Venerable Demon Chef
Chapter 369 - 366: Beating Huangfu Yu Again (Part 3)
The entire scene fell deathly silent.
The members of the Feng Family gaped, their eyes vacant.
Huangfu Yu, the man who had single-handedly suppressed the entire younger generation of the Hall of Envoys to the point they couldn’t even raise their heads, had been killed with a single slap, just like that?
He didn’t even have time to react, and his body wasn’t even left intact?
But Mo Qi, on the other hand, looked completely unfazed.
It was as if he had just done something utterly trivial.
The same question couldn’t help but rise in everyone’s mind: ’Is he really a Vajra Realm Cultivator from the Mortal District?’
’Is he sure he’s not an Immortal in disguise?’
Though they thought this, anyone could tell that Mo Qi’s Cultivation was indeed only at the Vajra Realm.
After all, his age was plain to see.
Heavens!
’What were we just thinking?’
’To think we actually felt ashamed of such a genius?!’
"What a magnificent young prodigy!" Feng Lun, the Patriarch of the Feng Family, couldn’t help but clap his hands in praise.
The Feng Family Elder who had previously demanded that Mo Qi get lost now felt his face flush red, then pale. He was so ashamed he wished the ground would swallow him whole.
If someone with Mo Qi’s strength and talent could be called a "disgrace," then wouldn’t that make old folks like them utterly shameless?
And wouldn’t that make their descendants nothing more than a pile of dogshit?
"Pass down my orders! As long as it doesn’t shake the foundations of our Feng Family, satisfy this young man’s every request. We must do whatever it takes to win his loyalty and keep him with us!"
"Remember, a talent like this can only be won over with favor, never through force!"
Feng Lun added, his expression grave.
"We will obey the Patriarch’s decree."
The Elders all accepted the order.
They knew that from this day forward, an unofficial emperor with a different surname would appear in the Feng Family.
"Wait! Something’s not right!"
Feng Lun’s expression suddenly changed as a thought struck him.
"Huangfu Yu is dead. Why hasn’t the Huangfu Family made a move?"
There was no way the Huangfu Family would have let Huangfu Yu provoke another family all by himself. An expert had to be protecting him from the shadows.
So why hadn’t this expert revealed themself after Huangfu Yu’s death?
At the same time, Mo Qi, hovering in mid-air, looked down at Huangfu Yu’s headless corpse and let out a cold laugh.
"Stop playing dead. Your Life Aura is as glaring as a flame in the dark to me. Let’s fight!"
Not dead?!
Hearing Mo Qi’s words, the crowd was shocked once more.
His head was blown to bits, yet Huangfu Yu could still be alive?
As if in response to their doubts, Huangfu Yu’s corpse stirred, slowly rising from the ground.
A blood-red eye floated above Huangfu Yu’s severed neck.
It was the Asura Blood Pupils!
A cloud of blood mist erupted from the Asura Blood Pupils, then rapidly contracted to form a new head.
After a moment of writhing, the face on the head reformed into the likeness of Huangfu Yu.
A brand-new head was born in this unbelievable fashion. It fused perfectly with the neck, and compared to before, it looked no different at all.
"How did you do that?"
Huangfu Yu’s expression was incredibly foul.
He never imagined that after his strength had greatly increased, his second clash with Mo Qi would leave him even worse off than the first.
He was killed in an instant, without even a chance to fight back.
If he hadn’t unlocked a new ability of his Asura Blood Pupils, that single slap from Mo Qi would have truly killed him.
"I could tell you were playing dead with a single glance. Was that supposed to be difficult?" Mo Qi shrugged, his tone matter-of-fact.
Never mind the fact that after achieving the Nine Transformations into Spirit, his understanding of life itself had undergone a world-altering change.
With the Power of Life gifted to him by the Five Elements Tree alone, none of Huangfu Yu’s movements could escape his perception.
Even though he had shattered Huangfu Yu’s head with one slap, he had clearly sensed that Huangfu Yu’s Life Force was not dissipating.
Therefore, Mo Qi was certain that Huangfu Yu had not died.
