Chapter 965: Everyone Owes Sun Mo A Favor!
The captives fell silent and none of them spoke.
“Haha, honestly speaking, I was really afraid you guys might answer me. It won’t be fun then.”
Mu Qiansen revealed a malevolent smile and walked beneath a cell. He then raised a torch and placed it below the cell.
The vines that constructed the cage immediately retracted when they were charred due to their fear of fire.
Bang!
The human within immediately fell. Before he could climb up, Mu Qiansen trampled his face into the muddy soil.
“Can you tell me who among the captives are Sun Mo’s disciples?”
Mu Qiansen asked.
The person being trampled on was a middle-aged great teacher. He coldly laughed but didn’t reply.
“You have spirit!’
Mu Qiansen praised. After that, he exerted force and stomped down.
Baji.
The head of the great teacher was crushed. Even his eyeballs rolled out.
Ah!
Some students were so frightened that they screamed.
“Yo, you can’t blame me. Who asked you guys to be more fragile than bugs?”
Mu Qiansen sighed. He then inclined his head and gazed around. “Who should I choose next?”
The gazes of the captives were all filled with nervousness and trepidation.
“What should we do? Should we admit to it?”
Lu Zhiruo asked anxiously. She didn’t want these innocents to die for her.
“It’s useless. He is playing with the captives.”
Li Ziqi smiled bitterly.
After that great teacher had died, Mu Qiansen had asked the question for the second time, and many students already cast glances toward Li Ziqi and the others. Mu Qiansen naturally noticed this, but he didn’t bring it up because he wanted to find an excuse to kill people for joy.
“Don’t tease them anymore. I’m a good friend of Sun Mo!”
Mei Ziyu spoke.
“Wow, what righteousness!”
Mu Qiansen clapped. He then raised the torch and placed it under a cell.
Bang!
A girl fell down. After that, Mu Qiansen kicked her stomach and grabbed her hair.
“Bite off your tongue now, or I’ll kill her!”
Mu Qiansen threatened.
Mei Ziyu fell silent. She didn’t want to see these people die due to being implicated by them. Hence, she admitted it. But now, it was clear that the other party merely wanted to abuse humans.
Even if Mei Ziyu bit off her tongue to commit suicide, it would be useless.
“I will start my countdown. If you don’t bite your tongue off, I’m going to kill.”
Mu Qiansen smiled. “Three, two…”
Just as he counted to ‘two’, the torch in Mu Qiansen’s hand whipped toward the female student’s head.
Bang!
The head flew off and brain matter splattered everywhere,
“You are scum!”
Mei Ziyu roared in rage and wanted to dash out to kill Mu Qiansen, but because of her movements, the vines wound up even tighter and the thorns pierced into her skin.
Pitter! Patter!
Fresh blood splashed over Mei Ziyu’s robes and dripped onto the ground.
“Teacher, don’t be impulsive!”
Li Ziqi hurriedly persuaded.
“Haha, I did that intentionally. What can you do to me?”
Mu Qiansen mocked.
Very soon, the third captive was in Mu Qiansen’s hands.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“You can plead for her to bite her tongue off. If not, your head will be crushed.”
Mu Qiansen tugged the captive’s hair.
“T…teacher, p…please…”
The girl sobbed and stared at Mei Ziyu in despair. The pressure of death was simply too terrifying.
…
“What should we do now?”
Murong Mingyue and Sun Mo had been hiding outside the campsite, but when they heard the commotion, they hurriedly got onto Little Silver and soared into the skies. After that, they saw the second girl student being killed.
According to their original plan, the two of them would wait for the aboriginals to have their meals and after verifying that they had consumed the ‘poison’, Sun Mo would start their rescue mission.
But now, it was clear they couldn’t wait until then.
“You go and save Lian Fangcao, I will catch that aboriginal leader.”
Sun Mo made the decision.
“Alright!”
