Chapter 431: Passing the Buck
The voice of the Night Mouse suddenly rang out.
Fang Zhou looked in the direction of the voice and found him standing on the other side of the pit bottom.
The deep pit at the bottom of this square did not appear out of thin air, but is part of a network of underground tunnels, with collapsed pit edges around it, leading into pitch-black entrances, their depths unknown.
The Night Mouse now stood outside one of these entrances, waving at Fang Zhou.
However, this silt monster was convinced that Fang Zhou was the murderer of the beloved crow. It raised its arm high and slapped down at Fang Zhou again.
Fang Zhou instructed Bi An to fly around the silt monster towards the Night Mouse, while he stayed in place, leaping side to side, searching for a gap to evade.
The silt monster’s slap hit the ground, creating a violent tremor with a clear handprint.
Fang Zhou jumped out from between the fingers of the silt monster’s hand, landed on its back, and raised his hand to shoot an invisible Sword Qi at the silt monster’s head.
The invisible Sword Qi shot into the mouth on the silt monster’s head, breaking one of its teeth.
This counterattack could barely be considered better than nothing, but it expressed Fang Zhou’s indomitable will.
However, the silt monster seemed to be enraged by Fang Zhou, bowing its head to unleash a furious roar at him.
Its palm, which was originally facing down, instantly turned upward, and its hand back became the palm, gripping Fang Zhou standing on it, wrapping him completely in silt.
