"Hehehe! Run? Where do you think you're running to?" Jiang Chen let out a sinister laugh, his voice skillfully altered to disguise his true tone.
His laughter reverberated through the sky, his figure invisible yet his voice omnipresent.
The sound immediately placed immense pressure on Mo Hao.
'Damn it! That dark sprite demon has caught up,' Mo Hao thought.
'I can't pinpoint his exact location; the sound seems to be coming from one direction, but he could already be behind me.'
'This can't continue!' Mo Hao took a deep breath and accessed his Pretentious System Mall.
With 30,000 Pretentious Points remaining, he had enough to either enhance his cultivation base or acquire a valuable item.
After some consideration, Mo Hao made his decision. He spent 20,000 Pretentious Points to acquire a temporary battle power-boosting pill from the Pretentious System.
The product he received was extraordinary.
The pill not only offered a significant power boost, elevating his combat abilities to the Late-stage Transcendence realm, but also had minimal side effects—practically none.
Had he used the 30,000 Pretentious Points to enhance his cultivation base instead, reaching the Late-stage Transcendence realm would have been unattainable.
In that scenario, his odds of overcoming the dark sprite demon would have been significantly reduced.
'The true combat strength of that dark sprite demon is only at the Middle-stage Transcendence realm,' Mo Hao quickly considered.
'With this pill, my combat power can certainly ascend to the Late-stage Transcendence realm.'
'Add in the emergency measures my family has left for me.'
'Unless something unforeseen occurs, that dark sprite demon is as good as dead!'
'Furthermore, I can try to provoke him to reveal himself, making it easier to eliminate him.' These thoughts raced through his mind in mere moments.
Without hesitating, Mo Hao continued to fly forward, shouting, "You, demon race s.o.b., go eat sht! F** your mother! If you've got the b*lls, come out and fight me head-on. I'll beat you so badly, even your mom won't recognize you!"
A continuous stream of profanities poured from Mo Hao's mouth.
Jiang Chen, who was hot on Mo Hao's trail, was left stunned.
The insults Mo Hao used were phrases that had only existed on Earth before his own transmigration.
Had there been just one or two similar phrases, he might have considered it a coincidence. However, Mo Hao's curses contained a series of expressions that were all too familiar to him, making coincidence an unlikely explanation.
'Damn,' Jiang Chen's mouth twitched as he observed the cursing Mo Hao below him. 'Could this guy also be a transmigrator from Earth like me?'
'A transmigrator, huh? Then he likely does have a System.' Based on earlier clues, Jiang Chen had already suspected that Mo Hao might possess a System. Now, with the revelation that Mo Hao was also a transmigrator, his suspicion only deepened.
He had never anticipated encountering such a protagonist—a protagonist equipped with a System, who generally proved far more outrageous than those with material-based, heaven-defying trump cards.
Such protagonists didn't require explanations for many irrational occurrences.
'Phew! I still need to confirm whether he really has a System or not,' Jiang Chen thought to himself.
'If he does, I must be more cautious. Protagonists with Systems are the most unpredictable; I can't afford a careless mistake,' he grew increasingly vigilant.
Meanwhile, Mo Hao continued his barrage of insults.
"Hahahaha!" Mo Hao laughed uproariously, his face filled with disdain and mockery, appearing incredibly punchable. "You fool, you probably don't even understand what I'm saying!"
"However, you don't need to understand; you just need to know that I'm using the filthiest curses in the world to insult you and your family!" Mo Hao sneered, maintaining his sarcastic tone.
Jiang Chen felt waves of anger rising within him.
'Something's not right,' he thought. 'How can I be so angered by Mo Hao's vulgar language?'
'Could it be that Heavenly Fate is secretly influencing me?'
'Is it possible that my intelligence goes offline due to emotional disturbance, leading me to reveal myself and duel with Mo Hao, only to be killed afterward?'
'Damn, this Heavenly Fate is really annoying.' Then he took a deep breath to dissipate the anger welling up inside him.
At the same time, Mo Hao gradually realized that his taunts were losing their effectiveness, which irked him.
Back on Sky Blue Star, his ability to provoke others through insults had always been spot-on.
"No, this won't do," Mo Hao muttered, maintaining a thoughtful expression.
'This dark sprite demon is more composed than I expected. Provocation won't work.'
'In that case, I'll face him head-on!' With that thought, he abruptly stopped, his face turning pale as a sheet.
Furthermore, he shouted with feigned bravado, "Come on then! You're just a trashy demon, right? Come and kill me! This Young Master is right here. If you can even touch a single hair on my head, I'll kneel for you..."
As he continued speaking, his tone grew increasingly uncertain, creating the impression of wavering confidence.
'What is this guy up to?' Jiang Chen's brows furrowed slightly, his eyes filled with confusion. 'Is he deliberately appearing weak? Is he baiting me into attacking him? Ah, playing dead to catch the tiger, huh? Let's see what you've got.'
Of course, he had no real intention of attacking Mo Hao.
His move was merely a feint, designed to coax Mo Hao into revealing his true capabilities.
After all, based on the combat power Mo Hao had shown so far, he would likely struggle against him, the 'dark sprite demon'.
"Hehehehe!" Jiang Chen deliberately let out a boisterous laugh.
"What a timid human brat, daring to intimidate me. How laughable."
Then he feigned an attack on Mo Hao. "Die now, you foolish mortal!"
Whoosh!
A barely visible shadow appeared not far behind Mo Hao.
'He's here!' Mo Hao instantly swallowed the pill. His aura surged as he spun around to deliver a fierce blow.
But his attack struck only air.
Jiang Chen's figure shattered, dispersing like mist.
"Hehe," Jiang Chen's voice held a note of surprise, "As I suspected, you still have a trick up your sleeve."
"Mark my words, I'll definitely not let you off!" With that, he turned and retreated, even retracting the divine sense he had been using to monitor Mo Hao.
Immediately, Mo Hao felt a sense of relief wash over him; the uncomfortable feeling of impending danger vanished.
However, his mood didn't improve.
Initially, Mo Hao had believed he could eliminate that 'dark sprite demon,' but in the end, he had failed.
Now what? He'd used up the pill worth 20,000 Pretentious Points, but the enemy remained alive, and he hadn't even managed to act pretentious successfully.
This was far from what he had anticipated!
Moreover, he was left with only 10,000 Pretentious Points; he had nearly depleted his resources without successfully acting pretentious or proving anyone wrong.
This heightened the sense of urgency he felt.
'Damn it!' Mo Hao thought, his internal frustration palpable.
'I need to act pretentious and prove someone wrong as quickly as possible.'
'Otherwise, the pill I exchanged for 20,000 Pretentious Points will have been a waste!'
'Let's head back to the Moon Plucking Heavenly Sect first. There, I can find human forces; at least in a crowd, I won't be easily assassinated by that dark sprite demon, and there will be more targets for acting pretentious.' With that thought, he immediately set off for the Moon Plucking Heavenly Sect.
"Hehehe! Run? Where do you think you're running to?" Jiang Chen let out a sinister laugh, his voice skillfully altered to disguise his true tone.
His laughter reverberated through the sky, his figure invisible yet his voice omnipresent.
