Chapter 58

Liu Hong arrived at the Zui Xiang Ke Winehouse but did not find the man who called himself Kuang Nu. However, fortunately, she learned the direction the man had gone from a woman in armor.

The raging fire in her heart made her forget to even say thank you as she rushed out the door.

"What a strange woman!"

Watching Liu Hong's retreating back, Wang Chao's lips curled into a smile.

"I didn't expect this small town to be so full of hidden dragons and tigers. Just when a terrifying man left, now comes a powerful mage. This is getting more and more interesting."

With her sharp senses, Wang Chao immediately recognized Liu Hong as a mage, though she didn't know that Liu Hong was a melee mage. Otherwise, she would have been even more surprised.

Unable to resist her curiosity, Wang Chao finally decided to secretly follow and see what was going on.

Just as Wang Chao started to follow, a little boy of about three years old suddenly appeared in a corner of an alley next to the Zui Xiang Ke Winehouse.

"Things are getting more and more mysterious. Why would Sister Wang Chao appear here?"

Dong Fangxiuzhe was deep in thought.

He had been following Liu Hong, but unexpectedly ran into Wang Chao, whom he had met before.

"It seems I was right to follow her. There's definitely going to be a good show!"

Thinking this, Dong Fangxiuzhe's face also broke into a smile. He made a hand sign and turned into a cloud of white smoke, disappearing from the spot.

※※※※※※※※

In a desolate area of the western district, three people were walking from a distance.

"Damn it, that woman is still chasing us without stopping. I really want to skin her alive," said Bapi Gui, his withered face looking quite sinister.

"I'll skin her, I'll dig out her heart, and then Fen Shi Gui will tear her to pieces. Haha~" Kai Chang Gui's laugh sounded like a howl.

"Unfortunately, the three of us can't even beat her!" Fen Shi Gui said, somewhat dejected.

These three people were none other than the "Three Corpse Eaters" being pursued by Wang Chao.

As they walked and talked, they suddenly noticed a strange man sitting on a large rock not far ahead. The three of them instinctively stopped.

"Look at that man, what is he doing?" Bapi Gui pointed forward.

When they saw clearly, all three were horrified.

It was a bare-chested, muscular man. In the fading light of the sunset, they could see a "Kuang" character carved on his chest.

However, what shocked the Three Corpse Eaters was not his appearance, but the fact that he was holding a snake as thick as a wrist in his hand.

This was not unusual, but what the man did next was terrifying.

Without any regard for the snake's resistance, the man opened his mouth and bit into the snake's body, tearing off large chunks of flesh with each bite and swallowing them without chewing.

In just a moment, the snake that had been struggling was completely eaten.

If it weren't for the snake's blood still hanging from his mouth, it would be hard to believe what had just happened.

Although the Three Corpse Eaters were ruthless killers, they were also intimidated by this savage eating method. Almost instinctively, they hid behind a pile of rocks.

"What a terrifying person!"

The three of them exchanged glances and decided to stay away from this monster.

But at that moment, the man started walking towards their hiding place, his footsteps getting closer.

"That monster is coming!"

Holding their breath, the Three Corpse Eaters didn't even dare to breathe, their bodies trembling uncontrollably.

"What a terrifying aura!"

Cold sweat trickled down their faces. Just as the footsteps were about to reach them, a loud explosion broke the tense atmosphere.

"Boom!"

A huge fireball descended from the sky.

The Three Corpse Eaters, not knowing what was happening, cautiously peeked out. They saw a woman in a bright red dress standing about twenty meters away.

"Finally, I've found you!" Liu Hong's face was agitated, her chest heaving.

She had been using the Netherworld Perception all afternoon and finally found this man.

The man, who looked like a monster, did not speak. He just turned and looked at Liu Hong with a cold, unfamiliar gaze.

"Today, I will avenge my fallen brothers!"

Without any movement, a scorching flame appeared out of nowhere and shot towards the man.

The temperature around them soared instantly, and the green grass was set ablaze, the fire spreading across the area.

Kuang Nu did not retreat but advanced, his inner energy bursting out, and he charged straight towards the scorching flame.

It was unclear what kind of energy he was using, but the flames could not touch him.

"Boom!"

With just his bare hands, Kuang Nu forcefully dispersed the flames within a five-meter radius around him. He moved as fast as a meteor, reaching Liu Hong in an instant.

Another punch sent a powerful gust of air that made the flames around Liu Hong flicker violently.

"Flame Shield!"

With a cry, a shield of flames appeared out of nowhere, blocking the man's punch.

"Boom!"

Flames shot out in all directions, and the fire shield weakened.

The chains wrapped around Kuang Nu's arms turned red, and the heat seemed to have no effect on him. He swung another punch without hesitation.

"Boom!"

The fire shield was shattered and transformed into several giant fire axes that chopped at Kuang Nu.

Liu Hong took the opportunity to increase the distance between them and used another powerful move.

"Flame Lotus Slash!"

High above, a giant lotus made of flames bloomed, and its petals turned into countless giant fire blades that rained down.

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh~"

A fire blade struck the large rock where Kuang Nu had been sitting, cutting it in half without a sound.

Wang Chao crouched in a patch of weeds, watching the battle from a distance. Her beautiful eyes grew increasingly intense as the battle heated up.

"What an intense battle. I never expected that woman to be a fire-element melee mage."

Seeing the woman control the flames as if they were part of her body, Wang Chao felt a sense of admiration.

She knew that even in the Iron Qin Empire, melee mages were rare, let alone one who could control flames so perfectly!

"That man is even more terrifying. Oh my God, what is his body made of? He doesn't even fear those flames?"

Her gaze shifted to the man dealing with the fire blades, and her face was full of shock.

At the same time, another person was just as excited by the intense battle, hidden in a tree—Dong Fangxiuzhe.

"Teacher Liu Hong is indeed terrifying when she gets angry. No wonder many children are afraid of her!"

His gaze shifted to the man who was getting stronger as the battle continued, and Dong Fangxiuzhe couldn't help but frown.

"What a monster!"
