Beastmaster of the Ages

Chapter 3119 - Dog Biting Dog

"You'll even be my horse? Can I ride you as my mount?"

"Sure! I can do anything! I can even pleasure you and send you to heaven! I... I can do it now!" Jiang Xiu'er's tears flowed nonstop as she tore away her jewelry and exposed herself.

"I'm sorry, but you've been too many people's horse. I don't feel like riding you anymore." Tianming swung his sword and cut into her head just as she thought that her seductive wiles had worked on him, splitting her in two and killing her!

"Aaaah! Ah! Aaaah!" A cry of regret, despair, and pain came from her cosmic chart as the last traces of her life were wiped away by Tianming. Xian Xian suppressed the moonvoid wisteria and quickly killed it.

Even after the deaths of two beastmasters, Sun Xiaoyue and Jiang Xiu'er, the bloodsoul storm continued to rage on. Yue Lanfeng and the others watched the whole thing absentmindedly.

"Sir Li is truly fierce."

"No wonder he dared to fight against four at once!"

"How forceful! The bloodsoul storm isn't affecting him in the least, either!"

They were so impressed that they would gladly have prostrated themselves to him. No doubt, they would be even more stunned if they had found out that Tianming was much younger than Sun Xiaoyue and the first red name to rise to the Fortuna Ranking.

"Now that's incredibly relieving!" Tianming felt much better after killing the two crooks, yet he felt that he hadn't finished venting yet. He hadn't forgotten what Gu Mohe had said that forced Tianming, Yue Lanfeng, and the others into the current situation of life and death in the first place. If those two were allowed to safely return to Myriadpath Valley, even if they couldn't touch Tianming, they might turn their fangs on Bluemaple Swordvalley. Though they were innocent, Tianming's choice to protect them gave them a pretense to be wiped out.

"Well, I have no choice, since you kept using them to threaten me. Hahaha!" Tianming's white hair wildly fluttered as he turned and charged toward Cang Jue and Gu Mohe in the blood path!

Cang Jue's expression turned cold. "Li Tianming, let’s negotiate."

"What's to negotiate?" The bloodsoul storm continued raging on, so it was Tianming's chance.

"Let's end this right here. Once the bloodsoul storm ends, we’ll leave. Gu Mohe and I promise not to pursue this matter and we won't assign any blame to Bluemaple Swordvalley, either. All we’ll report when we get back will be about what you did without involving them. Even though Sun Xiaoyue's parents will no doubt cause trouble for you, like House Huang, it isn’t like you're afraid of that, right?"

"You make it sound good, but I don't trust you. In fact, trusting you would be the same as endangering Bluemaple Swordvalley, got it?" Even if Yue Lanfeng and the others didn't dare to hope for Tianming to kill Cang Jue, there was definitely a risk of involving Bluemaple Swordvalley by letting him leave alive. It was much better to have them killed.

"It's going to be risky whether I let you go or not, so I might as well minimize it!" Tianming vocalized in hopes that Yue Lanfeng would understand his rationale. Killing all of them was the least risky option.

He charged straight at Gu Mohe without another word.

"Cang Jue, save me!" she cried. She and Cang Jue were still in sound mind, but that might change if they moved at all.

"Li Tianming, you can kill her! If you spare me, I can guarantee that I won't involve Bluemaple Swordvalley in this!" Cang Jue roared. "Even if I get afflicted by the bloodsoul storm, you won't be able to kill me! Let's work together! It'll be less risky if you leave me alone alive instead of the two of us!"

Even though Tianming had no ties with Bluemaple Swordvalley, he’d worked together with them for a time and they were linked in some way by fate. He wouldn't be able to accept so many lives being taken on his account. He was also truly disgusted by the behavior of the other Myriadpath Valley disciples, especially how Cang Jue was willing to abandon Gu Mohe just like that.

"Cang Jue! How could you?!" Gu Mohe could scarcely believe what she had heard. Before entering the den, that man had seemed honest and gentlemanly, almost as if he could be counted on for life. Yet he was willing to use her life as a bargaining chip simply to lower the risk that Tianming felt!

"Gu Mohe, if it hadn’t been for you threatening to drag Bluemaple Swordvalley into this, we wouldn't have even ended up in this state! It's all your fault at the end of the day," Cang Jue said with a smile.

Gu Mohe smirked. "Cang Jue, how manly of you. You truly are a paragon for all men in Myriadpath Valley."

Tianming found it all the more laughable. He knew that Cang Jue wanted to maintain his calm and not be affected by the bloodsoul storm. That was his best chance for survival, and a scheming man like him would be well aware of that. Even if Tianming didn't agree, he still managed to buy time. Perhaps the bloodsoul storm would end soon. He wasn't really afraid of Tianming, but he was afraid of the bloodsoul storm.

However, he had forgotten about one thing: showing that he was willing to abandon Gu Mohe proved that he was someone who would stoop to doing underhanded things to achieve his goals! How could Tianming count on someone like that not to take revenge against him after they got back? In fact, he would most likely work with House Huang to crush Tianming, and even Bluemaple Swordvalley!

Thus, Tianming wouldn't let him buy time any longer. What he didn't expect was how Gu Mohe would explode with rage.

"Cang Jue, you're afraid of the bloodsoul storm, eh? You even tried using me as a bargaining chip! Well, I'll give you what you want!" She lost it after seeing the true nature of the man. Ignoring Tianming, she charged straight at Cang Jue. The moment she moved, the bloodsoul storm seeped into her astral brain and turned her into a bloodthirsty darkfiend. However, that process still took some time, during which she was still conscious. Using all she could muster, she wanted to force Cang Jue to retaliate so that he would lose his senses to the bloodsoul storm as well!

Gu Mohe's totems manifested and the celestial being totems slammed straight into Cang Jue.

"You!" he roared. He had to retaliate somehow, so he had no choice but to move. But if he did, he would lose his mind!

"The dogs are biting each other," Tianming laughed as the two totemancers started fighting even without him having to instigate anything. Cang Jue had nine cosmic charts, but the level of his soul wasn't any higher than Gu Mohe's, so the two were affected by the bloodsoul storm at the same rate.
