Chapter 162 Attack
Chapter 162 Attack
"Hu-hu-hu-"
Zhou Fan was running desperately, his mouth wide open, gasping for breath, his chest heaving violently, making a sound like an old bellows.
His forehead, cheeks and neck were covered with beads of sweat, and his clothes were soaked with sweat. He himself didn't know whether he was too scared or too tired.
He felt as if his whole body was falling apart, every joint was aching, every muscle was trembling, and he felt like his legs were about to lose feeling.
He had been running for a whole day and night, but even so, he did not dare to stop.
Because the sense of crisis lingering in my heart, like a sharp knife hanging over my head, still exists today.
Even though he was far away from that terrifying presence, the feeling never went away.
It seemed that as long as he stopped, he would die suddenly in an instant!
Zhou Fan's face was as pale as paper, he had a sad look on his face, and his eyes were full of despair and regret.
He was filled with remorse, wondering what kind of demon or monster had bewitched him!
I was so naive to think that the disciples of Xiaoyao Mountain were easy to deal with.
Can a disciple from Xiaoyao Mountain who dares to kill his master be easy to deal with? !
If it was really easy to deal with, why would people in Xiaoyao Mountain be willing to offer a reward for the inheritance of immortal arts? I am really too naive and stupid!
Zhou Fan never thought that he, who was considered one of the best masters in the Soul Blade Sect, could be defeated so easily by that rebellious man who killed his master.
If he hadn't abandoned his weapon at the critical moment, restrained the man, and decisively escaped, he would probably have been a dead body now.
When he thought of the eyes of the rebellious man who killed his master, he could not help but shiver. Those were a pair of eerie and extremely cold eyes.
At this moment, Zhou Fan suddenly felt as if all the strength had been drained from his legs, and they became limp and powerless.
He was startled, realizing that his feet had reached their limit. Before he could react, his whole body fell forward uncontrollably.
With a dull thud, Zhou Fan fell heavily to the ground.
He wanted to struggle to get up, but his body was limp and unresponsive.
At the same time, the ground behind him suddenly cracked open, and a monster covered with scarlet eyes jumped out from the ground.
The monster had eyes all over its body, revealing a terrifying and weird look. It opened its bloody mouth, revealing sharp fangs, bit one of Zhou Fan's legs, and then dragged him back forcefully.
Zhou Fan was terrified. He tried to struggle desperately, but to no avail.
He could only watch helplessly as he was slowly dragged back by the monster.
…
Li Zhi sat cross-legged on a big rock, his face was so gloomy that it looked like water was about to drip out of it.
His brows were tightly furrowed, and he was playing with a small knife engraved with inscriptions in his hand, his eyes full of vigilance and confusion.
Since leaving Huangni Village, Li Zhi has encountered three waves of attacks.
Each attack came very suddenly and violently. If Li Zhi had not always been very vigilant and had not had the Mosquito Demon standing guard beside him, Li Zhi would have been almost caught off guard.
Moreover, these attacks were highly targeted, as if they were aimed specifically at him.
This made Li Zhi's heart full of doubts. He didn't understand why he became the target of attack.
At the same time, he also felt a vague sense of inexplicable crisis. The sense of crisis was like a shadow following him, as if an invisible big hand was tightly strangling his throat, making it difficult for him to breathe.
This feeling had only appeared before when Master Liu was still around. Now it appeared again, making Li Zhi feel a little restless.
The restlessness was like a burning flame, spreading continuously in his heart, making it increasingly difficult for him to calm down.
Those who had attacked Li Zhi before were all killed by him with fierce means.
But when he encountered the third attack, Li Zhi realized that something was wrong.
Therefore, Li Zhi deliberately did not kill the person who attacked him this time.
Because he had his own plans in mind, he wanted to keep the person alive so that he could torture him to get some information that he currently lacked the most.
Suddenly, there was a rustling sound in front of Li Zhi. Li Zhi raised his head and looked over, only to see a hundred-eyed insect crawling towards him with its body covered with eyes.
The hardworking hundred-eyed insect was still tightly holding a person who had fainted in its mouth.
This person was the one who came from the third wave to attack and kill Li Zhi.
The man was motionless at the moment. If his body was not still slightly moving and he was still breathing, Li Zhi would have thought he was dead.
But Li Zhi didn't want him to die just like that. He still had a lot of questions that needed the person in front of him to answer!
Li Zhi slowly got down from the stone. He walked up to the man, looked at his weak appearance, and frowned.
He didn't have that much time to wait for the man to wake up, so Li Zhi stepped heavily on the wound on the man's foot.
"hiss--"
An expression of pain instantly appeared on the man's face, and his body twitched involuntarily.
He was awakened by the sudden pain. He opened his eyes suddenly and a trace of confusion flashed in his eyes, which was then replaced by horror.
The man looked around in panic, and when he saw Li Zhi in front of him, his face instantly turned pale and ashen.
Li Zhi squatted down, staring at the man with eyes full of oppression.
The man felt the bloody cruelty in Li Zhi's eyes. He trembled inwardly and kept dodging his eyes. He didn't dare to look Li Zhi in the eye at all.
Li Zhi's mouth opened into a ferocious smile. Without saying a word, he took the knife he had been playing with and stabbed it into the man's leg without any warning.
"Ah ah ah ah ah!"
The man couldn't help screaming in pain, and the shrill cry echoed in the air.
However, Li Zhi seemed to have heard nothing. He held the knife and twisted the man's leg slowly. The cruel movement and his expression without any emotion made it seem as if he was torturing a powerless puppet instead of a living person.
Just when the man was almost fainting from the pain.
Li Zhi finally spoke.
"Now, whatever I say... you answer. Got it?"
The voice was so cold that the man almost thought he had fallen into hell.
But the pain in his body reminded him that he was still alive in this world.
His face was covered with sweat, which kept falling like beads from a broken string.
He was in so much pain that he couldn't speak. He could only nod his head desperately, responding to what Li Zhi had just said.
"You, why are you attacking me?" Li Zhi asked calmly, but his hands did not stop moving at all, and the knife had already circled the man's leg.
The man was shaking with pain, but he didn't dare ignore Li Zhi's question. He said with a twitch: "Xiao...Xiaoyao Mountain...released...released...offered...offered a reward..."
Hearing this, Li Zhi narrowed his eyes, his face as calm as water.
