Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Bang!

Right that instant, the slumbering beast suddenly opened its eyes, revealing a dark blue pair of eyes. It opened its jaws, seemingly yawning, and next, it started waving its adorable paws around.

Crack!

The gold crystal around it immediately cracked, while the gold crystals all over the palace also crumbled and turned into powder. Instantly, a bright gold radiance surged up, filling the area with a terrifying aura.

Howl! The cub howled.

Then, a long golden afterimage streaked out while the cub vanished from where it was. Immediately after this, Mo Liefeng collapsed onto the ground, a massive claw wound on his chest with black blood pouring out unceasingly.

The three watching this scene were filled with shock. At the same time, the same thought surfaced in their minds: Flee!

Mo Liefeng was able to force them to an impasse with a single attack, yet he was instantly killed by this cub. This sudden change was very hard for them to accept. This Jade Crystal Beast cub was too strong! They weren’t able to see clearly how the cub had attacked. They only saw a golden flash and then Mo Liefeng was already lying on the ground. That was too terrifying in terms of both attack prowess and speed.

After killing Mo Liefeng, the cub yawned again. Not a single stain of blood was left on its claw from the kill.

Nangong Qingxue yelled before vanishing with a flicker, “Split and run!” There were several exits from the palace. Cheng Kun also aimed for a different exit and streaked away. On the other hand, Ye Mo did not seem to have any intention of leaving. He stood still, wanting to figure out exactly why he was feeling this sense of familiarity.

Howl!

The cub aimed straight at Nangong Qingxue. It turned into a golden phantom that streaked in her direction.

“Stop!”

When Ye Mo saw the cub streaking towards Nangong Qingxue, he yelled and with his Technique of Interchangeability, he dashed forth and stabbed at the cub with his Sky Blood Spear.

“It’ speed dropped?” Right after Ye Mo yelled, the cub stopped moving. Because of that, the spear stabbed straight at the cub. The sound of a metallic collision rang out while the cub was sent flying.

“Senior sister, leave first!” Ye Mo yelled and blocked the exit Nangong Qingxue had left from.

“But...” Nangong Qingxue hesitated. If she left like that, Ye Mo’s death was certain.

“No buts. If you don’t leave now, you won’t have any chance,” Ye Mo said.

“I will return to you with reinforcements!” Nangong Qingxue clenched her teeth and sped away.

Ye Mo did not know whether he should laugh or cry. This senior sister was rather innocent and adorable. If the cub wanted to kill him, it would only need a split second. The hall was filled with a golden radiance. After crashing into the wall, the cub slid down onto the ground. It immediately stood back up and hovered in the air. A golden radiance swirled around it, giving the cub the appearance of a divine beast.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

A ruthless light flickered in its eyes. With its gaze fixed on Ye Mo, it howled and pounced at him.

Fortunately, Ye Mo was smart and was already aware of the terrifying speed this cub had. He activated two Wind Transformation Seals that he had prepared in advance, and together with his Technique of Interchangeability, his figure flickered and soared into the air, causing the cub to pounce on nothing.

“This cub is indeed an indiscriminate killer!” He gripped his spear tightly, causing the spear to shine dazzlingly before stabbing out at the cub.

Clang!

Earlier, the cub was sent flying by Ye Mo due to the attack being an ambush. This time, it clawed forth with its paw. Instantly, Ye Mo sensed an odd power gushing towards him before he was sent flying and crashing into the wall, creating a crater on the wall.

“This strength is too scary.” Ye Mo stared at his palms that were badly mangled from the impact. One ought to know that his flesh had reached rank three of the dragon blood.

“Howl! Howl! Howl!” The cub rubbed its head and let off some weird sounds while a mischievous glint surfaced in its eyes.

“I wish Ling’er was here. With the wide knowledge she has, she would know how to deal with this beast.” Ye Mo was starting to appreciate the importance of Ling’er. She was already an indispensable part of his path of cultivation.

“Damnable Cao Zhengchun!” Ye Mo cursed. Again, the Jade Crystal Beast cub pounced at him. It streaked forth, the golden streak slicing even the air into two.

“Damn it. Fine, let’s fight it out!” Ye Mo yelled and unleashed 3,000 streams of Bright Dragon Power. His hands transformed into dragon claws. He waved the claws in the air, creating several tens of dragon claw images in the air that all shot towards the Jade Crystal Beast cub.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

The Jade Crystal Beast cub did not bother dodging. It crashed straight into the claw images. After howling several times, it proceeded forward and pounced at Ye Mo again.

“It’s over.” Ye Mo immediately activated his Bright Dragon Armor to defend against the attack of the Jade Crystal Beast. Unfortunately, the moment the paws of the Jade Crystal Beast touched the armor, the armor fell apart.

Bang!

The strong impact caused Ye Mo to lose consciousness.

“Junior Sister Qingxue, the Jade Crystal Beast is too scary. I don’t think even Spirit Devour Realm experts could be its match.” The two survivors were currently on top of a certain mountain. Cheng Kun still had lingering fear in his heart.

“If it wasn’t for Ye Mo, I would have had no chance of escaping at all,” said Nangong Qingxue, evidently moved by what happened earlier.

The three were supposed to run in different directions. She was the first target of the Jade Crystal Beast, yet Cheng Kun continued fleeing without hesitation and cared only for himself. As for Ye Mo, he helped her without a second thought.

Ye Mo had decided to help despite his strength.

As a result, she had escaped while Ye Mo’s fate was unknown. Not a single man had ever stood forward bravely for her like that. Although Ye Mo had a weak cultivation level and although this was the first time they met, what Ye Mo did planted an odd feeling in her heart.

“This Ye Mo is indeed an upstanding individual. But even if he survives this, he might still fail to enter the Door of Desolation,” said Cheng Kun indifferently.

“If he can survive this, I will get the master to make an exception and hire him. That will work,” Nangong Qingxue said while nibbling on her lips. Nevertheless, she still shook her head after saying those words. Even an expert like Mo Liefeng was instantly killed. How could Ye Mo survive?

“Junior Sister Qingxue, let’s leave. If the Jade Crystal Beast comes out, things will be troublesome for us,” reminded Cheng Kun after snorting inwardly when he saw Nangong Qingxue gazing at the exit expectantly.

He had never seen such an expression on Nangong Qingxue before. Moreover, she was revealing such an expression for the sake of a male stranger.

“Um. I hope you are still alive when I return with reinforcements,” said Nangong Qingxue with a nod. They then unfurled their energy wings and flew away.
