Chapter 299: Startled Dragon
Feng Yu watched in shock as Zhang Huaigu was killed by Chen Qing's single punch in the blink of an eye, unable to even activate his life-saving divine ability before being obliterated. His soul nearly flew from his body in terror.
Already cunning and valuing his life above all else, how could he dare linger here any longer?
After exchanging a single water wave sword strike with Ruan Lingxiu, he borrowed the force of her sword's recoiling momentum. His fat body displayed an agility completely at odds with his physique as his toes fiercely pushed off the slippery reef!
"Swish!"
The seemingly ordinary brocade boots on his feet suddenly lit up, and a rich earth elemental qi erupted, making him shoot forward close to the ground like a rolling stone.
Rather than leaping in a straight line, he used a bizarre movement technique similar to "gecko crawling on walls," winding and darting along the uneven surface of the reefs while staying close to them. His speed was extraordinary!
Wherever he passed, he left only a faint earthy yellow afterimage on the cold reefs and barely audible friction sounds. He even deliberately suppressed the sound of breaking through air, clearly employing an extremely sophisticated earth-burrowing concealment technique.
He abandoned his allies without hesitation, wanting only to escape this killing field at maximum speed. After several flashes, his form disappeared into the denser black fog in the distance, vanishing from sight.
Ruan Lingxiu drove back Feng Yu with a single sword strike. Seeing him flee, she didn't pursue.
