Chapter 23: Chapter 23: The One Who Died is Luo Chen

“The one who wants your life!” Chu Mu said coldly.

“What do you think you’re doing, looking for death!” Luo Chen’s face darkened, his gaze fixed on Chu Mu, still somewhat apprehensive from MO Ye’s recent claw swipe.

“Luo Chen, get rid of him, don’t let him interfere!” Zhou Shengmo also glared at Chu Mu with a fierce look.

“I don’t need you to tell me!” Luo Chen was clearly enraged, quickly leaping onto the Wicked Tree Demon’s arm, commanding his soul pet to kill Chu Mu and MO Ye!

The Wicked Tree Demon belongs to the Plant World – Wood Type – Wicked Tree Demon Clan – High grade, judging from its appearance, it possesses the strength of a seventh stage.

The Wicked Tree Demon’s body is nearly three meters tall, making it the largest soul pet among the Island Soul Pet Masters. Its long, dry arms hang down from the tree crown, reaching the ground directly.

When the Wicked Tree Demon walks, it relies entirely on these two long arms. Although its speed is much slower than that of the Rock Monster, it is definitely stronger than the rock monster, and it is not so easy to defeat.

Moreover, Luo Chen is a very conscious soul pet master, knowing how to use his soul pet to protect himself in battle. If it were someone else, MO Ye’s Dark Strike could definitely kill them instantly.

“Hmph, I didn’t expect you could tame a trash fox to this extent. However, what does that matter? Trash is trash, and it’s still going to die!” Luo Chen looks down at Chu Mu and MO Ye from his higher position!

“MO Ye, back off.” Chu Mu swiftly retreated, with MO Ye baring its teeth and slowly moving backwards, its pair of silver eyes were fixed on the large figure of the Wicked Tree Demon.

“You can’t escape, you seek your own death, I can only fulfill you!” Luo Chen scoffed coldly.

As soon as Luo Chen’s words fell, one of the Wicked Tree Demon’s arms unexpectedly elongated, its dry fingers like four rusty long spears, abruptly stabbing towards Chu Mu and MO Ye.

Chu Mu’s movements weren’t slow, flashing his body to avoid the attack, and MO Ye’s movements were even more nimble, skipping lightly to avoid it!

“Jump up!” Chu Mu said.

MO Ye’s movements were still several times faster than the Wicked Tree

Demon’s. When the Wicked Tree Demon couldn’t retract its long arm in time, MO Ye has already climbed up its arm, rushing along its arm directly towards Luo Chen.

“Wood thorn!” Luo Chen shouted, and as soon as his voice fell, six javelin-like branches suddenly appeared on the Wicked Tree Demon’s arm. The tip of each branch targeted MO Ye’s position. They lunged out suddenly, stabbing towards MO Ye!

MO Ye’s path was blocked in front, so it had to give up, jumping down from the Wicked Tree Demon’s elongated arm to the adjacent big tree!

“Buzz! !!!! !! ! ”

A sharp tree branch fiercely struck at MO Ye’s tail, nearly piercing through MO Ye’s tail and the tree!

Fire sparks keep coiling around, burning the surrounding plants, making the forest red and hot.

Tang Xian glanced towards Luo Chen’s location and said, “How has he not dealt with it yet?”

“Luo Chen’s useless soul pet moves slowly, it’s normal to take some time to kill that cunning fox. Anyway, Chu Mu is bound to die.” Zhou Shengmo said nonchalantly.

“That guy must be hiding his strength, that sneak attack earlier almost killed Luo Chen.” Tang Xian said.

“Heh, many people may indeed be concealing their strength. But how does that matter?” Zhou Shengmo waved his hand dismissively, uninterested in Chu Mu who had suddenly appeared. His attention was still fixed on the Ninth-stage Flame Tail. He continued, “It’s running out of energy. Have your Steel Fang continue to attack it.”

Tang Xian glanced at the arrogant Zhou Shengmo, a twitch at the corner of his lips. Throughout this battle with the Ninth-stage Flame Tail, his Steel Fang had been doing the brunt of the fighting while Zhou Shengmo’s fierce wolf preserved its energy.

Even though Zhou Shengmo was arrogant, he was far from stupid. He was now widely regarded as the strongest among them. No matter if it were his own allies or other people, everyone would aim to take him down at the first opportunity just for their survival.

It was clear Zhou Shengmo was well aware of this fact; thus he always kept his fighting power at its optimal level, making others’ Soul Pets fight to their full capability.

“It’s over!” A smile started to form on Zhou Shengmo’s face. Seizing the opportunity, he commanded his fierce wolf to launch a Dark Strike!!

The sprint speed of the 8th stage fierce wolf was horrifyingly fast. The Flame Tail was occupied fighting the Steel Fang. When the wolf stealthily attacked, the Flame Tail couldn’t react at all!

“Boom!” The fierce wolf ruthlessly crashed into the Flame Tail’s stomach. The Flame Tail let out a mournful howl, it was forcefully knocked flying several meters, rolling around the ground and covering the ground in fresh red blood dropping from its mouth.

The fire on its tail began to fade, just like a candle flame about to extinguish against a gentle breeze. The Ninth-stage Flame Tail curled up its body, its eyes filled with resentment as it watched the wolf and Steel Fang..

“Stay by my side, I will get you another companion.” Zhou Shengmo began to laugh, touching the fierce wolf before slowly walking towards the Flame Tail.

Tang Xian called Steel Fang over to his side, his gaze coldly fixed on Zhou Shengmo as if he was making some decision. But after seeing the fierce wolf still full of fighting energy, Tang Xian had to suppress his resentment in the end.

“Ahhhhhh!!!”

Suddenly, a miserable scream echoed from the forest, sending chills down the spine!

Zhou Shengmo turned his head, glanced into the forest and laughed at Tang

Xian, “To be honest, I’d really like to see what Chu Mu looks like dead.”

“You have a grudge against him?” Tang Xian merely twitched the corner of his mouth. He held no liking for Chu Mu, feeling slight contempt towards him as a weakling who entered the island with him. In reality, he looked down upon anyone, Zhou Shengmo included. But now, the latter’s strength was formidable, and he had no choice but to swallow his pride.

“Of course, if it weren’t for him I wouldn’t be here. Everyone from Chu Family deserves to be killed!” Zhou Shengmo’s face changed a little.

“Oh, once you get this Flame Tail, you can vent your spleen on his corpse.” Tang Xian said.

“Of course… but it would be even better if Qin Mengmeng were here.” Zhou Shengmo laughed cheerfully.

“Who is Qin Mengmeng?” Tang Xian asked.

“That has nothing to do with you. Just make sure to keep an eye on Luo Chen, he isn’t very trustworthy!” Zhou Shengmo said.

Tang Xian was about to reply, when he heard footstep sounds, so he turned around to check the sound’s source.

Tang Xian opened his mouth to speak to the incoming person, “Luo Chen, that kid….”

Before he could finish his sentence, he suddenly halted, his gaze fixed on the teenager wearing black clothes with utter shock!

The reason Tang Xian displayed such an expression was that he wasn’t seeing Luo Chen!

“Chu Mu!” Shouted Tang Xian and Zhou Shengmo in shock simultaneously..
