Chapter 155: Escaping (Additional Chapter by the Alliance Leader)

  Hu Gao supported Hu Wushuang, who was shot by an arrow and fainted, staring at the sharp arrow that pierced through Hu Wushuang's left shoulder blade. This arrow had a completely different structure from the one that almost pierced Hu Gao's heart in the war court, but its craftsmanship was exactly the same! Especially the details such as the arrow feathers and blood grooves were almost identical!

  It turned out that the attacker on that day...

  Lang Zhong also found Hu Gao, who was obviously one of the leaders of the Hu family. After sizing him up and down, he suddenly realized: "You're the ancestor's successor of the Hu family, aren't you? So that's why I couldn't find you at the Hu residence! That idiot who didn't manage to kill you with one arrow has already been made to cut off his own arms by me. Thank me! I've avenged you!"

  Hu Gao didn't bother to argue with Lang Hui, and instead turned his head towards Zhu You Tian, asking: "Do you know how to break through this 'Wind Wall'?"

  "The method to break the 'Wind Wall' is simple, but it's too difficult to succeed. As long as you can successfully disrupt the flow of yuan force in his body, the 'Wind Wall' will be broken due to the loss of yuan force support. But this is not easy to do, because he can mobilize the power of the 'Wind Wall' at any time to protect himself, and ordinary attacks are hard to get close to him." Zhu You Tian still has a few tricks up his sleeve, and even the way to break the middle-grade Yuan technique is clear.

  Hu Gao nodded and shouted: "I'll count to three, everyone get ready to break out!"

  Halfway through the air, Langzheng also heard Hu Gao's bold words, and his smile grew thicker: "Since you're so confident, let me take a good look. You bunch of turtles in a jar, how are you going to jump out of this jar?"

  One!

  Two!

  Three!

  At the same time as shouting "three", an invisible blood light impact, like a bloody arrow, flew towards Lang Zhong in mid-air! The wind wall that could both attack and defend had no effect on this shapeless blood light impact, and the power of the Blood Serpent Totem directly pierced Lang Zhong's unguarded divine soul!

  Divine soul under attack, even if Lang Zhong has already reached the explosive yuan boundary, the flow of yuan force in his body still cannot help but stagnate.

  The wall of wind collapsed instantly!

  The people of the Zhu and Hu families followed him out!

  Everything happened in just an instant!

  The Wu and Wei families' people who were kneeling on the periphery had not yet reacted to what was happening when the Hu and Zhu families' people had already passed through their encirclement and escaped in two different directions.

  Liang Zhen only lost his composure for a moment before regaining his clarity. Seeing that the turtles in the jar had all escaped, there was not a hint of defeat or anger on his face, but instead he smiled even more happily: "A direct attack on the soul... how interesting... it seems that the successor of the Hu family's ancestral teachings is not completely without fun."

  "Liang Shao, what should we do now?" asked Wu Jia's family master with a respectful tone.

  "You go after the Zhu family, as for the Hu family, you don't need to worry about it." Lang Zheng waved his hand and took out a silver longbow from the spatial ring, opened the bow with his right hand, condensed the yuan force into an arrow, "Shoot!"

  A loud "Ready", the condensed arrow shot out like a meteor, chasing after the moon! Flying halfway, the arrow split into ten, attacking the last ten people of the Hu family who were running behind!

  Those ten people didn't even have time to react before they were nailed to the ground by arrows and lost their lives.

  Lang Zhong's movement had just begun, and he assumed a sprinter's stance in mid-air. Suddenly, a whirlwind appeared at his feet, and the next instant, Lang Zhong was chasing after the fleeing Hu family members with a speed even faster than the arrow he had just shot out!

  When Lang Zhong's fierce attack reached Hu Gao and his companions, they had just charged out a distance of less than one li.

  "Long time no see! My lovely food." Lang Jun said with a graceful bow to the stunned Hu family.

  Absolutely overwhelming power! And an even more terrifying speed!

  That's why Lang Jia entrusted the task of raiding Hu Jia's rear to Lang Zhong.

  Hú Gāo is now in a very bad state, having just used Blood Light Overdrive to attack Láng Zhēng's divine soul. He discovered that the divine soul of an Explosive Yuan Boundary expert was far stronger than he had imagined. Although that one blow successfully made Láng Zhēng momentarily stunned, the counterforce of his divine soul also left Hú Gāo's own divine soul severely injured.

  Forcing himself to focus, Hu Gao's mind was a bit dazed as he stared intently at Lang Xiong. In the instant their eyes met, Hu Gao felt his heart suddenly and violently skip a beat, and an extreme sense of danger arose out of nowhere. This feeling, Hu Gao had experienced once before. It was when he was in a wilderness survival training session before crossing over, and he had locked eyes with a wolf preparing to pounce!

  Hu Gao and Yun Feng exchanged a glance, then Hu Gao handed the unconscious Hu Wu Shuang over to Yun Feng, who carried her on his back, securing her with a cloth strip.

  "Everyone scatter and run! Run first! We'll figure out how to gather again later!" Hu Gao shouted.

  Now Hu Gao has become the mainstay of the Hu family here, and as soon as he speaks, everyone disperses without hesitation, fleeing in all directions.

