62: Killing the Clouded Leopard (Part 2)

Gu Yuchuan approached step by step, while the Cloud Leopard retreated step by step. His expression was extremely flustered, and his mind was now on the verge of collapse. He looked at Gu Yuchuan, his gaze gradually turning cold.

"What exactly do you mean? What do you know? Speak!"

If he had hands, Gu Yuchuan would have clapped. Unfortunately, he didn't, so he could only let out a cold snort.

"Finally stopped pretending, haven't you? Right, it's better this way; you won't have to hold it in for so long. As for what I mean, you know very well, son of the Cloud Mist Spirit Leopard, the Vice Sect Master of the Beast Taming Sect. Am I right?"

The Cloud Leopard's heart sank to the bottom. With a wave of his hand, a barrier surrounded the two of them, and his gaze was filled with deep killing intent: "You know too much. Prepare to die."

However, Gu Yuchuan was the first to move. Compared to the Cloud Leopard's hatred, the hatred in Gu Yuchuan's heart was even more intense. After all, this Cloud Leopard had killed him twice in the Simulations. That was twice! He had a blood feud with him and was determined to kill him now.

He raised his tail and shot out three drops of Heavenly Profound Heavy Water. Of these three drops of spiritual water, one targeted his Physical Body, one blocked his path of retreat, and one was aimed into the air. He had no way to dodge. Gu Yuchuan understood that the Cloud Leopard was very fast, so he didn't expect all three drops to hit; two were used to restrict his movement, ensuring that if even one hit, the opponent would find it difficult to resist.

However, Gu Yuchuan had overestimated the situation. Since the Cloud Leopard had already been exposed, he no longer needed to hide the methods he had learned from the Human Race. A dazzling treasure light erupted from his body, and his entire fur became incredibly smooth. That drop of Heavenly Profound Heavy Water actually slid off his fur; this move of overcoming hardness with softness was very impressive.

But Gu Yuchuan's attack wasn't over yet. The two drops of Heavenly Profound Heavy Water that hit the ground actually transformed into two ice flowers. Their petals were like flying daggers, shooting towards the Cloud Leopard. The speed of these flying daggers was extremely fast, and since they were so close to the Cloud Leopard, he couldn't react in time and was injured by them.

Now, both his front and hind legs were injured. For a Cloud Leopard known for its agility, this significantly impacted his combat power. However, his expression remained fierce, and his eyes were full of killing intent, clearly indicating he still had a trump card. Thus, Gu Yuchuan remained very cautious.

The Cloud Leopard roared: "Snake demon, you indeed have some tricks, but that's all. A native of the Yao Race like you has never seen the brilliant development of the Immortal Dao. You are just a frog in a well, able only to see the patch of sky above you. Are you ready to die?"

When it came to verbal sparring, Gu Yuchuan would truly not lose. Which young person from Huaxia didn't know the 'national essence' of trash-talking? If you didn't, it would be hard to protect your family in the late-night sessions of Honor of Kings and Identity V. Coincidentally, Gu Yuchuan was proficient in both. To avoid being muted, he knew far too many ways to make someone break down without using a single swear word.

"Oh, you're absolutely right. The Human Race's Immortal Dao is indeed powerful—so powerful that as soon as the battle started, you lost three cities. By the way, why didn't your mother join the fight? Was she afraid of being killed instantly by our Yao General? I suggest you cherish your identity in the Beast Taming Sect, because it's about to be gone soon."

The Cloud Leopard had been brainwashed. In his heart, the Beast Taming Sect was the most powerful Sect in the world, and the Human Race was the most powerful race. Any monster should bow down before the Human Race. Gu Yuchuan's sarcastic and cynical mockery made him completely lose his composure. He pulled out a Talismanic Incantation, and a tornado struck towards Gu Yuchuan.

This was a Grade Two Talismanic Incantation, the Hurricane Tornado Talismanic Incantation. Its power was immense, and even an ordinary Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivator would find it hard to resist. Sure enough, Gu Yuchuan's body was torn to shreds. However, before the Cloud Leopard could even start laughing, he found Gu Yuchuan standing right in front of him.

His eyes widened in disbelief. It turned out that while he was talking just now, Gu Yuchuan had already activated his invisibility and Clone. Leaving the Clone in place, his true body had already moved. That precious Talismanic Incantation had hit the Clone entirely, causing no impact on Gu Yuchuan at all.

His eyes were now truly filled with fear. He didn't understand why things had turned out this way. He was also a top figure in the Qi Refinement Perfection Realm. Although he was only a Medium Grade Yao Beast, his Cultivation Technique was learned from the Human Race and was indeed more powerful than those of the Yao Race. He even had some reputation. But now, facing Gu Yuchuan, he felt like a child with no ability to resist.

However, he wouldn't admit defeat. But Gu Yuchuan's attack had already arrived before him. Two giant pythons formed from water opened their bloody maws, and Gu Yuchuan himself raised his tail to strike. For a moment, he could only desperately defend.

But now, Gu Yuchuan was already a Dragon Snake. Whether it was his Water Control Talent or his Physical Body, both had been greatly enhanced. When he struck the Cloud Leopard, the latter felt his blood and Qi churning. After two exchanges, he spat out several mouthfuls of blood, and the injuries on his legs became even more severe.

"Traitor, are you ready to die? Instead of being a king of the Yao Race, you insisted on being a dog for the Human Race. Your fate was sealed long ago. Prepare to die."

But the Cloud Leopard burst out laughing, with not a hint of fear in his eyes: "Snake demon, do you really think I'm that stupid? This scout mission seemed flawless, but in fact, I knew that this area of a hundred miles had already been searched once. There was no need to search it again. Besides, the Black Tortoise Demon General has specialized scouts by his side. So, this mission was unusual. Did you really think I wouldn't notice or have a backup plan?"

He laughed loudly, like a villain in a movie. Gu Yuchuan became cautious, waiting to see what his backup plan was. Suddenly, he felt a crisis of death, and all his scales stood on end. He didn't know where the attack was coming from, but he knew that if it hit him, he would surely die. Fortunately, he had a Golden Light Talismanic Incantation. After activating the Talismanic Incantation, a golden light enveloped him. Immediately after, a wind blade struck the golden light.

Even with the protection of the Talismanic Incantation, he was still sent flying several meters. After falling to the ground, he spat out a mouthful of blood. He finally saw the person who had ambushed him: a pure white leopard. It was the Cloud Leopard's mother, the Cloud Mist Spirit Leopard, a powerhouse at the Great Perfection of Foundation Establishment.
