Cannon-Fodder Heiress Turns the Tables by Fortune-Telling-Chapter 878 - 876: Evil Cultivator? Bah, I Cultivate Everything! (2 Updates)
It’s said that when masters face off, just one move can predict the outcome.
The current situation perfectly illustrates the truth of this statement.
With He Tu’s first move, those three on the opposite side knew clearly that they were no match for the person before them.
A hint of bitter smile flashed in their eyes, followed by determination.
Before coming here, they were prepared to die, whether by disobeying orders and being killed by their lord, or dying at the hands of the opponent.
But even if they were to die, they wouldn’t let the opponent off easily; they were determined to exact a bloody price from them.
He Tu observed as the expressions on their faces changed, a cold smile appeared on his own.
He couldn’t deal with the likes of Yun Ran and Rong Gu at the demon level, but surely he could handle these people. Did they really think he was a pushover?
Dreaming of gaining anything from him, utterly wishful thinking.
The three on the opposite side unleashed their best techniques, attacking He Tu from three different angles in a coordinated siege.
In response, He Tu delivered a palm strike to each one, while simultaneously stabbing them with the Magic Artifact in his hand.
The three Xuanmen people, who had promising futures, were rendered immobile, and at once, they looked at their own bodies.
A massive wound appeared on their stomachs, blood flowed profusely and wouldn’t stop.
It was more horrifying as He Tu’s Magic Artifact was absorbing their blood.
This technique was clearly the means of an Evil Cultivator.
"You... you’re... an Evil Cultivator..."
As soon as one of them uttered this, his head slumped downwards, not even getting the chance to hear He Tu’s answer.
He Tu, seeing his Magic Artifact saturated with blood, then kicked the now useless bodies over.
"Evil Cultivator? Bah, I cultivate everything!"
These words weren’t just boastful; for him, anything that could increase his abilities and suited his Magic was good, there was no such thing as Evil Cultivator or Righteous Path.
Anyway, when he robbed others, he never discriminated; as long as they were weaker, he had no mercy.
After dealing with the three.
He Tu swung his Magic Artifact, which had been somewhat dull, but after absorbing those people’s blood, it brightened a bit.
Only then did he satisfactorily keep the Magic Artifact away, proving that killing those with some cultivation did indeed provide superior nourishment.
He Tu kicked the bodies of those three back into the bushes from before.
Then he jumped back onto the large stone he’d been lying on, casually glancing in the direction of Death Mountain.
Talking to himself, he said: "I hope that ruthless girl survives, it’d be even better if she dealt with Rong Gu."
One significant reason he came here to help was because Gu Yuan told him Rong Gu came this way.
Those he killed earlier were in cahoots with Rong Gu.
He Tu found this intolerable; he held grudges fiercely. Rong Gu injured him in the past, and now she wanted help? Dream on!
Just after finishing these murmurs, He Tu lay down again; he was getting old, and moving around a bit tired him.
In other small paths, He Tu’s makeshift friends promptly took care of their targets.
In short, attempting to reach the secret passage they guarded was utterly impossible.
At this moment, the group from the Special Administration Bureau guarding the passageway were completely unaware they had once again avoided a fierce assault.
The leader continued directing those transporting large rocks.
While guarding here, they weren’t idle; they transported numerous stones to seal off the entrance.
Of course, the sealing left plenty of ventilation openings.
Should anyone manage to reach here smoothly, not only would they face an obstruction, but also boulders blocking the way, hindering them for quite a while.
"Boss, we’ve sealed nearly ten meters now, almost at the entrance."
The leader nodded and handed over the remaining precious Enhancement Talisman and Wind Gathering Talisman.
"Stick this talisman paper on, and the sealed passage won’t lack air."
"Yes, boss, I’ll do it right away!"
Death Mountain central area.
The Horned Snake had thoroughly searched its surroundings multiple times and had crossed paths with the Black Panther several times, eerily encountering not a single Great Demon.
Clearly, something was amiss, but it couldn’t pinpoint what.
Thinking about that wooden lord, the Horned Snake dismissed its laziness.
It twisted its body, heading to meet the Black Panther.
It wasn’t seeking reconciliation, merely a temporary, technical discussion.
Because they say, the one who understands an adversary best is always its enemy.
The Horned Snake soon found the Black Panther, observing its gaze lacked the former fierceness of territorial contention.
This nearly made the Horned Snake burst out laughing, seeming it wasn’t the only one gaining nothing.
The Horned Snake’s mindset was thoroughly calm, nothing felt better than having a rival by one’s side when down on luck.
[Did you find anything?]
Without humans around, they communicated directly with thoughts rather than words.
The Black Panther, although no longer as ferocious as before, still remained aloof seeing the Horned Snake.
[None of your business!]
[Oh, how can it be irrelevant? You may have forgotten the lord’s command, but I haven’t!]
Now the Horned Snake couldn’t help but brag a bit, trying to show off.
This greatly annoyed the Black Panther, but thinking about that lord...
If their grudges delayed the lord’s command, neither would benefit.
The Black Panther then unwillingly glanced at the Horned Snake.
[There is a presence of other kin here, quite dense and chaotic, indicating a lot of Great Demons were here before.
But now, with only the presence remaining, those Great Demons have vanished, I haven’t found any useful clues, what about you?]
Horned Snake: ...
It knew the Black Panther was indeed cunning, having discovered all this crucial information.
Nevertheless, it wasn’t bad either, finding some important news.
[I haven’t found any Great Demon, but I discovered a peculiar patch of flora there.
They’re certainly of Demon Plant Level, yet remain in the most primitive, also lowest state, unsure what to trigger them.]
This discovery was made after devouring a grass fruit earlier.
The sudden roar of thunder, "Rumble", shocked the Horned Snake and Black Panther, who had only heard thunder for the second time in hundreds of years, causing their bodies to tense.
On closer inspection, the Black Panther’s legs were visibly trembling.
