Old Monster's Fiend Brother

The creature slowly opened its eyes. Three pupils, emitting greenish glow. Luo Wei had goosebumps all over his body.

Mo Guan clenched his fists so hard until all the joints became white.

"I never thought that you able to make a contract with that fiend. No wonder.", he snarled. His eyes filled with hatred, as if wanted to rip Jiang Chen Lu to shreds.

"Make a contract?", Jiang Chen Lu kept showing his indifferent facade. "Why should I make a contract with him?"

Qiong Qi let out a hoarse laughter as it blinked its three pupils-greenish eyes.

"Humans and their narrow minds."

Next moments it tilted its head and peered at Luo Wei.

"A loyal one.", it growled. Slightly opened its mouth, Qiong Qi showed its sharp fangs. A black tongue moved inside its mouth. "What a coincidence. I am a little bit hungry right now."

Luo Wei swallowed hardly but he didn't move his feet. He gripped the evil artefact inside his palm even tighter. The creature was targeting him, thus he said to Mo Guan with slightly tremble voice, "Guan'er, you should run. I'll catch up with you later."

Actually he didn't know whether he could stay alive or not. But he cared about Mo Guan so much that he wouldn't let either the creature or Jiang Chen Lu to hurt him. That feeling gave him a strength to fight his fear.

The greenish glow emitted from Qiong Qi's eyes became brighter. All the spikes on its back stood up.

"Should we start, then?"

As it prepared to pounce at Luo Wei, Jiang Chen Lu interjected coldly.

"Who said you can eat him? Stupid brother. I still have a use of them."

Both Luo Wei and Mo Guan were taken aback. "Brother?", they exclaimed simultaneously.

Qiong Qi slowly turned its head toward Jiang Chen Lu. Inquired. "You want to use them? What for?"

Jiang Chen Lu didn't immediately reply. He lifted his hand. In his palm, suddenly appeared a black jade pendant. A golden ' 鹳' was craved on it. (Author's note : the word means 'crane'. Read : Guàn)

Seeing it, Qiong Qi's green eyes instantly widened.

"Which one of them?", it roared.

"Why don't you use your eyes better?", Jiang Chen Lu closed his palm and the black jade pendant magically disappeared.

Qiong Qi stepped forward, eyeing the two youngsters. Its gaze shifted between Luo Wei and Mo Guan several times.

"Turned out that slut managed to save him. How lucky. And you didn't tell me, big brother."

Jiang Chen Lu casually shrugged his shoulders. "I forgot."

Qiong Qi all of a sudden let out a long thunderous roar. So powerful that the impact pushed both Luo Wei and Mo Guan backward.

"Forgot, you said? You glutton! Inside your brain is only food. And you dare to call me stupid!"

Luo Wei and Mo Guan gasped in trepidation.

"Do you want to destroy my residence?", Jiang Chen Lu narrowed his eyes, said in displeasure.

"Who cares about this dog house of yours? Stubbornly keeps your little puppy, gambling with fate. You mad dog!", Qiong Qi again roared in wrath. "Just give her out and let her blood awaken by itself. Second brother told you years ago, your method will never work out."

Looking at two bewildered youngsters, Jiang Chen Lu sighed. "Fine. Fine. I know. Sooner or later it have to be done anyway. Now let's finish our business here."

Qiong Qi lowered its body. Its wings opened. Luo Wei got alarmed. Shouted at Mo Guan, he pushed his back. "Run! Now!"

Luo Wei activated his evil artefact. The bone bowl started to spin, slowly floating before him.

The bewildered and stunned Mo Guan suddenly woke up. But before he abled to react, Jiang Chen Lu had lifted his hand and shot a black sphere toward them.

Black huge transparent energy field formed, confining him, Luo Wei, and Qiong Qi inside.

Qiong Qi, seemed unconcerned, suddenly crashing forward in high speed. Luo Wei's bone bowl couldn't keep up with its speed. Qiong Qi flung its big and sharp claw downward, shattering it into pieces.

As his evil artefact destroyed, Luo Wei suddenly spat out black blood from his mouth and fell onto his knees.

"Ah Wei!"

Got panic, Mo Guan moved, tried to catch the internally injured and weak Luo Wei into his arms. But couldn't able to withstand Qiong Qi's powerful momentum, he was thrown backward, crashing into the energy field so hard. Falling onto the ground, blood sprayed out from his mouth.

The next moments, he saw Qiong Qi opened its mouth widely and bit Luo Wei's head.

The glow on Qiong Qi's sinister eyes turned from green into bloody red as it clamping jaws pulled Luo Wei's head, separating it from his body. The blood burst out from Luo Wei's terrifying and messy cut off neck. Some sprayed onto Mo Guan's paled face.

"Ah Wei!!", Mo Guan exerted all his might, shouting his already dead best friend's name.

Stood outside the energy field, Jiang Chen Lu didn't able to stop Qiong Qi. His facial expression instantly turned dark. Closing his eyes, he sighed heavily and murmured from between his gritted teeth.

"Foolish creature."

With a gulp, Qiong Qi swallowed Luo Wei's head.

"Not him.", letting out its black tongue, it stepped slowly toward Mo Guan.

Tears flowed down from Mo Guan's eyes as he saw Qiong Qi stepped on top Luo Wei's dead body and crushed it under its foot.

"Boy, I has been looking for you for a long time. Now let me see, without that slut mother of yours, do you still have your luck?"

This time Jiang Chen Lu made his movement. He waved his sleeve qnd the energy field disappeared.

"I said, don't kill him!", in lightning speed he flew toward Mo Guan, but Qiong Qi was faster. Letting out a low growl, its mouth parted, again showed its fangs smeared with blood.

"At least let me have a little bit fun playing with him."

Didn't have any strength left and drowned by deep grievance of losing his important person, Mo Guan didn't move at all, as Qiong Qi waved its claw and struck him. His body thrown hardly upward.

His sight never once left the crushed remains of Luo Wei lying on the ground, before finally his back side hit the ceiling and completely lost his consciousness.
