"Cruel? Hearing Yu Wuxia's words, Ye Huan did not think that injuring an enemy was a cruel act. On the contrary, if Ye Huan had not dealt such a heavy blow to the Living Dead possessed by Hua Tuo, it might have been Ye Huan who was suffering from such injuries at this moment. After all, as a normal person, Ye Huan would not be foolish enough to sympathize with his enemies. Without even lifting his head, he spoke directly to Yu Wuxia, 'Cruel? I don't think it's cruel at all. Compared to the harm done to Hua Tuo, I would rather see him dead!'
'Haha, as expected of Ye Huan. If you want me dead, we'll see if you have the ability to do so.'
Having heard Ye Huan's words up close, the Living Dead possessed by Hua Tuo seemed not to feel any pain in its body. Instead of showing a hint of suffering on its face, it let out a hearty laugh. However, with its loud laughter, two chunks of flesh inevitably fell from its already grotesque face, which had been further marred by several bullets. This scene almost made Yu Wuxia vomit the elixirs he usually consumed. As for Ye Huan, he showed no significant reaction.
After all, having lived in the Twenty-First Century, Ye Huan had seen all sorts of terrifying things on television. Considering that he had also taken many lives since arriving in this world, it would be strange for him to react to the appearance of the Living Dead possessed by Hua Tuo.
'Hey, I may not have many skills, but I certainly know how to kick a dog when it's down.'
Not taking the Living Dead's provocation to heart, Ye Huan was unaware of why it still had the ability to fight despite being in such a state. However, given that reconciliation with Hua Tuo was no longer an option, he thought it better to take this opportunity to show Hua Tuo what he was capable of.
If he could use this chance to make Hua Tuo realize that trying to take the Summoning Book from him was akin to pulling teeth from a tiger's mouth, then surely Hua Tuo would think twice before causing trouble for Ye Huan in the future. This would undoubtedly be a good thing for Ye Huan.
Having made up his mind, while Hua Tuo had yet to make a move, Ye Huan focused his thoughts and commanded a large number of Arms to launch another attack targeting Hua Tuo.
'Who did I provoke? Why is this happening again?'
Never expecting Ye Huan to act without any hesitation at all, Yu Wuxia found himself becoming the biggest victim in this situation. On one hand, he had to guard against whether the explosions from the numerous Arms would cause collateral damage; if they affected flowers and plants it wouldn't be too bad, but if they harmed him directly that would be quite inappropriate. On the other hand, as someone who had always stood on the same front as Ye Huan—his 'comrade'—Yu Wuxia had to remain vigilant against the Living Dead possessed by Hua Tuo. After all, if the Living Dead could withstand the first wave of attacks from the Arms, who could guarantee that it wouldn't survive the second wave?
At that point, if the Living Dead managed to find a way around Ye Huan's attacks and sought revenge on Yu Wuxia instead, it could spell trouble.
Perhaps hearing Yu Wuxia's exclamation or thinking that Yu Wuxia was easier to bully than Ye Huan, after a round of attacks from the Arms concluded, a black shadow surged forth from the dust-filled underground passage and lunged straight at Yu Wuxia. In an instant, it appeared right before him without giving him any chance to react."
“Elder Yu, be careful!”
Ye Huan had long known that the Living Dead possessed by Hua Tuo would be difficult to defeat. Although Ye Huan had prepared backup plans, all his careful arrangements were aimed at countering the attacks from Hua Tuo’s Living Dead. Despite his meticulous calculations, Ye Huan never anticipated that the Living Dead would first attack Yu Wuxia. In a rush, all Ye Huan could do was shout a warning; he couldn't even control the various Arms to continue attacking the Living Dead.
It made sense, after all. Bullets and shells didn’t have eyes. Even though it was unlikely for Ye Huan to miss while manipulating the various Arms with his Divine Sense, weapons like the RPG Rocket Launcher would inevitably cause area damage. Ye Huan didn’t know if he could harm the Living Dead, but it was certain that Yu Wuxia would end up in a mess.
“Don’t… don’t worry about me… I’m fine. Just control your Arms and don’t shoot recklessly…”
In agreement with Ye Huan’s thoughts, Yu Wuxia understood the consequences of having those Arms aimed at him. Thus, in this situation, while hastily speaking to Ye Huan, he used the spell Shrink the Earth to an Inch to instantly leave his original position, exposing Hua Tuo’s Living Dead once again to Ye Huan’s view.
‘To attack or not to attack?’
Staring intently at the bloodied body of the Living Dead, Ye Huan questioned whether it was indeed a good opportunity to strike. However, given that there was only a short distance between him and Yu Wuxia, if all the Arms fired together, Ye Huan would likely be the first one affected.
“Ye Huan, what are you waiting for? This is a great opportunity!”
Noticing that Ye Huan seemed hesitant, and being an outsider not within the attack range of the Arms, Yu Wuxia shouted loudly at him, eager to stir things up. Fortunately, Ye Huan was too preoccupied to pay attention to Yu Wuxia. Otherwise, knowing Ye Huan’s temperament, he would have insisted on discussing things with Elder Yu.
Opportunities slipped away in an instant. As Ye Huan hesitated, the Living Dead possessed by Hua Tuo took advantage of its strength and quickly left its position. At this moment, not only did Ye Huan fail to grasp Hua Tuo’s intentions, but even Yu Wuxia was puzzled as to why the Living Dead was fixated on him. However, in order to save his own life, he had no choice but to use Shrink the Earth to an Inch once more.
Whoosh… whoosh… whoosh…
As the two figures darted back and forth in the cramped space, Ye Huan found himself becoming an idle observer. While Hua Tuo relentlessly pursued Yu Wuxia, he simply sat down on the ground like he had seen Yu Wuxia do earlier and echoed back what Yu Wuxia had said: “Elder Yu, what are you waiting for? This is such a great opportunity!”
"I do want to fight, but the question is, can I actually win?"
While continuously dodging the attacks from the Living Dead using Shrink the Earth to an Inch, Yu Wuxia helplessly spoke up, even taking a moment to roll his eyes at Ye Huan. However, despite his words, he knew very well that Ye Huan would eventually take action against the Living Dead possessed by Hua Tuo. What was lacking was just an opportunity—an opportunity to eliminate the Living Dead possessed by Hua Tuo in one fell swoop.
