"Hmph, playing tricks,"
Chi Mang thought it was a trick by Tu Shan Shushu and let out a cold laugh, but couldn't help but look back.
Turning his head, he saw a large slap coming straight for his face.
"Ah..."
Chi Mang was sent flying, spitting out a mouthful of broken teeth and blood.
His entire face was askew, half of his cheek a bloody mess.
Ji Mo, guided by the fox fire, forcefully eliminated all obstacles in his path and arrived in time.
"Beast, you like the taste of forcing yourself on others, don't you? I'll satisfy you."
Seeing Tu Shan Shushu's miserable state, Ji Mo's anger surged. He strode towards Chi Mang, who had fallen to the ground, grabbed his arms, and twisted them into a pretzel.
Chi Mang let out an incredibly piercing scream, roaring, "I am a direct disciple of Chi Di. If you dare to injure me like this, you will die a terrible death. I will flay you alive and eat your flesh piece by piece."
"Still tough-mouthed, are we? Then I'll see if this part of you is tough."
Ji Mo stared at Chi Mang's crotch and slowly raised his right foot.
"Hey, what are you doing? No..."
Chi Mang was terrified, watching as Ji Mo stomped down.
Then, there was a crisp sound of an egg being crushed.
An indescribable pain instantly spread through Chi Mang's body, causing him to arch like a cooked shrimp, his gaping mouth gasping for air.
"You... you won't die well..."
Chi Mang's face contorted, his blood-red pupils fixed on Ji Mo with immense malice.
"Whether I die well or not, I don't know, but you certainly won't."
Ji Mo raised his foot again and kicked viciously.
Chi Mang's body exploded in mid-air, turning into a mist of blood.
Tu Shan Shushu stared blankly at the scene, her hatred for Ji Mo already gone.
She truly hadn't expected this scoundrel to save her in her most desperate and helpless moment.
"It's alright now. With me here, no one can harm you."
Ji Mo came before Tu Shan Shushu, tenderly wiping away the tears from her eyes, and then tore apart the iron chains binding her as if they were made of mud.
These chains were forged from immortal iron, incredibly hard, yet in Ji Mo's hands, they were as fragile as mud.
He scooped Tu Shan Shushu into his arms and walked out of the stone prison.
"Scoundrel, don't think you'll be easily forgiven just because you saved me."
Tu Shan Shushu, being stubborn, was flustered by being held so intimately by a man for the first time.
However, her body was honest, nestling in Ji Mo's arms like a kitten, her little head pressed tightly against his chest.
Listening to his strong heartbeat, her heart felt incredibly calm.
Along the way, there were only the mangled corpses of various pythons.
Ji Mo, in his effort to save her, had gone on a killing spree, eliminating all the guards.
Tu Shan Shushu was deeply moved, thinking that this was perhaps the legendary act of a man's rage for a beauty. Her gaze towards Ji Mo softened considerably.
But then, her body stiffened.
She could clearly feel an unruly hand sneakily stroking her tail.
"Lecher, you shameless rogue."
Her pretty face instantly flushed crimson.
Men were indeed all bad, appearing decent on the outside but lecherous at heart, always looking to take advantage.
"My hand slipped."
Ji Mo's old face reddened, forcing an excuse for himself.
It wasn't that his self-control was insufficient, but rather that the fluffy tail felt incredibly good to the touch.
The two had just exited the stone prison.
They felt a gust of腥风, and rolling demonic energy surged towards them like a tide.
A colossal python, carrying boundless killing intent, approached at extreme speed.
Chi Di had placed a restriction on Tu Shan Shushu. Sensing the restriction inexplicably disappear, he knew something had happened and rushed over immediately.
"How dare you attempt a jailbreak!"
Seeing the guards of the Chi Lian tribe lying in pools of blood, and Tu Shan Shushu rescued by a young man, Chi Di was furious.
Upon seeing the enormous red python, Ji Mo's first reaction was not fear, but an uncontrollable urge to lick his lips.
He had never eaten such a large snake before and wondered how it would taste.
Back in the Xuan Ling Realm, he had eaten all sorts of wild game, living a very comfortable life.
But after ascending to the Xian Ling Realm, the Void Sword Sect was poor, and he hadn't eaten anything decent. His craving had been unbearable for a long time.
Chi Di was stunned. Not only was this human not afraid of him, but he was also drooling!
Was he being too arrogant, not taking him seriously at all?
Tu Shan Shushu did not have such a good disposition. Her face was pale, and she struggled to get down from Ji Mo's embrace, saying anxiously, "I'll try to stop him. You escape quickly."
She didn't know Ji Mo's strength and only wanted to prevent him from falling into danger, intending to hold off Chi Di herself so Ji Mo could escape.
"Don't be afraid, it's just a snake. After I kill him, I'll make some snake soup for you to nourish your body."
Ji Mo comforted Tu Shan Shushu. To prevent her from struggling, he took the opportunity to grab her fluffy tail.
Tu Shan Shushu let out a soft whimper, her body instantly going limp. That damned scoundrel was definitely taking advantage of her. Didn't he know that a fox's tail couldn't be touched casually?
"Snake soup?"
Chi Di was so angry his lungs were about to explode.
He had always been the one to devour other creatures. Now, a mere youngster dared to say he would kill him and make him into snake soup for nourishment. It was simply too arrogant.
"Die for me."
Chi Di, unable to tolerate being looked down upon by an ant, roared at the sky.
His upper body stood upright, his monstrous maw opened wide, and countless runes bloomed within his mouth, dazzling and brilliant.
Immediately.
Different colored orbs of light erupted from his mouth.
The first orb was red, with raging flames.
The second orb was accompanied by thunder, carrying immense power.
The third orb was as black as ink, exuding terrifying might!
...
Chi Di spat out seven terrifying orbs of light in succession, whistling towards them, intending to blast Ji Mo and Tu Shan Shushu into smithereens.
Ji Mo couldn't dodge. He held Tu Shan Shushu tightly, turned his body, and prepared to withstand the attack with his powerful physique.
He was confident in his physical body, having been electrocuted by the system for so many years, making him sufficiently robust.
The seven orbs of light were terrifying and exploded one after another, turning into violent energy, aiming to turn Ji Mo into ashes.
However.
Something incredible happened.
As this energy approached Ji Mo, it inexplicably dissipated, like a stone sinking into the sea, causing no ripples.
This powerful divine ability, capable of instantly killing any being below the Golden Immortal realm, failed to inflict any damage on Ji Mo.
"Invulnerable to all methods? No, that's impossible."
Chi Di was immensely shocked but quickly forced himself to calm down.
He believed that the opponent might possess some special treasure that allowed him to resist his magical attacks.
If that was the case, then he would crush this brat with his own formidable body.
"Watch as I smash you into a pulp."
Chi Di raised his tail and whipped it fiercely.
Ji Mo heard the whistling wind and sensed the incoming attack. He casually reached out and easily grabbed Chi Di's tail.
Chi Di was dumbfounded. His full-power strike could easily shatter a mountain range.
Now, he was being held by an ant he didn't even take seriously, and blocked with one hand!
Then, something even more terrifying happened.
Chi Di felt an unimaginable force emanating from his tail. His massive body was lifted into the air, swung by Ji Mo, and smashed violently towards the ground.
