What Yun Lintian paid attention to right now was an astonishing recovery rate on the skinny man’s bones. Through the Eyes of Heaven, Yun Lintian could see countless strange runes that he had never seen before engraving all over the places on the bones. It somehow emitted a faint crimson light, healing all the injuries.
“Have you seen it? There is something on his bones.” Yun Lintian asked in his mind.
Hongyue’s brows raised slightly as she swept a wisp of her Divine Sense on the skinny man. A trace of surprise immediately appeared on her face when she discovered the strange runes. “This is a bloodline seal.”
“Bloodline seal?” Yun Lintian was puzzled. He tried to search the relevant information in his head, but there was none related to the bloodline seal.
“It’s an extremely ancient method to suppress one’s bloodline. This boy’s background is not ordinary. You can help him out. Perhaps you may get a thing or two in return.” Hongyue briefly explained.
Yun Lintian went silent as he decided to observe further.
At this moment, Hongniu Kangyi smiled mockingly at the skinny man while asking. “Why? Unwilling? Come on! Aren’t you good earlier?”
The skinny man gritted his teeth, staring at Hongniu Kangyi unwillingly. In the next moment, he suddenly felt a refreshing power spreading throughout his entire body. The pain he was experiencing earlier was wholly replaced by a highly comfortable feeling instead. At the same time, he discovered his strength gradually returning… What is going on?
Hongniu Kangyi was utterly unaware of the change in the skinny man’s body. He still talked further. “It’s a pity. Young Master forbids us from killing you. Otherwise, I wouldn’t mind taking your life right now.”
Hearing the words “Young Master,” the hatred in the skinny man’s eyes became intense. A powerful aura abruptly burst out as he swung the axe fiercely at Hongniu Kangyi.
Hongniu Kanyi’s pupils shrank. A deep fear arose in his heart as he hurriedly retreated. However, the skinny man’s attack was too swift and completely caught him off-guard. He simply could not avoid it and was heavily hit on his ribs.
Crackle—
A bone-breaking sound reverberated throughout the forest, followed by a painful scream from Hongniu Kangyi. He was sent flying several meters before directly hitting on a thick tree. Blood kept pouring out of his mouth. He felt his internal organs were thrown into disarray.
Before Hongniu Kangyi could stabilize himself, he suddenly heard an explosion resounding in the air, and the crimson figure instantly appeared in front of him, accompanied by a horrifying heat, as well as an extremely dangerous aura that caused his heart to suddenly tighten.
The skinny man that was currently shrouding with a crimson flame didn’t hesitate to swing the axe down on Hongniu Kangyi’s head. The latter instinctively moved his head away while extending his arm to protect himself.
Puff!
“Argh!” Hongniu Kangyi’s hand was mercilessly chopped, and the crimson flamed axe traveled further, sinking onto his shoulder, causing his entire body to shiver in pain.
“I’ll kill you!” The skinny man roared madly and swiftly sent a kick toward Hongniu Kangyi’s face.
Bang!
Hongniu Kangyi’s head was ruthlessly kicked, pushing it deep into the ancient tree. His body spasmed like a dying worm a few times before completely stopped. He could not be dead more than this.
The skinny man stared at Hongniu Kangyi’s corpse blankly. He didn’t know what had happened and couldn’t believe himself.
“What….?” The crimson flame around him gradually died down, revealing his naked body. He regained his sense and discovered all the injuries on his body, including the bones, were fully recovered as though nothing had happened before. This made him utterly confused.
In the distance, Yun Lintian watched the scene unfold in a surprise. He was certain the skinny man’s strength was only at the peak of the Heaven Profound Realm, but the earlier burst of power was unmistakenly equal to the peak of the Ruler Profound Realm… Did he just meet a protagonist?
In the next moment, a frown appeared on Yun Lintian’s face as he turned in the north direction. A few figures were flying in his direction at breakneck speed. Judging from their aura, they were all at least the early level of the Ruler Profound Realm.
The skinny man was still standing in confusion. He was completely unaware of the incoming group of people. Yun Lintian had no choice but to remind him a bit. “Run. There are people coming.”
Yun Lintian’s voice startled the skinny man, making him look around, and he discovered the group of people flying toward him. His expression abruptly changed, and he hurriedly rushed out with all his might.
Seeing the skinny man running away, Yun Lintian turned to look at the incoming group of people and pointed his finger at the empty space behind him. A powerful flame arrow shot out of the tip of his finger, destroying everything in its path before exploding.
The commotion immediately attracted the incoming people’s attention. They didn’t hesitate to change the direction toward the explosion.
Yun Lintian smiled faintly, and his body turned into a shadow. He reappeared beside Hongniu Kangyi’s lifeless body and reached out to grab him before disappearing from the spot.
The group of four people landed on the explosion site and looked at the scene with frowns. These people had a similar appearance to Hongniu Kangyi, with two horns on their heads and muscular type of bodies.
“What the hell is going on here? Where is Kangyi?” The leading man said while spreading his Spiritual Sense out. Soon, his figure flashed and reappeared beside the position where Hongniu Kangyi was located earlier. .𝒐𝙧𝒈
Looking at the trace of battle, the leading man’s eyes turned cold. He could figure it out immediately. Hongniu Kangyi must encounter a mishap.
“Didn’t he say he’s chasing after that bastard?” Another man standing behind said.
A cold glint flashed through the leading man’s eyes as he looked around briefly and said. “Let’s find him. I’m afraid Kangyi has already fallen in his hand.”
“How could it be possible? We all know that bastard is as weak as an ant.” Another man said in disbelief.
The leading man didn’t say anything further and shot into the sky, flying in the skinny man’s direction, followed by the other three.
