Chapter 239: Chapter 120: Killing for Quick Money

“MO Ye, go scout first.” Chu Mu ordered MO Ye, who was assessing Chu Lian’s situation.
MO Ye was significantly faster than the Night Thunder Dream Beast when operating at full speed. Upon Chu Mu’s command, MO Ye immediately carved a winding arc among the jagged rocks and vanished from Chu Mu’s sight.
“Ye, shadow, night chase.” Chu Mu commanded the Night Thunder Dream Beast. The beast immediately activated Extreme Shadow, boosting its speed by about a third, and then activated Night Chase.
The speed Rained from Nizht Chase did not increase instantlv like Extreme Shadow. Instead, it accumulated as the Night Thunder Dream Beast ran. As long as there was no obstacle, its speed could continue to increase, reaching up to triple its original speed and maintaining this speed during the run.
Ye Qingzi had not gone far when Chu Mu, charging in the darkness, spotted her. But two night-walking soul pets had appeared beside her and the Purple Robe Dream Beast.
“Ghostwing White Bone Blood Demon?” In the darkness, Chu Mu immediately identified the ghostlineage soul pet hovering ten meters in the air and radiating a sense of blood terror.
The battle power of ghostlineage soul pets greatly increases at night. Moreover, their battle power would become even more terrifying in areas dense with death energy. Therefore, the standard response when encountering a ghostlineage soul pet at night would be to retreat.
The Ghostwing White Bone Blood Demon was in the air, and on the ground was a Horror Wolf. Both were commander-level soul pets. Riding on the backs of these two pets were two soul pet masters, chasing Ye Qingzi’s Purple Robe Dream Beast from above and below.
“Chu Chen, come.” As Ye Qingzi ran towards Chu Mu’s position and saw him approaching on the Night Thunder Dream Beast, she immediately communicated to Chu Mu with her soul sense.
“Ye, Death Light!”
“Hoo-
While the Night Thunder Dream Beast was running, a dark light concentrated in its mouth. The light condensed into an energy wave and spurted from the beast’s mouth, blasting towards the Ghostwing White Bone Blood Demon in the air.
The Ghostwing White Bone Blood Demon was at a high rank. As the Death Light approached, its body suddenly faded and quickly dissolved into the darkness.
The Death Light passed through without hitting the body of the Ghostwing White Bone Blood Demon, shooting straight towards the black sky.
Just as he launched his attack, Ye Qingzi had already run over. Without hesitation, Chu Mu changed direction, waiting for Ye Qingzi to run past him before trailing her slightly, running towards the territory of the Star-swallowing Wolf.
“They are quite powerful, we need to be careful.” Ye Qingzi communicated to Chu Mu using her soul sense.
Chu Mu nodded and said to Ye Qingzi, “You go past the territory of the
Star-swallowing Wolves and head back first. I’ll lead them away.”
“Isn’t that a bit dangerous?” Ye Qingzi looked at Chu Mu, worrying that it might be risky for him to do this. After all, there was a sixth-rank eighth-stage
Ghostwing White Bone Blood Demon and a sixth-rank fifth-stage Horror Wolf. For a seventh-stage Night Thunder Dream Beast, these two soul pets should not be that threatening, but there must be other soul pets associated with these two soul pet masters.
“My Night Thunder Dream Beast has the Night Dance skill, so it can easily shake them off.” Chu Mu said.
Ye Qingzi nodded and directed her Purple Robe Dream Beast to change direction, swiftly disappearing from Chu Mu’s field of vision.
Chu Mu intentionally waited for the two soul pets in the same spot. Once they had discovered him, he immediately directed the Night Thunder Dream Beast to lead them towards the edge of the mountains.
Glancing back at the winged Ghostwing White Bone Blood Demon and the running Horror Wolf, a grin spread across Chu Mu’s face as he commanded the Night Thunder Dream Beast to set a Night Dream Trap for the Horror Wolf.
Dreamland skills were ineffective against ghostlineage soul pets. As the Night Thunder Dream Beast dealt with the Horror Wolf, Chu Mu naturally made preparations for MO Ye, who had been hiding for a long time, to attack the Ghostwing White Bone Blood Demon.
“Ha, there’s nowhere for you to run now… ” The soul pet master riding the
Horror Wolf saw Chu Mu at the edge of the mountain and burst into laughter.
If Chu Mu jumped off the nearly fifty-meter-high cliff, there wouldn’t be much impact. However, the bottom was the most dense territory of the Star-swallowing Wolves. If he jumped down, he would definitely be chased by the wolf pack.
“Humph, for those who dare to rob us, the Yang Family of the Luo region of any spirit items, get lost early if you don’t want to die.” The man in the air riding the Ghostwing White Bone Blood Demon threatened.
Chu Mu was already intent on killing, especially when his interests conflicted with his enemies. Now, having heard that they were from the Yang Family, his desire to kill surged again.
“MO Ye, Crown Flame Claw!” Chu Mu sneered and gave the order to MO Ye, who had been completely overlooked by the two.
“Woof woo—”
Under the silver moonlight, the exquisite figure of MO Ye appeared mysteriously in the air!
MO Ye’s claws had reached the late seventh stage, and the infusion of the sixth-level Soul Claw’s effect meant that, even without using skills, their power was quite close to level eight!
However, the effect of the Crown Flame Claw directly boosted MO Ye’s attack to level eight. Such an attack was simply not something an unenhanced Ghostwing White Bone Blood Demon could withstand.
