Online: I Can See Health Bars-Chapter 1190 - 523: The New Hunt (Part 2)

"It’s too dangerous..."

If you can’t control it, then let it go.

"That Diao Deyi, I can’t let him stay in Sunset City."

"The current me cannot suppress the Spirit anymore, and no one will be able to in the future!"

"If that guy loses control like the Qingling Taoist, and if, by chance, the Spirit released from his body enjoys slaughtering humans... the consequences would be unimaginable."

Lord Hai Lin’s eyes flashed with contemplation as he began thinking about the subsequent arrangements.

While Sunset City is vast, it cannot accommodate uncontrollable things.

...

Outside the city gate.

Intercepted by the Barrier, Lei Qingzi looked up in shock towards the sky.

Their master, the Daoist of their temple, the Qingling Taoist, was floating past overhead, regarding his disciples as if they were nothing.

"Lord Qingling!"

"Master!"

"Master! Over here! Over here! We’re over here!"

The people around called out to the Qingling Taoist, but Lei Qingzi instinctively felt that something was off.

His mind didn’t work quickly, and he couldn’t articulate where the sense of wrongness came from. He just felt that, logically speaking, if the master went into the city to do something important, and if it succeeded, the Sunset City’s Barrier should stop and welcome them in. Conversely, if it failed, the master shouldn’t be flying out leisurely like this but fleeing as fast as he could.

And in Qingling Taoist’s current state, there was something unreasonable about it.

So Lei Qingzi retreated silently to the back of the crowd.

At this moment, the Qingling Taoist in the sky also glanced at the ants below with the corner of his eye.

When no one had reacted yet.

When everyone was excited.

Boom!!!!

The ground suddenly shook violently downward!

Ssss!!!

Before Lei Qingzi understood what happened, just as his body felt the imbalance, a thick, bloody water mixed with flesh chunks, as if a Blood Pool was spraying upwards, exploded.

Splash, splash, splash.

Lei Qingzi was drenched in blood.

He stood there with his mouth slightly open, looking at the exaggerated, long deep trench on the ground, his entire brain blank.

The enormous mark seemed like a giant had struck the ground with a massive sword, carving a path into the earth!

But he didn’t see the sword, nor did he witness the strike; only heard the tremendous sound, and just seconds ago, the dozens of people around him turned into a Blood Pool, spilling into the chasm in the ground.

Gulp.

Lei Qingzi swallowed hard.

"My goodness..."

Lei Qingzi looked up at the Qingling Taoist, who had abruptly accelerated as if he had just casually swatted a group of mosquitoes without bothering to check the result. His figure vanished instantly, leaving no trace.

Lei Qingzi glanced at the City Defense Formation of Sunset City, still lit, and then at the surrounding chaos. Suddenly, he felt a bit lost.

Is he going back to Sunset City or not?

His master running off unexpectedly left this Daoist temple successor pondering his next steps.

Lei Qingzi was still contemplating when the few remaining junior brothers and sisters, who had climbed out of the blood pool, either clutching broken flesh or cradling pools of blood, began to wail.

"No!!!"

"Why! Why did the Daoist kill us..."

"Ahhh, ahhhh!"

The scene turned chaotic, and Lei Qingzi seemed to have discovered something, suddenly turning around.

Swish—

His gaze met a group of people, a disorganized assembly emerging from the forest as if they were defeated soldiers.

Among that group, one of the three leading individuals even waved a greeting at Lei Qingzi.

"Brother Lei, what a coincidence, meeting you again."

"Diao... Deyi?"

Lei Qingzi was momentarily bewildered, then suddenly realized, looking at Fang Yu with shock as if seeing a ghost.

"How... How are you still alive??"

Good question.

But more than that, Fang Yu was curious about what had just suddenly flown overhead.

He didn’t even see its health bar before that figure disappeared without a trace.

This speed... it was a bit exaggerated.

If I can’t keep up, it must at least be of the level of the Silver Lion King Demon, such great demon strength.

A wounded Silver Lion King Demon already gave Fang Yu a hard time, and if another one came, he really might not be able to handle it.

Luckily, that creature didn’t seem to be attacking them, as it disappeared in an instant.

When they saw Sunset City from afar, Fang Yu vaguely saw two figures fighting on the city wall, making exaggerated movements.

