Chapter 590 – Kill the Young, Anger the Old. Grand Elder Mu Descend!
The centipede dragon gazed at Miaomiao for a moment, after which it vanished as Heavenly Dao took it away.
The remaining centipede queens also left, but they headed for the garbage pit next to the stable. The rest of the centipedes followed their leaders.
Miaomiao glanced at the newest item in the system inventory slot. It was a marble orb.
As Miaomiao was in public, he couldn't risk using this orb even though his consciousness in the dantian space could oversee it. After all, Miaomiao had no idea what might affect him had he used the orb.
Most importantly, he had to fight 8 more times, and that silly deacon from the Mu Clan might throw eight more deities to kill him.
Being a protagonist was troublesome. He missed his villain-mob days when he could leech off from elders and stronger villain organizations.
"Alright. Who's next?"
Miaomiao smiled at the deacon. He also didn't forget to collect his loot, aka the spatial rings of the Qiu clansmen.
The massacre of the Qiu Clan delighted several families and cultivators while the friends, business partners, and allies of the Qiu Clan were still in shock.
A mortal just slaughtered a deity!
What kind of monster was Miaomiao?! How did he do this?!
"THIS.IS.AWESOME *CLAP* *CLAP* *CLAP-CLAP-CLAP*"
"THIS.IS.AWESOME *CLAP* *CLAP* *CLAP-CLAP-CLAP*"
The maniac fans still chanted and clapped as if they were cheering for their favorite professional wrestler.
Miaomiao's smiling face turned stiff as these chants and cheers reminded him of his MMA days. He tried his best not to get too excited or be overwhelmed by the distraction.
On stages, the crowd influenced the mentality of fighters a lot. Sometimes, a loud boo could demoralize a fighter to the point that he could no longer use his full potential. The same way worked with the cheers as it could distract the winning fighters.
'Annoying.'
Miaomiao stopped paying attention to the crowd and waited for the deacon's response.
Meanwhile, the deacon of the Mu Clan looked at Miaomiao in disbelief. The mysterious power of Miaomiao scared him.
As soon as Miaomiao's killing intent locked at him, the deacon came back to his sense. He stuttered and looked around, "I-Is there any fighter wish to try his luck?"
Silence
Aside from Miaomiao's fans, the haters kept their mouths shut. Even immortal elders who had planned to fight Miaomiao earlier got cold feet.
Who were they? They were merely immortals!
Fighting a guy that could kill a deity? No way!
Even if their intelligence was debuffed by Miaomiao's protagonist power, they weren't stupid enough to commit suicide.
For five minutes, the deacon awkwardly waited for a volunteer.
Miaomiao was satisfied with his intimidation power. He made an announcement to counter-offer the deacon's bribe.
"I have a better idea. Because this so-called assessment test requires me to fight 10 opponents consecutively, I need some volunteers to spar with me. Of course, we don't have to fight seriously, and you can simply give up after the fight starts. How about this? I shall sell baby centipedes to the volunteers, and there won't be a purchase limit like the last time!"
As soon as Miaomiao finished speaking, one of Miaomiao's employees raised his hand. He was none other than Tugu.
"I VOLUNTEER!"
Tugu leaped onto the stage and laughed, "I challenge you, boss!"
"Of course, let's spar. Come!"
The deacon's face paled as he knew what they were up to. Before he could officially allow Tugu to fight, Miaomiao and Tugu already jumped at each other.
But their speed was weirdly slow.
Tugu bellowed while he threw a punch, "TIGAR PUNCH!!"
It was a falcon punch in slow motion.
Miaomiao also did the same, "SHO-RYU-KEN!"
A jump uppercut softly hit Tugu's chin. The latter unusually let out a weird noise as he purposely kicked back and fell on his back. Then, he closed his eyes, pretending to be unconscious.
Ta Dun at the side of the ring loudly commented, "K.O.! Boss Mao Miaomiao wins!"
Spectators: "…"
Mu Deacon: "…"
The act was too corny. Everybody was speechless.
The deacon was enraged. He bellowed, "Do you think this is a joke?!"
Tugu sat up. He and Miaomiao looked at the deacon and spoke in unison, "Yes."
"…"
Miaomiao ignored the deacon and opened his system shop interface. He allowed Tugu to purchase as many centipedes as he could.
Tugu cheerfully bought 10,000 of them. Then, Miaomiao ordered him to collect the baby centipedes from the garbage pit.
Tugu quickly retreated and laughed. Then, Ta Dun jumped on the stage, "I'm next!"
But the deacon didn't allow it, "ENOUGH! That previous match doesn't count! THAT WAS TOO STUPID!"
Miaomiao waved his hand and ordered Ta Dun to back down. He then levitated and confronted the deacon, "How about you fight with me in a death-match and get this shitty farce over with. I'm also tired of your stupid bullshit."
The deacon was infuriated. Yet, he didn't dare to fight Miaomiao as he knew that he had no chance against this monster.
"You wait here. I'll go bring new fighters!"
"You're wasting my time, senior. How about this? Since I have to fight 8 more opponents, gather all those opponents for me. I'll fight them all at once."
Hearing that Miaomiao intended to fight all opponents at once, the deacon sneered, "You said it yourself. Fine. I'll let you fight everybody at once!"
The deacon turned to the crowd, "Did everybody hear that? In the next match, it shall be Mao Miaomiao against 8 opponents at the same time! If anybody wishes to claim the rewards earlier, please feel free to come on the sta-"
BOOM
Before the deacon could finish his sentences, his body was exploded into a blood mist, and a million baby centipedes jumped out of his body.
