Chapter 1542: Taotie Catching Up
Translator: Noodletown Translated Editor: Noodletown Translated
The Taotie was too enormous, like a giant ship. It was multiples times the size of an airplane, and it stood like a tall peak, covering everyone with its shadow.
“Despicable human, you escaped from my hand last time. I will definitely kill you this time,” the Taotie said with murderous intent.
As one of the ten ferocious beasts of the ancient era, the Taotie had gained human intelligence. It could speak human words and easily express its intentions.
Qingfeng was initially panicky and fearful. But he quickly calmed down since he still had an ace card – the Demonic Peacock Empress.
Qingfeng knew that he could still get help from the Demonic Peacock Empress for one last time, and he trusted that could suppress the Taotie with her help.
“Taotie, you are one of the ten ferocious beasts from the ancient era. I can give you a chance. Join me now or I will seal you back to Hell,” Qingfeng said arrogantly.
The Taotie broke into a laugh when it heard Qingfeng’s arrogant words. As one of the ten ferocious beasts of the ancient era, it rarely smiled.
But now, the Taotie broke into a piercing laugh.
“Hahaha, you despicable human. You are the most arrogant human I have ever seen. Back then, even the Golden Saint dared not say that he could defeat me. How is it possible for an ordinary self-cultivator like you to seal me?” the Taotie said mockingly as it looked at Qingfeng like he was a joke.
In the ancient era, the Taotie was an infamous being. Even some Saints and Immortals were killed by it.
In the Taotie’s eyes, Qingfeng was like an ant. It could kill Qingfeng any moment.
“Black Puppy, Sky-Devouring Snake, you are both godly beasts of the ancient era. How could you become a human’s lackeys? What a disgrace to godly beasts,” the Taotie said as it looked at Sky-Devouring Snake and Black Puppy with disdain.
The Taotie, Black Puppy and Sky-Devouring Snake knew of each other and had battled in the past, always ending up in draws.
Of course, Black Puppy and Sky-Devouring Snake had lost the majority of their powers now.
But Taotie had only lost ten percent of its power. Thus, the Taotie could easily defeat Black Puppy and Sky-Devouring Snake now.
“Taotie, don’t be arrogant. Qingfeng is very powerful. If you dare to speak such words, Qingfeng might seal you back to the depths of Hell and you will never see light again,” Black Puppy said loudly as it waved its tail.
“Little Puppy, this human is a fool. Clearly, it is impossible for him to defeat me. You have become foolish after being by his side. I am one of the ten ferocious beasts of the ancient era. Even immortals cannot defeat me,” the Taotie said mockingly.
Taotie continued, “Black Puppy, Sky-Devouring Snake, how dare you two follow a human. After I kill him, I will swallow you two too.”
When they heard its words, Black Puppy and Sky-Devouring Snake broke into laughter, they were not afraid at all.
In the past, Qingfeng would naturally not be the Taotie’s opponent, but Qingfeng had Demonic Peacock Empress now.
But it was the first Demon Empress of Earth, and a famous figure in the universe.
Even though the Taotie was very powerful, it was still weaker than the Demonic Peacock Empress.
Taotie opened its enormous mouth and sucked its mouth towards Qingfeng.
The large vacuum force formed a black hole that sucked the surrounding air and space. Qingfeng’s body seemed like it was about to be sucked by Taotie.
Qingfeng smiled faintly without a care. It quickly summoned Demonic Peacock Empress who was within his interspatial ring.
“Qingfeng, this is the last time I can fight. After that, I will fall into deep hibernation. Are you sure you want to use this last opportunity?” the Demonic Peacock Empress said towards Qingfeng.
Qingfeng smiled faintly and said, “Of course, no one other than you can defeat Taotie.”
The Demonic Peacock Empress nodded and flew out of Qingfeng’s interspatial ring.
Taotie furrowed its brows. It thought that Qingfeng would use some special technique, but he just summoned a beautiful woman from his interspatial ring.
Even though the Taotie was one of the ten ferocious beasts of Ancient Earth, it still had a sense of beauty. The woman ahead was indeed too beautiful.
She was in her twenties, had a charming and beautiful face. Her eyes shone like stars and her lashes were like the beautiful feathers of a peacock. Her black hair lied behind her shoulders and moved lightly. She had an incredible presence.
Why does this beautiful woman give me familiar feeling? the Taotie thought as it looked at the Demonic Peacock Empress.
The Taotie was sealed inside Hell for thousands of years. Its memory was already fuzzy, so it could not recognize the Demonic Peacock Empress immediately. But it still remembered the familiar presence.
Demonic Peacock Empress looked at Taotie and said lightly, “Little Black, have you forgotten about me after these past thousand years?”
Chuckle?
Qingfeng broke into a chuckle when he heard the nickname.
The fellow before them was one of the ten ferocious beasts of the ancient era. It was an undefeatable being in the entire Eastern self-cultivator world.
But Demonic Peacock Empress called the Taotie “Little Black”, and it was quite an appropriate nickname.
Taotie’s entire body was darker than coal. It was pitch black.
“Human, you are looking for your death. How dare you call me Little Black. I will devour you with a single gulp,” Taotie said furiously.
Taotie felt that its reputation was being mocked by the woman in front of him. She should call it a godly beast, so how could the name “Little Black” come out? The Taotie was furious, it wanted to swallow the woman right now.
