Chapter 304 - Who Touched My Horse
Chapter 304: Who Touched My Horse
After discovering the strange talent of the Incubus Beast, Chen Rui was suddenly very interested. After hearing its longing for the fruit via [Analytical Eyes], he originally wanted to use the “fruit” as a bait to catch it. However, when he got the bunch of fruit, he was surprised that this bunch of fruits exuded a faint aura. It was like the devil pomeg fruit that he got in Town Leia!
Therefore, the following tragic story of the abduction of a kind little black horse unfolded.
Without Kanita’s hunt which showed the strong contrast of “treatment”, and without its demand for “fruits” due to its stamina exhaustion, the content of this story might turn into a kind little black horse fighting bravely to get rid of human trafficker… Uhm, horse trafficker abduction. However, this happened coincidentally. The little black horse had already deemed Chen Rui as a good guy.
At this moment, the dog barking in the woods across the stream caused the Incubus Beast to be vigilant. It stomped its hoofs unsteadily, “Enemy! Enemy!”
The man’s kind voice sounded in his head, “Don’t be afraid, just watch me beat them away.”
Sure enough, a group of people led by Kanita came out of the woods. They also brought a few cerberus. Obviously, they found the Incubus Beast by following its blood and breath.
Chen Rui knew that his successful abduction was contributed by Kanita and the others as well. Thus, it was time for him to “pay back” now.
The first sentence of his “gratefulness” was, “Who touched my horse?”
Kanita was taken aback for a while. He saw that the Incubus Beast stayed quietly at the side of this person, and it didn’t run away. It really seemed like that was the case.
The Incubus Beast has a master? So what?
This man seems to be just the strength of Higher Demon. I can easily kill him with anyone from my side. I really don’t understand why the Incubus Beast would recognize this weak person as its master? Or this guy doesn’t even know that this horse is the strongest ground demonic beast mount?
Kanita sneered. Fontein on the side didn’t play along to ask, “Why is the master laughing?” Instead, he jumped out arrogantly and shouted, “This is Sir Kanita, the controller of Town Moling. If you are tactful, offer the horse immediately…”
As soon as his words ended, Chen Rui had appeared in front of Fontein without warning. He didn’t seem to move at all, but Fontein’s words suddenly stopped. Chen Rui didn’t look at Fontein at all. He just set his eyes on Kanita, “Did you touch my horse?”
After saying this, Fontein’s head fell off. Kanita’s facial expression suddenly changed. Fontein has the strength of an early Demon King. Yet, he was killed by this Higher Demon in the blink of an eye… No! He is definitely not a Higher Demon!
The strongest person, Solana took a step forward, blocking in front of Kanita, “Sir, please stop!”
“You’re just a middle stage Demon King. Other than spirit, your physique and strength are not worth mentioning.” Chen Rui glanced at Solana with disdain and extended a hand. “I can turn you into powder with one hand in less than a minute.”
Chen Rui was right that he could kill Solana, but these words were absolutely bluffing. Solana felt a chill in his heart as if he felt like he was naked in front of the other party. This enemy is still the breath of a Higher Demon. However, he could kill the Demon King-level Fontein without much effort. He could easily peep through my strength and weakness now. He is really unfathomable.
Chen Rui walked forward slowly. When Solana was about to cast magic, he realized that the surrounding scenes were different. It seemed that something was changing. The change became clearer every time the opponent took a step.
This was a bizarre scene. He was surrounded by strange balls of all sizes, showing dark and magnificent colors. The rotating rhythm seemed to contain some kind of supreme mysterious law.
Not only that, Solana, Kanita and all the people in this scene felt that their power had inexplicably reduced a lot. There was a feeling of weakness or dizziness from time to time.
Solana’s face changed drastically. He was drenched in cold sweat. Finally, he lost his courage to fight. He uttered a word with great difficulty, “Territory.”
Kanita on the side also changed his complexion. A powerhouse with territory is at least a Demon Emperor!
In the whole Red Spirit Estate, Kanita only knew one Demon Emperor. It was his father, Josh Alvin, but he was only an early stage Demon Emperor. The mysterious “Higher Demon” in front of him was a terrifying powerhouse who was at least at the same level as his father!
“Since you touched my horse, you need to pay the price.” Chen Rui put his hands behind his back, and there was no sign of movement. Although he was still exuding the breath of the Higher Demon, no one dared to take the initiative to attack or even move.
There had been no traces of gods in Demon Realm for a long time. Tens of thousands of years? Hundreds of thousands of years? God knows if the old Demon God had fallen asleep. Even Demi-God like Demon Supremo hardly appeared. This meant that Demon Emperor and Demon Overlord were the top powerhouses. Their territory power had long been deemed God-like.
The territory power of this mysterious powerhouse in front of him was obviously not fully unleashed. Once it was launched, everyone could be wiped out instantly except for the “powerhouse” himself. No one doubted this.
If a Demon Emperor-level powerhouse was placed at Crystal Valley, he would only be a department manager. There were even more powerful general managers and chairmans. But placed in such a place as Town Moling, he was definitely a legendary powerhouse that everyone looked up to!
“The son of Red Spirit Lord, Kanita. Alvin pays respect to sir.” Kanita had finally recovered from the shock. He hastily bowed and saluted.
“Sir.” Solana also said, “Please forgive my previous rudeness. This incident is just a misunderstanding. We didn’t know that the powerful demonic beast is sir’s mount. Please forgive me, sir.”
