Chapter 968: Gu Mo
Sigma_ SSins
McGee discolored. Looking at Shi Yan releasing space power to connect the formation, McGee had a gleam of irritation in his eyes.
Frowning, Shi Yan stopped his operation, flew out of the Child Formation, and steadied himself inside the grand villa. He coldly looked at the one who had just arrived.
It was a petite woman who didn鈥檛 look like she was more than eighteen years old. She had two dragon horns on her head. She wore a suit of black armor, which lingered on her healthy bronze skin. Her ruby eyes were sparkling beautifully.
The little girl had a soft and cute voice. She spoke tender words. However, she was full of energy, which wasn鈥檛 less than McGee.
"Ah!"
The girl let out a low cry. Looking at the Child formation in the hall, her ruby eyes glowed. She laughed cheerfully, looking at McGee. "Why did you bring a space teleport formation here? Hehe. McGee, you鈥檝e disappeared for a couple dozens of years. What are you playing? You father worried a lot about you. He has asked our Brutal Dragon Tribe to keep an eye on your whereabouts."
Brutal Dragon Tribe?
Shi Yan was surprised. He couldn鈥檛 help but observe the girl, feeling amazed discreetly.
The Monster Clan in Agate Star Area was a mighty clan. Although it had many branches, the two most powerful branches of Monster Clan were the Evil Dragon Tribe and the Brutal Dragon Tribe. They were the pillars of the Monster Clan.
The Brutal Dragon Tribe was another Tribe of the Monster Clan which was famous for its mighty power. The Brutal Dragon Tribe had a good relationship with the Evil Dragon Tribe. They were sustainable allies who moved and retreated together. When the Monster Clan had any issue, these two tribes would join hands and solve the problem.
The petite girl had utterly transformed, but the tremendous blood Qi from her body was significant enough for Shi Yan to recognize her identity.
Warriors of different races found it hard to reach the toughness level of their bodies. At the same time, only the Monster Clan considered body cultivating as their main path of martial art. And only the strong branches of Monster Clan could reach such a level.
"Gu Mo, why are you in Black Water Star?" McGee snorted, pouting his lips. "And don鈥檛 be all sisterly to me. I don鈥檛 have such a rude, unreasonable, and mindless sister like you. Spit it out. What problem have you caused this time?"
"Problem?" Gu Mo laughed cheerily. "What problems would I have? I鈥檓 worried about you. I want to see how you are doing. So why don鈥檛 you welcome me?"
"I won鈥檛!" McGee looked like he had a headache. "If you don鈥檛 have any business here, don鈥檛 disturb me. It was so hard for me to get back. I wanna relax a bit here."
Then, McGee waved his hand as if he couldn鈥檛 stand her anymore. He signaled Gu Mo to go away.
Gu Mo of the Brutal Dragon Tribe still had a smile on her face as she assessed Shi Yan. She spoke to him tenderly. "Little brother, how do you relate to McGee? I just wanted to warn you as soon as possible. McGee is a spoiled kid. You won鈥檛 have anything good happen if you stay with him. You鈥檇 better draw a clear line with him soon."
Shi Yan frowned, his face cold and stern. He didn鈥檛 respond to the girl.
Gu Mo snorted. She wasn鈥檛 pleased with Shi Yan鈥檚 manners. She turned around and rolled her eyes at McGee. Suddenly, she looked reluctant, her voice more tender. "McGee, I want to discuss something with you."
"Later," McGee was bewildered. Afterward, he spoke up, "Wait until my bro I and here finish our business. Then, I will talk to you. But I want to make myself clear first. Don鈥檛 you dare use me as your shield or ask me to be your partner in crime ever again."
Shi Yan was amazed.
From McGee鈥檚 attitude, Shi Yan could tell that his relationship with this Brutal Dragon girl wasn鈥檛 shallow. It seemed like she used to use him before. He was pissed off. However, due to the good relationship between the Evil Dragon Tribe and the Brutal Dragon Tribe, he previously got along well with Gu Mo. That was why he was a bit moody now.
