The End of the World: I am the Blood Monster Princess (GL) - Chapter 78

If catching the Abyss Bl00d Blade with your fists was already a brutal head-on clash…

Then catching it with your bare palm?

That was nothing short of smashing an egg against a rock.

Even though Gu Xiaoran had tried his best to go with Su Mu’s force and push her away, his palm was still left torn and bloody.

As for Su Mu, being thrown to the ground by that force and rolling a couple times was no big deal.

“Seriously, are you all just gonna stand there and watch me die?!”

Gu Xiaoran couldn’t hold on any longer and quickly shouted for his subordinates to help.

At his command, the psychics who had previously retreated hurried back to assist.

“Huh? That over there looks like a one-on-one fight.”

“Well, your opponents… are us.”

Jiang Yiqin and the others stepped out in a line, blocking the path and immediately engaging Gu Xiaoran’s reinforcements.

Gu Xiaoran’s team had the numbers, but Jiang Yiqin and Chen Mo were just too strong. They couldn’t break through at all.

“D*mn it…”

Gu Xiaoran muttered, realizing the situation was going south. Su Mu had already gotten up and was cracking her knuckles, slowly and confidently walking toward him.

If they exchanged a few more punches, even if he didn’t die, his arms would be broken for sure.

Wait a second…

Cracking her knuckles? Taking her time?

Suddenly, a sneaky idea popped into Gu Xiaoran’s mind. It wasn’t exactly honorable, but at this point, staying alive was the only thing that mattered.

With that thought, he stared hard at Su Mu, but his feet began to step slowly backward.

“Huh? Are you scared now?”

“Big guy, come over here.”

“You messed up my hair—Mo Mo just cleaned it for me. If I take your eyes as payment, that’s fair, right?”

Su Mu’s eyes gleamed with madness, sending chills down Gu Xiaoran’s spine.

He kept backing away, and Su Mu didn’t rush—just followed step by step.

If she really wanted to speed up, Gu Xiaoran, even with his height advantage—nearly twice hers—was no match for her explosive power.

With this short distance, she could catch up in an instant. There was no way he’d outrun her.

As for retreating into his own team’s ranks for support?

The strongest psychics in the stadium had already been absorbed by Gu Xiaoran. The ones left posed no threat to Su Mu.

Suddenly, Gu Xiaoran turned and sprinted full speed toward the chaotic battlefield where the two sides were clashing.

Run, you idiot. I’ll give you a hundred-meter head start.

Su Mu watched him escape with amusement, clearly not worried.

Wait a minute!

All of a sudden, Su Mu realized something.

Gu Xiaoran wasn’t fleeing randomly in panic—he was sprinting toward a very specific target!

And it wasn’t the stadium entrance or his own people…

It was Chen Mo!

“Mo Mo, look out!”

Su Mu spread her fingers, summoning her bat wings, and turned into a streak of light as she rushed forward, shouting to warn Chen Mo.

She was still too late.

Chen Mo, caught up in her fight, never expected Gu Xiaoran to come for her. Off guard, she was pulled right into his arms.

“Mo Mo!”

“Gu Xiaoran, I’ll kill you!”

Su Mu’s bat wings slashed through the air, grazing Gu Xiaoran’s left arm and slicing off his left ear.

She didn’t even try to recall her wings—they stuck into the ground as she grabbed her Abyss Bl00d Blade and swung straight at his eyes.

You dared touch my Mo Mo?!

Die!

And that’s exactly what Gu Xiaoran was counting on.

Just as Su Mu reached him, he threw Chen Mo aside and focused all his psychic power into his eyes, taking the Abyss Bl00d Blade head-on.

At the same time, he grabbed Su Mu’s legs and hoisted her into the air, upside down.

Slash—

The blade cut across his eyelids and the corners of his eyes, filling his vision with bl00d.

His powers barely protected his eyeballs, but the rest of his face was a wreck—already ugly, now downright grotesque.

Still, he had managed to restrain Su Mu, at least for now.

After all, vampires aren’t bats. Hanging upside down like this, Su Mu felt dizzy and disoriented, with no sense of direction.

It was like grabbing a snake by the neck—suspended like this, her Abyss Bl00d Blade was useless.

Her vampire strength alone wasn’t enough to break through Gu Xiaoran’s ridiculous defenses.

Chen Mo and the others rushed over to help, but this time, they were the ones being held back by the surrounding psychics.

Suddenly, Su Mu remembered her bat wings, which had been left stuck in the ground.

“Huh? Looks like I walked into a trap…”

“But do you really think you can hold me?”

With a mocking smile, Su Mu activated her vampire powers, making her wings rise into the air.

“Guo Yang! What are you waiting for? Suppress her mind!”

Gu Xiaoran roared at a young man in the crowd.

Huh? Guo Yang? That name sounds familiar…

Chen Xi’s childhood friend!

Just as Su Mu was about to speak, she suddenly felt her mind being suppressed, and the energy controlling her wings scattered like smoke.

“Hey, Guo Yang, Chen Xi’s still alive. I let her go, out of the kindness of my heart. And this is how you repay me?”

“Not very nice, huh?”

“Help me kill Gu Xiaoran, and I’ll bring Chen Xi to see you.”

With no other way to fight back, Su Mu switched to verbal warfare.

“Chen Xi is alive?!”

Guo Yang’s dull eyes suddenly lit up.

“If I die, your precious Chen Xi will end up like me—just another monster.”

Gu Xiaoran said coldly.

“Huh?”

“You’ve got a way to bring that cute girl back to normal?”

Now Su Mu’s eyes lit up.

“I do. But unfortunately…”

“You’ll never see it.”

“Tank No. 3, show yourself! Aim at Su Mu and fire!”

Gu Xiaoran shouted, and a tank rolled up from the stadium entrance, pointing its cannon straight at Su Mu.

Firing at this range would hurt him too, but it was the only way he could kill her now.

“Huh? A mighty Tier-3 Starlight-ranked psychic, and you still need other people and tech to help you kill me?”

“You’re nothing but trash.”

“But before you fire… can I say one last thing?”

Staring down the barrel of the cannon, Su Mu pouted with disdain and chuckled.

“Got any last words? Go ahead.”

Gu Xiaoran said.

“Not last words really. I just wanted to say…”

“Chen Xi’s here.”

Su Mu pointed at the shifting dirt on the ground.

The next second, several Level 5 giant centipedes burst out of the ground and rammed straight into the tank, flipping it over.

Right behind them was their queen—Chen Xi—leading an endless swarm of insects.

“W-What?! I gave you power, and you betray me?!”

Gu Xiaoran’s eyes went wide as he activated his psychic shield and backed away from the oncoming swarm.

“Zerg, attack.”

Chen Xi gave the order coldly, her insect army charging past her and Jiang Yiqin’s group, heading straight for the stadium.

Anyone who resists—kill without mercy!
