Chapter 249

Return of a Fiend King

Xing Gao and Zuo Jianfeng consumed qi defence pills, a common low-rank healing pill. Despite consuming several pills, they couldn’t staunch their bleeding. Mu Yu could smell skeleton scabs, a plant that inhibited healing via spiritual energy. The assailant had done some extra work. Fortunately, Mu Yu had a fix. He offered a vial. “Your qi defence pills won’t help. This is healing powder, my own concoction. Apply some to your wound, and your wounds will soon close.”

“I thought you’re an alchemist. Powders? You expect me to believe it works?” jabbered Zuo Jianfeng.

Xing Gao questioned, “I bought the qi defence pills from your sect. Is there a difference between the two products?”

“Qi defence pills are low-rank pills that are effective if treating ordinary wounds. Your wound has been infected with poison, however.” Mu Yu shook the vial. “Want to give it a try?”

“I shall trust you.” Xing Gao stretched his left arm out.

The purple powder stimulated the production of potent green spiritual energy on Xing Gao’s arm. The spiritual energy stopped the bleeding and sealed the wound, stiffening Zuo Jiangfeng’s face at the same time.

“Thank you, Brother Mu Yu,” Xing Gao expressed, mobilising his left arm.Updated from n0velb(i)n.c(o)/m

“You can keep it. Your condor will probably appreciate it, as well,” said Mu Yu, putting the vial in Xing Gao’s hand.

“You two should also keep some on you.” Mu Yu offered the two maidens, whom he presumed suffered less thanks to the two guys, another two vials.

“Thank you,” sincerely expressed Meng Xin, smiling. On the other hand, Rou Anna scoffed.

“Anyone else want one?” teased Mu Yu, waving another vial around. Since Zuo Jianfeng refused to swallow his pride, Mu Yu passed it to Xing Gao. “You can have another one.”

“Whoever it was, it won’t change the fact the white ape fiend king’s return will spell disaster for the entire world. We can’t let him return to Third Heaven!” asserted Zuo Jianfeng.

The mountain quaked again. The formation cracked, forcing everyone to fly up. Rocks began to rain down, but there was no echo. It was as if they were falling down a bottomless pit. The lights eventually completely faded.

“You’re all finished now, hahahaha! I’m back!”

The white ape fiend king propelled himself into the sky. Lightning began to stir behind the clouds. Boom! The formation was devastated in a single second. Five menacing balls of lightning blasted the fiend king, yet the fiend king laughed hysterically and punched them apart.

“Hahaha, yes!”

“I don’t think we could beat him even without his core,” Xiaoshuai commented, regretting his provocations.

“Xiaoshuai, you were spinning when lightning struck you. He’s tougher than you are,” Mu Yu murmured.

“That’s an unfair comparison. He’s punching the lightning, while the lightning hit me!” Xiaoshuai hid back inside Mu Yu’s shirt.

“Human runts, it’s your turn!”

The white fiend ape king swung his fist down at the group.

“Bolt!”

With a single smash, the mountain shook until it gave out and collapsed!
