Fortunately, Lei Gu seemed to be determined to kill him and didn’t intend to let him go, saving him some effort.
Taking out a handful of pills, Yang Kai stuffed them into his mouth and cursed, “Are you f*cking insane? If you dare chase me again, I won’t be polite with you.”
Lei Gu sneered, “Boy, next year, today will be your death anniversary. Are you satisfied with the burial place this King has chosen for you?” As he spoke, the hammer in his hand transformed into a series of light shadows, smashing Yang Kai so hard that he could only hide, unable to resist. Several times, Yang Kai had barely managed to dodge the hammer.
If it was anyone else who was seriously injured, it would have been impossible for them to escape from the wrath of an enraged 3rd order Emperor Realm master. Only Yang Kai could accomplish this with his instantaneous movement, but he was in such a sorry state that Lei Gu’s mood became much better.
Previously, in the Plain Palace, this little brat had summoned hundreds of helpers to surround him and stare at him covetously. Now that the tables had turned, he finally understood what it meant to have the wheel of fortune turn.
However, Lei Gu had to admit that this little brat’s life-saving skills were indeed top-notch. His Space Ability was unfathomable, causing others to covet it. If it weren’t for the fact that he knew that not everyone could cultivate Space Force, Lei Gu might have even captured him alive and interrogated him about his specific cultivation method.
However, because of this, Lei Gu’s determination to kill Yang Kai became even stronger. If he didn’t take this opportunity to kill Yang Kai today, he feared he wouldn’t have many opportunities in the future.
After running for a while, Yang Kai was still alive and kicking. His vitality was simply unimaginable, but Lei Gu could clearly see that every time he used the Secret Technique to teleport, he would spit out a mouthful of golden blood. Obviously, the burden was too great for him to bear.
“Boy, if you stop now, this King can give you a quick death, but if you let this King catch you, I’ll make you beg for death!” Lei Gu threatened as he chased after him.
Yang Kai was fuming with anger, his face filled with grief and indignation, “The world is vast, if you don’t take this opportunity to escape, I’m afraid you won’t have another chance. Do you really think I came here alone?”
As soon as these words came out, Lei Gu’s expression changed, and even the Emperor Artifact’s movements couldn’t help pausing for a moment, but he quickly recovered and roared, “Even if you have a glib tongue, you can forget about leaving this place alive today!”
He obviously thought that Yang Kai was just trying to make things difficult for him. Although when they left the Plain Palace one after another, there would definitely be people following behind them, but after the hard work he had put in the past few days, Lei Gu believed that no one would be able to track him down. Even if there were pursuers, they would have long since escaped. At this moment, Yang Kai was just trying to scare him and was obviously at the end of his rope.
“Good, good, good, if you don’t believe me, just wait and see!” Yang Kai clutched his chest as he felt a strong gust of wind behind him. He hurriedly activated his Space Laws to try again, but this time, he felt a sharp pain in his chest, making it difficult for him to breathe. Even the Emperor Qi in his body suddenly became chaotic and he was unable to use his Space Divine Ability.
This shocked him quite a bit. The Embodiment had already set up a trap with Liu Yan and the others, just waiting for him to bring Lei Gu inside. If he was killed here by Lei Gu, all his efforts would be in vain.
This was not the first time he had suffered such heavy injuries, nor was it the first time he had been chased so miserably, but this was the first time he felt so close to death.
In the blink of an eye, Yang Kai suddenly turned around and used all his strength to swing his Million Sword.
All things lost their color, leaving behind only the light of this sword.
As the hammer came smashing down, the sword light shattered and Yang Kai’s face was covered in blood. The sound of bones breaking rang out from his arms as he was sent flying like a rag sack.
Injuries added to injuries, but in the most critical moment, he had managed to save his own life. Borrowing the power of the Hammer, he flew backwards and released the two Wood Spirits from the Mysterious Boundary Bead.
Mu Zhu and Mu Lu obviously still didn’t understand what was happening, so when they appeared, they wore blank expressions.
“Give me a hand!” Yang Kai said with great difficulty. As soon as he spoke, blood gushed out from his mouth like a fountain.
Mu Zhu and Mu Lu were both shocked as they turned to look at Lei Gu, who was chasing after them. How could they not know that Yang Kai was being pursued? Both of them glanced at each other and didn’t hesitate, both of them executing their special techniques as their bodies suddenly scattered, transforming into specks of light that gathered behind Yang Kai’s shoulder blades.
In an instant, two exquisite wings appeared behind Yang Kai.
When the Wood Spirit Race and the Stone Puppet fought side by side, they would always use this method to assist. Yang Kai had seen Elder and the Wood Spirit Patriarch use this method many years ago, so he was no stranger to it.
With a flap of his wings, he shot forward like an arrow, his speed incredibly fast.
Seeing this, Lei Gu, who was chasing after Yang Kai, was stunned for a moment before a look of suspicion appeared on his face. What kind of method was this? He was clearly about to kill Yang Kai, but now he was actually able to create a pair of wings. This was simply inconceivable, and with these wings, this little brat’s speed of escape suddenly became much faster.
