Chapter 990: Wow, Look at the Monster!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Qian Yu was really stunned.
She always thought that she was the main person taking charge of the battle against Monster Emperor Baizhi and Chi Guyan would act as a support. However, the reality gave her a painful slap her on her face.
Slap! Her cheeks hurt.
At this moment, she finally understood why Chi Guyan did not have to act as a mysterious individual and made use of her authority to overpower others. That was because Chi Guyan did not care about it at all.
She severed one of Monster Emperor Baizhi’s tails with one strike of her sword!
This was way beyond Qian Yu’s capability as Chi Guyan was in fact powerful enough to kill Monster Emperor Baizhi. With such powers, how would Chi Guyan continue to act to stay in authority?
It was like a giant versus a baby.
Did she need to push further?
Not at all. She could simply kill the baby by lifting her foot and stepping on him.
It was simple and straightforward.
Similarly, Chi Guyan did not give Monster Emperor Baizhi any chances since the start of the battle. She simply went straight to her and severed her tail.
That was what resulted in the miserable scene in front of her.
Qian Yu held on to the small jade tower tightly in her hands but did not have any intention to use it because she did not need to use it in the Ling Yun Realm.
She neither took the main or supporting role in this battle.
She only had to watch quietly at the side. If she wanted to, she could even bring a chair over, drink some tea and munch on some snacks.
“Sigh, times have changed and each generation surpa.s.sed the preceding generation. Looks like the older generation is destined to lose out.” Qian Yu sighed. She had finally made the decision to commit fully to the great battle between humankind and the monster race and demon race, but n.o.body gave her the chance to do so.
A gust of cool air blew past and blew Qian Yu’s hair.
Monster Emperor Baizhi had long rolled to the side and destroyed the entire stone house she was living in.
The big commotion caused all the surrounding Monster Kings to be taken aback.
After all, they had never seen Monster Emperor Baizhi behaving so improperly before. However, they understood the reason why after they saw the severed white fox tail on the ground.
It was not the Monster Emperor Baizhi who was behaving improperly, but rather because Chi Guyan was a powerful “monster”.
“Hurry, hurry up and save Lady Empress!”
“Send signals!”
“Send signals to the Sir Monster Deity!”
A huge crowd of monsters swarmed towards Monster Emperor Baizhi while a red signal was shot up and painted the entire sky red.
“Signal?” Qian Yu narrowed her eyes.
Based on the intelligence report given to her, Monster Emperor Baizhi, ten Monster Kings and some of the monsters from the Monster troops were guarding on the Heaven Zen Mountain.
However, if the intelligence report was accurate…
Who was the signal meant for?
Wait a minute!
There were G.o.dly State experts guarding on the G.o.dly State expert!
Qian Yu quickly came to this realization as she would have not been able to monitor the presence of the G.o.dly State experts and their numbers from the intelligence report.
“Guyan, let’s leave now!” Qian Yu made her decision quickly. If there were only Monster Emperor Baizhi and ten Monster Kings, with the capability of the Ling Yun Tower and Chi Guyan, they had stood a chance to win.
However, once the G.o.dly State experts came into the picture, they would have completely lost control of the situation and might even perish.
“Leave?! Hahaha… you won’t be able to leave!” As Qian Yu’s voice was heard, a deep ear-deafening voice was also heard from the foot of the mountain.
After that, the ground started to tremor.
It was a tremor caused by the metal hoofs which were as heavy as mountains. The rumbling continued and a gigantic figure soon appeared in front of Qian Yu.
It was a beast.
If it was called a beast, it was definitely not ordinary.
Qian Yu’s eyes widened.
The beast had five heads — red, green, purple, silver and black — which looked like the heads of monkeys.
However, below the five heads was a fit body that looked like a lion. Brown fur covered the necks of the five heads and scales which were black and glistening extended all the way from the necks to the four claws.
The claws looked like those of the eagle.
