Chapter 25: Sword Saints Are All Monsters!

Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Underground?

Everyone was confused.

He Shuang, Ren Zehong, and Xu Huimei looked at each other.

Su Mo immediately followed Xue Qiaoqiao’s gaze and looked at the nearby manhole cover.

He knew that Xue Qiaoqiao’s words were not without reason.

After checking her attributes, he knew that Xue Qiaoqiao had an ability called life detection.

Under normal circumstances, this ability was used to detect life signs. For example, to check the battlefield for survivors, perform a check on the enemy to see if they are truly dead, or perform an examination on a teammate who had been determined to be dead to see if there is any way to save them.

It was because of this ability that Xue Qiaoqiao never failed in the field of healing.

After all, Transcendents were different from ordinary people. Just because they had no pulse or heartbeat didn’t mean they were dead.

And now, since she said that there was something underground, there must be something.

Su Mo stepped forward and raised his hand to release the retractable sword. He said to everyone, “All of you, step back.”

The three of them hesitated.

Xue Qiaoqiao’s expression was solemn as she said in a deep voice, “Listen to him. Everyone, retreat to the back.”

Perhaps Xue Qiaoqiao’s tone was too formal, or perhaps it was because everyone realized that she was a level 3 Transcendent, but He Shuang and the others quickly retreated.

They had just hidden behind an SUV when a loud “bang” was heard.

Like a marsh gas explosion, the manhole cover flew up into the sky and flipped dozens of times in the air before landing heavily on a car at the side. The roof of the car collapsed, and the car window shattered into pieces, debris falling all over the ground.

Xue Qiaoqiao couldn’t help but cry out when she saw this, “This is our team’s car! Xiao Mo! Kill that level 2 fox demon!”

“What? Level 2?” Su Mo felt his hair stand on end.

The next second, a green fox suddenly rushed out of the manhole.

Su Mo did not even think and immediately slashed.

Extremely sharp sword energy followed the edge of his sword and slashed forward. Wherever the sword Qi passed, a deep mark was plowed on the ground.

Caught off guard, the green fox’s already-injured body once again exploded with blood. It let out a painful hiss as it fell to the ground.

It had originally planned to immediately escape, but after realizing that Su Mo was only at level 1, hatred instantly overwhelmed its rationality, and it rushed over like lightning.

At that moment, Su Mo felt an indescribable sense of danger.

This was the first time he had fought a demon head-on after becoming a Transcendent.

Although the other party seemed to be seriously injured, it was still a level 2 demon.

The green fox was as fast as lightning, and its body was fleeting like a shadow. Even though Su Mo had never been so focused before, it was still difficult for him to see its trajectory.

Each time the sword fell, it only hit the illusion and missed.

Whenever the green fox flew past him, it would always leave a wound on him.

At the most dangerous moment, it was only three or four centimeters away from tearing his neck apart.

In just ten or so seconds, Su Mo’s entire body was covered in blood, and he looked as if he would collapse at any moment.

At this moment, he felt the same as when he first met Lin Keke. He was filled with an irresistible grievance and a sense of weakness.

“It’s different now! I’m completely different! I’m no longer an ordinary person!” It was as if he wanted to kill his past self on the spot, an extremely violent and ruthless aura suddenly rose from Su Mo’s body.

He no longer dodged the attacks that were not fatal. For a moment, his sword attacks were like rain, and the sword light was like a waterfall.

The dense storm sword and the courage to go all out forced the green fox to show itself.

Then, Su Mo used the eye of truth to see where the other party was standing.

He slashed down with his sword, but it didn’t hit.

An energy sword formed in his left hand at lightning speed, and he instantly slashed out a second time, cutting off a layer of skin and flesh from the green fox’s foot.

Without waiting for the other party to cry out in pain, the finger sword that had been hidden for a long time was unleashed at a close distance. It instantly pierced through the head of the Azure Fox, and a large amount of blood splattered out.

