In this way, Old Man Zhao had a chance to take advantage of it. He was as fast as an arrow that left the bow. Seeing that he was about to pass the black snake, Old Man Zhao revealed a proud smile. A beast would always be a beast. Playing mind games with him was still a little lacking.
However, at this moment, the black snake roared, and its eyes shone with a scarlet light, giving people a chilling feeling of fear. Then, its tail shook, and it soared into the air, pouncing towards Old Man Zhao.
For the beast core, the black snake was willing to risk its life. Now, it was Old Man Zhao's turn to be in a terrible situation. One man and one snake tangled together. The black snake was very agile. Every time it whipped its tail, it contained a fierce destructive power, and it was accompanied by a crackling sound.
Comparatively speaking, Old Man Zhao had more combat experience. However, he, who had lost an arm, was slightly lacking in terms of lethality. Hence, he had been in a defensive stance all along.
I squinted my eyes, and my brain worked quickly. To me, this was a rare opportunity, but who to choose as the target was a problem.
According to my feeling, this Black Snake is stronger. It should be comparable to a warrior at the late stage of concealing strength, or even the peak of concealing strength. If I surprise him with a move and give old man Zhao a severe warning, he won't be a threat anymore.
However, I wasn't sure if I could continue fighting the black snake. It was a big threat. If I chose to attack the black snake, I might not succeed. After all, its defense was as solid as a rock.
If I failed, I would have to bear the wrath of both sides. It was really a headache. In my current situation, I couldn't even talk about protecting myself.
Since the gunmen kept firing at the black snake, it was undoubtedly enraged. Not only did it have to deal with Old Man Zhao, it also had to dodge the gunshots.
It let out a roar that carried a kind of penetrating power. The twenty gunmen first stiffened, then fell to the ground at the same time and fainted. The domineering sound wave attack was not inferior to Qi-Jin. If a martial artist wanted to achieve a similar effect, he would at least need to have the strength of a HuaJin Master!
On this point, Black Snake still had the advantage. Looking at the gunmen who had fallen to the ground, Old Man Zhao's face darkened. "Hey, this kid wants to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight. Don't be fooled. Get rid of him first. I don't want the core."
Although he had been in contact with the Black Snake for a period of time, Old Man Zhao did not know what it was capable of. At this moment, he was alarmed. It seemed that once some mistakes were made, there was no way to turn back. This brat had tricked him, so he had to pay the price. If the commander-in-chief blamed him, he would push the blame onto the Black Snake.
Old Man Zhao had clearly thrown caution to the wind. Even though he coveted the core, he was no match for the Black Serpent. It was impossible for him to cooperate with me to deal with the Black Serpent. The best thing to do now was to accommodate the Black Serpent.
When it consumed the Inner Elixir, it would definitely have a qualitative leap. At that time, the Zhao Family would still have a chance to make a name for itself by relying on it!
Moreover, Old Man Zhao was worried that if I made a move and dealt a fatal blow to him, it would be troublesome.
In a short period of time, Old Man Zhao made such a decision. Hearing his words, the Black Snake looked at me sinisterly. F * ck, if I had known earlier, I wouldn't have dilly-dallied. Old Man Zhao had seen through my intentions with just a glance.
However, with my actions, I had eliminated the threat from the gunmen. Otherwise, with their indiscriminate bombardment and the threat from Old Man Zhao, it would be hard for me to resist.
I nimbly picked up the Inner Elixir. I wanted to swallow it, but the Inner Elixir contained an astonishing amount of energy. It would take some time to digest. Furthermore, Director Du had warned me that it wasn't suitable for me to consume the Inner Elixir. Although the Blood Demon's remnant consciousness had been sealed, he could still take the opportunity to benefit from it.
Facing the man and the snake, I couldn't help but focus my attention. Even though I had fought with Master Ouyang before, it was with the help of the Blood Demon. My confidence was at an all-time high.
It could be said that this was the biggest challenge I had ever faced in my life. Seeing that I had kept the Inner Elixir, the Black Snake was enraged and surged towards me.
Instead, it was Old Man Zhao's turn to watch the show. I took a deep breath and gathered the power in my fists as I stared at the Black Snake.
Since I had grown up in the village, I wasn't unfamiliar with creatures like snakes. As the saying goes, when you want to beat a snake, hit it seven inches away. I also understood this logic. Besides the seven inches, there was also a saying, hit it three inches away.
Previously, when I had shot, I had been too far away. Moreover, the Black Snake had intentionally dodged, so it was hard to injure it. When the gunmen had fired, I had carefully observed it. Besides its eyes, the Black Snake had other weaknesses.
Seeing the Black Snake rush over, it opened its bloody mouth and a bloody smell assaulted my nostrils. I moved like lightning and dodged its attack. I extended my left hand and grabbed the snake's body. However, its skin was extremely smooth and I couldn't grab it at all. The Black Snake rapidly slithered forward and used its tail to whip me.
I didn't want to be outdone and threw an extremely powerful Bajiquan at it.
"Bang!"
There was a loud sound as if gold and iron had collided. I felt my right arm go numb. The Black Snake had escaped from my palm and turned around again. Its speed was unimaginable. With a squeak, it bit my shoulder.
I clearly felt the Black Snake's sharp teeth sink into my bones. That kind of pain that went deep into my soul made me shiver. However, I didn't hesitate and continued to punch the Black Snake's body.
This was an angry attack. Even if the Black Snake's defense was very strong, it couldn't withstand it. It hurriedly let go of its bite and slithered to the side.
"Aha, this brat is dead for sure!"
Old Man Zhao couldn't hide the joy in his eyes. As expected, his decision was correct. If he had fought with the Black Snake just now, it was very likely that this brat would have reaped the benefits.
However, he took the initiative to give up and let the Black Snake launch a fatal attack on me. Now that I was bitten, I was already a dead man.
Although I had used Little Fatty before and didn't succeed in my plan, the result was the same. After my fierce beating, the Black Snake had become a frosted eggplant.
Even from far away, Old Man Zhao could feel the power of Bajiquan. If it was him, he probably wouldn't have much chance of winning. However, the situation was clear now.
"Hmph, little bastard. With just this bit of ability, you still want to overthrow my Zhao family. It's simply an idiot's ravings!" Zhao Lei Ting couldn't help but agree with him, revealing his hatred.
