"Disgusting?"
At those words, Zhao Chengming burst out laughing. He did not think Chen Mu was insulting him; on the contrary, he took it as praise.
His opponent thought he was disgustingly powerful. Was that not a compliment?
It satisfied Zhao Chengming far more, body and soul, than the flattery those elders had once lavished on him.
He had no idea Chen Mu had already selected the supreme saint body he had only just received, before he had even had time to warm it in his hands.
[Steal "undying immortal saint body"?]
Yes!
Chen Mu answered without the slightest hesitation.
[Stealing...] [Theft successful! Congratulations, host! You have obtained undying immortal saint body +1!]
"Huh?" The smile on Zhao Chengming's face vanished in an instant.
His face tightened. From sheer anxiety, his once-rosy cheeks turned deathly pale. Large beads of cold sweat welled up and rolled down his face, gathering at the tip of his chin before dripping onto the ground.
"How could this happen?" Zhao Chengming's tiny eyes filled with enormous bewilderment.
Where did my undying and imperishable power go?
He shouted the question inwardly.
He tried to establish contact with Weird Mist in the Divine Mansion through Thousand-Mile Voice Transmission.
My lord, has something gone wrong on your end? Why... why has my supreme saint body... disappeared? Zhao Chengming asked in confusion.
What could possibly go wrong on my end? Have you still not realized it, you imbecile? Someone has taken your saint body! Weird Mist's rebuke rang out in Zhao Chengming's mind.
What? My saint body was taken? Saint bodies can be taken? And who could possibly do something like that? Zhao Chengming grew even more bewildered.
He could not imagine who around him, at this very moment, could accomplish such a thing.
