NOVEL WEB Chapter 152 - You Can't
Boom!
A deafening explosion rang out, and in the eyes of the distant Mo Snake Tribe members, a figure was suddenly knocked back several meters, dragging up a trail of sand and dust.
As the dust settled, the figure that had been knocked back became visible to the Mo Snake Tribe members.
And then, every person’s face was filled with extreme horror.
The one who had been knocked back was none other than their Tribe Leader, Mo Ba Si!
Meanwhile, at this moment, Yao Chen was casually standing there with one hand holding the Heavy Black Ruler.
Mo Ba Si, who had been knocked back, stared blankly at Yao Chen, and his mind was in chaos.
I’m a Dou Wang (Battle King, 6th Level), and I was just knocked back by a young man who was a Dou Shi (Battle Master, 3rd Level) a moment ago and has now reached the Dou Ling (Battle Spirit, 5th Level) level?
Are you kidding me?
I’m a Dou Wang (Battle King, 6th Level)! A Dou Wang (Battle King, 6th Level)!
There’s no reason for this kid, even if he used some secret method to elevate himself to the Dou Ling (Battle Spirit, 5th Level) level, to be able to knock me back!
In Mo Ba Si’s heart, he was shouting like this, but Yao Chen nonchalantly waved her arm.
In her eyes, there was a sense of surprise no less than Mo Ba Si.
‘This kid’s physique… has become even stronger…’
Yao Chen’s eyelids trembled slightly. After all, the opponent was a Dou Wang (Battle King, 6th Level), and she didn’t think she could win against him with Dou Ling (Battle Spirit, 5th Level) strength.
So from the beginning, Yao Chen had only planned to escape with Xiao Yan’s body. Just now, she had only symbolically swung the Heavy Black Ruler.
But unexpectedly, this had directly sent Mo Ba Si, the Dou Wang (Battle King, 6th Level), flying!
This unexpected result made Yao Chen couldn’t help but feel a bit speechless.
Oh, my Xiao Yan, what kind of body do you have?
Before, although Yao Chen had also used Xiao Yan’s body, it was only for the purpose of treating Little Lion King, not for combat.
So at that time, Yao Chen’s impression of Xiao Yan’s body was that it was very useful and comfortable.
However, now that she had actually fought with Xiao Yan’s body, Yao Chen was even more shocked.
This physique is terrifying. Let alone a Dou Wang (Battle King, 6th Level), even if a Dou Huang (Battle Emperor, 7th Level) were to come, she would have the confidence to deal with them easily.
Well, I originally wanted to run away directly.
A smirk appeared at the corner of Yao Chen’s mouth.
Since that’s the case, there’s no need to run.
Yao Chen carried the Heavy Black Ruler on her shoulder and provocatively looked at the dumbfounded Mo Ba Si, raising her hand to beckon to him.
“Hey, Black Snake brat, can’t handle this?”
!!!!!
This sentence, combined with Yao Chen’s mocking gesture, instantly ignited Mo Ba Si anger.
A Dou Ling (Battle Spirit, 5th Level)… no, just a Dou Shi (Battle Master, 3rd Level)! Dare to shout at me?!
I’m a Dou Wang (Battle King, 6th Level), a Dou Wang (Battle King, 6th Level)!
“Just a Dou Ling (Battle Spirit, 5th Level)! You can never defeat a Dou Wang (Battle King, 6th Level)!” Mo Ba Si clenched his long spear and charged at Yao Chen again, shouting angrily, “This is the truth of this world!”
“Heh, the truth?”
Mo Ba Si astonishing speed appeared quite slow in Yao Chen’s eyes.
With a frivolous expression, Yao Chen tightened her grip on the Heavy Black Ruler and pulled it back slightly.
With unwavering determination, she proudly declared, “My disciple! What he’s going to shatter is the truth of this world!”
“And a mere Dou Wang (Battle King, 6th Level) can’t get in his way!”
As she spoke, Yao Chen used the same Dou Technique as Xiao Yan.
But the power was more than ten times that of Xiao Yan!
