Chapter 93

Update Time: May 7, 2013

Cheng Fugui felt as if the world had been inverted, cold sweat pouring down like a waterfall, drenching his splendid robe. He felt as if an invisible hand had covered his mouth and nose, suffocating him, and the feeling of suffocation overwhelmed him.

No matter how quickly he circulated his internal energy, it was not fast enough to escape the hand that held him. His chest felt heavy, his face turned blue, and he felt as if he couldn't breathe.

He couldn't imagine why Wen Junlai, who had been smiling and discussing the treasure hunt with him just a moment ago, would suddenly have the intention to kill him. They hadn't met often, had he made a mistake? He wanted to ask this question but knew it was too late.

Because his eyes saw a glint of cold light!

A white-handled steel dagger appeared in Wen Junlai's left hand at some point! His right hand still held Cheng Fugui's right hand, and with a sudden pull, Cheng Fugui involuntarily crashed towards Wen Junlai! The cold, sharp dagger awaited him!

In Cheng Fugui's wide-open eyes, the cold light seemed to welcome him like a hospitable host!

"Thud!" The dagger pierced through Cheng Fugui's right shoulder well, and Yun Mo cruelly twisted the dagger in his shoulder.

"Ahh!" Cheng Fugui shouted.

"Bang!" Yun Mo kicked Cheng Fugui in the face, sending him flying! The jade black crown on his head shattered into pieces as it hit the ground.

"Clang!" Cheng Fugui's body crashed heavily into the wall and then fell to the stone floor. His body, now limp like a pile of mud, could no longer move.

"Swish!" Blood spurted from the wound on Cheng Fugui's shoulder, drenching him in a pool of blood.

His face was a mess of blood and flesh, flattened by Yun Mo's kick, and most of his teeth were knocked out. Yun Mo's kick was full of hatred, and Cheng Fugui suffered greatly, but he could only groan faintly, unable to even scream in pain.

The bone-softening powder began to take effect, and Cheng Fugui fell!

But there was still one person who hadn't fallen: Zhou Quan with the goatee.

Yun Mo kicked Cheng Fugui away and, like a bolt of lightning, rushed towards Zhou Quan! The dagger in his hand aimed at Zhou Quan's thigh, and with one thrust, he could instantly subdue the old man!

Yun Mo's speed was extremely fast. He had activated the Violent Thunder Vajra, his body swelling, and his speed reached that of a Seventh Rank Tianyou cultivator. This thrust was without mercy!

He was fast, but Zhou Quan was faster, flying diagonally away!

"How is this possible?" Yun Mo's mind was full of questions. "Zhou Quan only has a faint white light, indicating he is only a Third Rank Tianyou cultivator. How could he dodge my sudden attack?"

His diagonal flight was as fast as an arrow, clearly indicating he possessed a terrifying light body technique!

Yun Mo stopped abruptly! His body was as immovable as a rock, his face calm as he looked at Zhou Quan, who had landed lightly on the ground, eyes narrowing dangerously.

The dagger in his hand, as heavy as a thousand pounds, was raised inch by inch, the tip pointing at Zhou Quan, whose expression had calmed.

Zhou Quan's body, though agile and coiling like a dragon, was now filled with fear. "Damn, I almost got caught here. Who is this Wen Junlai?" His eyes were filled with doubt.

"Captain Wen, I never expected you to act like this. It's truly shocking!" He glanced at the fallen Cheng Fugui and said calmly.

"Mutual, mutual. I never expected a Third Rank Tianyou shrimp to suddenly become a peak Tenth Rank Tianyou expert! I am truly impressed, sir. You are truly remarkable!" Yun Mo responded, looking at the light radiating from Zhou Quan's body.

Zhou Quan's face changed, and he said casually, "Captain Wen, you are joking. How have I offended you? Please, Captain Wen, explain clearly. If it is my fault, I am willing to apologize and make amends. Let's turn swords into plowshares, what do you say, Captain Wen?"

"Hmph, turning swords into plowshares, Zhou Quan, are you joking? To be honest, I have no grudge against you. It's your spy identity that has been exposed! I was ordered by the Grand Commander to secretly capture you and Cheng Fugui. Do you think you can escape? The area is already surrounded by a large number of guards. Today, you have no chance of escape! Spy, surrender now!"

Yun Mo's roar shook Zhou Quan to his core.

"How is this possible?" Zhou Quan's mind was in turmoil. Since he was skillfully arranged to enter Ziyeh City, he had always been low-key, flattering Cheng Fugui. Over the years, he had gathered countless valuable intelligence for Zixia City, and there were two times when the city lord's son was attacked, which were closely related to him!

Because of his great contributions, Zixia City had provided countless benefits to his family in secret! He always thought his performance was flawless, and the concealment technique was a high-level combat skill personally taught by the city lord of Zixia City. Even the city lord of Ziyeh City couldn't see through his true cultivation level! How could he be exposed?

