Chapter 437 Strange Rumour (11)
?
In the center of this valley, there was a pedestal that was placed there.
On that pedestal, there was a token that was releasing a bright glow that condensed into the beam of light that shot into the air.
Based on this, even a fool would recognize that this was the thing releasing all of this life energy.
If it was the thing that was releasing all of this life energy, then this thing was the treasure that had appeared.
After 'Mu Bao Bao' landed in the valley, there were others that landed as well. Though most of them were much further back compared to 'Mu Bao Bao'.
They looked at the pedestal with the token on it and then they looked around before turning back to the token.
"This is it?"
That was what they thought the moment that they saw this token.
After all, no matter how they looked at it, the token didn't seem like an amazing treasure.
Sure it could be powerful, but something like this could generally only be used once.
It was useful for saving their lives, but it wasn't that useful in making them stronger and only by becoming stronger would they be able to move up in life in this world.
Still, that was only for an instant.
After all, this was still a treasure that was in front of them.
Even if they were a bit disappointed by what it turned out to be, it wasn't as if they would just ignore it.
So they all focused on the token again.
But by the time that they reacted, there was someone that had already made a move.
This was a person that had absolute confidence in their speed, so they didn't waste any time dashing forward at the pedestal. With their speed, they were able to dash over to the pedestal before anyone could react.
Then they grabbed the token and ran out of the valley.
By the time that anyone reacted, that person was already running off into the distance.
With how fast he was going, it even seemed unlikely that anyone would be able to catch them.
That is if 'Mu Bao Bao' wasn't there.
As soon as she came back to her senses, she immediately dashed forward as well.
In an instant, she cleared the space that this person had created and was above them with her sword drawn. She didn't even hesitate at all to bring that sword down above them.
But because this was a rushed attack, that person was able to react in time and dodge out of the way.
The moment that the sword hit the ground, there was a large blast of dirt that was sent flying from the ground. The force from this blast knocked the person who had taken the token away from 'Mu Bao Bao'.
That person was able to use this force to smoothly turn in the air and then land before running off again.
'Mu Bao Bao' revealed a dissatisfied look before charging at that person again.
However, this time, that person didn't remain idle.
They threw out several balls into the air that suddenly exploded, releasing a bunch of smoke behind them.
When 'Mu Bao Bao' saw this smoke, she had no choice but to slow down. After all, there was a strange colour to this smoke, so she didn't know if this was poison or not.
Using the moment of hesitation that came from this smoke, the person with the token ran even faster and quickly disappeared from sight.
That is, they disappeared from the sights of everyone that was watching from afar.
However, 'Mu Bao Bao' narrowed her eyes and quickly found the person that she was looking for.
She hesitated for another moment before suddenly raising her sword and throwing it out.
In an instant, there was a splash of blood that appeared that was quickly followed by the sound of a body hitting the ground.
'Mu Bao Bao' wasted no time at all, stepping off the ground and then appearing where the body had landed.
This was the person who had taken the token.
There was now a sword that was piercing right through their stomach that had pinned them to the ground.
Even though they had a sword through them, they were still alive and conscious.
Seeing 'Mu Bao Bao' standing above them, the person with the token quickly raised it up and said, "Wait, you can have…"
Before they could finish, they found that their view of the world had suddenly changed.
All of sudden, it had become…upside down.
Then they realized what had happened.
Their head had been chopped off.
'Mu Bao Bao' didn't care about the shocked look that was on the face of the person she just decapitated or the headless body lying there, she just reached out to take the token from the hand of this corpse.
Then she turned her attention back to the rest of the people that were still standing there in a daze in the valley.
She narrowed her eyes before disappearing from the spot.
When she reappeared, she was in front of all those people again.
When they all saw her reappear, they all felt a chill run down their spine.
That was because they knew that it wasn't a good sign that she was back.
If she had already obtained the token, the only reason that she would come back now…was to silence them all.
With the abilities that she had already shown, they knew that there was no chance that they would be able to defeat her. They knew that there was only a slim chance of survival and it would be to…
So before 'Mu Bao Bao' could do anything, all of them suddenly turned around and then…ran off in different directions.
While this wasn't a guarantee that they would live, this was better than doing nothing.
If they all scattered in different directions, then 'Mu Bao Bao' wouldn't be able to chase them all since there was only one of her and so many of them.
Of course, that depended on if they could get far enough that she wouldn't be able to take care of them in one single sweep. So they ran off immediately while she was still caught off guard so that they would be able to create that distance between them and her.
But it was too bad for them that 'Mu Bao Bao' was able to react in time and quickly raised her sword as if she was about to cut them all down.
But at the same time, there was something good that happened for them.
Out of nowhere, there were two spirit beasts that suddenly jumped out and attacked 'Mu Bao Bao'.
When 'Mu Bao Bao' saw these two beasts appear, she couldn't help being caught off guard.
That was because she could sense that these two spirit beasts…weren't weaker than her.
She quickly raised her sword and swept out to block the oncoming claws. However, since she had been caught off guard and the enemies weren't weaker than her, she was sent flying by the force of these attacks.
When she landed, her hand came up to her chest as a sliver of blood came out from the corner of her lips.
'Mu Bao Bao' knitted her brows as she looked at the two spirit beasts that landed not far away from her before suddenly spitting out the blood that was in her mouth. She then looked at them with narrowed eyes and asked, "Who is your master?"
The two spirit beasts didn't say a thing since they were spirit beasts, but there was no reaction to her question as if they didn't hear anything that she said.
Then all of sudden, the two spirit beasts moved to different sides.
They were circling around her in different directions, preparing to draw her attention two different ways to catch her off guard.
When 'Mu Bao Bao' saw this, she couldn't help knitting her brows again.
She quickly stood up and jumped back to avoid being surrounded, but the two spirit beasts didn't give her a chance to escape. They immediately jumped forward so that they kept up the same pace as her, making sure to surround both of her sides.
Since they were all in the Low Qi Condensation Realm, 'Mu Bao Bao' wasn't able to break free of being surrounded by these spirit beasts.
She had no choice but to stop herself and stand firm as she faced them.
It seemed that the only way that she would be able to break free of this blockade was if she took care of these two spirit beasts that had appeared out of nowhere.
But there was a problem that she also had to take care of that these spirit beasts were blocking her from doing.
The ones that were currently escaping had seen the Love Sect's token and if she left them be, they would spread that she had taken the Love Sect's token.
This was not something that she could allow to spread…so she had no choice.
She had been forced into a corner, so she had no choice but to respond with appropriate action.
'Mu Bao Bao' brought her fingers to her mouth before suddenly giving a whistle.
This whistle rang out clearly through the entire area and the ones that were running away couldn't help hesitating for a second before they continued running.
But then…there were two figures that suddenly appeared not that far away from where 'Mu Bao Bao' was surrounded by the two spirit beasts.