Murong Mingyue didn’t have any objections. When she had been waiting earlier, the Holy Pharaoh had acted as a scout and already found Lian Fangcao. The unconscious her was locked inside a mushroom-shaped room.
Now that the aboriginals were all grouped up and partaking in the liveliness, their guard was very lax. The rate of success of rescuing Lian Fangcao was very high.
“Action!”
After Sun Mo spoke, he leaped down from his cloud while simultaneously pulling on his bow until it resembled the shape of a crescent moon.
Wind God Arrow!
Swish~
The arrow formed from spirit qi was semi-transparent and fell from the skies.
…
“How much blood do you think your head contains?”
Mu Qiansen teased.
“Don’t kill me, I’m begging you!”
The third captive pleaded for mercy.
“What did you say? I can’t hear it!”
After Mu Qiansen finished asking, just when the captive was preparing to speak again, he suddenly punched her mouth.
Kacha!
Fresh blood along with shattered teeth sprayed out.
The chin of the captive was destroyed. One could even see part of her throat.
“You baddie, my teacher definitely won’t spare you!”
Lu Zhiruo couldn’t bear to watch anymore and shouted out in anger.
“Hehe, don’t you know that my elder brother personally went to chase and kill your teacher? Now, my elder brother should be dragging your teacher’s body back.”
Mu Qiansen sneered. “Oh, let’s kill you next?”
He tossed away the half-dead captive in his hands and walked toward Lu Zhiruo.
“Oi, aboriginal. Can I use a secret treasure to exchange for our lives?”
As the eldest martial sister, Li Ziqi naturally couldn’t let anything happen to her martial siblings. Hence, she interrupted and wanted to draw Mu Qiansen’s attention.
Ying Baiwu wanted to struggle free from the cell, but she wasn’t able to do so. Also, the vines would secrete a type of liquid that would cause the prisoner to feel numb and devoid of strength. This was also why the captives weren’t able to resist even after they were released.
“My status is very precious. If you continue hurting them, I dare to guarantee that your tribe will be wiped out entirely.”
Mei Ziyu also grew anxious.
If something really happened to Sun Mo’s students, she wouldn’t be able to make up for it even if she died 10,000 deaths.
“Since this is the case, let’s start from you!”
Mu Qiansen surveyed Mei Ziyu. “Do you know how we usually handle captives? We will chop their limbs off and bury them in the earth. Ugly freaks like you were originally not qualified to enjoy this punishment, but I’m going to make an exception…”
Such torture naturally had to be done personally, so the torturer could feel the satisfaction. But just when Mu Qiansen took two steps forward, a sense of crisis appeared in his heart. Also, huge wind pressure could be felt from above him.
“What’s that?”
Mu Qiansen lifted his head. After that, an arrow pierced into his shoulder, tearing apart his body and penetrated it fully before entering the soil.
Boom!
Mud splattered everywhere.
“Enemy attack!”
The aboriginals roared loudly, but what replied to them was a rain of arrows!
Tens of spirit qi arrows engulfed the aboriginals.
Swish~ Swish~ Swish~
A moment later, screams of agony rang out.
The captives were puzzled. Just when they wanted to lift their heads, they saw a sturdy figure falling to the ground with a thud.
His iron fist then punched out.
Mu Qiansen, who was struggling to get up, had his nose punched in. He stumbled backward and fell again.
Ka!
Blood gushed forth like water from a broken dam, out of Mu Qiansen’s nose.
“Stop or I’ll kill him!”
Sun Mo roared and placed the sword on Mu Qiansen’s neck.
“What the hell?”
Mu Qiansen was shocked and stunned.
(Why are you here?)
(My elder brother acted personally, but did he actually fail?)
From Sun Mo’s appearance, no traces of a bitter fight could be seen at all. This shouldn’t be the case as his elder brother was one of the strongest hunters in the tribe.
The other aboriginals refrained from shooting for fear of hitting Mu Qiansen and didn’t dare to move recklessly.
“Your leader is now crippled. Now, it is this guy’s turn.”
