Chapter 950: Arrival of the Green-robed Ancestor
Translator: Lordbluefire
This secret realm was named the Greenhaze Forest. The aboriginals here were called greenhaze people, and they had lived here for generations.
The word ‘green’ meant nature, while ‘haze’ meant the morning mist. When joined together, it meant this place was protected by nature and mist.
Once the aboriginals appeared, about half of them immediately rushed toward Ma Hankang in anger. As for the others, the pressure they were facing wasn’t that great.
There was no solution to it. Who told Ma Hankang to dissect one of their tribesmen before their very eyes?
“Leave quickly!”
Sun Mo urged.
He only had to deal with five aboriginals here, so this could be considered fortune amidst misfortune.
However, these fellows were very cunning. They moved around and avoided adult teachers, choosing to attack the students first.
This was actually a general battle strategy when it came to hunting prey. One should always kill the cubs first to cause chaos and take the chance to hunt the adult prey.
Sun Mo attacked an individual. At the same time, his body shook and 12 darkness illusion clones appeared. His aura was enough to cow the aboriginals.
However, Sun Mo had underestimated their courage. They didn’t seem to fear anything and were courageously fighting at the risk of their lives.
A somewhat familiar female voice attracted Sun Mo’s attention.
He turned his head and saw a green-skinned woman close to 1.9 meters tall shouting to her comrades. After that, her comrades immediately ignored the enemies before them and went to surround Ma Hankang.
“Sun Mo, be careful!”
Bai Xiqing was badly shocked.
This scene indicated that this female aboriginal was extremely powerful and had the strength to destroy their opponents completely. Otherwise, the other aboriginals wouldn’t trust her so much.
Sun Mo frowned and felt somewhat puzzled.
“This is your last chance. Leave our homeland immediately or I will kill all of you.”
The female aboriginal received one of Sun Mo’s attacks and spoke in a low voice.
“It’s you?”
Sun Mo was enlightened.
No wonder her voice was somewhat familiar. She was none other than the mysterious person who had hidden in the shadows and suddenly attacked, killing Lu Cangqiong with an arrow when they were at the flower field.
The expression of the female aboriginal was cold. She wielded her long spear and was herding Sun Mo.
Among the greenhaze aboriginals, they were split into the conservative faction and the pro-war faction.
The former wanted to do their best to avoid conflict, and it was fine as long as they could drive the invaders away. After all, they were too weak. Once a war began, their race might be completely annihilated.
On the other hand, the other faction didn’t care about this and swore to kill all invaders.
When the various school groups entered the Greenhaze Forest, the aboriginals also started to move.
Lian Fangcao, which was the name of this female aboriginal, had discovered Sun Mo’s group long ago. However, she didn’t sneak attack them immediately because she wanted to observe their characters and style of doing things to see if there was a chance for them to interact and communicate.
Sun Mo’s performance was simply too outstanding.
As they traveled, Sun Mo explained the various herbs and species his group had encountered effortlessly.
Honestly speaking, for some of the plants, even Lian Fangcao’s ancestors who had stayed here for generations might not know better than Sun Mo.
Sun Mo’s profound knowledge caused Lian Fangcao to feel plenty of good will for him.
And when they encountered a crisis later on, Sun Mo placed the lives of his students first. He was also intelligent and brave, making use of the monkey to find ‘No Return’ and prank his enemies.
After that, they went to the Life-Death Flower Sea and he meticulously discovered that after drinking the crown bee’s honey, they could escape the illusion and obtain the Life-Death Flower.
This was a wise man.
Lian Fangcao understood that there were simply too many enemies. Before she could kill all of them, the people on her side would be annihilated. Hence, she had to find a kind and reliable person among her enemies to negotiate with.
Just like earlier, Sun Mo had stopped that invader from dissecting the corpse of one of her tribe members. This indicated that he was someone with sympathy. Hence, at this moment, Lian Fangcao decided to secretly let Sun Mo’s group go and give him a favor first.
“It can’t be right, this can work as well?”
