Chapter 102: Searching for the Mysterious Map Fragment, the Plan of the Demon Sect Leader_2
His claws clanged open, sharp as ten daggers!
"Die, little brat!"
He shouted maliciously and coldly!
At the critical moment, Su Chen could only, at the instant before landing, use the sword of blood-light to spring off the ground, his whole body shooting backward in a semicircular arc, dodging the attack of the monster's exceedingly malicious claws. Then he extended his left palm, a powerful whirlwind burst forth, suddenly pushing his retreating body forward!
With a buzzing sound, the sword of blood-light slashed through the monster's body, exploding into a crimson blossom in the air!
The monster's whole body trembled violently, as it stiffly turned its head like a puppet, a blood-red sword mark flashing across its neck like lightning...
"Ah~!"
The monster roared to the sky, its feet suddenly kicking off the ground, leaping forward like a frog, narrowly dodging the attack of the sword of blood-light, then suddenly turning back, its feet again ruthlessly kicking the ground, pouncing fiercely towards Su Chen's back in mid-air!
His claws clanged open, sharp as ten daggers!
"Die, little brat!"
He shouted maliciously and coldly!
At the critical moment, Su Chen could only, at the instant before landing, use the sword of blood-light to spring off the ground, his whole body shooting backward in a semicircular arc, dodging the attack of the monster's exceedingly malicious claws. Then he extended his left palm, a powerful whirlwind burst forth, suddenly pushing his retreating body forward!
With a "buzz" sound, the sword of blood-light slashed through the monster's body, exploding into a vivid crimson flower in the air!
The monster's whole body trembled violently, as it stiffly turned its head like a puppet, a blood-red sword mark flashing across its neck like lightning...
Then, under the monster's incredulous gaze, the sword mark expanded with a hiss, quickly bursting out a blood-red blossom!
"Ah!"
He clutched his neck, letting out a tragic howl, blood quickly soaking his hands, dyeing his upper body red and soaked!
In Su Chen's eyes, stars flickered, slowly condensing into a sword light, the tip of the sword thrusting like a snake towards the monster's heart!
"You damned little brat!"
The monster let out a ghostly, wolf-like howl of anger, its face twisted and hideous, directly spreading its hands to grab Su Chen's sword tip!
Su Chen snorted coldly, the sword tip sharply turned, a wind vortex mixed with blue and red colors suddenly appeared, and as the monster grabbed the sword tip, the vortex quickly expanded, drilling a circle of bloody wounds into the monster's rough, ghastly palm! But the monster went even more insane, hysterically howling in pain, twisting the sword tip in place, spinning Su Chen into the air. Then, extremely abruptly, an icy chill erupted from the surface of his body, striking Su Chen before he could activate a wind attribute defense!
It felt as if he had fallen into an icy cave, his whole body suddenly trembling violently, his internal organs twisting and shuddering!
Bam!
Su Chen let out a miserable cry, falling to the ground cold as ice!
The monster moved as swiftly as thunder, pouncing on Su Chen like a hungry tiger, slashing down with sharp claws across Su Chen, leaving shocking trails of blood! A series of messy blood explosion sounds were heard, Su Chen letting out a few cries of pain, before the sound gradually faded...
"Ah~!"
The monster ferociously howled to the sky, disgusting mucus endlessly flowing from its mouth. With blood-soaked hands, it snatched the sheepskin scroll from Su Chen's arms, violently opening it in front of its eyes!
"It's not!"
A green light flashed in the monster's eye sockets, its long tongue greedily and angrily licking the blood from its palm, shaking its head, "This is a fake map scroll..."
He fiercely threw the sheepskin scroll to the ground, turning his head coldly to look back, but could no longer see the shadow of Du Ziteng. Instantly, a surging intent to kill emerged, his gaze refocusing on the near-death Su Chen in front of him.
"I'll kill you!"
He viciously raised his claws, stabbing furiously towards Su Chen's belly!
Whoosh!
