Chapter 743: Chapter 743: Falling into a trap

"Sorry, I’m in a hurry so I won’t stick around to play with you."

As he spoke, Li Wenli violently unleashed a Wind Blade from his hands.

Once the Wind Blade was released, it began reaping like a scythe cutting wheat, and the reinforcing Guards fell to the ground in response.

Seeing this, the Great Chief knew things were amiss and turned to flee.

Li Wenli’s Wind Blade followed closely behind.

However, Li Wenli had forgotten that this man carried a Stone Sword. His Wind Blade managed to slice through the man’s cloak, but it also cut open the Sword Scabbard.

Hence, the Stone Sword, which had been concealed by the Sword Scabbard, was revealed once again.

As the Wind Blade collided with the Stone Sword, it was restrained and dissipated into nothingness, prompting Li Wenli to slightly furrow his brow.

This is bad...

The man clearly sensed Li Wenli’s halted attack.

He looked back warily and saw the annoyance in the depths of Li Wenli’s eyes.

The Great Chief narrowed his eyes and thought for a moment before, unexpectedly, he chose not to flee but instead wielded the Stone Sword and counterattacked.

After all, he had observed hesitation in Li Wenli’s eyes. Did this suggest that Li Wenli’s Inner Strength was nearly depleted?

If that were the case, he couldn’t miss this opportunity!

Therefore, the Great Chief did not hesitate to turn back and entangle himself with the man.

Even though he wielded a Short Sword, he managed to force the man into continuous retreat.

Furthermore, the Great Chief keenly observed that the man might indeed have exhausted his Inner Strength. The earth-shattering, Ghost Gods-stirring Inner Strength was no longer present; now the man could only engage him in physical combat.

The Great Chief let out a triumphant laugh, "You’re as good as dead."

His own power was reserved, while this man’s Inner Strength was depleted. The victor seemed obvious.

"We’ll see about that," Li Wenli said with a smile, pointing his sword at the hem of the Cloak People’s severed cloak.

When masters engage, it’s a battle of wits and bravery, and finding the opponent’s weakness means winning half the battle.

For Li Wenli, what he feared was the Great Chief’s Weapon. Yet Li Wenli was well-concealed, and the Great Chief couldn’t see how his own weapon threatened Li Wenli.

For the Great Chief, he truly had concerns, which were not revealing his identity.

So, when Li Wenli’s sword tip targeted his cloak, directing every move to tear it, the Great Chief was taken aback and could only keep retreating to avoid the attacks.

Li Wenli’s lips curled into a provocative smile as he continued his provocation.

The two of them engaged in an intense cat-and-mouse game beneath the Stilted Building.

The surviving Guards above in the Stilted Building didn’t know what to do. They wanted to use the repeating crossbow cart to assist, but the two men’s fight was too close, leaving them unable to lend a hand.

The Great Chief finally realized that even without any Inner Strength, Li Wenli was still troublesome. He had no choice but to use cunning to lure him back into the cave.

Li Wenli, watching the Great Chief’s actions, naturally knew he was being drawn into an ambush.

But this was the best opportunity to get the Stone Dagger, an opportunity that might not come again.

So even though he knew there were traps ahead, he could only play along.

Once inside the cave, the Great Chief turned to the left.

Li Wenli glanced at it; this was the initial set of three paths. Before, he had chosen the middle, but now the Cloak People went to the left.

Li Wenli had no choice but to expand the map of the subsidiary dungeon in his mind.

After a chase, the cave suddenly opened up to reveal a huge abyss, and to their surprise, there was a glow a kilometer below.

It was lava.

Li Wenli raised an eyebrow. Was there an actual volcano here?

He carefully recalled the map of the Imperial Capital. Although the area around Humming Abyss had many hills, there was no record of a volcano.

Or was this an artificially excavated Earth vein?

What kind of fortune did these ancient people have to reach the magma layer?

Li Wenli was pondering seriously when he felt a palm wind strike from behind.
