed by someone,” Mo Li said.
He was looking at the puppet. The others couldn’t tell whether he was talking to them or to himself.
“Who?! Who has the nerve to kill people of the Mos?!”
“Darn. I’ll find the killer! That person is dead meat!”
The Mo disciples were all angry and full of killing intent.
“Mo Qing wasn’t of the direct line of descent. She always acted on impulses, but even so, she was still a member of the Mos. As the most powerful one of the Mo disciples that had travelled there, this was a slap in the face.”
“This person is dead meat!”
Mo Li stood up and burned a spiritual spell. A machine-operated bird flew into the air and flew away after circling for a little bit.
“Let’s go!”
Mo Li and the others followed the bird. They raised huge trails of dust as they moved.
They were moving so fast that the people in their way hardly had the time to give way. They gazed at the Mos’ disciples’ receding figures, lost in thought. They felt a deep pity for the unlucky fellow that these people were after.
...
Jiang Chen had no idea that there were people after him. After leaving the area he had appeared in, he realized little by little why this place was called the Realm of Beasts.
Like busy streets full of pedestrians, monsters could be seen everywhere in these mountains.
Jiang Chen had killed seven or eight soldier-level monsters in just a few hours.
The monsters were divided into soldier-level, general-level, king-level, spirit-level, and holy-level.
In Jiang Chen’s current state, the soldier-level was the easiest for him. The general level would be a little more difficult. If he ran into a king-level, he would have to run away from it.
He kept the dead bodies of the monsters he hunted in his mustardseed ring.
Although he was able to take in a mixture of the spirit of universe and the primordial yuan, he didn’t want to do it. As Elder Technique Impartation had said, to supply himself with the blood and meat of monsters would do him a great service.
However, since Jiang Chen had once tasted the blood and meat of king-level and spirit-level monsters with the help of a holy-level beast, the soldier-level monsters tasted bland to him.
Anyway, find the spiritual herb first.
Jiang Chen headed for his destination with this thought.
At the same time, not far away from him, a group of people were escaping in a dispirited fashion. There were three men and two women, all in the Gathering Yuan State.
A monster was chasing them at a high speed. It was running on the mountain as if it was on flat ground. From time to time, it climbed onto trees and chased them from above.
A purple radiance shot out like an arrow, hitting one of them. They were surprised to see that it was the monster’s tongue.
Caught by the tongue, the guy was brought onto a tree. After some screams, the crisp sound of his neck being bitten, broken by the monster, could be heard. Then, the world quieted down.
The other four turned pale and kept running. They knew the monster wouldn’t let them go.
As expected, it started to chase again. It was so close to the four.
At this moment, a human figure appeared in front of them. He was heading towards them, ignorant of the danger they faced.
“Don’t come over here!” a girl shouted.
She wasn’t thinking too much. She just didn’t want anyone to be caught by danger, that was all, yet her companions looked at her with annoyance. At such a crucial moment, it would be best if a scapegoat could die for them.
However, they didn’t think it would work, so they gave up that idea.
Although the man heard the warning, he went on approaching them instead of running away.
It wasn’t until then that they could see each other clearly.
“Is he an idiot?” the four couldn’t help thinking. He was a good-looking youngster, although he didn’t look very powerful.
He didn’t make any move to turn around when they ran past him.
The girl who had warned him didn’t have the heart to see him suffer, so she slapped his shoulder and said, “Run! Are you looking for death?”
The youngster smiled at her and went on walking.
“Just leave him there!” her companions shouted at her.
Helpless, she had to follow them.
Soon, they heard a whoosh sound as terrible as a nightmare. They were expecting the screams of the youngster and next, the sound of his neck being bitten broken.
Puh!
They heard a sound, but it sounded different.
The four stopped and looked back. They saw the youngster waving his sword to get rid of the blood on it. The monster was lying in its own blood.
It was a giant lizard. There were lumps everywhere on its rough skin. It had no scales, but its skin was very thick. Its long purple tongue was the weapon it had used to attack them.
“You are welcome.”
Jiang Chen smiled to respond to the four’s surprised looks, and kept walking on.
