Cosmic Professional Gladiator Novel - Chapter 413

Translator: CKtalon
Demon Vanquishers wanted to refine demons. However, demons had their own obsessions and weren’t willing to fight the Demon Vanquisher head-on.

“The only person in Cheng’an Prefecture who can confidently get rid of him is Mountain Lord.” The red-shirted woman shook her head. “As you know, Mountain Lord ignored the three letters we wrote him.”

“Mountain Lord isn’t going to bother about us?” the old woman asked. “He handed all the Dongming Mountain matters to you back then. You should step in at the critical moment.”

“Perhaps he doesn’t care about the deaths of a few Earth Demons.” The red-shirted woman was very helpless.

She was the Demon supreme-ruler that Mountain Lord Dongming trusted the most. She had always been in charge of the various matters in Cheng’an Prefecture, but she couldn’t influence the Mountain Lord’s decision.

!!

Bang! Bang!

A dull boom sounded.

It surprised the red-shirted woman and the old woman. They could sense the mighty and unyielding lightning.

“It’s a Demon Vanquisher!” Just as the two of them rushed out of the pavilion, they saw a youth in a starlight robe arrive from afar. He had a vertical eye between his brows and was already staring at the red-shirted woman.

“What a powerful demonic aura. You’re one of the four Demon supreme-rulers, Blood-Robed Demon supreme-ruler?”

“Four Demon supreme-rulers?” The corners of the red-shirted woman’s eyes twitched. There were clearly five Demon supreme-rulers a few months ago, but they became four because of the Demon Vanquisher in front of her.

“Demon Vanquisher Wu Ming, retreat quickly. Otherwise, I’ll report it to the Mountain Lord. When the Mountain Lord personally attacks you, it’ll be too late for you to regret it,” the red-shirted woman said coldly.

“I’ve already killed so many Earth Demons; does Mountain Lord Dongming not know?” Xu Jingming was surprised.

The red-shirted woman’s expression turned nasty.

Of course, she had already reported it, but the mountain lord didn’t care.

“Hmph.” With a cold snort, a red beam shot at Xu Jingming from the red-shirted woman’s sleeve.

“Retreat from Dongming Mountain,” the red-shirted woman ordered her demons as she launched a sneak attack. Of course, many demons had already begun hiding before Blood-Robed Demon supreme-ruler gave the order.

Buzz!!!

An incomparably huge golden net completely enveloped the entire mountain. Nearly half of those who escaped the fastest were enveloped by the golden net.

His supreme power, Inescapable Net, had long reached lesser mastery after a few months. It was much stronger than when he dealt with Demon supreme-ruler Green Lake.

“Ahhh.”

Under the envelopment of the golden Inescapable Net, some weak demons seemed to be burned to ashes the moment they touched the net, leaving only wisps of intrinsic demonic aura.

Only the red-shirted woman and a stocky black man struggled in the golden net. The red beam in the form of a sneak attack revealed its true form—it was a hairpin.

“Break!” The sword at the red-shirted woman’s waist unsheathed and struck the golden net, but it only caused some damage to the rope. As for the other dark-skinned man, he was completely restrained by the rope and couldn’t budge.

How is this possible? The red-shirted woman found it unbelievable. She struck out with the sharp sword in her hand several times in an instant to sever a rope, but the starlight flowing through the rope completely mended it.

Xu Jingming held his spear and stabbed the dark-skinned man who had just reached the Earth Demon realm to death before charging at the red-shirted woman.

“Master is finished.”

The old woman—who was fast enough—had just turned into mist and fled from the mountain when a huge golden net descended and enveloped the entire mountain.

The old woman felt lingering fear when she saw the demons enveloped by the golden net die one after another. Even the red-shirted woman was in a desperate situation.

“Run! Run! Run!” The old woman and the other demons fled in all directions.

Why is this net so difficult to deal with? The red-shirted woman cleaved through the rope with a few more strikes, only to encounter Xu Jingming charging over with his spear.

Boom!

As the spear came thrusting over, four-colored lightning entangled in the sky and struck the red-shirted woman, seriously injuring her.

“What?” The red-shirted woman was alarmed and furious.

According to the intelligence, Demon Vanquisher Wu Ming was best at close combat spearmanship. He had relied on a Dharmic spear to kill Demon supreme-ruler Green Lake, but this time—be it the golden Inescapable Net or the Bolt spell, their might exceeded her imagination.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

With the golden Inescapable Net binding her, the four-colored lightning smote her. The red-shirted woman endured the blast with great difficulty amidst serious injuries.

