Chapter 345: Ending Like This (4)

Helian Qi did not expect Shadow Thirteen to play such a dirty trick. The dagger was poisonous, and his meridians immediately hurt violently.

Helian Qi glared fiercely at Yan Jiuchao. This kid actually dared to poison him? Wasn’t he afraid of being found out?!

He sealed his acupoints and did not let the poison flow through his body. Then, he tapped his toes and disappeared from their sight.

“Young Master, he ran away,” Shadow Thirteen said.

Yan Jiuchao said indifferently, “Then chase after him.”

Shadow Thirteen gave chase.

Helian Qi could feel that someone was chasing after him. He tried to shake them off many times, but to no avail. Shadow Thirteen was getting closer and closer. Just as he was about to catch up, an abandoned wooden hut suddenly appeared in front of Helian Qi.

Helian Qi’s eyes flickered and he entered the house.

This was originally a place for hunters to rest. Because no one had stepped foot into the surrounding danger, gradually, no one cleaned it. Until now, it was completely abandoned.

Helian Qi closed the window and stood behind the door covered in spiderwebs, waiting for Shadow Thirteen to come and catch him off guard.

However, Shadow Thirteen did not seem to be coming over. He chased straight ahead.

Helian Qi heaved a sigh of relief and sat down against the wall.

He circulated his energy to force out the poison in his body. It had to be said that his martial arts were indeed extraordinarily deep. Ordinary experts would have died on the spot after being poisoned by this kind of poison, but not only could he delay it until now, he could also force out all the poison.

However, he felt that his stamina was running out. At this moment, Shadow Thirteen finally discovered the house and rushed over murderously.

Helian Qi knew that he could not dodge it. He held the long sword on the ground tightly and stabbed it fiercely the moment Shadow Thirteen broke through the door. Shadow Thirteen cleverly avoided it and stabbed him in the heart. He should be dead now, but Helian Qi smiled coldly.

Helian Qi reached out and slapped Shadow Thirteen’s chest.

Shadow Thirteen was sent flying by a huge internal energy.

Ordinary people’s hearts were on the left, but Helian Qi’s was on the right. This was a secret why he had never died even after being schemed against countless times.

He knew that he was not Shadow Thirteen’s match after being injured, so he deliberately let Shadow Thirteen stab him in the chest. Only then could he lower Shadow Thirteen’s guard and create an opportunity to sneak attack him.

As expected, he succeeded.

It was not that Shadow Thirteen was too weak, but that Helian Qi was too strong.

Shadow Thirteen slammed into a big tree outside the door and fell heavily to the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

Helian Qi’s palm landed on Shadow Thirteen’s heart. Logically speaking, Shadow Thirteen was hopeless, but just as he shocked Shadow Thirteen, Shadow Thirteen also stunned him.

Shadow Thirteen coldly wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and got up from the ground!

How could this be?! Even a true sacrificial soldier shouldn’t have been able to withstand his palm strike just now.

It seemed that this half-dead sacrificial soldier was much stronger than he had imagined.

Helian Qi gave Shadow Thirteen another palm strike. He thought that he would definitely die this time, but Shadow Thirteen still stood up shakily, and he stood even faster than the first time. Could it be that this fellow became more and more valiant the more he suffered? Helian Qi had heard of an evil martial art. Every time he underwent nirvana, he could become stronger, but the process of training was very painful. Even sacrificial soldiers could barely survive it.

“This kid actually…” Helian Qi suddenly felt a chill run down his spine.

Then, the two of them fought to a draw.

Helian Qi’s martial arts were above Shadow Thirteen’s, which was not strange. He had practiced martial arts for at least twenty years more than Shadow Thirteen, and the Helian family was a famous martial arts family in Nanzhao. As the legitimate son of the second branch, the Helian family had thrown countless natural treasures on him and found countless martial arts manuals for him. There were even elders who had passed down their entire lives’ internal energy to him. It was a little unreasonable that he could not defeat a half-sacrificial soldier.

However, Helian Qi’s condition was not good. After all, he was injured, and his vitality and internal energy were rapidly depleting. Even if they could fight to a draw now, he would gradually fall into a disadvantage after more than a hundred moves. Helian Qi made a prompt decision and used his qinggong to escape after giving Shadow Thirteen a palm strike.

Helian Qi finally understood that he had underestimated his enemy. He thought that he could do whatever he wanted in the Great Zhou with his martial arts. In fact, if Yan Jiuchao had not schemed against him in the restaurant, he would have been more than enough to deal with that half-sacrificial soldier.

But there were no ifs in the world. There were only consequences and results.

Helian Qi used all his strength to escape for a while. He could not escape anymore and sat down against a poplar tree. He was extremely weak at this moment. Even an ordinary guard could kill him. Fortunately, his cultivation technique was special and he could recover 30% of his strength in fifteen minutes.

When he recovered, he would kill Yan Jiuchao!

Helian Qi began to circulate his energy to heal his injuries.

On the other hand, after the Eldest Prince and Prince Cheng met, they began to travel together. Their archery skills were too bad, and they did not even catch a single chicken feather along the way. If this continued, they would be scolded by their father.

“Brother…” Prince Cheng looked at the Eldest Prince eagerly.

The Eldest Prince said gloomily, “Why are you looking at me? Do you think you can have prey just by looking at me?”

“Are we going in the wrong direction?” Prince Cheng said carefully. The more they walked, the less prey there was. They might have entered some dangerous area.

The Eldest Prince refused to admit that he did not remember the way. He coughed lightly and said, “Didn’t I follow you?”

Helian Qi recognized the Eldest Prince and Prince Cheng’s voices. He was at a critical juncture in his cultivation. He could not let anyone disturb him. He hid himself and tried his best not to let them discover him.

Fortunately, the two of them were dabblers in martial arts and did not sense Helian Qi’s aura.

Prince Cheng was depressed. Why was he pushing the blame to him again? He wanted to go south, okay? Big Brother had run all the way west. Now, they had run to nowhere.

The Eldest Prince suddenly said, “Look! There’s a fox!”

Prince Cheng looked in the direction his brother was pointing and saw a dozing fox under a tree. He was overjoyed and hurriedly drew his bow.

This fox was quite big, and there were no leaves in front of it. It was almost completely exposed to them, so Prince Cheng was confident that he could hit it.

Prince Cheng released the bowstring. With a whoosh, the arrow disappeared.

“You can’t even hit it at such a close distance! Idiot!” The Eldest Prince also drew his bow. He might not be able to hit it if they prey was moving around. How could he not do anything when he was lying there sleeping?

The Eldest Prince also shot an arrow, but he missed.

Prince Cheng: Who’s the idiot?

Behind the tree, Helian Qi looked at the arrow on his left leg and the arrow on his right leg in confusion. “…”

The Eldest Prince cleared his throat. “Again.”

Helian Qi pulled out the arrow on his left leg. With a whoosh, a new one flew over and hit the original wound. He removed the one on his right leg and was also hit by a new one.

Helian Qi exploded. F*ck! You two don’t even change places when you shoot?! Can you stop shooting my legs? At least shoot an arrow in the chest!

Swish!

An arrow hit him in the chest.

Helian Qi: “…”