Li Ruolan and Bai Xiqing were stunned.
Originally, the two women were nervous due to being sneak-attacked. But at the next moment, they saw the aboriginal going easy on Sun Mo.
“As expected of Teacher Sun. He has boundless charm and can even subdue female aboriginals.
Bai Xiqing felt wors.h.i.+p for Sun Mo in her heart.
“Don’t speak blindly. Leave quickly.”
Sun Mo urged.
He knew that the female aboriginal understood their language. If they accidentally antagonized her, the losses wouldn’t make up for the gains.
However, Sun Mo still couldn’t control himself and decided to survey this female aboriginal.
Her figure was simply too tyrannical.
She was different from the male aboriginals who wore leather skirts. This female used a piece of beast skin to wrap her chest, but her slender waist and shoulders were revealed. She was filled with a sense of beauty that originated from wildness and strength.
She had a melon-like face with mysterious tattoos on it. Her eyes were amber-colored, her ears were sharp, and she looked like an elf from western mythological stories.
“What a pity!”
Sun Mo sighed.
If it wasn’t for her skin being too green, she would definitely be a top-grade beauty. This was especially so to guys who loved women from other races. She would be filled with ‘killing prowess’.
Naturally, for things like skin color, it didn’t matter once the lights were off.
Murong Mingyue moved forward and took the initiative to lead the way. After all, Sun Mo surely wanted to guard their backs. Li Ruolan was too weak, and as for Bai Xiqing… Murong Mingyue was worried about her ability to be the vanguard.
However, before she could move far, a large swarm of black gu-bugs suddenly appeared from the surrounding gra.s.s.
Swish~
Murong Mingyue flicked her sleeves and created a powerful gust of wind, wanting to blow the bugs away. At the same time, a puppet charged forward and sprayed a large amount of poisonous liquid.
Creak! Creak!
“Since you all have arrived, there’s no need to leave anymore.”
A middle-aged man appeared before Murong Mingyue and struck out with his palms.
Murong Mingyue wasn’t afraid.
“Ah? Didn’t you die already?”
Bai Xiqing saw that the appearance of this middle-aged man was the same as the dead Lu Cangqiong. Hence, she couldn’t help but exclaim in shock.
Lu Wuyin, who originally had a leisurely expression, frowned severely after hearing this.
“What? You guys killed my younger brother?!”
Lu Wuyin’s expression immediately turned malevolent. “I will kill all of you!”
“Mingyue, retreat!”
Sun Mo rushed forward and activated his Invulnerable and Indestructible Golden Body, forcefully blocking the palms of Lu Wuyin.
Bang! Bang!
After two attacks, Sun Mo and Murong Mingyue coughed up blood as they felt their blood churning wildly within them.
“Teacher!”
The students were all greatly anxious.
“Cangqiong is so strong, how is it possible that you guys killed him?”
Lu Wuyin roared, “Speak, what methods did you all use?”
Just a single person was enough to block Sun Mo’s group from fleeing.
There was no solution. This was the strength of a major character at the Longevity Realm.
Truthfully speaking, Sun Mo and Murong Mingyue could already feel proud. Others would have been smacked to death by Lu Wuyin’s palm strikes.
“Wuyin, stay your hand!”
An aged voice suddenly rang out, berating Lu Wuyin.
“But Teacher, they killed my younger brother!”
Lu Wuyin felt very indignant and wanted to kill Sun Mo for revenge.
“Don’t make me repeat myself!”
An old man suddenly appeared at the creek area. He wasn’t tall and had a stooped posture, holding an ordinary-looking wooden walking cane.
This old man was clad in a simple and unadorned green robe. However, he had a bug-shaped mask on his face that covered his true appearance.
Truthfully speaking, this green mask was very disgusting. It was like a face-hugger from the movie ‘Alien’.
“Roger!”
Lu Wuyin vengefully cast a glance at Sun Mo. After that, he started to guard against these aboriginals. As for the groups from the famous schools, he wasn’t worried about them at all.
