Chapter 141 Shaking off the Pursuit

This scene caught Kuang Zheng's eye, and a barely perceptible sly smile appeared on his lips.

An attack fueled by rage is not very threatening to the enemy, except for being mentally taxing.

Kuang Zheng seemed to handle the onslaught of attacks with ease, his agile movements dodging left and right, easily avoiding each deadly strike.

Looking at Zhu Wu, who was nearing the end of his life, a triumphant smile suddenly flashed in Kuang Zheng's eyes, but it vanished in an instant, and he quickly returned to normal.

After successfully dodging another attack, Kuang Zheng turned to look at the Candle Flame Beast with a wisp of golden beard beside him and teased with a grin, "Judging from your appearance, you must be called Candle Pattern, right?"

Hehe, this is really quite interesting! One is named Zhuwu, the other Zhuwen, one scholar and one warrior, they complement each other perfectly. Even when they get shameless, their teamwork is flawless! Hahahaha…”

The Candle Flame Beast was already seething with anger because of Kuang Zheng's provocation, and now, hearing Kuang Zheng's wild guesses and unrestrained mockery of its name, it was even more furious.

He retorted in a gruff voice, "Bullshit! I am Zhu Zhu, and I do not change my name or surname!"

Upon hearing this, Kuang Zheng was slightly taken aback at first, then burst into laughter as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world: "What? Zhuzhu? Hahahaha... I thought it was 'Piggy'! This name is so funny! What a great name!! Hahahaha..."

When Zhu Zhu heard that Kuang Zheng had deliberately misinterpreted his name, his anger reached its peak.

It roared through gritted teeth, "It's Zhuzhu! Not Zhuzhu! Are you deaf?! You're really making me furious!"

As he spoke, his attacks became increasingly fierce, each move accompanied by the sound of wind breaking, as if it were tearing through the air.

At this moment, they, like Kuang Zheng, were simply clinging to their last breath.

The continuous and fierce attacks caused their energy to drain away rapidly, like water flowing from a burst dam, until they were almost completely depleted.

Just then, Kuang Zheng, seeing that the situation was not good, hurriedly took out three extremely precious Spirit Nourishing Pills from his pocket and threw them into his mouth without hesitation.

In an instant, an incomparably powerful spiritual energy, like a surging torrent, instantly filled his limbs and bones.

However, this sudden surge of spiritual energy was like a double-edged sword.

The body, which was already nearly exhausted, was suddenly struck by such a huge amount of spiritual energy and almost couldn't hold on.

Kuang Zheng felt a sudden darkness before his eyes, and his body swayed precariously, almost falling from mid-air.

Fortunately, with his strong willpower, he gritted his teeth and desperately tried to stabilize his body.

Although he managed to control his body, the uncontrollable spiritual energy surging through his body still made his face turn bright red, like a ripe apple.

However, with the external force provided by these three Spirit Nourishing Pills, his nearly depleted spiritual energy finally stopped its decline and gradually recovered.

Meanwhile, the Zhuwu brothers on the other side were completely unable to hold on; at this moment, they didn't even have the strength to attack.

It could only float in the air with difficulty, panting heavily without any regard for its image, still retaining the ruthlessness it had at the beginning?

Only then did Kuang Zheng reveal a triumphant smile on his face.

He said fiercely, "I will remember this grudge forever, and I will repay it tenfold in the future! We'll see!"

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly gathered his breath and sped away like lightning, fleeing rapidly into the distance.

In the blink of an eye, his figure disappeared into the distant horizon.

Upon seeing this, the Zhu brothers secretly realized that things were not going well. How could they just watch the duck that was about to be eaten fly away?

The two exchanged a glance, understood each other perfectly, and then leaped into the air together.

However, due to the excessive exertion they had previously expended, their bodies were already exhausted.

As soon as they stood up, the two brothers stumbled and almost fell to the ground.

But the two of them couldn't care less about anything else, and they endured the discomfort and continued to exert themselves.

It was only then that they realized with horror that the energy in their bodies was almost completely depleted.

At this point, even if they wanted to continue the pursuit, they were clearly willing but unable to do so!

Only at this moment did the two beasts seem to wake from a dream, and they shouted at the top of their lungs, "We've been tricked!"

It turns out that from the very beginning, Kuang Zheng was fully capable of keeping these two people close to his beast and escaping.

Although he was burdened by Wu Ren and Ying Yue, with his initial stage of Heartbeat Realm strength, it wouldn't be difficult for him to escape when fighting against an opponent of the same level.

After all, the opponent's strength was equivalent to the peak of the late stage of the Heartbeat Realm.

However, the difference in strength between the two sides was not as great as the difference between him and Ling Qi. Although he could not win, escaping would not be a problem.

After all, a showdown and an escape are two completely different things!

Because of a previous experience of being cornered – being relentlessly pursued by the enemy until there was nowhere left to go!

Therefore, after careful consideration, Kuang Zheng resolutely chose a more dangerous but relatively safer strategy this time.

That is to engage in hit-and-run tactics with the enemy while exhausting their manpower as much as possible.

While cleverly retreating step by step, they gradually exhausted the enemy's strength.

Once the enemy is exhausted, he can escape the place without any worries.

Otherwise, with the enemy always at full strength, there's a risk of being caught up again even if you temporarily escape.

It should be noted that the opponent's strength is no weaker than their own, and they can catch up by relying on their own aura.

If they were surrounded and encircled again, the idea of ​​escaping with two more unconscious soldiers would be a pipe dream.

With his comrades wounded and himself utterly exhausted, he could no longer endure any more hardship.

Therefore, in order to successfully seize this crucial opportunity to escape, Kuang Zheng decided to take a gamble and try his luck.

Thus began a thrilling chase.

Fortunately, the Zhuwu brothers seemed to be a bit dim-witted and failed to see through Kuang Zheng's carefully designed scheme, ultimately allowing Kuang Zheng to achieve his goal.

When Kuang Zheng keenly realized that the two beasts' energy had been almost completely depleted, he did not hesitate to take out the Spirit Nourishing Pill from his Dragon Ring.

At this point, some readers may have questions.

Faced with such an excellent opportunity to counterattack, why didn't Kuang Zheng seize the chance to launch a counter-offensive and defeat the opponent?

This is not because Kuang Zheng is soft-hearted, but because he no longer has the ability to fight back.

It should be noted that although Zhuwu did expend a lot of energy after the intense chase,

However, these are merely energy losses; the body does not suffer any substantial damage.

In comparison, correction is more costly.

Not only did he overexert his spiritual energy, but the initial exchange had already caused him substantial damage.

Under these circumstances, even though he had a pill that could quickly restore some spiritual energy, Kuang Zheng knew very well that he was no match for the Zhu Wu brothers in his current state.

Left with no other choice, Kuang Zheng fled as quickly as possible to avoid any unforeseen complications.

As his figure receded into the distance, the Zhuwu brothers realized they had been tricked.

But it was too late. The immense exhaustion had temporarily robbed them of their ability to pursue; they could only watch helplessly as their prey vanished into the horizon...