Two streams of fire streaked across the sky, and long claws slid down the unknown body of a Soul Pet Master, then glided across the skull of the Ghostwing White Bone Blood Demon!!
Without even time to scream out, as MO Ye touched down under the moonlight at near seventh-rank, half the skull of the Ghostwing White Bone Blood Demon had already fallen from the sky, blood spraying wildly everywhere.
The Soul Pet Master who commanded the Ghostwing White Bone Blood Demon didn’t have time to defend at all. His fifth-level Soul Armor offered only the weakest of protection; his body was cleaved by MO Ye’s claws, the Double Crown Flame spreading up and down from the waist, his body turned to ashes by the flames even before it had fallen to the ground.
Instant kill!
MO Ye fully demonstrated his commanding stature as a Seventh-Rank Monarch, not only instantly killing the sixth-rank eighth-stage Ghostwing White Bone Blood Demon but also the opponent’s Soul Pet Master!
The Soul Pet Master who controlled the Horror Wolf was completely dumbfounded. That was a sixth-rank eighth-stage commander, with a defensive power of over level six even without any enhancements. The increase in his battling power due to the effects of the night had already reached the peak of the sixth stage. This kind of Soul Pet is absolutely terrifying among the younger generation, with this one surprisingly instantly killed, even killing the Soul Pet Master along with it!
“Shattered Dream’s Evil Arrival!” While this Soul Pet Master was still stunned, Chu Mu immediately gave orders to the Night Thunder Dream Beast.
The Night Thunder Dream Beast’s skills were already ready for release. The mental skills displayed by a peak seventh-rank Commander was already quite dominant. Add to that Chu Mu’s Soul Lord-level soul sense, a sixth-rank fifth-stage Horror Wolf and a Thought Soul Master had no way to resist!
“MO Ye, check if there are any other Soul Pet Masters and Soul Pets nearby.” Chu Mu said to MO Ye.
Falling entirely into the dream realm, with spiritual control lasting up to ten seconds, this Soul Pet Master and his Soul Pet were bound to die without a doubt. What Chu Mu needs to confirm now is whether there are any other people present.
MO Ye circled around nearby, returning after Chu Mu, and the Night Thunder Dream Beast had dealt with the Soul Pet Master who had controlled the Horror Wolf. They had already begun to tally up the spoils of war.
“Fifth-level Soul Armor, fourth-level Soul Claws, fifth-level dual soul crystal…” Chu Mu had specially instructed MO Ye that when he killed, he couldn’t burn everything clean. He must leave things like Soul Armor, space rings and the like. MO Ye remembered this time.
The price of the fifth-level Soul Armor was roughly about 1,000,000 gold coins, the price of a fourth-level Soul Claw was about 200,000, and all the other miscellaneous items combined were an additional 1.5 million Gold Coins.
Even after finding five Cold Spring Pools, they only obtained a few tens of thousands from the dividends. Killing two people yielded assets worth 1.5 million. They were quick to realize that killing people for profit was the most substantial source of income. It stirred Chu Mu’s thoughts again about Ye Wansheng’s proposal.
Gradient Mountain was home to many Soul Pets, with small hollows behind large boulders visible everywhere. These small caves were very shallow, typically resting places for individual Soul Pet Masters.
Chu Xing, Chu Ning, and Ye Wansheng adjusted here. All three of them stayed vigilant, quietly waiting for news from Chu Mu and Ye Qingzi.
When the Dream Beast runs, it hardly makes a sound. When Ye Qingzi returned, Chu Xing and Chu Ning had no idea at all. Only Ye Wansheng, who was familiar with his sister’s habits, detected her return.
“Where’s Chu Mu? Did you abandon him?” Ye Wansheng looked at his sister who had returned alone and asked.
“We ran into two Soul Pet Masters who claimed to be from the Yang Clan of Luo region. He asked me to come back first and went to distract those two people on his own.” Ye Qingzi said.
“Won’t he be in trouble?” Ye Wansheng glanced at Chu Xing and Chu Ning.
Chu Xing and Chu Ning were confident in Chu Mu’s strength and both shook their heads, stating: “Don’t worry. The fourth brother is the strongest one among us. He excels at all kinds of wilderness battles. He should be okay, but…”
“But what?” Ye Wansheng, seeing Chu Xing and Chu Ning showing difficulty, asked confusedly.
“But it seems like we’ve encountered a tough nail this time. The power of the Yang Clan from Luo Region is very strong and somewhat difficult to deal with.” Chu Ning said.
Both Chu Ning and Chu Xing knew that this time they hadn’t just encountered the descendants of the Yang family in Gangluo City, but also the descendants of the Yang Clan in Luo region. Although Luo Region was controlled by the Luo Gate, the Yang Clan was also a major power. The strength of the team they had dispatched was undoubtedly very strong.
“What’s so great about the Yang Clan of Luo Region? Those two bitches claimed to be part of the Yangs of Luo region when I saw them in the city.” Ye Wansheng asked.
Listening to Ye Wansheng, both Chu Xing and Chu Ning were left speechless.
Ye Wansheng had previously quarreled with members of the Yang Clan, and he was not aware that they were members of a significant regional family. Luckily they were in a hurry. If they had taken it seriously, Ye Wansheng would have caused a lot of trouble.
Chu Ning introduced the situation of the Yang Clan from Luo Region to Ye Wansheng and Ye Qingzi, making them realize that the competitor they encountered this time was potent. However, what surprised Chu Xing and Chu Ning was that upon hearing that the other party was a core disciple of a regional family, the Ye siblings showed no reaction whatsoever…
