Chapter 130: Chapter 13: Getting Used to Killing
Translator: 549690339
“When a cold poison invades, it enters the soul pet as it dies and causes a spiritual feedback on the Soul Pet Master, forcefully adding cold poison to the soul’s feedback. If the poison is not resisted by the soul sense in time, the soul will be frozen, and the body will turn into frozen meat.” Lu Shanli calmly looked at the battlefield where the body had turned into ice debris and spoke slowly.
Two people had entered the battlefield, but only Chu Mu, with the Ice-Feathered Spirit, slowly returned.
Unlike before, everyone’s gaze at Chu Mu had completely changed. No longer filled with doubt and disdain, instead, they now carried a hint of fear!
Feng Xiang frowned. Although she was surprised by Chu Mu’s terrifying killing technique, killing the youth of the Nightmare Demon Palace was simply tantamount to creating more enemies for Xia Guanghan.
“Henghai Young Master Yan! You have a lot of nerve to kill my disciple!!!” The Green Nightmare Demon Palace Master’s face was full of anger, and a killing aura was released from him. His anger seemed to have turned into flames burning around him!
“Green Palace Master, the grievances of the young generation should be resolved by the members of the young generation themselves. You should control your emotions.” Lu Shanli glanced at the Green Nightmare Demon Palace Master who seemed intent on killing Chu Mu and said indifferently.
The Nightmare Demon Young Master is the highest honor of the young generation of the Nightmare Demon Palace. Apart from a few higher-ranked figures in the palace, no one can directly punish them. Even if they committed a serious crime, neither the Green Nightmare Demon Palace Master nor the Blue Nightmare Demon Palace Master can act against Chu Mu unless Chu Mu attacks them first.
“But this guy violated the challenge rules! He harmed the talent of Green Nightmare Demon Palace. Shouldn’t there be punishment?” The Green
Nightmare Demon Palace Master couldn’t possibly let the matter go so easily!
“If you dare to challenge, you have to be prepared to pay the price of life.” Lu Shanli said calmly.
Lu Shanli, as the Nightmare Demon Youth Adjudicator, was the only one qualified to judge the Nightmare Demon Young Master. He had no intention of punishing Chu Mu, so the Green Nightmare Demon Palace Master had no way of dealing with Chu Mu.
Seeing that Lu Shanli helped Chu Mu suppress the matter, Feng Xiang breathed a sigh of relief and immediately said to Chu Mu sternly: “Chu Mu, you may not kill soul pet masters in the youth challenges. Don’t be reckless.”
Chu Mu lifted his eyelids and glanced at Feng Xiang who appeared to be lecturing him. “I’m just used to it,” he replied indifferently.
Feng Xiang did not expect Chu Mu to ignore her warning like this, and her face immediately froze with coldness.
Chu Mu’s gaze swept over the other four challengers, and he spoke with an indifferent tone: “If you’re afraid of losing and being killed by me, just give up the challenge. My fighting style is not a mere harmless exchange between children.”
The four challengers hadn’t yet recovered from witnessing Guo Xian’s death. If not for Lu Shanli’s explanation, they wouldn’t have known how Guo Xian had died. Now, with this eerie executioner speaking such words to them, they couldn’t help but shudder in fear.
“Nightmare Demon Youth of Li Mountain, you just said that if you don’t fight first, then others will come here for nothing. How come you’re now saying such words?” Lu Shanli mercilessly exposed the hypocrisy of Li Mountain Nightmare Youth’s attitude.
Li Mountain Nightmare Youth’s face turned red instantly, wanting to argue but not knowing how to save face for himself.
Everyone’s eyes immediately looked at Li Mountain Nightmare Youth with disdain and began to whisper. After this incident, it would be difficult for him to hold his head up in the Nightmare Demon Palace.
However, on the other hand, Li Mountain Nightmare Youth didn’t think that there was anything wrong with his sudden change of attitude.
A Level 6 Ice-Feathered Spirit, but with a Level 5 skill – Ice Sword – displayed the effect of a Level 7 skill, and even reached a terrifying fine control, killing a Rank 5 Green Nightmare Demon. Even more frightening was the cold poison invasion.
Disregarding close combat abilities, it was simply equivalent to a terrifying Level 6 Commander Level ice attribute soul pet. Li Mountain Nightmare Youth’s own strongest soul pet was just a Rank 5 Stage 4 Commander Level one.
Li Mountain Nightmare Youth didn’t think he was much stronger than Guo Xian, and he didn’t want to risk his life due to his initial recklessness. To save face, he would decisively lose face if he needed to.
“What about the three of you?” Chu Mu looked at the other three challengers and asked.
Chu Mu didn’t know the rules of the challenges, so he didn’t know that he couldn’t kill people.
However, even if there were such rules, Chu Mu felt that he would still kill people out of habit. After all, Guo Xian had just revealed a glaring weakness. Facing an ice attribute soul pet, Guo Xian, who was about to die, didn’t use his soul sense to protect his own soul. This kind of opening simply tempted Chu Mu to add a cold poison invasion.
“Well… Ruan Shan Demon Youth is right. We also think it’s not good to change the rules casually.” The other two challengers were even more embarrassed, and they decisively chose to give up as well.
