Chapter 382: Lan Ying
The cub howled and bit on the shadows thigh.
Who? What?
Ye Xiaolu jumped awake.
The shadow was on the ground, still.
A night ofpressing True Bomb hadnt gone to waste. It caught the shadow square in the chest. The body was now a mangled mess, his chest actually touching his back.
The True Bomb had great power, but focused in a tight space. It was what allowed this move to disintegrate anything.
Li Mo took the shadows mask.
What greeted him was a perfect face, fair skin and of sublime features worthy of the teen idol title on Earth.
He had four limbs, humanoid, but had a devils tail behind him.
Hes a Devil? Ye Xiaolu cried.
Li Mo nodded.
W-why did he attack us?
Ye Xiaolu still looked like a Goddess and couldnt make sense why the Devils would target them.
Whoosh~
Li Mo took out God Prison, having it release chains to tie the assassin.
Why are you doing that for when hes dead as a doornail?
Who said hes dead?
No one from the ten strong races is weak. The Devils arent just good with Soul Hex Technique, but also have five thousand, and some, top cultivation methods.
That many? Ye Xiaolu said.
From their targets! Ye Xiaolu eximed.
Li Mo nodded.
The past Li Mo got half of the thousands of cultivation methods he gathered courtesy of the Devils. He only grabbed two of them and yet obtained three thousand cultivation methods.
Whoosh~
As they talked, the Devils mangled corpse shot out two traces of ck smoke, from left and right.
Li Mo was ready, easily trapping them in his hands.
He then put his hands together and the smoke wailed.
Whats that? Ye Xiaolu jerked in fright.
Devils are experts in Soul Hex Technique. And that is only because of their strong soul.
Who are you? How do you know our secret? The ck smoke shouted.
The smoke roiled between Li Mos palms. But seeing it useless, it gave up.
The smoke was the assassins soul.
Li Mo aside, Devils were the number one race who knew the most cultivation methods in the universe.
Shedding ones body, possessing another, these were skills every Devil knew.
Li Mo said, Speak! Whats your purpose?
You wont get anything from me.
Li Mo poked and the smoke wailed. The volume shrank a bit.
Soul-crushing Finger! How do you know our arts?
Im asking the questions.
Li Mo poked again and the smoke wailed.
Ill talk, Ill talk! Nine-headed race and the Celestial Fire race have pooled their bounty. I only came after you for money!
Ye Xiaolu said, Why have the two races put a price on us?
You robbed God Huos Divine Footwork and killed Nine-headed races third crown prince. Of course theyd send someone after you!
S***, just how did you know who we are? Ye Xiaolu asked.
The smoke was silent
Another poke got him talking, though.
Ill talk! I have the Spirit Eye that lets me see through lies. You can change your looks, but the Spirit Eye will see your true faces!
Ye Xiaolu eximed. She now held Li Mo in worship.
No wonder you made a spirit bomb.
Li Mo shook his head, I did it just in case. While the chance for Devils to get the Spirit Eye is the same as humans getting the Emulsion Spirit Body.
Youre correct. I am known to be the only Spirit Eye user of my race!
Does anyone else know of us then?
Yes, I reported to princess Lan before, giving her your soul scent as well
What does that mean?
Ye Xiaolu asked Li Mo this time.
Soul Scent is a mystical art that any who has it will know who we are even if we change our looks or theyck the Spirit Eye.
S***, this bastard!
Ye Xiaolu punched the smoke, almost annihting him. She had Emulsion Spirit Body. Even without Soul-crushing Finger she could harm souls.
Youre the Emulsion Spirit Body! Its actually real! Oh, god! It hurts~! I dont wanna die, Ill tell you anything you want!
Whats this guys level?
Eight.
So strong yet so spineless?
Few Devils are tough.
The past Li Mo fought Devils for centuries and knew them like the back of his hand.
Hand over all your arts!
Li Mo pressed his palms closer together.
You dare refine a Devils soul Ahhh~
The ck smokes shock got cut off by its wail.
Fortune of Heaven and Earth Art suppressed all cultivation methods besides those imperial ones. As long as the target was no God Emperor and they were close in levels, the target would be suffering.
Lan Feng, peak eight level from the Shadow Guild.
Youre not lying, are you?
Li Mo extracted the smokes memories as he poked around.
Im not. I really am princess Lans subordinate. But something had me separate from my ninerades, ending up on Ancient! The ck smoke shrieked.
You took our Soul Scent but you didnt hand it over to princess Lan, but to your Shadow Guilds boss, the ninth level Lan Ying, right?
Whats the point of lying when you can see my memories? The smoke cried.
Make sure you remember that.
Lan Feng took little time to squeeze out all of Lan Fengs memories.
Only then Li Mo eased a breath.
Lan Ying was a typical Devil, but wasnt considered one. He followed a Devil woman called Lan Ying who established the assassin organization Shadow Guild on Ancient, epting assassination missions.
Shadow Guild had ten Devils. But what theycked in numbers, they made up in strength.
I told you everything. Let me go Lan Fengs soul was now weak after the extraction.
When did we make that arrangement?
Eh?
Li Mo poked again and Lan Fengs soul scattered in the wind.
