Chapter 388 - Mysterious Enemy, Powerful Sun Mo!

“Teacher, what are you thinking?”

Li Ziqi looked at Sun Mo, her eyes filled with admiration.

Teacher was so gentle. If it was someone else, they’d enjoy the exhilaration of killing a powerful foe. They wouldn’t think of something like ‘should I show mercy?’

“Oh, nothing!”

Sun Mo smiled in self-mockery. Why would someone as unlucky as him open a chest?

Was he thinking that he didn’t have enough dark soil?

Sun Mo dared assure that once this chest was opened, he’d feel so regretful that he would want to chop off his hands.

“What are you going to do now? Are you going to stay here?”

Li Ziqi assessed Jia Wendong.

Jia Wendong would definitely be a little sad that a teacher from his school had died. However, it’d be a lie to say that it was heart-wrenching.

After all, they hadn’t spent too much time together, nor were they in a teacher-disciple relationship.

“Young Miss, why are you showing him concern? Let’s attack together and kill him!”

Ma Qianzu started crying out again.

Jia Wendong turned and threw a glance at Sun Mo, struggling in his heart. A teacher from his school had been killed and he did hate Sun Mo. However, if he were to stay behind alone, it’d be over for him.

Having been around them for so long, Jia Wendong had to admit that Teacher Sun was really amazing.

If he wished to leave this predicament, he could only rely on him.

“We’ll be waiting for you over there. Go tidy up Teacher Zhen’s belongings.”

After saying that, Sun Mo threw a glance at Li Ziqi and Gu Xiuxun before leaving.

Jia Wendong, who had been hesitant, was first stunned for a moment after hearing this. His eyes then felt warm. This teacher was really considerate.

Wendong’s attitude had been horrible, but Sun Mo didn’t mind it at all and was even considerate toward him, not wanting him to feel bad. He was really…

Ding!

Favorable impression points from Jia Wendong +150, prestige connection initiated. Friendly (150/1,000).

Hearing the notification, the corners of Sun Mo’s lips curled up into a smile. At the very least, this guy still knew what gratitude was.

“Young Miss’s teacher, you’re really too good. Why would you care for a person like him? You should kill him, removing the very roots to prevent future threats.

Ma Qianzu spoke like someone who had been through this, sharing his experience.

“If you don’t shut up, I’ll remove you from the roots.”

Sun Mo frowned.

Even if Jia Wendong was Zhen Yuanxiong’s child, he wouldn’t kill him.

Ma Qianzu immediately covered his mouth with both hands, clamping his legs tightly together and groveling to the ground like a docile dog. However, he then cried out.

“I can smell the scent of living humans again!”

Ma Qianzu said this while twitching his nose excitedly, sniffing strongly in search of the scent of the enemy. (Haha, as expected, I’m really useful. With this, Young Miss won’t kill me, right?)

Ma Qianzu had no idea that both Sun Mo and Li Ziqi only had one thought in their mind when looking at him at this moment.

(Are you a freaking jinx? Can you stop smelling things?)

Although Sun Mo wasn’t afraid of battling, it’d be annoying if he had to continue to fight like this!

However, Ziqi really didn’t give the wrong name to this soul. Maybe Ma Qianzu’s spiritual form made him extremely sensitive toward living creatures’ aura.

After Sun Mo’s Wind King Divine Art had reached the grandmaster-grade, his six senses had become sharper. Despite this, he still hadn’t noticed the enemy’s arrival yet.

“Over here!”

Ma Qianzu called out and drifted warily along the wall. This would reduce the chances of him being exposed to danger.

“Teacher Gu, let’s go. Ziqi, bring Jia Wendong along.”

Sun Mo called out and then jumped up the roof, pressing down from a tall height.

His combination with Gu Xiuxun could basically crush many four-people teams.

“Teacher!”

Li Ziqi called out, and with a single thought, the White Tiger Guard under her immediately darted over to Jia Wendong’s side. She pulled the guy up the ride and then got the white tiger to jump up the roof, giving chase after Sun Mo.

“Don’t leave my side!”

Sun Mo said.

It was very dangerous up there, but he didn’t let Li Ziqi go down. He wanted to let the little sunny egg have a sense of nervousness prior to a battle.

Of course, this was also because Sun Mo was confident he could help the little sunny egg fend off all danger.

“They are below!”

After saying that, Sun Mo jumped over. When he landed, he exerted force in both legs.

Boom!

Sun Mo stomped through the ceiling and landed in the room.

Swoosh!

A sword shadow came shooting over at rapid speed, but just as it pierced in front of Sun Mo, it slighted. Then, a surprised voice rang out.

“Teacher Sun?”

After Gu Xiuxun said that, she quickly reminded, “Tantai, quickly bring the antidote!”

“It’s fine. It won’t kill!”

Tantai Yutang chuckled.

A faint red smoke was flowing in the room. It was the smoke produced by a specially concocted medicinal pill he had tossed out. It could cause hallucinations and affect one’s killing prowess.

After seeing that it was Gu Xiuxun in front of him, Sun Mo’s pupils contracted. (Why is it another masochist?) However, he then found the source to all his discomfort.

