Chapter 729: Chapter 719: Completely Dismantled

The blinding purple light sliced from the Fog Guide’s left waist to his right shoulder, and the building behind was cleaved in half along with him.

The remaining light continued unabated, disappearing from view...

The diagonally sliced building collapsed with a dull crash, the surrounding area engulfed in grey dust.

Cries and howls filled the air, countless people presumably buried beneath the rubble.

The Skin Monster emotionlessly rose to its feet, its horrifying left eyeball continuously exuding blood. Once the blood drained away, the shriveled eyeball turned into a stone-like material.

The move just used was one of the Skin Monster’s trump cards, sacrificing the vision in one eye for several days to achieve a nearly limitless cutting effect.

With the Skin Monster’s current state, the power was close to the extreme limit beneath the Catastrophe, and even if a Catastrophe Level were struck unawares, they would suffer some damage.

In the following days, that eye would be rendered useless, and its strength would also diminish.

However, all this was worth it. After eliminating the nuisance that was the True Sequence, it could methodically continue collecting the other fragments.

As long as one part returned, it could fill the void of the eye, and with a few more parts, its power would recover to a certain degree.

It’s been ’dead’ for two thousand years, and in that time, it’s forgotten much.

But there was one thing it remembered very clearly, it absolutely had to recover faster than a certain insect.

...And then, tear that insect into countless pieces!

Seeing the Fog Guide split in two, lifeless upon the ground, Gu Daoqing swallowed hard.

Now that the sudden True-order Master who’d come to help was also down for the count, what should he do?

Anyone with a brain could see the Skin Monster wasn’t going to let him go.

Put yourself in their shoes, if someone repeatedly threw feces at you, even getting it into your mouth, you wouldn’t let it slide either.

The Skin Monster, with its back to Gu Daoqing, suddenly turned its head 180 degrees to look at him with a dark expression, giving Gu Daoqing a startle.

"You... must die... and your ashes... scattered."

In the Skin Monster’s heart, Gu Daoqing was already dead. Dare to attack its immaculate divine body with such filth, and he would face its fury!

Gu Daoqing said with twitching lips, "When you’re out in the world, the most important thing is to keep the peace. How about I clean up for you?"

The Skin Monster sneered, quickly caught up with Gu Daoqing, grabbed his collar, and spread the skin from its hand onto Gu Daoqing, binding him tightly so he couldn’t move.

"You... should... taste this too."

The Skin Monster’s skin writhed, gathering the filth into a ball and then pressing it directly onto Gu Daoqing’s face.

Gu Daoqing finally got a taste of the disgust he’d been dishing out.

But such experiences were not unique to Gu Daoqing in his life of shame.

He wasn’t a war god; it wasn’t possible that he’d never lost before, and with his vile abilities, if he lost, the opponent wouldn’t let him off easy.

Seeing Gu Daoqing not only not in pain but somewhat enjoying it, the Skin Monster decided to increase its efforts.

Its skin began to stretch and relax continuously, the immense impact of its blows striking Gu Daoqing non-stop. In a few seconds, Gu Daoqing was battered and bleeding from every orifice, the filth on his face exacerbating his wounds.

Gu Daoqing now had the option to purify the wounds on his body, but the Skin Monster was joined to him. If he purified, the Skin Monster would be cleansed along with him.

Any sort of injury inflicted upon the Skin Monster that Wen Wen had so hard-won would be maximally healed, and this was something Gu Daoqing would rather die than witness.

The reason the Skin Monster didn’t kill only to torture was actually to force Gu Daoqing to use her cleansing ability, but the patience of the Skin Monster wasn’t limitless, and Gu Daoqing’s obstinate will to rather die than submit was starting to make it irritable.

"Go... die!"

The Skin Monster leaned into Gu Daoqing’s ear, prepared to emit a piercing scream. Once it cried out, the powerful sound waves would directly destroy Gu Daoqing’s brain.

Gu Daoqing sighed and closed his eyes.

To die like this was perhaps the destined end for a Demon Hunter.

Just then, a muddy blade light flashed before Gu Daoqing’s eyes, and the Skin Monster’s head flew off.

Its hollow head, like an empty leather bag, fell to the ground and immediately withered, the remaining hollow facial features eerily revealing a look of astonishment.

"Why... you..."

The figure holding the kitchen knife behind the Skin Monster was notably the Fog Guide who previously had sacrificed one eye to kill the Skin Monster!

This guy actually hadn’t died!

The Skin Monster hadn’t finished speaking when its head was stepped on by the Fog Guide.

"If you can’t speak clearly, drink some disinfectant to clear your throat; your gurgling makes me want to spit."

Then the Fog Guide, holding the Blade of Contamination that Wen Wen had deliberately let go when he was knocked away, kept vigorously slicing the Skin Monster’s body.

To deal with the kind of undead monster that could recover quickly, one had to be particularly ruthless—once gaining the upper hand, you couldn’t afford to give it time to recover.

The Fog Guide was inherently a level above Wen Wen in strength, and since it was a sneak attack, he easily chopped the Skin Monster into several pieces.

The Skin Monster hurriedly released Gu Daoqing’s body, trying to counter-attack, but by that time, it was already too late to begin retaliating.

The scattered hair and skin moved rapidly trying to come together, but the Fog Guide’s knife was faster; he swiftly cut the Skin Monster into smaller pieces than minced meat, dividing them into more than a dozen lumps and wrapped them with an unclear fog.

At this point, the previously imposing Skin Monster temporarily lost its ability to resist.

Gu Daoqing activated his cleansing ability; the filth on his face vanished instantly, but those ulcers would probably take some time to fully recover.

But at this moment, he didn’t let down his guard; instead, he watched the Fog Guide with a wary expression.

The origins of this guy were highly mysterious; so far they could be considered to have a common enemy, which is why they were able to cooperate against the adversary.

But now that enemy had been dealt with, and this mysteriously appearing guy had become a significant threat to Gu Daoqing.

The Fog Guide laughed and said, "You don’t have to worry about me, I was just passing by. If that guy hadn’t hit me while I was flying, I wouldn’t have come to help you."

But Gu Daoqing didn’t believe a word of the Fog Guide’s nonsensical talk.

He had seen what the Fog Guide looked like on the wanted posters issued by the Hunters Association.

If he remembered correctly, the Fog Guide should be the mysterious True-order Master who fought one against seven a month ago in the Golden Eagle District!

As for why a True-order Master who once fought against seven was now struggling against an ordinary True-order, Gu Daoqing also had thought of a reason for Wen Wen.

According to the Association’s intelligence, the Guide was seriously injured and was estimated to be unable to be active for a long period.

It was only natural for his strength to decline when coming out with serious injuries...
