Who could have imagined such a situation now? The alchemy competition has turned into a wasteland, and the headmaster has fallen before the enemy, not to mention...
"Li Rui, I'm going to kill you!" It was unclear who shouted this, but soon a knife was heard, about to reach Li Rui's throat!
However, this startled him greatly, and he kept dodging! It seemed as if someone was inciting them; many people launched fierce attacks against Li Rui.
Of course, he was outnumbered and could only "run away"!
"Ruxi, Ruo Xin! Let's go." With a whoosh, he disappeared from the spot. The speed of a True Immortal at the eighth level is not to be underestimated, and it was far beyond that of an ordinary True Immortal at the eighth level!
Mo Ruxi had already made the worst-case plan for their escape route without any mistakes. The three quickly reached a secluded place surrounded by mountains and water, with not a single house in sight—only a cliff that could barely accommodate three people.
"What just happened?" Mo Ruxi asked repeatedly. Her brows were tightly furrowed; suddenly another Li Rui appeared, and his strength was shockingly abnormal.
"I don't really understand either. The moment I encountered the Mica Stone, my eyes just closed, and then I wanted to go higher, but who knew I would run into a fake!"
"And then? What happened next?" Mo Ruxi pressed on, but at that moment, Li Rui's mind felt a bit hazy, sensing some danger around them.
A whoosh of wind approached gradually.
Just as Mo Ruxi was about to say something, a hand suddenly grabbed her shoulder from behind. At first, she thought it was Ruo Xin playing around.
"Are you with me?" Who would have thought such a question would be asked at this time?
Li Rui furrowed his brows again; he never expected such an operation. What on earth is happening...
A fist suddenly appeared before Li Rui. The sound of "bang bang bang" echoed like explosions as it struck his face. At that moment, his body was already pressed against the mountain; sinking into the ground made any movement a luxury, let alone standing up.
That suffocating feeling couldn't be described in words.
"You..." Mo Ruxi was about to speak when the fake directly grabbed her throat and yanked her down to the ground.
Li Rui was furious; he felt utterly helpless and harbored a belief deep within him.
"I need power; whoever can give me power..." Watching Mo Ruxi and Ruo Xin being beaten like this truly frustrated him.
Within three breaths, the fake grabbed Mo Ruxi with his left hand and Ruo Xin with his right hand and brought them before Li Rui.
"You kneel down, and I'll let them go," the latter couldn't help but ask.
At that moment, Li Rui felt an impulse to kneel. Someone had once told him that he should never kneel to anyone—no one at all! Moreover, kneeling like this could affect his martial arts path!
"Goodbye, perhaps I won't be able to stay with you anymore," Ruo Xin said, her heart suddenly hardened.
As soon as she finished speaking, she bit her tongue, and bright red blood flowed from her mouth. At that moment, Li Rui realized just how desperate he was.
Suddenly, a force surged from the ground, and he threw a punch at the impostor's face!
"That feels great! It's been so long since I've experienced such a fight; it's so exhilarating!" Facing Li Rui's relentless punches, the impostor seemed utterly fearless; everything felt so surreal.
Mo Ruxi fell to the ground, watching this scene unfold with a heavy heart. Who could have imagined it would turn out like this?
"Are you done hitting me?" the impostor couldn't help but ask.
Li Rui forced a bitter smile. What did that question even mean? He couldn't protect his own wife; what was the point of living in this world? Before anything else, he had to avenge his wife's death.
"I don't want to know anything about you; just understand that from now on, I am you! And you can only live in my world! Hahaha."
At this moment, Li Rui continued to rain down punches on the impostor's head! He didn't even know how many punches he had thrown; the anger in his heart wouldn't calm down. The distance now felt like it was ten feet deep!
But the impostor showed no signs of injury; instead, he looked as if he were thoroughly enjoying it.
"It's over!"
With that statement, the impostor extended his right hand again, and a red sphere appeared in his palm. Suddenly, the entire valley fell silent.
Mo Ruxi's eyes were filled with tears; her cultivation level was still too weak. She wanted to rush forward but found herself powerless to do anything.
She was probably just adding trouble for Li Rui.
The ten-foot red sphere gradually rose and continued to grow larger—truly…
Twenty feet, fifty feet… one hundred feet. Suddenly, amidst a loud laugh, it stopped.
Li Rui felt incredibly small before this fireball; suddenly, he sensed that his world was becoming very bleak, as if he were about to face the baptism of death at that moment.
"I have to leave first, you..." The latter looked back at Mo Ruxi and couldn't help but send a voice transmission.
Not knowing what he should say, in the following moments, Li Rui suddenly jumped up to meet the red ball and accept the reaper's baptism.
"Don't!" Mo Ruxi repeatedly exclaimed, her face already streaked with tears as she stumbled to keep up with Li Rui's pace, seemingly about to...
There was just a distance of five zhang left, and Li Rui was about to collide with the fireball.
Strangely enough, the impostor had fallen silent, standing there in a daze, completely unaware of what he was thinking, and he started to cry.
This...
At this moment, Li Rui did not notice this detail. The three sharp blades of the curved knife had already revealed themselves. Although he felt unwilling, if he was to die, it must be a spectacular exit!
There was still one zhang, five meters... one meter, and Li Rui was about to touch the fireball.
A voice from behind shouted "Don't," but it was already too late.
