Ao Ge had not put Ji Mo and Ning Wenjing in his eyes at all. He was a peak Demon Emperor and could walk sideways outside the ruins of the Human-Demon Ancient Battlefield. He could snatch whoever he wanted.
However, this time he was destined to suffer!
His right hand was an inch away from the Void Shuttle, but he could not advance any further.
Ji Mo held Ao Ge's wrist and said lightly, "You're quite bold. Trying to rob me?"
He squeezed slightly, and a faint "crack" sound was heard.
Ao Ge was covered in cold sweat, his face pale. He felt as if his hand bones were shattered.
He had always been proud of his powerful physique, but it could not withstand the opponent's gentle squeeze. He was immediately terrified and trembled.
Without hesitation.
He immediately knelt before Ji Mo and begged for mercy, "Sir, spare my life."
He was as submissive now as he was arrogant before.
"Hand it over."
Ji Mo released Ao Ge and, imitating him, snatched the storage bag that Ao Ge had just stolen from the Gray Curse Flame Adventure Group.
He had to admit, shouting "Hand it over" while snatching things from others gave him an indescribable sense of pleasure.
However, after he examined these storage bags, that pleasure immediately disappeared.
What junk were these?
They were all medicinal herbs, ores, and broken items dug from the ground, still covered in mud. There was nothing valuable at all.
"Do you have any treasures on you? Take them out?"
Ji Mo stuffed the storage bags to Ning Wenjing and was about to interrogate Ao Ge when a cloud of smoke exploded before his eyes.
When the smoke cleared, Ao Ge had vanished.
Ji Mo saw clearly that the opponent had transformed into a yellow light and disappeared into the ground.
"It's a Ground-Evasion Talisman. This guy is fast."
Ning Wenjing explained that the Ground-Evasion Talisman was a life-saving treasure for escape, a disposable item, and quite valuable.
It seemed Ao Ge had made quite a fortune to possess such a precious item.
"A spiritual talisman that can burrow into the ground!"
Ji Mo's eyes lit up. This was a good thing. The guy might have more of them, and he had to find a way to snatch them.
He had been too hasty.
He had let such a fat sheep slip through his fingers.
"Thank you, sir, for teaching Ao Ge a lesson and helping us recover our property."
The captain of the Gray Curse Flame Adventure Group, along with over a dozen team members, came forward to thank Ji Mo.
At the same time, they looked expectantly at the storage bags in Ning Wenjing's hand, indicating they wanted them back.
Ning Wenjing instinctively wanted to return them, but Ji Mo stopped her and asked, "Are these guys good people?"
Ning Wenjing shook her head. The Gray Curse Flame Adventure Group had a very bad reputation. What Ao Ge had said earlier was correct; this adventure group had done many unsavory deeds.
Of course, the Demon Emperor Ao Ge had an even worse reputation. He was a notorious great thief who enjoyed robbing others. Most weaker adventure groups had been robbed by him.
Confirming that the group before him were not good people, Ji Mo immediately smiled and said, "Do you have any more good stuff? Hand it all over."
He felt no psychological burden in robbing these villains.
The members of the Gray Curse Flame Adventure Group were stunned. They thought they had encountered a righteous person who helped the weak, but instead of driving away the wolf, they had ushered in a tiger.
This dark-skinned human was clearly no easy target. He had easily crushed Ao Ge's hand just now, showing immense ferocity.
They dared not resist at all and could only watch helplessly as Ji Mo plundered them clean, even taking away every single copper coin.
Ji Mo collected a lot of silver fragments, a delighted smile on his face. As a man, he always felt insecure without some silver in his pocket.
"Hand it over."
Ning Wenjing was observant and noticed that the captain's expression was not right. From a hidden pocket in his sleeve, she found a small storage bag.
Inside were two Emperor Artifacts, over a dozen pieces of rare metal, and several bottles of sixth and seventh-grade pills.
This was the captain's life's savings, a portion of which he had obtained by robbing other adventure teams. Now it had fallen into Ning Wenjing's hands.
Ji Mo was a miser and was not interested in these items, giving them all to Ning Wenjing.
Ning Wenjing felt incredibly pleased. This must be the benefit of following a savior. Such a large windfall was enough to support the village for decades.
Both were satisfied and did not trouble the Gray Curse Flame Adventure Group further, continuing their journey.
Watching Ji Mo and Ning Wenjing disappear into the distance, the captain's face turned red, and he roared with gritted teeth, "This damned charcoal-head! When we return to Fengmo City, I will definitely find a way to invite an Immortal-level expert to tear this villain to shreds."
Having his life's savings robbed, he could not swallow his anger.
"Captain, don't forget the recent rumors in Fengmo City about the black-faced human."
A member of the adventure team reminded him with lingering fear.
Upon hearing this, everyone present showed expressions of extreme terror.
The rumors about the black-faced human had been spreading like wildfire recently. That brutal human had, in a single day, smashed and killed several Immortal-level experts.
The captain's face instantly turned green. He increasingly felt that he had encountered the legendary Ji Hei Tou and quickly threatened everyone, "What I just said was just an angry outburst. Keep it in your hearts. Anyone who dares to leak it, I will kill him."
After saying this, he dared not linger and led his team away to avoid trouble.
On a small hillside thirty miles away.
Ao Ge gasped for air, bandaging his almost crushed right arm, muttering curses.
He was so angry. He had been robbing others for decades, and now, after spending his days hunting geese, he had been pecked by one. It was his turn to be robbed.
Thinking about the wasted Ground-Evasion Talisman to escape, he felt immense heartache.
"That black-faced guy, could he be the rumored Mr. Ji Hei Tou?"
Ao Ge muttered, then shook his head violently. "No, it definitely isn't. What is Mr. Ji's status? Why would he do something as demeaning as robbing?"
Although he denied it verbally, he knew in his heart that he had most likely encountered the terrifying Ji Hei Tou. Otherwise, who could easily crush his bones without using spiritual energy?
He swallowed a few healing pills and sat cross-legged on the ground, circulating his energy to heal.
After an unknown amount of time, a surprised voice sounded in his ear.
"Tsk tsk, it really is a small world!"
Ao Ge opened his eyes in panic and saw a familiar black face and a whistling, large mouth.
He was knocked unconscious on the spot.
When he woke up, he found that he had been thoroughly robbed, with only a pair of underpants left on him.
Because Ao Ge was wearing precious fur, Ning Wenjing had stripped it off.
Ji Mo's smile was extremely brilliant. Ao Ge was truly a fat sheep. He had found a lot of gold notes on him, and even a Ground-Evasion Talisman.
He was in a very good mood, revealing his white teeth, and smiling at the trembling Ao Ge, he said, "Do you believe in light?"
Ao Ge shook his head blankly. He had lived in the Human-Demon Ancient Battlefield ruins for years and rarely saw the sun. How could he believe in light?
"Alas, what a pity."
Ji Mo sighed lightly and continued, "Looking at your face, your destiny is actually quite good, but your name is too weak. I originally wanted to give you a domineering name, but unfortunately, you don't have the fate for it."
"Are you Mr. Ji?"
Ao Ge recovered from his shock and asked.
Seeing Ji Mo nod, his heart was overjoyed, thinking that a great opportunity had befallen him. He excitedly pleaded, "Please grant me a name, Mr. Ji."
"Hmm, you are greedy for wealth and profit, blinded by money, and have lost your innocence. How about this, from now on, your name will carry the meaning of profit, to remind yourself. Your new name is... Ao Li Ge!"
Ji Mo said with a serious expression.
