After Favorability Is Maxed

199 Martial Emperor (3)

After Liu Yuan used Evil Heart to interfere for a moment, he immediately changed his move. He raised his sword and crossed the blade, constantly paying attention to Shen Tuwu’s movements.

He did not have any spiritual power now, and his Evil Heart Sword was only left with those buffs that came with it. He used the Killing Sound move clumsily, and did not have much confidence that it could have much power.

In fact, Liu Yuan had indeed obstructed Shen Tuwu’s escape. However, looking at the demonic monkey’s demeanour, Evil Heart had indeed caused him to feel pain. However, as it was not powerful enough, it instead stimulated his ferocity.

The demonic monkey was delirious and lost its strength halfway to the door, rolling on the ground. He shook its head and bared its fangs, spewing out a bloody smell. He looked around with his red eyes and its crazy eyes locked on a few Green Cloud Temple people who were closest to the door and were ready to intercept.

Swish!

The monkey’s speed increased. In a flash, he crossed a distance of ten feet and arrived beside the frightened people. He stretched out the sharp claw on his remaining hairy hand.

He jumped up and landed on the shoulder of one of the men. His curved feet firmly grabbed the man’s shoulder, and the shadow of his claws cut through the air, instantly breaking the man’s head and penetrating it.

The demonic monkey laughed, then lowered its head and bit his throat.

Plop!

The headless corpse fell to the ground, and the demonic monkey raised the head in his hand and laughed wildly.

The people beside him pulled out their long swords and stabbed at him. Shen Tuwu threw the head away, interfering with one of the people’s vision. He then broke through the encirclement and charged back.

“Hahahahaha… Murder!” Shen Tuwu faced Zhu Qi and Liao Liu, who were charging at him from behind. He did not dodge or evade. His consciousness was completely affected by the Evil Heart Sword, and the fighting power that erupted from him soared.

However, at the same time, he, who should have fled immediately, had turned into a berserker instead. Although his aura was astonishing, it actually made everyone heave a sigh of relief.

They were not afraid of being beaten, but they were afraid that he would run away with Marrow-Cleansing Scripture, causing everyone’s efforts to go to waste.

Liu Yuan did not expect the effects of Evil Heart to be so outstanding. The pitch-black longsword in his hand was burning hot, and the fine cracks on it glowed with a fiery blood-red light once again. It let out a soft sword cry, as if it was excited by the slaughter.

Liu Yuan thought to himself, ‘As expected, the Evil Heart still needs to absorb negative auras like blood, Qi, evil Qi, and killing Qi to strengthen itself.’

However, ever since he got this sword, Liu Yuan had never used it to kill monsters.

The only time he had a serious fight with Ye Cike’s old servant was when he did not kill him. In fact, he did not even shed much blood.

It was no wonder Evil Heart was so excited now. It had been holding it in for too long.

Although they encountered many rotten exotic beasts along the way, Liu Yuan was too well protected and did not even have the chance to fight. Evil Heart could only watch… It was like watching a live broadcast of eating and drinking in front of him, but he only had a cornbread in his hand.

Now that he was suddenly given a bowl of instant noodles, he was overjoyed.

Furthermore, it was probably because Shen Tuwu was a demon that he had a killing frenzy that came from his instincts. His will was also not very firm. Hence, he was immediately affected by Evil Heart.

No matter what, Liu Yuan’s goal of stopping Shen Tuwu had been achieved.

Liu Yuan gripped his sword tightly, and Zhiying stood beside him. He Qingmeng, on the other hand, was so scared that she was trembling. She hid in a corner behind him. Seeing that the monkey demon had temporarily left, she immediately pounced on him with tears in her eyes and mumbled that it was scary.

Zhiying frowned and looked up at Liu Yuan, who had turned around to comfort He Qingmeng. Suddenly, he felt depressed.

She looked at her clean body, without a single trace of blood or dirt. She thought that if she had known earlier, she wouldn’t have avoided the blood that the demon monkey had poured on her.

At this moment, it had only been a few seconds since Shen Tuwu had come over to kill a person and then turned back. The positions of the two sides had changed. Zhu Qi and Liao Liu immediately fell into a fierce battle with Shen Tuwu, tangling with him.

The first two were both rough and thick-skinned, while the latter was known for its agility. Both parties could not do anything to each other, but Shen Tuwu had been injured by Zhiying and had lost his mind. He only had a temporary advantage, but he would soon be defeated.

However, at this moment, Tang Yuanhua made a move.

“Be careful of the puppets!” he shouted sternly.

Everyone looked over and saw a bloody doll made of broken parts stand up, and behind it, several other dolls also wobbled and ‘woke up’.

“Ah!” Shen Tuwu let out a sharp scream as he was sent flying by Zhu Qi’s blade. He crashed into a bookshelf and knocked down several shelves. He rolled on the ground several times, and his blood flowed along the way, smearing on the parts of the puppets on the ground.

When Tang Yuanhua saw the blood and the faintly glowing runes on the puppets, he vaguely understood the key point. These puppets must be controlled by Blood Qi, just like the puppets of the evil sect.

“Don’t let the blood touch the puppet parts on the ground!” He said with an unsightly expression.

“Kekekeke…!” Shen Tuwu laughed strangely as he fell to the ground. His monkey-like appearance looked particularly ferocious.”What human Martial Emperor? Everyone says humans are merciful, but demons are brutal. Yet, humans demons for experiments and make them half-dead, creating disgusting monsters! Bah!”

He spat to the side in anger, suddenly jumped up, and rolled on the ground, staining all the puppets with blood.

Liu Yuan recalled the first mutant beast he saw in the palace. It was a human-shaped monster that looked like an ape.

Ka ka ka ka ka!

On the ground, the puppet parts that had been stained with Shen Tuwu’s blood stood up one by one.

There seemed to be a light golden core floating and rotating in their chests and abdomens, constantly absorbing the blood in their bodies and transforming it into power.

Those parts formed a human figure, and weapons appeared in his hands as he charged at the group.

These puppets were even more terrifying than the ones he had seen in the tomb. They looked almost like humans, and their skin was soft and bloody. Their eyes could even move, and when they opened their mouths, they had teeth and tongues. They looked like the cyborgs from Ghost in the Shell in Liu Yuan’s memory.

The most important thing was that the core on their bodies exuded the aura of spiritual power, and so did the weapons in their hands.

“Chuichui!”

At this point, most of the things that should be destroyed in the library had been destroyed. Liu Yuan had no more scruples and threw out Chuichui away.

Boom!

The demon dragon’s huge body instantly burst the entire library, and many of the puppets were crushed into meat paste. These puppets seemed to be Hong Luan’s primary form and already possessed the shape of a ‘human’.

From a distance, one could see a small cloud of smoke and dust in the air of the Scripture Chamber, which was nearly a hundred feet tall. The bookshelves were all falling down, and a flood Dragon was roaring and clinging to the mechanism shelf next to it.

As Liu Yuan held He Qingmeng and grabbed Chuichui’s scales, he turned his head and heard a loud noise from the platform where Hong Luan and the others were.

Creak creak creak!

The mechanical lock was suddenly opened, and countless strange beasts rushed in, rushing toward Hong Luan, the little fox, and the others, who were caught off guard.

Behind the beasts, an alluring figure slowly walked in.

Liu Yuan’s pupils shrank. The figure seemed to have noticed his gaze and looked up to meet his eyes. She twirled her fingers around her hair and smiled charmingly.

It was Pang Ying!
