Chapter 363 (2/2)
“You misunderstand . I’m not angry . Your comprehension skills towards soul arts are just too shocking . Although these are all just introductory soul arts for true soul cultivators, the speed at which you comprehend them is terrifying . It feels like quite a blow to me,” laughed Lu Fang-er a bit bitterly .
These ‘introductory’ soul arts were all foundational techniques that included a wide range of topics involving soul energy . There were ways to nourish, export, control, and erupt out with soul energy . These techniques had required half a year for Lu Fang-er to just barely be able to control them .
Although Lu Fang-er had never viewed herself as being extremely talented, she was still above average in the Wind Spirit Pavilion . Otherwise, she wouldn’t have had the qualifications to enter the Jiuli secret realm .
And yet, in front of Long Chen, she felt as if her own skills had received a huge blow . Although she knew Long Chen was a pill cultivator and his Spiritual Strength wouldn’t be lacking, Long Chen had only just started learning about this topic . Just his comprehension skills had given her a heavy blow . Was he some kind of genius from legends?
“There’s people ahead . ”
Long Chen had been in the midst of trying to think of a way to change this awkward topic when several figures appeared in front of them .
There were a total of four people . One of them was an ordinary core disciple, while the other three were Favored . Their auras were extremely stable, making their strength very stable .
In front of the four of them lay a huge Magical Beast . Long Chen was astonished to see that it was a fourth rank Magical Beast .
Fourth rank Magical Beasts were all powerful . From their postures, it was obvious this Magical Beast had been killed by just the four of them .
“You don’t need to be surprised . That’s just a Black-Tooth Porcupine . It’s one of the weakest existences amongst fourth rank Magical Beasts . It’s normal for it to be killed by them,” explained Lu Fang-er when she saw Long Chen’s astonished expression .
As a Beast Tamer, her ability in identifying Magical Beasts was number one . She would even be able to recognize some Magical Beasts that only existed in legends just based on their outer form .
Furthermore, dhe not only knew their names, she also knew their ranks, techniques, attacking methods, and weak points . That was the knowledge all Beast Tamers consumed in preparation for the future .
Long Chen hadn’t been able to recognize it, but Lu Fang-er had seen through it with just a glance . This Magical Beast was the weakest possible kind of fourth rank Magical Beast . It couldn’t even compare to her two old housepets, let alone the Scarlet Blaze Lion .
The fact that their group was able to kill it without losing a single member definitely meant they weren’t weak, but there was nothing overly shocking about it .
They had just finished cutting open its head and taking out its crystal core when they suddenly saw Long Chen and Lu Fang-er .
With Long Chen present, Lu Fang-er had no worries about safety . Atop the Golden-Scaled Bull, the two of them were both very safe .
Magical Beasts that were a lower rank than it would all flee in fright . As for Magical Beasts on the same level as it, Long Chen would naturally handle them .
“That little fellow seems to be the person in the photographic jades . ” The four of them stared closely at the two of them .
“You’re right, it’s him . That brat really does have luck with woman . Another woman’s in his hands, and she’s so beautiful . ” One of the Favored swallowed when he saw Lu Fang-er’s face .
They glanced at each other and sinister smiles appeared on their faces . They slowly approached the two of them .
Just what kind of person was Long Chen? Just from a look at their gazes, he knew what these idiots were thinking .
From their robes, he could see they all came from the same Righteous sect . But he didn’t recognize the particular sect marking on their robes .
Seeing the four of them approach them, Lu Fang-er ordered her Magical Beasts to stop . She cautiously looked at the four of them . “Four senior apprentice-brothers from the Cloud Returning Cave, the two of us only ran into you by chance here . We harbor no malice . ”
The Favored at the front replied, “Junior apprentice-sister, you don’t need to be afraid . As fellow members of the Righteous path, we definitely won’t harm you . We’ll rescue you from this pervert’s hands . ”
“You’ve misunderstood . I am friends with Long Chen, and we’re just exploring . What rescue are you talking about?”
Long Chen merely sat on the bull’s back without saying anything . He just watched as these four people surrounded them, simply smiling slightly from the start .
“Junior apprentice-sister from the Wind Spirit Pavilion, you don’t need to be afraid . Although Long Chen is despicable and shameless, vicious and malicious, with the four of us present, he definitely won’t be able to harm even a single hair on your head . ” The head Favored then pointed at Long Chen and cursed, “Brazen Long Chen, you rape women, and then ma.s.sacre fellow Righteous disciples . Today the four of us will take the place of the Heavenly Daos to punish you . Do you have anything to say? Don’t think the four of us don’t know you’ve seized this woman and are forcing her to speak for you . If you’re smart, you’ll immediately release this junior apprentice-sister . Otherwise, the four of will have to hack you into a thousand pieces and turn your bones to ashes . ”
Lu Fang-er’s expression sunk and she icily said, “You really are just deliberately provoking us . I’ve already said we’re friends . Why do you keep talking about rescue?”
“Don’t be afraid junior apprentice-sister . We definitely won’t let you be degenerated by this pervert,” said the Favored Righteously .
As they had conversed, the four of them had been constantly moving . Now there were just thirty meters from the Golden-Scaled Bull . Suddenly, one of them shouted, “Now!”
A ball shot out towards the Golden-Scaled Bull’s head . When it was less than a couple meters away, it exploded, releasing a yellow powder . A faint smell filled the air .
