173: Chapter 173 Scaring Yourself~

Darkness, like a rising tide, submerged Chen Hu.

The Dark Demon Tiger's figure vanished from mid-air and reappeared beside Chen Hu the next second.

The killing aura enveloping the two grew increasingly dense, and the blood-red light expanded continuously, resembling a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.

The Killing Intent radiating from the blood-light was unsettling, causing a murderous urge to well up in one's heart, a desire to destroy all living things.

Yue Yun's brow furrowed tightly as he forcibly suppressed the murderous intent.

His figure retreated repeatedly until he was dozens of meters away, only then feeling a slight sense of mental tranquility.

"Damn, why is this thing so sinister?"

Xu Qingfang couldn't help but suck in a breath through his teeth.

The Thunderwing Griffin's sharp eyes shot electricity, and its wings blazed with lightning as it circled in the sky, like an arrow ready to strike.

The Nether Horse let out a shrill neigh.

Its broad body acted as a barrier in front of Mo Yu, its mismatched eyes staring intently at that smear of blood-light.

Mo Yu spoke quickly, "While the Asuras Heart increases one's Rank through slaughter, it also accumulates Killing Intent.

The Beast Tamer and Pet Beast must maintain their sanity at all times, or they will become monsters that know nothing but slaughter!"

At this point, Mo Yu turned to look at the Safety Officer.

...

Central Army Command Headquarters.

Bai Qiu崇's voice rang out, unable to hide his disappointment.

"Slaughter has already overwhelmed Chen Hu's reason!"

Everyone's expression tightened; they all knew what this meant.

If Chen Hu's line of defense for his rationality collapsed, he would irreversibly become a monster controlled by the will to slaughter.

Huo Lingguan also shook his head in disappointment.

Chen Huaijin was an established Six-Star Beast Tamer currently pushing for Seven-Star Beast Tamer, yet his grandson was so pathetic.

If he lacked the quality to grow stronger through setbacks, he should at least have had the wisdom to retreat in the face of difficulty, or the grace to accept defeat.

Faced with the failure before him, Chen Hu could not handle it properly; his Heart-Nature was ultimately lacking.

When Chen Huaijin came out of seclusion and saw his grandson turned into a monster that only knew slaughter, there would be another huge scene.

Huo Lingguan snorted coldly, "To spoil a child is to kill them!"

Everyone nodded in deep agreement.

Chen Qingliu then gave Mayor Xu a few instructions.

The arrangements regarding Chen Hu were quickly finalized and transmitted from the Central Army Command Headquarters via the communication channel.

Bai Qiu崇 and Huo Lingguan had no objections and turned their attention back to the screen to watch Yue Yun's actions.

The two Safety Officers soon received the message.

They were shocked by the attitude of the Central Army Command Headquarters. Was Chen Hu, who came from the Imperial Capital, being abandoned so easily?

The two Safety Officers didn't dare think too much and gave the Three Heavenly Kings a subtle look of encouragement.

Chen Hu's grandfather, Chen Huaijin, was a Six-Star Beast Tamer; two Four-Star Safety Officers were not enough to decide his fate.

The Three Heavenly Kings immediately understood that this was the intent of the rear command.

As the blood-red light expanded to its limit and then dissipated, the figures of Chen Hu and the Dark Demon Tiger, shrouded in Killing Intent, were revealed.

Chen Hu's eyes suddenly widened as a long-suppressed wildness erupted, and bone-chilling frost swirled around him.

That was Killing Intent condensed into substance!

The Dark Demon Tiger let out a deafening roar to the sky, its pitch-black body and deep purple stripes covered in blood-red light.

The Killing Intent surrounding them surged violently, and the two seemed to be draped in a blood-red mantle that covered their entire bodies.

They were still at the level of a Three-Star Beast Tamer, yet the aura they radiated was more oppressive than that of a Four-Star Beast Tamer.

"Kill, kill, kill!"

An inhuman hiss burst from Chen Hu's mouth.

The materialized Killing Intent surged, expanding outward from Chen Hu and instantly covering the ground within a ten-meter radius.

