In the cave, Chen An was frantically throwing the flammable powder in his storage bag.

In just a moment, the cramped cave was filled with various medicinal powders, forming clouds of dust.

Boss Zhu, who was walking in from outside with a sword in hand, saw the medicinal powder spreading in front of him. He showed no fear on his face and went straight in.

He knew that Chen An was an alchemist. When he decided to pursue Chen An personally, he had already taken a detoxifying pill that was immune to all poisons.

The Detoxification Pill is a second-level advanced pill that can provide immunity to any poison that is not third-level or above.

And Chen An was only a second-level alchemist, so it was obviously impossible for him to possess a third-level poison.

"Although this person cannot fly with a sword, his running speed is extremely fast."

Boss Zhu used his spiritual sense to sense and found that Chen An was constantly distancing himself from him, and he couldn't help feeling a little surprised.

Chen An's strength is really strange. He doesn't know any magic, but his physical strength is different from that of ordinary cultivators. He gives people the feeling that he is a warrior who can use spiritual power but not magic.

"No matter how strong your body is, it's useless if you don't know magic."

Boss Zhu chuckled.

He then used the earth escape technique to merge into the ground and approached Chen An at an extremely astonishing speed.

In front, Chen An was still constantly throwing various flammable powders.

At this moment, he suddenly sensed that there was a high-energy body approaching him at a high speed from underground behind him, and his face changed.

It’s Boss Zhu who’s chasing us!

It's the earth escape technique!

Chen An realized this and immediately stopped throwing the flammable powder in his hand. He took out all the bottles containing powder and threw them on the ground, then sprinted forward with all his strength to create distance between himself and Gang Leader Zhu.

Unfortunately, legs and feet are no match for magic.

Before he could run a few steps, the next second, Boss Zhu appeared from the ground in front of him, holding a long sword, and said jokingly:

"Master Chen, keep running. Let's see whether your legs are faster or my earth escape is faster."

“…”

Chen An did not respond, he just turned around and ran towards the cave entrance.

Looking at his rapidly receding back, Gang Leader Zhu couldn't help but smile.

"Master Chen, run, run quickly."

“Cherish the little time you have left.”

"I'll let you run to the cave entrance first, then I'll burrow through the cave and cut off your legs with my sword. I'll let you experience what despair is like."

Gang Leader Zhu, holding a long sword, walked slowly towards the cave entrance, allowing Chen An to distance himself from him.

He prefers to be cautious when he is not sure of his opponent's strength.

However, when he knows that his opponent is far weaker than himself, he prefers to play cat and mouse, torturing his opponent both physically and mentally and making him feel desperate.

A few breaths of time passed.

Feeling that Chen An was about to run out of the cave, Gang Leader Zhu suddenly had an idea and used the earth escape technique again to dive into the ground.

He had to catch up with Chen An in an instant.

Cut off his legs.

It made him completely desperate.

However, just after escaping underground, Boss Zhu suddenly felt that the air flow in front of him was rapidly heating up and expanding.

I didn't even have time to react to what was happening.

The next moment, there was a loud "boom!"

An extremely terrifying impact force suddenly erupted from the cave.

The entire cave was instantly filled with flames.

The earth is collapsing and the rocks are breaking.

"this……"

Boss Zhu let out an extremely terrified cry, but unfortunately he could only utter one word before he was instantly engulfed by a horrifying sea of ​​fire.

…

On the other side, at the cave entrance.

In order to be on the safe side, Chen An threw a wisp of fire behind him before he ran out of the cave, detonating the dust cloud in the cave.

The powerful impact force generated by the explosion of the dust cloud directly shook him and his soul out of the cave. He rolled for dozens of meters outside the cave until he hit the trunk of a towering tree and stopped.

“Boom——!”

Suddenly, two deafening explosions were heard in the cave behind him.

The whole earth was shaking.

The cave, which originally looked extremely solid, has now collapsed and turned into a pile of ruins.

Flames and white smoke continued to rise among the ruins.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Chen An knew that his act of taking out all the medicine bottles and throwing them on the ground had done merit, providing the conditions for multiple dust explosions.

"I don't know if Boss Zhu is still alive."

"It doesn't matter whether I live or die."

"The most urgent thing is to reunite with my wife and daughter as soon as possible."

For a moment, Chen An had the idea of ​​getting closer to the ruins to see if Boss Zhu was dead and whether he could touch his body. However, this idea was dismissed within less than a second.

There is really no need to take this risk.

If Gang Leader Zhu wasn't killed in the explosion, or wasn't even seriously injured, then he would be courting death if he approached them.

It would be better to quickly find your wife and daughters and run away together.

“Cough…cough cough!”

Chen An was about to leave when he suddenly heard a few dying coughs from the ruins.

He turned around when he heard the sound and saw that Boss Zhu, who had been so high-spirited before, was now lying on the top of the ruins with his limbs broken and charred. His face was lifeless and the vitality in his body was constantly draining away.

It was hit by the dust bomb, but was not completely killed. It escaped using the earth escape technique while dying.

When Boss Zhu saw Chen An, who was almost intact in front of him, he realized that everything that had just happened in the cave was caused by him, and asked with his dying breath:

"You, what kind of magic is that..."

“…Swish!”

Chen An did not give Boss Zhu a chance to finish his question. He stepped forward and beheaded him with a sword, ending his life easily.

Then he quickly took out the storage bag from his body, stuffed it into his arms, and left to meet his wife and daughter.

Not long.

Chen An successfully found his wife and daughter.

When Song Huaying saw him, she rushed forward with tears of joy, her tears streaming down her face uncontrollably. She cried, "Husband, I'm so scared. I'm really scared that I won't be able to see you again. Woo woo woo..."

"Don't cry, Ying'er. Isn't your husband back safely?"

Chen An spoke in a gentle voice while stroking Song Huaying's head.

Gu Xinyue saw Chen An's charred back and immediately went around to check behind him. She asked worriedly, "Husband, why is there a black patch on your back? Does it hurt?"

"Don't worry, Yue'er, my husband's back is just a little burnt, it will heal quickly."

"Husband, this won't work. Please give me the healing powder and I will help you apply the medicine."

"There is no recovery powder left. Almost all the pills are gone. My husband used them to kill someone just now."

"ah?"

Gu Xinyue was a little confused after listening to this.

At this time, Wen Zhiyun came up and asked, "Husband, what's the situation now?"

Chen An said calmly, "There shouldn't be any danger for now. The leader of the Bamboo Leaf Gang, his five elders, and several deacons were all taken care of by my husband alone. From today on, the Bamboo Leaf Gang is probably dead in name only."

"this……"

Upon hearing the news, the three wives and concubines looked at Chen An in shock, their faces full of disbelief.

Chen An didn't explain too much to them, but said to them: "Let's go, let's go back to the deep woods where we were before. On the way out of the bamboo forest, let's save Fellow Daoist Shen and do him a favor."

"Okay, I'll listen to you, my husband."

After a few brief exchanges, the family of five set off again into the depths of the woods.
