Bloodshadow Man cast a suspicious glance at Chen Li, then looked back at the hedgehog that was still baring its teeth at him, his confusion deepening.
This kid's cultivation level was indeed low, and he didn't seem capable of controlling such a beastman. Could it really be an accident?
Despite his lingering doubts, the intense pain in his palm made it hard for him to think straight; he just wanted to quickly deal with this suddenly appearing monster. Especially since, although the hedgehog-like beast seemed inconspicuous, its barbed quills were strangely effective, able to pierce through his protective Demonic Energy.
That was not something an ordinary beast could achieve.
Hmph! This time I misjudged you! Bloodshadow Man glared fiercely at Chen Li, keeping a wary eye on the suddenly appeared beast, but there was no trace of it to be found.
At that moment, Chen Li immediately presented a pill with a flattering smile: "Senior, please take this pill to heal your wounds! This is the Imperial Academy's holy medicine for healing; its effects are remarkable!"
Bloodshadow Man took the pill, and the last shred of doubt in his heart vanished. If this kid really wanted to harm him, he wouldn't be so attentive.
He swallowed the pill in one gulp, and a warm current instantly flowed through his body, quickly alleviating the pain in his palm.
Hmm, the medicine works well. Bloodshadow Man nodded in satisfaction, his gaze toward Chen Li softening a bit. "Kid, I misjudged you this time. You're Chen Ming, right? Follow me from now on, and I'll ensure you enjoy endless glory and wealth!"
Chen Li sneered inwardly but feigned surprise on his face: "Thank you for your support, Senior! I am deeply grateful!"
He stole a glance at the distant forest, silently urging: Hedgehog, you better not let me down!
As if in response to his thoughts, a sharp beam of sword light suddenly shot out from the nearby woods, aimed directly at Bloodshadow Man's back!
Caught off guard, Bloodshadow Man instinctively activated his technique just in time to evade the fatal strike. However, he still felt the sword energy graze his arm, blood instantly staining his sleeve red.
Who is it?! Bloodshadow Man exclaimed in shock and anger as he scanned the forest with piercing eyes.
An aged figure slowly emerged from the trees, wielding a shimmering spirit sword that glinted coldly in the light. His hair and beard were white as snow, yet he appeared vigorous and full of life; hatred surged in his eyes as he emanated a fierce sword intent and murderous aura.
Bloodshadow Man! How unexpected!
Xuanjizi?!
Bloodshadow Man recognized the newcomer at once, his expression darkening significantly. "You’re still alive?!"
Xuanjizi's voice was icy as he replied with a face full of frostiness and eyes filled with deep-seated hatred. "Bloodshadow Man, today I will surely kill you to avenge Old Madam's humiliation!"
For many years, he had been tormented by the Blood Sacrifice Spider, living as neither man nor ghost. If it weren't for encountering Chen Li, this little rascal, he would have been finished. All of this was thanks to the Bloodshadow Man!
He dreamed of killing the Bloodshadow Man to erase the shadows left on his mind. Yet unexpectedly, the Bloodshadow Man appeared alone!
The Bloodshadow Man's gaze turned filled with resentment and confusion: "Not only are you alive, but your cultivation has improved? How is that possible? You were supposed to die from the Blood Sacrifice Spider!"
Xuanjizi let out a cold laugh: "You Blood Fiend Sect are still standing; how could Old Madam die? Today, Old Madam will take your life to commemorate those years of torment by the Blood Sacrifice Spider!"
Before his words faded, Xuanjizi's figure flashed and transformed into an afterimage, lunging toward the Bloodshadow Man. His spiritual sword moved like a venomous snake, exuding a chilling light, targeting the Bloodshadow Man's vital points with every strike.
Although the Bloodshadow Man had considerable cultivation, he found himself retreating repeatedly before Xuanjizi's enhanced power. "Damn old fool! I can defeat you once; I can defeat you again!"
With that, the Bloodshadow Man roared in anger as a blood-red long knife suddenly appeared in his hand, its blade swirling with thick blood energy. The blood energy danced and intertwined with sword intent, sweeping away the surrounding trees in an instant.
Chen Li hid nearby, watching the fierce battle between the two and letting out a heavy sigh of relief. The plan had succeeded! The rest was up to Senior Xuanjizi!
Shen Qingyue and Yue Shan also hid at a distance, watching intently as both felt a wave of anxiety for Chen Li. "Chen Li, did you bring this old man?" Yue Shan's eyes widened in disbelief, feeling as if she were dreaming. Just moments ago, Chen Li had been flattering the Bloodshadow Man while delivering medicine; how could he suddenly have brought help?
Chen Li chuckled softly but did not respond. Shen Qingyue finally relaxed completely. She knew her dear brother must have been hiding some tricks up his sleeve! Here it comes!
Before they quietly infiltrated, they had temporarily hidden Elder Xuanjizi outside.
"Chen Li, you deliberately made up a story to lure out the Bloodshadow Man!"
Yue Shan looked at the exchange of glances between the two siblings, his mind filled with questions. It seemed he appeared like a fool in front of them. How could he know nothing at all?
"Could one of you introduce this old man? He's so powerful!"
Chen Li watched Xuanjizi entangled with the Bloodshadow Man and couldn't help but laugh, "Elder, didn't you recognize him? He is an elder from the Imperial Academy's Dan Hall. It is said that he was once the most talented Alchemist in Dan Hall, but after being afflicted by the Bloodshadow Man and the Blood Sacrifice Spider, his cultivation plummeted, which is why he has been in hiding for many years."
"Is that really Elder Xuanjizi?" Yue Shan pointed at the elderly man fighting fiercely, his voice slightly distorted with shock, his jaw nearly dropping to the ground.
Chen Li nodded, wearing an expression that suggested Yue Shan should have known this. This made Yue Shan feel a bit irritated.
"You two have kept this well hidden!" Yue Shan sincerely gave Chen Li a thumbs up.
He realized that these two little ones were sharper than he had thought!
The three continued to watch the battle as Xuanjizi clashed with the Bloodshadow Man. The light of swords and blades intertwined, dust and debris flying everywhere, creating a grand spectacle.
Surrounding trees and plants were flattened, and the ground was riddled with ravines, charred black.
The Bloodshadow Man grew increasingly alarmed; he never expected that Xuanjizi, who should have been on the brink of death from his Blood Sacrifice Spider's torment, not only survived but had significantly improved in strength!
Damn it! How did this old man suddenly become so powerful?!
The Bloodshadow Man gritted his teeth as he swung his blood knife even more frantically, a sea of blood energy surging around him.
Although Xuanjizi held the upper hand, he did not dare to let his guard down; after all, the Bloodshadow Man was an elder of the Blood Fiend Sect, with unpredictable methods—who knew what other trump cards he had?
However, seeing that he could not break through after a prolonged assault, the Bloodshadow Man's expression grew darker.
Suddenly, he let out a howl towards the sky, forming seals with his hands and chanting: "With my blood, I summon the Demon Spider! Demon Spider, appear!"