Although the aboriginals hadn’t seen much of the world before, they weren’t fools. The powerful aura radiating from this old man caused them to retract their rage and be on their guards.
“G…green-robed ancestor?”
The bodies of Ma Hankang and Yang Xuecai subconsciously trembled.
This was a Half-Saint!
Just like the saying, ‘the ignorant are fearless’, these students were too weak and basically couldn’t sense the strength of the Green-robed Ancestor.
“Continue to fight, don’t stop.”
Lu Wuyin ridiculed.
According to their plan, they would wait until both parties were heavily injured before they came out and took over everything. But it was unknown why the female aboriginal had decided to let Sun Mo and his group leave.
This was definitely not allowed. Hence, Lu Wuyin appeared to obstruct them.
Naturally, given the Green-robed Ancestor’s strength, he was completely capable of suppressing the people here.
He looked at that corpse that was dissected and spoke in an unhappy tone.
“What a waste!”
As he spoke, the Green-robed Ancestor flicked his finger.
Pak!
A ball of green light shot toward Ma Hankang.
Ma Hankang felt a sense of looming crisis. He couldn’t care about anything else and directly dashed into the forest. However, the ball of light also sped up.
Woosh~
The ball of light was like a bullet and directly blasted into the back of Ma Hankang’s head.
His body violently trembled. After that, it looked like his body was instantly inflated by ten air pumps, and he exploded after some time.
Scattered pieces of flesh and blood splashed onto the gra.s.s in the surroundings.
A 6-star great teacher had been crushed to death easily like how one would crush maggots. This caused the tension in the air to grow immensely that not a single person dared to breathe loudly.
“Sun Mo, kneel and kowtow. Become my student!”
The Green-robed Ancestor spoke.
Swish~
Everyone gazed over. This was especially so for the great teachers and students from the Royal Academy, Leap Academy, and Swallowsea Academy. All of them were incomparably shocked.
Sun Mo was actually so outstanding to this extent that a Half-Saint would take the initiative to recruit him?
One must know that from their conversations, Sun Mo seemed to have killed one of his disciples. Was the Half-Saint not planning to take revenge?
“Are you not afraid that I’ll be at odds with you after I take you on as my teacher?”
Sun Mo counter-asked.
“I don’t care what thoughts you have. I only wish to pa.s.s my capabilities down to the next generation.”
The Green-robed Ancestor’s tone was very calm.
At his current realm, he already didn’t care about things like betrayal. As long as there was a person who could inherit his teachings, his studies and effort through this lifetime would not be wasted.
Publis.h.i.+ng their theories, establis.h.i.+ng their sect, having students all around the world, becoming Saints so their name could s.h.i.+ne in glory for ten thousand generations…This could be said to be the dream of every great teacher.
Because the Green-robed Ancestor was too focused on research during his early years and had no interest in accepting disciples, when he finally wanted to do so, his status as a dark great teacher had become a great obstacle.
It was impossible for him to accept many disciples, so he could only seek out elite and talented people. Sadly, all his current personal students weren’t accomplished enough.
Just think about it, how high the Green-robed Ancestor’s judgment must be? The students he could look up to would definitely be people with outstanding talent.
As for people like that, they had a boundless future in the great teacher world. Why would they join the Dark Dawn and follow the Green-robed Ancestor to risk being persecuted?
Hence, this formed into an intractable problem.
“I’m quite accomplished in botany, herbology, study of bugs, and alchemy. I’m quite sure I’m capable enough to teach you.”
The Green-robed Ancestor was very confident.
“Teacher, it seems that you won’t make a loss!”
Qin Yaoguang mumbled in a low voice.
There was only a need to learn, but no need to fulfill the responsibility of being a student. This was the best thing under the heavens.
“Sun Mo, don’t agree or your reputation will be finished.”
Li Ruolan persuaded.
“But if he doesn’t agree, he will die.”
Bai Xiqing despaired. There was no need for the Green-robed Ancestor to act.. A single Lu Wuyin was enough to exterminate all of them.
