The Ancient Godly Monarch
Chapter 67: Falling

Logan was currently fighting against the 5th scale Fish-Scale Python that coiled around the Blood Ember Tree. After noticing the arrival of Qin Wentian's party, he hurriedly exclaimed, “Brothers of the Academy, please help us! Python is very difficult to deal with. "

Qin Wentian had caused a commotion when he first joined the Star Emperor Academy, and as such, there were many students who knew him. Not only that, Logan had personally witnessed the fight between Qin Wentian and Murong Feng, so he knew that the martial prowess Qin Wentian possessed was several times stronger when compared to a cultivator of the same level.

"Should we help?" Zero asked. Right now, although the situation looked bad for Logan and his group, it was not too bad that they would lose the battle that quickly. The chances of victory seemed dim as Logan fought alone against a 5th level python. Both the man and the snake were covered with injuries.

If the situation continued, it would definitely end in defeat for Logan and his party. The reason why they lasted so long was because of the effort made by Logan, who temporarily pressed the Fish Scale Python that coiled around the tree.

“The crucial point is the 5th level python that guards the Blood Bucket Fruits. As long as we suppress it, Logan will be free to join his party and slowly clear the rest of the lower Fish Scale Pitons easily.”Fan Le whisper.

Qin Wentian's eyes blinked. If they offered their help easily, it would probably face some problems when it came time to distribute the Blood Bucket Fruit.

The human heart is difficult to predict, especially when the treasure in question is the precious Blood Bucket Fruit. Regarding the dangerous human heart, Qin Wentian had previously experienced it head-on.

"Little bastard, come here." Qin Wentian chanted in a low voice. Instantly, a white blur flashed, leaping into Qin Wentian's embrace. Qin Wentian whispered a few words before putting Little Rascal to the ground, as he dashed away.

"Zero." Qin Wentian turned his gaze towards Zero.

"Yes?" Zero Exclamations.

"You need to get out of here temporarily, I'm afraid you'll soon be in danger if you stay." After hearing Qin Wentian's words, the expression on Zero's face grew unsightly. Such a precious spiritual fruit was in front of him, yet Qin Wentian had the courage to ask him to leave at this moment. Seeing this, Zero's imagination inevitably went wild.

"If we have a dispute with Logan and his party later, it will be difficult to protect you." Qin Wentian explained. However, that unsightly expression still remained on Zero's face. He did not even stop to say goodbye, as he turned around, slowly walking away.

Seeing Zero's reaction, Qin Wentian could not help but shake his head. The words she added as an explanation had been discarded by someone she sincerely wanted to help. Not everyone is as easy as Fan Le. Although he had fought together with Zero for a few days, and even thought that they had developed a certain friendship, it seemed that Qin Wentian was overestimating the depth of their relationship.

Zero's fighting ability was relatively weak. Regardless of whether it faced a python or a Logan party member, he would be harmed. If he remained here, it would be difficult for Qin Wentian and Fan Le to protect him. And thus, for Zero's own safety, Qin Wentian asked Zero to leave first. But who knew that Zero would misinterpret his intentions so quickly?

"They can't last much longer" whispered Fan Le, pulling Qin Wentian out of his mind. Logan slowly gave ground as he became distressed by the tier 5 python. If they did not step up now, the other students of the Star Emperor Academy would soon be in danger.

"Teman-teman, jika kita mati di sini, kalian tidak akan memiliki kesempatan untuk mendapatkan Buah Ember Darah. Mari kita gabungkan kekuatan kita bersama. Dengan cara ini, kita masih memiliki secercah harapan. Kita bisa membelah buahnya nanti setelah kita mengalahkan binatang ini. "Logan berteriak pada Qin Wentian dan Fan Le. Dalam krisis seperti itu, kedua kekuatan mereka akan mampu memiringkan timbangan sesuai keinginan mereka.

Qin Wentian also understood what Logan was saying. If Logan and his group were to die, Fan Le's strength and strength would also not be enough to obtain the Blood Bucket Fruit.

"Fatty, don't go all out. Let's hold some of our cards. "Qin Wentian whispered as his body moved, running forward. In the instant Qin Wentian dashed out, Fan Le had already released his bow-type Astral Soul and resplendently shot out many astral arrows. As a long-range fighter, Fatty was an expert in mass control.

A truly powerful archer could kill from 1,000 miles away without leaving a trace.

Fan Le's arrow did not have enough strength to break through the scale of the lower Fish-Scale Pitons. Therefore, he aimed at the eyes. The angle from which he shot the arrow was tilted at a certain rate, resulting in the snake's eyes becoming explosive, instantly saving a battle that was about to end was extremely bad.

Qin Wentian had already arrived in front of the level 5 Fish-Scaled Python. At such a close distance, he could feel that the power of this python exceeded that of a human with a cultivation base at the 5th level of the Artery Circulation.

Looking at the approaching Qin Wentian, the python spat out a wisp of poisonous mist. Qin Wentian quickly held his breath, and at the next moment, the python's tail swept out, crashing directly towards Qin Wentian.

"Boom." Qin Wentian stepped hard on the ground, narrowly avoiding the tail of the Python. As the tail swept past him, he quickly got into position and continued running towards the large python.

"Ruler." A Diamond Trail smashed into the python's stomach, causing it to howl furiously. Lowering his head and opening his jaw, the python's neck shot forward in an attempt to devour Qin Wentian.

