Chapter 961: Ripened Mutated Fruit, Mutated and Rebirth!
“Yes!”
Yang Tian nodded repeatedly. There was a hint of fear in his eyes as he looked at the Jade Emperor Temple, “Old Ye, there was an ancient almighty who was in a deep sleep in the temple. He claimed to be Saint Li Tian. He was the one who suppressed the patriarch inside.
“I know that you’ve made a trip to Shang Santian and your strength has greatly increased. However, you mustn’t be careless!”
At this point, he could not help but remind, “These old geezers are as cunning as foxes!”
“I know. Take the medicinal pill first to recover!” Ye Chen smiled nonchalantly.
Just when Yang Tian was about to consume the medicinal pill, he suddenly felt something flash before his eyes. It was like a hurricane had arrived, and the medicinal pill in his hand disappeared.
Ye Chen focused his gaze and looked at the chubby thing next to Yang Tian.
It was the panda from earlier. From the looks of it, it was only the size of a one-year-old child.
It sat on the ground with Yang Tian’s pill in his hand. He gulped, “It smells so good.”
“Screw you! It’s mine!” Yang Tian’s face turned green. He pounced over and tried to take the pill back without saying anything.
However, the panda was faster than him. It stuffed the pill into its mouth and swallowed it.
“Wow, it’s even better than the director’s secret stash of Liuwei Dihuang teapills!”
The little fatty smacked its lips and ignored Yang Tian’s cries. It looked at Ye Chen pitifully with dark circles around its eyes, “Kind person, do you still have more of the candy?”
‘What?’
A gleam flashed through Ye Chen’s eyes. He then looked at Yang Tian, “Where did you get this guy?”
“I picked it up!”
Yang Tian seemed to be tired of scolding. He said weakly, “I picked it up on the way when I was being chased by the five consortiums. This guy kept pestering me shamelessly. He said he escaped from Zoo Tianfu. Oh right, his name is Foolish Qiang!”
‘Panda mutation?’
“Yes!”
The little fatty said, “I escaped from the zoo. I separated ways with my First Uncle, Second Uncle, Third Uncle, and Fourth Uncle.”
As it spoke, it counted on its fingers and said, “I’m so hungry. I haven’t eaten for days. I’m so young, helpless and pitiful!”
Mist gathered in its dark circles.
It felt wronged, sad, and beaten.
Yang Tian could not take it anymore, “Alright, alright. Jeez, never mind that you ate my medicinal pill!”
However, Ye Chen did not buy it. He took out his phone and searched for the keywords ‘Zoo Tianfu’ on the Internet. He saw a headline immediately.
“Half a year ago, a meteorite landed in the city’s Zoo Tianfu. Overnight, ferocious beasts had escaped…
“As the staff stopped them from escaping, a Siberian Tiger, a big, gray wolf, black bear, snow leopard and a newborn panda are still missing.”
Ye Chen took a good look at the panda before him after he was done looking at it. He was starting to suspect if the First Uncle, Second Uncle, Third Uncle, and Fourth Uncle were the ones who got lost.
He took out another medicinal pill and tossed it at Yang Tian.
This time, Yang Tian was smart. He swallowed it without saying anything. Then, he smacked his lips and said, “This candy is amazing.”
At that moment, a strange phenomenon suddenly appeared in the air. Someone said, “The mutant fruit has ripened!”
As the voice fell, everyone could not help but look at the mutant fruit in the distance. They saw that the purple aura on the mutant fruit suddenly surged, and its divine splendor was brilliant. It was as if the evening sun was about to set on the mountain.
“Take it, whoever takes it will own it!”
Even though Ye Chen’s lightning-like methods had stunned everyone earlier, there were still people who could not hold themselves back with the mutant fruit in front of them.
In an instant, several dozen figures rushed forward.
“Ah…”
During this process, screams could be heard from time to time. Obviously, these mutants were also attacking each other.
It was reality. Neither of them wanted the other to take the matured Purple Embryo Fruit before them.
Ye Chen watched the scene with a mocking expression. He had no intention of taking action at all. On the contrary, Yang Tian was anxious, “Old Ye, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and take it. The patriarch wants it.”
Ye Chen did not explain. Finally, a level-7 mutant approached the mutant fruit. Just when he reached out to pick it in joy, a small snake the size of a finger suddenly fell on him.
Hiss…
“What is this?”
The man subconsciously wanted to slap it away, but the moment he did so, the small snake that was as thick as a finger suddenly enlarged multiple times.
A b.l.o.o.d.y mouth came biting.
The man’s entire arm was bitten off, and he was swallowed by the giant snake.
Such a b.l.o.o.d.y and brutal scene immediately caused the people charging maniacally behind to stop in their tracks. Their scalps went numb as they watched this scene.
At the next moment, everyone felt something dim above their heads, as if something was blocking the light. They looked up at the same time.
What entered their eyes was a giant bat that was more than three meters in size.
The bat fully spread its wings and descended like a black curtain that blotted out the sky. Demonic aura overflowed from it.
On top of the giant bat, a black-clothed youth with pitch-black eyes leaped. The bat suddenly transformed into a hunk and landed behind him.
Someone’s pupils violently shrank as he cried out in shock, “It’s Young Master Black Whirlwind from the Black Mountain Ridge!”
The moment he said that, a huge commotion broke out among the crowd, “What? Black Mountain Ridge? Could he be someone from the Black Mountain Ridge?”
After the spiritual energy recovery, many animals mutated into mutated beasts. Among them, there were some unique mutated beasts that evolved into Demon Kings.
In the eastern mountains, there was a Demon King that was comparable to an ancient almighty. It was said that this Demon King was a bat that had turned into an immortal. He claimed to be the Black Mountain Ridge Demon and ruled over many mutated beasts in the eastern mountains.
Even the six consortiums had to respect a Demon King who was comparable to an ancient almighty. They did not dare to offend him. After all, a Demon King could command a group of beasts, and his combat power was many times higher than theirs.
“Hehe…”
The youth in black heard every single word of their discussion and a mocking expression appeared on his face, “I never thought that you guys would know my name. What if I say that I have my eyes on this fruit?”
“We didn’t know that it’s Young Master Black Whirlwind who had descended. Please forgive us. Your father is a peerless Demon King of our country. How would we dare to fight with you over him?!”
Many shook their heads.
“At least you know your place!”
The black-clothed youth smiled with satisfaction. He turned around and said to the hunk behind him, “Uncle Ba, pick the mutant fruit!”
The man nodded slightly and slowly walked toward the Purple Embryo Fruit. The people around could only watch, not daring to move.
Right at that moment, a calm voice sounded, “Shouldn’t you ask for my permission before touching my thing?
