World’s Best Martial Artist

438 Caught

The Hedgehog beast’s shrill howls continued to ring out.

The Chi was devouring the other party’s imperishable substance.

Huang Jing, who was at the side, was extremely vigilant. Seeing this, he suddenly put away his short sword, then used the flight step to escape!

Without the divine weapon’s suppression, the Hedgehog beast began its final struggle.

Yi’s eyes were filled with anger!

However, at this moment, it was too late to chase after the other party. Compared to Huang Jing, devouring The Guardian was more important.

However, the other party was also an important part of its plan to deal with the forbidden land. It was fine if the person left, since Hope City had no connection to the forbidden land. However, it could not take the short sword with the dumb Wood’s aura with it!

He hadn’t even used his sword to cut himself!

As the Jiao devoured madly, its huge eyes glared at the fleeing Huang Jing, and it became even more furious.

If it left just like that, what would it do?

However, The Guardian wasn’t completely dead yet. If they didn’t kill him now, they would be finished once the forbidden area found out.

Huang Jing ran further and further away, and the taxi was getting anxious.

Did he really have to go to monster Wood City for a battle? but even if he went, he might not be able to come back.

They wanted to chase after it, but The Guardian was still struggling. Large amounts of imperishable substance were spreading out to recover itself.

A hint of anger appeared in Richard’s eyes. It no longer paid attention to Huang Jing and began to focus on devouring.

He would devour The Guardian first, then find this guy.

Even if they couldn’t find him … There was still a familiar guy at the entrance to the forbidden area!

If she found him, she might be able to find the guy who had escaped.

The Jiao did not look at Huang Jing again and continued to devour.

After a short moment, the Hedgehog beast’s struggle became powerless.

After a while, the Hedgehog beast stopped moving.

The Golden inextinguishable radiance also gradually dissipated, but the demonic beast’s corpse remained.

The Jiao did not waste it this time. It swallowed everything in one gulp, including the flesh, blood, and bones.

In the end, all that was left was a broken golden skull.

The broken wound on the skull was caused by the short sword, and it carried a strong demonic wood aura.

The referee slapped the broken golden skull into the ground. At this moment, Huang Jing’s figure had completely disappeared.

Jiao’s eyes revealed a pensive look. The other party had run for so long that it might not be able to catch up.

In the distance, there was also some movement in the forbidden area. Once another battle broke out, it might attract the king of the forbidden area.

Suddenly thinking of something, Yi quickly flew in the direction of Hedgehog Ridge.

……

The Hedgehog Ridge.

The deathly silence was still unsettling.

At the bottom of the mountain, Fang ping moved carefully. He did not feel any mentality scan.

At this time, Fang ping did not dare to stick his head out to check on the situation. He began to dig carefully. After digging for a while, Fang ping gritted his teeth. It was so quiet, and the digging sound was very loud. He might as well just get out and sneak away.

Thinking of this, Fang ping did not continue digging. Instead, he walked back. After walking for a while, Fang Ping’s expression changed. The pit in front of him had collapsed!

This was not the main point!

The main point was … He seemed to have seen something!

“That’s a demonic beast?”

“No, no, no… Such a huge body, but it doesn’t have any aura at all … What kind of demonic beast is this?”

Fang ping only caught a glimpse of it. He did not dare to look closely and hid it beside the collapsed pit.

However, he did see a demonic beast crouching outside the pit!

There were no signs of life!

“What’s going on?”

Fang ping was at a loss. Why was there another corpse of a monster beast outside?

The size of a demonic beast was usually related to its strength. This demonic beast’s size was not smaller than the Hedgehog beast from before, didn’t that mean …

“Also high-ranked?”

“Dead?”

Fang ping was on tenterhooks. He began to probe carefully. Very quickly, Fang ping confirmed that he was indeed dead!

“Another high-ranked monster’s corpse. What day is it today?”

“Who killed him?”

“That’s right … The demonic beast that looked like kun earlier seemed to have a demonic beast following it. Could it be this one?”

“Could it be … The Jiao killed it?”

Fang ping felt like his brain was about to turn into mush!

What the hell was going on?

Today, the unexpected kept happening, and he was almost dumbfounded.

