Chapter 197: Moved

Chapter 197: Moved

The tall heavy horse leaped forcefully over the corpses, carrying its master as it charged toward Li Huowang.

Li Huowang narrowly dodged, and just as he raised his sword to look back, Peng Longteng had already lifted the heavy halberd in her hand and smashed it down toward his face.

The whistling wind blew Li Huowang's hair backward.

With such gravity, Li Huowang dared not block hard with his own weapon.

Even if he could catch it, his body would be crushed to pulp.

Li Huowang had just dodged when the weightless giant halberd actually swung horizontally with her movement and chased after him.

Suddenly a tall figure surged out from the side, it was Gao Zhijian.

He roared, lifting the mace in his hand, and smashed it toward that long halberd.

"Clang," a dull sound, the long halberd

was knocked slightly off course.

But that long halberd hooked, and just like that easily dragged the sturdy Gao Zhijian flying away.

"Jingle jingle~!" The bell sound rang again, Master You descended from the sky, flying toward Peng Longteng.

But those hands formed of lines, just when they were about to touch, their bodies turned, and quickly flew away again.

Facing the armor-clad Peng Longteng brimming with killing intent, Master You actually dared not even touch her.

Li Huowang quickly glanced backward, seeing a cut deep enough to see bone appear on Gao Zhijian's right arm, blood gushing out wildly.

"I'll block this woman! You guys run fast! She wants me!"

Yet no one listened to Li Huowang's words, everyone stood firmly behind Li Huowang.

The clip-clop of horse hooves sounded again, Peng Longteng led the horse back and forth a few steps in place.

Through the hole in the faceplate, she saw this scene, a mocking smile appearing on her ferocious face.

"Little whelp, seems these people value you highly, how about this, we duel one on one, if you can win against me, I promise to let you take your people and go, how about it?"

Finished speaking without waiting for Li Huowang to answer, she pulled the reins hard, standing like a low mountain she pressed over again.

Looking at Peng Longteng before him, Li Huowang struggled to lean to the left.

"No, must knock her off the horse, this is really too passive."

Quickly bending low, dodging the heavy halberd sweeping over from the opponent, as the two crossed each other, Li Huowang gritted his teeth, extending his sword to chop at the horse's hind legs.

Don't know if his eyes were blurred, Li Huowang actually felt there were eyes on the horse's body looking at him.

Immediately, the vein-bulging horse leg seemed to have precognitive ability, first retracting then kicking out.

Li Huowang soared into the air, collapsing a nearby low house.

Waiting to see Li Huowang stagger out from inside, Peng Longteng laughed.

"Not bad, seems you spy from Siqi have some skills, come, continue."

Looking at the woman before him, Li Huowang spat several mouthfuls of blood onto the ground.

The opponent's martial prowess was superb, he was almost being suppressed and beaten, if he didn't use something ruthless, fear today he truly couldn't get out.

"Rustle rustle" bamboo slips spread quickly on the ground, Li Huowang steeled his heart, placing his left hand upon them.

Immediately digging out a dagger from the pile of torture tools, he cut down toward the bowl mouth area.

Peng Longteng saw this expression freeze, lightly lifting her chin.

The next moment, a black shadow shot toward Li Huowang's face.

He just turned his head to dodge it, who would have thought that black shadow was just to attract his attention.

"Puchi" sound, a black iron spear pierced through Li Huowang's palm, just like that pinning his hand to the ground.

Peng Longteng rode her horse slowly coming before Li Huowang, the halberd tip scraping the ground with a slash.

Flung the Great Thousand Record spread on the ground away to a nearby roof.

"Didn't expect you spy actually, also involved with the insane Ao Jing madman."

"This is the one on one you spoke of?" Li Huowang looked at Peng Longteng asking through gritted teeth.

"Hehe, kid, you actually believed it, let me tell you, the first rule in art of war, is called all is fair in war."

"No matter what method, as long as it works there is no reason not to use it, just like for example now."

"I'll teach you another move, feint east attack west, come on, lads, you go kill all those actors."

"Remember don't kill so fast, slowly torture them, let them scream as loud as possible, so this kid has no heart to fight, attending to head not tail."

The opponent's words made Li Huowang's veins bulge on his forehead, rapidly igniting clusters of rage in his heart.

