Lou Xiaoyi saw a skinny baby pouncing towards him. The shriveled body represented that he had died of malnutrition! A pair of clear eyes carried a yearning for life as he reached out his hand towards him!
Of course, the baby didn't want to do anything to him. This was just an innocent person who was squeezed over by the surging souls.
He was still a hundred feet away. Another hundred feet and he would be able to catch King Chujiang off guard! This was his way of fighting. First, he would confuse the enemy, then he would make the final decision. His goal was to prevent the other party from using those inexplicable methods. Although he didn't really care, he still felt a trace of threat in the special environment of someone else's territory.
The baby was squeezed over, and he couldn't cut it in half with a single slash! This wasn't a matter of being soft-hearted, but a matter of bottom line. A little trouble that was destined to not be a threat. If King Chujiang wanted to use this to create a killing intent for him, then he was thinking too much!
In the time it took for a spark to fly off a flint, his left hand scooped up the baby. At the same time, he drew a circle with his long sword to cut off the other souls that were pouncing on him. Following the momentum of the circle, the long sword went towards the black chain. His body's forward momentum didn't change at all!
The black chain was as firm as a spear. It collided with Lou Xiaoyi's long sword and created a string of sparks. This wasn't a collision of brute force, but also a mutual exchange of internal energy. It was also at this moment that a few pairs of hands grabbed towards him from behind …
He had encountered this kind of situation before. When the long sword was entangled by the black chain, he actually had other methods in his arsenal. For example, he could use his left hand to punch, withdraw his sword, flip it around, and so on. It even included letting these souls grab him. It was just a matter of struggling.
This time, he chose to let himself be grabbed by a few pairs of hands. That was because he could immediately seal off the other party when he collided with the black chain. Time was of the essence and couldn't be delayed!
Just as the long sword swung out, relying on his rich fighting experience to seal off the black chain that was much stronger than him, he felt a bone-piercing chill from the back of his heart even without turning his head. That was an instinct bestowed upon him by three thousand years of fighting experience!
Under the instinct, his waist and abdomen twisted forcefully, shifting the dislocation of his bones and tendons. His muscles instantly bulged like steel!
However, this wave of cold energy was really too close. Because he had long gotten used to the harassment of those living souls' hands, this bit of distance really wasn't enough for him to make a complete response!
Because of his quick reflexes, the sharp weapon didn't pierce his back, but it still pierced his internal organs!
A dignified half-immortal, the number one sword in the universe that struck fear into the hearts of all opponents in the Cultivation World, was actually stabbed by a mortal. Who would believe this? But it was happening right in front of his eyes!
The wound was very deep, but this was not the most important thing. The most important thing was that the Netherworld Qi that belonged exclusively to the Netherworld was a great supplement to living souls, but to living people, it was a liver destroying poison!
But Lou Xiaoyi's reaction was different from what King Chujiang had imagined. This human cultivator didn't panic, didn't explode with rage, didn't heal his injuries, and didn't even turn around to look!
The soul of the infant in his hand was clearly a part of the plan. It was not torn to shreds in his rage. Instead, it was gently pushed aside …
It was as if nothing had happened!
The distance was already close to 60 meters when the human suddenly charged forward. It was completely different from the state where he was frozen stiff by the cold energy earlier. The living souls were simply unable to keep up with the human's speed. The dense area that was formed from surrounding and pouncing on the human was now in a mess because the human suddenly broke away. There were very few living souls in front of him, and they were no longer able to effectively slow him down!
When had King Chujiang encountered such an abnormal opponent in these hundreds of thousands of years? His black chain was also unable to turn back for a moment because it was too long. Just like this, Lou Xiaoyi had already closed in on him. His long sword didn't have any fancy moves, and it was just a simple sudden stab!
In reality, the sudden stab started from 60 meters away. With a kick, a step, and a raise of his hand, the long sword had already directly penetrated through King Chujiang's gorgeous clothes!
The sword qi of the mortal world burst forth …
This kind of attack was useless against a pure living soul, but it was very fatal to King Chujiang who had already comprehended a trace of Dao Insight. Because he was no longer a pure living soul!
He had always been good at scheming, and had an extremely deep understanding of the situation and people's hearts. A perfect assassination in an environment he was familiar with, but the curtains fell in the opponent's completely unreasonable sudden attack!
King Chujiang had some understanding. Those who were fanning themselves shouldn't face the villain face to face. This was using a weak point to attack the enemy's strong point, and this was the cause of his death!
For a moment, he was a little confused. Were his breakthroughs these past few years a gain or a loss?
After comprehending a trace of the Dao of the Netherworld, he finally broke away from the category of living souls, but instead, he lost his life here. Was the heavens joking with him?
Gaining the Dao, losing his life. If he could start all over again, what would he choose?
When King Chujiang was on the verge of death, all the living souls in the Frost Hell were no longer restless. They hid far away in fear as they looked at this existence who dared to kill King Yanluo. They didn't dare to resist, but they also couldn't stay far away. It was just like what they had been experiencing ever since they entered the Netherworld.
He was thinking, if this human wanted to know something, he might be able to keep his life by selling the information? Even if he had to start from the living souls again!
He had also once thought, if he had to start all over again, would he have the courage to do so? He thought he wouldn't. When he imagined those living souls trembling under his black chains, he didn't dare to imagine how he would persevere if he returned to this kind of state. He might as well just end it all.
But now, when he was truly facing life and death, he discovered that his desire to live was exceptionally strong. It was even stronger than a hundred thousand years ago!
Immortality was truly a poison. When you got used to all of this, you wouldn't be able to part with it anymore!
But this human cultivator didn't ask anything. He only swallowed and spat out sword qi on his sword, exterminating that trace of Dao Intent within his soul!
King Chujiang opened his mouth with difficulty. "Actually, I can tell you a few things …"
The human was indifferent. King Chujiang was a little anxious. He didn't have much time left.
"You might not believe me if I tell you, but we also want to establish a new order in the Netherworld. It's completely different from before … Ever since we comprehended a trace of Dao Intent, we understood a lot of things. We tolerated and even indulged you guys to kill us because the biggest obstacle to change came from these low-level ghost servants …"
Lou Xiaoyi looked at him playfully. He raised three fingers, indicating that he still had three breaths of time.
King Chujiang suddenly opened his eyes wide. He was unable to understand this person. Didn't the reason he came to the Netherworld was to find out some secrets? Now that the secret was right before his eyes, he was actually indifferent?
"Someone is instigating it! Otherwise, we wouldn't have improved so quickly! But I won't tell you who it is. Unless you remove this damnable sword! I'm King Chujiang. I won't satisfy your curiosity under humiliation … "
The tip of the sword trembled. King Chujiang opened his eyes wide. He had finished the last journey of his ten plus years of life. In the end, he still wanted to gamble, but he lost!
