Shan Shou grabbed Du Fei in her mindless rage.
“Why aren’t you dodging?” Thunder shouted.
Du Fei wasn’t that fast, but enough to keep him out of her reach. It made no sense how easily she caught him.
Du Fei made an OK sign, “I got it all under con-“
Pff…
And there he went, ripped to pieces before he could finish. But on the upside, he was back the next instant, safe and sound.
Shan Shou tore, Du Fei stitched.
And on and on it went.
Pff…
Pff…
His ‘death’ reached 22nd mark yet there was no blood on the floor, and he was back in one piece, per usual.
This was the advantage of the Sacred Light Physique. It patched you back no matter through what you’ve been, or how many times.
“What kind of magical art is that?” Thunder was stunned.
“I know that the eastern countries have a rich history with many arts, but never believed it…”
Shan Shou was panting now. She just didn’t have the energy to keep tearing Du Fei a new one.
Her defense was godlike but, at a core, just a mere human. It was no surprise she tired quickly. Shan Shou panted on the ground, unable to move.
Someone threw a net over her and tied her for good measure.
“What luck she knows no martial arts or magical art. Who would be able to contest her then?”
Thunder watched Shan Shou with a tremor in his heart.
“From now on, China division will have Du Fei in charge. Who do you recommend for Asia headquarters then?“
The dozen of Thunderstruck Enterprise higher ups were silent.
They all saw how only Du Fei could stop Shan Shou.
“Du Fei is strong, wise, and resourceful. He is the best choice to be in charge of Asian headquarters!“
“I agree.”
“Du Fei is the most suited.”
“Agreed.”
“Sir Thunder.”
Amids their approval, a kimono-wearing woman came to Thunder.
“I am Akita Jiro’s sister, Akita Ohara, and am in charge of the Japan division.
“I believe it is entirely inappropriate for Du Fei to be appointed as the head of Asia department. At least, from how I see it, my Japan division will never agree.”
Thunder smiled, “Miss Ohara, your brother is dead. His death has nothing to do with Du Fei. You saw it yourself. Is it that hard to accept who was stronger?
“I am also not clear what you mean by inappropriate.”
“That Du Fei is weak and has no right, unlike me!”
Akita Ohara lifted her head.
“So, you want to have a go at Du Fei?”
Akita Ohara nodded.
“Miss Ohara, don’t take this the wrong way, but I you have to admit that in the event of Du Fei winning again, won’t there be another from your division who’s going to disagree?” Akita Ohara blushed.
“I am one of the twelve strongest in Thunderstruck Enterprise. I have the power to appoint any one of you. If there are disagreements, you can take it up to the general headquarters, or just resign. But I am sure everyone here is clear of the price of resigning.
“Damn, f*ck! Again, I’m wasting time on something so boring.”
Thunder looked at his watch and was gone.
He left.
The dozen Thunderstruck Enterprise executives blinked for a second, then congratulated Du Fei.
All but Akita Ohara.
She went to her brother’s body and unsheathed her blade. It ignited and burned her brother to ashes.
Akita Ohara then went to Shan Shou and stabbed.
Thump!
The fire burned the net and nothing else. Using this chance, Shan Shou shed the net and fled.
Akita Ohara was dazed. She wanted revenge and instead let his killer get away. She never imagined Shan Shou would be so tough.
Shan Shou’s speed was unbearably slow, but no one went after her.
Who in their right mind would go when she got her strength back? To die?
Shan Shou rushed through the forest, hiding like a mountain beast.
Shan Shou whimpered and tears fell from her face.
She just sat there, crying.
“Mo Yu didn’t care about you. His death is actually a blessing.”
Li Mo appeared in front.
Shan Shou roared and struck.
She tried to lift him, but found him weighting tons.
If lifting didn’t work, then ripping, if not that then punching and kicking.
Shan Shou raved for half an hour while Li Mo stood still. He used Guard to fend off against all of her attacks.
Shan Shou sat back down, spent.
“Let me ask you again, tell me you story, or you will suffer.”
“I’ll kill you!”
Shan Shou roared.
Li Mo took out the Underworld Stone and smacked her head.
He used half of the Underworld Stone to refine God Prison, but its effect was the same as if whole.
Smack~
After hitting Shan Shou with something resembling a brick four times, Shan Shou was still unharmed.
“True God Physique sure is tough to hold out against the Underworld Stone.”
Li Mo sighed and placed Shan Shou in his God Prison.
She raged in her cell, then found her room bursting into flames.
This fire came from the natural fire crystal, leagues above the flimsy sparks Akita Ohara handled before. In this fire, Shan Shou wailed as she huddled up. All while her skin burned.
“You are all evil. Master, save me!”
“You still won’t talk?”
Shan Shou was silent.
She was very stubborn.
Li Mo frowned and reduced the flames’ power.
“If you don’t know when to quit, you will only suffer, Shan Shou. Don’t think for a second I have no way to deal with you. You brought this on yourself.”
Li Mo appeared before Shan Shou as his soul.
Li Mo placed his hand on her head.
Shan Shou’s body was the True God Physique, but her soul was very weak. She had no way to fend off the Soul Search.
An endless stream of memories flashed through Li Mo’s eyes.
“Monster~”
“Demon~”
“Freak~”
“Abomination~”
“We should burn this monster!”
“Burn her, burn her!”
