Chapter 426: Chapter 199: Wanted Throughout the Territory

Gao Shu was sent to the temple by the old Priest’s men.

After that, the entire young girl was considered a sacrifice and, following the previous ritual, placed on the altar shaped like a precious basin.

It was evident that the tuna they had arranged earlier had disappeared, leaving only bloodstains in the basin.

"Oh great deity, please enjoy this delicious young girl, this time it’s an Elephant Level offering,"

"If the deity is pleased, we will bring You even more young girls in the future."

The old Priest and his people retreated, respectfully closing the temple’s grand doors, and then quickly departed.

The deity preferred to enjoy offerings undisturbed.

"Next, we just need to wait."

"You there, immediately go back to the previous spot and, once the deity is done enjoying the offering, bring back the Hell’s Wart Gun."

"Yes!"

The old Priest stayed reverently near the temple with his people, for he too was uncertain if the deity would like the offering.

If the deity was displeased and became angry, he had to hurry and clean up the altar immediately, and prepare new offerings for the deity.

However, preoccupied with the Hell’s Wart Gun, he sent his capable subordinates to keep watch at the scene first.

Two yellow-robed Priests, accompanied by seven or eight Tiger Levels, rushed to the place where the heavenly object had fallen.

Upon arriving, the two guards who had been left there rushed over in a panic: "Sirs, that pile of rotten flesh has come back to life."

"What?"

Everyone was startled and quickly went to check.

Indeed, the rotten flesh at the scene was healing and had begun to take on a human shape, though still grossly incomplete.

"We did our best to dissect it, cutting off some of the flesh and casting it away."

"But this thing is too tough, our blades have become dull!"

"Same here, and my blade was even corroded, look."

These two guards were True Tiger Level, armed with sharp weapons, yet they struggled so much trying to cut a pile of rotten flesh.

Even their blades were destroyed, merely touching some microorganisms was enough to disintegrate them.

"Hiss, could this pile of rotten flesh also be Elephant Level?"

"No, if it were Elephant Level, you wouldn’t be able to cut it at all, but it’s at least True Tiger Level."

"How can it have such strong regenerative powers? Even if its head is smashed, it still regenerates?"

The two Priests exclaimed in amazement.

One of them quickly realized: "It’s Super-speed Regeneration, this is Super-speed Regeneration. Only this ability could function without the critical part which is the brain."

Everyone from the Mountain God stronghold’s faces changed.

They had never seen Super-speed Regeneration before, but they had heard of this ability, an SSR module.

"It seems we’ve run into some serious trouble."

"As expected, both this person and that girl were being chased."

"Coming from the south, that must be from the Fujihara domain or the Sea King domain, and I reckon people will be searching here soon."

"Quick, completely dismember this guy, throw him down the mountain, and then everyone fall back to the Mountain God stronghold."

The two Priests sensed danger and began chopping wildly at the rotten flesh. Both being Tiger Level, with immense strength, they quickly hacked the body into large pieces.

But just then, two hands rested on the shoulders of the two Tiger Levels: "Since you know someone will come searching, do you really need to be so heartless?"

Startled by the presence, the two Tiger Level Priests were shocked. When they looked at their shoulders, there were no hands!

Why did they feel like there were hands resting on their shoulders?

"Who’s there!"

The others quickly drew their weapons, slashing towards the individual.

However, all their attacks were intercepted before they could even reach him.

Despite the frenzied flurry of chopping and jabbing, they couldn’t get close, not even nicking a piece of his clothing.

"No good! This is an Elephant Level big shot!"

The two Tiger Level Priests shifted their gaze slightly to the black-robed figure standing behind them, their faces turning pale, too frightened to move.

The other subordinates also had drastic changes in their expressions, panic-stricken and in disarray as they cried out, "Run!"

The black-robed figure didn’t move, but the environment around him whirled with gusts of wind and debris.

The eight fleeing Wolf Levels were swept back like dandelions in the wind, crashing to the ground in disarray.

"Spare us, mighty Elephant Level being, this wasn’t our doing, it was like this when we arrived!" The crowd was extremely nervous.

They glanced at the black-robed figure, unable to see his face clearly, but noted his tattered garments and the wounds and bloodstains, indicating he had been through a fierce battle.

Combining this with the fact that two people had fallen from the sky, they realized they might have become entangled in a struggle between powerhouses, hence they claimed the situation had nothing to do with them.

"Sigh, tell me where the young girl is, and I’ll let you go," the black-robed figure said indifferently.

Naturally, he was Wan Kai. After evading Fujihara Tomohiro, he rapidly followed the trajectory of the flight here.

Wan Kai was fast and adept at tracking, quickly reaching the scene.

He could obviously recognize the pile of rotten flesh as Gao Xin; when Fujihara Tomohiro’s terrifying blow landed, although he had reacted in time to mitigate it, the aftermath still blasted Gao Xin into this state.

However, his main objective was to rescue Gao Shu. If it weren’t for Gao Xin saving Gao Shu before escaping, and both of them being in critical danger, he would not have exposed himself.

"What young girl? We never saw any young girl," the two Priests responded simultaneously, sweating profusely.

"Hm?" Wan Kai’s tone deepened, "I don’t have time to waste with you."

"The two of them fell together, how could there be only one left?"

The two Priests insisted they hadn’t seen any young girl, continuously recounting what they encountered but concealing the existence of Gao Shu.

They only spoke of seeing the pile of flesh and the divine gun, and out of fear that the flesh would come back to life, they did their best to dismember it, without sighting any girl.

Wan Kai too had seen the situation upon his arrival, but it didn’t make sense that Gao Shu would have awakened and left on her own. Had she not noticed that the rotten flesh wasn’t completely dead yet?
