Bu Xingyi’s eyes were full of joy. He had thought that he was about to die and was stunned to suddenly encounter Mo Wen on such a large island.
A strange expression was on Mo Wen’s face. He had not expected to encounter Bu Xingyi, and certainly not in such a situation as the one he was clearly in right now.
“Little Bu, what’s going on with you? You don’t look so good.” The corners of Mo Wen’s mouth curled up playfully.
“You… Mo Wen, there is a Beast King chasing behind me.” There was anger in Bu Xingyi’s eyes. Despite the danger he was in, Mo Wen was ridiculing him. But in his current situation, he did not dare to say anything despite his anger. If Mo Wen did not save him, he would most likely die at the hands of the pursuing Beast King.
Although the message that the Tower Spirit had sent him had stated that no one would die for real on Beast King Island, who knew whether this was true. Moreover, no one would want to experience death. It was a natural instinct to fear it.
“Little Bu, it is merely a Beast King. As the Ming Temple’s Sect Grand Elder, could it be that you actually are afraid?” Mo Wen said casually.
He did not say that he would save Bu Xingyi, nor did he say that he wouldn’t. He also did not leave immediately. He seemed unconcerned by the Beast King that continued to move towards them.
“You insolent brat! if I was in my prime, I would not fear a mere Beast King. Youths nowadays do not know how to show respect for the elderly and only cherish the young. You don’t have a sense of propriety at all.”
Bu Xingyi’s expression turned sullen. Mo Wen was uncontrollable and had no idea how to behave. Time and time again, he had called him “Little Bu”. If this got out, Bu Xingyi would never be able to show his face in public again.
However, the fact Mo Wen did not immediately take off made Bu Xingyi breathe a sigh of relief. Since Mo Wen had stayed when the Beast King caught up with them it would not only focus on Bu Xingyi.
The Beast Kings on this island seemed to have a natural hatred for human ancient martial art practitioners. Once they encountered one, it would certainly end the death of one of them.
“Towards a disrespectful old thing, what sense of propriety is there to speak of? As a senior in the ancient martial arts world, you have tried to kill me without reason time and time again. You even tried to ambush me. You shameless old fool, why should I reason with you? Reason is discussed between humans. What reason does an old mongrel understand?” Mo Wen said plainly. He had no intention of being discreet.
“You…” Bu Xingyi was so angry that he was almost at the point at which his lungs would explode. In any other circumstances, no one would dare to insult him in such a manner, let alone a young brat. He was tempted to pounce and fight Mo Wen to the death there and then. However, his thoughts turned to the Beast King behind them and he forced himself to resist the urge to do so.
He stayed close to Mo Wen. When the Beast King arrived, it would not let Mo Wen go. If the Beast King could eat the brat, that would be the best outcome for Bu Xingyi.
Roar! Roar!
In the thicket behind them, the trees shook, sending birds and beasts fleeing in fright. Tree after tree seemed to be struck by a powerful force, slanting as they fell to the ground. A huge silhouette emerged from the lush thicket.
The creature was five stories high, like a small hill that was moving at a high speed. With every step it took, the ground shook with a huge rumble as though an earthquake was occurring.
It was a huge single horned rhinoceros. The body of the rhinoceros flashed with blue light. The sky blue light enveloped the forest as though seawater had surged forth.
“Roar! You aren’t running anymore? Have you thought things through and decided to willingly be eaten by me? Haha… Huh? There is actually another person.”
The huge rhinoceros’ ink green eyes stared at Bu Xingyi as it laughed out loud. Its voice shook the surrounding trees, making them tremble. Then, as though it had discovered something, it turned its head slightly to look at Mo Wen, clearly noticing him at the same time.
“You stupid beast. I have encountered my fellow human companion. The two of us have decided to join forces and slaughter you,” Bu Xingyi said sinisterly as he coldly snorted. He unapologetically dragged Mo Wen into it.
“Kill me? You two little things? Laughable!”
The Rhinoceros Beast King did not get angry and instead laughed loudly. A truly strong practitioner would not bother to provoke those weaker than them. It just like a human would not waste their time provoking an ant.
“This is good, very good! Eating both of you may even make me immediately become a demon.” The Rhinoceros Beast King kept nodding its head. Its eyes flashed brightly as though it had encountered an absolute delicacy.
Mo Wen was speechless. It had mentioned eating them to become a demon. Couldn’t the Tower Spirit come up with a new way to instigate all the Beast Kings on this Island to attack the human ancient martial art practitioners?
The Rhinoceros Beast King before them now was unusually powerful. It was most likely on a par with the Fire Domain’s Giant Crocodile Beast King.
If the Rhinoceros Beast King specialized in speed, it would have been impossible for Bu Xingyi to escape.
“I have no issue with you eating him. However, if you want to eat me, I disagree with that,” Mo Wen said. If the Beast King wanted to eat Bu Xingyi, so be it. He would be delighted to watch.
After all, it did not matter whether Bu Xingyi survived. Without him, they could still make it through the task. Before this, he had saved Bu Xingyi because of the task. Now that they had reached the third stage, Bu Xingyi had already lost his value. He couldn’t wait for Bu Xingyi to be eaten up by a Beast King. Why would Mo Wen save him?
