Chapter 154: Da Mung
The Chimera's head was continuously smacked by Lee Tao as he scolded him.
"You may be a beast, but you don't need to act like one. Growling here and growling there. My ears are about to erupt from your stupid loud voice." Lee Tao shouted as he gave one last smack at the Chimera.
The Chimera could only whimper in pain as he tanked all the smacking.
What can he do?
Fight back?
That will be equivalent to courting death, and that was the last thing he would be asking for.
Sometime later, Lee Tao lay on the back of the Chimera as he waited for 10 minutes.
"Xiao Chu, what is a good name for this little bitch?" Lee Tao asked.
"Calling it a Chimera constantly doesn't sound good, especially when there are numerous Chimera out in the world." He added.
Xiao Chu nodded her head.
"Indeed, we should call the Chimera Da Mung." Xiao Chu said cheekily.
"Da Mung?"
"Un, Da Mung, meaning the Chimera is a big stupid dog."
"C-Can I not be called Da Mung?" The Chimera showed a pitiful expression.
He is already suffering at the hands of Lee Tao, and now he was forced to have a dumb name by a loli girl as well.
How could life treat him this harshly?
"Alright, Da Mung. That is your name from now on, and trust me. You don't want to anger Xiao Chu." Lee Tao grinned evilly.
Xiao Chu crossed her arms as she followed Lee Tao's action.
Da Mung, the Chimera could only lower its head as he accepted his new name with much reluctance.
'I hate Immortals…' Da Mung thought.
Sometime later, a loud commotion suddenly echoed from afar.

"Seriously?" Lee Tao cursed aloud. "You're a goddamn jinx, Da Mung. The instant you said an incident occurred, the incident decided to show up."
Da Mung twitched his big monstrous mouth.
'Why is this my fault again?' He cried inwardly.
Meanwhile, Lee Tao hopped off of Da Mung's back as he narrowed his eyes.
With a quick scan, Lee Tao noticed a group of people filled with scars and blood was running toward their direction.
"Da Mung, prepare to look ferocious." Lee Tao ordered as he waited for the group of people to arrive.
"This could be your chance to vent your anger from being bullied by us." He added.
Da Mung was extremely eager to do it as he exuded a tremendous killing intent.
'Hmph, I might not be able to do anything against Xiao Chu or Lee Tao. But these puny mortals… they shall receive my wrath.' Da Mung screamed inwardly as his eyes turned fiery red, ready to attack at any time.
Time slowly passed by, and Lee Tao could now see two females and a male running in a panic.
"We told you not to provoke that Scorpion beast, and now look at us." One of the females shouted coldly toward the male.
"How is it my fault that we didn't deal enough damage to the Scorpion? If you hadn't missed your blade, we wouldn't be in this situation."
"Hmph, you still have the nerve to spout nonsense? When we get back to our sect, I will tell the Master to punish you."
As their group continued to argue, one of the females suddenly halted her movement and pointed at Lee Tao.
"Look, there's someone over there and a ferocious magical beast…" She said in a panic.
Her words caused the other two people to stop their argument as they tilted their heads to glance at Lee Tao.
And sure enough, they were frightened by the appearance of Da Mung.
Da Mung flashed his mighty teeth as he growled at the group of people.
Meanwhile, Lee Tao acted like some gentle cultivator as he patted Da Mung's head.
"Shh, don't worry, Da Mung. They are not here to harm you." Lee Tao calmed him down as he turned around and looked at the group of people.
"Who are you and please introduce yourself. My Chimera here does not like strangers much, so it's best to introduce yourself quickly. Otherwise, I don't know what he will do."
"I-I'm Zhou Jingjing and she is my Junior-Apprentice Sister Zheng Wenling." Zhuo Jingjing stuttered as she introduced herself and Zheng Wenling.
Lee Tao nodded his head.
"Then what about you?" Lee Tao asked as he pointed at the male.
"Shouldn't you introduce yourself first before asking for other people's names?" The male asked instead, trying to act smart.
"I see… trying to act clever now huh." Lee Tao muttered as he gave a slight pat to Da Mung.