"You this—" Li Huowang words just halfway spoken, Peng Longteng lifted the sword in her hand and smashed it toward his face.

"No! I cannot die! If I die, heaven knows how these people will deal with Bai Lingmiao and the others!"

Li Huowang wanted to dodge, but his body was nailed by the iron spear, fundamentally unable to move

He could only watch helplessly as that halberd distance to his face grew closer and closer.

"Move! Move! You move for me!!"

In Li Huowang's roar, that long halberd smashed into Li Huowang's brain.

But immediately, that long halberd drilled out from inside again, smashing onto the ground.

The Li Huowang head that should have been completely crushed, yet had not a bit of damage.

Li Huowang suddenly felt he could move.

Minding nothing else, Li Huowang quickly raised his sword, stepping hard on the horse body, stabbing toward Peng Longteng's faceplate.

Peng Longteng lifted halberd to counterattack, but only toward Li Huowang's left side blindly chopping.

"Clang~!" a sound of clear crispness, the past previously unfavorable Right Family Sword suddenly could not pierce the opponent's faceplate!

A flash of inspiration, Li Huowang without hesitation took out the "Fire Ao True Scripture" and covered it over the opponent's face.

Looking at Peng Longteng with pity, as Li Huowang chanted that obscure incantation.

The wax on the book melted, carrying flames along the gaps on the faceplate drilled inside, to seek those places needing treatment.

The "sizzle" sound of frying things rang out, Peng Longteng let out an angry curse. "Damn! It drilled into my eyes!"

She quickly opened the face mask, reaching hand toward inside to grab.

Following her hand going in together was also Li Huowang's sword.

Instinctively feeling danger, Peng Longteng suddenly lifted her chin, again lifting the heavy halberd in hand to chop toward Li Huowang's side.

With such an open guard how could Li Huowang miss the opportunity, foot stepping on the horse head, suddenly lifting the sword to thrust inside.

"Puchi" sound, Peng Longteng's body stiffened, her tall body falling down off the horse.

"Lord! Lord!!" Whether thief conscript soldiers, or short weapon soldiers seeing this scene, instantly their guts burst, hurriedly putting down everything in hand rushing up.

Li Huowang on the horse back jumped, picking up the "Great Thousand Record" on the roof and rushing toward the carriage beside.

"Go! Break out while they're in disarray! That woman's bones are too hard, failed to pierce!"

Chun Xiaoman shook the bell and her head as if possessed.

Dozens of You Lords descended from the sky, charging at those blocking the path.

With Peng Longteng fallen from his horse, the other penal soldiers had no heart for battle.

With the You Lords' aid, they escaped successfully.

Yet they dared not relax their guard; those penal soldiers could pursue at any moment.

He stabbed hard at the horses' rumps, sending all the carriages rushing toward the main road.

Immediately after, Li Huowang led the others, grabbing necessities, and charged down a small path.

Hoof prints could confuse the direction of their pursuit.

They ran for a long time; when the others could run no more, Li Huowang let them rest by the mountain foot.

Several large stones fallen from the nearby mountain stood around, just enough to hide Li Huowang and the others.

Li Huowang felt exceedingly surprised that they had managed to escape.

"What happened just now? That woman seemed mad, attacking my left side relentlessly; is there something on my left?"

Li Huowang turned his head to look left, finding nothing there but barren mountain rocks.

"Senior Brother Li! Senior Brother Li, where are you!!"

Seeing her state, Li Huowang panicked; had Bai Lingmiao's eyes gone wrong? Could she not see me, such a large person?

He stood up and hurried toward her.

But after just a few steps, everyone was startled, stepping back in unison.

Following the direction of their fearful eyes, Li Huowang turned his head to look left again.

This time he saw something, a red figure seen from behind, and the back of a head.

Half that person's body was outside, half stuck in the stone, very eerie.

Li Huowang subconsciously gripped the sword hilt with one hand, stepping back to create distance.

Unexpectedly, as Li Huowang retreated, that person also retreated, moving out from within the stone.

When Li Huowang saw clearly that person's attire and the torture tool bag at the hem, he suddenly realized, this was clearly his own body!

Li Huowang looked down, but found nothing beneath him.

As if he were merely a camera suspended in midair.

Li Huowang, face full of shock, looked up again at the red figure before him, muttering to himself.

"Oh my god, it really moved..."
