Martial Arts: I Have Diligence Reward System

Although a Ninth Grade’s defense was indestructible, their internal organs were relatively fragile. What was more, the energy destroying them came from a Zenith aura. Even at a mere twenty percent, a Zenith aura was still a Zenith aura. Against a Ninth Grade at their peak, twenty percent of a Zenith aura might be useless, but for these badly wounded Ninth Grades, it was a fatal blow.

SPURT!

SPURT!

Fei Tianhong frantically spewed blood from his mouth. His first instinct was to flee. Dammit! His Qi Blood had already been exhausted, and with his internal organs injured by the rebounding Qi Blood, he could not even self-destruct.

Fei Tianhong stared dumbfounded at Mo Kai, his mind completely blank.

That was right. Cang Ji’s face melted like wax, revealing Mo Kai’s appearance underneath.

”You, you... you aren’t Cang Ji!”

Fei Tianhong was so furious he almost fainted.

Cang Ji had been Mo Kai in disguise, using a scheme to kill him. Dammit! He had actually fallen for it. He wondered why Mo Kai also possessed a Zenith aura, and if Mo Kai was about to break through as well. But it didn’t make sense. He had no grudges against Mo Kai, so why would the other man want to kill him?

”Mo Kai, why did you ambush me?

”If there’s anything you need, just say it! I can give you everything!”

Facing a threat to his life, Fei Tianhong hurriedly tried to negotiate. He knew what kind of person Mo Kai was. Because Mao Yao City had been destroyed, Mo Kai had extorted Cang Ji for a long time. Furthermore, he openly defied the orders of the Eight Races Sacred Land, making him somewhat of a maverick Ninth Grade.

This was a ruthless character. Fei Tianhong only hated himself for being so careless and not guarding against this animal.

”I only need your head!”

BOOM!

Mo Kai slammed his palm down, instantly smashing half of Fei Tianhong’s body into pieces. Fei Tianhong had been trying to escape this entire time, but Mo Kai’s strike completely ruined any chance he had.

”Why? I want a reason!”

Fei Tianhong’s pupils were scarlet. He was already on his last breath, but he still wanted to cry from the sheer injustice of it all. If he had been ambushed by a Divine Land Martial Artist, he could have accepted it, but who would have thought he would ultimately be backstabbed by Mo Kai? It was an unexpected disaster.

”A reason?

”There is no reason. When I, Mo Kai, kill someone, why would I need a reason!”

RUMBLE!

Mo Kai completely severed Fei Tianhong’s life force before cutting off his head.

”Next, I should go have a chat with Gang Yue. That guy’s Qi Blood is also exhausted right now.”

Mo Kai found a Choice Beast Hide and packed Fei Tianhong’s corpse inside.

Steel Bone City!

Gang Yue had just returned to the city. In fact, he was the least injured out of everyone. Aside from his exhausted Qi Blood, he hadn’t suffered any major harm. After all, the enemy Gang Yue had faced was merely a Ninth Grade steel puppet. What was more, the Steel Bone Race excelled at defense. Even if he had fully participated in the battle, he would definitely be the last one to die.

After returning to the city, Gang Yue was still reeling from the terror of the battle just now. Even a Zenith like Cang Ji had been killed. Just how terrifying was the Divine Land? And then there was Baiheng City. His youngest grandson happened to be in Baiheng City recently, so he likely had no chance of survival this time either. The hateful Divine Land deserved to die a thousand deaths.

Without Jing Niao City in this region from now on, the martial artists of the Zhao Qi Corps would definitely come and go recklessly. Their cultivation speed in the Wet Realm was extremely fast, so they would very soon produce a batch of powerhouses. With their side weakening and the enemy growing stronger, it was not a good thing.

But Gang Yue couldn’t stop the Divine Land either!

There were only a few cities nearby. Jing Niao City was destroyed, and the Palm Eye Race had been wiped out. Now, only the Blood Boiling Race, the Four-armed Race, and his own Steel Bone Race remained.

The problem was that the animal from the Four-armed Race, Qiu Fenghai, had always held a grudge against Cang Ji, and the Four-armed Race had even gone to war with the Steel Bone Race once. Qiu Fenghai possessed a treasure that Gang Yue coveted. The last time they went to war, Cang Ji and Fei Tianhong had also participated. Unfortunately, with the Palm Eye Race helping Qiu Fenghai, they hadn’t been able to gain any advantage.

”I can only keep a low profile from now on. I originally hoped that after Cang Ji broke through, he could lead me to kill Qiu Fenghai and snatch his Fortune Sword while we were at it.

”But looking at it now, there’s no hope for that in this lifetime!”

Gang Yue muttered to himself in the great hall, his words filled with regret. Cang Ji’s death had really ruined his major plans. Relying on an alliance with Fei Tianhong would give him absolutely no chance of killing Qiu Fenghai. To completely kill a Ninth Grade, aside from Wang Yetao’s method of ambush, one could only rely on the power of a Zenith.

RUMBLE!

At that moment, deafeningly loud booms suddenly echoed from outside the city. Was someone attacking the city?

Jing Niao City had just been breached, so Gang Yue was jumping at shadows. The slightest disturbance was enough to give him a massive fright. After all, having watched Cang Ji die and several Ninth Grades be slain by the Divine Land right before his eyes, how could he not be afraid when he was all by himself now?

BOOM!

Gang Yue shattered the door with a single palm strike. No matter who it was, his first priority would be to drive them away.

”Mo Kai?”

As Gang Yue walked out of the great hall, the first person to enter his line of sight was actually Mo Kai. This was someone he absolutely hadn’t expected to see.

A dozen or so Seventh and Eighth Grade Grandmasters of the Steel Bone Race had surrounded Mo Kai. Every one of them was acting extremely cautious, terrified of angering the Ninth Grade. The other party was a Ninth Grade who could very likely kill them.

”Gang Yue, I’m here to negotiate with you!” Mo Kai stood in the void, his expression completely apathetic.

”Hmph, you stray dog, what kind of scheme do you have planned this time!” Gang Yue sneered. Deep down, he somewhat looked down on Mo Kai. With Mao Yao City destroyed, the current Mo Kai really was nothing more than a stray dog.

”It’s not convenient to talk here. Tell your subordinates to scram!” Mo Kai said with a straight face.

”All of you, stand down!” Gang Yue waved his hand. It was only Mo Kai; there was no need to make such a fuss and make the Steel Bone Race appear petty. ”Say what you need to say, or scram if you have nothing!”
