However, as Chu Hao descended from Beacon Tower Mountain, two people appeared beside Zhang Guanyi, their gazes locked on the direction in which Chu Hao had left.
The aura of these two was only slightly weaker than Zhang Guanyi's!
Anger simred in Chu Hao's heart. So what if your Taoism has been passed down for a thousand years? Just you wait.
After descending Beacon Tower Mountain, Chu Hao said to Dong Qi, "Let's go."
Dong Qi nodded repeatedly and led the way, clearing a path out of the area.
In the car, Li Yin asked, "Mouse, they aren't really going to hunt you down, are they?"
Dong Qi said, "Longhu Mountain has always been arrogant. Since we dented their pride this ti, they'll certainly seek revenge. But in two hours, we can get very far away. What we need to be wary of now isn't the old-tirs from Longhu Mountain, but others."
Others? Li Yin was utterly baffled.
Chu Hao looked out the back window and sneered, "So people like to kick a man when he's down."
It wasn't just Longhu Mountain. Other forces from Taoism and Evil Cults were also present, interested in the Emperor's Yellow Seal and the True Word Brush. Now that Chu Hao was very weak, they might take the opportunity to attack him.
Sure enough, a Humr appeared, chasing from behind. It was impossible to make out who was inside through the tinted windows.
Dong Qi floored the accelerator, speeding down the road.
Looking through the rearview mirror, it wasn't just one Humr; many sedans were trailing behind. The Humr, in particular, revved its engine and ramd toward the car Chu Hao was in.
"BANG!"
The Humr slamd into the rear of their car. Curses erupted from inside the vehicle as Dong Qi floored it again.
"That's despicable! They're going too far!" Li Yin was pale with outrage.
Seeing the Humr collide with Chu Hao's car and that it didn't stop, the pursuing vehicles sped up, their occupants jubilant.
Indeed, with Chu Hao considerably exhausted, this was a golden opportunity for them.
More vehicles kept appearing from behind, a growing number of cars joining the chase.
Among them were so sports cars, incredibly fast, yet they could only trail behind.
The Humr ramd into them again. The rear end of the BMW carrying Chu Hao and his companions was badly deford from the hit, simply unable to withstand the Humr's impact.
Dong Qi stepped on the gas and surged forward again, while the pursuing vehicles also accelerated.
Chu Hao took a pill to restore his Mana Points. True Qi is harder to recover, he thought. I'm not in such a hurry now; my Mana Points are enough to deal with these people behind . What worries are Zhang Guanyi and the other old n.
"System, is there any way to restore True Qi?"
System: "I recomnd the Host purchase an Essence Stone, which requires twenty thousand Pretentiousness Points."
Items to restore True Qi are that expensive?
Still, Chu Hao had earned a considerable amount of Pretentiousness Points previously and still had thirty thousand left.
"Purchase."
"Ding... The Host has purchased an Essence Stone, consuming twenty thousand Pretentiousness Points. Ten thousand Pretentiousness Points remaining."
Item: Essence Stone
Rarity: ★★★
Ability: Contains a massive amount of True Qi. Can be used five tis by a high-level Foundation Building cultivator to fully recover. (Each recovery takes one hour to complete.)
The Essence Stone couldn't instantly restore True Qi; one had to absorb the True Qi contained within it.
A fist-sized, milky-white crystal, similar to jade, appeared in his hand. Holding it, he could feel the True Qi it contained gradually flowing into his body.
"BANG!"
Another violent collision shook the car, nearly tipping it off the road.
Li Yin's lips quivered. This is too intense! He asked anxiously, "What do we do now?"
"BANG."
A gunshot rang out, hitting the rear window. Dong Qi and Li Yin turned deathly pale. Those bastards behind us actually brought guns?
In fact, guns were the least of their worries. If the pursuers had known Chu Hao would be this weakened and on the run, they might have even considered using a rocket launcher to take him down.
Yes, a rocket launcher.
