Chapter 139: Chapter 140: The Seemingly Impressive Little Monk
Translator: 549690339
Ouyang Wushuang became even more certain of her thought, Li Xiaobai was absolutely a hidden big shot.
The pet by her side casually threw out a shoe, and it just happened to land in the direction of the previous group’s escape.
Such an impulsive action being linked to good fortune was definitive proof that he was a big shot.
Li Xiaobai, however, was unaware of her thoughts and simply floored the accelerator, charging straight ahead.
Watching the rocks and trees in front of them being smashed to bits, Ouyang Shuanger was stunned like a wooden chicken. It was her first time witnessing such brute force; several times, demonic beasts tried to face off, only to be crushed by the large truck.
This power was practically a war machine.
Several figures desperately fleeing appeared on the road ahead, jumping up and down in the jungle and frequently looking back in panic.
“Brother Yi, that behemoth is catching up!”
“Damn it, that damn woman is useless, can’t even buy us some time!”
Cries could be heard, and Li Xiaobai realized they must be the ones who had poisoned Ouyang Shuanger earlier.
“What do you say?” Li Xiaobai asked.
“Young Master Li, these men are disciples of the Xingtian Sect from Central Province, which is on friendly terms with my Zhenyuan Country. They dared to poison me during our joint travel and sought to disgrace me.”
“However, these three are all disciples from Central Province; it wouldn’t be convenient for you to offend them, Young Master, so perhaps we should just pretend we never saw them.”
Ouyang Wushuang spoke with sincerity, her words deeply affecting.
Li Xiaobai shook his head slightly, this young lady still hadn’t grasped the reality. He was no fool; the strategies of goading and playing the pity card were ineffective against him.
“Alright, then I’ll just pretend I didn’t see them.”
Li Xiaobai smiled understandingly and continued to drive ahead, neither hastening nor delaying.
Ouyang Wushuang was stunned once again; the situation was unfolding differently from what she had imagined. She had been so considerate on his behalf, shouldn’t Li Xiaobai be overwhelmingly grateful and go on to angrily kill the three men?
Pretend not to see? What kind of nonsense is that?
Doesn’t he know that you should always take a woman’s words with a grain of salt?
Seeing that the truck was about to catch up to the three men, if she hesitated any longer, they might truly miss the chance.
So, she bit her lip, “Young Master Li, I implore you to take action and kill these three men. In return, Ouyang Wushuang will be greatly thankful!”
“How thankful?”
“Ten thousand superior-grade Spirit Stones!”
“Deal!”
Li Xiaobai’s eyes lit up. The little rich lady had finally come to her senses, starting the bargain with ten thousand superior-grade Spirit Stones. It was his first time meeting such a generous boss; this bode well for many cooperative opportunities in the future.
Ouyang Wushuang was speechless; Li Xiaobai’s greediness baffled her. Was he a carefree senior expert or a brilliant young talent from a great power? He was truly hard to fathom.
She definitely needed to investigate this person thoroughly later!
The truck was now level with the three men, and their heavy breathing could vaguely be heard.
Li Xiaobai purposely kept the truck just behind them, starting to honk the horn constantly. The sound pierced the heavens, scaring the three men out of their wits and making them run even more frantically.
“Brother Yi, what kind of demonic beast is this, and why is it so terrifying?”
“Indeed, I’ve been in Central Province for years; how come I’ve never heard of it before?”
“Xiao Wang, Xiao Ba, come closer. I’ll tell you the weakness of this beast. We need to stand united if we want to live!” Huang Yi said, a fiendish look flashing in his eyes.
The other two men, without doubt, moved closer to Huang Yi.
“Brother Yi, what’s the weakness of this beast?”
“Well, the weakness is that it stops when it hears the sound of eating!”
“`
Huang Yi’s figure flickered, and he suddenly activated his cultivation technique. With a horizontal sweep of his longsword, he struck both men toward the location of the truck.
“Brother Yi, you…”
“Sorry, brothers, better that two die than all three of us. Once I’m out, Brother Yi will avenge you!”
Huang Yi lightly tapped his toes and surged forward even more rapidly.
The two men, mid-sentence, slammed directly into the windshield. They couldn’t even let out a wail before they were smashed to pieces by the front of the truck.
Watching the blood mist before her, Ouyang Shuanger shivered, her face pale.
The only bloody scene she had seen in her life was the assassination of a man, pierced through the chest and dead.
When had she ever witnessed such a gory spectacle?
The violent impact obliterated a living person, leaving behind only dense clouds of blood mist and severed limbs and broken arms to prove their existence.
For Li Xiaobai, such scenes were all too common, and he had grown accustomed to them.
[Attribute Point +100…]
These two must have been at the Golden Core Stage, not having reached the Nascent Soul Stage.
That Huang Yi fleeing ahead seems quite fast; his cultivation level must be deeper. I wonder how many attribute points I could gain from killing him.
He floored the accelerator, charging straight towards Huang Yi.
In that instant, Huang Yi was scared out of his wits. He hadn’t expected the two decoys he threw to buy him not even a breath’s time. It seemed the Steel Behemoth was hell-bent on killing him!
“Amitabha, benefactor, saving a life is more meritorious than building a seven-level pagoda; please spare him,” came a Buddhist chant, soft yet resounding through the woods.
A golden Buddha materialized in the void, eyes closed and head bowed, brow slightly furrowed as if pondering something. A gigantic golden hand spanned across the sky, slowly reaching out to stop the heavy truck.
“It’s the baldy, the baldy!” Ergouzi said with an excited face, leaning over the window and staring in one direction.
Li Xiaobai followed his gaze. On a distant hillside, there stood a young Buddhist monk in grey robes. He seemed young, but his cultivation was profound; likely a genius of the Buddhist Sect.
However, this didn’t concern him. Killing Huang Yi would yield ten thousand Spirit Stones; a surefire profitable deal.
“Master, save me!”
Huang Yi’s face brightened with joy, as if seeing a glimmer of hope. His figure twisted, soaring toward the hill where the monk was.
But at that moment, the heavy truck behind him also turned sharply, drifting elegantly and crashing hard into his body.
[Attribute Point +300…]
Cracking and crunching sounds were unceasing.
“Puh!”
Huang Yi’s chest cavity burst open, blood spraying out in sheets like rain, his body falling powerlessly to the ground.
At the same time, the golden hand that had attempted to stop the truck shattered upon the impact.
[Attribute Point +1100…]
These were the attribute points offered by a prodigy.
The young monk on the hillside was shocked, a tidal wave of emotions surging in his heart. Someone had effortlessly neutralized his intervention and even killed the man in the process.
This was certainly a genius from a powerful faction. With such a killer instinct, he would likely bring nothing but disaster!
“Benefactor, to be forgiving when one can be is a virtue. Why insist on being so utterly ruthless?”
The young monk, with a pained face, slowly descended the hill, stepping across tens of meters at a time, and in an instant, he was close to the truck.
Li Xiaobai’s pupils constricted. This was Shrinking Earth into Inches – the monk before him was not ordinary!
