The darkness is a great camouflage, but at the same time, it can also be an obstacle to some extent, because you can't see yourself clearly!
That's not the most important thing. After all, we're all living under the same sky. If we can't see things clearly, then we're all the same!
Those who practice martial arts have much better night vision than the average person, and those who go out at night are mostly martial arts practitioners. They might go anywhere to fight and kill!
In the past, Geng Yuepeng wouldn't have been afraid at all. It wasn't his first time operating at night. He was a seasoned veteran with plenty of experience and didn't need to worry about it. He could easily handle those situations. But this time, he panicked.
Because he encountered an unprecedented situation!
If he hadn't been a skeptic of ghosts and gods, and if he hadn't been wearing a lot of talismans to ward off evil spirits, he would have almost thought he had entered another world!
Can someone tell him why these people are all wearing menacing masks? Who are they trying to scare?
That's not all, there were people ringing bells in there, yes, the kind of bells used in rituals called the Three Pure Ones Bell!
Someone who didn't know better might think they were performing a religious ceremony!
Who on earth is so despicable as to be playing tricks on me?
If you ruin his plans, who cares about being a monk? If he catches you, he'll kill you without hesitation!
Unfortunately, the night was too beautiful, so beautiful that it was intoxicating, and once intoxicated, one becomes dizzy and confused!
Puffs of smoke rose up, their color visible in the darkness, but the smell was extremely unpleasant and pungent!
In the darkness, I don't know who sprayed what kind of water, but as soon as it touched my skin, it felt a burning pain. If it accidentally got into my eyes, it would be deadly!
If you're in so much pain you can't even open your eyes, and you can't bear it, then not rolling on the ground is a testament to your strong willpower!
"Who is it?! Show yourself! Stop playing tricks! If you've got the guts, show yourself and fight me one-on-one. Stop cowering like a coward, what kind of gentleman are you?!"
Geng Yuepeng and his men were caught off guard by the series of actions and were thrown into chaos. They hadn't even started fighting yet, and they had already been made so disheveled by the other side. It was too embarrassing!
The key issue is that he himself had no idea what the other party was doing!
I almost thought the world had started to turn into a fantasy.
They had never encountered those smells before, and found them extremely unpleasant and unbearable. Tears streamed down their faces, and they coughed incessantly.
Geng Yuepeng began to feel uneasy, because no one responded to him!
Logically speaking, no matter what, if one party asks a question, the other party should at least respond. However, there was no response at all; those people completely ignored him!
Could it be that he's not human?
How unlucky they were to encounter these evil creatures!
But Geng Yuepeng still didn't completely believe it. He thought it was a person in disguise. If there really was such a thing as the underworld, the evil deeds he had committed were too numerous to count, and those wronged souls would have come to claim his life long ago!
Why wait until now!
Moreover, the number of wronged souls is not accurate; he knows better than anyone that there are far more than that!
There was no response, but he had to make a decision to break out. Otherwise, if he stayed here, no one knew what would happen next.
Unfortunately, Geng Yuepeng had no chance. Once he stepped into this place, there was no way to turn back. He wanted to run, but he couldn't get out!
One by one, the people around him were eliminated, until only he was left.
He wasn't stupid; he knew he probably wouldn't be able to go home tonight, but he wasn't willing to give up!
If he gave up early, he wouldn't be himself. He wouldn't give up easily as long as there's even the slightest hope!
He suddenly regretted it; if he had sent one of his subordinates to handle it, this wouldn't have happened!
This was clearly a trap set up specifically for him!
That Prince of Jingnan probably wasn't really in the manor; it was all just a trap from beginning to end!
"Who exactly are you? Why don't you dare show yourself? If you want to take my life, you should at least let me die knowing why! I know I have too many enemies, and I don't know who it is. I hope you can tell me!"
Geng Yuepeng spoke quite respectfully, but unfortunately no one responded to him.
After careful observation, he finally confirmed that the person in charge was not among them, and he was furious!
That's despicable!
That's incredibly disrespectful of him!
With such strength, these people must have been involved in eliminating the hidden strongholds of the Misty Rain Pavilion!
Who exactly are these people, so powerful that they suddenly appeared? Why have we never heard of them before?
That's incredibly powerful!
But Geng Yuepeng was not one to sit idly by and wait for his fate. He was a master himself, and his reluctance to make any rash moves was merely a test to see where the other party's bottom line was and just how powerful they were.
His men were either lying on the ground, injured, or dead. It seemed he couldn't be relied on anymore. He could only blame himself for being careless. He had made such thorough preparations, yet everything was still disrupted!
The other party doesn't play by the rules at all!
In times of crisis, people are prone to fear and tension, but Geng Yuepeng was the opposite. He remained exceptionally calm, quickly analyzed the situation, and even came up with several seemingly feasible countermeasures in his mind. Which one to use would depend on the actual circumstances.
He knew that if the other party didn't show themselves, they definitely weren't going to let him go. Therefore, he had to be highly vigilant and skillfully escape danger. Even if he got injured, he had to rush out!
If they break free, there's a glimmer of hope; but if they stay, they'll probably be buried in this yellow earth forever!
However, he still underestimated the opponent's strength; the opponent still had a secret weapon that hadn't been revealed yet!
He is highly skilled in martial arts and can take on multiple opponents, but when he encounters someone who lacks martial ethics or doesn't follow the usual path, he'll be thrown off balance.
He thought he was highly skilled in martial arts and had poison on hand, which would allow him to escape unscathed in a critical moment. However, reality still taught him a harsh lesson.
He couldn't help but wonder if he was too old-fashioned, stuck in his ways, and unwilling to accept new things, which led to his current lack of understanding of many things and his current predicament of being hurt by something unknown!
Unable to defeat the opponent, he decided to use his special skill: poison!
But just as he was about to unleash his power, a beam of intense light suddenly shone into his eyes. He was certain that it was indeed a sudden burst of intense light, not sunlight!
Where did that bright light come from in the middle of the night?
He had no time to think; he was determined to accomplish his feat even with his eyes closed.
The blinding beam of light suddenly disappeared, plunging the world back into darkness, and the surrounding atmosphere changed.
Geng Yuepeng quickly adjusted his state. Once his eyes had adjusted, he didn't forget what he was supposed to do. He stretched out his hand, intending to throw it away, but then a bright light suddenly appeared and shone precisely into his eyes.
This time, he didn't have time to react. His hand suddenly hurt, and the poison he had hidden in his hand fell out. Then, he was slashed several times on his body.
The speed was so fast that he didn't have time to react!
That wasn't the end of it. A figure moved swiftly, delivering several more stabs. Finally, he was stabbed a few more times and collapsed to the ground, barely alive.
Who exactly are you?
"You want to know?"
