The Great Ruler - Chapter26

"These guys from the West Branch are really annoying."

In the forest that was filled with greenery, Tang Qian 'Er's face was filled with anger. These guys had come to find trouble with Mu Chen time and time again. Even a person made of mud would have some anger in his heart.

"Only a mediocre person would not be envied by others."

Mu Chen only smiled gently. He glanced behind him and said: "However, it seems that Liu Mubai does have quite a bit of jealousy towards me. I didn't seem to have much interaction with him in the past."

"Liu Mubai?" Tang Qian 'Er frowned and said: "Is he the one who wants to deal with you?"

"Otherwise, do you think that Chen Tong would come and help Liu Yang, a newcomer who just entered the Heaven Class?

I'm afraid that Liu Mubai added fuel to the fire behind this. This guy is quite similar to those abnormal people from the Spiritual Road, but he is lacking a bit of experience. "Mu Chen said lightly.

"That guy is also annoying."

Tang Qian 'Er's face was slightly cold. She immediately became worried: "This Liu Mubai is not easy to deal with. Compared to him, Liu Yang is not on the same level. Ever since he entered the Northern Spiritual Academy, Liu Mubai has always held the title of the strongest in the Northern Spiritual Academy. All these years, he has never lost."

"That's right. Mu Chen, you have to be more careful of Liu Mubai. This guy has always made me unable to see through him. I have fought with him before, but I lost miserably. Even then, Liu Mubai did not use his true strength." Mo Ling said solemnly from the side.

"Senior Mo Ling, you are already at the Spiritual Movement Stage Late Phase. If Liu Mubai can easily defeat you …" Tan Qingshan was shocked and could not help but say.

Mo Ling slowly nodded and said: "It is very likely that Liu Mubai has already entered the Spiritual Rotation Stage. This guy is indeed very powerful."

Tang Qian 'Er's face was also a bit serious. If that was the case, then it was indeed a bit troublesome. The gap between the Spiritual Rotation Stage and the Spiritual Movement Stage was too big.

Thinking up to this point, she looked towards Mu Chen. However, the young man's face was still rather calm. The corner of his mouth carried a gentle smile. That kind of silence and calmness caused the worry in the hearts of Tang Qian 'Er, Mo Ling and Qing Shan to suddenly lessen by a lot.

The young man in front of him seemed to have a kind of calm magic that made people believe that he could do many things that were impossible in the eyes of ordinary people.

"Although the Spiritual Rotation Stage is powerful, it is not an existence that cannot be touched. Although it will be a bit troublesome, if Liu Mubai really wants to make a move, he will have to pay a price."

Mu Chen said softly. He was not boasting in his words. However, whether it was in the Spiritual Road or in the Great Thousand World, he would have to pay a price no matter what the result was.

"Forget it. Let's not talk about this for now. The Northern Spiritual Field training has already begun. Let's officially begin. The two of you can be considered as our competitors now." Mu Chen looked at Mo Ling and the other two and said with a smile.

"Then, we'll take the initiative to gain the upper hand!"

Mo Ling and Qing Shan looked at each other and suddenly dashed forward. They were currently at the outermost area of the Northern Spiritual Field. There were very few Spiritual Beasts here. Only by going deeper would they be able to encounter them.

Mu Chen watched the two of them leave and could not help but smile. Then, he gently rubbed his palms together. Within his black eyes, a little bit of excitement slowly surged out.

It had been a long time since he was a hunter. If he did not make a move now, he was afraid that he would become rusty.

"Let's go as well."

Mu Chen waved his hand at Tang Qian 'Er and suddenly increased his pace. However, he did not follow Mo Ling and the other's path. Instead, he slightly deviated from the path. The experience in the Spiritual Road allowed him to understand how to search for traces of Spiritual Beasts.

The two of them increased their speed. After a dozen minutes, they gradually entered the outermost area of the Northern Spiritual Field. From time to time, the roars of various Spiritual Beasts could be heard from afar.

