Zhao Li Xin's light comment made Sanguan Wu Hao's blood boil with anger even before the destruction of Sanguan family Sanguan Wu Hao became the scapegoat of the family, it's not enough that he lived his whole life in the shadow of Sanguan Wu Ci, even his father Sanguan Jin Sheng thought he was a disappointment, a disgrace So when Zhao Li Xin showed up she thought people would finally find another object to humiliate and despise.
He thought that having Zhao Li Xin will divert his disappointment from him and maybe...just maybe, his father would stop thinking badly of him, so one could imagine how shocked Sanguan Wu Hao was when he found out Zhao Li Xin's real identity was Long Ming.
And to make matters worse, Long Ming never meant to admit to the Sanguan family he didn't care about Sanguan Jin Sheng, or the name Sanguan everything Sanguan Wu Hao wanted was meaningless in front of Zhao Li Xin.
Zhao Li Xin's talent and strength were so far above everyone even Sanguan Wu Ci to the point Zhao Li Xin didn't need anyone to gain a foothold in the world, she didn't submit to anyone, nor did he fears anyone, Zhao Li Xin was everything he ever dreams of.
Annoyed, embarrassed, angry, and jealous engulf Sanguan Wu Hao's heart like a tight-thick blanket that suffocated his mind and after Zhao Li Xin destroyed his family he had every reason to use every means to destroy Zhao Li Xin.
"You son of a bitch, I will kill you!" Wu Hao's eyes shone with furry soon after dark grey veins bulged out of his neck and face as he roared his canines and hooves grew in rapid speed at the same time sanguan Sanguan Wu Hao's body began to writhe making horrible sounds as if his bones snapped and connected.
Lory, Girsha, and Zhao Li Xin watched quietly, nevertheless, Lory's vigilance grew every second meanwhile, Zhao Li Xin's expression remain stoic almost like he was bored but those who were close to him would know that right now he had carefully calculated the enemy's strength and weakness.
[Another Lesser-Demon huh?] Girsha scoffed with great disdain.
[Yeah, they popped up here and there like cabbage...] thought she was joking but her whole body braced for a fierce battle.
[I wonder, who do you think he sacrificed for this power?] Girsha never cared about human life and death like humans don't care about the death of dogs or cats out there for the same reason as Girsha, they are too numerous and their lifespan is not long then why dizzying but not like human animals were driven by their desire which makes them quite interesting.
[Doesn't matter, we had to kill him eventually] Lory released her arrow taking the opportunity Sanguan Wu Hao hadn't completely transformed.
But suddenly a shadow appeared to repel Lory's attack, the presence of the mysterious figure shook Lory to her spine.
"Wei Zu Tian!" Lory gasped she then gives a quick glance at Zhao Li Xin "I thought you already killed him?"
"I did..." Zhao Li Xin narrowed his eyes he remember he wrecked Wei Zu Tian's chest to the point his upper body should not be intact.
[Lory, I don't think that person is alive] Girsha suddenly chimed in.
"What?" Lory widened her eyes, "Is he a living dead?"
"A living dead?" Zhao Li Xin was just as shocked, although the world of cultivators was as magical as the lives of the Gifted people but even he never thought that reviving corpses was possible.
"This is a high-level necromancer, I only read about it in a book but never met one personally." Lory's expression became tense as she remembered that dealing with the undead was very difficult.
"How to kill the undead?" Zhao Li Xin did not have the same worries as Lory, in his opinion, it made no difference whether the enemy was alive or not, in the end, they all had weaknesses.
"The undead is controlled by the master who brought them to life, so we have to find the puppeteer," Lory said.
"Is he the puppeteer?" Zhao Li Xin glance at sanguan Wu Hao.
Lory turn her eyes at Sanguan Wu Hao and then to Wei Zu Tian then she shook her head in uncertainty "I'm not sureā¦"
The next second stumbling Wu hao and Wei Zu tian simultaneously lunged at them, Lory fired double arrows at them then the wings behind her spread out, Lory then summoned a long sword from her ring. Meanwhile, flames lit up around Zhao Li Xin like a small tornado, and his dark eyes flashed dangerously as a smirk spread across his face, Wu Hao roared as he streched his claws to tear Zhao Li Xin apart but it turned out that the only thing he attacked was Zhao Li Xin after images and the real figure appear behind Sanguan Wu Hao, Zhao Li Xin then launched a palm cover with fire right at Sanguan Wu Hao's back.
The burning sensation seeps into his bones causing pain that is so intense it makes Sanguan Wu Hao let out an excruciating scream.
Sanguan Wu Hao reflexively jumped away from Zhao Li Xin but Zhao Li Xin didn't let him run he continue to chase Sanguan Wu hao while launching a barrage of attacks.
In a meantime, Wei Zu Tian moved at a high speed toward Lory, to weaken his movement Lory launched wind blades at Wei Zu Tian alas her attack was easily dodged and without slowing down Wei Zu Tian continued to run towards Lory blankly.
Unperturbed Lory flew towards Wei Zu Tian as well and then slashed her sword at his direction but Wei Zu Tian able to block her sword with his bare arm which seemed to be made of iron.