“Huh? Teacher Gu?”

Li Ziqi also jumped off from the white tiger, aiming her right hand at the ‘enemy’ and about to release Windwave Bullets to suppress them. She didn’t expect to see Gu Xiuxun.

“Come back! She’s an enemy!”

Sun Mo bellowed, and with a flash, retreated next to the Gu Xiuxun who had just come down from the broken ceiling.

Li Ziqi listened to Sun Mo’s words and retreated without any hesitation.

“Teacher Sun, what are you doing? Huh?”

That Gu Xiuxun who was in the room had no idea what was wrong with Sun Mo. However, when she saw the other Gu Xiuxun who had darted in from the ceiling, her eyes and mouth opened in astonishment.

“Another me?”

After a momentary puzzled feeling flashed by, Gu Xiuxun shouted out, “Sun Mo, come back quickly! She’s a fake!”

“Shut up, you’re the fake one!”

Sun Mo bellowed.

Tantai Yutang frowned and his gaze darted between the two Gu Xiuxuns.

Li Ziqi stood next to Sun Mo, her mind going into full action. She tried to recall everything they had been through and of Sun Mo’s behavior.

Putting Gu Xiuxun aside, the little sunny egg needed to ascertain that her teacher was the real one.

“Teacher Gu, do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?”

Sun Mo looked at Gu Xiuxun, his face filled with worry.

“No.”

Gu Xiuxun shook her head and looked at Sun Mo, feeling touched. “Thank you for believing me!”

“Of course I believe you. We’ve come all this way together. You are Gu Xiuxun. I won’t get it wrong.”

Sun Mo firmly believed.

“Sun…”

Gu Xiuxun wanted to say more but was suddenly hit in the back of her head.

Bang!

The Grand Universe Formless Divine Art’s clones had appeared behind this Gu Xiuxun long ago, swinging out the wooden blade. As Sun Mo was worried that the other party would hear the sound of the wind being cut through, in addition to him not wanting to kill the other party, he held back.

Gu Xiuxun stumbled from the hit and blood started to flow down her head.

Sun Mo gave chase and went all out.

Dotting Crimson Lip, Colors of Autumn, Colors of Autumn!

At the same instant the wooden blade struck out, Sun Mo let out a furious bellow!

Tai!

Buddha’s Mouth Serpent Heart!

This sound was resplendent like thunder in spring. Not only was Gu Xiuxun completely shaken, but golden waves also entangled around her body.

If one were to observe in detail, they’d be able to tell that these golden waves were many small golden snakes.

Pa pa pa!

The wooden blade hit Gu Xiuxun’s four limbs and the sound of breaking bones rang out.

Bang!

Gu Xiuxun fell to the ground and dust seethed up.

“Huh?”

Li Ziqi gasped in surprise. (Teacher, why did you move so quickly? What if you got the wrong person?)

The little sunny egg looked toward the other Gu Xiuxun. To speak the truth, not only the looks, height, and clothes, but even the composure and gaze weren’t much different at all.

For now, she was unable to discern between the real and the fake.

“Teacher, you’re too harsh. If I didn’t guess wrongly, the two of you should have been together earlier, right? To be making a move so suddenly, aren’t you being too ruthless?”

Tantai Yutang teased.

Sun Mo activated his Divine Sight and observed the Gu Xiuxun who had been beaten up into a mushy pule.

Gu Xiuxun, unknown lifeform!

Sun Mo turned and looked toward the other one.

Gu Xiuxun, 21 years old, graduated from the Myriad Daos Academy.

Densely-packed data flashed out below, especially the note on how she was a masochist. Sun Mo felt at ease.

“Teacher Gu, there’s no need to worry, I’m the real one!”

Sun Mo saw Gu Xiuxun staring at him warily and didn’t come over, thus he explained.

“I’m the one who is real, you fool!”

The seriously injured Gu Xiuxun bellowed.

“What… what is going on? Are you guys twins?”

Jia Wendong was stunned. (What on earth did I just see?)

The Gu Xiuxun who was next to Tantai Yutang didn’t come over nor say a word.

“Alright, stop shouting. Did you see that? This is what Teacher Gu should be doing. You, a copy, aren’t doing it right!

Sun Mo teased.

The seriously injured Gu Xiuxun stopped shouting. Instead, she took in a deep breath and looked toward Sun Mo, her face filled with curiosity. “When did you realize that I’m a fake?”

If Sun Mo didn’t notice this from very long ago, Sun Mo wouldn’t have made a move so decisively.

“At the instant I saw the real Teacher Gu!”

Sun Mo shrugged.

“You let out an explosive bellow, calling her a fake and rapidly returning to my side. You said that you trust me, but you’re actually trying to launch a sneak attack at me, right?”

The copy Gu Xiuxun asked.

“Yes!”

Sun Mo chuckled. “In order to get you off guard, I even took the risk to let Ziqi come over as well.”

“Alright, then what’s the reason? It can’t be that you used your senses to discern the real from the fake, right?

The copy Gu Xiuxun was curious.

“Four reasons!”