As Sun Mo spoke, his sword moved to slice Mu Qiansen’s throat.
“Don’t!”
The cold edge of the sword caused Mu Qiansen to subconsciously shout in fear.
The other aboriginals roared. Clearly, they didn’t believe in Sun Mo’s words since crippling someone was much more difficult compared to killing them.
“I climbed that beanstalk. It was regretful that your elder brother and his subordinates chose to pursue me. They had no idea I had a flying-type battle pet.”
Sun Mo shrugged.
Mu Qiansen’s pupils narrowed violently. If that was really the case, this made sense.
“Oh right, my archery skill isn’t bad, right? Your tribesmen who went to climb the beanstalk were all shot and killed by me. It was so easy that it was like they were live targets.”
Sun Mo laughed. “If you don’t believe me, you can send a few people to check the beanstalk’s surroundings. I believe quite a few new corpses of your tribesmen can be found there.”
“Sun Mo, it’s settled!’
Murong Mingyue carried Lian Fangcao on her back and came over.
“Wake her!”
Sun Mo commanded.
Mu Qiansen didn’t speak and Sun Mo directly smashed a fist into his eye.
“You should understand that I’m not discussing this with you. This is an order!”
Sun Mo’s tone grew severe.
“T…teacher? I knew that you would surely come and save me!”
Only now did Lu Zhiruo come to her senses and immediately cried out with happiness. After that, because she moved, the thorns on the vines pierced into her body and caused her to cry out in agony.
“Teacher!”
Li Ziqi lowered her head, feeling ashamed to see her teacher.
(Next time, I definitely cannot become Teacher’s burden and cause him to worry about me!)
Ying Baiwu vowed in her heart.
The other captives also heaved a sigh of relief.
Although Sun Mo had gotten three stars in a year and was a three-time champion, becoming the top ranker on the Great Teachers Hero Rankings, most people still looked down on him somewhat.
This was because you might get high marks in the examination, but this didn’t mean that your combat strength was high. But now, everyone was thoroughly convinced.
They all knew how hard it was to handle these aboriginals. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have become captives. But now, all of them were crushed single-handedly by Sun Mo.
Mu Qianlin was the group leader of this hunting group. Although Mu Qiansen wasn’t the vice group leader, he was the younger brother of the group leader, as well as the son of their elder. If something happened to him, how could the ordinary aboriginals be able to bear the anger of their superiors?
There was no solution to it. They could only wake Lian Fangcao up first. At the very least, Lian Fangcao was one of their tribe members and it was easier to talk to her.
“Sun Mo?”
Lian Fangcao rubbed her glabella, feeling a very painful headache.
“I’ve crippled Mu Qianlin.”
Sun Mo summarized and swiftly described the entire process.
“What?”
Lian Fangcao was shocked and surveyed Sun Mo with disbelief on her face. As for the latter things he spoke about, she completely neglected them.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“You are not lying to me?”
Lian Fangcao instinctively didn’t believe this.
Although her relationship with Mu Qianlin wasn’t good, he was ultimately still an expert of her tribe. If he was crippled by Sun Mo, an invader whose strength was weaker, wouldn’t that mean that their tribe was about to go extinct?
“A few days later, you will know once he comes down from the beanstalk.”
Sun Mo spoke and sincerely continued, “Fangcao, the Nine Provinces are too vast and there are tens of millions of humans. Hundreds of thousands of them are as strong as me. What about the number of people in your tribe? Even if we use ten in exchange for one, humanity can afford to do so.
“If all of you guys died, your tribe would be extinct. But our population is so great, just a few years is needed for the new generation of great teachers to grow up.”
The expression of the green-skinned female turned ashen. After that, she instructed helplessly, “Release the captives.”
“No way!”
The aboriginals didn’t agree.
“Since we can capture them once, we can always capture them a second time. What are you guys afraid of?”
Lian Fangcao berated. “Also, you guys should return to the tribe first and listen to the chieftain’s instructions.”
