The sounds stopped coming from the other end. It seemed like Salan had her eyes on him now.

However, it was not anything to be scared of. They had basically wiped out the Black Vatican’s influence in their country. Salan was still on the run, so it would take at least a few years to plan anything big.

He was about to clean up the last group of disciples of the Black Vatican in his country. He would like to see how Salan was going to stir up any more trouble in the future.

“Mo Fan, I didn’t find the queen, but I smell something strange in the woman’s blood,” Liu Ru whispered, floating while staying invisible next to Mo Fan.

“Something strange?” asked Mo Fan.

After evolving into a higher-class Blood Tribe, Liu Ru was able to listen to the heartbeats and blood flows of living creatures. She could sense that Fang Shaoli’s heartbeat and blood flow were irregular.

Fang Shaoli rose to her feet. She slowly took off her jacket, displaying her tanned skin.

Mo Fan was left speechless. Was this woman seriously trying to seduce him? She didn’t need to do it in front of so many people!

“Careful,” Liu Ru frowned and whispered to Mo Fan.

Mo Fan glanced ahead and saw Fang Shaoli’s blood veins were surfacing on her skin, each of them colored blue…

More blue veins appeared, exposed everywhere upon her body. Her skin was being covered by layers of some strange black substance. It had the color of charcoal, yet a metallic gloss too!

Mutation! This Fang Shaoli was mutating!

“Mo Fan, the queen is inside her body. She is using her own body to host the queen!” hissed Liu Ru.

Mo Fan was dumbfounded. He did not expect the woman to be this crazy, actually hosting the queen with her own body!

Fang Shaoli was laughing wildly. Her voice turned from sharp to coarse, and eventually turned into the roar of a beast. Her muscles grew rapidly, like black granite. Her size tripled as she turned into a looming black giantess over six meters tall!

The woman’s face was distorted beyond recognition. Her tawny hair was the only thing left to prove that the creature was once Fang Shaoli. Its hateful eyes, poking out of the sockets, looked rather intimidating.

The Sudden-Death Poison Queen grabbed the feminine man beside it and started crunching him hungrily, as if it was trying to replenish its energy.

The man did not expect that at all. He was tossed into the creature’s mouth and was eaten within almost instantly!

“Mo Fan, what’s the situation now?” Lingling asked through the communication device.

“The queen has taken over Fang Shaoli’s body and turned her into a monster. It just ate a man alive,” Mo Fan glanced at the mutated Fang Shaoli in disgust.

“She must be the creature that Guo Wenyi saw eating the horse. The Sudden-Death Poison Queen was still in its weaker form back then. I’m close to finding Mu Ningxue, to see if the antidote I mixed can cure the poison or not,” said Lingling.

“Alright, I should be fine here. Liu Ru is helping me,” said Mo Fan.

After ending the call, Mo Fan realized that the Sudden-Death Poison Queen had eaten four other people, devouring them alive in a cruel manner.

The members of the Black Vatican were trembling in fear, yet none of them dared to run away. No one would feel good if they were eaten by their superior…

“We can’t let her continue, she is growing stronger,” Liu Ru took the initiative to attack when she realized that something was not right.

She sprang forward with a kick and traveled a hundred meters in an instant. She clenched her right hand into a claw and struck at lightning speed.

The blood claw sliced through the glossy skin of the Sudden-Death Poison Queen. However, it only produced an unpleasant screech, leaving a few scratches on the black skin.

“Such an outstanding defense!” Liu Ru was shocked.

Her claws were able to kill Warrior-level creatures instantly, yet it felt like she was helping the Sudden-Death Poison Queen scratch an itch.

The Sudden-Death Poison Queen opened a mouth that was full of poisonous lumps and burst into unpleasant laughter, looking down at Liu Ru disdainfully.

It suddenly lifted its arm and slammed it in Liu Ru’s direction like a heavy hammer!

The whole hall shook. The ground that Liu Ru was standing on was turned into dust. The creature’s strength was absolutely shocking.

Luckily, Liu Ru was pretty agile. She had already moved fifty meters away.

“Let’s attack together!” said Mo Fan.

“Mmm!”

The two approached their target from both sides. Mo Fan used his body to conduct electricity and establish an Electric Field across half of the Slanted Hall. The lightning flickered wildly as it spread around the place. The disciples of the Black Vatican were caught in the middle of it.

Liu Ru changed her attacking approach. She used her blood to form swords as thin as needles. She was trying to find the creature’s weak spots with her sharp eyes.

The lightning failed to penetrate the creature’s defense. Liu Ru also failed to find any vulnerable spots. The Sudden-Death Poison Queen suddenly unleashed a poisonous gust of wind and knocked Mo Fan and Liu Ru flying simultaneously.

As the poisonous wind swept past, Mo Fan suddenly had trouble breathing, as if his throat was stuck with phlegm.

Mo Fan was shocked. Was he going to die to the poison, too?

Luckily, the feeling was gone fairly quickly, allowing him to breathe normally.

It seemed like Lingling was right; the Sudden-Death Poison Queen’s poison had no effect on him because of his Demon Element!

Liu Ru too became a Blood Tribe because of his demon blood, so she was immune to the poison just like him. The poisonous air did not pose any threat, even though it had filled the entire hall.

Fang Shaoli lunged forward furiously when she realized that the poison she was proud of was not working at all. She was planning to swallow Mo Fan and eat him alive.

Mo Fan sank into his shadow, which rapidly split into two.

The Sudden-Death Poison Queen was surprisingly sharp. She was able to identify the real shadow and immediately chased after it.

Mo Fan was taken by surprise, and quickly went high up along a pole. However, the Sudden-Death Poison Queen simply leapt into the air as countless poisonous spikes poked out of her palms. As she flung them at him, they were like a giant mouth biting at Mo Fan!

Mo Fan was given a great scare. He immediately summoned his Black Snake Armor.

The Black Snake Armor managed to protect Mo Fan, yet the poisonous spikes were stuck in his arms, preventing him from moving.

“Lightning!’

Mo Fan immediately unleashed lightning over his body and directed the Lightning Strikes at the Sudden-Death Poison Queen. When the lightning finally came into effect, Mo Fan’s eyes flickered as he forcibly yanked out the poisonous spikes with the power of the Space Element!