“You don’t like the sparing form of fighting, do you? Just as well, neither do I. I also enjoy killing for fun, and your fighting style has caught my interest.” At this moment, Tian Ji, who was standing behind the Blue Nightmare Demon Palace Master, slowly walked in front of Chu Mu and spoke.
“Tian Ji is going to take action!”
“Even if these four challengers were defeated, this Henghai Young Master Yan wouldn’t be on par with Tian Ji, would he? Why would Tian Ji take the initiative to propose a fight!”
The appearance of Tian Ji was arranged by the Blue Nightmare Demon Palace
Master. However, this time Tian Ji came forward without any hints from the Blue Nightmare Demon Palace Master, indicating that this awe-inspiring powerhouse among the young generation was genuinely interested in Chu Mu.
It was obvious to everyone that the disparity in the earlier battle was too significant. On one hand, some impatient people were eager to attack, while on the other hand, they had clearly underestimated the strength of the Prison Island King.
Now, knowing the true strength of the Prison Island King, the battle between him and Tian Ji might be extremely exciting. Soon, some people showed excited eyes, hoping for a great battle between these two powerful figures.
“You can rest for two days and let your Soul Pet recover to its best condition,” said Tian Ji, dressed in grey, before turning around and leaving, ignoring the dissatisfaction of the Blue Nightmare Demon Palace Master.
“There is no need, I will leave tomorrow. If you want to fight, do it now,” Chu Mu said.
Tian Ji stopped and turned around, his lifeless eyes looking at Chu Mu. After a moment, he said, “All right, whether you rest or not, you will die.”
The rapidly rising Prison Island King and the widely famed Tian Ji ignited the flames of battle!!
The eyes of everyone present lit up, especially the Blue Nightmare Demon Palace Master. It would be even better if he could eliminate Xia Guanghan’s subordinate now, taking the opportunity to deflate Xia Guanghan’s momentum!!!
Almost unnoticed by everyone, Su Yu showed a smile. It seemed that Luo Sen, the Luoyu Nightmare Youth, wouldn’t have to take action; Chu Mu was already in deep trouble!
As the fiery battle atmosphere started to spread among the seating area, no one noticed a veiled woman in white walking in slowly, surrounded by four white-clad women. Next to this noble woman was Xia Guanghan, known as the “Cold-faced Executioner.”
“Princess Jinrou!”
“I apologize for not knowing about your arrival, Princess, and failing to greet you properly. It’s my fault, forgive me,” Zhou Luleng was the first to react, loudly shouting before prostrating on the ground.
Zhou Luleng’s exclamation immediately caught the attention of the crowd. They all looked at the elegant noblewoman and fell to the ground in panic.
“Young Master Chu, hurry up and greet the princess like the other Nightmare Youths,” Ting Yu whispered a reminder to Chu Mu and then squatted down, lowering her head, not daring to verify the identity of the Little Princess of the Nightmare Demon Palace.
When Chu Mu saw this familiar beautiful figure appear in front of him, he was stunned for a moment. After reacting, he glanced at Ruan Shan, the incredibly hypocritical Nightmare Demon Youth, and slowly knelt on one knee, placing his right hand on his chest.
As the highest honor for the young generation, Nightmare Youths did not have to prostrate when facing the princess. All they needed to do was kneel on one knee and lower their heads.
However, the Green Nightmare Demon Palace Master and the Blue Nightmare
Demon Palace Master both needed to prostrate, as they did not belong to the Inner Palace of Nightmare Demons. Although they held the power of the two major Demon Palaces, their status was somewhat lower.
“You may rise.” Jinrou, the Little Princess, said indifferently as she walked slowly to the main seat.
After beinq permitted to rise, everyone stood up and sat in their previous positions with some restraint.
The eyes of the young people lit up even more, as they felt extremely honored by the presence of the noble Princess Jinrou.
Green Nightmare Demon Palace Master and Blue Nightmare Demon Palace Master, on the other hand, wore respectful expressions but secretly wondered the reason for Princess Jinrou’s visit.
“What brings you here to watch the event, Jinrou?” Nightmare Youth Adjudicator Lu Shanli was the only one who did not bow, and when the princess arrived, he remained seated until she came, showing a gentle smile and addressing the Little Princess.
Jinrou, the Little Princess, elegantly took her seat next to Lu Shanli and said in a calm, pleasant tone, “I just have something to discuss with Brother Lu.”
“I remember that the Prison Island King should be your new follower. Why don’t you take a look at his strength first, Jinrou? It’s always impolite to interrupt someone’s battle,” Lu Shanli said unhurriedly.
“Very well, I heard that the Prison Island King fought against five opponents, right?” Princess Jinrou’s eyes slowly fell on Chu Mu, her gaze still filled with an unfathomable sadness.
Chu Mu met her eyes, but Feng Xiang beside him immediately glared at him, coldly reminding Chu Mu that Nightmare Youths could not directly look at the princess unless they had special privileges.
“Hehe, it’s funny, after the first challenger was killed, the others were too afraid to fight this King of Slaughter. Now it’s the Blue Nightmare Demon Palace’s Tian Ji who’s fighting him,” said Lu Shanli with a laugh.
As Lu Shanli said this, the four challengers were even more embarrassed, having lost face in front of the princess whom they greatly admired.
