Chapter 51 How did you find out?
"Hahaha! Don't worry about them. They can't get far anyway. Just quickly take care of the guy in front of you and chase after him. That's it."
The skinny man found that Xu Ren'er and the others had run away, but he was not in a hurry. He spoke leisurely to the cheongsam man.
In his mind, the man in the cheongsam is almost the strongest person in the Marrow-sucking Country except for the High Priest. Almost no one in the entire Marrow-sucking Country can match him.
Thieves like these who don't know how to live or die, no matter how strong they are, can only make the cheongsam man spend more effort, and in the end the cheongsam man will easily take them down.
He couldn't see through the situation between Yu Hui and the cheongsam man, but the cheongsam man was fighting Yu Hui head-on.
He is very clear about the current situation.
He was sweating profusely, his heart filled with horror:
Who on earth was this person?! Why was he completely unable to see through the other party's offensive? In fact, he was almost completely suppressed.
Originally, he was full of disdain for Yu Hui, a middle-aged man who looked to be no more than 40 years old, and thought that he could easily defeat him. It was not until they officially fought that he realized that he might have been a little ignorant of his own limitations.
He has no chance of winning!
On the other hand, Tang Beiju was dissatisfied with the skinny man's distracted behavior during the battle.
The skinny man's main means of attack is his nails. The nails on his ten fingers are very long and extremely hard, which gives him an advantage in close combat.
On the contrary, Tang Beiju used a long sword and fought close to him, and was completely at a disadvantage.
However, this is only a disadvantage in weapons and does not hinder Tang Beiju's fighting in other aspects.
Taking advantage of the moment when the skinny man was distracted, Tang Beiju said nothing, his eyes deepened, he increased his speed and strength, swung his long arm, and the tip of the sword cut straight through the skinny man's chest, cutting off a piece of bone and picking it out separately.
Black?
When Tang Beiju saw the dark black ribs falling to the ground, he raised his eyelids slightly and felt a little surprised.
Can human bones be black?
For a moment, Tang Beiju fell into deep thought.
While Tang Beiju was thinking, the skinny man silently walked to the broken ribs that had fallen out, slowly squatted down, and picked up the bones. Under Tang Beiju's astonished gaze, he calmly tore open the flesh on his chest and stuffed the ribs back into his chest.
The next second, the skin and bones healed themselves little by little, returning to their original state, as if Tang Beiju had not attacked them at all.
"Hehehe! You never thought of that! I'd trade all my future lifespan for a body that can heal itself at will. No matter how you hurt me, I can always recover. Hehehe!"
The skinny man's strength is actually not that strong among the three of them, but the reason he can become one of the top three strongest people in Lunxun Hall of the Marrow-sucking Country is because he has a powerful healing ability. As long as his heart is not dead, any part of the body can be repaired.
Of course, the skinny man would definitely not tell Tang Beiju about this weakness of his heart.
Moreover, in order to prevent others from discovering the secret that his heart was his weak spot, he deliberately wore a thin gauze with his upper body almost naked, so that it could be clearly seen that he did not install any additional protective barriers on his heart.
In fact, beyond that layer of skin, beneath the flesh, he had already strengthened defenses in every link around the heart.
After saying that, he carefully looked at Tang Beiju's expression. Unexpectedly, Tang Beiju was shocked, but he did not look terrified as he wanted to see. Instead, he looked like he was thinking seriously.
What is he thinking about?
Soon, he knew the answer.
"Then how long can you live?" Tang Beiju asked directly.
"Thirty-five."
"How old are you?"
"Exactly thirty."
"Are you satisfied if you live to be thirty-five?"
Hearing this question, the skinny man sneered, looked at Tang Beiju with a look of contempt, and said proudly:
"Hehehe! Because I only have five years left to live, which is shorter than others, so you want to hurt me by using my lifespan as an excuse?
Don't let your fantasies fool you. I'm telling you, living to thirty-five is actually a blessing for me.
I don't need to think about retirement, I don't need to think about passing on the family line, I don't need to worry about my children's future. To put it bluntly, I'm not afraid of being heard by the master in charge. My life is short, and I don't even need to continue to devote my long years to completing the tasks assigned to me by the master in charge.
I can live a healthy and active life while also living at my own pace. Many people want to live like me and it is something they would love to have.
"Hmph! Strictly speaking, I'm not sacrificing my lifespan for powerful healing abilities. I'm just greedy and want everything! Hehehe!"
The skinny man's heartfelt words made everyone subconsciously stop what they were doing and look at him with complicated eyes, especially the man in the cheongsam, who felt a sense of sadness in his heart.
The man in the cheongsam thought to himself:
Why do I feel so hurt even though he is the one expressing his thoughts?
Tang Beiju nodded and said slowly, "I see. In other words, you don't care about the length of your life, right?"
"Hehehe! Of course! So you..."
Without waiting for the skinny man to finish speaking, Tang Beiju kicked his legs and came in front of the skinny man at an extremely fast speed. The next second, the long sword pierced the skinny man's heart, and the obstacles near the heart specially installed by the skinny man were also pierced into pieces by the sword.
"Since you don't value your own life, then as your enemy, I have even less reason to value yours."
Tang Beiju withdrew the sword expressionlessly, then tore the cloth from the corner of his clothes and wiped off the bloodstains on the sword.
