Chapter 501 - 485 - Tearing the Face (3/3)
It was one thing to lose to Zhou Heng, but to lose to a humble donkey as well?
Linghu Xuan was enraged and exerted all his strength in his limbs, trailing closely behind the Black Donkey. He was holding back a surge of unwillingness to accept defeat. How could he accept losing to a humble donkey?
Unfortunately, this kind of stubborn effort could only last for a short while—a half hour was okay, an hour was bearable, but any longer and it inevitably led to exhaustion and decline!
Even though Linghu Xuan was unwilling to admit defeat, how could he match the Black Donkey’s insatiable greed for treasures?
Not even close!
The Black Donkey had completely gone into a frenzy—its body exuding a heaven-shattering aura. It was as if nothing could stop it; for treasures, it would even dare to contest the heavenly king.
Although its posture was unbearably awkward, the humble donkey managed to twist its butt and glide all the way, leaving Linghu Xuan far behind.
Linghu Xuan felt like crying. It was too much of a blow—such a lazy, humble donkey could outpace him and erupt with a stronger will to fight under pressure. What else was there to commend him for?
If his family learned about this, he would inevitably face criticism from other clan members. Those ranked below him had been eyeing his position as Ninth Young Master, while those above him considered him a thorn in their side, closely watching so he wouldn’t surpass them. The moment an opportunity arose, they would all be too happy to kick him while he was down!
Linghu Xuan’s resolve to kill rose again. If he could seize the Star Core, it would be a great achievement, enough to make up for everything. And if he could obtain the treasured items of the Gold Devouring Clan, he could even break away and start his own faction!