The three Astral Arrows instantly whistled through the air and appeared out of nowhere, piercing through the eyes of the giant python. And at the same time, the Axan-type Astral Soul Logral shone with a brilliant light when the Astral Axe appeared in his hand. Grabbing the Astral Axe with a roar of rage, Logan leapt through the air, moving at lightning-fast speed, with the aim of cutting down the python's weakness: an area 7 inches below its head.

Seeing the python's jaw approaching, Qin Wentian quickly increased the number of steps he made on the ground. The extremely faint and almost invisible Garuda mark on his back lit up when he activated the movement technique, making his body as light as a swallow. Qin Wentian's body turned into a blur from the shadows, gracefully dodging. Even though his jaw was lunging down, it only hit empty air.

In the previous example when he executed the Garuda Movement Technique, Qin Wentian had a strong feeling that his current mastery had reached the Skill Level.

"Kill it!" Qin Wentian shouted furiously as he sent out a palm strike. His Rotating Sea Trail emitted a terrifying pressure, instantly crushing the tier 5 python on its head.

The enormous body of the python trembled as it struggled frantically. However, soon after, it slumped to the ground, dying.

"Hu ...." Logan took a deep breath and smiled towards Qin Wentian. "Thank you for the help. Now, let's kill another low-level python. "

Qin Wentian nodded in agreement. After the death of this tier 5 python, the rest of the snake did not pose much of a threat. Qin Wentian and Fan Le quickly merged their powers with the members of Logan's group, and together they easily cleared the remaining snakes.

"Haha." Logan laughed loudly as he looked towards Qin Wentian. “You are indeed the top ranked student among the new generation. Qin Wentian, it's all thanks to you. Otherwise, we should try a little more to solve the small problem back then. "

“Little more effort? The little thing that supports them? ”Seeing Logan's casual laughter, Qin Wentian's eyebrows, twitching involuntarily. His eyes gleamed with a sharp light, which reflected on the smile plastered on his face. He was no longer that innocent and innocent young man from then on.

"Qin Wentian, to thank you for your contribution, I will gracefully lead and reward you with the demon core of the python. They are very valuable and will be able to get a good price if sold. This is all for you. ”Logan spoke in a way that seemed very generous, but his words sounded very ludicrous in the ears of Qin Wentian and Fan Le.

Lead to award it?

Were it not for his efforts and Fan Le, Logan and his party members would have died in the Dark Forest.

Although Qin Wentian did not claim praise for his help, Logan's words clearly meant that he treated them as fools.

“Hmm, I'm not interested in this demon core. Why don't I take the lead and give it to you instead? "Hearing Qin Wentian's reply, Logan narrowed his eyes as they flickered with a cold light.

"You guys did help us to solve a small problem back then, so there was no need to stand at the ceremony with us. Alright, if you don't want the core, I'll take the lead and give you the Blood Bucket Fruit instead. "Laughing, Logan approached the Blood Bucket Tree. The members of his group followed, leaving Qin Wentian and Fan Le behind.

"Seven of them, one in level 4 and the other in level 3 Arterial Circulation. They're a bit hard to deal with. ”Fan Le with low tone

"Wait" Qin Wentian called out.

Logan and the others turned their heads as they asked, "What's wrong?"

"Before, we saved your life. We should be the ones to decide the distribution ratio about the Blood Bucket Fruit. ”Qin Wentian calmly replied.

"Is that so?" A cold light flickered in Logan's eyes as he contemplated the surroundings. Turning his gaze back towards Qin Wentian, he smiled, "Since this is the case, we should show 'thank you' for 'thank you' for saving our lives."

As his voice faded, the members of his party had already surrounded the two of them. Although the academy held Qin Wentian in respect, no one could trace Qin Wentian's death to him if Qin Wentian died in the Dark Forest.

"Am I right to say that if, hypothetically, two bodies suddenly appeared, those corpses would soon be eaten by starving demonic beasts, leaving no trace behind?" Logan no longer covered up the killing intent in his eyes. In order to obtain the spiritual fruit, he had slaughtered some of his original party members, leaving only these seven members.

To him, Logan felt it was already very generous for him to reward Qin Wentian with one Blood Bucket Fruit. Who knew that some people who preferred to refuse the toast offered, chose to drink punishment wine instead?

Since that was the case, killing Qin Wentian would be the best, because that way there would be a greater number of spiritual fruits that would be divided among them.

"i think so, yeah." Even before his voice faded, Qin Wentian's body flickered as he erupted into motion, turning into a blur of shadow.

Previously, when he had avoided the devil python tailstrike, Qin Wentian's mastery of the Garuda movement technique had reached the Skilled Level.

"Thud!" A loud voice echoed. Qin Wentian had already arrived in front of a cultivator at the 3rd level of the Artery Circulation. The speed of his movements caused everyone to be dumbfounded.

Just when their bodies touched, Qin Wentian had returned to his original position. Confused, Logan's party members only saw a hole in their comrade's chest. Qin Wentian had extinguished the life of his target with a single strike, breaking the heart of his target into bloody pulp.

“Cultivation is certainly difficult, but since there are so many Blood Bucket Fruits, we can divide the fruit evenly among us. Why should you force the situation in such a way? "When Qin Wentian released his Astral Souls, killing intent could be seen flaming in his eyes.

TN Note: the Chinese proverb, a snake's weakness is 7 inches below its head. ⁇ ⁇ ⁇ (tl directly) – hit snake hit 7 inch. Which means if you want to kill a snake, aim 7 inches below its head.