First, there was a rank-8 monster in Hedgehog Ridge. Then, they seemed to see the Jiao hundreds of miles away. Then, they suddenly realized that the monster that had followed the Jiao had died. Where did the Jiao go?

Had the Jiao killed this demonic beast?

However, they seemed to be in the same group earlier. Why did they suddenly have an internal conflict?

“I feel like I’m not smart enough!”

“Do I need to go out? Did Jiao leave?”

Fang ping was caught in a struggle. He was really confused now.

A moment later, Fang ping gritted his teeth. The benefits were right in front of him. He would be a fool not to take them.

It was very difficult to kill a rank-7 demonic beast. He was now very clear that even rank-8 and 9 powerhouses might not be able to do it easily.

It wasn’t that he couldn’t kill them, but if he did, how would he keep his corpse intact?

To prevent the other party from self-destructing?

How could they not attract the attention of stronger people?

These were all difficult points.

Thinking of this, Fang ping carefully walked out of the collapsed passageway.

When he saw the monster covered in injuries in front of him, Fang ping frowned slightly. Were his heart and brain cores still there?

Also, this demonic beast wasn’t small, so it wouldn’t be easy to take it away.

It would be very difficult to expand the storage space now.

The key was that he had no money!

The system had yet to calculate his wealth points. Previously, in order to expand the space, he had already spent 13 billion wealth points. Now, he was left with less than 4 billion wealth points.

Even if he expanded it further, he wouldn’t be able to expand it to 8 cubic meters even if he spent all of it. It wouldn’t be able to fit.

“What a pity. It seems like I can only dig up some useful things and bring them back.”

Fang ping felt a little regretful, but he was also extremely vigilant.

The system didn’t increase his wealth. What was this?

He was not out of danger!

Now, he had to be extremely careful.

Fang ping took a light breath and walked carefully toward the monsters in front of him. He looked around. Hedgehog Ridge was extremely quiet at the moment, and it was a little scary.

“I don’t care anymore, I’ll dig out the heart and brain cores first!”

Very quickly, Fang ping took the shovel and walked forward, preparing to dissect the dead monster.

However, just as he was about to move the shovel, Fang Ping’s expression changed drastically!

F * ck, he’s actually back!

At this moment, a golden light was rapidly approaching.

Fang ping did not dare to hesitate. He hurriedly burrowed underground. He was dumbfounded. Didn’t they leave? Why did he come back?

Not long after Fang ping had burrowed underground, the Jiao’s figure landed.

The huge eye looked around.

Then, Richard’s nose started to Twitch, trying to distinguish the smell.

That chef’s strength was average, and he couldn’t have run far.

However … The fact that he was unable to sense the exact location of the other party surprised the referee.

Very quickly, the Jiao sniffed at the hole Fang ping had just dug out. The aura here seemed to be stronger.

Richard’s paw slammed down, and the entire ground collapsed.

The Hedgehog Ridge was still silent. The collapsed ground revealed some underground holes.

Richard continued to smell and hit the ground as it sniffed. One tunnel after another collapsed and split open.

Not far away, at the foot of the mountain, Fang Ping’s face had turned green.

What was he doing?

Was he going to search the entire mountain to find him?

He had blown up gigantic Willow City, and the powerful people of gigantic Willow City were chasing after him. But they had not gone to this extent, had they?

What kind of deep hatred did he have with that Yong that it had to do this?

Under normal circumstances, even if a demonic beast killed someone, as long as you didn’t ransack its home or take away its treasures, the demonic beast wouldn’t pursue you if you couldn’t find it.

Just like the previous few times, when he ran away, the Holy See didn’t chase after him. There was no need to.

But what happened today?

Was it because he had run away twice and completely angered the other party? Must kill me?

Or was it unhappy that he had brought a rank-7 to it last time?

As he watched the other party smacking forward along the underground passage, Fang ping felt that if this went on, he would definitely be caught. Then, he would be done for.

At this moment, Fang ping could not care about anything else. The situation at Hedgehog Ridge was not right. It was too quiet!

There weren’t even any roars from the demonic beasts. It was as if the entire mountain had lost its life. If this continued, it would be very difficult for him to escape from the pursuit.