The skinny man who was hit hard slowly fell to the ground, his eyes wide open, full of disbelief. He stared straight at Tang Beiju, and uttered a last ray of doubt before his death:
"How...did you find out?"
Tang Beiju sheathed his sword and explained calmly:
"When you were fighting me, you always deliberately avoided the heart and guided me to attack your heart, as if you were letting me know that your heart wasn't your fatal point.
Inferring from this, your heart must be your weak point, and you must have added a protective layer inside your heart. Then I just need to use my utmost internal strength and infuse it into my sword force. Perhaps I can break through your protective layer and strike your weak point directly."
I see......
The skinny man couldn't help but chuckle. He actually lost here. He was too smart and ended up being outsmarted by his own cleverness.
The skinny man closed his eyes and died completely before dawn.
Tang Beiju sighed imperceptibly and thought to himself:
The people of the Marrow-sucking Country have never encountered anyone treacherous and cunning. Why are they so naive?
If Tang Beiju knew that the skinny man had always been described as insidious and cunning before he met him, he would probably be shocked.
"Ahhhh, he actually managed to finish off his opponent before me! Now I have to hurry."
After Tang Beiju dealt with the skinny man, he turned his gaze to Yu Hui. Yu Hui was stunned for a moment, then reacted and immediately said with a grin.
After he finished speaking, he glanced at the man in the cheongsam standing next to him. The long sword he usually used for practice suddenly emitted a green light under his hand. He raised the sword and made a ready stance.
Seeing this, the cheongsam man's hair stood on end. He pointed the red rose in his hand at Yu Hui, ready to prepare for any attack Yu Hui might launch next.
The red rose in his hand, at first glance, looked like an ordinary flower, which only served an ornamental purpose and was completely useless in battle.
However, in fact, the red rose in his hand has thorns. The short thorns can extend or shorten in length at any time according to his needs, forming a series of poisonous thorns, which is very dangerous.
Yu Hui moved.
When the cheongsam man saw it, he immediately activated the red rose in his hand. The next moment, a large number of huge thorns rushed towards Yu Hui, determined to take Yu Hui down.
Because the thorns were too huge, the surrounding walls were actually broken directly. Tang Beiju saw that the situation was not good, so he made a quick decision and immediately carried the emaciated man who was already dead on the ground away from the scene.
Yu Hui was not in a hurry. He walked easily through the gaps among the thorns. Under the cheongsam man's incredulous gaze, he came in front of the cheongsam man and came face to face with him, with a distance of only two centimeters between them.
"Don't even think about it!"
The red rose in the cheongsam man's hand instantly turned into a sharp rose hairpin, trying to counter Yu Hui's sword.
As for Yu Hui, he smiled and raised his arms on both sides, opened his hands, and looked as if he had no ill intentions.
No! Where's his sword?!
The man in the cheongsam felt something was wrong when he saw that Yu Hui had nothing in his hand. He scanned Yu Hui's body up and down, looking for any loopholes.
Seeing that he was very busy, Yu Hui guessed what he was looking for and very "enthusiastically" pointed him in the direction behind him.
Behind!
The man in the cheongsam quickly turned his head and looked behind him. In an instant, a sword pierced his abdomen, and the attack came from Yu Hui's position.
"You! You're so old, but your combat awareness is worse than a three-year-old child's. Why do you just look wherever someone points?"
Yu Hui commented helplessly.
After he finished speaking, he retracted his sword, and the thorns around him disappeared in an instant with his movement. The man in the cheongsam jumped backwards, and the red rose in his hand withered in an instant. The black petals drifted away in the wind, and what remained in his hand was the remnant of the rose that had completely lost its edge.
Yu Hui put the sword back into the scabbard, slowly bent down, picked up the scattered withered roses one by one, slowly closed the eyes of the cheongsam man with one hand, and with the other hand, gently placed the petals on his chest.
"it's over?"
Yu Hui had just stood up when Tang Beiju's voice came from behind.
Seeing that there were no thorns around, Tang Beiju guessed that Yu Hui had already dealt with the cheongsam man. He placed the skinny man in a conspicuous place so that passers-by could collect his body as soon as possible, and then he immediately rushed back.
Yu Hui turned his head to look at him and nodded slightly.
Suddenly, Yu Hui's ears twitched slightly, a smile appeared on his face, and he said softly, "Qiuyue is here."
There was no doubt about it. He was very familiar with the usual footsteps of his apprentice. It must be Tang Qiuyue.
For a moment, Yu Hui's eyes revealed admiration and satisfaction.
He had a sharp eye and could easily detect that the man in the miniskirt at the door was the strongest and most clear-headed among the three.
If Tang Qiuyue were to fight against such a person, she would definitely suffer a lot, and it would take a lot of time for her to catch up.
The speed was even faster than he expected. It seemed that Tang Qiuyue must have made progress in combat.
Sure enough, not long after, Tang Qiuyue, covered in injuries, appeared in front of Yu Hui and Tang Beiju.
"Brother, Master, are you all okay? Why are there only two of you?"
As soon as Tang Qiuyue arrived, she looked around and asked immediately.
Yu Hui: "Let's continue the action. I'll tell you in detail on the way. Ren'er and the others are waiting for us."
Tang Qiuyue: "Okay!"