  Yunfeng is no exception.

  Just now, Hu Gao's gaze clearly meant: "The opponent is rushing towards me, we'll split up and act separately! For the time being, I'll leave Wushuang in your care, protect her well!"

  Yun Feng agreed without hesitation because he believed in Hu Gao, believing that Hu Gao had enough strength and luck to escape the danger tonight.

  Looking at the scattered crowd, Lang Xie laughed even more happily: "Do you think that by letting them scatter and escape, I won't be able to kill them?"

  "This will at least give them more time to escape." Hu Gao did not deny his intentions. As the crisis became unavoidable, the tension in Hu Gao's heart also began to dissipate, replaced by his usual carefree and casual demeanor.

  "Unfortunately, I didn't come alone." Lang Zhong snapped his fingers.

  Upon hearing their master's summons, three black-clad figures rushed forth from three directions simultaneously, kneeling down before Lang Zhong and awaiting the order to kill.

  "You two go and bring back that woman who is bleeding with 'ancestral blood'. You, go and kill the others. If things are unfavorable, you can borrow manpower from the Wu family or the Wei family." Lang Zhong ordered.

  "Yes!" The three of them received their orders and each set off in pursuit of their target.

  "You don't seem to be very worried?" Lang Zhong tilted his head, teasingly asking, "Looking at how close you are with that woman, she should be your mistress, right? You're not even worried about her safety, and yet you handed her over to others to take away, tsk... I really can't understand your behavior!"

  "I believe in my brother!" Hu Gao replied firmly and resolutely.

  "Unfortunately, I only believe in power."

  "What is 'the blood of Zu Hua'?" Hu Gao threw out his biggest doubt from the bottom of his heart.

  Just now, when Hu Wu's internal heat energy surged, Hu Gao sensed that it was a powerful force from the same origin as his own internal heat energy. The Lang family obviously had a special method to deal with this power, which was the "Sealing Pulse Arrow" that shot out of Hu Wu's scapula.

  It was that "Sealing Pulse Arrow" that made Hu Gao discover that the Hu family must still have many secrets that he didn't know about. These secrets, the various elders and Hu Wushuang must be aware of, but they had been keeping them from him all along.

  Hugao directly told him that these secrets must have a great connection with Lang Zheng's "ancestral blood" just now.

  "You don't know about the 'Ancestral Blood'? Lang Zhong's question to Hu Gao was also slightly strange, "It seems... your Hu family thinks you're not qualified to touch the core secrets of the Hu family yet, so they've been keeping it from you all along... Poor thing, being excluded and marginalized."

  "Is it interesting to sow discord? Unfortunately, I don't buy into this at all."

  This thing, the Sowing Discord Plot, is something that Hu Gao has seen a lot of in those original history books and film works. In his opinion, this kind of obvious discord sowing is simply child's play for a three-year-old.

  "Sowing discord? No, no, no! You've got it wrong!" Lang argued, waving his hands repeatedly. "How could I possibly sow discord? Or rather, what qualifications do you have to let me sow discord? The reason I'm chatting with you is just to hope that you won't be too tense before you die, so as not to affect the quality of your flesh. As for the 'ancestral blood' you're concerned about... why should I tell you?"

  "You don't want to say, that's fine. Later will be endless." As soon as the words fell, Hu Gao concentrated his strength in his legs and took off running. With the help of the yuan force exploding under his feet and producing a counterforce, Hu Gao instantly burst out over a hundred meters!

  Hú Gāo was using the reverse thrust to speed up, and at the same time, he was having a spiritual connection with a great man in his heart: "Newton! Praise me! I have already applied your wisdom crystal to an alien world. Considering how hard I am working to promote you, let me run a bit faster, okay?"

  He probably forgot that he is now much faster than Bolt, even if Newton wanted to help him, it would be hard to keep up.

  Hú Gāo's relaxed state of mind didn't last long, as just a few breaths later, Lǎng Zhēng swept past him like a whirlwind! In the instant they crossed paths, Hú Gāo suddenly felt a stinging pain in his arm. When he looked down, the clothes on his forearm were already torn to shreds, and a layer of muscle had been sliced off, but the healing power from the mysterious jade pendant was repairing this seemingly minor injury.

  Lan turned around in front of Hu Gao, his right thumb and index finger lightly pinched a thin piece of meat as thin as a cicada's wing, gazing at the light of the morning star for a while before putting it into his mouth to savor slowly.

  "Not bad meat quality." Lang Zhong evaluated, "Although it's not the kind that melts in your mouth with freshness, this unique texture of the meat is still not bad. Your injuries are recovering quickly... Ah, I remembered, Wu family's people once told me that your physical recovery ability is astonishing, and you were once considered to be an immortal body. It seems that you can satisfy my appetite for a very long time... Until I get tired of this flavor... Don't worry, I will take it one piece at a time, you won't feel much pain."

  Hu Gao couldn't help but shiver with cold.

  The cruel words made him think of a particularly brutal form of torture - Lingchi!

  What's even more frightening is that as long as the mysterious jade pendant remains by one's side, and as long as one's spirit does not collapse, the healing ability will continue indefinitely. At that time, Lang's cruel hobby will evolve into an endless torture!
