I Can Transfer the Side Effects of Evil Skills

Chapter 181: Chapter 149: Second Form

Forget Yuwen Shuo; almost no one present could react in time to the scene unfolding before them.

A moment later, Xie Ding’s panicked roar echoed, ”This is bad! We absolutely cannot let him escape!!”

With those words, he charged forward in pursuit, ignoring that as a Seventh Grade, he had no chance of victory against a Sixth Grade master.

The reason was simple: if Wu Xing truly managed to escape, everyone present would surely die.

Wu Xing’s decisive action actually made Zou Feng think a little more highly of him.

After all, this guy wasn’t an idiot like Yuwen Shuo, who insisted on courting death even when he knew the situation was hopeless.

When Wu Xing’s earlier strike missed, he immediately realized it was impossible to take down Zou Feng in a short amount of time.

Besides, the other Seventh Grade Martial Artists were on the verge of joining the fray, so the whole fight was pointless.

Under normal circumstances, it wouldn’t be a big problem for a Gang Qi Realm master to handle three or four Seventh Grades.

However, there weren’t just three or four Seventh Grades now. Except for those who truly couldn’t make it, like Bian Yixia and Magistrate Huang, most of the Seventh Grades in all of Yuan Guang County had shown up.

Not to mention there were also Half-Step Gang Qi masters like Tian Yun and Xie Ding, as well as a hundred elite gang members, skilled fighters from the martial arts halls, and others.

With such a lineup, they could genuinely wear down and kill a Sixth Grade master through sheer attrition.

Therefore, Wu Xing knew there was no point in being foolhardy.

’The young master is beyond saving. The only thing I can do now is escape this place as quickly as possible and inform the Master, so he can get revenge for him.’

This group was acting no different from rebels.

Therefore, the Cheetah Camp could dispatch a unit tomorrow to wipe out the Jianghu Influence in Yuan Guang County.

This time, they hadn’t run aground because they were too careless, but because they had truly never expected Zou Feng to be able to poison Yuwen Shuo.

Otherwise, even if things went sour, Yuwen Shuo was a Gang Qi Realm master, after all. He also possessed Magical Artifacts these country bumpkins had never even seen before. Teaming up with Wu Xing, they could have left at their leisure, unafraid of these people getting desperate.

But with Yuwen Shuo’s inexplicable poisoning, all of that became moot.

Having resolved to escape, Wu Xing was brimming with confidence.

’If I don’t get bogged down fighting them and just focus on leaving, no one can stop me!’

However, just as this thought flashed through his mind, a terrifying whistling sound came from behind him.

He turned his head to see that it wasn’t Xie Ding chasing him, but Zou Feng, who wore a chilling smile.

’So fast!?’

’How can a mere Seventh Grade have such unnatural speed?’

Wu Xing was horrified to discover that he didn’t have a significant speed advantage; Zou Feng was closing in on him, bit by bit.

’First, he somehow poisoned Yuwen Shuo without anyone noticing, and now he’s gradually catching up to me. What kind of monster is this guy...?’

At this thought, Wu Xing’s Gang Qi burst forth, and he abruptly accelerated again.

Seeing this, Zou Feng also accelerated sharply, refusing to be shaken off.

In contrast, Xie Ding and Tian Yun, who had also chosen to give chase, were left further and further behind.

However, seeing that Zou Feng could keep up with Wu Xing, they were ultimately not as tense as before.

’Zou Feng just needs to hold up Wu Xing until we get there. The three of us together will most likely be able to take him down...’

This high-speed chase lasted for the time it takes half an incense stick to burn.

In the end, Wu Xing had consumed a great deal of his Gang Qi but still couldn’t shake Zou Feng, so he had no choice but to stop for the time being.

Of course, it wasn’t that he couldn’t run anymore. Rather, after such a long chase, only Zou Feng had actually kept up. The other Seventh Grades were nowhere to be seen.

’Well then, what comes next will be much easier...’

A Gang Qi Machete suddenly re-formed in his hand. Wu Xing spun around and, with a backhand Reversing Saber technique, slashed out diagonally with a thirty-foot-high wave of Sword Qi.

Zou Feng had been expecting this move and calmly sidestepped to dodge it.

But Wu Xing wasn’t about to flee again after just one probing strike.

His killing intent solidified, Wu Xing went all out.

Waves of Sword Qi crisscrossed the air, surging toward Zou Feng from all directions like a torrential storm.

Against the full-powered assault of a Gang Qi Realm master, Zou Feng was clearly struggling. He could no longer dodge all the Sword Qi and was forced to hastily block several strikes.

”You’re looking to die?”

”Then I’ll grant you your wish!” Wu Xing roared, venting his frustration as he continued his assault. ”Who gave you the courage? A mere self-taught Seventh Grade dares to chase me to his death!”

The moment he finished speaking, an exceptionally thick wave of Sword Qi slashed out horizontally, clearly intended to cut Zou Feng in half at the waist.

At this moment, Zou Feng could no longer dodge and could only form two ”Lotus” seals with his hands to block the blow head-on.

”BANG!”

After taking the Sword Qi head-on, Zou Feng was forced back a full five steps before he could barely stabilize himself, his expression clearly turning ugly.

After unleashing his Big Move, Wu Xing also had to catch his breath. He snorted coldly as he closed in on Zou Feng.

”Keep chasing! Why don’t you keep chasing me!”

Wu Xing was used to throwing his weight around with Yuwen Shuo, so to suddenly suffer such a huge setback was incredibly frustrating.

Therefore, now that he had the chance, Wu Xing naturally had to vent his frustrations.

Unexpectedly, Zou Feng wasn’t nearly as panicked as Wu Xing had anticipated.

Instead, he slowly rose to his feet and ripped off the upper part of his Martial Attire, which had been slashed in multiple places by the Sword Qi.

Doing so revealed his sinewy muscles, so perfectly proportioned that one couldn’t find a single flaw.

”As expected. Although you can’t compare to a disciple of the Celestial Essence Sword Sect, you’re a Gang Qi Realm master, after all. You’ve really got something!”

Before he’d even finished speaking, Zou Feng dropped into a Horse Stance, then bent over and placed one palm on the ground, grinning fiercely. ”And now, it’s my turn...”

A frenzied Inner Qi instantly began to race through his meridians like boiling water.

The skin all over Zou Feng’s body became flushed, as if he had just stepped out of a sauna, and a steam-like gas faintly rose from him.
