229: Chapter 229 Come on, let's play a little game of despair!

Out of professional habit as a Beast Tamer,

Cao Kun was in no hurry to strike.

He habitually called out to the System in his mind.

He wanted to see if this Second Senior Sister Bai Suyin could be bound as a top-quality Jade Beast.

To be honest, this Second Senior Sister really did look quite good.

She had delicate features and a decent figure; it would be a bit of a waste to just kill her if she met the capture criteria.

After all, the mission rewards given by the System were always more worthwhile than items obtained through robbery.

However, the System's notification tone immediately extinguished all of Cao Kun's interest.

[Ding! Investigation complete!]

[Target Name: Second Senior Sister Bai Suyin]

[Physique Assessment: Mediocre, no special Bloodline or Physique bonuses.]

[Heart-Nature Assessment: Inwardly hypocritical and envious, outwardly virtuous and upright, but actually narrow-minded with extreme jealousy.]

[Comprehensive Conclusion: Does not meet the minimum standard for Jade Beast collection!]

[Suggestion: Host, please do not waste your time.]

After listening, Cao Kun's lips twitched.

Well then, the System even went as far as to suggest not wasting time.

Just how unqualified must she be for the System to despise her this much?

Cao Kun cursed inwardly at his bad luck.

Looking all dignified on the outside, she turned out to be a defective product.

Since even the System looked down on her, there was no need to show any tender pity for the fragrance or jade.

Cao Kun withdrew his gaze from Second Senior Sister Bai Suyin and lifted the chaos divine sword in his hand.

"Fairy Bai, I don't really have many other hobbies."

"It's just that when I encounter trash, I like to clean it up promptly."

"Since that's the case, let's play a thrilling little game."

Second Senior Sister Bai Suyin froze and took a wary step back: "What nonsense are you talking about?!"

"Aren't you the Senior Sister Bai they all revere? The second-ranked Prodigy among the current generation of Taichu Holy Land Disciples?"

Cao Kun approached step by step.

"Today, let's see how many lives you, as their Senior Sister, can save from my hands."

"Every person you save can leave Blood Crystal Valley alive."

"As for those you can't save... you can only blame your own lack of ability, Fairy Bai!"

As his voice fell, Cao Kun's figure suddenly vanished from the spot.

The next second, he appeared on the right flank of the Taichu Disciples.

"The little game has begun. The first strike, catch it well."

The chaos divine sword in Cao Kun's hand didn't cut down; the blade merely swept across the shoulder of an Early Void Refinement Stage Disciple.

*Squelch!*

The Disciple's entire right arm flew off.

A pillar of blood erupted.

"Aaaaaah—! Senior Sister Bai! Save me! Save me!!"

The male cultivator screamed as he fell to the ground, his howls echoing through the valley.

Second Senior Sister Bai Suyin's figure blurred as she rushed over, her long sword transforming into a white light to strike at Cao Kun's arm.

*Clang!*

The chaos divine sword effortlessly parried Second Senior Sister Bai Suyin's full-strength blow.

Second Senior Sister Bai Suyin's strike missed, and she hurriedly turned to check the injuries of the Disciple with the severed arm.

But Cao Kun had already taken the next step, walking toward another Disciple.

He deliberately slowed down his movements.

Every sword strike precisely avoided vital organs.

But every strike was enough to make the hit Disciple lose the ability to resist.

Severed arms, severed legs, pierced Collarbones, and cut Hand tendons.

Those Disciples who lost their combat strength fell into pools of blood, rolling and struggling in pain, their screams rising and falling one after another.

Each time Cao Kun struck, he would complete it just a moment before Second Senior Sister Bai Suyin was about to arrive.

When Second Senior Sister Bai Suyin ran over,

She would watch with her own eyes as the hope of being rescued ignited in her fellow Disciples' eyes.

And then, right before her eyes, Cao Kun would use the most cruel method to personally extinguish that hope!

"Senior Sister Bai, save me!!"

"I don't want to die here! Please, take us away!"

"It hurts so much... Senior Sister... my legs are gone... my Dao Foundation is ruined..."

Screams, pleas for help, and wails intertwined.

Blood Crystal Valley had completely turned into a living hell.

Second Senior Sister Bai Suyin's eyes were red as she ran back and forth through the crowd; as soon as one fell in the east and she went to save them, another would fall in the west.