Tang Qian 'Er followed closely behind Mu Chen. At this moment, the girl's pretty face was slightly nervous. She clearly understood that in such a dangerous place, if they were surrounded by Spiritual Beasts, they would really lose their lives.

Just as she was nervously observing her surroundings, Mu Chen's body suddenly stopped. She was caught off guard and bumped into him. The girl's soft and delicate body was pressed against Mu Chen's back. That soft feeling caused Mu Chen to involuntarily blink. Behind him, Tang Qian 'Er's face was completely red. She quickly retreated, but her hand was grabbed by Mu Chen.

"Shh."

Before Tang Qian 'Er could struggle, Mu Chen had already gently waved his hand. His gaze penetrated through the forest and looked straight ahead. Tang Qian' Er also followed his gaze and saw two blood-red creatures with a black horn on their foreheads. They looked like tigers and pigs and were leisurely strolling in the open space. Ear-piercing snorts continuously sounded out.

"It's a Low Rank Spiritual Beast, Blood Boar Tiger."

Mu Chen softly said. These two Blood Boar Tigers seemed to be at the Spiritual Movement Stage Middle Phase. However, this kind of Spiritual Beast had a rough skin and thick flesh. It was enough to withstand a full force attack from a Spiritual Movement Stage Late Phase person. Moreover, when it went berserk, it was exceptionally fierce.

"We'll take one each. Is there a problem?"

Mu Chen looked at Tang Qian 'Er. The girl's face was slightly pale, but she still stubbornly nodded her head. This was probably the first time that she fought with such a ferocious-looking Spiritual Beast.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here." Mu Chen smiled and comforted her.

"En."

Tang Qian 'Er gently bit her teeth. She clenched her hand and a short sword slid into her palm. She did not want to be a burden to Mu Chen. For the sake of their results, she had to work hard.

"Let's go."

Mu Chen let out a soft cry as he took the lead and rushed out.

Roar!

When Mu Chen appeared, the two Blood Boar Tigers stared at him with their red eyes. With a roar, a bloody light was emitted from their bodies.

Rumble.

One of them moved with earth-shattering footsteps. It was like a ray of red light as it rushed towards Mu Chen with lightning speed. Just as the other one was about to follow, a sharp rock wrapped in Spiritual Energy ruthlessly hit its nose. This caused it to stop in its tracks. Its blood red eyes looked at the delicate girl that appeared. With a roar, it rushed over.

Mu Chen stared at the Blood Boar Tiger that was charging towards him. Not only was there no panic in his eyes, there was instead a hint of excitement. With a stomp of his feet, he actually rushed forward.

A man and a beast rushed past, causing the wind to blow up the withered leaves on the ground. However, just as the two were about to collide, Mu Chen took a step forward. He clenched his right hand and a sharp dagger slid into his palm. A dark black Spiritual Energy quickly wrapped around the dagger.

Mu Chen's right hand drew a crafty arc. Just as the Blood Boar Tiger rushed past him, a black light suddenly appeared. A cold light slashed across the Blood Boar Tiger's eyes and blood sputtered out.

Bang!

The Bloodboar Tiger fiercely slammed into a giant tree behind it. The entire tree collapsed with a loud bang, causing the earth to tremble for a moment. The Bloodboar Tiger let out a crazy shriek as its pair of blood-red eyes were completely blinded by Mu Chen's stab.

"Roar!"

The intense pain caused the Bloodhog Tiger to be on the verge of insanity. Relying on the smell in the air, it once again turned around and charged towards Mu Chen in a frenzy. The fur on its entire body stood up like steel spikes, appearing just like a steel fortress.

However, facing the crazy Blood Boar Tiger, Mu Chen appeared to be rather calm. He stepped forward and allowed the Blood Boar Tiger to madly rush past him. Every time the Blood Boar Tiger rushed past him, the sharp dagger would bring with it hot red blood.

