Chapter 360: Pure Yang (II)
Swish, swish.
Lin Zheyu swung Ke Haolin's blade a few times and found it fairly suitable. Although he had not used a blade in a long time, he did not feel the slightest bit rusty. When facing the foul-smelling demon puppets, he had no intention of using his fists. The sticky purplish-brown fluid that splattered from them was too disgusting once it stained the body. It took a long time to wash off the odor each time. Lin Zheyu intended to use the saber directly and sever the demon puppets' heads. Against creatures without reason that fought purely on instinct, his modest saber technique was already more than sufficient.
Bang!
After adjusting to the long saber in his hand, Lin Zheyu stomped his right foot and shot forward like a cannonball. In the mountain forest, beneath the bright moonlight filtering through the gaps in the leaves, he seemed to transform into a true phantom, weaving back and forth among the demon puppets. He was incredibly fast. Before the demon puppets could react, a silver-white saber light swept past. Their ferocious faces had not even registered what had happened before their heads thudded onto the ground.
Saber light flashed like lightning through the mountain forest. Each roaring demon puppet, at the instant its body lunged forward, had its head thud onto the ground. After a little over two minutes, Lin Zheyu returned to the second defensive line. From the long saber in his hand, purplish-brown viscous liquid dripped slowly.
"Rest for a while. A big one may appear later," Lin Zheyu said softly.
Gulp. Gulp.
The sound of people swallowing rang out. Only after hearing Lin Zheyu's voice did everyone come back to their senses. They looked at the ground littered with demon puppet corpses and could not help drawing in a sharp breath, and then caught the heavy stench in the air.
"So strong! Is this the power of someone ranked fifty-third on the Hidden Dragon List?" someone murmured softly.
When Lin Zheyu had captured that peak Marrow Refining realm demon puppet alive earlier, they had not witnessed it personally. Although they had been shocked at the time, it did not compare to the shock of seeing him act with their own eyes now.
"Do not stand there in a daze. Rest quickly. You have fought for so long, and your blood qi is heavily depleted. Take some Essence and Qi Pills to recover," Lin Zheyu said calmly as he swept his gaze around.
He lifted his head and looked through the gaps at the distant sky. His heart sank slightly. The Baleful Yin force in the air had grown denser again. Lin Zheyu felt a sense of oppressive tension, as if a storm were about to break.
