Chapter 618

Transformer

Mu Yu, refusing to believe such an omnipotent energy existed, attempted to leave the island and learnt his lesson the hard way. “Xiaoshuai, any ideas? As long as we can get off this island, be it singing, dancing, heck, swimming naked, is fine, too.”

“I can’t do anything about domains. Moreover, I don’t want to leave; Momo is waiting for me outside.”

“For crying out loud, having a Xiaoshuai Junior with Momo is a million times better than being stuck on this island for eternity!”

“I don’t like Momo! This is all your fault! You just had to insist on coming here! You getting stuck here is minor compared to Momo falling for me!”

“Why is it my fault if Momo falls for you? It’s your fault for seducing her. I explicitly asked you to fish an ordinary inkfiend ape.”

“I told you it’s impossible when you look as perfect as me!”

Fiend-Sealing Pagoda turned invisible as the horizon turned into an orange hue once again.

“Mu Yu, either you leave this island and give Momo a Mu Yu Junior or stay on this island for eternity,” suggested the dragon vine.

Mu Yu jumped to his feet. “I’m going with the third option! We’ve beat the dead multiple times already and even subdued yin corpses. Let’s go show them how a real skeleton soldier fights!”

“What form should we give our skeleton soldier?” asked Xiaoshuai, interested in the new activity.

“I thought you didn’t like playing with the dead? Well, you can choose its appearance, and I’ll help you create it using formations.”

“Now we’re talking! I also want to create a transformer!”

“A what?”

“I don’t know. That’s what they call gorillas, ostensibly.”

“Isn’t Momo’s lower half a gorilla?”

“Quit with the Momo this and Momo that!”

Mu Yu teleported to the boundary line to find the fiends taunting the humans, who were discussing what skeleton soldier to dispatch. While it might’ve been mistaken as a game to outsiders, the two races were dead serious about it, putting their pride on the line.

“Let’s go with a scorpion tail skeleton soldier? We stuck wings on yesterday, but we still loss,” recommended Bo Hong.

“In that case, a loss is nothing, or are you going to tell me you’ve never lost before?”

“At least I’ve never gone done without a fight!”

“A loss is a loss. All that talk, yet you’re an excuse making factory.”

“At l-”

“Enough!” shouted He Liankong. “If Mu Yu loses after three tries, you can have my soul item, okay?”

“Fine,” responded Gui Yuzi, flashing a sly smile as he took one last look at Mu Yu prior to departing.

“What is this ‘soul item’?” Mu Yu inquired.

He Liankong pulled Mu Yu aside and elucidated, “We usually use them to house our souls. I used to use a femur for mine. Thanks to the nourishment our souls receive all year round and the energy of Fiend-Sealing Pagoda, our potent soul energy in our soul items strengthens our souls.

“Every joint on skeleton soldiers’ main control component is made from soul items. In other words, a skeleton soldier controlled using soul items will be endowed with more dexterity. As an alchemist, our bones are tougher than others. For that reason, Gui Yuzi covets my soul item.”

“What happens if you lose yours?”

He Liankong heaved a heavy breath. “I will need to search for another one. A new one wouldn’t feel the same to me – if not be detrimental to my soul energy. If my soul energy dips too much, I will lose my leadership position.”

“Why are you gambling with something so important?”

“I should have faith in my junior, shouldn’t I?”

Mu Yu felt the chilly touch on his shoulder again.