“If you kill me, the Mountain Lord will definitely avenge me.” The red-shirted woman swung her sword to block the spear as she roared angrily via voice transmission.

Pu!

The spear stabbed mercilessly into the red-shirted woman’s chest, and terrifying lightning erupted!

In the past few months, Xu Jingming had already imprinted the runes of Quintstrike on his spear. This strike completely obliterated the red-shirted woman’s demon body, leaving only a wisp of intrinsic demonic aura.

Mountain Lord will definitely avenge you? I was afraid that he would keep hiding. Xu Jingming took out a black jade bottle and put away the wisps of intrinsic demonic aura on the mountain.

This Dongming Mountain lair that led the entire Cheng’an Prefecture’s demons was razed to the ground by Xu Jingming.

Blood-Robed Demon supreme-ruler was dead! Nearly half of the demons died, and the other demons fled in panic.

…

In a mansion in the prefecture capital.

An old woman sat in the hall in sorrow and despair.

When have we demons ever been so downtrodden in Cheng’an Prefecture? One Demon Vanquisher hunted down demons successively, and Mountain Lord ignored our fates, the old woman thought.

“Madam Liao,” the plump man comforted, “we’ve done everything we can. You’ve also reported the news to the Mountain Lord! How Demon Vanquisher Wu Ming will be dealt with depends on Mountain Lord’s decision.”

“Master is dead.” The old woman shook her head. “Two of the five Demon supreme-rulers are dead, but Mountain Lord still doesn’t care.”

Whoosh.

A silent figure appeared.

The old woman and the plump man were surprised as they looked at the black-robed man in front of them.

“Mountain Lord.” The old woman was pleasantly surprised and immediately bowed respectfully.

The plump man immediately bowed. “Greetings, Mountain Lord.”

“Red Sleeves Envoy, is what you wrote in your letter true?” Wang Cheng asked calmly. “Is your master really dead?”

“Yes, I fled several kilometers away. When I looked back, I saw Master being stabbed in the chest by Demon Vanquisher Wu Ming, and her demon body was obliterated. I could only flee with all my might,” the old woman said. “The only thing on my mind was to report everything to Mountain Lord.”

“Little Guan is also dead.” Wang Cheng fell silent.

He once had a relationship with Blood-Robed Demon supreme-ruler, Guan Muyu. With his support, she managed to genuinely manage the entire Dongming Mountain.

“Where is Demon Vanquisher Wu Ming?” Wang Cheng asked calmly, but his calm tone had a pressure that made the old woman and the plump man shudder.

“Mountain Lord,” the stout man reported, “I’ve also been searching for information on Demon Vanquisher Wu Ming, but he hasn’t appeared in the prefecture capital in the past three months.”

“He should’ve been outside the city the entire time,” the old woman said. “His traces have been found to span more than 500 kilometers around the prefecture capital.”

Wang Cheng frowned slightly.

“Continue tracking Wu Ming,” Wang Cheng instructed. “Report immediately once you determine his location.”

“Yes, Mountain Lord,” the old woman and the plump man replied in unison.

Whoosh.

Wang Cheng silently disappeared from the house. He appeared in the sky above the prefecture capital.

In the dark night, Wang Cheng looked down at the entire city, his eyes dark and cold. I can sense my anger. I haven’t had such emotions in a long time. I have a feeling that if my obsession absorbs intense emotions, I should be able to take another step forward and break through to become a Heaven Demon!

The will of the world tells me that as long as I become a Heaven Demon, it will be a vital transformation for me. Wang Cheng carefully surveyed the top Demon Vanquishers in the city before silently disappearing.

…

Xu Jingming didn’t return to the prefecture capital. He even went offline after he refined Blood-Robed Demon supreme-ruler

There were two ways to go offline. The first was to have AI control the body. It could speak and do things normally, but one couldn’t cast spells. The second was to completely disappear! One could completely disappear by going offline if the natives were oblivious to it.

At this moment, he had completely disappeared.

After joining the Primordial Research Institute for a year, I’m finally about to break through to Lv. 8. Xu Jingming was also filled with joy, so he naturally put aside Demon Vanquishing World and focused on breaking through.
