The Eternal Supremacy - Chapter 41
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“How is it possible that Lu Susu defeated the Giant Black Ape?” Ji Mo was shocked. Lu Susu was obviously injured, and her True Qi was diminishing. It was just not possible for her to have defeated this Giant Black Ape that was in the midst of such excitement. Furthermore, its injuries were so devastating.
“It’s the magical talisman. Lu Susu used the magical talisman!” exclaimed Huo Lin’er, who was on Ji Mo’s back, as she pointed to a pile of ashes on the ground. “The ashes are from the overactivated magical talisman. If a magical talisman is overactivated, it’ll self-ignite, I think Lu Susu was at the end of her wits, so she used a powerful magical talisman. Otherwise, it’d have been impossible to cause such terrible injuries to this Giant Black Ape.”
“You mean Lu Susu escaped?” Ji Mo frowned. The woman was ruthless, and letting her escape could be a mistake.
“She should be nearby. Lu Susu’s injuries don’t seem that light,” Huo Lin’er said.
Ji Mo put Huo Lin’er on the ground. He turned around and walked towards the Giant Black Ape. Its chest had a gaping hole and it was obvious that it would not live as it only had a few last breaths left. However, this would save Ji Mo a lot of effort. He smirked and brutally stomped it with his foot.
Ji Mo injected Celestial Devil Power into that single stomp. The Giant Black Ape was already dying, so even if it was at its prime and could match a Qi Plundering Boundary master, it was unable to retaliate against his trampling.
Splat!
As the Giant Black Ape was torn apart by Ji Mo’s foot, bright red blood mixed with pale brain matter splattered everywhere. Huo Lin’er turned her head slightly at the sight of this gory scene as it was unbearable for her. Ji Mo recklessly flipped the corpse around and finally pulled out a black demonic core.
That demonic core was different from ordinary ones. The pebble-sized demonic core was covered in circular patterns that were like stars circling the demonic core and it seemed divine.
“This pattern is said to be only possessed by demonic beasts with talents and divine power. It turns out that this Giant Black Ape is also an alien with divine powers,” Ji Mo said in shock.
Huo Lin’er nodded and said, “Giant Black Apes evolved from the golden monkeys. Their bloodlines are originally unique and there are traces that it takes on characteristics of its ancestors. It’s not a surprise that these demonic beasts from the beastmaster species have divine powers.”
“Oh, this looks like this is a great harvest. I picked up a good bargain for no particular reason.” Ji Mo happily kept the Qi Plundering Boundary demonic core. There was enormous demonic Qi within the demonic core which he believed would increase his ability by a fold.
“Ji Mo, we still have some important things to do.” Huo Lin’er grew serious without her beauty even diminishing.
“Is it Lu Susu?” Ji Mo squinted.
“Yes,” Huo Lin’er gritted her teeth and said, “Lu Susu thought of a thousand ways to kill me. If she escapes, God knows what she will do the next time. This woman is blinded by hatred and is very stubborn. If I don’t kill her, I daren’t imagine what she will do in the future.”
Ji Mo seemed to have learned a lot from Huo Lin’er who was a Qi Plundering Boundary master and had accumulated more experience than himself. Therefore, she understood the brutality of the cultivation world better than him. There were times when some people had to be killed without hesitation. Otherwise, it would cause unwanted trouble in the future. There was no right or wrong in the cultivation world, only life and death.
Ji Mo nodded aggressively at the thought of that.
Tens of kilometers away on the side of a small stream, there was blood smeared on Lu Susu’s chest. Her fair skin was stained with traces of blood while her beautiful face was exceptionally pale. “That damned animal wasted my powerful magical talisman. Also, Huo Lin’er and that chap got lucky this time. Once my injuries are nursed, I won’t let you continue living. Hmph, Huo Lin’er, you won’t even get to go back to the school!”
After she said that, Lu Susu could not help spitting a mouthful of blood out which made her even paler.
“Senior Sister Lu, is that you?” A voice was heard at that moment. Nearby, a young boy walked over. He was one of the three little warlords from Tianyuan Academy, Wan Qinghe.
Wan Qinghe was the other pride of Tianyuan Academy besides Nan Hao. He had an eighth-tier tempered body cultivation base despite having only cultivated for slightly more than half a year. This terrifying cultivation speed found favor in the eyes of the academy’s senior management and they specially groomed Wan Qinghe.
However, he acted with extreme arrogance and disrespect. His reputation was even more terrifying than Nan Hao’s. Everyone in Tianyuan Academy knew that Wan Qinghe was a little warlord who should not be provoked.
At first, Wan Qinghe planned to join Du Jia and others for the Hunting Competition, but he was pretentious since his childhood, so he decided to go alone. With his power of an eighth-tier tempered body, dealing with ordinary demonic beasts was an easy feat for him. As long as it was not a Qi Plundering Boundary demonic cultivator, the other demonic beasts were no match for him.
At one point, he saw Lu Susu badly injured by the stream. Wan Qinghe could not bear the sight of it as he knew her and he knew that she was an inner disciple of the Tianshan Sword Sect, so she could be considered his senior. Now that she was alone and injured, Wan Qinghe’s curiosity increased.
“It’s you, Junior Brother Wan. You came at the right time.” When she saw Wan Qinghe, Lu Susu’s pale face squeezed out a smile complemented by her charming looks. Parts of her clothes had been torn during the earlier duel, revealing her fair skin and one could almost see the pink dudou within. That scene riveted Wan Qinghe’s gaze and he did not know what to do.
“What? Do you want to give me a hand?” Looking at Wan Qinghe standing in a daze, Lu Susu grinned and lifted her hand.
“Okay…I’m coming.” Wan Qinghe smiled in his heart and he thought that he was pretty fortunate with women that day, so he went to help Lu Susu up.
Lu Susu conveniently fell into his arms and said, “Junior Brother Wan, I’m injured now and I need a place to nurse the injuries. Are you willing to protect me?”
“Of course, I’m willing to, Senior Sister.” Wan Qinghe grinned and then put his hands on Lu Susu’s tiny waist with his palms in a slightly inappropriate area.
Lu Susu rolled her eyes at him, but there was no intention to accuse him, hence boosting Wan Qinghe’s confidence. He never thought that he would have such luck in a deserted place like this. If he could have a relationship with Lu Susu who was a Tianshan Sword Sect inner disciple, his path would be much easier when he joined the sect in the future.
“Senior Sister, who did this to you? Let me know and I’ll avenge you,” Wan Qinghe spoke into Lu Susu’s ear.
Speaking of that, intense murderous aura emerged in Lu Susu’s eyes, and she snorted angrily. “It was a little b*tch and an outer disciple who has no idea what he’s up against. Once I recover, I’ll hunt them down. They deserve to die!”
After a while, she finally cooled down.
“What the f*ck? It looks like you’re hiding here, Senior Sister Lu. You were so difficult to find.” A voice was heard at that instant, and a figure emerged from the forest. It was Ji Mo with Huo Lin’er lying with her torso against his back and her arms around his neck.
