Chapter 164: Chapter 164: I Feel Disgusted Just Looking at You

The massive black bat swiftly descended in the desert, and atop the black bat stood three members of the Rat-man Clan. The three Rat-men looked strikingly similar to each other; though they had transformed into humanoids, their faces still resembled those of rats, with thin sharp ears, thieving brows and beady eyes, pointed mouth and cheeks, and each had a long whisker hanging down from the corners of their mouths, and trailing behind them, a long black rat tail.

"Three Nine-star Martial King Realm rat monsters," Shi Feng observed the three Rat-man Clan members and muttered to himself.

"These three are the talents of the Rat-man Clan, brothers of the same womb. When the three of them join forces, their power can reach the Realm of the Martial King," Zi Ya whispered to Shi Feng.

As soon as the three Rat-man Clan youths landed, their six rat eyes fixed lecherously on Princess Zi Ya, their obscene expressions blatantly clear on their ugly rat-like faces.

"Hehe, I heard that Princess Zi Ya went missing and the Snake-man Clan has deployed everyone to find her, and yet she crossed paths with us brothers. What a fate indeed," one of the Rat-man Clan youths said in a mocking tone.

"Wow, Princess Zi Ya, why are you with a Human Clan Pretty Boy? Could it be that your disappearance was due to eloping with a human pretty boy? Ah, alas, Princess Zi Ya, you really have no taste. A Human Clan Pretty Boy could never compare to us brothers in giving you the pleasure and joy you deserve."

"Hehehe, my second brother is absolutely right. Every member of the Human Clan is a weakling, pleasing to the eye but useless! Now that we have found Princess Zi Ya for the Snake-man Clan, we should take her back to our Rat Clan and treat her well, hehehe, we will certainly make Princess Zi Ya delighted and insatiable."

"You three shameless beasts!" Zi Ya’s pretty face was full of disgust as she shouted vehemently, "Get out of our way this instant!"

"Hehe, step aside? Oh, that won’t do. Now that we’re so fated to be with Princess Zi Ya, we must entertain her thoroughly, to not do so would be a disservice. Princess, you are our goddess in our hearts."

"You... Who would want to be your goddess! Step aside immediately, or I won’t be polite," Zi Ya scolded with a delicate voice.

"Hehehe, I just love to see Princess Zi Ya this angry. The angrier she gets, the more I want to be with her and then we can... hehehe..."

"Just like rats! Thieving brow and beady eyes – just the sight of them is disgustingly nauseating, not to mention their effeminate and creepy speaking—such words make one’s skin crawl." Shi Feng frowned as he spoke, "This abhorrent race should have been eradicated long ago, just to prevent the nausea they induce by being seen."

Shi Feng’s words caused the faces of the three Rat-man Clan youths to twist violently with anger, and a surge of rage filled them in an instant. One of the Rat-man Clan youths shouted, "You lowly Human Clan scum, how dare you insult the Rat Clan! We were planning on just beating you half to death and leaving it at that, but your foul mouth has just made you regret what’s going to happen next."

"Hmph, looking so disgusting and we can’t even comment on it," Shi Feng said with a disdainful sneer.

"Seeking death!" The three Rat-man Clan youths roared in unison, their three black rat tails swinging and lashing towards Shi Feng.

"Ah, no!" Seeing the three Rat-man Clan youths strike all at once, Zi Ya immediately let out a cry of alarm. In her eyes, she had no power to resist a combined attack from three Nine-star Martial Kings. Subconsciously believing Shi Feng to be as defenseless as she was, her body moved to shield him, prepared to unleash her seal at any moment.

"Silly girl!" Shi Feng quickly reached out with his right hand to grasp Zi Ya’s arm, pulling her behind him. Immediately, the Bloodthirsty Sword appeared in his left hand, and with a swift slash, he released three white sword shadows, cutting through the incoming black rat tails.

"Ah! Ah! Ah!" Three sharp, piercing screams rang out as three shadows flew into the air, precisely the three black rat tails that had viciously whipped towards Shi Feng, now severed by the three sword shadows he had unleashed.

"Pop! Pop! Pop!" Three rat tails fell onto the sandy ground, emitting three light sounds, followed immediately by a sizzling noise. On the scorching hot sand, the three tails were instantly roasted, giving off wisps of charred, black smoke.

Three young members of the Rat-man Clan sprayed fresh blood unceasingly from behind.

"You! You won’t die a good death! How dare you sever our tails!" one of the young Rat-men yelled fiercely.

"I will personally twist off your head!"

"Eldest brother, second brother, kill him! Kill him! I don’t want to see this despicable member of the Human Clan alive any longer."

"Hmph, looking so disgusting, I merely helped you all make some slight modifications," Shi Feng said with a cold laugh.

Immediately afterwards, Shi Feng saw the three young Rat-men radiate a ghastly black glow. One with a fist, one with claws, and one with a palm, they all struck simultaneously. Black shadows of fists, claws, and palms came one after another, densely packed like a ferocious storm, sweeping towards him. At the same time, a massive and fierce rat shadow materialized above them, baring its teeth and claws, roaring continuously, and pounced fiercely at him, its power equivalent to a full-force strike of a One-star Martial Emperor.

"Open!" Shi Feng let out a low shout. The Corrosive Evil Eye in the center of his forehead opened wide, spewing out a thick gray mist of corrosion, engulfing the black rat in the sky above. Meanwhile, with the Bloodthirsty Sword in his hand, he made a horizontal slash, sending out a half-moon shaped white Sword Qi, rushing towards the barrage of fist, claw, and palm shadows before him.

The half-moon shaped white Sword Qi was unstoppable, and beneath it, the shadows of fists, claws, and palms all shattered to pieces, then directly struck towards the middle Rat-man.

Above his head, the massive black rat under the gray mist of corrosion, its menacing shadow suddenly corroded to nothingness.

"Ah!" A wretched scream echoed in the burning hot heavens and earth as the Rat-man youth, struck by the half-moon shaped white Sword Qi, was immediately severed at the waist. His face was filled with shock and unwillingness, as well as incredible disbelief. Then his upper body slumped sideways with a "plop," falling to the ground, dead.

"Eldest brother!"

"Eldest brother!"

Seeing the middle Rat-man suddenly split into two, the other two Rat-men cried out in grief. They then noticed a large amount of fresh blood gushing from their eldest brother’s severed body, surging wildly forward.

And their eldest brother’s bisected corpse, like a deflated balloon, swiftly shriveled up, until right before their shocked eyes, what was once a plump body, suddenly became parched and withered, as if a mummy that had lost all moisture, weathered over many years.

"You! What on earth have you done to our eldest brother!" one of the Rat-men looked up at Shi Feng on the other side and said with a trembling voice; it was clear that at this moment, he was afraid of Shi Feng.

"Second brother, run!" Another Rat-man came back to his senses, his body hopping away, quickly leaping towards the black bat.