Miaomiao had activated the time acceleration and let the centipede eggs inside the deacon grow faster.
He had enough of this nonsense. He glared at the Mu Clan's people, "Instead of wasting time, I hereby declare war against the Mu Clan! Come, you little dipshit. It doesn't matter if you have a grand elder or a fucking god as a backer. I'll kill you all and paint this planet with your blood!"
"INSOLENCE!"
A hundred immortals of the Mu Clan couldn't take it anymore. They unleashed their powers and attempted to crush Miaomiao to a meat paste with their unified soul domains.
But Miaomiao simply pressed a button on his stopwatch.
TIME ACCELERATION
Miaomiao burst into laughter like a hyena.
"Screw anti-heroes. Screw naïve protagonists. Viva la villain!"
Miaomiao no longer cared whether he might offend Adam and the entire Eden Garden Sect or not. He ordered all centipede eggs that he had planted inside the Mu Clan's fighters to grow and kill the hosts.
BOOM! BOOM!
The hundreds of immortals exploded into blood mist. Some turned into ash as they cultivated soul physique. Still, one thing was common.
Centipedes emerged from their corpses. Almost a billion centipedes rained from the sky above the arena.
10,000 of the centipedes came out as adults. Another hundred queens were born from the soul cores of the immortals as well.
The death of all Mu Clan's fighters and the emergence of a billion centipedes frightened the spectators. They ran and flew away from Miaomiao and the centipedes, not wanting to get implicated in the fight.
But the fight was already over. No hostile forces of the Mu Clan or the Qiu Clan remained in this city.
Miaomiao scoffed while he collected almost a thousand spatial rings from the piles of ashes and pools of blood. He planned to dump the useless trash from their rings into the garbage pit to feed his children later.
While Miaomiao was organizing the little centipedes and the queens, his eyeballs exploded from the inside out, and his eardrums ruptured. His heart was self-detonated, and all his innards were crushed.
A strange force from another deity hit him!
TIME STOP
Before Miaomiao lost consciousness because of the sudden ambush, Meowmeow's tentacle shot out from his shadow and pressed the time-stop button on the wristwatch, stopping the time before the disaster.
Miaomiao's body fell to the ground. But a few breaths later, all his organs were regenerated and healed.
The Cathulhu's tentacle was still frozen in time and pointed at the wristwatch's button. Miaomiao glanced at it and let out a sigh.
"Another close call."
Miaomiao patted Meowmeow's tentacle to thank him. He looked up to search for the ambusher, who almost instant-killed him just now.
Unfortunately, Miaomiao couldn't find the assailant.
'Annoying.'
Since fighting a mysterious deity here was disadvantageous for Miaomiao, he dragged the queens with his Qi and fled toward the stable.
He tossed the queen to the garbage pit. Then, he flew toward the purgatory waterfall next.
When he arrived at the destination, he pressed the wristwatch switch to resume the time.
As soon as the time resumed, Miaomiao pulled the cathulhu back into his dantian space.
'A strong deity is approaching. Be careful.'
'I know, Munya!'
Meowmeow knew his job. He hid in the dantian dimension while Miaomiao jumped into the purgatory river to hide his presence and aura.
…
Five seconds later after Miaomiao had fled from the city arena, a gigantic green slime fell onto the stage. It crushed the baby centipedes on the ground, which Miaomiao had left behind.
The slime had no eyes. Yet, it spread its Qi sense around to search for its target.
Another handsome middle-aged silver-haired elf slowly descended and stood on top of the massive green slime. He narrowed his eyes and leered at the centipedes.
"Eat them all."
Hearing its master's order, the slime stretched its mass like tentacles. They seized the centipedes and pulled them into its body.
The slime's liquid instantly dissolved the centipedes!
As it kept eating the centipedes, its aura and providence Qi was increased.
The slime revealed the aura of a pseudo deity. Meanwhile, the aura of the middle-aged man was even more suppressive than the slime.
Grand Elder Mu had arrived, and his eyes shifted, searching for Miaomiao's whereabouts.
Ten seconds later, the grand elder found Miaomiao's trace. He flew toward the stable alone as he left the slime to capture and kill all centipedes.
But as soon as he arrived, he found Xie Lian, Xie Fan, and a hundred centipede queens. Miaomiao wasn't there anymore.
The grand elder heavily landed inside the stable, crushing the roof and the repaired tiles on the rooftop. He confronted Xie Lian, "Trash of the Xie Clan, where is Mao Miaomiao!"
"What audacity," Xie Lian sneered, "You came barging into my resident, and you dare to call me trash? How about we settle the scores today!"
"Ha! You trash already run out of lifespan and can't live without a divine-grade artifact. What's the point of crushing the soul of a dead man?"
"What's the point? Well, how about I beat the shit out of you first and give you the reason!"
Xie Lian smirked as his Providence Dao Domain covered the entire planet.
Grand Elder Mu also unleashed his Providence Dao Domain and contested against Xie Lian's domain. Their domains pushed against each other, trying to reach the real bodies of their opponent.
But before the two powerhouses could start using more of their powers, two lightning bolts hit them and disabled their domains.
Adam appeared out of thin air and stood in between them.
"Lord Adam," Xie Lian and Xie Fan knelt.
However, grand elder Mu refused to bow down to Adam. He scoffed at his creator, "What do you want, Lord?"
Adam glared at elder Mu for a moment. Then, he relayed the new order of Nuwa.
"The sages have just updated a new rule. Mao Miaomiao must not be killed until the start of the NEW GAME! Violator will be erased from this universe for good!"
