(Since the random boosts for the Silver Alliance cannot be used, the progress is 60/100.)
Red light arrows directly hit Bai Wu, and the scarlet flas symbolized his anger.
Although this was the mory World, a world constructed of spiritual constructs, even here, there was real death.
Bai Wu coughed up a mouthful of blood.
His gaze locked on the vortex, ready to kill his opponent the mont they appeared.
But suddenly, many vortexes appeared, all facing Bai Wu, launching scarlet light arrows toward him.
Dozens of red light arrows ca at Bai Wu, who waved his hand, and endless Karmic Fire ford a wall of flas, wrapping around him and Xiaoyugan.
The wall of flas, with its powerful devouring and burning abilities, absorbed all the dozens of light arrows.
"The mantis tries to stop the chariot," a deep voice ca from the countless vortexes, making it difficult to discern its direction.
Bai Wu suddenly pushed Xiaoyugan away because a vortex crossed space directly, bypassed the wall of flas, and appeared in front of Bai Wu.
Even if his eyes foresaw this future, Bai Wu could avoid it in advance, but he could not avoid it while also carrying Xiaoyugan with him.
Once again, he took an arrow solidly.
Bai Wu’s anger intensified, and the Karmic Fire around him surged in seconds, his figure distorting within the flas.
The Pursuer in the vortex spoke again, this ti with a hint of confusion:
"Emotions?"
The mont the words fell, a great vigilance surged in Bai Wu’s heart!
[Be careful!]
Prayle’s Eye conveyed an image to Bai Wu, which soon beca reality—a massive amount of Karmic Fire, like endless anger personified.
Bai Wu was shocked; wasn’t this his own Karmic Fire?
Although he was startled, his reaction was not slow; as the flas swept through instantly, the wall of flas and the fire swirling around him both surged!
Fire t fire, and two terrifying blazes collided like two brawlers throwing fierce punches!
It was also in this mont that Bai Wu saw the note attached to the flas.
[Although it’s a copy, the power is not weaker than what you have shown. Do not get ’triggered’ again. Without being triggered, repel the enemy with a single strike!]
Triggered?
Does it refer to the light arrow that just touched him? That arrow’s power was huge, but not fatal.
Could it be a dium for so kind of power-stealing ability?
Bai Wu instantly analyzed a possibility that was closest to the truth.
At the sa ti, a voice ca from behind him.
"You... wait a mont! I won’t let you die. I’ll take you out of here!"
Xiaoyugan’s tone was anxious. She wanted to bully Bai Wu but didn’t want Bai Wu to be bullied.
To go to a place deep enough that the Pursuer couldn’t find them in a short ti, even she would need a bit of ti.
"Don’t be afraid, I can’t die. Just focus on your thing," Bai Wu said without looking back, as Prayle’s Eye watched the future unfold before his eyes.
Xiaoyugan was sowhat unwilling to accept it.
The son of the man she despised had grown so much, but she also felt happy that Bai Yuan’s son was protecting her.
She had once experienced a splitting of her soul; to her, Bai Wu was also split—one part the son of an enemy and one part the son of Bai Yuan.
As for why the enemy was an enemy, it was because her world only had Bai Yuan, and Bai Yuan was taken from her.
If the current scene were suitable for talking, she would again express her conflicting feelings.
But obviously, under the current circumstances, she needed to concentrate and get Bai Wu out of there.
As Bai Wu drove the Karmic Fire and his mind raced:
"Although I don’t know what Karmic Fire is, judging from its ability to burn the black matter of Jing Family mbers, it must be a very powerful force of law. Yet, the enemy can replicate it..."
"Although there are many types of Fla, I can feel very clearly... that it is Karmic Fire."
"Prayle’s Eye ntioned not to be stimulated again, which ans as long as his attack doesn’t touch , my next attack should not be able to be replicated."
"Repel the enemy in one blow."
Before the opponent’s next round of attacks arrived, Bai Wu, relying on the future seen by Prayle’s Eye, had already thought of the best solution.
The Envy Greatsword was instantly unsealed, and he grasped the Envy in both hands while everything around him began to twist.
The entire space exhibited strange fluctuations. Xiaoyugan was shocked as well; the sons of their foe and Bai Yuan, could they really be so powerful?
The Pursuer hidden within the vortex exclaid in surprise:
"What power is this? A law?"
Bai Wu certainly didn’t bother to explain. He only knew that if this strike didn’t kill the opponent, it would an that the gap in strength between himself and this person was too great.
Back when he faced Jing Er, although he was completely no match for Jing Er, relying on the law of becoming the Well which he understood by devouring Well Water, he still caused Jing Er so injuries.
