The captives fell silent and didn't speak.
"Haha, honestly speaking, I'm really afraid that you guys will answer me. If that's the case, I won't be able to play anymore."
Mu Qiansen smiled malevolently and walked to a 'cage'. After that, he raised a torch and placed it under the cage.
The vines that formed the cage were afraid of heat. Hence, after being roasted by the torch, they immediately loosened.
Bang!
The human inside immediately fell to the ground. Before he could get up, Mu Qiansen stepped on his cheek and pressed him into a puddle after the rain.
"Can you tell me who Sun Mo's disciple is?"
Mu Qiansen asked.
The one who was stepped on was a middle-aged great teacher. He coldly laughed and didn't reply.
"You have guts!"
Mu Qiansen praised. After that, he suddenly exerted force and stomped down.
Baji!
The great teacher's head was smashed and his eyeballs rolled out.
"Ah!"
Some students cried out in fright.
"Yo, you can't blame me for this. Who asked you to be more fragile than bugs?"
Mu Qiansen sighed ruefully. After that, he lifted his head and looked around. "Who should I choose next?"
The expressions of the captives became nervous and trepidation.
"What should we do? Should we admit it? "
Lu Zhiruo asked anxiously. She didn't want these innocent people to die because of her.
"It's useless. He's toying with the captives."
Li Ziqi bitterly smiled.
After the great teacher died, Mu Qiansen asked a second time. Many students were already looking toward Li Ziqi and the others. Mu Qiansen naturally noticed this detail, but he intentionally didn't say it. He wanted to find a reason to kill people for fun.
"Stop playing with them. I'm Sun Mo's good friend!"
Mei Ziyu spoke.
"Wow, what a great sense of justice!"
Mu Qiansen clapped his hands. After that, he raised the torch and placed it under a cage.
Bang!
A girl fell down. After that, Mu Qiansen stepped on her stomach and grabbed her hair.
"You can bite off your tongue now or I'll kill her!"
Mu Qiansen threatened.
Mei Ziyu fell silent. She didn't want to see these people dying because of their side. Hence, she admitted it. But now, it was clear that Mu Qiansen wanted to torture them.
Even if Mei Ziyu bit off her tongue, it would be useless.
"I'm starting to count down. If you don't bite off your tongue, I'll kill someone."
Mu Qian Sen smiled, "Three, two …"
Mu Qiansen had just said 'two' when Mu Qiansen's torch landed on the girl's head.
Bang!
Skulls flew off and brains splattered everywhere.
"You scum!"
Mei Ziyu was enraged and wanted to rush out to kill. However, this caused the rattan to tighten even more. The barbed spikes pierced into her flesh.
Drip! Drip!
Fresh blood drenched Mei Ziyu's teacher robe and dripped down.
"Teacher, don't be rash."
Li Ziqi hurriedly persuaded.
"Haha, I did it on purpose. What can you do to me?"
Mu Qiansen sneered.
Soon, the third captive was captured by Mu Qiansen.
"You can beg her to bite off your tongue. Otherwise, your head will be crushed."
Mu Qian Sen tugged on the captive's hair.
"Tea-teacher, I beg you … I beg you."
The female student cried out, looking at Mei Ziyu in despair. The pressure of death was simply too terrifying.
…
"What now?"
Murong Mingyue and Sun Mo were hiding outside the campsite. When they heard the commotion, they hurriedly sat on a cloud and soared into the sky. After that, they saw the second female student being killed.
According to the original plan, the two of them would wait for the green-skinned natives to finish their meal and confirm that everyone had drunk the 'poison' before taking action.
But now, it was clear that they couldn't wait any longer.
"You go and save the Lian Fanggrass. I will go and capture the leader of the natives."
Sun Mo made his decision.
"Alright!"
Murong Mingyue had no objections. When they were waiting earlier, the scarab had already found the Lian Fanggrass. She was unconscious and was locked inside a mushroom-shaped house.
Right now, the natives had gathered here to watch the show. The defense was very lax, and the success rate of rescuing her was very high.
"Move out!"
After Sun Mo spoke, he leaped down from the cloud and drew his bow.
Wind God Arrow!
Swoosh!
The arrow condensed from spirit qi was translucent and descended from the sky.
…
"What kind of blood do you think is in your brain?"
Mu Qiansen mocked.
"Don't kill me, I beg you!"
The third captive begged.
"What did you say? I can't hear you! "
After Mu Qiansen asked, just when the captive in his hand was about to speak, he suddenly swung his fist and punched her mouth.
Kacha!
Fresh blood spurted out along with a mouthful of broken teeth.
The captive's chin was badly mutilated, and one could even see a part of her throat.
"You baddie, teacher won't let you off!"
Lu Zhiruo couldn't stand it anymore and roared in anger.
"Hehe, do you know that my elder brother has personally gone to hunt down your teacher? Right now, he should be bringing his corpse back. "
Mu Qiansen mocked, "Oh right, you should be the next one, right?"