With a bang, he launched himself forward, erupting with speed and power comparable to Yue Yun, crashing fiercely toward him.

Yue Yun was naturally unafraid and swung his spear to meet him.

Chen Hu's hands glowed with a tyrannical crimson color, veins writhing frantically under his skin as they spat out blood-red light.

The blood-red light transformed into powerful slashes; when they hit the Rock Spear, frost splattered and Killing Intent spread wantonly.

"This is..."

Yue Yun couldn't help but frown.

The Rock Spear was penetrated by frost and shattered into dross; the Killing Intent quietly affected his mind, as if trying to destroy his spirit.

The Dark Demon Tiger launched an attack from the side.

The Shura Demon Claw, gathering Killing Intent, surged in power, like a blood-colored demonic sword quietly unsheathed, slashing at Yue Yun from a distance.

Swish!

The blood-colored blade edge swept through the air.

Yue Yun was nearly cut in half at the waist, but he didn't split in two as expected, nor was there any so-called blood splatter.

The illusory health bar trembled slightly in response, deducting a thin, almost invisible sliver of health.

At this moment, everyone was dumbfounded.

The two Safety Officers stared blankly at the scene before them.

Xu Qingfang, who had intended to intervene, also froze in place. After exchanging a glance with Mo Yu, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but turn up.

Yue Yun himself was full of bewilderment.

"That's it?"

He had thought Chen Hu and the Dark Demon Tiger were going to go berserk, but now it seemed their momentum was just for show; they weren't as powerful as they looked.

However, that was not the case!

If the target were an ordinary Beast Tamer, they would certainly have found it difficult to withstand Chen Hu's explosive speed and power.

Facing the Shura Demon Claw of the Dark Demon Tiger, which gathered Killing Intent to enhance its power and attacked with sharp force, they could only have died with regret.

But it just so happened that they encountered Yue Yun.

In terms of speed and power, he firmly suppressed Chen Hu, and he completely ignored the substantive damage brought by the Dark Demon Tiger.

"Look at how this turned out!"

Yue Yun couldn't help but complain.

Complaining aside, his reactions were not slow.

His fingers crushed the remains of the Rock Spear into a fist, the muscles on his back bulged, and terrifying power brewed in his right arm.

Boom!

With a loud bang, the arrogant fist-wind tore through the air in front of him, whistling out with heavy force.

Chen Hu's offensive posture was forced to a halt.

His head collided with the whistling fist, bursting like a balloon and spraying broken teeth and flesh.

His body broke apart in the fist-wind swept by the airwave, and like a kite with its string cut, he was smashed backward.

The Beast Tamer died, and the Pet Beasts' spirits were wounded!

The Lingshan Elephant Guard's body shook, and it collapsed to the ground as if it had lost its support, rolling around in agony.

The Dark Demon Tiger was more or less affected, but it didn't directly lose its ability to move and was still trying to attack.

It instinctively mobilized dark power, releasing the skill Dark Raid to quickly approach Yue Yun, and launched the Shura Demon Claw upon closing in.

Facing the mindless Dark Demon Tiger, Yue Yun didn't even bother to pretend, directly tossing his defense aside.

His arms spread like a drawn bow, and he instantly completed his power accumulation, erupting with the strength of his entire body to meet it with surging momentum.

Bang, bang, bang!

Yue Yun's fists struck out like a storm, ignoring the Dark Demon Tiger's counterattacks as the sound of crackling explosions echoed through the mountains.

That familiar feeling surged in his heart.

Thud!

The last punch swung out, and the Dark Demon Tiger fell on its back.

Yue Yun's fist was stained with crimson beast blood as he slowly withdrew it, exuding a majestic and overbearing aura, like a Vicious Beast in human skin.

The two Safety Officers were greatly shocked.

Xu Qingfang shrugged: "We're not needed at all. Old Yue can solo Chen Hu and his two Pet Beasts by himself!"

"That's not exactly it."

Mo Yu recalled for a moment and explained, "A monster controlled by the will to slaughter will stop at nothing to kill.

This kind of fighting style that disregards death is quite tricky, but for Old Yue, it's pretty much his comfort zone!"
