CHAPTER 98: CHAPTER 98: KILLING AND ARSON BRING A GOLDEN BELT

After Lei Yao landed a strike, he gave his opponent no chance to catch their breath, his fist as large as a sandbag poured down on the Blood Tiger Beast like raindrops.

Facing Lei Yao’s onslaught, the Blood Tiger Beast had no power to retaliate, it could only let out pained howls to vent its suffering.

The intense pain drove it nearly insane, it swung its broken claw suddenly to force Lei Yao back, then immediately retreated to the side of the hooded man.

The hooded man’s expression suddenly changed when he saw this. Instead of feeding an elixir pill to the Blood Tiger Beast, he turned and fled.

At that moment, the Blood Tiger Beast opened its massive jaws and bit the hooded man’s right leg.

The hooded man felt excruciating pain from his right leg and let out a terrified scream.

"Don’t eat me, I’m your master, you damned beast."

No matter how the hooded man cursed, the Blood Tiger Beast showed no sign of letting go, instead, it shook its head and tore off the hooded man’s right leg.

It chewed on the flesh and blood, and crimson blood trickled from the corner of its mouth.

After swallowing the hooded man’s flesh, its wounds showed signs of healing.

The hooded man let out screams like a slaughtered pig, his eyes filled with terror as he looked at the Blood Tiger Beast.

He knew very well that the Blood Tiger Beast had started to backfire.

Chu Chen saw this and said in a deep voice, "Lei Yao, stop it quickly."

It’s not that Chu Chen didn’t want to kill the hooded man, but he didn’t want the Blood Tiger Beast to continue healing its wounds.

Lei Yao let out a low growl and charged up again.

Helpless, the Blood Tiger Beast had to abandon the hooded man and flee into the distance.

However, its right claw was injured and it couldn’t run fast, within only a few breaths, it was blocked by Lei Yao.

This time Lei Yao struck more fiercely, his fists like lightning aimed directly at the Blood Tiger Beast’s left claw.

With the sound of bone cracking, the Blood Tiger Beast’s left claw was also crippled, leaving it no chance of a comeback.

Seeing this, Chu Chen finally relaxed his tense heart.

He withdrew his gaze and looked at the hooded man still wailing.

"I wonder if you have awakened your talent," Chu Chen muttered to himself.

He took out a dagger from the Space Necklace and walked towards the hooded man.

At this moment, the hooded man also sensed Chu Chen approaching. When he saw Chu Chen holding a dagger, his eyes were full of fear.

"Don’t kill me, I can tell you many secrets."

Upon hearing this, Chu Chen immediately stopped his steps and said with some curiosity, "Oh? What other secrets do you have? Let’s hear them."

The hooded man replied with a forced smile, "Our Blood God Sect has not left Celestial Star City, and soon there will be big movements?"

"What big movements, hurry up and say it."

Upon hearing this, the hooded man laughed and said, "Don’t be anxious, let me explain slowly."

At this moment, the hooded man silently slipped his right hand into his sleeve.

"Our Blood God Sect is preparing to hunt the geniuses of Celestial Star City again." After saying this, the hooded man intended to pull out his right hand, but before he could take the next step, he found that a dagger appeared in his heart.

The hooded man looked at the dagger, then at Chu Chen, his eyes filled with disbelief.

Seeing this, Chu Chen sneered, "Do you think I would believe what you say? How naive."

In fact, when the hooded man threw out the bait, Chu Chen had seen through the opponent’s plot, but he didn’t expose it and instead played along.

Chu Chen’s purpose was the same as the hooded man’s, to make the other party lower their guard and then seize the opportunity to strike.

The hooded man was a disciple of the Blood God Sect, even if the other party had lost a leg, Chu Chen dared not be careless, and no one knew what tricks the other party might have.

Killing for the first time, Chu Chen didn’t feel nauseous, nor did he experience any physical discomfort.

Perhaps his heart had long been numbed by seeing so much blood, or maybe because he was killing a bad person, he didn’t feel any guilt.

Looking at the lifeless hooded man, Chu Chen did not let his guard down; instead, he summoned the Slaughter Atlas to check.

When he saw the hooded man appear in the Slaughter Atlas, he finally relaxed completely.

The reason Chu Chen wanted to personally kill the hooded man was for two purposes.

First, the hooded man had seen Lei Yao’s second talent, which absolutely could not be leaked; otherwise, the consequences would be dire.

Not to mention what attitude the Alliance might have towards him, organizations like the Blood God Sect would certainly be very interested in him.

Second, after Chu Chen broke through to the Soul Warrior Level, he would also gain a second talent.

However, Chu Chen guessed that his second talent could only come from humans.

But he’s not like those inhuman and ghostly beings of the Blood God Sect who harm innocent compatriots, he couldn’t bring himself to do it.

Therefore, he could only pin his hopes on the hooded man.

Chu Chen turned his gaze to the hooded man’s talent and was immediately delighted.

The hooded man’s talent was F-level Wind of Recovery, which could increase recovery speed by ten percent.

This talent, like Heaven Rewards Diligence, seemed quite mediocre.

However, Chu Chen had a different opinion; the Wind of Recovery improved not only the recovery speed of Star Power but also included the recovery speed of stamina, life force, and soul power.

If the level of Wind of Recovery was enhanced, its recovery speed would be terrifying, turning his Guardian Beast into a tireless slaughtering machine.

Moreover, when his Guardian Beast used its trump cards, it could last longer. If it were upgraded to S-level or even surpassed S-level, could Frenzy and Beast Soul Power be permanently activated?

Of course, this was just Chu Chen’s beautiful fantasy.

However, the Wind of Recovery was indeed very suitable for Lei Yao, and it also greatly helped other Guardian Beasts, especially for a Beast Master like Chu Chen. To become stronger, he had to continuously kill, so fighting was indispensable, and getting injured was naturally a common occurrence.

After putting away the Slaughter Atlas, Chu Chen walked towards the hooded man.

He used the dagger to carefully reveal the man’s sleeve and found that a pitch-black dagger was hidden within his sleeve.

Upon seeing this, Chu Chen could not help but frown. This dagger was obviously poisoned, and even a scratch from it would likely be fatal.

Chu Chen carefully pushed the dagger aside, then pulled open the man’s hood to reveal a pale, gaunt teenager.

Although he still looked like a teenager, his hair had already turned gray, a result of feeding Blood Beasts.

After searching around, Chu Chen found a belt with a simple design at the youth’s waist.

Seeing this, Chu Chen’s face lit up with delight, as there was a high probability that this belt was a Space Belt.

He hurriedly untied the belt and began experimenting with it.

Two breaths later, Chu Chen almost jumped in excitement, for the belt in his hand was indeed a Space Belt. It had a space of one cubic meter inside, containing dozens of Star Treasures and over a hundred Star Cores, as well as some unknown blood-colored crystals and some unidentifiable elixir pills.

The strength of the Blood Tiger Beast was absolutely dominant in the Secret Realm, so it was no surprise that the hooded man could accumulate so many spoils.