Mu Qiansen tossed away the half-dead captive in his hand and walked toward Lu Zhiruo.
"Oi, native, can I use a secret treasure to redeem our lives?"
As the eldest martial sister, she naturally couldn't let anything happen to her junior martial sister. Hence, she interjected to attract Mu Qiansen's attention.
Ying Baiwu wanted to struggle free from the vines, but she couldn't do so. Moreover, the vines would secrete a kind of liquid. If the liquid entered the body through the wound, it would cause the body to feel numb and weak. This was also the reason why the captive couldn't resist after being released.
"My status is very noble. If you harm them, I guarantee that your entire clan will be wiped out."
Mei Ziyu grew anxious.
If something happened to Sun Mo's students, she wouldn't be able to absolve herself from the blame even if she died ten thousand times.
"Since this is the case, let's start from you!"
Mu Qiansen surveyed Mei Ziyu. "Do you know how we usually deal with captives? Chopping off their limbs and planting them in the soil. An ugly freak like you shouldn't be able to enjoy such a punishment. But now, I'll make an exception... "
For such a job, it would naturally be satisfying if he did it himself. However, after Mu Qiansen took two steps forward, he suddenly felt a great sense of alarm in his heart. After that, a huge wind pressure gushed over his head.
"What's that?"
Mu Qiansen inclined his head. After that, an arrow shot through his shoulder. After tearing a small part of his body apart, it blasted into the ground.
BOOM!
Mud splattered.
"Enemy attack!"
The aboriginals roared, but what welcomed them was a rain of wind god arrows!
Tens of spirit qi arrows enveloped the aboriginals.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
A moment later, screams of agony rang out.
The captives didn't understand. Just when they wanted to raise their heads, they saw a tall and muscular figure landing on the ground with a bang.
His iron fist blasted out.
Mu Qiansen, who was struggling to get up, was struck in the nose and fell down again.
Ka!
Fresh blood gushed out from Mu Qiansen's mouth and nose like a flood.
"Stop, or I'll kill him!"
Sun Mo roared and placed his longsword on Mu Qiansen's neck.
"What the hell?"
Mu Qiansen was horrified.
(Why are you here?)
(My elder brother personally acted, but he actually failed?)
(Also, from the looks of it, there are no signs of a battle to the death. This shouldn't be the case. My elder brother is one of the strongest hunters in the tribe.)
The other aboriginals didn't dare to act recklessly for fear of harming the innocent.
"That leader of yours has already been crippled. Now, it's his turn."
As Sun Mo spoke, he wanted to slit Mu Qiansen's throat.
"No!"
The ice-cold blade caused Mu Qiansen to subconsciously shout.
The other aboriginals roared. Clearly, they didn't believe Sun Mo's words. Because, crippling someone was definitely more difficult than killing them.
"I climbed up that beanstalk. Regretfully, your elder brother and his subordinates followed after me. They have no idea that I have a flying battle pet."
Sun Mo shrugged.
Mu Qiansen's eyes narrowed. If that was the case, everything would make sense.
"Oh ya, my archery skills aren't bad, right? Your tribesmen were all killed by me while riding on the giant bird. They are like live targets. "
Sun Mo teased, "If you don't believe me, you can send a few people to the vicinity of that beanstalk to take a look. There would surely be many corpses scattered around."
"Sun Mo, it's settled!"
Murong Mingyue came over with the Pity Fragrant Grass on her back.
"Save her!"
Sun Mo commanded.
Mu Qiansen didn't say anything. Sun Mo directly punched him in the eye.
"You should understand that I'm not discussing with you. This is an order!"
Sun Mo's tone was ruthless.
"T... teacher? I knew you would come and save me! "
Only now did Lu Zhiruo react. She immediately cried out in joy. After that, her body moved. In the end, the barbs on the rattan pierced into her flesh, causing her to groan in pain.
"Teacher!"
Li Ziqi lowered her head, speechless.
"Next time, I definitely won't become Teacher's burden. I won't let him worry about me!"
Ying Baiwu vowed in her heart.
The other captives also heaved a sigh of relief.
Because Sun Mo had consecutively risen by 3 stars in a single year, becoming the top ranker on the Great Teachers Hero Rankings, everyone had underestimated him.
After all, doing well in the examinations didn't mean that one would be strong in actual combat. But now, everyone was convinced.
They had experienced how difficult it was to deal with these aboriginals. If not, they wouldn't have become captives. But now, they were being oppressed by Sun Mo alone.
Mu Qianlin was the leader of this hunting group. Although Mu Qiansen wasn't the vice leader, he was the younger brother of the leader and the beloved son of an elder. If something were to happen to him, how would ordinary aboriginals be able to handle it?
There was no solution to it. He could only let Lian Fangcao wake up first. At the very least, everyone was from the same tribe and it was easier to talk to them.