Now, executing this move again, especially under the enhancent of a weapon comparable to the genuine Seven Sins, its power was incomparably greater than before.
An extrely twisted path of the blade ca crashing down!
This vast mory World, under the terror of that power, was actually split by a massive ravine.
Within this ravine, Bai Wu felt as if he could see countless human mories intertwined, forming a complex and disordered world like that of a dream.
From different eras, different regions.
But soon... this world began to heal itself through the powerful force of the law.
However, Bai Wu’s slashing strike was far from over. The mighty power continued to destroy this world, countless vortices shattered in the distortion, extinguished within the twists.
After exhibiting the Power of the Well, Bai Wu almost completely lost his combat ability in the shelter.
And the rule of Envy was extrely simple: as a price for his own suffering, it robbed the opponent of their happiness.
Either the Envy or the Power of the Well, any one of these thods could plunge Bai Wu into a state of weakness where he was unable to fight.
Similarly, either one also possessed the power to destroy everything!
The terrifying attack compounded by both could even make Jing Er avoid its sharp edge.
And in this confined space, the world in front of Bai Wu was nothing but distortion.
In a daze, Bai Wu thought he heard his opponent’s agonized scream, but he truly had no strength left to finish the kill.
Clang, the greatsword dropped from his grasp to the ground.
Bai Wu’s legs gave out, his consciousness sank, and without knowing whether the opponent had been repelled, he fainted from extre exhaustion.
In front of Bai Wu, where the distortion had dispersed, there was only emptiness... All the vortices had vanished, even the presence of the Pursuer had disappeared.
Whether he was dead or had escaped was still unknown.
Xiaoyugan looked thoughtfully at the collapsed Bai Wu on the ground.
"Good at fighting, but must be a bit dumb."
In Xiaoyugan’s view, Bai was responsible for thinking, K for action; if soone was good at physical confrontation, then their mind surely wasn’t too sharp.
Lucky for Bai Wu, he didn’t hear this.
"But being able to inflict injury on that person... is not ordinary skill."
"So not ordinarily dumb either; she really is a stupid woman, just like that."
Xiaoyugan held Bai Wu’s hand in her left and touched the Envy Greatsword with the fingertips of her right hand as she muttered to herself.
At the sa ti, a huge vortex enveloped them, and the surrounding environnt began to change.
...
...
When Bai Wu opened his eyes, he lay on a chair.
Looking around, Bai Wu found himself in a courtyard.
The courtyard of a Manor.
The manor’s grand building was quite imposing, leading Bai Wu to imdiately think of the renowned Wayne Building.
Especially since on either side of the manor stood three separate villas, which made Bai Wu stare in surprise:
"Violet’s manor?"
A sowhat burly man poured him a cup of tea.
"You’re awake."
Bai Wu was familiar with the man but, looking at him as he was seven hundred years earlier, Bai Wu felt sowhat unfamiliar.
[That’s right, it’s the owner of the manor. Although he won’t be in the future, he still is now. Don’t be surprised that he doesn’t look very fat because at this ti, he doesn’t eat humans yet.]
Zhong Xu...
But that’s not right... If Zhong Xu were alive in 2094, he should just be a child.
Has the tiline changed?
Where’s Xiaoyugan?
"You’re awake."
Just as Bai Wu was feeling confused, Xiaoyugan appeared.
Seeing Xiaoyugan, Zhong Xu consciously left.
Xiaoyugan, carrying food, hurried towards Bai Wu and then sat opposite him:
"Eat sothing, for your brain."
"What the heck?" Bai Wu was stunned.
"You’re dumb, you need to nourish your brain." Xiaoyugan responded seriously.
Bai Wu couldn’t keep up with her line of thinking. But when this woman called him dumb, he didn’t bother to explain, just took it as... well, as respecting his elder.
"How do you know about this place?"
"In your mory... this place is most suitable for rest. The yard is large, there’s plenty of good food, and at this tiline, the pursuers won’t find right away."
"Are you sure this is the best place to rest?"
"Why are you so dull? It must be bad genes, no, your genes are good, wait... your genes are bad... that’s not right, your genes are good..."
Xiaoyugan beca confused. Should she say Bai Wu’s genes are good or bad?
Watching Xiaoyugan, Bai Wu couldn’t help but find it a little funny. He composed his thoughts and guessed the situation.
Since Zhong Xu had beco the head of a household, it must be so day before Violet was hard.
This family had not yet torn their relationship apart and still maintained a façade of peace.
At this ti, Zhong Xu just liked to toy with won and enjoy good food but had not yet reached that amoral "complete form."
It must have been Xiaoyugan’s arrival and the display of certain abilities that made Zhong Xu extrely respectful.
