Chapter 85: Strike Again! (Please Subscribe)
"Wow, Qin Xiong, you actually killed President Wu!"
A sinister voice sounded, and Shi Houzhong reappeared under a tree thirty steps away from Chen Wuji. He looked at Chen Wuji with a mix of astonishment and fear, his eyes constantly shifting.
"... "
Chen Wuji glanced at him but didn't respond.
He activated his cultivation technique, refined the Qi Pill, and quickly restored the True Qi he had consumed.
"Amazing, truly amazing, it's incredible!"
Still receiving no response, Shi Houzhong continued to flatter and exclaim, "Wu Qian, President Wu, had quite a reputation in Fengzhou's martial world. I never expected him to die at your hands, Qin Xiong. It's truly fate, I can't help but applaud!"
Chen Wuji remained silent.
"Haha." Seeing this, Shi Houzhong forced a laugh and apologized, "I know my previous betrayal angered Qin Xiong, but I was forced to do it. Wu Qian made me do it. When I came to investigate earlier today, he caught me and forced me to lure you here. If I didn't agree, he would have killed me."
"By the way, he also gave me a poison, forcing me to take it. That deposit I mentioned earlier was actually the poison. If I didn't take it, I would have been killed long ago."
"I didn't explain clearly earlier because I was afraid Wu Qian had other hidden methods. But now, that guy is dead, finally relieved!"
"As for the poison I took during the day, I carefully analyzed it with my cultivation technique. It's not difficult to neutralize the poison, but it requires Wu Qian's blood."
Shi Houzhong awkwardly and pleadingly said, "Qin Xiong, can you give me two drops of Wu Qian's blood? It can flow out and mix with the soil."
"As an apology, everything on Wu Qian's body belongs to you. And I also have a 'Human Yuan Pill' on me, which I will give to Qin Xiong."
"Have you heard of the 'Human Yuan Pill'?"
Shi Houzhong's tone became excited as he said, "As everyone knows, the Ascending Heaven Realm, also known as the True Origin Realm, is a new stage after True Qi liquefies. However, relying on one's own gradual condensation of True Qi for quantitative changes to cause qualitative changes is too slow, too slow."
"Taking the 'Human Yuan Pill' is different. This pill can accelerate the liquefaction of True Qi, condense the divine consciousness, and directly ascend to the Ascending Heaven Realm."
"However, the best time to take it is when you reach the Ninth Layer of the True Qi Realm. So even though I obtained a 'Human Yuan Pill,' I have been keeping it without taking it."
"As for the harm I caused you tonight, I deeply apologize and am willing to give you this 'Human Yuan Pill.' I don't seek your forgiveness, I just hope you can accept it and give me two drops of Wu Qian's fresh blood."
Shi Houzhong looked at Chen Wuji with pleading eyes and said, "If Qin Xiong is not reassured, you can search Wu Qian's corpse first. After you take everything, I will go and collect the blood."
"... "
Chen Wuji still didn't speak.
He sensed the restored True Qi in his dantian space.
After a while, he calmly said, "Come and take it yourself."
"Ah? This..." Shi Houzhong was both surprised and hesitant. "Isn't that inappropriate?"
While saying this, he slowly moved closer to Chen Wuji.
Twenty-five steps.
Twenty steps.
Fifteen steps.
Ten steps.
Closer, even closer.
Suddenly—
"Whoosh!"
A black palm print fiercely slapped out, turning into a tornado and attacking Chen Wuji.
Sizzling sounds!
At the same time, black sword energy followed closely behind, like a snake darting out of its hole, biting like lightning.
Boom!
Chen Wuji, sitting cross-legged on the ground, also erupted with True Qi at the same time, forming a substantial protective force to resist Shi Houzhong's attack.
In his mind, he condensed "Soul Annihilation" and released it in front of him, slashing towards Shi Houzhong.
The flame sword in his hand quickly followed after the "Soul Annihilation" was executed, tearing through the tornado, wrapping around Shi Houzhong like a fleeting shadow, and hitting his feet.
