433 An Expert! (2/2)

The donkey shuddered. It felt something was amiss and was about to struggle when Wang Baole quickly gave it the stink eye.

”You may be innocent, you might have been swallowed by the giant python and is a victim as well, but everyone is feeling terrible now. You still dare to continue braying?” Wang Baole roared. He punched and kicked the donkey. He wasn't putting up a performance but was giving the donkey a genuine beating.

The donkey felt wronged. Then, it saw the look in Wang Baole's eyes. It seemed to have understood something and started to cry out with all it had. It even started weeping and begging for its life.

”There's no use in begging. Even though you contributed the most to saving us all, even though we'd all be goners without you, I still have to beat you!”

”And, even though you successfully wrestled control of the puppet, saved the new city from imminent danger, and saved all our lives, I still have to teach you a lesson!” Wang Baole continued hitting the donkey while observing the rest. The donkey seemed to have understood what was going on and cried more loudly. It looked pitiful.

The scene shocked everyone around them. Gradually, strange expressions overtook their faces. They all realized what Wang Baole was trying to do. He was trying to tell them indirectly that this had nothing to do with the donkey. In fact, the donkey had done all of them a great favor and saved their lives.

Besides, he was already teaching it a lesson. They shouldn't target their anger and wrath on the donkey unreasonably… the messages he was trying to put across were no longer subtle hints but explicit declarations. Those with comrades who had perished in the battle fell silent, sighing inwardly.

Wang Baole saw the expressions on their faces and finally set his heart at ease. He had to go through with the entire act, though. He kicked the donkey again and gave it another look. Then, he raised his right hand. Instantly, his Dharmic Armament sword appeared in his hand. He grabbed the donkey's head, his sword in the other hand, and shouted.

”My Fellow Daoists, this donkey might have saved our lives, we might owe it a great debt, it might be a victim as well, but the giant python has devoured too many cultivators. I have to kill this innocent donkey and avenge their deaths!”

As soon as Wang Baole said that, Lin Tianhao immediately stepped forward with a serious look on his face. He said loudly, ”City Lord, you can't do that, the donkey is innocent. We shouldn't be unleashing our anger on it!”

The people from the four Dao Colleges all had strange expressions on their faces as they stepped forward hurriedly as well. They tried to stop Wang Baole. Kong Dao sighed, also saying a few words himself. Even though everyone knew that this was merely a performance, they also understood what Wang Baole was trying to do.

Jin Duoming smiled wryly as well. He knew that Wang Baole was doing this mainly because of him, but Jin Duoming wasn't someone who didn't see reason. He said solemnly, ”Baole, you can't blame this on the donkey. It's done a great service!”Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please clickfor visiting.

As soon as Jin Duoming said that, the Core Formation realm cultivator next to him took a deep breath as well. He sighed as he stared at the donkey.

”This donkey is extraordinary. After fusing with the puppet, it managed to break free of the puppet's control, devour the other, and gain control instead. It trampled over the plans of the mastermind. Everything the mastermind has done has been for nothing. It has only benefited the donkey!”

”It seems like it's only at the Foundation Establishment realm, but who knows, maybe it might be able to transform one day into a giant python… at the perfected Core Formation realm!” As he spoke, the Core Formation realm cultivator turned and looked at Wang Baole. He didn't hide the envy in his eyes. He wasn't the only one; everyone else was the same. Even if they were on Earth, even if it were the president Duan Muque, he too would be filled with envy at this moment.

After all, this was a War Beast that could transform into a perfected Core Formation realm beast!

Everyone was already imagining the price Wang Baole's donkey was going to fetch after news of this incident broke. It was already quite valuable, but after today, its value would likely skyrocket…

”This is an expert!” Lin Tianhao sucked in a deep breath and gasped.

”It's just too incredible!” Jin Duoming came to the same realization instantly. As he muttered under his breath, his eyes shone. He began considering whether he should speak to Wang Baole again and find out whether he had any chance of buying such an incredible expert from Wang Baole.
