"Ha-ha … still trying to run? Stop right there!
Ice shield … "
The young man roared and a few thick ice blocks appeared out of thin air in front of Zi Lingwei!
After using the second skill a few times, the young man's energy was more than half of Zi Lingwei's.
He didn't want to continue chasing. He saw that the edge of the forest was not far away.
If a demon beast appeared, he wouldn't be able to get his hands on her so easily!
Zi Lingwei jumped at the sudden block of ice in front of her. She hastily changed direction and fled to the right.
However, this short pause had already allowed the young man behind him to shorten the distance between them to less than five meters.
"Beauty, here I come!"
Seeing that Zi Lingwei was within his reach, the young man leaped up and pounced toward her!
"Ah!"
Plop …
At such a close distance, the young man leaped with all his might and grabbed Zi Lingwei's ankle. Zi Lingwei fell to the ground with a thud!
"Scram!"
With a roar, Zi Lingwei ignored the pain in her body and stabbed at the young man with her dagger!
Clang …
The young man seemed to have anticipated Zi Lingwei's move and blocked her attack with his scepter.
The impact was so strong that her dagger flew out of her hand!
"He-he … big brother likes your shrewish nature!
Come, my little beauty! "
With her first strike missing, Zi Lingwei knew she wouldn't have another chance.
His opponent's strength was much higher than his own. Now, his body was completely pressed against his own, causing him to be unable to move at all except for his hands.
Seeing the young man's wretched smile, Zi Lingwei closed her eyes in resignation and buried her hands deep in the ground!
"Li Mo!
We'll meet again in the next life! "
After a loud shout, she bit her tongue and committed suicide!
"Bastard!
Scram! "
Thump …
After the shout, Zi Lingwei felt her body lighten.
She opened her eyes and saw the young man lying a few meters away!
"Li Mo!
Is that you? "
Looking at the familiar figure next to her, Zi Lingwei couldn't believe her eyes.
She didn't know if Heaven pitied her infatuation, or if Li Mo heard her call and saved her in the nick of time!
"Zi Lingwei!
Are you okay? "
Seeing the teary Zi Lingwei looking at him, Li Mo pulled her into his embrace!
Zi Ling felt as if a lifetime had passed. This happiness had come too suddenly.
She only sobbed in Li Mo's arms, not replying.
"Zi Lingwei, how are you?
Don't scare me. What happened to you? Did that bastard hurt you? "
Li Mo helped her up and placed his hands on her shoulders as he asked with concern.
"I … I'm fine!"
Zi Ling said softly as she wiped the tears off her face.
But she didn't have the courage to look him in the eye.
"Phew … It's good that you're fine, it's good that you're fine!
You scared me to death!
Let's go, I'll take you to teach that bastard who bullied you a lesson! "
After saying that, he pulled Zi Lingwei's delicate little hand and walked towards the youth who had fallen to the ground.
"Hey!
Don't play dead here! "
Li Mo kicked the youth and the youth shivered. He endured the pain in his chest and got up, kneeling on the ground.
"Big brother, big brother!
I was wrong, I was wrong!
Please spare me, it's my mentor who made me do this! "
'Saying it to me is useless. If you want to apologize, say it to her.'
If not for Zi Lingwei's presence, Li Mo would've killed him already. Why would he let him talk so much?
"Great aunt!
I was wrong. I may have had improper thoughts about you, but you didn't suffer any harm.
Moreover, this big brother just kicked me to teach me a lesson. Forgive me and let me go.
Don't worry, I won't tell my teacher about your companion! "
The youth knelt before Zi Lingwei and begged with tears and snot.
"Humph!
If he didn't save me in time, my fate would've been miserable!
Have you ever thought of letting me go?
You'll die today! "
Zi Lingwei's face was as cold as ice, without a trace of the tenderness she showed to Li Mo.
"Hey!
What did you say?
What's the meaning of not telling your mentor that you saw me? "
Li Mo heard something in the young man's words and interrupted.
"Ah!
This … "
The youth was startled by Li Mo's question. He knew he said the wrong thing and put himself in a difficult situation.
"Heh … not going to say?
Kid, you're pretty gutsy.
Fine, let's see if your mouth or my sword is tougher. "
After saying that, he pulled out the Dragonscale Scarlet Sword and placed it on his neck.
"Big brother, I was wrong!
Don't kill me. I'll tell you everything.
Teacher Wu told me to bring her to lure you out. If you show up, I'm to signal him! "
"Oh?
Am I that important in your teacher's heart?
Why did he have to lure me out? "
Li Mo's face no longer held a playful expression. It was now ice cold, making the kneeling youth shudder.
He wanted to know if his killing of Liuli City's students was exposed.
"It's because … it's because when you entered the forest, he sent a few students to kill you. However, it's already been a month, and those students haven't returned to report on their mission.
He suspects you killed them. That's why he had me bring her to lure you out to confirm his suspicions.
Dozens of our guild members have already entered the Dense Fog Forest. Our goal is to find the missing students and you! "
"Humph!
If I appear, it means that your people have already died in my hands, right? "
"Ah … yes … that's right!"
"Ha-ha …"
Hearing the youth's trembling answer, Li Mo threw his head back in laughter.
"I'll tell you right now, those students of yours did indeed die by my hands.
However, it's not just them. All the members of your guild who went missing in the Misty Forest died at my hands, including that Feng Qingxuan guy! "
Li Mo's words made the youth fall on his butt.
He was shocked, but he also knew that Li Mo had told him everything. His life had come to an end.
Not just him, even Zi Lingwei was in disbelief at Li Mo's words.
She had seen Li Mo's methods before, but Leng Yihan had been there.
Now he killed so many of Liuli City's students alone, not to mention Liuli City's future, Feng Qingxuan!
"I see you're a smart one. You should know your fate!
Do you want me to do it, or do you want to do it yourself? "
Li Mo's words echoed in the youth's mind like a death knell. His face was ashen.
But his hands were still moving. Since he was going to die today, he might as well send the signal before Li Mo killed him.
"Humph!
Reckless fool! "
Swish …
But his actions didn't escape Li Mo's eyes.
The Dragon Ridge Scarlet Sword flashed with a reddish-gold light, and the young man fell to the ground with his eyes wide open in fear. In his hand, he was still holding onto the signal tube that had yet to ignite!
"Liuli City!
Since you want my life, let's see how it goes!
Those who entered the Misty Forest better pray I don't find you, or I'll have my revenge! "
