YM778.TV Chapter 17
This could be said to be the most dangerous place in the mystic realm. Most beast tamers were unwilling to come here, but Mu Xuan had no choice but to come for the sake of spatial beast tamers.
The scenery of the Life-Reaping Cliff was very beautiful. Every strange cliff seemed to give a different vibe, but it was hard to tell what that vibe was.
Mu Xuan didn’t mind. After he arrived, he began to find a suitable terrain to stay in temporarily.
This time, in order to find a spatial beast, he took a week of vacation in advance.
Mu Xuan had safely arrived at the Life-Reaping Cliff, but a certain someone following behind him wasn’t so lucky…
“Damn overlord-level demon beast, it made me take a detour of more than ten kilometers…” The black-clothed man cursed as he traveled carefully. Because of the appearance of an overlord-level demon beast, he took a big detour.
Suddenly, the man in black stiffened. He had actually unknowingly barged into the hunting scene of a group of wolf beasts.
“Brothers of the wolf race, please carry on. I was just passing by, passing by…” As the man in black spoke, he instantly accelerated and escaped.
In the next moment, extreme anger rose in the wolf beasts’ eyes. They roared and chased after him…
The danger at night in the mystic realm was very high. Fortunately, Mu Xuan was willing to spend money and was sufficiently prepared. He brought a sleeping bag that could cover his aura and safely passed the first night.
Somewhere on the Life-Reaping Cliff, the black-robed man was lying on the ground. He no longer had the strength to curse. He was covered in injuries and looked extremely miserable.
“Damn employer, after I finish dealing with the target, I, Ghost Rat, will definitely teach you a lesson!!!”
The next morning, just as the sky lit up, Mu Xuan had already started working. He relied on the information panel to search for the spatial beast that might exist.
Mu Xuan realized that there were really many demon beasts in the area of the Life-Reaping Cliff. If it weren’t for the fact that the habitat he was searching for was hidden and he had concealed his aura, spending the night here would be courting death.
Suddenly, Mu Xuan discovered a different information panel.
[Cao Gui]
Species: Human (Heavily injured state)

[Soul Chasing Ghost Rat]

Introduction: A Soul-Chasing Ghost Rat that evolved from a Soul-Chasing Rat. It is proficient in the aura search technique. Its speed is extremely fast, like a ghost, and it has a terrifying soul poison. If you don’t want to die, please avoid being kissed by it!
“A beast tamer with three top commander-level beasts, and a tracking-element beast at that?!” Mu Xuan’s eyes narrowed. There was something wrong with this guy hiding underground.
After all, the Life-Reaping Cliff was a relatively remote place in the South Mountain Mystic Realm. Usually, there was not even a person there, but now, a beast tamer with two commander level beasts had suddenly appeared in a short period of time. This was a little too much of a coincidence.
“Could it be that this guy also discovered the spatial beast in the Life-Reaping Cliff?!
“No, this guy’s main beast is the Soul-Chasing Ghost Rat. It’s proficient in tracking, and it already has three beasts. How can it still have mental strength to contract a fourth beast?!
“Could it be that it’s here to kill me?
“This is quite likely!”
At this moment, Mu Xuan’s eyes revealed a ferocious glint. As the saying went, the one who attacked first would gain the upper hand, and the one who attacked later would suffer. He planned to kill this guy first!
Mu Xuan thought about the inconspicuous underground cave where Cao Gui was resting and quickly had an idea.
“Ice Crystal Spirit, go to the nest of Earth Bears you just discovered…”
At the bottom of the Life-Reaping Cliff, in an inconspicuous underground cave, Cao Gui, who was nicknamed Ghost Rat, got up with difficulty. He looked at the Soul-Chasing Ghost Rat under his feet and heaved a sigh of relief. “Fortunately, Ghost Rat’s injuries aren’t serious. Otherwise, the mission would really have failed.”
As a silver-level killer of the Dark Night Organization, Ghost Rat Cao Gui had always been known for his strange methods. Most of his mission targets died strangely, making it impossible to guard against him. He was famous in the assassin world.
However, killing an 18-year-old little guy this time almost made him die. This made Cao Gui very angry. He was prepared to change his habit and ruthlessly kill that 18-year-old kid to vent the hatred in his heart!
If it weren’t for that kid running around, how could he have fought with that group of wolf blood? Not only were his two beasts heavily injured, but he was also wounded. He had walked through the gates of hell.
However, for some reason, Cao Gui kept feeling a little uneasy.
In the next moment, Cao Gui saw the Soul-Chasing Ghost Rat under his feet chirping, making Cao Gui tremble. However, before he could react, a silly-looking grizzly bear rolled down.
“This is… Damn it, this is the Earth Bear!” In an instant, Cao Gui’s expression changed drastically. “Ghost Rat, let’s leave this place quickly…”
As soon as he finished speaking, the ground suddenly shook. Then, the entrance of the cave was opened, revealing a tall and majestic giant bear.
“A peak commander level Earth Bear…” Cao Gui recognized the other party, and the other party also saw him. Then, with an angry roar, the Earth Bear grabbed a huge rock and smashed it over!
“Earth Bear, this is a misunderstanding…” Cao Gui couldn’t help but curse. Couldn’t they tell that this was a setup?!
However, the intelligence of demon beasts… was indeed something to behold.
A few minutes later, with a scream, the Soul-Chasing Ghost Rat finally stopped the huge rock. However, it successfully fell into a near-death state and returned to Cao Gui’s body.
Then, Cao Gui spat out a mouthful of blood and directly fell…
“Roar!” The Earth Bear looked at the enemy falling and revealed a smug expression. Then, it left leisurely with the Earth Bear cub.
Not long after the Earth Bear left, Mu Xuan’s figure quietly appeared. He looked at Cao Gui’s miserable state and immediately smiled. All of this was in his plan!
After being unconscious for an unknown period of time, Cao Hun slowly woke up. Then, he felt intense pain all over his body. The intense pain made him unable to help but let out a scream.
“You’re finally awake!” A young voice sounded beside Cao Gui, stunning him. He couldn’t help but widen his eyes. “It’s actually you? How is this possible!”
This person in front of him was actually his mission target!
Mu Xuan chuckled and said, “That’s right, it’s me. Aren’t you surprised?!”
Cao Gui snorted. “Looks like I underestimated you.”
Mu Xuan smiled and his tone gradually turned cold. “You should be an assassin, right? I discovered this nameplate in your bag!”
As he spoke, Mu Xuan shook the nameplate with the words Ghost Rat in his hand. This was Cao Gui’s identifier. He liked to drop this nameplate at the scene of the mission target and deliberately spread his name.
But now, this nameplate exposed his identity.
Mu Xuan said calmly, “Do you have any last words? If not, I should send you to heaven!”
As for who hired the killer, was it important?