As the Demon Extermination Team continued to approach, a sudden loud boom erupted from ahead, causing the ground to shake violently like an earthquake.

With such a big commotion, everyone naturally had to check it out, and Fang Yu, the madman chasing the Demon Army to hack, naturally took the lead in the team.

Fang Yu thought there was going to be a fierce battle, but it ended up being just small fries like Lei Qingzi and his people.

Mere Qingling Taoist Temple traitors, aside from the Qingling Taoist who was worth being wary of, these guys were nothing.

Fang Yu didn’t even need to make a move. The people behind him, with their eyes red and shouting about traitors, rushed up, punching and kicking Lei Qingzi’s group. If it weren’t for Hou Xingchao shouting to keep them alive, they might have beaten them to death on the spot.

Looking at Lei Shenhao, who was huddled on the ground, holding his head and yelling not to hit the face, Fang Yu couldn’t help but feel a bit sorry for him.

For a godly magnate, a second-generation rich, to be commanding the wind and rain in reality and having gangs of followers in games, only to end up beaten to such a state now that his health bar is almost at the danger line, was pitiful.

Fortunately, Lei Shenhao was smart and didn’t use his Spirit Shield to block; otherwise, if people got more aggressive and tried to kick through the Spirit Shield, it wouldn’t just leave him bruised but could be life-threatening.

"Tie them all up and take them back to Sunset City. By the way, where is Qingling Taoist? Is he in the city?"

Hou Xingchao asked in a deep voice, asking Lei Shenhao directly.

Lei Qingzi replied with a sullen face, "My master is not in the city. He just came out of the city, attacked our own people, and then suddenly flew away."

Ah?

Hou Xingchao and Zhou Changqing were stunned.

The two exchanged a glance with Fang Yu, and Zhou Changqing suddenly slapped his thigh.

"That thing that just flew overhead!"

"Could it be... Qingling Taoist ran away? Why?"

While the two reacted differently, Fang Yu pondered a bit and said tentatively, "Perhaps, it’s because he was defeated? I saw from a distance earlier that Qingling Taoist was fighting someone on the city wall. Now that he ran away, he must have lost."

"Impossible!"

As soon as Fang Yu finished speaking, Hou Xingchao and Zhou Changqing spoke almost simultaneously.

They seemed to have lived under the shadow of Qingling Taoist for too long, not even considering the possibility of his defeat.

"As far as I know, no one in Sunset City should be able to stand against the Qingling Taoist."

"I think so too. Even the Hai Family Patriarch is not likely to be Qingling Taoist’s match. I suspect other high-level players reached some agreement with Qingling Taoist under certain conditions, or perhaps a contract to maintain surface peace."

They both seemed quite pessimistic.

Fang Yu, however, thought that Qingling Taoist might not be that strong.

If worst comes to worst, he could use the high demonization recovery rate to delay until Qingling Taoist’s spirit erosion reached 100%...

Wait!

Erosion...

Could it be?!

Fang Yu suddenly turned around, looking towards the direction where the figure had just flashed away.

"Perhaps, things have already reached a conclusion..."

Fang Yu spoke his cryptic words, drawing puzzled glances from Hou Xingchao and Zhou Changqing.

Meanwhile, they had already bound up Lei Qingzi’s group, ready to escort them back to Sunset City.

The City Defense Formation of Sunset City is to fend off external enemies. As long as they reach the gates, they should be allowed inside.

But the current internal situation in Sunset City was unknown to anyone, leaving everyone feeling a bit anxious.

As they got closer to the city gate, this feeling grew more intense.

...

In the wild.

"Mind-Disrupting Demon~"

"Don’t hide, I see you~"

Hai Kongxin picked up a blood-stained iron bead from the ground, squinted, and smiled as he called out to the surroundings.

Where?

Where!?

Swish—

One moment, Hai Kongxin was still shouting, and the next moment, his big face suddenly appeared right in front of the Mind-Disrupting Demon.

The demon’s heart suddenly contracted.

"Ahhhhh!!!"

The Mind-Disrupting Demon retreated violently!

But Hai Kongxin didn’t rush to chase after it. Instead, he took aim, waited, and then...

Buzz!!!

The piercing sound of the iron bead cutting through the air suddenly rang out!
