Chapter 70

.

Mu Yi felt a special sensation and his strength was flowing differently in his body . He knew that he couldn’t level up right now though . Mu Yi didn’t know what to do . If he had found the way to level up, he wouldn’t feel so desperate .

In Xugui’s eyes, Mu Yi had limits . He wouldn’t have trump cards .

He looked at Mu Yi and said, “If you listen to me, you can still be happy . If you don’t, you will regret it . ”

Mu Yi didn’t feel threatened by this at all . He felt calm and serene . Mu Yi didn’t feel hopeless . Therefore, he focused on thinking of a solution .

Xugui’s body had changed . He had become physically stronger which was why the five thunders charm hadn’t killed him instantly . If Mu Yi wanted to kill Xugui, he would need to find what made him that strong .

His body was pitch-black, like ebony and it looked indestructible . No matter what, evil spirit slaying charms or five thunders charms couldn’t break through his body’s defense . Mu Yi attempted to guess what had happened to Xugui . He needed to find clues .

He gave up rather quickly and felt hopeless again . He tried to think of things the old Taoist Priest had told him or of books he had read but he had never heard or read anything about such physical changes . Mu Yi had realized that Xugui had become slower .

He couldn’t remain like that all the time . He had to have weaknesses . If Mu Yi found his weakness, he would have a chance . He could win . He would also be able to use the five thunders charm to be sure that he won .

“You want to me to surrender? I would prefer dying to becoming something that’s neither a ghost nor a human being like you,” said Mu Yi mockingly .

He was worried about Nian Nuer, but he couldn’t do much from inside the hall . He could only hope she stayed safe until he got rid of Xugui . He would e able to help her then .

“Neither a ghost nor a human being?” Xugui said .

Xugui was angry after Mu Yi mocked him . He cared about his physical appearance . He had become like this because of something but it didn’t mean he was willing to . He cared a lot about people’s opinions, especially Mu Yi who was his sworn enemy .

“I wouldn’t have become like this if it wasn’t for you . I’m suffering a lot . Each time I think of it, I want to rip off your skin and eat your flesh . I’m warning you, I’ll make you suffer ten times more than you made me suffer,” said Xugui aggressively while glaring at Mu Yi .

“So you joined hands with Little Frost’s bandits and the spirit protector to make me come to this place?” Mu Yi asked .

“Indeed . As long as I can kill you, it’ll be worth it . I won’t let the Su Clan off either . I will destroy them . I’ll imprison all their souls . They’ll never die but they’ll never be really alive again,” said Xugui .

Mu Yi sighed . It was obvious from all of this that Xugui hated him too much . Mu Yi stared at Xugui the entire time . When someone became less vigilant, their deficiencies appeared .

Mu Yi realized that even though Xugui was angry when he was talking, he kept moving sideways . He didn’t want Mu Yi to see him from his left side . The side on which he had lost an arm . It meant there was a problem with that side . Maybe it had something to do with Xugui’s defense?

Is it his weakness? Mu Yi thought . He wasn’t sure, but it was a possibility . Xugui had lost his left arm . It was a big problem . Now his body had become strange so maybe that was his weakness . Mu Yi looked at Xugui . He felt like there was something he was still missing .

“Even if you get your revenge, so what? You think you will become normal again? If an ordinary person saw you, they’d think you were an animal, a monster . They’d run far, far away from you . You’ll never find a lover and you’ll be alone forever . You will wish you were dead because you will never have descendants,” said Mu Yi rather aggressively .

As expected, when Xugui heard Mu Yi, he got angrier . His face started to become normal again . It was only a bit distorted . Mu Yi’s words hurt him . He became a monster because of Mu Yi .

Mu Yi was his worst enemy . He was standing in front of him and making fun of him . He was losing his ability to reason because of the fury he was feeling .

“Die, I want you to die!” Xugui screamed .

He threw himself at Mu Yi . Mu Yi had just continued to stare at him . He saw Xugui jump at him and took out an evil spirit slaying charm . He looked at Xugui and quickly moved aside . Mu Yi made sure to chose an angle so that he could see Xugui’s missing arm .

Without any hesitation, he took out his last five thunders charm .

Xugui had already come back to his senses when Mu Yi pulled out the charm . He also noticed that Mu Yi was aiming it at his missing arm . The five thunders charm landed on Xugui’s stump . Xugui’s body changed again when it did .

Xugui howled . The pain was unbearable . Dazzling white lights dispersed all around them and Mu Yi was able to see Xugui’s silhouette clearly .

Half of Xugui’s body was black . It was different . He had lost half of his vitality . He almost looked like a corpse . Even if his body changed again, he wouldn’t be as strong as before .