Enraged, Lei Gu put away his Hammer and released a burst of Demonic Qi from his body. It was unknown what kind of Secret Technique he had used, but he was still able to quickly close in on Yang Kai.
Mu Zhu and Mu Lu didn’t know what was happening and only knew that Yang Kai was trying to avoid being hunted down, so they both used all their strength to flee, but Lei Gu was determined to kill Yang Kai, so how could they escape?
The distance between the two of them rapidly shortened, causing the two Wood Spirits to become anxious as they flapped their wings faster.
Yang Kai weakly pointed them in a certain direction before closing his eyes and silently circulating his Mysterious Technique to catalyze the effects of the pill he had just swallowed.
In the time it took to boil a cup of tea, Yang Kai suddenly opened his eyes as he passed a mountain valley surrounded by mountains.
Behind them, Lei Gu, who was flying towards the mountain valley, suddenly felt an alarm ring in his heart as an incomparable sense of danger filled his body, causing him to suddenly stop and look around vigilantly.
A thousand meters away, Yang Kai slowly turned around and spat out a mouthful of blood, calmly staring at Lei Gu as he said, “Chase me, why the hell didn’t you chase after me?” After ten minutes of healing, coupled with his powerful recovery ability, Yang Kai was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief. Although he was still quite a distance away from recovering, at least he wasn’t as weak as before.
Hearing this, Lei Gu coldly glanced at Yang Kai before turning around and preparing to leave.
A figure flashed behind him and Fan Wu blocked his path with his hands behind his back, calmly saying, “This path is blocked.”
Lei Gu’s eyes narrowed as he glanced to the left. Suddenly, another figure appeared, revealing a white-robed woman.
Looking to the right, another thin and short man also appeared.
Lei Gu’s heart sank. He naturally knew who these three people were. Yang Kai had introduced them to him a few days ago and knew that all three of them were Holy Spirits.
How could this be? They had actually been lying in ambush here all this time, waiting for him to fall into their trap, and judging from Yang Kai’s previous actions, he had been foolish enough to fall into this trap.
The only thing that Lei Gu couldn’t figure out was how they had secretly contacted each other. He hadn’t seen any signs of him taking out his communication compass, nor had he seen any signs of him leaving a mark.
Three Holy Spirits… Lei Gu couldn’t even force a smile. He wasn’t even a match for one Holy Spirit, let alone three. For a moment, his intestines turned green with regret. If he had known this would happen, he would have fled into the Southern Swamp and wouldn’t have chased after them. But now, he had fallen into their trap.
At this critical moment of life and death, he was quite decisive. There were Holy Spirits blocking his path from both sides, so he couldn’t resist them. His figure flickered as he rushed forward. Only the front was the only way out, and Yang Kai was no match for him in his current state.
Facing the aggressive Lei Gu, Yang Kai stood in place without moving, a sneer appearing on his face.
Lei Gu suddenly felt that something was wrong and realized that Yang Kai was hiding some kind of trump card, but now that the arrow was nocked, he had no choice but to use it. Demonic Qi erupted from his body as he transformed into a giant palm and grabbed towards Yang Kai.
As long as he could capture Yang Kai, he could make the three Holy Spirits hesitate to act against him, allowing him to use the same method to escape.
Just as the Demonic Qi palm was about to capture Yang Kai, a petite figure suddenly appeared behind Yang Kai. It was a seven or eight year old little girl, beautiful and cute.
However, this little girl’s next actions caused Lei Gu’s soul to leave his body.
When she opened her small mouth and blew out a breath of air, the wave of Qi suddenly transformed into a torrential flame that seemed capable of incinerating everything in the world. When the pitch-black Demonic Qi palm came into contact with the flame, it was actually incinerated into nothingness. Not only that, but the flame transformed into a flaming blade in midair and slashed towards his face.
As the aura of death enveloped him, Lei Gu’s expression changed drastically. Although he couldn’t immediately identify what kind of fire this was, he knew that he couldn’t touch it.
Raising his hammer, it suddenly expanded like a house, blocking his head.
When the Fire Blade struck the Hammer, it was unable to break through its defences, but when Lei Gu retrieved his Emperor Treasure, he saw a small flame burning on the hammer. No matter how he tried, he was unable to extinguish the flame, causing the hammer to flash wildly.
“I already told you, if you keep chasing, I won’t be polite, but you just won’t listen, cough cough cough…” Yang Kai covered his chest and wanted to ridicule Lei Gu, but he was unable to do so and could only give up.
Lei Gu’s face was ashen, knowing that he would not be able to escape today no matter what. The hatred in his heart could not be washed away even if he poured all the water in the Three Rivers and Five Lakes.
“Attack!” Yang Kai gently waved his hand.
Four figures, one from the front, one from the back, one from the left, and one from the right, rushed towards Lei Gu. Four fierce killing intent locked onto him.
Lei Gu raised his watermelon hammer and shouted, “Demon Race will never die!”
As he spoke, the Demonic Qi around his body fluctuated violently and his body rapidly expanded.
Seeing this, Fan Wu and the others all stopped in their tracks and quickly retreated.
