Chapter 144 - Chen Ming’s Mutation (1/2)

Zhou Hao laughed hysterically after hearing what Lin Kai said.

“Hahaha. Chen Ming, what’s there to be proud of? No matter how powerful you are, you are no more than a p.a.w.n. Lin Kai doesn’t even view you as a person!”

Chen Ming was infuriated as Zhou Hao’s mockery was dead on the target.

“You are no better. You are one good pet yourself. If not because of Qin Feng, do you think you will reach where you are now?” Chen Ming kicked furiously and sent Zhou Hao flying backward.

“Urgh!” Blood splashed out from Zhou Hao’s mouth. If he were not protected by the rat king Chainmail given by Qin Feng, Zhou Hao’s internal organs would have been crushed now.

Chen Ming paced toward him slowly. Did Chen Ming ever regret up to this point? If only he had pretended to be Qin Feng’s buddy longer, would he be the same as Zhou Hao now? Would he also be supplied with martial arts techniques, carried by Qin Feng to hunt in the wild, and holding onto a beast-king-tier armor?

Who would have foreseen how strong Qin Feng had gotten now?

They started off equally as orphans but ended up in such a huge disparity.

‘What makes you so special that you are able to get all the benefits from Qin Feng? I cannot allow you to continue to enjoy things that should be mine!’ Thinking as such, Chen Ming raised his foot and stomped down viciously.

He was aiming for the head and Zhou Hao’s head would definitely be crushed if Chen Ming were to use his full force. Zhou Hao reflexively raised his elbow to block Chen Ming’s foot.

Before he felt the antic.i.p.ated pain, the person above him suddenly yelped.

Zhou Hao opened his eyes and caught a glimpse of a familiar figure.

His savior was not wearing any protective gear and his scarlet uniform remained untouched after the three-day expedition.

The saber on his waist was still glaring to the eyes, though the scabbard had concealed most of its radiance.

It was none other than Qin Feng. He had made it in the nick of time.

“How dare you compare yourself to Zhou Hao?” Qin Feng scoffed coldly at Chen Ming. “Of course, there’s a difference. He is my brother while you are just someone’s pet. You think too highly of yourself.”

Chen Ming was clutching his belly after being kicked by Qin Feng. His whole body was quivering after the impact. But it was Qin Feng’s words that had hurt him the most.

“I am not his p.a.w.n. Lin Kai is the one thinking too highly of himself. He is nothing more than tras.h.!.+” Chen Ming bellowed exasperatedly.

Lin Kai’s eyes widened in disbelief. He did not expect those words to come out from his pet’s mouth.

“Chen Ming, are you insane? I am going to kill you!”

Chen Ming laughed hideously. He then struck rampantly.

“I have been putting up with you for too long now. Die!”

Chen Ming dashed toward Lin Kai and grabbed him. In the process, his fingers suddenly transformed into sharp wolf paws. It was an actual transfiguration and not the usual materialization of inner energy.

Qin Feng and Zhou Hao were startled by the sudden turn of events.

They immediately understood what happened to Chen Ming. After all, they had once hunted down someone with similar capabilities--Viper.

“You are a mutant subject?!” Zhou Hao exclaimed. But his exclamation was submerged by a horrible screech.
