A Golden Core Stage cultivator chasing an Original Infant Stage cultivator? And an Original Infant Stage Blood Python at that?
How … How was this possible?
The Flaming Sun Princess and Zi Xuan were both shocked!
This scene was way too shocking. Logically speaking, beasts of the Original Infant Stage should be much stronger than humans.
They were not weak in terms of intelligence and physical bodies. Their strength and speed were much faster than human cultivators. Once a fight broke out, the beasts would usually have the upper hand.
But now, an Original Infant Stage Blood Python, known for its speed and cunning, was being chased and beaten by a human youth. Furthermore, the youth was only of the Golden Core Stage. Was this a dream?
Just as the both of them were in a daze, the escaping Blood Python shouted, "Friend, don't go overboard. It's just a misunderstanding. Do you really have to kill me?"
"Of course!"
Xu Que grunted coldly and was too lazy to say anything else. He activated the Lightning Haste and his body blurred as he appeared in mid air.
He gripped his Dark Buster Sword tightly and swung it downwards. It was the Flame Devouring Wave!
Every move he made could split mountains and break waves!
"Boom!"
The Blood Python couldn't dodge in time and was hit by the Qi wave. Its entire body was sent flying and smashed into a huge tree. It then fainted.
Xu Que raised the Dark Heavy Buster Sword in his hand. Just as he was about to strike the final blow, he sensed that there were two people in the vicinity!
"Village girls? That's not right. How can village girls be of the Golden Core Stage? And their faces are smeared with mud. Are they too ugly to be seen? Oh my, look at their eyes. They're stunned. It's obvious that they've been attracted by my charm. This human skin mask is really worth it! "
Xu Que looked over and was elated.
However, his expression was extremely calm and serious. He was about to act tough!
He glanced at the sky and pretended to be deep in thought. He was like a melancholic, mature and steady warrior as he sighed.
Then, he looked at the Blood Python, who had fainted on the ground, and said righteously, "The Heavens have the virtue of cherishing life. Today, I will let you live. If you harm others in the future, I will definitely come and take your life."
With that, Xu Que flung his robe, turned around, and strode away.
Throughout the entire process, he did not even look at Zi Xuan or the Flaming Sun Princess.
"Ding! Congratulations to host 'Xu Que' for successfully acting tough. The reward is 50 act tough points!"
"Ding! Congratulations to host 'Xu Que' for successfully acting tough. The reward is 60 act tough points!"
The sound of the system notification rang in his mind.
Xu Que was secretly delighted in his heart. 110 act tough points had been earned just like that. It felt so good.
He wasn't sure if the two points of Luck Points from the human-skinned mask had played a role in this encounter. Anyway, he had already earned back more than half of his act tough points and couldn't be bothered to think too much about it.
…
As for Zi Xuan and the Flaming Sun Princess, their faces were still filled with shock.
Xu Que was able to subdue the Original Infant Stage Blood Python with a single strike. This was beyond their imagination!
More importantly, the Blood Python was already in his possession. Yet he didn't want to kill it. It was as if the Blood Python was worthless in his eyes.
It was only after Xu Que had walked far away that Zi Xuan regained her senses. She looked at the Flaming Sun Princess and said, "Princess, that man's powers were so strong. He was only at the Golden Core Full Foundation Stage and was able to subdue an Original Infant Stage Blood Python so easily. If we could beg for his protection, we might be able to escape from here."
The Flaming Sun Princess frowned, "I am a dignified Princess. How could I lower my pride to beg a Golden Core Stage stranger for protection? Although this man's powers were impressive, there were so many Original Infant Stage assassins in Sky Demon City. He definitely wouldn't be a match for them. Zi Xuan, don't worry. My father should have received my distress signal and is sending people over. We should just hide for a while longer! "
"This place is so far away from the Imperial City. Even if the Fire Emperor were to send people over, I'm afraid it would take a long time for them to arrive." Zi Xuan thought for some time before laughing out, "Princess, I have an idea. Look at us now. As long as we don't reveal our identities, no one would be able to recognize us. When he sends us to a safe place, we shall reward him with some spirit stones. After that, we shall not interact with each other anymore."
When the Flaming Sun Princess heard this, she couldn't help but waver. She frowned as she contemplated.
"Aiya, my Princess, don't hesitate anymore. Come with me, I'll beg him. You see, he's so compassionate towards a demonic beast. He definitely won't leave us in the lurch." As Zi Xuan spoke, she pulled Duan Ling Tian's hand and chased after Xu Que.
After a few breaths, Xu Que heard the sound of footsteps coming from behind him. He couldn't help but pause for a moment.
He turned around and saw the two women running towards him.
One of the ladies had a pleading look in her eyes as she spoke softly, "My friend, can you wait for a moment? I have something to ask of you!"
Xu Que wore the human skin mask and decided to act tough till the end.
At that moment, his eyes revealed a hint of melancholy. He raised his head and looked at the two ladies, "I wonder what's the matter for you two ladies?"
His voice was clear and calm, like a gentle warm current that slid past their ears.
The both of them paused for a moment.
Zi Xuan was still fine with it. However, the Flaming Sun Princess's heart was in turmoil.
All these years, the people she had interacted with were either men who treated her with respect or men who tried to flatter her.
However, she had never seen a man who was as calm as the black robed man in front of her.
His powers were extraordinary and he was able to suppress a Blood Python with a wave of his hand. In the end, he was compassionate and left.
Every single move he made seemed to emit a unique aura. His eyes were as black as ink. They were so deep that it was suffocating. It was as if he was able to draw people in. It was as if he was mesmerized just by looking at him for a second longer.
The Flaming Sun Princess's heart seemed to have been frozen for ten thousand years. At that moment, it seemed as if there was a slight ripple.
But very quickly, she suppressed the ripple. Her eyes regained their indifference and her expression became cold once again.
At this point, Zi Xuan opened her mouth and spoke, "To be honest, I … My sister and I are from the Imperial City. A few days ago, we came out to play. We didn't expect to be chased by our enemies. Our servants and servants were all killed. The both of us disguised ourselves and escaped here. I wonder if you can escort us back to the city? As long as we can return, we will definitely reward you satisfactorily! "
When Xu Que heard this, he paused for a moment before his heart skipped a beat.
These two … Could they be the people in the horse carriage?
Damn, I've searched far and wide, only to find it by chance. I've been looking for it for a few hours. I didn't expect to find it here. It looks like the Luck from the Human Skin Mask is really working this time!
Thinking up to this point, Xu Que laughed in his heart. He pretended to be serious as he looked at the both of them and asked, "Are your enemies a group of Original Infant Stage cultivators dressed in white robes and wearing red masks?"
"Yes, my friend … You've seen them before?" Zi Xuan was shocked and started to worry. She was afraid that this black robed man wouldn't lend a helping hand. After all, those assassins were all of the Original Infant Stage!
