The Beast Driver held a small hatchet in his hand that seemed to be covered with a foul smelling liquid.
One didn't need to be a genius to know that it was poison!
~SPLAT~
The hatchet cleaved through the attacker's shoulder, cutting through his bones!
~HISS~
At the same time, fizzing sound could be heard as the flesh started to fester. The speed was very fast, and it was as if strong acid had been poured into the flesh.
"ARGH!" the attacker cried in pain, finding his left arm to be disabled.
He couldn't move it, and his flesh was also festering.
Even though it had started from his shoulder, it was already starting to reach his upper biceps.
~POP~
The man didn't seem too anxious though and quickly popped open a small pill bottle. The bottle only had a single pill, but once it was open, a rich medicinal scent burst out of it.
Anyone that inhaled it would feel refreshed and even mortals would find their illnesses being alleviated!
All this just from a whiff of the scent!
"That pill…" Luo Tu instantly recognized the pill. "How did you get that pill?!" After all, it was a pill that his own clan manufactured.
This left him baffled as to how the attacker would obtain a pill like that. This was because it wasn't a pill that his Luo clan sold. It was especially kept for their personal use and could be considered a life saving pill.
It was even called as the True Luo Invigorating Immortal pill.
Having the name of their clan attached to it showed the recognition they had. After all, only those who had truly created a new pill would be able to name it after them. The True Luo Invigorating Immortal Pill was one such alchemical pills and was said to have been refined by their founder.
It was on the basis of this pill that their founder had become a noble and established his own clan.
This pill wasn't sold and had been kept within the clan. Only a few close friends of the clan and honored guests could even be gifted this pill.
Luo Tu himself only had one such pill with him.
It was given to him when he was a child and had accompanied him for hundreds of years, never having been used.
After all, the materials needed to refine the pill were valuable, and the skill needed to manufacture it was even more unique. Even in his clan, there were just four alchemist who could even refine the True Luo Invigorating Immortal pill.
Considering all these facts, it was simply absurd as to how the pill was in the hands of his attacker.
~humm~
But while Luo Tu was lost in doubt, his attacker had already started to heal.
True Luo Invigorating Immortal Pill was truly worth its reputation and neutralized the poison almost instantly. Not just that, but the rotten flesh of the attacker was also healed and his bones were mended.
Even his immortal Qi was restored to a certain extent.
Within seconds, the man was back to his peak condition.
'This doesn't make any sense? There aren't many people who would even have that pill… even if I consider the outsiders, there's just two in the city, the city lord and mother's clan.' Luo Tu thought hard when finally an old memory appeared. "Cao… Cao Clan!" he said out loud.
"So you finally remembered it, I thought you would never remember your old slave." The attacker spoke and revealed his face.
The cloak lifted from his head, displaying his face. It was covered with scars and one of his ears was missing as well.
"Cao Tianyi!" Luo Tu recognized his attacker. "I never thought you would still be alive. I had thought that breaking your bones and ripping your meridians would have been enough to end you."
"Humph! As if!" Cao Tianyi said with anger. "Your clan pushed mine into the brink of destruction. And as if that was not enough, you bought several of our members as servants! The humiliation we suffered… the pain…"
It was evident that the grudge between Cao Tianyi and Luo Tu was deep.
"But despite all that, I didn't mind it. I had accepted my fate." Cao Tianyi said, much to Luo Tu's surprise. "But then, in all my despair, I saw a shining star. Young Miss Su Xian helped me several times, even going far as to repair my body after you had crippled me. But then you… You violated her! Broke her!"
Luo Tu was lost at first, but upon hearing all this, a look of ridiculousness appeared on his face.Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
"Su Xian!? THAT BITCH SU XIAN!? AHAHAHA!" The man burst out laughing. "I get it now. What 'your' woman? She's been dead for years! You never even got to touch her! Seems like just one sided love between a servant and a slightly higher whore." Luo Tu didn't hold his tongue at all.
"You! YOU!" Cao Tianyi was absolutely furious now.
"What? Do you think you can do anything?" Luo Tu mocked. "It's too late!" at that moment, he spread his arms apart.
"DETONATE!" Luo Tu ordered as the three remaining shields flew out in the distance.
There they came in contact with the barrier that had been blocking everything. And when they touched it, they directly exploded!
~KABOOM~
The explosion was more powerful than any attack that had been executed so far. Cao Tianyi was forced to defend using a lifesaving defensive talisman while Luo Tu's remaining defensive talisman barrier also broke apart.
There was still one casualty though; the Beast Driver of Luo Tu had not survived.
The damage to the area was extensive, and most of the buildings had collapsed.
"Time to end this farce," Luo Tu raised his crescent spear and thrust toward as a large spear imprint formed.
It rushed towards Cao Tianyi, but the man forcefully dodged it, letting it strike a building.
But before it could strike it though, it was as if a boulder had appeared!
"Enough." A new voice spoke.
