Heaven Slaying Blade

Chapter 778: Karma


"Otherwise, what do you want?" Chu Mo's face wore a hint of mockery as he looked at Zhu Hong, inwardly admiring this man's shamelessness for being able to talk about robbery with such composure—truly a talent.

"Otherwise, not only will you not have a whole corpse after you die, but you will also endure endless torment until death!" Zhu Hong said, glancing at Fang Lan next to Chu Mo: "As for this little girl... heh heh heh, I'll reluctantly take her in, to serve as a foot-washing maid or a bed-warmer, which isn't too bad."

"Shameless!" Fang Lan coldly stared at Zhu Hong, her eyes full of hatred. How could there be so many shameless people in this world? She also hated her own weakness, if one day she became stronger, such people... she would kill them one by one!

"Heh heh, quite a fiery spirit, but what I like most is to drink strong liquor, ride fierce horses, and conquer fierce girls, hahaha!" Zhu Hong laughed proudly, completely disregarding the murderous intent in the eyes of the two before him.

A cornered rabbit would also show lethal intent, but after all, it's still just a rabbit—what use is it?

Zhu Hong spoke, and his body burst forth with the aura of the Primordial Infant realm, directly overwhelming Chu Mo and Fang Lan.

Fang Lan's face immediately changed, and her breathing became rapid. The aura of the Primordial Infant realm was something she couldn't contend with.

At this moment, Chu Mo didn't say much. He simply stepped forward, bearing the full brunt of the aura Zhu Hong released, and looked at Zhu Hong lightly, "Are you the Zhu Hong who killed many from the Three Great Families at the Qingxu Sect ruins in Jinxiu City?"

Zhu Hong was slightly startled, not by what the man before him said, but that someone could actually withstand his aura without changing their expression!

Just a Golden Core cultivator, how could it be possible?

Zhu Hong was a very cautious person. As an independent cultivator of ill repute who had managed to live luxuriously and instill fear in countless people, he was certainly not like Ouyang Pingfeng, inexperienced in battles. Zhu Hong's eyes rolled around as he sized up Chu Mo, then asked coldly, "Who are you? How do you know about this?"

"I'm just a good Samaritan who couldn't stand by idly." Chu Mo said indifferently.

"Hahahaha, seeking death!" Zhu Hong, while laughing, suddenly attacked Chu Mo; a beam of light, with a searing heat, shot straight towards Chu Mo!

Zhu Hong cultivated fire attribute techniques, otherwise, he wouldn't have so desperately desired the drop of True Phoenix Blood at the Qingxu Sect ruins. That drop of True Phoenix Blood could not only change his physique but also enhance his attacking power, transforming him drastically.

This beam of light reached Chu Mo almost instantly, the temperature within the light so extreme that even peak Primordial Infant cultivators wouldn't dare to easily confront it!

Chu Mo channeled the Five Elements Dao Platform, and the fire section of the platform blazed brilliantly, instantly transforming his body into a body of Five Elements Fire.

The light struck directly on Chu Mo's chest!

An ancestral realm body plus the quintessence of the Five Elements Fire, Zhu Hong's strike had no effect on Chu Mo at all!

If a magical attack is countered, it won't cause even a slight injury.

Zhu Hong clearly hadn't expected this result and was taken aback, wanting to retreat.

But it was too late!

For Chu Mo's Heaven Slaying blade was already upon him!

This blade was just too fast!

Like a flash of light!

Actually, the moment Zhu Hong made his move, Chu Mo had also made his move!

Zhu Hong's strike, aimed with certainty, missed its mark, but Chu Mo's strike did not miss.

At the critical moment, Zhu Hong let out a loud roar and barely dodged the blade that was aimed at his head by just a fraction...

Crack!

Chu Mo's blade struck directly onto Zhu Hong's shoulder.

Zhu Hong's entire arm fell off at the sound!

He did not possess a body of the ancestral realm and could not fully withstand Chu Mo's strike.

Blood gushed out from Zhu Hong's shoulder as he let out a terrible scream and turned to flee.

Never mind that the person before him was just a Golden Core cultivator; even if he had been a Foundation Establishment cultivator, right then, Zhu Hong had only one thought: flee!

He had survived unscathed up till today, not by sheer luck. Caution was one aspect, but having a sharp mind and quick reactions... that was also one of his major strengths. With this personality, Zhu Hong had almost always been successful in the past and seldom suffered any significant losses.

But today, he had met his nemesis!

As if fated, in the past, it was always he who waylaid and robbed other cultivators, playing with them like a cat with a mouse. But today, the roles were reversed.

The Heaven Slaying in Chu Mo's hands, as if alive, swept horizontally...

The extremely heavy and supremely sharp blade fiercely sliced into Zhu Hong's waist, directly cleaving his physical body into two.

Zhu Hong let out a scream of extreme agony. He simply couldn't believe that he, a Mid-Primordial Infant cultivator about to advance to a High-Primordial Infant stage, could be so miserably defeated by a Golden Core stage cultivator.

The Primordial Infant in his elixir field was also split in two by the strike of Heaven Slaying, its vast energy absorbed by the blade.

But the half of Zhu Hong's body that remained did not die immediately; his visage rapidly aged, and his eyes were filled with despair and fear. He did not understand why this young man possessed such formidable combat power.

"You... who exactly are you?" Zhu Hong, propping up his half body with his remaining arm, supported by the Primordial Infant realm's strong vitality and his reluctance to die, stared intently at Chu Mo.

"Haven't I said it already, I'm just a good person who stands for justice when witnessing injustice," Chu Mo looked at Zhu Hong indifferently and smiled, "I was thinking of burying him here, just short of a little blood sacrifice, and it turns out... using a Mid-Primordial Infant stage cultivator for a blood sacrifice is quite appropriate."

"You..." Zhu Hong, already struggling to hold on, nearly died on the spot due to Chu Mo's words.

"Zhu Hong, even disregarding past grudges, today, as strangers, you attempted to kill me and snatch my treasures, and you tried to humiliate my disciple. Just for that, you deserve to die," Chu Mo looked at Zhu Hong, "Not to mention, because you couldn't find me, you directed your rage toward the Three Great Families of Jinxiu City, killing so many of their people, nearly causing the complete collapse of the Three Great Families. This vengeance started because of me, and it ends because of me. Having cultivated to the Primordial Infant realm, you should understand that in this world, there are consequences."

"So it turns out... you are... Chu Mo..." Zhu Hong's eyes widened in disbelief as he looked at Chu Mo, then his eyes rolled back, he spat out a mouthful of blood, and died.

Standing to the side, Fang Lan was dumbstruck. She had already been trying hard to elevate her master's formidable image in her mind, but now she suddenly realized her master was far more powerful than she had imagined... many times over!
