63: You are fast, I am faster (please read on Monday)

“Do you know where my sheep are?”

The old shepherd looked up, chuckling.

His narrow eyes squinted into slits, revealing a mouthful of black, rotten teeth.

As he spoke,

the flock suddenly bleated “baa baa baa.”

The dozen or so sheep in front bleated anxiously at Pockmarked Face.

Yet, they couldn’t break free.

In their dark, yellowish sheep eyes, fear and anxiety flickered.

Pockmarked Face’s wide nose twitched; he actually smelled the aura of his subordinates on these sheep.

His expression changed slightly, and he thought of something.

Immediately, his horse-like eyes widened in fury, and he roared:

“What kind of demon are you?

You actually turned my subordinates into sheep!

Watch as this Emissary slaughters you!”

Pockmarked Face was enraged, raising his hand, a large palm formed of True Qi slammed towards the old shepherd.

The air shrieked.

It arrived suddenly.

But at that moment, an earth-shattering tiger roar sounded.

The old shepherd underwent an astonishing transformation.

His Physical Body let out crackling roars, his body rapidly swelled, and the human skin on his face instantly became distorted.

Something was clearly about to burst out from within!

In a breath, a Mountain Lord True Form four zhang tall appeared, letting out a roar.

The Void Realm immediately rippled, shattering the large palm of True Qi.

Then, a pair of yellowish-green tiger eyes, flickering with chilling killing intent, looked down at Pockmarked Face, whose expression had drastically changed.

“Are you the tiger who killed Scarlet Flood Dragon?”

Wu Ma’s eyelids twitched rapidly.

The oppressive demonic Qi before him made him genuinely feel the power Scarlet Flood Dragon had spoken of.

But then, remembering how this fellow had played him for a fool, he became incomparably enraged.

His eyes immediately turned gloomy, and with a neigh, his body revealed a ferocious demonic Qi.

His Physical Body swelled, and his body began to demonize.

In an instant, the black Devilish Qi dispersed.

He transformed into a humanoid demon with a completely black body, nearly two zhang tall, a black horse-like face, yellow fur on his face, and a long tail growing from his rump.

His dark horse-like eyes stared fixedly at the Mountain Lord before him, a muffled thunderous sound rumbling in his throat.

“Good, good, good. This Emissary wasn’t afraid that you, this old tiger, wouldn’t appear. I was searching for you everywhere.

Now it saves me trouble.

I ask you, did you take something from that foolish sheep?”

Chen Yuan, in his transformed Mountain Lord True Form, watched this horse-faced humanoid demon prance back and forth before him.

He found it quite foolish.

He raised a tiger claw.

A palm-sized golden scale suddenly appeared in his hand.

“Is this it?”

When Wu Ma saw that dazzling golden flash, a hint of joy and greed flickered in his eyes, and he immediately said, “This is something from my Feixian Sect. Mountain Lord, if you just return this golden scale to this Emissary, our Divine Sect will let bygones be bygones in the future, how about it?”

Chen Yuan scoffed at this, baring a mouthful of white teeth, staring at the other party, his tone chilling.

“What is the Feixian Sect?

And what are you?

Do I need you to let me go?”

As the last sentence fell, the Mountain Lord True Form moved wildly.

Then the air let out an explosive roar.

“You—” Wu Ma’s face changed slightly, his demonic body suddenly swayed, and he vanished from the air.

He turned into an afterimage, instantly moving a hundred meters away.

The next second, where he had originally been.

The huge Mountain Lord’s demonic body landed, and the ground suddenly collapsed, forming a crater dozens of meters in diameter.

Amidst the flying dust, Chen Yuan’s tiger eyes pierced through the dust, looking at Pockmarked Face.

This fellow seemed to have a Divine Ability related to speed.

“Not bad speed!”

He rumbled in his throat.

Meanwhile, Wu Ma’s face was sinister, his heart filled with shock and anger.

This tiger was truly boundless in its arrogance; it deserved to die.

Fortunately, his demon seed was the Daoli among demons, and the Divine Ability he cultivated was the fastest in the world; among the twelve members of the Feixian Sect, he was the fastest.

He sneered, “Give up. This Emissary is faster than you can ever reach.”

As he spoke, his expression turned grim, “Besides, my sect also has another Emissary nearby searching for you. They should be rushing here now that they’ve heard the commotion. Hmph, this Emissary advises you again: if you hand over the golden scale, I can let you leave now.”

“Oh, really?”

Chen Yuan was still wondering why Pockmarked Face said there were two Emissaries from the Feixian Sect this time, but he only saw one.

Perfect.

A quick battle.

His tiger eyes flashed with cold light, and the profound secret orifice under his left foot was furiously activated, generating wind.

The next second, the air suddenly let out a piercing shriek.

And Chen Yuan, in his Mountain Lord True Form, let out a roar from his original spot, transforming into a streak of light that shot towards Wu Ma.

In a breath.

He arrived before the humanoid demon.

A violent fist wind slammed towards it.

However, this Emissary Wu Ma’s pupils contracted, and abruptly, he shouted, “Hurry!”

Chen Yuan’s fist roared, piercing through the opponent’s figure.