Fang ping gritted his teeth, took out the shovel, and continued digging forward. There was a faint sound, but there was nothing he could do.

At this moment, Fang ping had already used his mentality to cover the surrounding area with a barrier. The sound was actually not very loud, and it might not be able to travel out. The only thing he was afraid of was … That the Jiao would notice the faint vibration.

Fortunately, the other party was still smacking the ground, and the sound of the collapse covered up the earthquake-like feeling he had while digging.

Fang ping dug quickly. After digging for a while, he began to change to another path and continued digging.

“Ever since I learned how to dig tunnels, I’ve been doing this …”

There was an unspeakable sorrow in Fang Ping’s heart. He had really become an expert in digging.

The last time he was in Nanjiang, he started to dig a hole for the first time.

Now, as she dug, it had become a habit.

He was quite experienced now. He even knew where a water source might appear and where a collapse might happen. In terms of geology, Fang ping felt that he could barely be a half-baked expert.

“The sense of direction on the ground is weak, and there are no landmarks, so it’s easy to get lost. But underground, I feel that my sense of direction is very strong. What the hell!”

Fang ping kept grumbling in his heart, but he also prayed that Jiao would stop.

Are you free?

Why did a rank-8 monster beast have to go against him?

If you have so much free time, go find a rank-8 monster and kill it!

Fang ping was dissatisfied, and so was the Jiao.

Where did he go?

He had clearly sensed that it was nearby, but the ground was about to collapse. If this continued and he attracted the attention of the forbidden land, it would be too late for another emissary to come!

It had to find the guy who had run away as soon as possible and let him cut it with the short sword.

The referee was a little anxious. He seemed to have thought of something and suddenly stopped slapping.

As soon as it stopped, the ground in the distance trembled slightly, and it quickly stopped.

Yi’s big eyes revealed a mocking look. As expected, it was nearby.

In the next second, the Jiao appeared in the sky above the land and slapped down with its palm!

A small pit appeared below, and there was no one there!

The referee was completely enraged. He had disappeared again!

After a while of crazy destruction, the surroundings collapsed.

Chi seemed to have thought of something again, and suddenly stopped its destruction. On the giant Golden Horn, traces of blood-colored qi and blood energy were constantly being stripped away.

It was still prepared for a chef who liked to run away.

In the next moment, a weak strand of vitality force was suspended in the air.

This wisp of qi and blood seemed to have come to life. It swayed slightly in the air and then began to float forward.

……

Underground.

Fang Ping’s heart was thumping. He suspected that he had dug up Jiao’s ancestral grave the last time. Otherwise, why would he keep searching?

If it were him, if he had encountered a rank-3 catacombs martial artist, and the other party had run away or hidden away, he would not have continued to pursue.

With that effort, he could kill a few rank-4 and 5 martial artists.

High-ranked monsters would rarely do such things!

Why were all the demonic beasts he had encountered so unreliable?

“Don’t look for me! Why did you have to find me?”

Fang ping wanted to cry but had no tears. Huang Jing had also disappeared. He still did not know what the situation was. Otherwise, someone could attract the Jiao’s attention and he could find an opportunity to leave.

Now, he seemed to be the only living person in the vast Hedgehog Ridge. It was difficult to escape.

Just as Fang ping was embedding himself in a small hole like a stone, suddenly, Fang Ping’s eyes moved.

“What is this?”

He saw a faint blood-colored thing seeping out of the soil and drilling into his body!

“What the hell is this?”

Fang Ping’s expression changed. When the blood-colored thread entered his body, Fang Ping’s expression changed drastically!

Vitality force!

A familiar vitality force!

“My own vitality force!”

Just as Fang ping had this thought, his eyes suddenly lit up. The soil above him had been lifted!

A huge golden head was facing him.

Fang Ping’s face was deathly pale. He laughed dryly and said,”King Jiao, long time no see!”

This Zheng had really gone crazy!

It actually still retained its own vitality!

This was completely out of Fang Ping’s expectations!

Yi’s big eyes looked at him, revealing a hint of ridicule.

Fang ping gulped and crawled up from the ground. He laughed dryly.”King Jiao, are you hungry? Do you want to eat?”

Richard didn’t respond. It wasn’t in the mood to eat.

