Chapter 123 - I Don’t Trust You (1/2)

The two Jiao Dragons abruptly stomped their feet on the ground, the deceleration from movement to stand still happened in only a split second. Zhong Yue overlooked the two monster Qi Practitioners that hindered his path and shifted his sights to that Senior Martial Brother Lu, before finally falling onto the young lady hiding behind that monster senior martial brother. He furrowed his brows and commanded, "Move."

Senior Martial Brother Lu was startled, he shook his head as he laughed, "Ever since I was born, no monster has ever dare to speak to me like this before, do you know who I am?"

Zhong Yue then turned his gaze back to him, looking down from above, he asked, "Then what identity do you hold?"

Senior Martial Brother Lu simply smiled while maintaining his silence.

One of the Qi Practitioners before him took a step forward and stomped his feet abruptly on the ground. A patch of soil bulged out beneath Zhong Yue and suddenly —Dang!— stone pillars shot up abruptly and shot towards the Jiao Dragons' belly. He sneered coldly and said, "Senior Martial Brother Lu is the young master of the Lord of Fengsha Island! Heard of the Fengsha Island? It stands alongside the Sulphur Island and Jinxiu Island. The Lord of Fengsha Island also stands alongside with the Lord of Sulphur Island and Lord of Jinxiu Island! If you are smart enough, you'll turn back now and leave!"

Zhong Yue stood on the dragon heads while the Jiao Dragons lifted their legs and writhed their bodies as their giant claws flailed in the air. All of a sudden, they groped towards the protruding stone pillars and rose along with it, allowing them to get out of the reach of the other extruding stone pillars, keeping them from harm's way.

The stone pillars crisscrossed one another like deer horns.

One of the Qi Practitioner asked with killing intent, "Why do you even talk nonsense to him? Just kill him already!"

Senior Martial Brother Lu raised his hand and stopped them. He gave a warm bright smile and asked, "This brother, I'm going to protect Zhu Xian'er, do you have any objections?"

Zhu Xian'er heaved a breath of relief, she dispersed the monster god Ming King's body, along with her spider monster form, changing back to the figure of a charming and alluring young lady. She smiled flirtatiously, "Thank you Senior Martial Brother Lu. This dragon is so impervious to reasons, he had assaulted me the first moment we met. If it weren't for senior martial brother and his timely aid, I'm afraid I'll no longer be living!"

Her beautiful eyes flashed, thinking to herself, This dragon knows a lot of my secrets and also those of the insect race. He must be eradicated! With the three of them and in addition to I myself, killing him will be a very easy task!

"With me here, no one can ever hurt you!"

Senior Martial Brother Lu placed his hands on his back, he glanced at Zhong Yue and said with all pride and conceit, "Dragon, this is not the East Ocean, it is the East Barren and certainly not a place for you to rampage as you like. If I'm protecting her, who dares hurt her?"

Zhu Xian'er lifted her head up and responded, "Senior Martial Brother Lu is so striking! A man like Senior Martial Brother Lu is just what I'll fall in love most, my little heart is thumping as if a little deer is banging on me…."

"Little deer banging you?"

Senior Martial Brother Lu guffawed, "Junior Martial Sister Zhu, I've longed since wanted to have some deer banging happening between you and myself. Wait till I've sent him away, then you and I can both have some quality time together. Dragon, what are you still waiting for, why haven't you left yet?"

Zhong Yue calmly shook his head in response, "I'm going to kill her, and there is nothing you can do to stop me."

Senior Martial Brother Lu laughed out loud. He sneered disdainfully out of the corner of his eye at Zhong Yue, "Is it that you would not shed a tear until you see the coffin with death staring you in the face? Just an untamed wild animal of the dragon race. You don't even know where you came from and yet you dare swagger in front of me? Come on, you can go all out and try for yourself!"

He waved his hand in the air and wrapped his arm around Zhu Xian'er's hourglass waist and said smilingly, "Dragon, I would very much like to see how you would, right in front of me, kill Junior Martial Sister Zhu!"

Just as his voice faded away, Zhong Yue took a step forward and his figure seemed to disappear as he shot forwards with an obscene speed. The two monster Qi Practitioners released a fierce cry, and totem patterns emerged on the surfaces of their skin – the totem patterns of the [Monster God Ming King Art]! One after another, arms extruded from beneath their armpits, and with each of them on one side working in tandem, they struck at Zhong Yue from his flanks!

Senior Martial Brother Lu caressed Zhu Xian'er's baby-like countenance, he smiled and said, "Junior martial sister, don't worry, my Fengsha Island is right on the East Ocean, even the dragon race would have to give my father some face…."

Krong!

Three bodies collided with one another, the two monsters let out guttural and muffled groans of pain as their punches met with Zhong Yue's fist. Instantly, the sounds of bone cracking could be heard and the monsters' grotesquely deformed, their skin was torn apart and their ligaments were ripped from their attachment point to the bone.The splinters of their ravaged bones could be faintly seen protruding out from their flesh – white and macabrely terrifying!

Peng Peng——

Zhong Yue thread past the middle of the two Qi Practitioners while he punched a hole in each of their chests to send them flying. Their chests sunk into a huge crater as and the residual power completely caused their bodies to cave with the indelible mark of the devastating punch. The broken rib bones could be seen piercing through and extruding out from their skin!

In the blink of an eye, Zhong Yue stopped abruptly as he was already facing squarely with Senior Martial Brother Lu. In an indifferent and imperious tone he commanded, "Hand her over."

Senior Martial Brother Lu was shocked and furious at the same time, he quickly faltered backward while he noticed the tragic fate that befell the other two monster Qi Practitioners as their lifeless figures were unmoving on the ground — their internal organs were unequivocally crushed and granulated to fine mush.

They each had the same starting point, learning the same prologue of [Monster God Ming King Art] at the same time and under the same circumstances. Yet, the prowess displayed in Zhong Yue's rendition of the art was worlds apart from his opponents'. The two Fengsha Island monster Qi Practitioners were not even able to survive their first bout against Zhong Yue!

One had to know that the two dead monster Qi Practitioners were not minor figures of mediocrity. In fact, they were among the creme of the crop, preeminent figures among their peers and disciples of the Fengsha Island Lord. The fact that they were able to accompany Senior Marital Brother Lu in his quest to attain the closed-door discipleship under the saint city lord was a testament to their talent and exceptional perception.

Among the Rebirth Qi Practitioners of Fengsha Island, they were also considered as the pinnacle figures among experts. Or otherwise, they would not have been able to elucidate the abstrusity to cultivate the prologue of the [Monster God Ming King Art].
