Chapter 2379: Original Body

However, what left an even deeper impression was that her strength was just too low. Any random guard in the underground city could easily win against her. That was why he\'d never treated this weak-looking young lady with any importance. And yet she dared to stand in front of him right now?

He felt an indescribable sense of anger and absurdity.

Do even nobodies now dare to stand in front of me because they saw the regent win a few rounds against me?

He raised his hand and was about to crush the young lady casually.

Hmph, the cuter something is, the more you want to crush it to death. This kind of feeling is simply incredible!

Ji Xiaoxi was already extremely scared. When she saw that, she screamed in terror and threw the jade bottle in her hands.

“Is this jade bottle some kind of magic treasure?” The Monster Lord was a bit confused. He didn’t seem to have sensed any powerful magic weapon energy emanating from it. But just in case, he still took out the Treasure Sinking Coin.

Surprisingly, however, the jade bottle wasn’t affected by the coin at all and smashed into his body. Due to the toughness of the Monster Lord\'s body, the bottle couldn\'t withstand the impact at all and almost instantly broke apart. Then, an orange smoke wafted out.

The Monster Lord was a bit stunned, but then he laughed. “Poison? Little girl, did you actually think that you could poison me?”

What kind of joke was this? For someone as powerful as him, his resistance to poison was already extremely strong. Furthermore, he was a poison user himself, so how would he be poisoned by this human? The bodies of monsters like him were vastly different from the bodies of this world\'s humans. How could poison from this world do anything?

He was about to crush the young lady when he suddenly staggered, feeling numb and dizzy.

“How?!”

This poison actually had affected him!

He didn’t dare to show any carelessness and immediately closed his eyes to adjust his breathing. At the same time, he used his cultivation to try and expel the poison from his body. Then, he reached out to grab toward Ji Xiaoxi again. The regent had risked outright conflict with Manager Pi in the Monster World for this young lady’s sake, so he definitely cared about her. Now that the Monster Lord was poisoned, he had to capture her. That way, the regent would refrain from attacking and could actually consider the compromise.

Just then, a blur appeared before his eyes as Zu An appeared in front of Ji Xiaoxi. This was something the Monster Lord hadn\'t predicted. Zu An had finally broken free of the three-headed bird’s attacks and used the position exchange skill.

The Monster Lord had made sure to prepare many space-locking treasures, preventing Zu An from switching with him. However, Zu An had reacted quickly and swapped with half of the broken bottle.

But more importantly, the speed of Zu An\'s subsequent sword slash and the power he released scared even the Monster Lord. In that instant, it seemed almost as if Zu An\'s strength had increased tenfold! The power of that sword was even stronger than before and even more blinding.

Additionally, the Monster Lord was affected by Ji Xiaoxi’s strange poison, so his reaction speed was a bit slower than before. Even though it was only a tiny bit, even the smallest opportunity at this kind of critical moment was sufficient to be lethal. He saw that he couldn\'t dodge in time, so he could only raise his hands to intercept that sword. At the same time, all sorts of defensive treasures activated around him. However, he knew that they likely wouldn\'t be enough to stop that sword at all.

A hint of dread flashed through the Monster Lord’s eyes. Fortunately, the three-headed bird rushed over and threw itself at Zu An.

...

Below, Mojard and Salamay remarked, “The Monster Lord is finished. The regent was hiding this skill that could increase power tenfold all this time. If he endures the attack of the three-headed bird, he’ll just receive some serious injuries at most. Meanwhile, the Monster Lord will be dead for certain.”

Salamay couldn\'t help but feel extremely excited. Didn’t this mean they could rush in to seize the spoils at the last minute the way they were hoping for?

The Monster Lord had been too careless. He\'d wanted to attack the women to distract Zu An, but he never expected to be defeated by that young lady, thus placing himself in a situation of inevitable death.

But the scene that unfolded afterward made everyone watcing widen their eyes. Zu An’s blinding sword gracefully changed directions to attack the three-headed bird that was striking at his back!

Mojard immediately smacked his leg when he saw this. “This regent is a cowardly and craven guy too! He gave up such an excellent opportunity to kill the Monster Lord! He clearly could’ve just suffered a bit of injury, yet he chose the safest option.”

Even if he injured that three-headed bird, the Monster Lord would be able to recover by exploiting this opportunity. With his cunningness, there was no way he would let himself be poisoned and trapped in his current predicament again.

Spurt!

The three-headed bird had never expected this attack from Zu An at all. It had already been doing everything it could to seriously injure Zu An to begin with.

The sword thrust straight into the middle head’s mouth with irresistible force. Its resplendent sword energy instantly destroyed that head. However, the sword’s momentum didn’t stop at all. It soon severed the dispirited head to the left, and then aimed at the head at the right.

The three-headed bird finally reacted to what was going on and frantically flapped its wings to retreat into the distance, looking at him in fear. However, in the end, it still wasn’t able to escape that sword. An incredibly deep wound appeared on its neck. Blood continuously poured out, and its final head was now only half-connected to its body.

“The Monster Lord can completely use this chance to seriously injure him!” Mojard said at first, but after a moment, he exclaimed in surprise, “Why isn’t the Monster Lord moving?”

The Monster Lord was standing still as if he was frozen in place. All of his attacks came to a grunting halt. Blood began to trickle out from the corner of his mouth and his neck, even though there were clearly no injuries there. He stared at Zu An, smiling with a hint of bitterness as he asked, “When did you notice?”

Zu An calmly said, “From when I destroyed your first head, and found that you could actually still grow another head. I was already a bit suspicious then.

“Later, you actually used your head to stop all of the Bloodmelt Demon Needles, and then grew another.”

Mojard and Salamay exchanged a look, their expressions filled with shock. They could clearly understand every single word Zu An spoke, but why didn’t those words make any sense? Just what kind of riddle was this?

The Monster Lord wiped away the blood at his neck. Even his voice shook a bit as he said, “But that only proved that my weakness wasn\'t my head, and perhaps it could be a different part of my body. Why didn’t you attack my body instead of the three-headed bird?”

Zu An didn’t even give him a look, and instead raised his sword at the three-headed bird... No, it was more appropriate to call it a one-headed bird now.

“Didn’t I, though? That three-headed bird is none other your original body.”