In the next moment, Fang ping floated up and was quickly led to the dead monster.

The Jiao looked at the monster, then at Fang ping. Fang ping did not quite understand. He whispered,”Your Majesty wants me to accept these gifts?”

Just as he finished speaking, Yi’s giant Golden Claw came down!

Fang ping was smacked into the ground, his face flushed red. ‘Damn it, you brought me here all of a sudden. How would I know what you’re up to?

It seemed that he was not giving her a gift?

The Jiao smacked him with its paw. Then, a long, broken spike floated in front of him. Fang ping recognized it. It was the long spike from the Hedgehog beast.

More importantly, was he going to show him this?

Seeing that he still didn’t understand, the Jiao waved its claw to cut off the long thorn. It then looked into the distance and thought for a moment. Suddenly, a short sword appeared out of thin air in front of it. It conjured its psyche, and the moment the short sword appeared, a not-so-obvious figure appeared.

Fang ping stared at it for a while. Was this considered understanding the content by looking at the picture?

“Someone killed the Hedgehog beast with a short sword. You want a short sword?”

Fang ping had actually guessed that it was Huang Jing, even though the Jiao had only given him a Phantom image.

Seeing that the referee was staring at him, Fang ping said drily,”This … This … I do know this person, but I’m not close to him …”

“What? You’re going to eat me if you can’t find me? Don’t …”

Fang Ping’s mind was filled with thoughts. Should he bring Jiao to Huang Jing?

But what was Jiao trying to do?

He wanted to swallow Huang Jing?

No, it wanted a short sword. A short sword … A divine weapon?

It wanted a divine weapon?

Seeing that the Jiao was scratching its body with its claws again, Fang ping asked suspiciously,”My King, are you going to stab yourself with a short sword?”

“……”

“That … Do you want me to give you a few strokes with my saber?”

Seeing that the Jiao was about to explode in anger, Fang ping quickly shut his mouth, but his mind was spinning.

What did Jiao want to do?

Let Huang Jing stab it with a short sword?

Was he tired of living?

Even though he could not understand, Fang ping still laughed.”My King, how about this? I’ll go find someone, and once I find them, I’ll bring back a short sword and give you a few hits.”

He did not dare to bring the other party to Huang Jing.

What if he killed Huang Jing?

Besides, he still did not know how Huang Jing was doing.

“Right, the principal is currently being chased by a demon beast. Should we … Lure the referee over?”

Fang ping could not help but have such a thought. In the end, before he could finish his thought, the Jiao was already smacking the ground impatiently.

The next moment, Fang ping rose into the air. The Jiao carried him and chased in the direction Huang Jing had escaped in!

“Are you going to find the principal? What does it want?”

As he thought of this, Fang ping looked down at the corpses of the monsters that were gradually getting further and further away. He was a little unwilling. ‘You should at least let me dig out your heart and brain cores and take them away!’

It would be such a waste to provide support!

It was as if Fang Ping’s gaze was too intense. The Jiao growled in a low voice, with a warning tone.

Fang ping guessed,”can’t move?” King Jiao, did you kill him? Why aren’t you eating?”

“……”

“Can’t be eaten? You have to keep it, right?”

“……”

Fang ping guessed again and again. After the Jiao carried him for a distance, Fang ping suddenly thought of something … I don’t think I’m wearing any clothes!

But at this moment, the sky was dark. No one should see him, right?

The Jiao wanted Huang Jing to use the short sword divine weapon to stab it, but it left the demonic beast’s corpse unmoving. The demonic beasts of Hedgehog Ridge had all disappeared. Could they have been killed by the demons to silence them?

“This guy isn’t trying to make old yellow take the blame for him, is he?”

Fang ping felt that this operation was somewhat familiar.”There might be some evidence left on the dead monster’s body … Evidence related to old yellow, which is why Jiao did not touch the body … The long spikes from before … The aura of a divine weapon. Could it be that the dead monster still had the aura of a divine weapon?”

“Richard was in cahoots with that guy. He suddenly had an internal conflict and killed the other party, then wanted to frame old Huang.”

“But it’s worried that others won’t believe it … Or that other demons won’t believe it, so it wants old yellow to give it a few slashes to leave behind the aura of the divine weapon?”

