Chapter 143: How Infuriating

The red figure turned to look back as he bared his teeth.
His first instinct was to head back into the cave to put out the fire.
Whoos.h.!.+
The red figure quickly dodged the sword qi that flew in his direction.
He looked up into the sky and then back down at the dozens of bat corpses in front of him. He started to tremble.
Someone was actually waiting at the entrance of his, waiting to kill any bats that tried to escape.
“Who are you?” the red figure said menacingly.
“Haven’t you been looking for me all this while?” Li Mu smiled.
The red figure roared. “You’re the True Realm master from the Zhou Family? Impossible!”
The Zhou Family’s True Realm master had only just broke through recently. How could he already be so powerful?
If he hadn’t reacted quickly just now, he would have been seriously injured by the lightning.
“Nothing is impossible! I heard that you’ve been looking for me for the past ten years. But now that I’m here, you seem to be very upset!” Li Mu teased him.
He seemed to be very relaxed.
The red figure realized that his opponent was indeed an intermediate True Realm master.
However, his cultivation level was the same as his, at the fifth level of the True Realm.
It seemed that he had just broken through not long ago too.
When facing a master of the same cultivation level, he knew that could always run away and escape if he failed.
This strange human had already destroyed the caves of the Bat Clan. As long as he injured this Master, that would be enough.
But it would be even better if he managed to kill this man.
Li Mu was no stranger to a battle like this.
“Did you burn the twelve Bat Clan caves?” asked the bat.
“If no one else did it, then yes, it was me,” said Li Mu. “Oh, actually that’s not right! I’ve burned more than twelve caves. I must have burned at least twenty caves! Some of those caves are really very large. If I didn’t add phosphorus and magnesium into it, it wouldn’t have finished burning in three days.”
Li Mu continued his speech and got more excited as he kept talking. “Tsk! How terrible! Whoever touches my fire will keep on burning and burning. I heard howling and screaming for three days…”
The red figure opposite him trembled with anger.
“Shut up!”
“How tragic! I almost couldn’t bear hearing their cries…”
“I’m going to kill you!”
Swis.h.!.+
The red figure rushed towards Li Mu.
Li Mu created a portal with his Phoenix Blood Sword and fled away.
After pausing for a moment, the Master of the Bat Clan cursed. “You b.a.s.t.a.r.d!”
“Kill me if you can,” Li Mu said slyly.
“You will die!” the Master yelled in rage.
He attacked Li Mu.
Whoos.h.!.+
Li Mu backed away again.
The red figure chased Li Mu around the cave.
“Come and kill me!”
Swis.h.!.+
Li Mu cut off the heads of the bats who was attempting to escape through the cave entrance.
The Master of the Bat Clan roared angrily, his eyes bloodshot with rage.
He couldn’t seem to catch up with the human.
If he went back to put out the fire, he would get killed.
He had never encountered such a formidable and scheming opponent.
“Why are you shouting? Can your shouting put out the fire? Look at your children and grandchildren… they’re almost burned to death…”
Boom!
Before Li Mu finished his sentence, the crypt on the mountain suddenly collapsed, creating a loud noise.
“What did you do?”
“Haha! I didn’t do anything much. I just set off a firecracker and buried your children and grandchildren alive,” Li Mu said excitedly.
“Go to h.e.l.l!”
Even though he didn’t understand what a firecracker was, he clearly understood what “buried alive” meant.
The Master of the Bat Clan turned violent.
Li Mu however, was still calm.
The two of them fought for a while, until a shadow flew towards them from the east.
“Another bat has come to die,” Li Mu said lightly.
The flying bat saw the smoking cave and his expression changed drastically. Then, he saluted and greeted his Master.
“Sir!”
“Kill him! I want you to chop him up into pieces!”
“Yes, sir!” Before the newcomer even had time to ask what was happening, the Master had already give his orders.
Without knowing the specifics, the new bat could only roughly guess what was happening and who the person in front of him was.
He attacked Li Mu.
“You’re just a second level True Realm master. Prepare to die!”
The Phoenix Blood Sword spun in the air towards him.
“How dare you!” The Master rushed toward Li Mu.
“Buddha’s Palms!”
A set of palms descended from the sky and hit the Master.
However, he was still not defeated yet.
“Ten Thousand Swords!” Li Mu attacked the Master with countless streams of sword qi.
The Master was overwhelmed by the attacks of the Buddha’s Palms and Ten Thousand Swords.
Li Mu fought the two of them with ease.
As the three of them fought, the surrounding mountains fell apart.
The Perfected Persons who escaped from the crypt were quickly destroyed in the ongoing battle.
Seeing that the Virtual Realm masters were severely injured, Li Mu took the opportunity to finish them off.
The other bats had no hope of escaping the crypt.
Green smoke emerged from the crypt, filling the air with the smell of burning flesh.
The two bats went mad with rage.
Rumble!
The sky changed color.
Thousands of miles away, masters from all of the clans looked up at the sky.
“Two True Realm masters are fighting!”
Whoos.h.!.+
A figure flew toward the battle to take a closer look.
“The battle seems to be at the Bat Clan. What is going on?”
“Is it the Anaconda Clan attacking the Bat Clan?”
Whoos.h.!.+
More figures rushed to watch the battle.
When they arrived, there were already a few True Realm masters spectating.
As they scanned the battlefield, they could identify two bats, but they couldn’t tell who the third person was.
“What happened?”
“The Bat Clan is going to be exterminated,” one of the figures replied. He then paused, took in a deep breath, and said, “It’s the True Realm master of the human race!.”
“What?”
“That’s the human’s True Realm master? When did the human race have a fifth-level True Realm master?”
They could not believe their eyes.
They had been monitoring the human race closely.
The most powerful one had just reached the fourth level of the True Realm five years ago.
“If I’m not wrong, he is from the Zhou Family.”
“Didn’t he just reach the True Realm just ten years ago?”
Everyone fell silent.
They were all dumbfounded.
He had just reached the True Realm not long ago. How was he already at the fifth level of the True Realm?
“This is utter nonsense!”
“Nonsense!”
Someone remarked, “The human race must have been hiding him for many years!”
“If this is the case, the human race is so deceitful.”
The group of True Realm masters felt a chill run down their backs.
“They must be planning to rebel this time!”
“What’s the use of rebelling? Humans will always be our prey!”
…
But as they watched the fight unfold and heard the dying cries coming from the cave, the expressions of these True Realm masters changed.
“This person is really amazing. He even blocked all the cave exits.”
“There have always been a deep hatred between the human race and the Bat Clan. There was no need for the bats to suck human blood. They just thought that the humans were easy to bully. That’s how they ended up like this now.”
“Even if the Bat Clan wins this battle, they have already suffered a huge loss.”
Whoos.h.!.+
Black blood filled the sky as the second level True Realm master that fought with Li Mu was cut in half.
Kaboom!
Thunder and lightning struck the bat’s body.
In an instant, the second-level True Realm Heavenly King of the Bat Clan turned into powder.
“How amazing! Even if the Bat Clan is not afraid of the sun, thunder and lightning can still kill them.” The corners of the mouths of several True Realm masters twitched.
Back on the battleground, the Master of the Bat Clan’s hair was standing on its ends. “Go and die!” he yelled.
He was shocked and scared, but he couldn’t wait to eat Li Mu’s flesh and blood.
His opponent was a fifth-level True Realm master just like him, but this person’s skills were more powerful than his.
He couldn’t win no matter how hard he fought.
But he couldn’t just flee!
After today, the Bat Clan would really be exterminated.
“Ah!”
Just then, two roars came from the distance.
“The other two Heavenly Kings from the Bat Clan are here.”
