While Zu An had ed to deal with two eneuard down at all

While he was clashi+ng bloith shi+ Zhenxiang earlier, he realized that even though he had defeated a fifth rank cultivator and killed a fourth rank cultivator before, there was a lot of luck at play there In a real fight, defeating a fourth rank cultivator was definitely no easy feat

It was fortunate that he had Poisonous prick and the ar arrow he had picked up earlier, or else he couldn’t even breach their ki arher cultivation rank, so defeating them would pose much more of an issue

It looks like I can’t brute force y and ’s corpse, an idea floated into Zu An’sthe forest in vain for quite soht have run in the wrong direction So, in accordance with their previous agreement, they headed back to where the bow user was supposed to be ca to meet up, only to bump into one another

“I couldn’t find any trails on my side Could he have headed northward, to where shi+ Zhenxiang is?” asked Zhen Liu “Should we head to the north area to take a look?”

Jia Zhengjing shook his head “Let’s meet up with Brother Po first If Brother shi+ hasn’t returned yet, we’ll head northward to take a look”

“Alright then!”

With someone to cover them, their movements were less careful this time around They swiftly raced back to the area where they left Po Zhongyou

“Say, if neither of us found any traces of Zu An at all, is it possible that he has turned around and headed back to where Brother Po is?” asked Jia Zhengjing

Zhen Liu shot Zu An to death if he spotted hi with his arrows if we can’t get close to hi nodded He suddenly noticed a silhouette in front and remarked, “Ah, Brother shi+ is back”

His words carried a hint of doubt as he realized that shi+ Zhenxiang was standing a little too high above ground They quickly rushed over, only for their faces to pale in shock They realized that shi+ Zhenxiang was hanging off a tree with a noose around his neck

“Brother shi+!” exclaiether with one another in Bright a bond of ca off the tree Without any hesitation, he rushed forward to sever the rope so as to put shi+ Zhenxiang’s body down

“Be careful!” warned Jia Zhengjing

However, it was already too late The moment the rope was severed, a black shadow suddenly darted across the air

With a scream of horror, he quickly tossed the body away It was fortunate that he had activated his ki arh the explosion had dealt significant injuries to him, it wasn’t fatal

The shockwave of the explosion pushed hiround He was just about to curse at the evil bastard who lay out this series of despicable traps when the ground beneath him suddenly caved in, and he fell into a pit

Had the eneer would have pierced through his skin and skewered his abdoer in his hand co his ki armor all this while, so ordinary attacks shouldn’t have possibly hurt hied to penetrate both his ki arh price This was inconceivable to him!

On the other hand, Zu An laood one, but the short strike range of Poisonous prick and the sharp reflexes of his eneed about having killed a pinnacle fourth rank cultivator in a single strike

Thinking about this, he suddenly found hi Bubai While he was laer, the latter was already do the world with just a couple of needles in hand

With the earlier precedence, his movement was more controlled and careful this time around, but its force was still not to be underesti vacuued sideward before attee, but he suddenly felt a strong gale coer and pulled it to his side, blocking off the sudden spear sweep

Despite having successfully blocked the attack, the sheer force from the spear sweep forced Zu An to use Sunflower Phantasm to retreat a few steps before he was able to neutralize the impact