Lory frowned but she didn't have time to shock she turn her body around and then swung her sword again immediately the sound of fighting echoed throughout the cave.
During the fight Sangguan Wu Hao underwent many changes not only in his fangs and nails, but his body was also getting bigger and bigger as a result his muscles grew significantly, then grayish coarse hairs grew on his body and face, and finally, a sharp thorn grew on his elbow resembling elephant tusks.
Sanguan Wu Hao's movements grew more agile as well as his strength, Zhao Li Xin could feel a tingling sensation in his hands every time he blocked Sanguan Wu Hao's attacks, but that's okay because he hasn't used half of his strength either.
Rather than Sanguan Wu Hao, he was more worried about Lory therefore during the fight Zhao Li Xin kept watching Lory from the corner of his eye, even though Lory was strong and accompanied by Girsha he couldn't stop worrying about her.
Sanguan Wu hao seeing Zhao Li Xin's concentration, not on him made him even angrier, <strong>"ALL EYES ON ME!"</strong> he shouted it was a childish wash of anger but Zhao Li Xin ignore him.
He wouldn't let Zhao Li Xin ignore him any further, hence Sanguan Wu Hao increased his attack, he hated seeing Zhao Li Xin's handsome face and even Sanguan Wu Ci would appear ordinary in front of Zhao Li Xin, jealousy and hatred gnawing inside him, just for once he wished he could rip off Zhao Li Xin's face.
Annoyed by Sanguan Wu Hao's crazy attack, Zhao Li Xin opened his palm soon tens of strands of fire emerged from his hand and wrapped around Sanguan Wu Hao.
Trapped by the flames Zhao Li Xin Sanguan Wu Hao struggled frantically to free himself but the strands of fire tied him even tighter and the fire burned his skin he could smell his flesh burning.
The strand stabbed deep into his skin then suddenly dozens of women jumped out of nowhere attacking Zhao Li Xin, a sudden disturbance that made Zhao Li Xin's strength weaken, and then two women appeared who sacrificed themselves to help Sanguan Wu Hao out of the flames that bound him.
As a result, the women were burned from their hands to their chests but strangely they didn't look in pain, their eyes were as blank as Wei Zu Tian's but their efforts were not in vain because Sanguan Wu Hao was free from his bonds.
Meanwhile, Zhao Li Xin was surrounded by five women who attacked him one after another even though they weren't strong but they were enough to disturbed his concentration.
Somewhere else, Lory was facing a fierce battle with Wei Zu Tian, Lory had managed to injure Wei Zu Tian several times but since the undead didn't feel any pain it didn't reduce his speed or strength and because Wei Zu Tian's previous level as a cultivator was already very high this caused fighting him is not an easy task, wound start to show on her skin but she had no time to heal herself.
[Lory, this is not working we must find the puppeteer!] the anxiety coated Girsha's voice.
Lory raised her hand to create a barrier to block Wei Zu Tian's attack before she pierce her sword into the ground and a giant icicle erects from the ground it thrust Wei Zu Tian into his stomach, Lory knows it will not stop Wei Zu Tian but it will buy her some time to think.
[I don't think Sanguan Wu Hao is the puppeteer, there must be someone else!] Lory warily swept her gaze around her to the entire dark cave, there is no enemy more terrifying than one that cannot be seen.
Suddenly a little boy who was no more than 10 years old dashed toward Lory while drawing a sword at her, Lory's reflex swinging her sword made the little boy's sword fall from his grip but because the opponent was a child for a moment Lory hesitated.
That's when the boy took the opportunity the boy took out the dagger hidden from his sleeve and then plunged it into Lory's chest, surprised Lory didn't have time to react, luckily Girsha activated a wind barrier which pushed the boy away.
<strong>"LORY!"</strong> Zhao Li Xin's voice was tight with panic.
Lory didn't realize that she was getting closer to the cliff, maybe because she was still shocked by the appearance of a small child who attacked her, unknowingly her feet tripped over a pebble it making her lose her balance luckily Girsha spread his wings and with one swoop Girsha's wings carrying Lory into the air.
Lory then looked at the empty-eyed boy on the ground and her stomach churned when she realized that the boy was just another living dead.
Lory then turned her head towards Zhao Li Xin, worry in his eyes showing then a gentle smile appeared on her beautiful face indicating that she was fine as soon as Zhao Li Xin heaved a sigh of relief.
"You seem to like her very much" Sanguan Wu Hao sneered, "Too bad she won't live long...."
Zhao Li Xin's expression stiffen, "What are you talking about?"
Suddenly a giant pillar fell on top of Lory, she quickly flies sideways but then another giant pillar fell on her again, Lory flew backward but the giant pillar started falling on her repeatedly it felt like she was a nail and the ceiling is a hammer.
"Dammi*, is someone playing whack a mole with me!" Lory shouted angrily, as if hearing Lory's fury three giant pillars fell above her at the same time.
The surface of the gigantic pillar that fell on top of her reflected in her purplish eyes, Lory held her breath as he could only mutter briefly "Uh-oh"