"Don鈥檛! I like a man. He鈥檚 arrogant. But my father favors him a lot. He doesn鈥檛 even mind me." Gu Mo let herself loose easily. She didn鈥檛 even mind Shi Yan鈥檚 presence. She talked tenderly, "I don鈥檛 know what he likes. He鈥檚 very quiet. I don鈥檛 know what he thinks. I think you guys are all men so it would be easier for you guys to connect. Can you help me make him open up a little bit to see what he likes?"
McGee was astounded. He looked at Gu Mo disbelievingly and stammered, "You... you鈥檙e joking, right? I have never seen your face like this before. Do you really like him? Impossible! The savage little girl of the Brutal Dragon Tribe likes someone? You never favored any man. Is he... is he from Monster Clan too?"
"Yeah, he鈥檚 one of us. Anyway, he isn鈥檛 from Agate Star Area. He came to our star area ten years ago. Now, he鈥檚 a fighter of our Brutal Dragon Tribe. My father said that he has endless potential and that he would become the new star of our Monster Clan." Gu Mo was a little shy. "He鈥檚 very cold and harsh. In the past ten years, he has fought everywhere for our Brutal Dragon Tribe. He has earned our respect. Lately, my father had a bizarre idea. He wants to give him a life star."
"Wow, impossible!" McGee became interested. "Your father has sharp eyes, and he has high expectations too. A foreigner can earn his appreciation that much? Is he really that excellent?"
"Yeah," Gu Mo nodded. She hesitated for a while before continuing. "I think he鈥檚 a hybrid. He has the blood of the Dark Clan though. His power is strange and wicked. He is definitely a member of Monster Clan, but we鈥檝e never seen his branch in Agate Star Area before. He鈥檚 called... Ghost Hunter."
Shi Yan was struck. He heard only buzzing sounds in his head and he didn鈥檛 know what Gu Mo and McGee were talking about.
Ghost Hunter! It was Ghost Hunter!
When he left Grace Mainland that year, Ghost Hunter, Holy Spirit God, Devouring Gold Silkworm, King of Demonic Insects had gone to gather the Monster Clan鈥檚 inheritance. After that, Shi Yan lost his connection with them.
After he had returned, he had found them bitterly in Grace Mainland. He could only see the inheritance altar on that mountain range and his beasts.
It has been so many years. How could Shi Yan stay calm hearing news of Ghost Hunter in Agate Star Area?
Actually, Ghost Hunter was the first mount he had tamed. His Great Grandfather had brought him from the Demon Area.
Ghost Hunter had a unique origin. He was the hybrid of Heaven Ghost of Underworld and Hunter Dragon of the Demon Area, which was the strongest and most bizarre dark monster and demon beast of the Underworld and Demon Area in Grace Mainland respectively. From the day he followed Shi Yan, Shi Yan always felt that he was an extremely fearful creature.
Shi Yan could never imagine that he could find Ghost Hunter鈥檚 whereabouts in Agate Star Area. They had been apart for so long.
Ghost Hunter... Why did he work for Brutal Dragon Clan of Agate Star Area? What happened to them in Heavenly Demon Mountain Range? Where had he been before he came to Agate Star Area? What happened to him?
Shi Yan was perplexed, staying put. He was immersed in shock. He didn鈥檛 say anything for a long time.
McGee was still talking to Gu Mo. Gu Mo was explaining and telling him how Ghost Hunter of the Brutal Dragon Tribe had won in many battles. "He is pretty fierce. Ever since he arrived, he has always been engaging in combat. He鈥檚 bloodthirsty and brutal. He鈥檚 more brutal and savage than our Brutal Dragon Tribe! My father favors him a lot. He has joined many fights for our tribe. His achievements pile up day by day, which is a threat to our clansmen. At this moment, he鈥檚 about to break through to level 12. I think... it won鈥檛 take too long."