“Flame Splitting Tsunami!”
The Heavy Black Ruler, imbued with the Bone Chilling Flame, emitted a blinding white light that stretched nearly a hundred meters, carrying a thunderous momentum as it crashed down towards Mo Ba Si.
Mo Ba Si, who had been charging forward, suddenly stopped in the face of this attack.
In his eyes, there was only despair.
He couldn’t resist…
Facing this attack, Mo Ba Si didn’t have the slightest desire to resist.
His mind was blank.
He let Yao Chen’s nearly hundred-meter-long blade of light crash down on him.
Boom!
As the Heavy Black Ruler hit the ground, a chaotic sandstorm swept through the area!
The swirling sand and dust obscured the vision of the Mo Snake Tribe members, preventing them from seeing what was happening in the field.
However, even though their sight was blocked, the fear in their eyes couldn’t be concealed!
This kind of terrifying attack, even their Tribe Leader, Mo Ba Si, couldn’t possibly achieve!
Several seconds passed, and the chaotic swirling sandstorm gradually subsided.
As time passed, the Mo Snake Tribe members could finally see what was happening in the field.
Mo Ba Si, who had faced the attack head-on, was now standing there unscathed.
However, he was slightly shorter in stature, almost as if he were kneeling on the ground, completely motionless.
But upon closer inspection, it was evident that his body, and even his clothes, were trembling continuously.
On the other side, Yao Chen lightly waved her slightly numb arm, hoisted the Heavy Black Ruler onto her shoulder, and walked slowly towards Mo Ba Si.
When she reached Mo Ba Si side, she patted his shoulder lightly.
Her lips approached his ear, and she whispered softly.
“Black Snake brat.”
“Go back and practice some more.”
“You’re not good enough.”
After saying these words, Yao Chen prepared to leave, crossing over Mo Ba Si.
But Mo Ba Si, as if just coming back to his senses, didn’t turn around and asked softly.
“Why… didn’t you kill me?”
“Hmph~~~ Well, I can only say that I don’t want to cause trouble for my disciple,” Yao Chen raised her head slightly, glancing sideways at Mo Ba Si, “If you were to die by my hands, my disciple would feel guilty~”
This was the truth.
Up to now, Xiao Yan had only killed people who had crossed his bottom line.
Whether it was Liu Xi in Wutan City, the bandits who had blocked their way, or the mercenaries in Qingshan Town.
Those were people Xiao Yan believed deserved to die, so he acted accordingly.
But Mo Ba Si was not in that category.
Even though he had almost killed Xiao Yan, in Xiao Yan’s eyes, Mo Ba Si shouldn’t die, and couldn’t die.
One reason was that Mo Ba Si hadn’t violated Xiao Yan’s bottom line regarding people.
Just like Mu Li, regardless of whether Mu Li wanted Xiao Yan’s life or not, Xiao Yan had to kill him.
Mu Li’s existence was something Xiao Yan couldn’t accept.
And the second, and most important point.
If Mo Ba Si were to die, the goal of peaceful coexistence between humans and the snake-people would be even further away.
Even if Mo Ba Si were to die, he absolutely couldn’t die at Xiao Yan’s hands.
Because Xiao Yan was Xiao Li’s younger brother.
If Xiao Yan personally killed Mo Ba Si, it would undoubtedly destroy all of Xiao Li’s efforts so far.
In any case, Xiao Yan wouldn’t want Mo Ba Si life.
Although this made Yao Chen quite unhappy.
The other person almost took your life, and you still want to spare him.
But there was nothing she could do.
After all, her disciple was this kind of person~
Therefore, even though Yao Chen wanted to kill Mo Ba Si in her heart, she had to endure it.
She could only leave with a few words.
“Think about it carefully. Think about why I spared you.”
“At least let my grievances have some value.”
With these words, Yao Chen slowly left the area.
It wasn’t until then that Mo Ba Si turned slightly and looked to his side.
There, a deep abyss several hundred meters long had appeared, with sand pouring down on both sides like waterfalls, and it seemed to have no bottom.