Moreover, the beast was at least 50 feet tall and it creates another “hump” on the Heaven Zen Mountain.
Poof! The beast breathed out and the violent airwaves blew the small stones on the ground up and caused them to rotate around its head.
The G.o.dly State expert of the Monster Race!
Five-headed lion beast?!
“Are there only two of them?” Chi Guyan’s calm voice was heard while Qian Yu was taken aback. Chi Guyan looked at the G.o.dly State experts in slight disappointment.
“Two?! Since when were there two?” Qian Yu looked at the five-headed lion beast in front of her but did not see the second one.
However, at this moment, a burst of coa.r.s.e laughter was heard.
Then, a pet.i.te figure popped out of the neck of the five-headed lion beast. It was a short person who was emaciated and less than 1.2 meters in height.
His head was bald and he was wearing a torn grey cape. He looked extremely unsightly.
However, this pet.i.te man was standing on top of the five-headed lion beast. Every single G.o.dly State expert of the Monster Race was arrogant, how would they possibly allow others to stand on their heads?
This reason why this happened was not because of the level of powers. The only reason why this scenario could possibly happen was that the short man was the owner of the five-headed lion beast.
In other words, the five-headed lion beast, a G.o.dly State expert, was the beast that the short man rode on.
“Little child, you have pretty good eyesight. Since you are young and looks… pretty decent… Alright, I will show mercy on you and give you a chance. You can be a “servant” for me, hurry and kneel down to thank me.” The short man’s eyes lit up instantly when he saw Chi Guyan.
“Only two of them? Looks like the shameless thief must be really pressured,” Chi Guyan continued mumbling to herself as if she did not hear the short man’s words.
“Little child, I am talking to you, are you listening… hmm? Little child, you are cruel!” The young man realized that Chi Guyan disappeared suddenly just as he was about to continue.
After that, he suddenly felt chills from his back.
The intense sense of crisis forced him to stop his sentence and he slapped behind him without any hesitation.
However…
He did not manage to hit anything.
After that, he saw a figure in front of him who was wearing a pink dress and had long black hair.
Her beauty was above all living things and she was extremely arrogant.
Chi Guyan did not attack from the back of the short man. Instead, she went straight to the front of the short man and the five-headed lion beast. This method of attack definitely shocked them.
The more shocking thing was that the short man actually felt the chills behind him.
What was going on?
The short man was slightly confused but he regained his senses quickly. He definitely was unable to retreat his attack after he had slapped.
Although he made the wrong move, he was not overly bothered by that.
That was because he had the five-headed lion beast below his feet. With the presence of the five-headed lion beast, how would a G.o.dly State expert of the Monster Race be afraid of Chi Guyan?
A beam of sword radiance landed from the sky.
Like a waterfall that fell from the mountain top, it sliced down at the short man and the five-headed lion beast with a sharp whistle.
Chi Guyan’s strike was an ordinary strike of the sword.
Without much fanciful moves or changes between the fake and the real moves, it was a clean and straightforward move that made it impossible for one to dodge it.
That was because her sword was extremely fast.
Roar! The five monkey heads of the five-headed lion beast looked up with a bloodthirsty look in their eyes. Flames shot out from one of the heads while blue ice crystals shot out from the other.
When the flames and ice crystals merged, a gigantic blazing ice blue armor was formed while other colors of radiance appeared in the. mouths of the other three monkey heads.
Five heads that represented the five elements!
Being able to master the five elements at the same time as a G.o.dly State expert was already extraordinary. However, if it was able to merge the five elements together, it showed a lot about the capability of the five-headed lion beast.
However, Chi Guyan did not seem to bother about this.
That was because her sword did not stop at all. Even though the gigantic blazing ice blue armor was in front of it, it continued advancing forward.
Crack!
The gigantic blazing ice blue armor cracked open and the flames split into half as though they were blown by a gust of air.
And the gigantic blazing ice blue armor broke from the center. Countless ice crystals flew and turned into sparks in the sky.
