Chapter 57: Chapter 55: Inner Disciple
Please continue reading on ΒOXΝʘVEL.ϹΟM .The man with the Insect Eye panted heavily as he frantically fled. Hearing the footsteps growing heavier behind him, he couldn't help but look back.
In the forest, flocks of birds took flight en masse, and a trail of dust rapidly approached in his direction—the result of trees being forcefully knocked down.
“Damn it, who said his strength was mediocre? Is this what you call mediocre?”
The disturbance sent chills over the man with the Insect Eye as he tried to gauge the distance between himself and Su Jie.
Even though he had stuck a Godspeed Talisman on his legs in an attempt to escape his pursuer, he couldn't really increase the distance. Instead, the sounds of the pursuit grew ever closer.
Oddly, the man with the Insect Eye thought of a cat playing with a mouse.
With the speed of the White Bone Sky Slaying Sword, he shouldn't have been able to make it this far.
Unfortunately, in his panic, the man with the Insect Eye had no time to think deeply, or rather, he dared not think about it.
The sparse light in the jungle had already frightened the man with the Insect Eye, turning him into a scared bird.
Especially the deep shadows cast by the dense canopy and the twisted, dry branches swaying in the wind, which seemed like multiple shadows of Su Jie watching him from the darkness, leaving him with nothing but fear.
“I can't escape. There's no escape at all. Someone needs to help me delay him, buy me time to get back to Brother Feng. Only then might I have a chance to survive.”
The tightly wound nerve in the man with the Insect Eye was about to snap. At that moment, he turned to look at another man who had fled with him, also an inner disciple with Fifth Level of Yunling Realm cultivation. A malicious look flashed across his face as the black beetle in his left eye suddenly writhed and burrowed out of his eye socket.
This was his low-grade life-bound poisonous insect. Once it crawled out, its wings unfolded, emitting a mist that silently spread.
The man, also with Fifth Level of Yunling Realm cultivation, suddenly went limp as if drunk, struck by the poison.
This type of poisonous insect was mediocre in direct combat but sinisterly effective in ambush—despite the other man's preparedness, he fell victim to the schemes of the man with the Insect Eye.
“Thank you, fellow Daoist. Help me hold off that monster for a while. I will find someone to avenge you.”
Not stopping for a moment, the man with the Insect Eye leapt over the other man and plunged deeper into the dense forest.
“You won't die a good death.”
The enfeebled man roared bitterly, but his anger was futile. He could only helplessly listen to the increasingly approaching sounds of pursuit, as the fearsome low-grade three-refining poisonous insect came into view, its eyes emitting intense fear and despair.
…
After a short while, the heart of the man with the Insect Eye trembled.
He faintly heard a scream from behind, which made him speed up even more.
Minutes later, the man with the Insect Eye caught sight of a small stream in the distance.
Under the willow trees by the stream, a handsome young man with clear and gentle eyes and dressed in a white robe leaned against a tree. With one hand propping his cheek, he enjoyed the sunlight and breeze while admiring the lively swimming fish in the stream, seemingly immersed in his own world, exuding a sense of comfort and ease.
Upon hearing footsteps, the young man slightly lifted his eyelids and spoke indifferently, “Why are you the only one back? Did you handle things well?”
With a thud!
The man with the Insect Eye knelt on the ground, his voice trembling, “Brother Feng, that Su… Su Jie was pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger. His strength is not at all as weak as we anticipated. Everyone we sent has been killed by him.”
“What are you saying? You can't even deal with an Outer Disciple? He wields the White Bone Sky Slaying Sword; didn't you guys team up? Could his Flying Sword still protect him, you bunch of trash.”
Brother Feng snorted disdainfully and disdainfully kicked the man with the Insect Eye on the ground.
“No, Brother Feng, Su Jie… he's not just about the White Bone Sky Slaying Sword. He also has… ”
“What else? You think finding excuses will save you? Incompetence in handling matters and wasting Spiritual Energy just by being alive.”
Feng Wenjin interrupted the man with the Insect Eye without explanation, for he had seen too many of those who looked for excuses for their losses.
“I didn't lie, Su Jie really has…”
The man with the Insect Eye hastily shouted, but before he could finish his sentence, Brother Feng's eyes sharpened, and he suddenly slapped toward the man with the Insect Eye.
Buzzing!
Countless tiny mosquitoes and flies formed a palm-sized one zhang square, which swooped down with a howl.
“Brother Feng, I really tried my best.”
The man with the Insect Eye was terrified and instinctively tried to dodge.
However, the palm formed by the mosquitoes and flies merely swept over the man's head, carrying with it a foul wind, and several dragonflies that couldn't dodge in time were shattered into blood foam by the powerful slap.
“Idiot, trailed by a long line without even realizing it.”
Brother Feng snorted coldly, his hands clasped behind his back as he gazed into the depths of the dense forest, slowly saying, “Mr. Su, since you are here, why not show yourself.”
The branches and leaves in the dense forest shook as a figure slowly stepped out.
Just as this figure appeared, Brother Feng raised his right arm, and a dark light burst from his sleeve, instantly piercing through the heart of the figure emerging from the forest.
Upon closer inspection, that dark light was actually a black centipede with six pairs of wings, arm-length, and its belly's limbs were shaped like blades, cutting like an electric saw in rapid flight, incomparably sharp.
“Hmm, an Insect Puppet?”
Brother Feng saw the figure's heart pierced, yet there was no trace of joy on his face.
Because that was clearly a corpse puppet forcibly controlled by insects.
The man with the Insect Eye also saw the figure clearly, and felt a chill in his heart.
This figure was precisely the man with the Fifth Level of Yunling Realm Cultivation whom he had underhandedly placed behind to draw Su Jie's attention; he had already lost all signs of life, and even in death, he was not left in peace but used to scout the way.
“Insect Control Technique, that is a magic skill only inner disciples are allowed to observe, where did you learn it from?”
Brother Feng's gaze deepened as his eyes swept repeatedly through the forest, trying to locate Su Jie's figure.
Whistling sounds!
Several fire streaks shot out from the forest, a swarm of small flies had just appeared, only to be burnt to ashes; these flies were reconnaissance insects controlled by Brother Feng using the Insect Control Technique.
However, Brother Feng didn't care at all, more flies flew chaotically in the forest, quickly detecting traces of movement.
“As expected of an inner disciple, your mastery of the Insect Control Technique is more proficient.”
Along with a burst of applause from within the forest, Su Jie clapped his hands as he walked out from the gloomy and ominous forest.
Since both parties mastered the Insect Control Technique, hiding was not very meaningful.
After walking a few dozen meters, Su Jie stopped his steps, and both parties stood opposite each other across a small stream, sizing each other up.
“I didn't expect that the one hunting me would be an inner disciple under Elder Yi's lineage; your name is Feng Wenjin, right?”
Su Jie recognized the identity of the handsome man opposite, having met him once before.
Back then, at a black market betting fight, this man was an inner disciple under Yi Jingu, and the opponent had competed with Pei Haibing in hunting Alien Ghosts; although they had tied, in the end, the emerging Su Jie had taken the lead.
