Chapter 151 Cao Tai's Death, Pursuit of Xia Yuhui
The python king's pupils shrank instantly, but when it saw the two miniature giant swords, it laughed and flicked its tail, shattering both swords instantly.
Then, it opened its mouth and spat out a large cloud of black gas, which struck Gu Ping squarely.
However, Gu Ping turned into a puppet on the spot and then disappeared.
The python king held the wooden puppet, lost in thought. "Heh, this must be that old man's disciple. I wonder if that old man is willing to pay the price to treat him."
After pondering for a while, the Python King vanished again in an instant. This time, however, it didn't chase after Luo Yun Dao Ren and Cao Tai, who were both in the late Foundation Establishment stage, but rather the unremarkable Xia Yu Hui.
Meanwhile, Xia Yuhui was looking grimly at Cao Tai, who had followed behind him.
Just after everyone started to run away, Cao Tai suddenly followed them, for some unknown reason.
They had already said they would run separately, but he simply stuck to Xia Yuhui.
This infuriated Xia Yuhui. As a mid-Foundation Establishment cultivator with such speed, he was a very small target, so his survival rate was definitely the highest among everyone present. However, things were different now, with Cao Tai following behind him.
I'm afraid that once the python king catches up and kills Cao Tai, he will definitely be targeted.
Thinking of this, he could no longer hold back and shouted angrily, "Fellow Daoist Cao, what do you mean by this?"
"Fellow Daoist Xia, wait for me! The more people there are, the more strength we have!" Cao Tai behind him was shouting anxiously, completely disregarding whether Xia Yuhui wanted to or not.
Deep down, he knew Xia Yuhui was unwilling, but so what? He couldn't very well lay a hand on him, could he? Who was he? He was the deputy hall master of the Guiyun Sect's Battle Hall.
To lay a hand on him would be insubordination, and if Xia Yuhui were charged with that, he wouldn't survive even if he escaped back to the market.
Xia Yuhui witnessed the shamelessness of the Guiyun Sect cultivators once again, but he was helpless and could only prepare for the worst.
Thinking of this, he immediately summoned the second-tier demon wolf, then quickly cut open his arm and smeared his blood on the demon wolf's back.
However, after he finished doing all this, he suddenly turned around, but he saw nothing. But Xia Yuhui knew that the third-tier demon beast had caught up with them.
And it's not far from Caotai.
Realizing the danger, Xia Yuhui immediately released the second-tier demon wolf, and the wolf and Xia Yuhui immediately ran away separately.
On the way, he smeared some blood on a dozen or so puppet beasts, just like before, and then let them scatter.
His purpose in doing so was to confuse the public.
According to his understanding, monsters usually track each other using their keen sense of smell, and he smeared blood on the monsters and puppet beasts to confuse their sense of smell.
Meanwhile, nearly two thousand miles away from Xia Yuhui, Cao Tai looked at the black dot approaching him from behind, then turned to look at Xia Yuhui, who had already disappeared, and a look of despair appeared on his face.
As the black dot behind him drew closer, a ferocious expression gradually appeared on his face. When the python king got a little closer, he suddenly turned around, and thousands of flying swords appeared behind him.
"kill!"
Thousands of flying swords immediately began to spin and surged towards the Python King. These flying swords were incredibly powerful; a single sword could be a powerful spell, let alone thousands of them.
However, the python king didn't even lift its eyelids. After thousands of flying swords struck its body, they immediately turned into dust.
When the python king lifted its eyelids again, two incredibly powerful magical weapons appeared before it.
At the same time, Cao Tai, whose entire body was engraved with black runes, also appeared not far away.
At this moment, Cao Tai's expression was incredibly complex, showing a mixture of passion, madness, and even a touch of exhilaration.
He had made thorough preparations; those two high-quality magical weapons were merely intended to blind the python king.
The runes engraved on his body are his ultimate killing technique; he intends to perish together with this python king. Even if he fails to kill it in the end, he will still bite off a chunk of flesh.
However, just as he was getting into the swing of things, he suddenly felt weak all over, and he couldn't even muster up his magic power. His two magical weapons had also shattered long ago.
Instantly, he realized something was wrong and immediately tried to activate the secret technique. However, before he could even start it, he fell straight down from the sky.
After it crashed heavily to the ground, its body immediately exploded, blasting everything within a radius of one kilometer with tremendous force.
After finishing, the Python King quickly chased after Xia Yuhui. As a third-tier demon beast, and one whose true form could fly, the Python King's speed was far beyond what Xia Yuhui could match.
Even though Xia Yuhui was more than 5,000 miles away from the Python King, it didn't take long for the Python King to catch up.
However, it chased the wrong target. Looking at the demon wolf that it had killed with a single slap, it stared blankly in the direction where Xia Yuhui had fled.
The reason he was chasing Xia Yuhui was because Xia Yuhui carried the aura of its descendants, which meant that the human had killed one of its offspring.
And now, this human dares to play tricks on it like this! It couldn't take it anymore.
The python king roared to the sky, scaring away all the monsters within a hundred miles. Then, it leaped into the air and, like a real dragon, swiftly swam towards Xia Yuhui.
And this time, it seemed to have used some method, and those puppet beasts stained with Xia Yuhui's blood were not fooled at all.
One man and one beast, one chasing and one fleeing.
This process lasted for a full quarter of an hour. In the end, Xia Yuhui was caught up. Now, the distance between the man and the beast is less than a hundred miles.
Xia Yuhui was still tens of thousands of miles away from the market, but he did not give up on escaping. He still had hope. The python had made such a commotion that the two Golden Core cultivators in the market must have already set out.
What he needs to do now is stall, stall it, and then he will have a chance.
Thinking of this, he immediately took out five or six second-tier pills to restore his mana from his storage bag and swallowed them in one gulp. Although his escape technique was incredibly fast, its weakness was also obvious: his mana was consumed too quickly. Now, his originally abundant mana was only a little over 40% left.
Furthermore, he had already consumed four or five bottles of pills along the way, and his meridians were already unable to withstand such strong medicinal power. If he escaped this time, it would take at least a month to nourish his meridians.
However, he no longer had time to deal with such trivial matters. Xia Yuhui guessed that all of this might have been caused by the python he had killed; otherwise, the Python King would never have chased after such a nobody as him.
"You old scoundrel Black Cloud, you've caused a lot of harm!"
Xia Yuhui was filled with resentment. Did the Guiyun Sect really want him dead before they could feel at ease? They always targeted him.
After some time, the distance between the human and the demon closed considerably. Xia Yuhui looked at the enormous dragon body swimming around in the sky, his mind filled with fear.
