The Metasequoia Courtyard wasplete with pavilions, towers, waterside pavilions, and flower ponds.
It was indeed a sweet spot suitable for a secret rendezvous.
In the current chaos of Nanjiang City, the Crimson me King was meeting his lover in such a secluded courtyard, setting a bad example of neglecting his duties.
Especially since the lover he was meeting was also the wife of another demon king.
Li Muyang, controlling Jiang Xiaoyu, sneaked into the courtyard and heard noisesing from inside the house, curling his lips in disdain.
“This Crimson me King sure knows how to enjoy himself…”
He heard the woman inside panting and saying in a trembling voice,
“…my husband seems to have noticed something. You…huff… hnng… you promised to take me away from here… When will we leave Nanjiang City?”
The Crimson me King’s voice was deep as he replied, “Soon…my beauty, I have everything prepared, just waiting for the right moment. Now that Fairy Yu has fallen, Nanjiang City will be in chaos.”“Everyone in the city is wary of each other, but no one is paying attention to the treasury. I’ll steal the two treasures from the treasury in a day or two.”
“With the protection of those two treasures, we can flee far away, safely traverse the wilderness, and have no worries about our lives.”
Then, a series of rapid and excited panting followed.n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om
This Crimson me King was nning to elope with his beauty and even steal the treasures from the Nanjiang City treasury… Li Muyang didn’t rush to act.
He waited until the noises inside had quieted down for a while, and after a series of rustling sounds, footsteps could be heard from inside.
“I’ll go back and deal with the others first. With the current unrest in the city, I can’t be away for too long. Rest for now, my beauty, and I’lle backter…hehe…”
Thecent Crimson me King stepped out the door, walking out while fastening his belt.
However, a shadow suddenly darted out from the side, attacking him directly.
【Enteringbat phase】
The moment the system prompt appeared, Li Muyang was once again engulfed by the darkness of the tide.
He re-entered the game, controlling the Wheel of Annihtion to strike at the Crimson me King.
【Crimson me King: …?!】
【Crimson me King: Who’s there!】
Li Muyang’s wheel transformed into a cold light flying towards the Crimson me King, and at the same time, his figure flickered, instantly moving to the front of the Crimson me King and unleashing a punch.
The immense force sent the unprepared Crimson me King flying.
【-669】
A small portion of the Crimson me King’s health bar was emptied.
Then the wheel whistled in, carving a deep gash in the Crimson me King’s back, blood spurting wildly.
【-1399】
Another chunk of the Crimson me King’s health bar was emptied.
【Crimson me King: Damn you!】
The enraged demon king struggled to his feet, revealing his true demonic form.
It was a giant rat with fiery red fur.
Its sharp fangs, ferocious face, and needle-like red hairs all over its body emitted a violent and irritable aura.
【Crimson me King: Who’s this little brat daring to ambush me!】
After transforming into the Crimson me Rat, the demon king roared and charged at Li Muyang.
However, Li Muyang was no longer the person he used to be. His experience of killing the Shape-shifter Master significantly improved hisbat skills.
The Crimson me Rat, engulfed in fierce mes, turned into a fireball and lunged at him.
In that instant, Li Muyang rolled away, activating the Remnant Clouds Movement Technique, and easily dodged the attack.
At the same time, he manipted the spinning wheel, striking the rat king amidst the mes again, inflicting 【-979】 damage.
【Crimson me King: Aaargh… I’ll kill you!】
The frenzied Crimson me Rat’s body shook violently, flinging out a dense shower of red needles that rained down on Li Muyang like a storm.
Li Muyang immediately used the Remnant Clouds Movement Technique to dodge, but he was still hit by several needles carrying the fire poison.
【-78】
【Fire Poison Status 97%】
After being hit by the needles, his health bar barely decreased, but a fire poison DEBUFF appeared in Li Muyang’s field of vision.
This debuff would deduct 25 health points per second for 60 seconds.
Seeing the Crimson me Rat in the courtyard shake its body again flinging out a bunch of fiery fur, Li Muyang hastily dodged.
“This rat’s fire poison is pretty fierce.”
Li Muyang’s health bar was now just over five thousand. And this fire poison could scorch over a thousand of his health points in a minute…
From a distance, he saw another dense rain of fiery furing his way. Li Muyang’s figure flickered as he continued to dodge.
Seeing Li Muyang forced to maintain a certain distance, the huge rat stopped flinging its fur.
It opened its narrow mouth full of sharp teeth and spewed out billowing fire smoke at Li Muyang.
In an instant, the courtyard was obscured by thick ck fire smoke. Within the smoke, it was nearly impossible to see anything in the distance.
Li Muyang, uncertain and rmed, found the fire smoke pungent and felt it weakened his perception.
Just as he was about to recall the spinning wheel, a massive shadow suddenly burst out from the side.
Using the cover of the smoke, the Crimson me King had easily crept up beside Li Muyang.
Caught off guard, Li Muyang was sent flying, his shoulder crushed and flesh mangled.
【-1299】
With that hit, the Crimson me King severely wounded Li Muyang.
“F*ck!”
Although there was no pain in the game, seeing his health bar decrease sharply, Li Muyang immediately controlled the spinning wheel to fly back and counterattack.
But as he directed the wheel towards the giant rat, the me rat shook its head again, spewing out thick fire smoke.
The red and ck smoke concealed the rat king’s figure, and Li Muyang lost sight of his target once more.
Back in the real world, Li Muyang opened his eyes, tiredly rubbing them.
“This Crimson me King’s fire smoke ability is really annoying.”
He had died four times in a row, unable to break through the Crimson me King’s fire smoke ability.
The smoke not only obscured his vision but also weakened his perception while the Crimson me King moved even faster within it.
He didn’t confront Li Muyang head-on. As soon as it forced Li Muyang to retreat, it would furiously spew fire smoke, engulfing the entire courtyard with thick smoke.
Then, it would hide within the smoke, striking Li Muyang with stealthy attacks.
Sneaky and shameless.
The Crimson me King, which looked like a reckless strongman, was actually like a rat that sneakily steals apanion’s wife and also fights in a sneaky manner…
Li Muyang shook his head.
After dying four times, Li Muyang was somewhat tired, so he stopped ying the game.
Mainly because he heard Guan Xiaoshun’s voice calling from outside.
“Brother Li! Dinner’s ready!”
Hearing the call, Li Muyang got up and responded, “Coming,ing, I’m on my way.”
From the four encounters just now, this Crimson me King didn’t seem very strong.
His body was bulky, his movements were not agile, and hecked long-range attack capabilities.
The skill of flinging its fiery fur had a wide range but was not very lethal, only the fire poison was troublesome.
This demon king would be utterly useless if it weren’t for the fire smoke ability.
But that fire smoke was somewhat unsolvable; once it blended into the smoke, Li Muyang would lose his target.
“I need to find a way to break through this fire smoke…”
Li Muyang pondered, searching for the demon king’s weakness.
The Crimson me King was different from the Shape-shifter Master. His attack pattern was very simple, just a straightforward three-trick pony. But breaking through these three tricks was indeed a bit difficult.<hr>
