Chapter 60: Full firepower, clearing the boss monster in ten seconds!

The Void Predator does not increase its health value by devouring non-boss creatures,

but the damage is real.

True damage cannot be reduced by any form of mitigation.

Even if a tank professional had another life, they couldn't withstand this bite from the Predator.

Compared to the Predator, as Li Yao’s main chess piece, the Void Mantis had already taken the lives of 4 professionals.

For the remaining few, it was only a matter of time.

In less than a few minutes,

the professionals sent by the Yan family were lying quietly on the ground, with none surviving.

Shang Hao, accompanied by Shang Qian, walked sheepishly to Shang Shang Yana’s side.

He glanced cautiously at the three summon beasts staying behind Li Yao.

"Xiao Ya, I just thought about it; it was indeed inappropriate to leave you to deal with the Yan family professionals, so we decided to stay and help you deal with the enemies."

"These Yan family people are truly guilty of death, actually attacking our Shang family."

"When we get out, we must inform the family head!"

Shang Shang Yana ignored Shang Hao.

You stayed voluntarily?

As if!

Shang Hao’s face was a bit awkward, but he still tried to persuade her: "Xiao Ya, why don't we leave the Tower of Heaven first? There’s no guarantee there aren't other Yan family professionals ambushing on the fifth floor."

"There is still some time before the Wu Kao; we can come back for the job-change mission once our Shang family is prepared."

Although Li Yao was there, Shang Hao was still afraid.

Not to mention that he had offended Li Yao before; anyone with eyes could see that Li Yao only appeared here to protect Shang Shang Yana.

If there really were Yan family professionals, they wouldn't even know how they died!

"No need."

Shang Shang Yana shook her head.

The Tower of Heaven has entry restrictions; Yan Qin Yue’s team was already the strongest configuration the Yan family could field at this level.

"What you want to do has nothing to do with me. Whether you go or stay, please feel free."

Shang Shang Yana was effectively showing them the door.

"Since Xiao Ya wants to continue the job-change mission, we will certainly accompany you to the end."

Shang Hao had no choice but to compromise, while simultaneously sending a party invitation to Shang Shang Yana.

As for Li Yao, he really didn't dare to invite him now.

From beginning to end, Li Yao had never put these three in his eyes; at this moment, he had already continued walking forward.

The kill mission for the fourth floor hadn't been completed yet.

"I said, it has nothing to do with me."

Shang Shang Yana had a gentle personality, but she was, after all, a child of a major family and had her own decisiveness.

Whether it was offending Li Yao or the way they acted when she was in danger just now,

everything proved that these few were not the right people for the Shang family.

Shang Shang Yana took small steps, following Li Yao’s pace.

At the same time,

[Professional Chess Player invites you to join the party.]

Shang Shang Yana quickly chose to confirm, as if the invitation would disappear if she were a second late.

Shang Hao looked at their backs, a flash of resentment passing through his eyes.

He immediately turned and walked toward the exit found on every floor of the Tower of Heaven.

"What are you doing?"

Shang Qian asked.

Shang Hao: "You want me to shamelessly follow them?"

"If you don't want to be shameless, I will," Shang Qian said irritably. "Sister Shang Zijin’s mission was to escort Xiao Ya to the sixth floor."

"With that Li Yao there, Xiao Ya will definitely be fine. The mission didn't say in what form we must escort her; as long as we follow, it counts as completing the mission."

"If we go back now, do you think Sister Shang Zijin is easier to talk to than Xiao Ya?"

Hearing this, Shang Hao calmed down immediately.

Recalling Shang Shang Zijin’s methods, he couldn't help but shiver.

"You're right."

"I think I can be shameless too."

Shang Mingxu: "I can too."

With no Yan family professionals in the shadows, Li Yao went all out. ===== CHAPTER 133 =====

The Tower of Heaven was like playing house; they killed everything along the way and arrived directly at the fifth floor.

The fifth floor was a valley filled with giant rocks.

Only 10 boss-level monsters would refresh here, scattered throughout the valley.

If it weren't for the fact that items don't drop inside the Tower of Heaven, it would probably be an excellent treasure-hunting spot for professionals.

Both of their kill missions were for one boss monster each.

The difficulty lay in finding the monsters in this valley.

Li Yao didn't hesitate and directly used the second equipment skill carried by the [Beast King Robe].

He summoned ten Silver Moon Wolf phantoms, which would exist for 60 seconds.

Silver Moon Wolves are very fast, and with their powerful sense of smell, ten of them acting separately could search the entire valley in 60 seconds.

Soon, a Silver Moon Wolf fed information back to Li Yao.

An ape-type boss monster was less than two hundred meters away from them.

Li Yao arrived.

The Void Mantis beat it to low health, and the Predator swallowed it in one bite.

[Killed a boss-level creature above your level, Mountain Ape King, EXP +7%]

[Void Predator completed evolutionary devouring, gained maximum health.]

Then came the second one.

Beat it to low health, then handed it over to Shang Shang Yana.

Such a brutal way of clearing the level,

Shang Shang Yana watched, dumbfounded.

Is this really the Tower of Heaven?

Why is it a bit different from what I’ve cleared before?

The three Shang family members trailing far behind swallowed their saliva in unison.

"10 seconds, one boss-level creature?"

Shang Qian was still shaken: "It’s fortunate he didn't take you to heart; otherwise, just based on your previous actions, it would be enough for you to die ten thousand times!"

Shang Mingxu: "Indeed, I’m sure, Brother Hao, you aren't as durable as the Mountain Ape King. If Li Yao wanted to kill you, it shouldn't take 10 seconds."

Shang Hao’s face was livid, but he couldn't say a word.

Not only Li Yao, but even Shang Shang Yana knew they were following behind.

Neither of them cared.

Li Yao opened the vortex leading to the sixth floor.

"The mission your sister gave me ends here."

Dissolving the party, Li Yao looked at Shang Shang Yana and said.

"Oh."

Shang Shang Yana wanted to say more, but didn't know what to say. Seeing Li Yao about to step into the vortex,

"Wait!"

"Hmm?" Li Yao turned back.

"Uh..."

"Right," Shang Shang Yana suddenly remembered something.

"The Purgatory dungeon that Li Yao opened is accessible once you reach level 20. Please make sure to hurry, Li Yao!"

After saying this, Shang Shang Yana hurriedly covered her small face.

Shang Shang Yana, oh Shang Shang Yana,

what are you saying? How could Li Yao not know about such a thing!

"Hmm? Is it open?"

Unexpectedly, Li Yao looked stunned; he had truly forgotten.

"You didn't know, Li Yao?"

"If you thought I knew, why would you say it?"