Her movement technique was fast enough, but Cao Kun was always half a step faster than her.

"Tsk tsk tsk, too slow, Fairy Bai."

"Look, you failed to save another one. They call you Senior Sister, yet you can only watch them become cripples. What's to be done?"

Looking at the tragic state of her fellow Disciples, Second Senior Sister Bai Suyin's eyes were bloodshot, and her Dao Heart was in total chaos.

She could not accept that her proud cultivation was so vulnerable before this man at the Late Soul Transformation Stage.

"Enough!!"

Second Senior Sister Bai Suyin bit the tip of her tongue and sprayed a mouthful of essence blood onto her natal flying sword.

The essence blood burned, and the Flying Sword became sentient!

She poured all of her spiritual power and her entire cultivation foundation into this single strike without reservation.

The sword light surged hundreds of feet, transforming into a terrifying Frost Giant Dragon that slashed toward Cao Kun!

This strike was the strongest of her life.

"Go to hell!!!"

However,

Facing this strike made with all her might,

Cao Kun used only two fingers to easily catch it, preventing it from advancing even a fraction of an inch further.

*Snap!*

With a slight application of force, the natal flying sword was snapped directly.

Second Senior Sister Bai Suyin suffered a backlash and stumbled forward.

Cao Kun took the opportunity to grab her collar and yanked her forcefully toward him.

Immediately after, he raised his left hand, pressed it against the back of Second Senior Sister Bai Suyin's head, and slammed her into the ground.

She struggled desperately, but Cao Kun's hand was like a great mountain, pinning her down so she couldn't move.

"Let me go! You Devil Head!"

Cao Kun sneered and grabbed Second Senior Sister Bai Suyin's long hair.

"Open your damn eyes wide."

"Look closely."

Second Senior Sister Bai Suyin was forced to lift her head, and into her sight came those Junior Brothers and Junior Sisters wailing in pain in pools of blood.

"They were all calling for you to save them just now."

"But you couldn't save them."

After saying that, Cao Kun grabbed Second Senior Sister Bai Suyin's hair and dragged her forward.

Second Senior Sister Bai Suyin's knees rubbed against the ground, trailing a long streak of blood.

Cao Kun walked to those few Disciples who were still wailing in pain.

He raised his sword and let it fall.

*Puff!*

Several heads rolled in front of Second Senior Sister Bai Suyin, their eyes still staring at her, filled with despair.

"Did you see clearly?"

Cao Kun asked.

"They all died here because you were incompetent."

"No... it's not like that..." Second Senior Sister Bai Suyin's voice trembled.

"Not like that?" Cao Kun sneered.

"Then who brought them here? Who received Mo Yao's message and rushed over?"

"It was you, Fairy Bai."

Immediately following that, Cao Kun gave her no time to think.

He dragged her along as he continued toward the Disciples who were still crying for help.

By the time the last Taichu Disciple fell in a pool of blood,

Her Dao Heart had shattered into a pile of debris, and her mind had completely broken.

She clutched her head and let out a shrill, piercing scream.

"Devil Head! You Devil Head! You will die a horrible death! You will surely suffer Heavenly Punishment!"

Cao Kun let go of her hair and shook the blood off his hands in disgust.

"Get it straight! It's your Taichu Holy Land that's been like a sticky plaster, bothering me time and time again, with bounties and Wanted Orders."

"At most, this counts as Self-defense."

"After all, if my strength were insufficient today and I really fell into the hands of you Hypocrites who are full of benevolence and morality, I imagine my current fate would be a hundred times more miserable than yours, wouldn't it?"

"In your next life, remember to keep your eyes open and don't provoke people you can't afford to mess with."

As his voice fell,

The Sword Qi of the chaos divine sword flashed and vanished.

Second Senior Sister Bai Suyin's head flew high, and her headless corpse collapsed into the pool of blood.

With this, the dozens of Core Disciples from the Taichu Holy Land who had entered the Ancient God Ruins, including the leaders Head Disciple and Second Senior Sister Bai Suyin,

Were completely wiped out.

...

At the same time,

Outside the Ancient God Ruins.

On the heavenly dao golden list, the remaining names from the Taichu Holy Land began to dim on a large scale once again.

Only those two characters for Cao Kun grew brighter and brighter!

Like a small sun, it fiercely stung the eyes of the Holy Lord of Taichu, which were nearly spitting fire!