But it was only an afterimage.

And at this moment, the opponent appeared a hundred meters away.

Chen Yuan let out a sneer, exploding again, his figure closely following.

“You—”

This time, the opponent’s expression finally changed.

His proud Divine Ability was actually easily caught up to by this Mountain Lord.

After he narrowly dodged Chen Yuan’s attack again,

he rolled on the ground,

and a neigh like a horse’s long whinny sounded.

Demonic Qi surged,

and this Feixian Sect Emissary transformed again.

He actually turned into a monster with a human head and a horse body.

This was the second stage of the demon seed’s transformation.

When the demon seed’s Fusion deepened, it would manifest more demonic characteristics, and after complete Fusion, it would become a true Vicious Beast.

This was the path sought by the Feixian Sect.

To completely betray the Human Race.

And seeing this human-headed horse transform, he heard a neigh.

His four horse hooves galloped wildly, as if his feet didn’t touch the ground, and his speed actually increased significantly again.

He galloped towards the eastern mountain forest.

Because Scarlet Flood Dragon had gone there.

Pockmarked Face swore he wasn't afraid of that arrogant tiger; rather, he wanted to meet up with Scarlet Flood Dragon, then slaughter the opponent together, so that his contribution wouldn't be forgotten.

At the same time, he thought to himself that with his second transformation, his speed had greatly increased, and that tiger should no longer be able to catch up.

But at this moment, a terrifying sonic boom pierced through the mountain forest.

And startled Pockmarked Face, making him look back!

The next second, his eyes were filled with horror.

In the distance, it was as if a terrifying ancient Vicious Beast was rampaging through the mountain forest, collapsing mountains and tearing through forests, rapidly approaching.

Then, a tiger roar.

He heard the earth tremble, followed by a huge shadow suddenly leaping into the air, then descending from the sky.

Slamming down fiercely towards Pockmarked Face.

“Boom!”

The earth shook.

Followed by a scream.

Chen Yuan’s Mountain Lord True Form landed, sending Wu Ma, who failed to dodge, flying with a punch.

The human-headed horse body tumbled through the mountain forest, knocking down trees, sliding for over a hundred meters before stopping.

Then, Chen Yuan’s foot shook again.

He leaped in front of this fellow.

This fellow’s Divine Ability seemed to be only in speed; his Physical Body was not strong. At this moment, his horse body was severely dented from the impact.

He was still uncontrollably coughing blood.

Seeing Chen Yuan pursue, Wu Ma was scared out of his wits.

He quickly got up, ready to flee for his life.

But he saw Chen Yuan’s figure surge, his fist letting out a piercing shriek in the air,

about to kill this fiend!

But at this moment, an explosive roar suddenly came from behind him.

Extremely fast!

Too late to dodge.

An ambush?

Chen Yuan’s expression sank.

Within his body, the humming Sword Qi roared.

Streaks of Sword Qi vibrated from his body, taking the blow from behind head-on.

The next second,

“Boom!”

The Sword Qi suddenly shrieked.

Then, a roar trembled.

Chen Yuan only felt as if his back had been struck by a heavy hammer, accompanied by astonishing heat.

Burning his flesh.

He could also hear sizzling sounds.

His expression twisted, and a hint of ferocity rose in the corner of his eye.

But this blow not only failed to interrupt his attack but also propelled him forward with its force.

He punched out, killing the opponent.

He heard a scream.

Pockmarked Face’s horse body was pierced through by Chen Yuan’s tiger claw.

His pupils wide, he looked back at Chen Yuan, filled with fear and unwillingness.

Chen Yuan’s face was expressionless, and his tiger arm shook.

“Boom!”

His Physical Body was shattered by the surging force.

Meeting the same fate as Wei Yang.

Blood and flesh splattered everywhere.

Then, Chen Yuan turned, his chilling tiger eyes looking towards the side and back, atop a low mountain peak.

A figure stood there, robes fluttering.

Red robes, a green mask.

A pair of pale golden vertical pupils, filled with indifference and dominance.

A raging inferno burned around him.

Scorching the surrounding Void Realm until it blurred!

It seemed this was

the second Emissary sent by the Feixian Sect!

Scarlet Flood Dragon!

Chen Yuan’s eyes narrowed.

He sensed a dangerous aura from this fellow.

Silver light flickered in his pupils,

but there was no unusual expression.

He spoke.

“You should have been here earlier.”

“Only now do you make a move.”

“I suppose you didn’t want to save your companion.”

Chen Yuan felt that the other party’s timing was just right,

leaving him no way to dodge, only able to take the blow head-on.

That’s why he had a guess.

Scarlet Flood Dragon heard him.

As if he had heard some funny joke,

a long hum like clashing metal rumbled in his throat.

“Heh heh, companion, Your Excellency jests.”

“Within the Divine Sect, it doesn’t matter to me who dies.”

“It’s even better if he dies.”

“Then no one will know I got the golden scale from you.”

“Of course!”

Scarlet Flood Dragon said with a smile, his pale golden vertical pupils filled with indifference, uttering a few words.

“You must die too!”

As the last sentence fell, the mountaintop suddenly roared.

And shattered.

A raging inferno burned, swooping down.