“Who do you need to trust?”

“Could it be that the demonic beasts also have an organization?”

“No, no, the point is … This demonic beast seems to be F * cking cunning. It actually wants me to take the blame!”

While Fang ping was still thinking, the next moment, a scene that made him break down happened!

A dazzling golden light shone on his body!

In the pitch-black night, the Golden Fang ping was especially dazzling … Most importantly, he was not wearing any clothes!

Fang ping was sure that if there were people around, they would definitely be able to see him!

“I’m going to kill you!”

Fang ping roared in his heart. This Jiao had gone mad. It had actually thought of this method to make him appear and attract Huang Jing!

This was simply trampling on his dignity!

Fang ping was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood. A golden light rose from his head and covered his face. Rays of golden light also rose from his lower body, making it impossible for others to see his brothers.

It was too embarrassing!

“I’ll remember this! Just wait! I’ll kill you sooner or later!”

Fang ping was half-dead from anger, but confusion flashed across the Jiao’s large eyes. This was the indestructible body?

Regardless of whether Fang ping was angry or not, the spinal cord guided Fang ping to fly around randomly. The Golden Fang ping was like a dazzling light in midair.

And this move was indeed effective.

In the distance, Huang Jing, who was hiding in a forest to recover from his injuries, saw the dazzling golden light, and his expression changed again and again!

Fang ping had been caught!

He didn’t expect that the Yong would think of using hostages to threaten him!

At this moment, he had not returned to Hope City. Fang ping and Qin Fengqing were still at Hedgehog Ridge. The two high-ranked monsters at Hedgehog Ridge were dead. He was prepared to wait for shroud to leave before he went to look for them.

Unexpectedly, not only did the referee not leave, but he also took the initiative to find her.

What was this Zheng trying to do?

Huang Jing’s expression darkened. Should he show himself?

He was definitely not Yi’s match, especially since Yi had devoured a rank-8 beast. He was probably even more terrifying than before.

Once he showed himself, he would be in danger.

However, if Fang ping was caught and he did not show himself, and Fang ping was killed …

Huang Jing’s expression showed that he was struggling. Martial artists would not compromise!

Even if word got out that Fang ping had been killed by Jiao, no one would think that he had done anything wrong. Using his life as a rank-7 to bet on whether Jiao would let Fang ping go was a chance that he could almost give up and not gamble on.

Was he really going to watch Fang ping get killed?

Just as Huang Jing was suppressing his aura and hiding carefully, struggling internally, in midair, Fang ping suddenly shouted in the catacombs language,””If you’re here, leave your sword for use. You don’t need to come out!”

Huang Jing’s expression changed again and again. Sword?

Did Yi come for the divine weapon?

The probability of Fang Ping’s survival in exchange for a divine weapon … This …

If Fang ping could survive, Wu kuishan might not have any objections if they were to exchange. After all, Fang ping might have the hope of advancing to rank-9.

However, what if both the man and the sword missed?

Huang Jing suddenly sighed softly. ‘Forget it. Now that things have come to this, I can only take a gamble.’

At this point, if they did not think of a way and Fang ping was really killed, it would be difficult to explain to li Changsheng and Lu fengrou.

A short sword appeared in his hand.

A look of worry flashed across Huang Jing’s eyes. He then threw his short sword away and left quickly.

If he lost his sword, it wouldn’t be worth it if he lost himself as well.

In the next moment, Huang Jing, who had been a few miles away from his original spot, quickly hid himself. The short sword that he had left behind on the spot burst out with a faint golden light.

In the sky, a golden light flashed and quickly fell.

As for Fang ping, the moment he landed, he ran toward the golden light. The divine weapon could not be snatched away by the Jiao. Didn’t it only need to slash it a few times?

This demonic beast wouldn’t go back on its word and try to snatch it away, right?

The Jiao, on the other hand, did not move. It only landed on the ground and stood still, allowing Fang ping to pick up the short sword in front of it.

Richard’s huge eyes looked at the short sword, carefully sensing the aura coming from the short sword.

It was indeed the aura of silly wood!

It was very strong!

The referee seemed to have thought of something. This sword … Was the one that had broken into monster Wood City!

No wonder!