This was because the green-skinned female was worried that Sun Mo might decide to kill them. Hence, she wanted them to leave. She had a feeling that Sun Mo had a trump card that could kill all of them if he wanted to do so.
“If he dies here, would you guys be implicated if you all are present? But if you guys are not present, your tribe would have no way to blame you.”
Sun Mo spoke a sentence.
Lian Fangcao glanced at Sun Mo but still decided to help him to translate his words.
As expected, the aboriginals no longer persisted and left one after the other.
Lian Fangcao felt somewhat disappointed.
“Help me save them?”
Sun Mo casually sealed Mu Qiansen’s energy meridians and tossed him aside. Even if Lian Fangcao and Mu Qiansen didn’t have a good relationship, Sun Mo wouldn’t kill him.
After all, he was her tribesmen. If Sun Mo personally killed him, Lian Fangcao would surely feel ill-feeling in her heart for Sun Mo.
However, it was impossible for Mu Qiansen to survive. Even if these teachers and students didn’t act, he would still die from severe bleeding. The condition of his muscles was already ‘adjusted’ by Sun Mo’s ancient massaging techniques. His wounds wouldn’t close by themselves.
“…”
Mu Qiansen wanted to cry for help, but he discovered that he basically wasn’t able to make any sound.
(Why is this so? Could he have done something to me?)
As he continued losing blood, Mu Qiansen grew increasingly fearful and regretful. (Why did I offend this fellow for no reason at all?! I truly cannot afford to do such a thing!)
“Teacher!”
After Lu Zhiruo was saved, just when she was about to run toward Sun Mo, the movements of the other captives were even quicker as they rushed there first.
“Teacher Sun, we have no way to repay your kindness for saving our lives!”
“Teacher, boohoohoo, thank you!”
“Teacher Sun, my name is Liu Tie. In the future, please feel free to speak if you have any instructions for me. I will definitely give it my all to help you.”
The students directly knelt while the great teachers bowed 90 degrees to express their thanks.
“Everyone, please rise!”
Sun Mo hurriedly spoke out.
Ding!
Congratulations on obtaining a total of +71,200 favorable impression points.
This was actually all thanks to Mu Qiansen. If he hadn’t been killing a few captives then, everyone wouldn’t have felt their debt of kindness to Sun Mo.
“I’ll kill you!”
A female great teacher lunged toward Mu Qiansen. That student who had gotten killed was her personal student. So, she wanted revenge.
“What are you doing?”
Another great teacher hurriedly held her back. “He’s Sun Mo’s captive. You are not qualified to touch him!”
“Teacher Sun, I apologize for forgetting my manners.”
The female great teacher apologized.
“I can understand your emotions.”
Sun Mo mentally mused at why did that guy hold her back. (You should have just let her kill, so I wouldn’t have to act personally.)
“Oh right, when everyone is resting, do not drink the water from the well. I spiked their well with some mushroom powder, and it now has a strong anesthetic effect.”
After hearing this, Lian Fangcao smiled awkwardly. Indeed, Sun Mo had made some preparations.
The other teachers and students were even more impressed. (Look at how knowledgeable Teacher Sun is, he could even gather local herbs and come up with a plan to easily kill their enemies.)
“Teacher Sun, we will congratulate you in advance for your school’s ascension to the ‘B’ grade.”
The famous schools sent their congratulations. action
Although they were competing in obtaining the most valuable darkness secret treasure to determine the school’s ranking, saving people would be taken into consideration as well.
For example, Sun Mo had saved over ten people right now. The Central Province Academy definitely wouldn’t descend to the ‘C’ grade. As for ascending to the ‘B’ grade, it wasn’t difficult for them due to Sun Mo’s performance.
“Everyone, please listen to my advice. Let’s just leave this forest!”
Sun Mo spoke in a sincere and earnest tone.
Upon hearing this, Lian Fangcao who originally felt trepidation in her heart, was filled with good will towards Sun Mo. He was doing what he had promised.
