Chapter 750: You Are Very Mischievous

Ren Baqian pierced Bor’s neck as soon as he struck with his spear. Even though this wasn’t the first time he had done this, it felt exceptionally weird this time.

After he collected his thoughts, he swung the spear toward the side, and Bor’s head fell to the ground.

Even though the empress had already reminded him, Bor’s blue blood still sprayed onto Ren Baqian’s leg.

At this moment, Bor’s corpse suddenly sat up, making Ren Baqian think that Bor was going to transform again…

However, his corpse merely sat there and twitched a little before falling back down again.

“He should probably be dead now…” Ren Baqian was speechless. This Bor had a pretty tenacious vitality.

It was similar to certain types of insects.

Hopefully, his body parts wouldn’t regenerate after getting severed like an earthworm.

Ren Baqian lifted Bor’s head and examined it a little. Unfortunately, he wasn’t able to derive anything from those compound eyes.

Ren Baqian didn’t have to check for breathing this time around… It would be ghastly if Bor’s head was still breathing after getting decapitated.

Previously, Ren Baqian thought that Bor had hair on his head. After lifting Bor’s head up, he realized that the messy bush on Bor’s head actually had a skin-like texture to it. It was slightly elastic and entirely different from the texture of hair.

It was also slightly coarser than hair.

However, at this moment, Bor’s face started moving again.

Ren Baqian almost threw the head away.

“Can you hug me? I don’t feel comfortable like that! You are tugging on my genitals!” Bor’s chopped-off head suddenly spoke.

Pow! Ren Baqian immediately threw the head to the ground.

He flew into a rage.

When will this ever end? Huh? Over and over again? Why is your corpse still moving? You wear your genitals on your head every day? What are you wearing that animal hide coat for then?

There was practically too much that he could complain about.

There was so much that Ren Baqian didn’t know how he should react anymore.

“Why aren’t you dead yet?”

“This is my last moment! Without my body, my head can’t last for too long!” Bor replied faintly with half of his face in the mud.

“If I hadn’t cut off your head just now, would you have survived?” Ren Baqian felt that he and the empress had been deceived by Bor.

This guy still seemed to look pretty lively… which wasn’t a good thing!

“I wouldn’t be able to. At most, I could live on for another two days.” Bor replied.

Ren Baqian looked at him suspiciously. Bor could actually still talk with his head cut off, but would only be able to last for another two days with his head still attached?

“I’m not human! I don’t lie!” Bor added.

You probably… Have some misunderstandings about humans! Ren Baqian thought to himself.

He cast a glance at the empress before using his spear to lift Bor’s head while using his other hand to lift up Bor’s body.

The empress turned around and smashed the mountainside a little to ensure that those butterflies wouldn’t be able to escape any time soon. They then made their way back to the valley where the Earth Yin Spring was located.

When they arrived at the valley, they saw a few of the winged cavalry warriors fiddling with a wooden tube.

“What are you guys doing?” the empress asked in a low voice.

“Your Majesty!” These men quickly stood up. Seeing Ren Baqian holding a head and a corpse, their faces immediately turned solemn before asking, “Are there enemies?”

Looking serious, the empress ordered, “Gather everyone and follow me.”

“Yes!”

Everyone got to their feet and hurried over.

Ren Baqian threw Bor’s head and body aside. Bor hadn’t spoken throughout the entire return journey, so Ren Baqian wasn’t certain if Bor was dead or not.

He stood by the side and watched as the soldiers walked past the body and occasionally took a breath from that wooden tube. He had no idea what they were inhaling.

He stopped and asked one of the winged cavalry warriors, “What’s that? Let me have a look!”

“Yes, Sir. This is a scorpion tube!” The man immediately handed the wooden tube over.

Ren Baqian then realized that it was a slightly large wooden tube with something burning inside.

There was also another thinner wooden tube that was inserted from the side.

“Sir, you simply have to inhale from here,” the winged cavalry warrior explained as he pointed at that thinner tube before departing.

Ren Baqian had no idea what this was and felt that it was rather similar to a smoking pipe from Earth. Could tobacco leaves also exist in this world?

After wiping the saliva off the tube, he lightly inhaled. A wonderfully fragrant taste gushed into his mouth. He then started to feel a little dizzy.

He was shocked as this feeling reminded him of that bowl of Golden Ring honey!

That thing had almost gotten him into deep trouble.

However, this stuff wasn’t as strong as the Golden Ring honey.

He merely felt a slight dizziness and recovered after a short while.

When Ren Baqian tilted the wooden tube downward, what poured out were plants that had been burned into white ashes as well as a chunk of a reddish-black substance.

He moved it around a little and realized that it was actually a scorpion.

These men were actually smoking scorpion!

The scorpion was left to burn in the wooden tube while the smaller tube was inserted to allow for the fragrance inside to be inhaled. The dizziness he experienced made him suspect that the scorpion was probably poisonous and that the effect manifested when he inhaled the poisonous smoke that was created from the burning scorpion.

“You wait here while I lead them to deal with those jade-waisted slaves.” The empress came over to inform Ren Baqian.

“Be careful, Your Majesty,” he responded.

Of course, what he said was redundant.

Both of them had traveled that route before and there wouldn’t be any danger along the way.

However, the empress had always enjoyed hearing such redundant words.

To everyone, she was always the strongest empress! As such, other than Ren Baqian, nobody would say such redundant stuff to her!

She nodded and left with the winged cavalry, leaving Ren Baqian, Qing Yuan, and Hong Luan behind.

Together with them were the crow general that was sleeping while standing up as well as the roaring emperor that was having fun on its own after it was woken up by the clamor.

Ren Baqian threw the scorpion tube away and used the spear shaft to nudge Bor’s head.

“Principal Ren, what’s that?” Qing Yuan leaped over and asked with a crisp voice.

Bor had compound eyes that were made up of countless visual units. This was entirely different from that of an ordinary human. These eyes looked similar to Ultraman’s, and Qing Yuan was very curious about it.

“Lift it up by its hair and see if it’s still alive!” Ren Baqian said.

“How can it still be alive! Its head has already been cut off! If it were still alive… I would…” Qing Yuan replied casually and lifted Bor’s head by its genitals.

Actually, Ren Baqian was rather looking forward to hearing what she would say.

He would then want to see her reaction if Bor suddenly opened his mouth and spoke.

However, Bor didn’t show any reaction this time and seemed as if he was truly dead.

“Principal Ren, you haven’t told me what this is! What has Her Majesty departed to do?” Qing Yuan asked again in the same crisp voice.

Hong Luan came over to join in as well.

“You can consider him to be the enemy of aboriginals!” Ren Baqian replied after pondering for a while. Bor wasn’t exactly considered an enemy since he was factually just a predator.

Ren Baqian took out some milk candies from his bag and gave it to them. The trio then sat there and ate the candies as if they were chit-chatting over melon seeds.

Afterward, Ren Baqian briefly talked about what he and the empress had encountered.

“So they are the troublemakers! This bunch of animals!” Qing Yuan and Hong Luan immediately cursed when they heard that Bor created those butterflies, but they didn’t know of any actual curse words to say.

“Her Majesty definitely won’t let them off!”

Ren Baqian was certain of this.

When the empress returned, she would probably gather all the winged cavalry warriors and wipe out all the herdsmen of Na souls in this area.
