Chapter 47

In the pitch-black forest, in another corner, a small figure was speeding through the air.

With each leap, the small figure would dart from the top of one tree to another, like a nimble cat, moving forward at an incredible speed, much like a ninja.

While leaping forward at high speed, the figure's eyes kept darting around, as if desperately searching for something.

The owner of this figure was, of course, Wuming.

"Where could it be?"

Although Wuming's expression showed no signs of anxiety, there was a hint of worry in his voice.

It seemed that Wuming really wanted to find Fang Li.

But...

"Why do I want to find him?"

Wuming still had this question in his mind.

After all, Fang Li was neither a relative nor an old friend to Wuming. They had only met yesterday, and their relationship was not particularly close.

For such a person, Wuming had no reason to look for him.

However, for some reason, Wuming just wanted to find Fang Li.

"Why is that?"

With this question in mind, Wuming continued to leap forward, almost instinctively continuing to search for Fang Li.

"Ah..."

At this moment, a faint, beast-like roar could be heard in the distance.

"That's..." Wuming immediately stopped.

"The sound of Kabane?"

In this era, the only beings that could produce such a sound were almost exclusively Kabane.

Moreover, Wuming was very sensitive to the aura of Kabane and easily detected a large number of them gathered in a certain direction.

"Could it be there?"

Wuming's expression was filled with surprise.

"Is that guy trying to get himself killed?"

Although Wuming didn't know how many Kabane were ahead, from the mixed roars and the overwhelming aura, he could be sure that the number of Kabane gathered there must be in the hundreds.

Even Wuming would need to remove his shackles to deal with such a number, let alone Fang Li.

"Back at Kinkan Station, and here as well, he's so weak, why does he keep rushing into dangerous situations?"

Wuming felt a strange surge of anger.

However, Wuming still followed the noisy roars of the Kabane, leaping forward at high speed.

The noisy roars of the Kabane became increasingly clear.

At this moment, Wuming's nose twitched slightly, and he caught a whiff of a rather pungent smell.

"This is..."

Wuming was very familiar with this smell.

In fact, in this era, even children might have to live with this smell constantly.

"The smell of blood..."

And it was a very pungent smell of blood.

"Could something have happened?"

With this thought, Wuming couldn't help but quicken his pace.

About three minutes later, Wuming arrived at the scene.

In the forest ahead, a large number of Kabane were attacking a single figure, much like a pack of hunting wolves.

Even a highly skilled warrior like Kusunoki Rai would probably not last long against such a number of Kabane and would eventually become their prey.

And as far as Wuming knew, Fang Li's strength was far from Kusunoki Rai's. Trapped in such an attack, he would likely have been torn to pieces long ago.

However, the scene before him made Wuming stop in his tracks, his young and cute face filled with shock.

"AAAAAAHHHHHH——!"

Amidst the roars and attacks of the Kabane, a black shadow darted through the crowd of monsters like a ghost. Wherever it went, the sharp weapon in its hand, like a claw of death, continuously slashed through the bodies of the Kabane.

"Thud—Thud—Thud—!"

The sound of the weapon tearing through flesh was continuous.

Thick blood splattered everywhere.

Under the ordinary dagger's cuts, the Kabane, with their tough skin, were split in two like fragile bark.

It was an extremely bloody and terrifying scene.

Limbs and body parts were scattered across the ground.

Crimson blood flew through the air.

The roars of the Kabane, known as the undead monsters, gradually turned into screams, making the dark forest seem like a hell, evoking a sense of extreme terror.

Seeing this scene, Wuming's eyes couldn't help but widen cutely.

He remembered that just yesterday, Fang Li needed Wuming and the warriors' protection to maneuver through the crowd of Kabane, eventually killing hundreds of them, but he had almost failed to return to the group due to exhaustion.

It had only been one day.

Now, Fang Li was fighting alone in the same crowd of monsters, and he seemed to be enjoying it.

In this situation, with Wuming's keen eyes, how could he not see it?

"How did he get stronger again?"

Yesterday, at Kinkan Station, Wuming had witnessed Fang Li gain the skills of a killer, his attack speed and movement speed suddenly increasing, making him stronger.

Now, Wuming saw it again.

He saw Fang Li become even stronger.

And this time, it was different.

If last time Fang Li had only become a little stronger, now he had undergone a nearly transformative change.

At least, looking at Fang Li's ghost-like speed, immense killing power, and increasingly proficient killing techniques, Wuming was certain.

If it were Fang Li now, even Wuming would need to remove his shackles and use his full strength to defeat him.

"How is this possible?"

Wuming was truly at a loss.

However, there was one thing Wuming knew.

This man was not just a simple wanderer.

"Who is he really?"

This question deeply rooted itself in Wuming's heart.

So much so that Wuming forgot to help, just staying on the treetop, watching Fang Li's brutal fighting, completely unsure of what to do.

"Huh?"

Suddenly, Wuming's pupils contracted.

In the crowd of Kabane, a figure that was clearly different from the others was quietly approaching Fang Li.

Seeing that figure, Wuming shuddered and instinctively shouted.

"Be careful!"

As Wuming's voice echoed, Fang Li's figure in the crowd of Kabane suddenly stopped.

In that instant, a black shadow darted towards Fang Li.