Sun Mo put up four fingers.

“Huh? Four? Are you kidding?”

The copy Gu Xiuxun’s face sank. (I’ve assassinated countless people using this move. How could I have so many flaws?)

“Firstly, Teacher Gu is very outstanding. Given how wary and serious she is, she’d definitely study the information of Mingshao’s student group in detail. Therefore, there was no way that she wouldn’t know Jia Wendong’s name. However, you didn’t know.”

Sun Mo explained and looked toward Li Ziqi.

Even the little sunny egg knew Jia Wendong’s name.

“Go on!”

The copy Gu Xiuxun admitted that this was a flaw.

“Teacher Gu is a very proud lady and is very eager to excel. She doesn’t ever admit that she is worse off than men. Therefore, in the situation similar to when going up against Zhen Yuanxiong earlier, she’d definitely want to be the one fighting, but you didn’t!”

“No matter what reason you give, your greatest flaw is that you didn’t make a move!”

This was where Sun Mo felt awkward about.

He was considered to have spent quite a bit of time with the masochist, and the two of them got along pretty well together. Therefore, they were unconsciously influenced and had gotten used to each other’s way of doing things.

This was like a good pair of friends went out for a meal together, with one of them suddenly changing their habit and ordering a dish that they usually didn’t eat.

If it was a simple-minded person, they might not notice it, but it wasn’t the same for Sun Mo. He was too meticulous. Of course, he didn’t think that Gu Xiuxun was fake at that time. He just felt that something was off.

“Why should I help you to defeat enemies?”

The copy Gu Xiuxun pouted.

On the other side, when Gu Xiuxun heard this explanation, a hint of flush suddenly dyed her beautiful cheeks.

(So this is how I am like in Teacher Sun’s heart?)

“Teacher Gu, my Teacher’s impression of you is very good. Does he like you?”

Tantai Yutang asked in a soft voice.

Pa!

Gu Xiuxun knocked Tantai Yutang’s head. “Don’t talk gibberish!”

However, the masochist’s heart was throbbing a little. After all, Sun Mo was a talented genius who was more amazing than she was. His words clearly showed his recognition of her.

“What’s the third then? Let me see if it’s valid!”

The copy Gu Xiuxun urged.

“Teacher Gu’s heart is very gentle. When I killed Zhen Yuanxiong back then, my mood wasn’t good. Given Teacher Gu’s character, she’d definitely console me, but you didn’t.”

Sun Mo’s mouth twitched.

“Ssss, you killed Zhen Yuanxiong? The one from the Black-White Academy?”

Gu Xiuxun gasped. However, she then felt that she was making a fuss for nothing. Sun Mo was at the seventh level of the blood-ignition realm. Other than Ming Xian and Beitang Ziwei, no other teachers were a match for him.

“Teacher Gu, this is just normal!”

Li Ziqi felt equally proud.

“What’s the fourth?”

The copy Gu Xiuxun continued to ask.

“Hehe!”

Sun Mo smiled, not explaining because this wasn’t something that could be said.

The answer was that he had shown such an exciting performance, but the copy didn’t contribute a single favorable impression point at all.

Of course, Sun Mo only reacted to this after he broke through the ceiling and saw the real Gu Xiuxun. This was why he did what he did.

“Amazing!”

“Amazing!”

“Really amazing!”

The copy Gu Xiuxun stared at Sun Mo, its eyes filled with surprise. “You’re really too perfect. I like your intellect and also your reactions during contingencies. After realizing that I’m a fake, not only weren’t you not anxious, but you even played along and launched a sneak attack at me.

“The reason you did this is to catch me alive and interrogate me for information, right?”

Before Sun Mo replied, the copy Gu Xiuxun smiled. “I have to tell you regretfully that it’s impossible.”

Sun Mo frowned. This was what he was thinking.

At the next instant, the copy Gu Xiuxun’s head exploded with a bang.

Brain juice and skull bones splattered everywhere.

“Come on, I’ll be waiting for you. It’s been very long since I’ve seen such an interesting toy.”

A voice gradually dissipated.

“Teacher is so amazing!”

After seeing Sun Mo crushing that mysterious enemy, Li Ziqi’s small face was filled with admiration. She couldn’t help but move closer to Sun Mo, secretly taking in a breath.

(En, Teacher’s scent smells good as well. It’s the smell of victory.)

Ding!

Favorable impression points from Li Ziqi +1,000. Reverence (16,161/100,000).

When Jia Wendong saw Li Ziqi’s expression, he suddenly felt dejected. However, he had to admit that this teacher was very strong.

He wasn’t just strong physically but also mentally.

No matter who he encountered, he always wore a calm expression.

Ding!

Favorable impression points from Jia Wendong +100. Friendly (250/1,000).

“Teacher Gu, I’m very happy to see you!”

Sun Mo waved his hand. He then noticed that Gu Xiuxun was staring at him warily.

“How are you going to prove that you’re not a fake Sun Mo?”

Gu Xiuxun questioned. (I’m very touched by your assessment of me earlier. But I’m sorry, it’s useless. I still have to ascertain if you’re real.)