"About to reach level 12? Which means he鈥檚 at the peak of level 11? Nah, not much different from the other warriors at Peak of Original God Realm. Gu Mo, you鈥檙e at level 12. Why do you need to please him?" McGee was surprised.
"I couldn鈥檛 defeat him," Gu Mo smiled embarrassedly. "I didn鈥檛 feel right when my father favored him more than me. I fought him once when no one noticed. He beat me up. He almost killed me. At that moment, I found his charisma. Only this sort of man would be able to match me!"
"Holy moly!" McGee was astounded. "He鈥檚 one level lower than you and he almost killed you? Gu Mo, have you not made any progress these years?"
"You think you鈥檙e strong?" Gu Mo sneered. "Even if it were you, you would be defeated! If he wasn鈥檛 so outstanding, how can I yearn for him that much? Our Monster Clan isn鈥檛 similar to other races. Not many tribes can do this kind of different-level combat. Especially since he defeated me. Among tribes of Monster Clan, our two tribes are the strongest. If he can defeat me, a Brutal Dragon member, he can beat you up too. He can even kill you!"
Gu Mo spoke resolutely as if it the absolute truth.
Apparently, McGee didn鈥檛 buy it. He sneered, shaking his head. "He鈥檚 from a small, unknown tribe. You think he can defeat me? What kind of joke is that! I think that since you like him, you didn鈥檛 use your full power. That was how he defeated you. Oh, women. You will do everything your heart tells you to do!"
"Bring it on!" Gu Mo was enraged. She smiled coldly. "He鈥檚 in Black Stone Island. Do you need to test him? If you can defeat him, I鈥檓 sure I won鈥檛 trouble you anymore. And I will cover your ass for those dirty things you鈥檝e done."
"Are you sure?"
"Sure!"
"Deal!"
McGee was boosted. He rubbed his hands, grinning. "Since you have my tail, you often threatened me that you will report me. I鈥檓 so irritated. Well, I can teach your loved one a lesson. You will see how strong I am. Later on, you won鈥檛 babble and tag along anymore."
McGee shot up. He was excited about having a fight. However, he seemed to recall something, turning to Shi Yan embarrassedly. "Bro, you stay here. I鈥檒l get back to you soon. Don鈥檛 worry. No one will disturb you here. I will tell them and take care of you."
Gu Mo of the Brutal Dragon Tribe didn鈥檛 mind Shi Yan. She just glanced at him and then turned around.
In Gu Mo鈥檚 eyes, Shi Yan was just a warrior at Second Sky of Original God Realm. Evidently, he wasn鈥檛 worth mentioning. As one of the strongest branches of the Monster Clan in Agate Star Area, the Brutal Dragon Tribe was famous. They had keen eyesight.
"I鈥檓 going with you." As McGee and Gu Mo were still baffled, Shi Yan put the Child formation back into his Fantasy Sky Ring. He followed them quietly, speaking deliberately. "I also want to widen my knowledge."
"Hey boy, remember to stay far away from them. The man I like is very strong. He won鈥檛 care about killing you. As you are McGee鈥檚 friend, I鈥檓 kind enough to remind you. You shouldn鈥檛 court yourself death!" Gu Mo frowned, kindly giving him advice.
Shi Yan nodded nonchalantly.
"McGee, your friend鈥檚 realm isn鈥檛 high. How did you meet him?" Gu Mo didn鈥檛 care about Shi Yan鈥檚 feelings, speaking to McGee casually. "You should be careful. Don鈥檛 infuriate him. Otherwise, even I won鈥檛 be able to stop him. He... he doesn鈥檛 listen to me. He doesn鈥檛 listen to anybody. Sometimes, he even goes against my father鈥檚 orders. This man is very haughty... But I really like him."
Gu Mo was infatuated with the man as if she had been sinking deep into the sea of affection that she couldn鈥檛 control.
