Chapter 573 - Shai Zi
Just as his left hand touched Gao Zhijian’s hand, Li Huowang immediately chopped it off.
The severed left hand shot toward Gao Zhijian\'s face.
The bone spikes scraped Gao Zhijian’s scaly face, producing sparks. Gao Zhijian’s smile slowly disappeared as he said, “Hong Zhong. You\'re going too far here. I’m just trying to help you. How could you repay my kindness with hatred?”
Swoosh!
A headless young woman hurled Li Huowang toward Gao Zhijian, and the latter spread his arms as if to welcome Li Huowang.
The two clashed in mid-air; Gao Zhijian used his horns to stop Li Huowang’s purple-tasseled sword. Gao Zhijian parried Li Huowang\'s sword attack and sent the sword flying upward, which made Li Huowang vulnerable to further attacks.
A dragon claw wrapped with golden chains made a beeline for Li Huowang’s chest.
At the critical juncture, Li Huowang manifested Peng Longteng\'s figure, and Peng Longteng\'s large figure clad in heavy armor blocked the attack.
Unfortunately, Gao Zhijian’s claws pierced Peng Longteng, tearing open a large hole in her chest.
The Dragon Vein was like a stick that shot past Peng Longteng’s chest and approached Li Huowang at terrifying speeds.
Li Huowang raised his sword once more, and Gao Zhijian raised his horns without hesitation before swinging his head into the sword.
Gao Zhijian was confident in his move, as his horns were harder than Li Huowang\'s sword.
I can’t continue like this!
Li Huowang was busy trying to figure out a solution when his instincts warned him of a danger. He quickly crushed his left eyeball.
A strange light enveloped Gao Zhijian, slowing him down drastically.
Li Huowang had just sighed in relief when the Dragon Vein flew toward him from behind.
Li Huowang jumped up and barely dodged the attack, but a dragon claw descended upon him, grabbing him by the neck. Before Li Huowang could even struggle, several dragon claws came from all directions. They grabbed his limbs and raised him high up into the sky. Li Huowang\'s vision swam as five different forces tugged at him from five different directions. Just then, a grotesque cracking noise echoed as Li Huowang’s joints were dislocated. However, this was just the beginning of his suffering as his muscles were slowly being torn apart beneath the tugging of the dragon claws.
“Hahaha! Hear me out, people of Shangjing! Look closely! I\'ll show you all how to do a proper dismemberment! Those with money, please come here and support me, while those without money can just cheer for me!” Gao Zhijian shouted, and his voice echoed throughout Shangjing.
“AAAAAAH!” Li Huowang roared; he struggled to get out of his predicament to no avail.
Right as Li Huowang was about to be pulled apart, several white lotus the size of a house came from out of nowhere. They moved swiftly and surrounded the Dragon Vein.
Someone was sitting on the lotuses, and their chanting soon filled the air.
“The azure sun rises, and the white sun rises, too! The Heavenly Mater protects all. The red sun sets, and the violet sun sets as well. May peace befall everyone!”
The clouds rolled, and something unspeakable manifested. The Dragon Vein’s scales felt something, and they curled upward.
Gao Zhijian ignored Li Huowang and attacked the people on the lotuses.
This was Li Huowang’s opportunity to escape. His temples throbbed painfully as he willed Peng Longteng to appear.
Peng Longteng pried Li Huowang from the dragon claws, and he plummeted weakly toward the ground.
As he fell, Li Huowang saw someone that wasn\'t supposed to be here, so he thought that he was seeing things.
A young woman in white was floating like an Immortal before him. Most importantly, she looked incredibly familiar.
The young woman waved her hand, and a long silk scarf floated over and covered Li Huowang before pulling him lightly toward one of the lotus.
An ointment with the consistency of pork lard was brushed on Li Huowang’s wound. The pain instantly disappeared, and he felt so comfortable that he felt like he was sprawled out on a bed of cotton.
When he snapped back to reality, Li Huowang realized that he was on Bai Lingmiao’s lap.
“Miaomiao?” Li Huowang asked hesitantly. He wasn’t sure what was happening going on as he stared at the young woman before him.
A white lotus motif was on Bai Lingmiao\'s forehead, and her face was devoid of emotions. Moreover, her eyes were covered with a long white piece of silk cloth.
“Miaomiao, it’s really you!” Li Huowang hugged her after becoming sure of her identity.
Bai Lingmiao hesitated before hugging him back.
“Where were you all this while? I was so worried about you!” Li Huowang exclaimed, hugging her tightly. Li Huowang had been missing Bai Lingmiao so much to the extent that he\'d stuff her into his pockets if he could do so.
“Senior Li, didn’t I send you a letter? Did you not receive it?” Bai Lingmiao asked. Her voice was still soft, but there was no longer any warmth in it.
Li Huowang\'s heart skipped a little, and he looked at Gao Zhijian. Roughly half of the lotuses in the air had vanished.
“Hong Zhong, what did I say? I told you that I didn’t kidnap your woman. We\'re the Sitting Oblivion Dao. We don’t do something like that, but... we\'re supposed to deceive people, you know that, right? I just deceived you into thinking that I had kidnapped her. Don’t be mad at me for that, okay? This was all your doing. I did nothing here, hehehe~”
Li Huowang glared at Gao Zhijian. “Didn’t you say that you\'d only use the truth to trick others? Is that what you meant by truth?”
“Hahaha! You actually believed the words of a Sitting Oblivion Dao member? Hahaha!” Shai Zi laughed in mid-air.