"Ugh!"
Shi Houzhong, who launched the surprise attack, felt a slight pain in his brain and a momentary pause in his hands and body.
In the next instant, he heard two "puchi" sounds, and intense pain came from his lower legs.
Blood sprayed out as Shi Houzhong fell backward, his mouth wide open in shock.
"My feet! My feet!"
Both of his feet were neatly severed from his calves.
The Wind Chasing Boots on his soles, along with his severed feet, remained intact in their original positions.
"Ah! Ah!!!"
In intense pain, Shi Houzhong roared in anger, "You dare to cut off my feet? I'll kill you!"
Lying on the ground, Shi Houzhong propped himself up with one hand and fiercely struck out with the other.
True Qi erupted, propelling his body forward, intending to perish together with Chen Wuji.
Whoosh!
Swoosh~
Chen Wuji's figure flickered and disappeared from his original position.
Also disappearing were the heavy footsteps of Shi Houzhong, whose boots reflected a gleam in the moonlight.
"At a time like this, still putting on an act, who are you trying to fool?"
Holding the two feet, Chen Wuji coldly spoke, "Without your Wind Chasing Boots, why don't you run?"
Boom~
As his words fell, the air suddenly exploded.
It turned out that Shi Houzhong erupted with True Qi, enveloping himself, and truly charged towards the mountains behind him.
With lightning speed, in the blink of an eye, he disappeared into the darkness, vanishing without a trace.
Heh.
In response to this, Chen Wuji chuckled lightly, not in a hurry to chase after him.
Shi Houzhong was not afraid of Wu Qian, daring to make a deal with him. He relied on the Wind Chasing Boots on his feet.
Now that the boots and his feet were gone, how long could he escape?
How far could he run?
He was nothing more than a lamb waiting to be slaughtered!
Hoo~
Exhaling a breath, Chen Wuji endured the throbbing pain in his brain and moved to the side of Wu Qian's corpse, quickly searching.
A few porcelain bottles, two energy stones...
Gone.
Just these few things?
Chen Wuji refused to believe it and searched carefully.
This time, Chen Wuji discovered that the skin on Wu Qian's upper body was a bit off.
The sensation he felt when touching it was slightly different from the skin of an elderly person.
Fake?
A thought flashed through Chen Wuji's mind, and he reached out to sense Wu Qian's neck and a few other positions below his abdomen with True Qi.
The next moment...
Chi la!
A lifelike human skin was torn off.
On the human skin, a few lines of small characters gradually appeared under the stimulation of True Qi.
"I knew there was a problem."
Without looking further, Chen Wuji put away the human skin, took off the Wind Chasing Boots, and put them in a package, carrying it on his back.
Then, he swung his sword and cut off Wu Qian's head, just in case.
Swoosh!
With a light tap of his toes, he displayed lightness skill and followed the direction where Shi Houzhong disappeared, entering the mountains.
Once inside the mountains, he heightened his sense of smell and quickly flew through the air, catching a faint scent of blood in the air.
Swish!
Swish~
Under the moonlight, Chen Wuji pursued all the way, sensing his surroundings.
Soon, he arrived at a bend in the river, looking at the calm surface of the White Water River, a slight smile appeared on his lips.
"Quite an idea, trying to escape by jumping into the water?"
With the scent of blood cut off, Chen Wuji couldn't find the person for a while.
But it was only temporary.
Shi Houzhong was too restless.
If he wasn't dealt with sooner, there would be endless trouble.
Thinking of this, Chen Wuji took out the Wind Chasing Boots, checked the mechanism, and put them on his own feet.
Once he put them on, he realized that the Wind Chasing Boots could adjust their size, perfectly fitting his feet.
Hoo hoo!
Activating the mechanism, a whirlwind began to swirl.
Chen Wuji slightly controlled it and lifted off the ground, flying over the river.
First, he headed upstream, searching for a while.
After a moment, he turned around and searched downstream.
Half an hour later, Chen Wuji discovered a furrow-like trace on a shallow beach of a riverbank.
"Found it!"