An excited voice from soone in the pursuing cars said over the phone, "Hurry! Figure out a way to bring heavy weapons to Beacon Tower Mountain. Chu Hao is very weak right now, and he has the Emperor's Yellow Seal on him!"
Calls were already being made.
The car couldn't take much more of this. At this mont, Chu Hao said, "Stop the car."
Dong Qi was overjoyed. Could it be that Chu Hao has recovered? He slamd on the brakes, and the car skidded to a halt.
The pursuers also stopped their cars one by one, panting heavily. Has Chu Hao already recovered?
Li Yin asked nervously, "What are you planning to do?"
Chu Hao replied coldly, "You two drive off first."
He got out of the car. Knowing they couldn't be of much help here, Dong Qi and Li Yin drove away.
The crowd was baffled. What is Chu Hao going to do? Give up the struggle? What does him getting out of the car an?
"Shoot him," soone ordered coldly.
At this mont, not wanting to miss any chance, so were willing to test their luck, even if Chu Hao had recovered.
Soone leaned out of the Humr, aid at Chu Hao, and fired several shots.
"BANG! BANG! BANG!"
Chu Hao sidestepped, dodging the bullets. Anger surged within him, his killing intent flaring. He turned and dove into the dense bushes beside the highway.
The thicket was dense with shrubbery, making it difficult to find anyone inside.
"Chase him!"
This is a golden opportunity! No one wanted to miss it.
Although Chu Hao had no True Qi left in his body when he entered the forest, his Qinggong was so exceptional that the dense vegetation seed like no obstacle at all; he weaved through it with ease.
Chu Hao could have easily escaped, but he didn't. That shooter was too despicable. Now, let's see who is hunting whom.
「A few minutes later.」
Chu Hao appeared in a tree, eyeing the area below.
A team in black suits entered the forest. They didn't look like they were from Taoism, and among them were n ard with guns—the very ones who had just fired at him.
Found you.
With a cold laugh, Chu Hao swooped down, his gleaming long knife slashing out.
The man holding the gun had his arm cleaved off and scread in agony.
The others were startled.
A low growl ca from one of them as a faint light glowed on his fist. He threw a punch at Chu Hao, displaying Yang Energy.
For an awakened Yin-Yang Person, this is extrely weak.
He didn't even bother to dodge, simply grabbing the man's fist and twisting it hard.
"CRACK!" The man's arm twisted like a pretzel, bones shattering, and he let out a piercing scream.
Chu Hao's gaze was icy. His long knife swung, decapitating the man, blood spraying three feet into the air.
The others were terrified, realizing how naive they had been. Even if Chu Hao is injured and exhausted, he's still beyond our ability to handle! To think that only a few of us ca after him, so desperate for the treasures he possesses...
Soone else fired a gun.
However, Chu Hao moved like a swift gust of wind, dodging the bullets. They missed their mark as he weaved through the attackers, his long knife claiming lives, blood spilling everywhere.
In the blink of an eye, the group of seven or eight n were reduced to corpses, leaving only one survivor.
Chu Hao flicked his long knife, letting the blood drip off. His gaze, as cold as a demon's, fixed on the last man standing.
"Don't... don't kill ! Please, don't kill !" the last man begged, terror-stricken and wetting his pants.
Chu Hao asked, "Who sent you?"
Terrified, the man stamred, "I'll tell you! Just please, don't kill !"
Chu Hao said indifferently, "That depends on what you say."
The man, trembling all over, said, "We're from the Valley Financial Group."
Valley Financial Group? I've never heard of it. These guys aren't from an Evil Cult or Taoism, but so power from the Human World. Acting so arrogant right after awakening... they're clearly clueless about the true imnsity of the world.
Chu Hao sneered. "Go tell the Valley Financial Group to wait. I'll be paying them a personal visit."
The man scrambled away, fleeing the scene in a frenzy. Chu Hao was simply too terrifying.