Just when he thought it would be a kill for sure, the originally near-death Su Chen suddenly sprang up like a carp, the sword of blood-light slicing through the monster's waist and belly with a bewilderingly eerie angle!
With a squelching sound, the monster's abdomen split open, a mixture of bluish-black liquid sprayed out, quickly dyeing the ground into a grave heaviness!
Su Chen held tightly to the sword of blood-light, his feet rotating on the ground, turning the sword of blood-light several times, slicing the monster's abdominal organs and intestines completely to pieces! The monster emitted a series of heart-wrenching screams, claws desperately grabbing the sword body, but it could never escape the fate of death.
Finally, he weakly lowered his hands, and his entire body fell backward.
Su Chen's eye twitched, his face extremely pale. The monster's recent ferocious attack, though it hadn't hurt his internal organs, had made his blood flow like a flood, losing more than half, leaving him extremely weak now.
He pressed on the sword hilt, struggling to stand on the ground, allowing the blood to flow and dye the ground red. His solitary figure gradually melded into the night...
"Sith, he seems about to collapse, let's go out!"
Hiding in the dark corner, Siger Meiruo said with a solemn expression.
Siger, strong and burly, frowned with his thick brows, murmuring, "Miss, don't forget, he had two companions with him."
"But he's lost a lot of blood; if not helped in time, I'm afraid he will..."
While Siger Meiruo was worried, a ghostly dark red shadow slowly appeared beside Su Chen. The upright figure and ghostly, eerie speed made the beast-lord level Sith in the corner tremble!
Siger Meiruo was about to exclaim, but Sith stopped her with consecutive shakes of the head and his gaze! She widened her beautiful eyes, unable to believe the figure lifted Su Chen, disappearing like a mist of blood!
Only when they were completely gone did Siger Meiruo take a deep breath, her pretty face pale, "Sith, did you see what that person looked like?"
Sith wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, shaking his head, "I'm sorry, Miss, I couldn't see him clearly."
Siger Meiruo shook her head and sighed, "That person's strength is formidable, in terms of speed alone, he surpasses you by more than one level."
Sith, who was never one to concede, could only nod, his expression still tinged with a hint of dread, "Yeah, his strength probably has already surpassed the beast lord, maybe even reached the beast soul level..."
Siger Meiruo trembled slightly, looking at the spot where the two disappeared with complex emotions, unresponsive for a while...
Under the dim light, lay Su Chen, his face somewhat regaining color, but his brows remained tightly knit. The external wounds had been bandaged by Ghost Howl, but the lost blood couldn't be replenished quickly.
Ghost Howl sat with a serious expression at the bed's edge, watching Su Chen's young yet resolute face, his mind recalling Mo Yue's instructions before leaving.
"Let him face more danger, don't save him from peril..."
Could it be the Sect Leader did this to train this kid? Is she really intending to rely on this kid to overthrow the orthodox factions?
Su Chen slightly opened his eyes, squinting against the light that pricked them, "Where am I?"
Ghost Howl's expression cooled, humming, "In the inn, if I hadn't appeared in time, you would have already died outside."
Su Chen's heart trembled, attempting to sit up straight but let out a low groan, forced back by pain.
"Don't move, the wounds are just treated; moving will only tear them faster."
Ghost Howl said coldly.
Su Chen nodded, lying back down, yet his visage turned even paler, "Has Du Ziteng returned?"
He still worried about that slightly devilish young man.
"He hasn't come back."
Ghost Howl snorted, thinking to himself, if it weren't for him, how could you have gotten so hurt? Yet, to not expose his hidden secret in the shadows, he didn't voice it.
Su Chen sighed with disappointment, squinting slightly, his mind wandering far as he stared at the swaying light. Outside, unlike before, the night had brought a weary stillness over Nadas City.
"Rest early, heal your wounds; we have other important tasks to do."
Ghost Howl said indifferently, then lay down naturally to rest on the floor bedding.
