Invincible from Seeing the BOSS's Health Bar

Chapter 7: Chapter 7 Crisis (4 updates)

”Speak! Not a single person in the casino is decent! My father was killed by those casino people.”

Nong Chao clenched his fist, his eyes red as if harboring deep-seated hatred, he spat viciously at Fang Yu’s corpse.

Li Qianxuan remained silent, merely whispering a few words to a trusted confidant beside him.

The person nodded and left, heading inside the pharmacy.

It wasn’t long before he returned, reporting something to Li Qianxuan.

Li Qianxuan’s actions went unnoticed by anyone.

Everyone was shocked by Nong Chao’s act of decapitation, but despite the sudden event, it was met with cheers from the crowds.

”Good! Well killed!”

”It should be just so!”

”How can we tolerate such scoundrels under the bright heavens!”

Li Baigu, banging his head on the ground, yelled out in a high voice.

”Dad! Mom! Your son has avenged you!!”

In the instant his head hit the ground, Li Baigu’s gaze flicked to Fang Yu’s headless body, a slight cold smile involuntarily forming at the corner of his mouth.

The smile had just started to emerge.

A chilling voice suddenly sounded in his ear like a phantom.

”You seem... quite pleased, aren’t you?”

What?!

At that moment, Li Baigu felt as if the blood in his veins had suddenly frozen.

Slowly, subtly concealing his expression, Li Baigu raised his head and looked at the person next to him, forcing a smile.

”Lord Li, I am not pleased, I am excited! Excited that I have avenged my parents! And this is all thanks to Lord Li’s help!”

”Help? Did I help you eliminate a hidden threat or help you seek revenge?”

As Li Baigu was about to speak, he was stopped by Li Qianxuan raising his hand.

”Don’t speak, your pulse is beating very fast right now, what sort of lies are you preparing to tell me?”

Li Baigu was startled; it was only then he realized that Li Qianxuan had at some point placed a finger on his chest to measure his pulse.

”Don’t look away, I am questioning you right now, and should you move a muscle, your heart will gain an extra hole. I mean what I say.” After pausing for a moment, Li Qianxuan asked, ”At merely fifteen or sixteen, having just experienced the death of your parents, the gruesome demise of the shop assistants, and the loss of blood from both arms, you have been on the run for so long, yet you seem... still full of energy? Not out of breath or exhausted, is that the constitution a normal teenager should have?”

Li Baigu’s face changed slightly, and he immediately feigned an exhausted, panting demeanor.

”Lord Li, I... I don’t know why I have been able to hold on until now with such spirit, perhaps, it’s the obsession for my parents’ vengeance that’s sustaining me. Now that you’ve reminded me, I feel like I’m about to...”

Li Baigu was about to pretend to faint...

Ssst!!

A finger suddenly pierced through his chest.

At this moment, if Fang Yu were here, he would certainly see red numbers pop up.

-44!

But that wasn’t all. Li Baigu clearly wanted to keep pretending, but as he began to speak...

Wham!!

A fierce sword light instantly sent his head flying.

-500!!

If Fang Yu were present, the damage number would be this astonishing!

Blood spurted from the neck, and he fell down; another headless corpse was added to the ground.

The crowd that had just been cheering was terrified into silence at this sight.

This strange silence, after pausing for a second or two, erupted with a bang!

”Ahhhhhhhh!!”

”Murder! The people of the Foolish Underworld are killing again!!”

”Run! They’ve killed the pharmacy shopkeeper’s son too! They’ve gone mad! Totally mad!!”

The onlookers screamed and dispersed in all directions, while only the members of the Foolish Underworld were perplexed, yet they immediately flanked Li Qianxuan’s side.

”Lord Li, what in the world is this...”

”Shush!”

Li Qianxuan looked at Li Baigu’s body and slowly said,

”You’ve hidden well and disguised brilliantly.”

”Human emotions, facial expressions, words, you’ve imitated them to perfection. That act of repenting and crying for your parents’ revenge, even I was moved by it.”

”But...”

”You overlooked one thing.”

”That is why we humans never tear a person in half, leaving their intestines exposed when we kill!”

”The corpse at the pharmacy exposed you.”

”You who wears human skin... Demon!!”

With that, Li Qianxuan slashed his sword towards Li Baigu’s headless body!

Li Qianxuan’s sword was fast, almost the fastest among all the present!

But he was not faster than the non-human demon!

Bang!!!

Almost at the instant Li Qianxuan’s sword struck, Li Baigu’s headless body exploded into flesh and blood!

A Black Shadow charged out amidst the blood and gore, rushing towards Nong Chao and Nong Han, who were dumbfounded.

In just a flash, two heads were sent flying.

Nong Chao and Nong Han’s headless bodies toppled over.

Instant-kill! Utterly powerless to resist, instant-kill!

”Form up!!”

Li Qianxuan roared sternly.

The bewildered crowd came to their senses and quickly formed defensive circles inside and out around Li Qianxuan.

”It’s really a demon! The demon is real!” someone’s wrist trembled as they uttered.

”Kill! Kill, kill, kill! Father! Mother! Your child finally has the chance to avenge you by killing this demon!!” another person cried out emotionally.

It was apparent that although Li Qianxuan’s group had considerable strength, they were not totally unified.

”Clear your minds! Everyone follows my command, loose arrows!!”

Li Qianxuan barked a command, and a dense flurry of arrows whistled towards the direction he pointed.

A few arrows successfully hit the demon, but many more were dodged.

One of his trusted confidants immediately called out.

”It’s not fast!”

Li Qianxuan shook his head slightly: ”No! It’s slower because it’s injured!”

The demon, disguised as a human in human skin, still had a demon’s body.

First a severed hand, then a severed head, even for a demon those would be serious injuries!

The Black Shadow Demon, facing the oncoming storm of arrows, let out a bestial roar.

Some were stunned, others were frightened and distracted, but fortunately, their formation allowed them to cover each other’s flanks.

Teammates immediately shared the pressure.

As the Black Shadow charged, the team acted as one, converging their swords towards the direction of the attack.

Sword, sword, sword, sword, sword!

From every angle, the Black Shadow Demon would inevitably meet a sword edge.

Bang!!

With a loud impact, several people were knocked aside, but the Black Shadow Demon burst with blood, taking hits from the others, and retreated explosively.

”Arrows!”

Li Qianxuan commanded sharply, and the well-trained team immediately drew their bows.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh—

The dense shower of arrows tracked the trajectory of the Black Shadow Demon and struck it with several more shots.

”It’s more severely wounded now!” an intimate exclaimed excitedly.

”Don’t let your guard down!”

Li Qianxuan’s eyes intently tracked the direction in which the demon fled, then suddenly, he hesitated.

In the reflection of the sunlight, the figure of the Black Shadow Demon... vanished!

”Disappeared?!”

”Where’s the demon?”

”Did it escape??”

Others noticed this phenomenon too and whispered among themselves.

At this moment, a chill suddenly surged in Li Qianxuan’s heart.

He faintly heard the whistling sound of something hurtling through the air.

Almost on instinct, he swiftly raised his sword to parry.

In front of his astonished confidants...

Clang!!
