Long Lingli felt Ji Mo's incredibly hot gaze, and her small face instantly flushed red to the roots of her ears.
It was the first time a boy had dared to stare at her so brazenly, making her a little uncomfortable, but she couldn't help but feel secretly pleased.
After all, with her slender, graceful waist that could be held in one hand, so soft and boneless, who wouldn't like it?
She stretched her waist, her flat, fair abdomen peeking out, making Ji Hanhan's gaze even more direct.
"Mhm."
Long Lingli nodded, her voice as faint as a mosquito's hum.
To obtain even a drop of Ji Mo's vital essence, she had completely thrown caution to the wind.
"Then it's settled."
Ji Mo swallowed again, impatiently walking towards Long Lingli, a fawning smile on his face. "Don't worry, I'll be gentle. It might hurt a bit at first, and there will be some bleeding, but I'll finish as quickly as possible so you won't suffer."
Hearing this, Long Lingli's pretty face turned even redder.
Honestly, saying it so directly was so embarrassing.
She bit her lip and responded in a low voice, "I know you're fast, but you don't need to be so impatient. You can... take your time."
"How can this be slow? Naturally, the faster the better."
Ji Hanhan rubbed his hands together, saying excitedly, "There's no time to delay, shall we start now?"
"Start? Here?"
Long Lingli was stunned.
Could such a thing be done in broad daylight?!
No, absolutely not, she could never accept it.
But Ji Mo paid no mind to the consequences and began to act.
He extended his Lu Shan claws towards Long Lingli's slender waist and pressed it down.
With his other hand, he pulled out a small knife, nearly half a foot long, and without a word, prepared to cut.
In the beginning, Ji Mo was lusting after Long Lingli's body.
But he wasn't after possession, he was after consumption.
This fellow had always been eager to taste dragon liver, and this transaction was not to obtain Long Lingli's person, but her liver.
"What are you doing?"
Seeing Ji Mo holding a knife and gesturing at her abdomen, Long Lingli was so terrified that her face turned ashen, and she almost burst into tears.
"Of course, I'm going to cut off half your liver. If you're unwilling, I can compromise and take a kidney instead."
Ji Mo explained.
With his medical skills, cutting off half of Long Lingli's liver or a kidney would not cost her life.
Afterward, he would brew a few doses of medicine for her, and in a few days, it would grow back.
Long Lingli was numb, and she questioned in disbelief, "You're not lusting after my waist, but want to eat my kidney?"
This is too perverted. How could such a person exist in this world?
"No, mainly I want to taste dragon liver."
Ji Mo emphasized, raising the small knife in his hand, about to strike.
"Stop, no, you can't, terminate the transaction."
Long Lingli tightly gripped Ji Mo's wrist and quickly begged for mercy.
The thought of having half her liver or a kidney cut out while alive terrified her to the point of near collapse.
"Heh, woman, you go back on your word and deceived my feelings."
Ji Mo reluctantly withdrew his hand.
Honestly, they had agreed that any request could be granted, yet she immediately reneged.
Long Lingli's face was full of grievance. She had agreed because she thought Ji Mo was lusting after her body, only to discover that this fellow had such a peculiar appetite.
"Too brutal, truly too brutal. Even a beauty like Long Lingli is merely food in his eyes. Such people are the most cold-blooded and terrifying; one must never provoke them."
The surrounding beings, one by one, turned ashen-faced, in a state of panic.
Who wouldn't be afraid if he decided to eat them at the slightest disagreement?
"To think I was just thinking about getting his blood. This guy must not be offended, or I'll surely face dire consequences."
"Exactly, too terrifying. From now on, we'll avoid him whenever we see him, otherwise, we might get cut out and eaten by him."
The surroundings were in turmoil, and many were so frightened that they directly distanced themselves, lest Ji Mo take an interest in them.
Ji Hanhan's fearsome reputation spread like wildfire. Many people knew that a notoriously bloody and cruel "Needle Man" had appeared in Blood State, who enjoyed consuming Emperor-level beings.
...
One Hundred and Seventh Peak.
Two figures, one after another, broke through hardships and obstacles, bravely forging their way to the summit.
Di Tianzheng's body was radiant, emitting nine halos to protect himself as he moved forward slowly.
His clothes were slightly torn and stained with bloodstains, and his face was pale, clearly indicating the hardships he had endured along the way.
Looking up at the nearby peak, he revealed a triumphant smile.
In no time, he would successfully reach the summit, and if nothing unexpected happened, he would have broken the record.
Last time, when he broke the record for the One Hundred and Sixth Peak, he was tragically overshadowed by that mysterious expert.
This time, he wanted to get back what he had lost, with interest, and make his name known throughout Blood State and even the entire Immortal Spirit Realm.
Just as he couldn't help but let out a wild laugh, he noticed a graceful figure catching up from behind.
"Ying Menglong? She actually possesses a pure divine beast bloodline!"
Di Tianzheng stared at Ying Menglong, who was catching up, his face full of surprise.
He had heard of this peerless beauty who had suddenly appeared in Blood State, but he had never taken her seriously.
After all, with his background, he could look down upon the entire Immortal Spirit Realm; any genius was trash in his eyes.
But now, someone he had never taken seriously was performing even better than him, which was unacceptable.
One must know that Ying Menglong must have started climbing later than him, yet she had caught up to his progress.
If this trend continued, Ying Menglong's final result would inevitably be slightly better, surpassing him.
The shadow of failure immediately enveloped Di Tianzheng, who had always been so self-assured.
"Ying Menglong, what exactly is your background?"
Di Tianzheng stared at the surging blood emanating from Ying Menglong's body, as well as the faint sacred aura, and was certain that her divine beast bloodline was incredibly potent, and of an extremely ancient lineage.
"Then what is your background? A reincarnation of a deity? Or a soul fragment possessing a reborn body?"
Ying Menglong widened her eyes, curiously observing Di Tianzheng.
She had some understanding of this most dazzling first genius of Blood State.
Now that they had met, she sensed something strange about him, even giving her a creepy feeling.
Di Tianzheng narrowed his eyes, a cold glint flashing in the depths of his pupils, seemingly not expecting her to be so perceptive.
However, he was extremely confident and not afraid of Ying Menglong discovering his secrets, merely letting out a cold snort.
Ying Menglong couldn't be bothered to respond and moved past Di Tianzheng, continuing forward.
She had no intention of concerning herself with Di Tianzheng's background; she was merely a passerby, and after completing her trial, she would leave the Immortal Spirit Realm.
Di Tianzheng's expression darkened, and he maliciously launched a sneak attack.
He conjured a alms bowl, from which runes surged, casting down layers of light that immediately trapped Ying Menglong within.
"You want to compete with me and steal my spotlight? No way! First place is mine, and it can only belong to me. You stay here and watch me break the record."
Di Tianzheng laughed triumphantly and quickly rushed towards the summit.