"You are lying!" He roared. "I am loyal to Ziyeh City, my loyalty is as clear as the sun and moon! Don't spout nonsense." Zhou Quan no longer hunched over, standing straight and shouting fiercely, his face full of indignation.

"Phew!" Yun Mo secretly exhaled, realizing that Zhou Quan had hidden his cultivation level. He suspected that Zhou Quan might be a spy planted in Ziyeh City, so he tried to trick him. Although Zhou Quan's expression changed for only a moment, Yun Mo noticed it, and now he had a clear idea.

"This old man has reached the Tenth Rank Tianyou level. Even if I activate a super combat skill, I might not have an advantage. Now that he is afraid, it will give me a great opportunity. As long as I can scratch his skin, I will win this battle!"

"Old man, stop your nonsense. The Grand Commander has solid evidence. Otherwise, why would I be here? Cheng Fugui was treated this way because he was too close to you and inadvertently leaked too many secrets of our city. Do you think you can escape unscathed? I advise you to surrender quickly, confess your crimes, and try to atone for your sins. Perhaps the Grand Commander will see your usefulness and spare your life. I advise you not to resist. I will capture you, but if the Grand Commander has to act, well... you can imagine the result!"

The name of Ziyeh Thunder Venerable shook Zhou Quan to his core. Seeing Yun Mo confidently declare that he was a spy, it was clear that they had solid evidence. What should he do? If the Thunder Venerable acts, he would surely die without a trace! Zhou Quan's mind was in chaos.

"Great opportunity!" Yun Mo waited for this moment. In a fraction of a second, he quickly formed a seal, and a vast power descended invisibly. His body became ethereal and unpredictable, his power reaching around the Ninth Rank Tianyou level. With a long whistle, he thrust the dagger towards Zhou Quan like a bolt of lightning, aiming for a non-critical area to feign a live capture.

There was no time! Cheng Fugui lay motionless, and Zhou Quan had no time to check. He only thought that Cheng Fugui had been knocked unconscious by Yun Mo. He didn't realize that the dagger in Wen Junlai's hand was coated with the highly toxic bone-softening powder.

"Ha, Captain Wen, you can't catch me. I can still escape even if I kill you!" Zhou Quan said after using his light body technique to evade Yun Mo's attack. He believed he was exposed and no longer hid his spy identity. His goal was to kill Wen Junlai and quickly escape from Ziyeh City.

Wen Junlai's sudden super combat skill didn't surprise him; everyone in the city knew about it. However, Wen Junlai's persistent pursuit was extremely annoying!

Even if Wen Junlai had nearly reached the Ninth Rank, how could he be a match for a Tenth Rank Tianyou in a direct confrontation?

Moreover, he still had a trump card! A seemingly ordinary dark black ankle bracelet on his foot glowed faintly, and a strange weapon appeared in his hand!

A chain, a purple-black chain, about two meters long, with a 20-centimeter black spike at the front.

"Oh no!" Yun Mo was shocked. "Isn't this a mini wind spike? And it's a low-grade yellow weapon!" It had 11 spirit patterns, and Yun Mo recognized it immediately.

Zhou Quan gained great confidence after drawing his weapon.

"Swish!" Thousands of chain shadows shot out, creating a whistling wind in the air. Layers of green-black wind blades formed around the chain, and one could imagine the effect when this weapon wrapped around an enemy's body! With the wind blades, the weapon's power increased dramatically!

The chain shadows completely enveloped Yun Mo, coming at him with overwhelming force, unstoppable and unbreakable!

The chain shadows drew strange, unpredictable arcs in the room, whistling as they shot towards Yun Mo's chest. The spike burst with terrifying energy, sweeping away the surrounding air, and with the speed of a stone fire, aimed to pin Yun Mo to the ground with a single strike!

Yun Mo couldn't even try to use a trick to redirect the force; it was too fast! "A Tenth Rank Tianyou with a low-grade yellow divine weapon is not something I can match now!"

Yun Mo's eyes flashed with determination. He retracted the dagger, moved to the left, and thrust it straight out, using a subtle force.

"Thud!" The wind spike, unstoppable, pierced through Yun Mo's chest armor and deeply into his chest.

The tip of the spike protruded from Yun Mo's back.

"Ahh!" Yun Mo screamed in pain, his eyes almost tearing.

Because of his movement, the mini wind spike pierced through the upper part of his right chest. The wind blades on it turned his chest flesh into a bloody mess. "Swish," the tip was pulled out. "Bang," Yun Mo fell to the ground, blood gushing out, staining his body red.

"Clang!" Just as Zhou Quan was about to take advantage of his victory and strike again, he suddenly lost all strength in his hand and became stiff. He fell heavily to the ground like a piece of wood.

Zhou Quan felt his body become limp and soft, his eyes filled with disbelief. He looked at his thigh, where half of a dagger tip was embedded, reflecting the light from the surrounding torches, looking eerie, like the smile of death.