Looking at the green fox, who was gradually losing its breath after falling to the ground, the scene fell silent for a moment. Everyone’s eyes were fixed on the bloodied figure, who was panting heavily.

Xue Qiaoqiao, who had been preparing to buff Su Mo, watched all of it happen and couldn’t help but feel shocked.

Under normal circumstances, with a level 3 healer like her present, even if ten level 2 fox demons appeared, they could drag the enemy to death.

This was why she dared to let Su Mo take the initiative to fight.

Who would have thought that the boy, who had just awakened a few days ago, would give her such a big surprise when facing a level 2 fox demon?

He fought alone and didn’t retreat even when injured, counterattacking from the brink of death, thus turning defeat into victory.

Were all sword saints this powerful?

No, rather, he was strong!

Xue Qiaoqiao sharply sensed the change in Su Mo’s temperament.

If he had been an unsharpened sword before, he had at the very least been tempered now, laying a solid foundation for future sharpening.

Behind the other car, He Shuang and the other two also looked at Su Mo in shock.

They had heard of the power of a sword saint.

However, what they heard was just hearsay. What they saw in person was even more shocking.

Especially since they knew that the other party had only become a sword saint for a few days.

Had it even been a week? To think he could already kill a level 2 fox demon.

Even though the fox demon was already severely injured, it was still a level 2 demon. Beating up a level 1 Transcendent should’ve been child’s play.

Yet, Su Mo had broken all common sense and killed the demon on the spot.

Since he was able to achieve such a feat now, wouldn’t he soar if he was given more time?

At the same time, Ren Zehong noticed with his sharp eyes that the other party had used at least four abilities during the battle.

It had only been a few days, and he had already awakened so many new abilities?

They were all at level 1, so why was he so outstanding?

Ren Zehong held it in for a long time before he spat out a few words, “Sword Saints are all monsters!”

On the side, He Shuang sighed in amazement as she whispered to Xu Huimei, “The captain has been too careless. She probably didn’t expect Su Mo to be so strong. If she had known about his strength, she wouldn’t have hugged him back then. She would’ve just stuffed a note with a hotel room number into his hands to get the matter done and kidnap him into our team. With this God here, we won’t have to worry about people dying on missions in the future.”

Xu Huimei nodded in agreement.

“Poison removal! Quick heal! Spirit strengthening! Physical strength recovery!” Xue Qiaoqiao used four skills in a row, all on Su Mo.

In that instant, Su Mo felt all of his negative statuses, such as being poisoned, bleeding, and fatigued, disappear.

He had completely recovered, and he even felt better than before the battle.

Su Mo looked at Xue Qiaoqiao and complained, “If you had given me buffs earlier, I wouldn’t have had to use such a long time to fight a level 2 fox demon.”

“But you’ve also gained a lot, haven’t you?” Xue Qiaoqiao replied with a smile.

Su Mo clenched his hands.

Indeed, he felt that he had grown a lot compared to before.

Although he had previously mastered many skills through the lottery, he felt very unfamiliar with those skills and always felt a barrier when using them.

However, it was different now. Even if his proficiency was not high enough, he could release and retract his attacks as he wished, hitting wherever he aimed at.

The improvement of control over one’s abilities was not something that could be easily achieved through training. It had to be done through actual combat.

However, just as he was busy experiencing the lingering effects of the feeling of being in control, Xue Qiaoqiao’s expression changed drastically, and she shouted anxiously, “Retreat at once!”

Su Mo did not hesitate and quickly retreated.

He and Xue Qiaoqiao hid far away.

The next second, an aura that emitted a huge pressure suddenly burst out from the bottom of the manhole.

A grey light shot out like lightning.

Behind it, an arrow of light shot out at an even faster speed and pierced through the grey figure.

A shrill scream that stirred one’s mind came from the air.

Immediately, a corpse fell heavily and turned into a huge body.

It was the giant grey fox that had been running for a long time.
