666 Killing Hou Jingfeng (2/2)

What Mo Wen had not expected was that the physical strength he had expended in the past few days had all been recovered as well.

”Congratulations, Mo Wen on completing the task. You have performed excellently in this task and managed to steal the beast king's treasure. You will receive the biggest prize.”

”Congratulations, Pei Fengwu on completing this task. You have helped your teammates many times in this task and performed well. You will receive a special prize for this task.”

”Congratulations, Hou Jingfeng, on completing this task. However, your performance in the task was average. You will receive the ordinary prize in the task.”

”Congratulations, Gong Zhangyan, on completing this task. However, your performance in the task was average. You will receive the ordinary prize in the task.

Mo Wen and the others could hear the voice inside their heads. The message of the Tower Spirit meant that they had completed their task.

”No! What's happening. No…!”

Hou Jingfeng took a large step back. His eyes were filled with fear and he was in no mood to listen to what the tower spirit had to say. That was because he discovered that Mo Wen had recovered completely and was in his peak state. He no longer had any injuries.

The white pillar of light had restored everyone's conditions to their peak state in just a blink of an eye. Indeed, Hou Jingfeng had returned to his peak condition too. However, he was not excited at all but only felt fear and flustered.

When a tiger ends up on the fields, it would be bullied by dogs. And when a dragon falls onto the shore, it would be teased by prawns.

He had dared to challenge Mo Wen when Mo Wen was seriously injured. But when Mo Wen was at his peak condition…

Mo Wen smiled and then secretly replaced the top-grade healing light that he had been holding in his hands back into the medicine spiritual ring. He had not expected something like this to happen at such a crucial moment. The tower spirit had announced their completion of the task at a time like this and had so kindly restored their health.

”Hou Jingfeng, weren't you very arrogant? You wanted to kill me, right?” Mo Wen smiled lightly and started to approach Hou Jingfeng. His aura was thick, strong and endless. It was no different from a warrior at the pinnacle of the Golden Elixir realm.

”How is this possible!” Hou Jingfeng could not help but scream hysterically because of the sudden and sharp turn of events. He screamed as he ran. He knew that he was no match for Mo Wen now.

What did treasure, or the beast king's treasure box matter now? Compared to his life, they were all worthless.

If Mo Wen allowed Hou Jingfeng to run away now, then he would not be Mo Wen.

Clang!

There was a crisp sound. The Cries of Hades Bell started to shake gently. Hou Jingfeng froze where he stood. He vomited blood every time the bell shook.

Mo Wen did not even move. However, the Cries of Hades Bell continued to shake and Hou Jingfeng continued to vomit blood. His body started to dry up oddly as if his blood was being drawn out and he was drying up bit by bit.

In a short while, Hou Jingfeng's body exploded into a cloud of blood.

Mo Wen had known what would happen. What was unexpected was that bits of blood-colored glimmer appeared from the mist of blood and gathered, rushing toward Mo Wen and enveloping him.

”You have killed your teammate. This is your first warning. You are now covered in blood and will doubly attract the attacks from illusionary beasts. There will also be a 10% deduction to your cultivation levels. If you kill your opponent again, 20 % of your cultivation will be deducted.”

The tower spirit's voice suddenly rang out. Mo Wen smiled bitterly. He had not expected that he would be punished for killing human warriors.

He was however fine with being covered in blood and attracting twice the number of illusionary beasts. He was even rather pleased with it. However, he was a little upset at having 10 % deducted from his cultivation levels.

Mo Wen could sense his inner Qi decreasing by a little. It was as if that portion of cultivation had disappeared without any trace.

He could perhaps enter the intermediate stage of the Golden Elixir realm if he killed one or two other monstrous beasts at the pinnacle of the seventh level. His original cultivation levels should be high enough to allow him to do so.

However, he now needed to kill at least seven Lord Monstrous Beasts to advance in his cultivation once again.

Furthermore, he would suffer an even greater punishment if he killed a human warrior again. The rule that he could not kill his teammates was rather bothersome.

”Mo Wen, you killed Hou Jingfeng!”

Mo Wen had killed Hou Jingfeng in the blink of an eye. Hou Jingfeng had not even had the chance to defend himself.

Pei Fengwu regained her wits then and said somewhat worriedly, ”You are too rash. Hou Jingfeng was the most talented disciple of the Ming Temple and he was being groomed as the future temple leader. You killing him could well mean starting an unresolvable feud with the Ming Temple.
