Chapter 818

~5 min read 950 words

Although he narrowly avoided Yu Mo's attack, the strikes from Yuan Cang and Wang Man arrived right on schedule; this time he couldn't dodge and was hit hard.

Instantly, this Ape Mountain ancestor vomited a mouthful of blood, and a large hole was blasted into his chest by Yuan Cang and the other.

If not for the overly powerful vitality of the Demon Emperor Realm, this blow would have been enough to kill him outright.

But even so, this Ape Mountain ancestor was already at the end of his rope and could not hold on for much longer.

His aura withered once more, and after holding on for another hour or so, he still could not escape the fate of being slaughtered by Yu Mo and the other two.

Although this last Ape Mountain ancestor wanted to launch a desperate counterattack before death, hoping for mutual destruction.

But with a gap in both numbers and strength, the desperate counterattack had no effect.

Even though he severely injured Wang Man, he failed to achieve mutual destruction.

Coughing up several large mouthfuls of blood, Wang Man did not attack again, but retreated to the side to recuperate.

Only Yu Mo and Yuan Cang, coordinating with Jiangshan and Peng Yun, attacked the other Ape Mountain ancestor.

By this point, this Ape Mountain ancestor knew the outcome was sealed, and after a final burst of madness, he was, unsurprisingly, slaughtered by the four of them working together.

Yu Mo was quick-witted and immediately collected the corpses of the two Demon Emperors, then cast an unkind gaze toward Jiangshan and Peng Yun.

Sensing Yu Mo's gaze, Jiangshan spoke up immediately.

"Yu Bo, wait a moment, let me finish what I have to say first."

"Speak."

"Look, we really don't have any malicious intent; from beginning to end, we were just guarding against you."

"Think about it, you suddenly came out of seclusion and even came to Confucian Saint City, how could the two of us possibly be at ease?"

After explaining with a sincere attitude, Yu Mo narrowed his eyes upon hearing Jiangshan's words.

"Then what did you hear while in Lingcheng?"

Yu Mo didn't care about the previous points at all; he only cared whether Jiangshan and the other knew about the matter regarding the boy Ye Changqing.

Facing Yu Mo's inquiry, Jiangshan fell silent, and Yu Mo's gaze grew increasingly dangerous.

After a long while, Jiangshan spoke up.

"That... does food that can increase longevity count?"

"Heh, so you really did hear it; then I cannot leave you alive."

Once these words were out, Yu Mo sneered immediately; so they had found out after all.

Seeing Yu Mo about to strike again, Jiangshan hurriedly shouted.

"Wait a moment, Yu Mo, wait a moment. I know what you are worried about, but how could the two of us possibly spread this matter? After all, Peng Yun and I are currently even more in need of longevity."

"The two of us not only have no intention of becoming enemies with your Daoyi Sect, but we even want to eat a bite of that food, so we could never be enemies."

This was absolutely Jiangshan's sincere truth; in order to increase his longevity, how could he still offend the Daoyi Sect? He would be too busy trying to curry favor.

It was precisely because of this that he and Peng Yun had never intended to fight to the death, and why they had chosen to join forces with Yu Mo and the others earlier, rather than with the two ancestors of Ape Mountain.

Everything was just for that bite of food.

Hearing Jiangshan's words, Yu Mo stopped his hand and said with a half-smile.

"You are ancestors of the Qingyun Sect, and now you want to eat the food of my Daoyi Sect?"

"Hehe, this isn't..."

Jiangshan gave a sheepish smile, while Yu Mo said with annoyance.

"Do you think that's possible?"

"No, Yu Bo, as long as it's possible, just state your requirements, my brother and I will absolutely not refuse."

In order to survive, Jiangshan was truly going all out, but this was also human nature.

Compared to an increase in longevity, in the eyes of Jiangshan and the other, any other treasure was just a passing cloud; if you lose your life, what use are treasures?

Before, there was no way, but now there was; it was like a drowning person suddenly grabbing a straw of hope, so the state of mind of Jiangshan and the other was understandable.

Looking at Jiangshan's sincere expression, Yu Mo rolled his eyes, then suddenly revealed a gentle smile.

"Do you really want to eat?"

"That's a silly question; who wouldn't want to increase their longevity?"

"Actually, it's not impossible; there is always a way for things."

"Everything is negotiable; Yu Bo, just state your requirements, everything is negotiable."

Seeing Yu Mo relent, Jiangshan said excitedly; as long as there was something to talk about, it was fine—the only fear was Yu Mo not relenting.

As for Yuan Cang and Wang Man on the side, hearing this, they were also curious why Yu Mo would say such a thing.

They are ancestors of the Qingyun Sect; you let them increase their longevity, isn't that nursing a tiger to cause trouble? Wouldn't it be better to just wait for them to die?

However, having known each other for so many years, Yuan Cang and Wang Man knew Yu Mo's personality very well; this guy was never one to suffer a loss.

Wanting to make him suffer a loss was harder than ascending to heaven, so the two didn't say much more, but waited for Yu Mo to continue.