"Sun Mo?"
Lian Fangcao rubbed her glabella, feeling an incomparable headache.
"I crippled Mu Qianlin."
Sun Mo made a long story short and quickly introduced the process.
"What?"
Lian Fangcao was shocked. She surveyed Sun Mo with a look of disbelief on her face. As for the latter part of his words, she completely ignored them.
"You aren't lying to me, right?"
Lian Fangcao instinctively didn't believe it.
Even if their relationship wasn't good, Mu Qianlin was still an expert of their tribe. Now that he was killed by an invader like Sun Mo, didn't that mean that the survival of their tribe was in danger?
"A few days later, when it comes down from the beanstalk, you will know."
Sun Mo persuaded patiently. "Fangcao, the nine provinces are too vast. There are millions of humans, and there are at least a few hundred thousand like me. But what about your people?"
"Even if it's ten for one, humans can still afford it."
"If all of you die, your tribe will be exterminated. But our population is huge, and a few years later, a new generation of great teachers will grow up."
The green-skinned big girl's expression turned ashen. In the end, she helplessly instructed, "Release all the captives."
"No way!"
The aboriginals didn't agree.
"If we can capture them once, we can capture them a second time. What are you guys afraid of?"
Lian Fangcao berated, "And you guys, return to the tribe first and listen to the tribe leader's instructions."
The green-skinned big girl was worried that Sun Mo would kill her tribesmen and wanted to send them away. She kept feeling that this fellow had a way to kill everyone.
"If you guys stay here and it dies, all of you will be implicated. But if you guys aren't here, the blame won't fall on your heads."
Sun Mo spoke.
Lian Fangcao glanced at Sun Mo but still translated for him.
As expected, the aboriginals didn't persist anymore and left one after another.
Lian Fangcao felt a little disappointed.
"Why don't you help me save him?"
Sun Mo casually sealed Mu Qiansen's meridians and then tossed him away. Even if Lian Fangcao didn't have a good relationship with him, Sun Mo couldn't kill him.
After all, this fellow was someone else's tribesman. If he killed him, Lian Fangcao would inevitably feel bad about it.
However, Mu Qiansen wouldn't be able to live. Even if those teachers and students didn't act, he would still bleed to death. Because his muscles had already been touched by Sun Mo's ancient massaging technique, the wound wouldn't heal automatically.
"..."
Mu Qiansen wanted to shout for help, but he discovered that he couldn't make any sound.
Why was this so?
(Could it be that human did something to me?)
As his blood flowed out, Mu Qiansen grew more and more terrified and regretful. (Why did I offend such a fellow for no reason?
I truly can't afford to offend him.)
"Teacher!"
After Lu Zhiruo was saved, she wanted to run toward Sun Mo. However, the other captives moved even faster.
"Teacher Sun, we have no way to repay your life-saving grace!"
"Teacher Sun, boohoohoo, thank you!"
"Teacher Sun, my name is Liu Tie. If you have any instructions for me in the future, feel free to speak. I will definitely do my best to help you."
The students directly knelt down, while the great teachers bowed 90 degrees with their hands clasped in front.
"Please rise!"
Sun Mo hurriedly gave way.
Ding!
Congratulations, you have received a total of + 71200 favorable impression points.
He still had to thank Mu Qiansen. If it wasn't for him killing a few people in public, everyone wouldn't feel that Sun Mo's kindness was so heavy.
"I'll kill you!"
A female great teacher lunged toward Mu Qiansen. The student who was killed was her personal student. Hence, she wanted to take revenge.
"What are you doing?"
Another great teacher hurriedly pulled her back. "That's Sun Mo's captive. You don't have the qualifications to touch him!"
"Teacher Sun, I'm sorry. I lost my composure."
The female great teacher apologized.
"I understand your feelings."
Sun Mo mentally mused. (Why are you pulling her back? Let her kill him. It saves me the trouble of doing it myself.)
"Oh right, when everyone is resting, don't drink the well water. I've sprinkled some mushroom powder in it. That thing has an intense drowsy effect."
Hearing this, Lian Fangcao smiled awkwardly, silently musing that Sun Mo was indeed prepared.
The other teachers and students were even more impressed. Look at Teacher Sun. How knowledgeable was he? He could even use mushroom powder to kill people.
"Teacher Sun, congratulations to your school in advance for ascending to the 'B' grade."
The famous schools sent their congratulations over.
For a competition like this, although the value of the secret treasures of darkness was the deciding factor, saving people was also a part of it.
For example, Sun Mo had saved tens of people in one go. The Central Province Academy would definitely not lower its grade. As for ascending, given Sun Mo's performance, it wouldn't be difficult.
"Everyone, listen to my advice and leave this forest!"
Sun Mo spoke sincerely and earnestly.
After hearing this, Lian Fangcao, who was feeling uneasy, was filled with a favorable impression of Sun Mo. Sun Mo was fulfilling his promise.