"I’m not talking about that. I’m asking how you can wield Immortal Level Power!" Huangfu Yu demanded furiously.
Every part of Mo Qi’s expression and tone was a source of humiliation for him.
But more than that, he desperately wanted to know how Mo Qi was able to command Immortal Level Power.
Mo Qi chuckled, but his smile held a bone-chilling coldness.
"You want to know? Then experience it for yourself!"
The moment he finished speaking, Mo Qi swung a backhand slap.
This time, Huangfu Yu was prepared. He summoned a shield-type Magical Artifact with all his might. Driven by his Asura Bloodline, a dense Qi and Blood Power roiled ceaselessly, granting him tremendous strength.
However, under the dual enhancement of his providence and the Power of the Dragon Vein, Mo Qi’s current combat power was formidable even among Immortals.
BOOM!
The shield Magical Artifact shattered on impact. The Palm Force continued onward, undiminished, and once again smashed Huangfu Yu’s head to pieces.
This time, Huangfu Yu regrew his head before his body even hit the ground.
"You’ve gone too far!"
Huangfu Yu roared in fury.
"Hmph. And what if I have?" Mo Qi struck again. Same move, same target. For the third time, he blew Huangfu Yu’s head apart.
"I’d like to see just how many times you can grow that head back!"
Mo Qi had long since decided to kill Huangfu Yu. He could sense that the Asura Bloodline within Huangfu Yu was far from ordinary.
If he was allowed to mature, he would become a huge problem in the future.
"Master, save me!"
Having restored his head yet again, Huangfu Yu had lost his earlier composure. The color had drained from his face.
The new ability of his Asura Blood Pupils was mysterious and powerful, but it couldn’t withstand Mo Qi’s relentless attacks.
Once the restorative ability of the Asura Blood Pupils was exhausted, he would not be able to revive again.
Thus, Huangfu Yu could no longer care about saving face and cried out loudly for help.
The moment Huangfu Yu cried out, a great hand wreathed in Immortal Power reached out from the void, grasping for Mo Qi.
Mo Qi didn’t dare to be careless. He gathered his strength to meet the attack head-on.
BOOM!
A massive explosion rocked the entire Feng Family territory, causing it to shake violently.
Powerful energy waves rippled outward, causing the Power of Heaven and Earth to run rampant and space itself to fracture.
If not for the protection of an Array, the Feng Family’s lands wouldn’t have just shaken; they might have suffered the same fate as the Void Sect.
The clash between Mo Qi and the mysterious, great hand lasted for only an instant.
He felt a strange and powerful Energy penetrate his Incarnation Battle Armor, travel up his arm, and drill into his flesh, wreaking havoc as it went.
In an instant, his muscles and bones ruptured, splattering blood everywhere.
"That’s Immortal Power! Mo the kid, force it out now, or your body is finished!" the Pig Emperor, hiding in Mo Qi’s robes, urgently warned.
Mo Qi didn’t dare hesitate. But just as he was about to channel the Power of the Dragon Vein to counter the Immortal Power, the Chaos Scripture in his Sea of Consciousness trembled slightly. A massive gravitational pull, like a great dragon sucking up water, completely siphoned away all the Immortal Power rampaging through his flesh and blood.
"Mo the kid, look out!"
The Pig Emperor’s voice rang out again while Mo Qi was still in a daze.
Mo Qi looked up to see the mysterious, great hand descending once more.
’I can’t meet it head-on!’
Mo Qi knew that in terms of combat power, he was actually no weaker than the hand’s owner.
But the Power of the Dragon Vein was finite; every bit he used was a bit he wouldn’t get back.
The road ahead was long. There was no need to waste his Immortal Level Combat Power here.
Besides, this was the Feng Family’s territory!
An Immortal from the Huangfu Family had made a move. Could the Feng Family really just stand by and do nothing?
"Huangfu, you’ve crossed the line!"
Just as Mo Qi dodged the great hand’s attack, a deep, powerful voice boomed from the depths of the Feng Family estate.