But this isn’t history, just a copy of the mory World.
Bai Wu now had many questions, thanks to the recent battle where he seed to have gained so trust from "Little Mom."
But this Little Mom really didn’t know how to speak.
Praising while scolding and with a deadpan face at that, leaving Bai Wu with no room for retort.
"The one who attacked you... has he been killed by ?"
Thinking of that enemy who could duplicate his Karmic Fire, Bai Wu furrowed his brow.
Right now, he had absolutely no strength left, and he was certainly in no condition for battle.
Xiaoyugan shook her head, looked around subconsciously, but didn’t seem as fearful as before:
"He’s injured, not dead."
He didn’t die from that?
The power of that blade strike, Bai Wu himself wouldn’t dare to face directly, and that man had seemingly taken it head-on, yet he unbelievably survived.
"Has he been relentlessly pursuing you?"
"Yes, but they rarely find . I’m very scared of him, he’s so clumsy, he can’t find ."
Xiaoyugan always could express all sorts of contradictory emotions without any turnabout.
The mory World was indeed a labyrinth, but the fact that I found Xiaoyugan and then the Hunter found her was clearly no coincidence.
Bai Wu was very curious about who this person was, but he asked other questions first:
"Why don’t you let K protect you? He should be able to, right?"
"K is dead... He’s just a mory, and mories can’t defeat that person. I miss K so much, but I’m too ashad to see him... I want to see him, I don’t want to see him..."
Xiaoyugan’s emotions were very genuine, clearly written on her face, but they also seed sowhat muddled.
Bai Wu understood.
Although the mory World restored many scenes from people’s mories, as beings of mory, they definitely couldn’t be as powerful as real people.
Beings of mory did possess not insignificant combat abilities, but for Xiaoyugan and the Pursuer, they would probably both overwhelmingly overpower beings of mory with the rules.
Bai Wu then thought of the most critical issue—Jing San was trapped in this area; how could the Pursuer keep up the relentless pursuit?
From the Pursuer’s earlier attacks, Bai Wu didn’t believe this person had the power of Jing San, and might not even possess that of Jing Wu.
However, the Pursuer never showed himself, hiding in the vortex. Bai Wu also had no idea what the Pursuer’s abilities were.
He could only speculate based on the earlier battle:
"Because that person possesses the sa abilities as you?"
"Partially..." Xiaoyugan subconsciously touched her wrist.
Bai Wu roughly understood.
This person had once touched, or rather injured Xiaoyugan, and the wound was on her wrist, thereby obtaining part of Xiaoyugan’s abilities?
Just like when I was hit by an arrow, the other party also gained the power of Karmic Fire. Such power, being so rare and originating from the Inner World’s emotions, was supposed to be impossible to replicate.
Luckily, there were no further touches, and after transforming into a being of the Well with a single slash, the other party could not possibly replicate it.
"Who is this person?"
"Who is your mother? Is she pretty? Is she... more useful than ?" Xiaoyugan didn’t answer Bai Wu’s question.
Now, for Bai Wu, she seed no longer interested in killing him since Bai Wu had saved her life.
But that didn’t an that her dislike for Bai Wu’s mother had also disappeared.
Bai Wu forced a smile:
"You might not believe it, but I’ve never seen her... at least I don’t rember..."
"No wonder... she’s not in your mories. So you don’t have a mom," Xiaoyugan said calmly.
A twitch appeared at the corner of Bai Wu’s eye; this little devil’s way of speaking could really make one’s blood pressure rise more than The First Generation’s.
"But you must have a mother... otherwise who would have given birth to you with Bai Yuan?"
"I don’t know."
"Aren’t you curious?"
"Curious, but it’s pointless. I also don’t want to ask Bai Yuan."
What Bai Wu said was true; what if his mother, in Bai Yuan’s eyes, was also just a tool?
The outco for that woman was probably very grim.
His fists involuntarily clenched a little tighter as Xiaoyugan spoke:
"Why doesn’t Bai Yuan want to see ... What are you looking for in coming to see ?"
"I won’t answer the first question. You can think about that yourself later. As for the reason I ca to see you, I just ntioned it—the person who’s been pursuing you, who exactly is it?"
"You eat first. I rember you like eating. I was originally going to poison you, make you vomit and have diarrhea. You’re not a bad person, so I won’t poison you," Xiaoyugan said seriously.
Bai Wu couldn’t help but have a bitter smile. This woman really couldn’t lie, but at least she had learned how to change the subject.
Bai Wu realized that both tis he brought up who the Pursuer was, Xiaoyugan changed the subject.
"Okay, I’ll eat first, but you must tell who the Pursuer is, and you’re not allowed to change the subject."