Chen Rui shook his head, revealing a slight murderous breath in his voice, “I don’t care who your father is, or if there are any misunderstandings. My horse is injured by you now. You must give me a satisfactory explanation. Otherwise, you will all die here.”
This kind of tone was already considered polite to Kanita. After all, they were just ants in front of a powerhouse of this level. If they encountered one with a bad temper, they would be directly killed. This was probably because he had concerns about Kanita’s identity.
“I would like to express my sincerest apology to sir regarding this matter, and I am willing to pay a satisfying compensation to sir.” Kanita said, “I am under my father’s order to control Town Moling at the south of Thunder Valley. If sir has any requests in the future, you can instruct me anytime. I will definitely do it for sir!”
The following was a time for a mutually voluntary rip off. After paying a high price, Kanita and others left the Thunder Valley as if they were amnestied. What surprised the Demon Emperor-level powerhouse sir was that Kanita’s compensation included a so-called ancient treasure map. For Kanita, using this incomplete map to exchange for his life was a valuable use of trash. For Chen Rui, this seemingly familiar map remnant seemed to be part of the map obtained from Dodo previously. Unfortunately, it was still incomplete. He would keep it in the storage warehouse first for now.
“Little black horse, this fruit is for you.” Chen Rui touched the Incubus Beast’s mane affectionately. He took out an aura fruit which was different from devil pomeg, “I still have a lot of these fruits, but unfortunately they have to be eaten once I take it out. Otherwise, they will wither.”
This Incubus Beast was a mutated bloodline. Its physique was very special. It urgently needed the rare coro fruit to assist its growth and fortification. However, even in coro’s sole production area, Thunder Valley, the fruit production was very rare. This “kind man” offered more wonderful fruits which were more potent than coro fruit. How could the little dark horse not be moved?
“Fruity, fruity…”
Seeing the little black horse automatically following him, the cunning horse trafficker showed a sly smile. The abduction plan was successfully completed.
Compared with Chen Rui who took the little black horse along relaxedly, Manu could only be described with anger and despair at the moment. After fleeing with the secret technique, he soon received the news that his elites were wiped out. At the same time, Blood Vine City was controlled. His initial clever trap was almost uprooted.
What was even more troublesome was that his “body” was always filled with a strange power after escaping from the Crystal Valley. It inflicted excruciating pain on him. Although he seemed to be alive and looked much younger, the price of maintaining this state was at the cost of a huge amount of vitality and magic power. If this continued, not only would his power decline rapidly, he couldn’t even survive.
It’s all because of that maniac. A genius maniac who is definitely dead now. Although his death is a pity, it is also a grateful death.
“Sir Manu.”
It was Broc who spoke. He took out a small jar, “This is the violet smoke liquid that is extracted today. However, there are several materials that are getting harder to find.”
“No matter how hard it is, you must obtain it!” Manu snorted and took the small jar. He pulled the stopper and drank it. This violet smoke liquid was extracted from various rare plants such as violet smoke flower using secret recipes. Since Manu drank it, the strange power in his body had been greatly suppressed.
Broc noticed that Manu’s hands were shaking. The cold light in his eyes was fleeting, “Sir, the Bloody Vine City has been completely exposed, and Crystal Valley has also been destroyed. What should we do next?”
Manu closed his eyes and felt the comfort of the pain being soothed by the violet smoke liquid. He took a deep breath, “The change in Crystal Valley has caused us heavy losses this time. The Dark Shadow Empire will definitely suppress and hunt our forces throughout the country now. It’s better for you to go back to the border fortress and act in a low-key manner temporarily. Don’t attract the capital’s attention.”
“Got it.” Broc asked tentatively, “About His Royal Highness, do you want…”
“No need. I will contact myself.” Manu frowned. “You better pay more attention to the whereabouts of Azgalor and Jacob. Contact them as soon as possible.”
Broc nodded. He suddenly showed a strange grin, “Sir, is there any other instructions?”
This grin tightened the sensitive Manu’s heart. Manu narrowed his eyes and made a pondering look. He was actually circulating his power secretly, and suddenly his face changed greatly.
“Don’t be surprised, Sir Manu. You have been trying to hide your injury, but how can you hide it from me? As you know, I am the first general of the Dark Shadow Empire. You did not suffer “magic damage” but the strongest Nirvana power instead.” Broc was still grinning “Violet smoke flower can’t actually suppress the Nirvana power. It will only condense it before violently bursting. The suppression you felt previously is just a hallucination produced by other drugs. However, it is really not easy to trick you to take the violet smoke liquid. It turns out that the previous costs are worth it. Now that you have drank it for seven days, it is time for me to harvest…”
An intense rage surged in Manu’s heart. He thought that his cleverness was above others. He was cautious in every aspect, but he actually fell in Broc’s hands. If it wasn’t the territory power of the terrifying woman. If it wasn’t the maniac…
It was a pity that there were not so many “ifs” in reality regardless of who you were.
At this moment, the Nirvana power which had been suppressed in Manu’s “body” began to spread frantically; his original power had completely scattered. As Manu desperately condensed his power, he felt a sense of danger. Although his consciousness already had the idea of dodging, his body couldn’t make the corresponding movements. He only felt a pain on his chest, then he was penetrated by the long sword, “Blood River”.
Another companion that would fight for food with Dodo?
