Spirit Master Girl: Contracting with an SSS-Level School Beauty at the Start-Chapter 116: I... Didn’t See It

"Kid, your task is the Demon Beast, not the Holy Spring Crystal!"

"I advise you to stop chasing. Since you’re with the Federation Government, I don’t want to make a move on you. If you keep coming after me, I won’t be polite anymore!"

Though his words were courteous, Xiao Zhan wouldn’t heed his threat.

Let alone the Holy Spring Crystal being a huge opportunity, even as dual SSS-grade, he and Ye Youlong needed this item.

Just by taking the incident of him using the Spirit Pattern White Ape to massacre villagers alone, it was enough for the Federation to sentence him to death.

For his own selfish gains, disregarding human lives!

So Xiao Zhan’s response was only the icy chill of the Death Aura released by the Death Demon Scythe.

Da Shan knew the battle was inevitable.

There was a flash of bloodlust in the depths of his eyes, and then, with a fierce turn, he smashed his fist towards Xiao Zhan.

"Kid, why risk your life for a mere few hundred bucks a month salary?"

Xiao Zhan sneered coldly, "The moment you turned around, the one risking his life was you!"

As his words fell, a burst of Death Aura surged out, enveloping Da Shan within it. At less than ten meters’ distance, there was no way to avoid it.

Yet Da Shan was not at all panicked, even beneath his mask, in the midst of the Death Aura, he could still clearly see Xiao Zhan’s movements!

"Left."

Da Shan let out a chilling smile, and only when Xiao Zhan got close did he fiercely counter with a swing of his fist.

Seeing his decisive actions, Xiao Zhan immediately knew that the Death Aura was not very effective on him. But he didn’t choose to dodge; instead, he faced him head-on!

At Third Grade Realm, Xiao Zhan wasn’t afraid of anyone.

The collision between the scythe and the fist immediately exploded with immense power, causing the surrounding Death Aura to scatter with the two at the center!

After the strike, Da Shan staggered back several steps, looking at Xiao Zhan with a surprised expression.

How could this kid be so strong?

And Xiao Zhan, with a flick of the Demon Scythe to shake off the remaining force, coldly smiled as he looked at Da Shan, without moving an inch himself.

Pathetic.

Not on the same level.

Xiao Zhan then stepped forward, not giving him time to react, and burst out. Swinging the Demon Scythe in his hand, he slashed towards him mercilessly.

Da Shan dared not be careless at this moment. Although Xiao Zhan was Second Grade, from their initial engagement, he already knew Xiao Zhan’s strength.

Indeed, none of those who joined the Special Service Bureau were to be trifled with!

However, with that settled, he also opted for a quick resolution.

Determination flashed in his eyes as he activated his Spirit Manipulation Energy Power, and then his face mask emitted a strange glow.

The light was primarily black, with streaks of gold mixed within.

The light didn’t radiate outwards but formed a vortex in front of him, around three to four meters wide, shielding his entire body behind it.

Seeing this vortex, Xiao Zhan suddenly felt as if his head was losing balance, spinning along with it.

"A psychic skill?"

Xiao Zhan closed his eyes immediately, and sure enough, his mind instantly cleared up.

Most psychic skills worked through the eyes and then affected the brain. There were few that directly targeted the brain; even Xiao Zhan’s Death Gaze needed to pass through the enemy’s eyes to cause damage.

So, as long as his eyes were closed, the skill instantly lost its effect.

Da Shan stood behind the vortex, surprised to see Xiao Zhan finding the countermeasure so quickly.

Previously, when he used this move, it was invincible, directly causing people to get dizzy and vomit, begging to be steadied on their path.

But on Xiao Zhan, it unexpectedly failed.

However, surprised as he was, his movements were not a bit delayed.

The moment Xiao Zhan closed his eyes, he immediately rushed out.

This was the unpredictable aspect of his Spirit Manipulation Technique; open your eyes, and you’d be dazed. Close your eyes, lose your vision, and then he’d ambush you.

In the past, when he used this technique, it was extremely effective; if it didn’t make you throw up from dizziness, he’d make you throw up from a beating!

So, this punch, he aimed directly at Xiao Zhan’s vulnerability!

Little did he know, all his moves were clearly presented in Xiao Zhan’s mind.

Eyes?

He wasn’t a Sword Saint; it wasn’t just eyes that allowed clear sight.

He is the Blind Monk!

He can see through all of this.

Therefore, facing Da Shan’s punch that aims straight for the vitals, Xiao Zhan pretends to be completely unaware, drawing him in close.

Sure enough, Da Shan would not expect Xiao Zhan to possess such ability.

He focused all his attention on that punch, without the slightest guard.

As they got closer, the punch was about to hit Xiao Zhan.

At that moment, Xiao Zhan finally moved; his figure slightly twisted, evading the powerful punch with the least torque.

Da Shan’s aggressive fist whiffed through the air, and a look of doubt instantly magnified in his pupils!

Xiao Zhan actually dodged it?

Was it an accident?

Or something else?

He didn’t have time to think, because in the next second, he felt a chill approaching him; it was Xiao Zhan’s Demon Scythe!

The Demon Scythe spun, whistling sharply, slashing straight at his head.

It was a seamless action, done in one fell swoop.

Clearly, it was a well-prepared guillotine!

He had fallen into a trap!

Da Shan broke into a cold sweat, his soul chilling, but he was unable to make any reactive move.

The old strength was gone, and new strength had yet to emerge.

He was now like a lamb to the slaughter, awaiting the baptism of death!

Whoosh!

The scythe swept past, and without any surprise, Da Shan’s head was relocated, along with the attacking arm, sliced off together and falling to the ground.

This is the confrontation between experts; rarely was there a back and forth. Just a fleeting opportunity could lead to instant annihilation!

Moreover, Xiao Zhan was wielding the Demon Scythe.

While Da Shan had only his fists.

They were not at the same level at all.

Thump.

Da Shan’s body thumped and fell to the ground, blood pouring from his neck, quickly soiling the area.

Xiao Zhan kicked him over and began to search his body.

Before long, a blood-red stone and a blue scale appeared in his hands.

They were the Ghost Blood Eye and Holy Spring Crystal.

But when he touched these two items, Xiao Zhan suddenly closed his eyes and did not look at them.

"Wife, come see if these are the two items," Xiao Zhan called for Ye Youlong to confirm.

Although he was pretty sure himself.

Ye Youlong was a bit confused, "Why don’t you just open your eyes?"

"I have my reasons; just check if they’re the right ones."

"Yes."

"Then that’s fine."

Xiao Zhan tossed the two items into the Dimension Space.

Only then did he open his eyes.

Ye Youlong, utterly baffled, couldn’t help but ask, "Why didn’t you just look at the Ghost Blood Eye and Holy Spring Crystal yourself?"

"Ghost Blood Eye and Holy Spring Crystal? What are you talking about, wife? Where are the Ghost Blood Eye and Holy Spring Crystal?" Xiao Zhan suddenly wore an innocent look of confusion.

His eyes were clear, even containing a bit of curiosity.

Ye Youlong was puzzled, "They were just now in your..."

"I don’t know what you’re talking about; I didn’t see anything, I didn’t see any Ghost Blood Eye, nor did I see any Holy Spring Crystal."

Xiao Zhan blinked with oblivious eyes, innocent and clear.

"Wife, did you see the Holy Spring Crystal?"

Ye Youlong: "I... didn’t see it."
