Mortal Mirror

Zhu Zhu was deeply shocked by the scars on Li Ergou's body. After all, hearing about it was nothing compared to seeing it with her own eyes.

Perhaps at that moment, she had completely forgiven Li Ergou's peeping and decided not to beat him half to death.

Her beautiful eyes flickered, and her voice was a little choked as she said, "I really didn't expect you to be so miserable. If possible, we, we could be friends."

"Really?" Li Ergou was overjoyed, not wanting to have another friend.

As the two were talking, they heard Zhang Baisui scream, "Damn you, I didn't expect you to have a backup plan."

Without anyone knowing when, Zhao Tuozi had taken out a pair of iron claws. These iron claws were connected by chains, allowing them to extend and retract freely, but they were extremely vicious. At that moment, Zhang Baisui's chest was being gripped by the iron claws, digging deep into his flesh and bones. He couldn't break free at all.

Without time to think, Zhao Tuozi suddenly yanked, directly tearing away Zhang Baisui's chest flesh, bones, and even his heart.

Zhang Baisui's eyes widened, and he screamed miserably, his face full of disbelief. His voice trembled as he said, "Baisui, Baisui, I really can only live to a hundred years old? My mother, why didn't you name me Qiansui back then?"

Filled with unwillingness, he collapsed to the ground with a thud, dying with his eyes wide open.

Zhao Tuozi snorted coldly, stepped forward, and felt around Zhang Baisui's corpse. After feeling around for a long time, he only found a few tattered talismans. Disappointment flashed across his face, and he said with disdain, "What a pauper. No wonder he would do such a thing. He's really lowering the standards of the Daoist sect."

Unexpectedly, at that moment, Zhang Baisui, who had already died, suddenly sat up, and the copper coin sword in his hand stabbed into Zhao Tuozi's abdomen.

Immediately afterward, Zhang Baisui's abdomen suddenly burst open, revealing a hideous infant head. The infant laughed hideously and said, "Vile demon, didn't expect this, did you? You killed my host, now you can be my host."

As he said that, the infant actually crawled out of Zhang Baisui's stomach and pounced towards Zhao Tuozi.

Li Ergou and Zhu Zhu were both frightened by this terrifying scene. Li Ergou's voice trembled as he said, "My god, there's even this kind of operation? This heretical path is too bizarre."

Zhu Zhu reacted and said, "Oh, no wonder that guy seemed like he had a mental illness. It turns out he was parasitized by this infant monster. And this infant is indeed terrifying. This is also my first time seeing something like this."

As they spoke, Zhao Tuozi's face also showed surprise, and he was also frightened by this terrifying scene. The infant pounced on him, opened its mouth, and bit towards his abdomen, as if trying to get inside his stomach.

Frightened, Zhao Tuozi punched out. The infant was not as powerful as imagined and was blasted away by Zhao Tuozi's punch, its head exploding. Zhao Tuozi, afraid that it would come back to life, directly summoned the iron claws.

The iron claws were extremely agile. In mid-air, they grabbed the infant's corpse and squeezed it with force, instantly turning the infant's corpse into minced meat, dead beyond dead.

Thus, the infant was completely dead.

Zhao Tuozi was not feeling well either. His abdomen was pierced by the copper coin sword, and blood flowed non-stop. He hurriedly took out a small medicine bottle from his bosom and poured some white powder on the wound. Strangely, the wound immediately stopped bleeding.

Zhao Tuozi looked at Li Ergou and Zhu Zhu with a pale face and said, "Since you have seen my true identity, consider it your bad luck. Will you commit suicide, or should I do it myself?"

His tone became increasingly sinister.

Seeing Zhao Tuozi's appearance, Li Ergou thought that this old guy really wanted to kill himself and Zhu Zhu. It wouldn't be a pity if he died, but wouldn't he be harming Zhu Zhu?

After all, if he hadn't peeked at her, she wouldn't have ended up in this situation. He felt somewhat responsible for dragging her into this.

He looked at Zhao Tuozi, fortunately, this old guy had been stabbed by a sword. Although he looked fine on the outside, his pale face proved that he was seriously injured. Looking at the dying black cat, he knew that being injured by that copper coin sword was not as simple as just being injured. Perhaps it had also damaged his soul.

This guy was obviously bluffing. However, even injured, a cultivator like him could easily crush small ants like himself to death. Zhu Zhu was injured and even more at his mercy.

In this situation, he wasn't without a chance. After all, he possessed martial arts true energy. After these few days of cultivation, it was as thick as three strands of hair. Although he didn't know how much power it could unleash, he had to fight to the death no matter what. Even if he couldn't kill him, it would be good if he could seriously injure him.

If he died and Zhu Zhu could escape, his death would be worth it. If he tried his best and it still didn't work, he couldn't do anything about it. At least if he died, he wouldn't feel too guilty.

After struggling in his heart, he made up his mind and immediately pretended to be nonchalant and said, "You are a dying man, and you still want to kill us? Dream on.

Why don't we discuss it? You let us go, and we won't say anything about what happened in this cave, and we won't reveal your identity. Wouldn't that be a win-win for everyone?"

Zhao Tuozi chuckled and said, "Little brat, you're dreaming. In this world, I never believe anyone's words. I only believe one thing: only dead people will truly keep secrets. This is also the secret to why I have never been identified in my years of wandering the pugilistic world.

I advise you to commit suicide. At least you won't suffer too much."

Li Ergou said angrily, "So there's no room for negotiation."

"Hehe, negotiation? You're thinking too much."

Li Ergou suddenly said, "Look at your spirit cat. It's about to die. Aren't you going to save it and instead want to kill me?"

Zhao Tuozi said indifferently, "Useless things. It's fine if it dies. I can always cultivate another one. You don't need to worry about that."

The spirit cat was intelligent and seemed to understand Zhao Tuozi's words. It took a deep look at Zhao Tuozi, and tears actually fell from the corners of its eyes, which was quite magical.

Li Ergou shook his head and said, "Hey, you're really ruthless. Since that's the case, we have nothing to talk about."

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly waved his hand and threw the sand he had prepared earlier at Zhao Tuozi's eyes.

Zhao Tuozi sneered and said, "Petty tricks."

With a wave of his hand, a gust of wind blew, and the sand was immediately blown to the side. His voice was fierce as he said, "Little brat, it seems you don't know the power of us cultivators. How dare a mere mortal resist? Die."

With a wave of his hand, the iron claws on his hand grabbed towards Li Ergou. The thing was so fast that Li Ergou couldn't dodge it. Fortunately, at the critical moment, when the thing was about a meter away from him, its speed became slower in his eyes.

Seeing the trajectory of the claws clearly, he suddenly had an idea. Whether he lived or died, perhaps this was his only chance.

Immediately, he slightly dodged, avoiding the fatal blow of the claws. The iron claws grabbed his shoulder. The thing was sharp, and even though Li Ergou was tough, it still dug deeply into his bones, and blood flowed non-stop.