However, despite this, Chi Guyan’s sword did not stop moving.
Not only did it not stop, but it did not even slow down at all. The silvery-white radiance mixed with the purple radiance, producing an extremely loud whistle.
The expression on the short man’s face changed.
If he was said to have an arrogant expression earlier on, he was now showing an astonished look.
However, it was too late.
Chi Guyan’s Traceless Sword had already struck on the monkey head which was spitting out flames.
Boom!
The five-headed lion beast fell forward. It could no longer balance due to the powerful force that pressed on its head.
Its body that was as tall and big as a mountain suddenly collapsed on the ground.
However, this was not the end.
Chi Guyan’s sword continued to strike downwards. It sliced from the gigantic monkey head along to the thick fur in the five-headed lion beast’s neck.
Crack! Blood splattered across the air.
A monkey head rolled to the side.
Blood spurted out from the place where the five-headed lion beast’s head was severed and stained Chi Guyan’s pink dress completely red.
The eyes on the other four monkey heads of the five-headed lion beast stared were wide open.
It was a look of disbelief. Following that, an agonizing roar was heard and it echoed through the air in the Heaven Zen Mountain.
Boom!
Boom!
“…”
The five-headed lion beast rolled on the floor and the blood slowly solidified from the cut on the neck. However, a new head did not grow out and instead, a gigantic b.l.o.o.d.y scar was formed.
The short man had already jumped down from the five-headed lion beast. However, his face was extremely pale and was as white as a sheet of paper.
“How is this possible?” The short man could not believe it.
He was extremely aware of the power of the five-headed lion beast. He had once put in so much effort in order to get it under his control.
Even though he finally got it under his control…
He had made use of the weakness of the five-headed lion beast.
The weakness of the five-headed lion beast was definitely not on the five monkey heads.
However, Chi Guyan has sliced off one of the five monkey heads of the five-headed lion beast with one strike of her sword?!
How exaggerated was this!
In reality, the short man was already mentally prepared when he saw Monster Emperor Baizhi’s white fox tail being severed.
However, no matter how mentally prepared he was, he had never expected Chi Guyan to become so powerful that he could not even get used to it.
At this moment…
The atmosphere on the Heaven Zen Mountain became extremely strange.
All of the Monster Kings and the disciples of the Ling Yun Tower stopped moving and everyone stared at the five-headed lion beast.
Shock, astonishment, fear.
A mixture of emotions flooded their minds.
“She managed to sever one of the heads of the G.o.dly State expert of the Monster Race with one strike of her sword?!”
“How is this possible, am I seeing things?”
“Chi Guyan is so powerful?!”
The Monster Kings and the disciples of the Ling Yun Tower all could not believe it as this scene was after all so exaggerated that it was unbelievable.
Apart from them, even Qian Yu felt stunned. She initially thought she had seen through the powers of Chi Guyan but what happened in front of her made her realize that she only managed to see a small part of her.
Being able to severe the fox tail of the Nine-Tailed White Fox was nothing. The real deal came when she was able to severe the monkey head of the G.o.dly State expert of the Monster Race.
Qian Yu could not imagine how Chi Guyan managed to become so powerful in six months’ time. This way exceeded her realm of imagination.
The peak of sage state?!
Wait a minute!
If she was at the peak of sage state, how could she possibly kill a G.o.dly State expert?
If she was not at the peak of sage state, then what was she?
Unless Chi Guyan managed to break through the legendary G.o.dly State in six months’ time?!
“How is this possible?!” Qian Yu’s mouth was so big that a fist could fit into it.
Moreover, she was extremely sure that Chi Guyan’s capability originated from the utmost Gifted Bloodline of the Holy Region. That was what made Chi Guyan terrifying.
However, now, there was not even a shadow behind Chi Guyan.
If she managed to kill a G.o.dly State expert without using the Gifted Bloodline, then how powerful would she have been if she used it?!