Even if Mo Wen saved him now, Bu Xingyi would probably die at the hands of other Beast Kings. It would be impossible for him to survive a day on Beast King Island. If Bu Xingyi got killed earlier and then resurrected, what would be so bad about that?
Bu Xingyi’s expression turned sullen. As expected, this Mo Wen was not preparing to save him. His eyes darted around as he contemplated how he would find a way to cause Mo Wen to die at the hands of the Rhinoceros Beast King and so get his revenge on the youth.
“No! Neither of you will escape. I will eat you both, whether you agree or disagree.” The Rhinoceros Beast King began to laugh hideously. These two foolish human ancient martial art practitioners were actually fighting with each other at such a time. As a Beast King, its intelligence was not lower than that of a human’s, so it could tell that the atmosphere between the two of them was somewhat off.
“Aren’t you afraid that all your teeth will break?” Mo Wen smiled.
A light flashed in Mo Wen’s hands. The Cries of Hades Bell and the Blood-Clotting Claw appeared in his hands at the same time. The aura emanated by profound level weapons would make even a Beast King subconsciously cautious. Of course, it also depended on who was wielding the profound level weapon. If it was in the hands of a Martial Arts Grandmaster, the Beast King would certainly be wary. However, if it was in the hands of a pinnacle of the Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioner, the Beast King most likely would not even be bothered by it.
When the Cries of Hades Bell and the Blood-Clotting Claw just appeared, the Rhinoceros Beast King had a look of hesitation. An instant later, it clearly relaxed, not bothered by them at all.
Bu Xingyi looked at the profound level weapons in Mo Wen’s hands. A jealous look flashed in its eyes. The creature’s look of greed could not be concealed. If he could have a profound level weapon, he would be so much stronger.
“You are facing an absolute strong practitioner. Anything you rely on is but a foolish joke. Just sit there quietly and let me eat you.”
The Rhinoceros Beast King roared towards the sky. The blue light on its body shone brilliantly. A shiny blue trident appeared in mid-air. The trident was a hundred feet long. It floated horizontally in the sky, emanating an aura that was terrifying beyond compare.
Bu Xingyi felt a shiver down his spine. Without even thinking, he turned and ran. He could not withstand the terrifying trident for even a second.
The trident was the legendary weapon of the God of the Sea and possessed supreme power. Of course, the trident conjured up by the Rhinoceros Beast King could not be compared with the trident of the God of the Sea. But this type of weapon was equipped with extraordinary might.
The trident in the sky trembled, and then furiously swooped down. A blue light swept out, completely enveloping Mo Wen and Bu Xingyi.
“He is young. His meat is tasty!” Bu Xingyi called out unashamedly. He turned and ran. With Mo Wen holding off the Rhinoceros Beast King for a while, maybe he could escape from danger.
“Although you are old, you are easier to eat. Since the Rhinoceros Beast King wants to eat you, I will offer you up to him.” Mo Wen chuckled. The Cries of Hades Bell in his hand released a crisp chime. The next moment, Bu Xingyi, who had not run very far, felt dizzy. His brain immediately short-circuited and he saw pitch black before him.
Mo Wen casually walked up to Bu Xingyi, lifting him up with one hand. He released a golden light, instantly destroying all the tendons and tissues in Bu Xingyi’s body. Then, with a casual throw, he directly threw Bu Xingyi towards the Rhinoceros Beast King.
The severe pain caused Bu Xingyi to awaken from his trance. Upon discovering his predicament, he let out a mournful scream.
“Mo Wen… you… you… you and I are irreconcilable…”
Bu Xingyi had never imagined that Mo Wen would attack him in such a way and that he would be completely unable to resist.
“You are an interesting human. You actually betrayed your companion. As expected, you are indeed shameless.” The Rhinoceros Beast King was stunned. It had not expected that such a dramatic scene would play out before it. The human ancient martial art practitioner had actually personally offered up his companion.
“That is good, very good!” The Rhinoceros Beast King laughed out loud hideously. It suddenly opened its big bloody mouth and sucked in deeply. A beam of blue light swept out from its mouth, furiously catching Bu Xingyi’s body and swiftly dragging him into its big bloody mouth.
“Ah! Mo Wen, I’ll remember this. I will definitely not let you off… Definitely…”
Bu Xingyi’s eyes were full of terror. His body flew uncontrollably towards the big bloody mouth of the Rhinoceros Beast King. He seemed to have smelled the stench coming from it. For a moment, a terror he had never felt before surged into his mind. He could not control it at all.
Mo Wen crossed his arms. His expression was cold as he looked at Bu Xingyi. His face showed no signs of emotion. If it wasn’t for the fact that he knew that, in this space, he would be punished for killing a human ancient martial art practitioner, he would have personally killed Bu Xingyi instead of using the Rhinoceros Beast King to kill him.
Gobble! Gobble!
The Rhinoceros Beast King closed its eyes as it enjoyably munched away. Its mouth would occasionally emit gobbling sounds.
Mo Wen could faintly hear the screams of Bu Xingyi as he was brutally eaten alive. Maybe Bu Xingyi could be resurrected because of the mission, but the pain of being eaten alive by a Beast King was certainly real. This experience would certainly traumatize Bu Xingyi.