Da Mung instantly grinned wickedly as he stomped on the sand heavily and launched himself toward the male.
The male's face turned ashen white as he tried to create a spatial barrier to protect himself.
Alas, his cultivation and technique were extremely laughable in the face of Da Mung's claws.
Within a few seconds, the male was subdued by Da Mung effortlessly.
Da Mung raised his large paw up and stomped on the back of the male ruthlessly.
Blood soon splattered across the sands as Zheng Wenling was on the verge of vomiting.
"P-Please forgive him. His name is Huo Sheng and has offended you because of his ignorance." Zhuo Jingjing rushed toward Lee Tao as she pleaded for him.
As much as she despised Huo Sheng and his previous action for causing them harm, they were fellow disciples after all.
Meanwhile, Lee Tao chuckled softly at Zhuo Jingjing's words.
"Zhuo Jingjing, right?" Lee Tao smiled as he glared at Huo Sheng.
"You were clever enough to introduce yourself and your Junior-Apprentice Sister right away. Alas, your fellow disciple here isn't bright enough to understand his situation."
"Please forgive him. I beg you on behalf of him."
"Why are you begging me? I'm not the one thrashing him at the moment. It's my Chimera that is currently beating him up."
"B-But that Chimera is your beast companion…"
Suddenly, Zhuo Jingjing shut her mouth as she felt a cold chill running down her spine.
Lee Tao held a calm expression as he took a step forward.
"Listen, Zhuo Jingjing. We are in the Sierra Desert right now, and I have to be cautious at everything to keep myself safe and sound. Thus, when I see three unknown people coming at me with some injured face, I can't help but be suspicious of their motive." Lee Tao whispered softly.
Zhuo Jingjing swallowed some of her saliva as she realized just how dangerous the person in front of her was.
BLERGH!
Their conversation was cut short when Huo Sheng coughed up a mouthful of blood due to the trampling by Da Mung.
"I-I can compensate you for intruding on you." Zhuo Jingjing quickly retrieved some of her treasures from her spatial ring.
She then laid the treasures on the sand for Lee Tao.
'Hmm, isn't this a Roc Stalk?' Lee Tao raised an eyebrow as he found it surprising to see a Roc Stalk.
Picking it up, Lee Tao began to inspect the magical ingredient.
'This could be useful in the future.' Lee Tao thought as he stored the Roc Stalk back into his spatial ring.
Afterward, he whistled toward Da Mung, indicating to him to stop trampling on Huo Sheng.
Da Mung received the order as he released his gigantic paw away from Huo Sheng's back.
However, before leaving, Da Mung made sure to spit out some of his saliva on Huo Sheng's face.
And due to the sheer size of Da Mung, the saliva he spits out practically covered the entire face of Huo Sheng, creating a disgusting and disturbing scene.
Despite this, Zhuo Jingjing was still grateful for Lee Tao for stopping Da Mung from killing her fellow disciple.
"Thank you for forgiving him," Zhuo Jingjing said.
"Don't thank me." Lee Tao said in a cold tone. "We've made a trade and I was simply upholding my end of the bargain. You can now take that trash man out of my sight at once."
Now that he had gotten their loot, Lee Tao was no longer interested in associating himself with them.
"O-Of course, we will leave at once." Zhuo Jingjing stuttered as she returned back to Zheng Wenling's side.
Meanwhile, Huo Sheng struggled to get up before vomiting another mouthful of blood. His internal organs were completely shattered by Da Mung's ruthless trampling.
If he was just a normal person, then he would have died by now.
Huo Sheng's eyes had turned bloodshot as he held an immense killing intent at Da Mung.
When has he ever been treated this way like before?
Never, and he will definitely not let this incident go.
Just when Huo Sheng was about to leave with the help of Zhuo Jingjing and Zheng Wenling. Da Mung suddenly activated his movement technique as he appeared in front of them.
Stopping their path of escape, Da Mung held a cold expression as he raised his claws.
"You shouldn't have looked at me with such an intense killing intent." Da Mung growled as he slashed at Huo Sheng, slicing his body in half.