As the blood splattered, the Blood Boar Tiger's charge became slower and slower. It was obvious that it was beginning to exhaust its strength. Mu Chen took advantage of the time when it staggered and fiercely closed in. A cold light flashed through his eyes. Under the cover of Spiritual Energy, the dagger was so sharp that it made people feel cold. Then, like lightning, he stabbed into the Blood Boar Tiger's throat.

Hot blood flowed out along the dagger and the Blood Boar Tiger let out a mournful howl. In the end, its body began to gradually stop moving.

Mu Chen calmly pulled out the dagger and pushed the huge Blood Boar Tiger away. Even adventurers, who often hunted Spirit Beasts for a living, would be shocked when they saw this. This kind of method was clearly not something a young man of his age could possess.

After dealing with the Blood Boar Tiger, Mu Chen looked at Tang Qian'er. At this moment, the girl was in a sorry state. Although she had left bloody marks on the Blood Boar Tiger's body, for the Blood Boar Tiger with its rough skin and thick flesh, it did not cause any serious damage.

Roar!

The Blood Boar Tiger that was entangled with Tang Qian 'Er seemed to have heard its companion's mournful cry before its death. Its blood-red eyes suddenly turned completely red. Its originally huge body suddenly swelled up by a size.

"Has it gone crazy?" Seeing this, Mu Chen raised his eyebrows.

"Ah."

Tang Qian 'Er let out a cry of surprise. When the short sword hacked at the Blood Boar Tiger's body, it was actually knocked out of her hand. Immediately, she hurriedly retreated a few steps. Then, she felt a shadow shrouding her. A fishy smell assaulted her face. The Blood Boar Tiger leaped high into the air and ruthlessly pressed down like a small mountain.

Looking at the shadow that pressed down on her, Tang Qian'er's face turned pale. She felt as if her body was unable to move.

Whoosh.

A figure swept over from the side and grabbed onto her slender waist. On the dagger in his hand, dark black Spiritual Energy surged. It was like a dark cold light as it streaked across the Blood Boar Tiger's abdomen like lightning.

Chi.

Blood immediately rolled down along with the smelly intestines and internal organs.

Mu Chen hugged Tang Qian'er and rolled on the ground to avoid the Blood Boar Tiger. After the Blood Boar Tiger fell to the ground, it struggled for a while before it could no longer move. It was obvious that it had lost its life.

Phew.

When Mu Chen saw that the two Blood Boar Tigers were dealt with, he let out a sigh of relief. Then, he felt the girl in his embrace gently struggle. Only then did he release her with a smile and ask, "Are you okay?"

Tang Qian'er blushed and shook her head. She looked at the two dead Blood Boar Tigers and a hint of surprise appeared in her eyes. She understood that it was Mu Chen's credit that they were able to deal with the two Blood Boar Tigers so quickly.

"Why are you so powerful? I fought with the Blood Boar Tiger for so long, but I still couldn't kill it." Tang Qian'er couldn't help but ask.

"Just aim at its vital points. You will get used to it after a few more hunts."

Mu Chen smiled. Then, he stood up and walked towards the two Bloody Boar Tigers. His dagger cut across their heads and a red light emitted out. Two fist-sized clumps of light slowly rose up. Within the clumps of light, a miniature Bloody Boar Tiger could be faintly seen. A violent Spiritual Energy fluctuation was faintly emitted from it.

This was the Spiritual Beast's Soul Essence.

Mu Chen put away the two Spiritual Beast's Soul Essences and threw them to Tang Qian'er. The latter curiously caught them and looked at them back and forth. It was as if she was very satisfied with the first spoils of war in her life.

Seeing this, Mu Chen couldn't help but smile. He wiped away the bloodstains on the dagger and looked deeper into the cave. He licked his lips. The blood from before seemed to have aroused the desire that he had suppressed for a long time.

"Let's go, this is just the beginning."

Mu Chen tilted his head and said to Tang Qian'er. Then, he took another step forward. This kind of Spiritual Beast was still lacking some challenge.

(The collection has slowed down again.

If you haven't collected it yet, please collect it. This way, it will be more convenient.)
