Chapter 2373: A Headless Corpse

The women who were watching from the palace couldn't help but becdiscouraged. If the Monster Lord could see what the following attack would be and what kind of objective the opponent had, what meaning was left in fighting?

“Big sister, doesn’t this mean that in this situation, Ah Zu will lose for sure?” Pei Mianman couldn't help but consult Jing Teng for guidance.

Jing Teng shook her head slightly. “That may not be. It's now a tough fight, but that doesn’t necessarily mean he's completely invincible. For example, even if he saw the opening, it could disappear too quickly, or the enemy could be too strong, preventing him from being able to take advantage of it at all.”

Yun Yuqing said worriedly, “But the Monster Lord should be strong enough to exploit those weaknesses, right?”

“Ah Zu is also strong enough, or else he would’ve already been at a disadvantage after fighting for so long,” Jiang Luofu reassured her. However, her words were more so intended to get the others’ agreement and thus give herself sconfidence.

Ji Xiaoxi’s cultivation was the lowest. She could only ask with concern, “But if the opponent has that kind of ability, just how is big brother Zu going to defeat his enemy?”

Jing Teng becquiet. At this moment, the Monster King had the Treasure Sinking Coin at his disposal. Even she wouldn't necessarily be able to defeat him at the height of her strength.

Just then, Salamay said mockingly, “The Monster Lord is stronger than your man to begin with, and he even has so many heaven-defying skills. Any talk of defeating him is just lunatic nonsense.”

At first, she had been hoping for Zu An and the Monster King to take each other out and hadn’t really known who to root for, but now that she heard these women continue to show concern for their lover, she felt an indescribable anger bubbling inside her.

Why did I have to live such a bitter life? I lost my father when I was young, and I’ve lived for so, so long while being on the run as a fugitive. I went through painstaking efforts to finally save my father, but it was all a lie too! I was being played by these two from the very start.

These women were all pretty and had good cultivations. Salamay could tell that they had good backgrounds and had been raised with care. Furthermore, they even had a handsome, strong, and perfect lover like the regent.

Just what right do you have to live such a blessed life?

Salamay’s face began to distort. She thought about how it was this Zu An who had deceived her and led her to this result, and that was why she hadn’t been able to save her father.

He must’ve been laughing atwhen he sawtry my ‘honey trap’, right?

When she realized that, her anger toward Zu An went through the roof. Her hatred for him even surpassed what she felt for the Monster Lord. There was even a voice within her calling for the Monster Lord to win. She wanted to see those women shed bitter tears so they could all share the misery together.

Sometimes, winning alone doesn’t feel as good as both sides losing!

Sure enough, when they heard what she said, the women's expressions changed. There was clearly already a shadow looming over their minds.

Just then, Zu An said the words ‘what you lookin’ at’!

The sentence cout incredibly abruptly, and at such a crucial moment, no less. Apart from Pei Mianman and sof the other women revealing happy looks, everyone else had a strange expression.

The Monster Lord was also surprised, and he was even more surprised that he couldn't hold himself back from replying, “I’m looking at you, shithead!”

As soon as he said that, his expression changed. With his knowledge and experience, how could he not understand that this was sform of Soulspeak? He was controlled for only a tiny fraction of a second. His reaction was already as fast as could be.

However, in a battle like this between the strongest of beings, that amount of twas already enough for them to do too many things.

A dazzling sword ccrashing down from up above. At that moment, everyone present felt as if there were ten suns in the sky. They saw the starry skies themselves crashing down.

Two figures instantly clashed. Soon after, they separated and ended up sdistance away.

“Ah!” When she saw a wound on Zu An's chest that reached all the way to the bone, Pei Mianman couldn't help but cry out. Blood was gushing out, and she could even see his heart throbbing inside.

Zu An raised his hand to tap against his chest, and the bleeding by the wound began to stop. The wounded flesh also began to heal. But his face was still really pale.

Pei Mianman and the others knew just how tough Zu An’s body was. It was even tougher than that of a great dragon! If it were anyone else, this attack from the Monster Lord alone would’ve already chopped them in two. Even though he wouldn’t die, this level of injury was already enough to decide the rest of this fight.

Salamay burst out laughing. After all, the Monster Lord looked completely fine!

The heavens have heard my sincere prayers and taken pity on me!

These women and that regent can keepcompany in the grave!

“What was that move of yours earlier called?” The Monster Lord cracked a grin. It seemed as if he wanted to laugh, but he couldn't.

“What you lookin’ at?”

“I’m looking at you, shithead!”

The two almost seemed to have tacitly agreed to replay the earlier situation.

The Monster Lord finally laughed. “It is a skill with its own rules, as expected. This defeat wasn’t undeserved...”

His head suddenly drooped, and then actually tumbled off his neck!

It turned out that dazzling sword had already sliced through his neck! Only someone as powerful as him could say so much before succumbing to such a wound.

When they saw the glorious and mighty Monster Lord suddenly turn into a headless corpse, everyone in the temple was stupefied.

Salamay’s smile froze on her face. How was this possible?!

The True Demon experts were also in disbelief. The Monster Lord who had dominated an entire era actually died just like that?

In contrast, Pei Mianman and the women couldn't hold back their happiness and cheered.

Only Jing Teng frowned slightly. Pei Mianman couldn't help but say, “It seems you aren’t that happy.”

Jing Teng couldn't be bothered with the 'big sister' matter anymore and quickly said, “I fear things might not be that simple.”

In order to guard against any potential eventualities, Zu An released a blast of sword ki to turn the Monster Lord’s head into a blast of bloody mist. Only then did he fly over to the corpse to collect his spoils. The Skill Penetrating Eyes couldn't be obtained, but the Treasure Sinking Coin was definitely a treasure.

However, he immediately sensed danger and flew back a kilometer. The spot he had just been in was instantly surrounded by a burst of green energy.

“This is the green energy that three-headed bird fired out before!”

It was unknown who said those words, but everyone immediately recalled what had happened back then. Upon contact, one of Salamay’s powerful subordinates had immediately turned into a skeleton. Judging from this, it was easy to see just how frightening this power was.

Zu An also gave the green energy a vigilant look. When he was up close, he finally saw what it was: A cloud of small green bugs that had incredibly potent venom and excelled at devouring flesh. Back then, that powerful monster had all of his flesh devoured by these bugs! This could be one of the most gruesways to die.

“Tsk tsk tsk, you actually cut off my head. I really did underestimate you,” the Monster Lord’s cold voice said.

“Who is speaking?” Everyone in the temple saw the headless corpse in the air and felt a chill run down their backs. Goosebumps covered their entire bodies.
