Service Area in the Rain
Chen Ling arrived at the museum, and only a few dozen seconds had passed.
He witnessed the domain battle between Xiao Chunping and Nie Yu. During this process, it wasn't that he didn't want to step in to help Xiao Chunping, but rather he couldn't.
After all, he hadn't mastered a domain yet. Forcibly intervening in their domain battle would only add burden to Xiao Chunping. Once their domains disappeared, he entered the battlefield imdiately and caught the weak Xiao Chunping falling from the sky.
"You're going to hunt him down?" Xiao Chunping coughed up a few mouthfuls of fresh blood and imdiately shook her head.
"It's too dangerous... Even fighting at the sa Rank, the probability of the Path of the Actor winning against the Path of the Soldier is not high. What's more, even though I sealed his Rank, he is still Fourth Order and can mobilize part of his domain... Let him go."
"If I let him go, he'll co back to kill us sooner or later."
Chen Ling slowly stood up, cold glints flashing in his eyes as he looked in the direction Nie Yu fled. "He already knows this location, and he also knows your ability, Senior Xiao... No matter what, I cannot let him leave alive."
Rumble—!
Low thunder rumbled through the clouds. The originally continuous night rain seed to begin turning into a thunderstorm.
After settling Xiao Chunping and the other three, Chen Ling quickly stepped on the clouds and rose. A sar of apricot red blood at the corners of his eyes. From beneath the thunderclouds, he gazed in the direction Nie Yu fled, the bloody footprints on the ground clearly reflected in his pupils.
His figure blurred, and he sped after him at full speed under the pitch-black thunderclouds.
...
"Cough cough cough... Blegh..."
Trails of bloody footprints spread along the road. Nie Yu suddenly bent over, coughing large mouthfuls of black blood onto the ground. After resting for a long ti, he finally slowly straightened up.
A Hunting Knife was plunged into his chest, fresh blood continuously dripping down the hilt... Even so, Nie Yu didn't pull it out. Instead, he just left the knife in and staggered forward.
This wasn't to stop the bleeding, but only with the blade remaining in his body could he continue to precisely control the Razor Wires to clear the [Demon-Suppressing Blood Map] inside him.
"How could there be such an ability..."
Nie Yu never thought his assassination attempt this ti would be in such a sorry state. At Shennongjia, he originally thought this was a completely effortless eradication mission. But first, a Chen Ling inexplicably popped out and played him in circles, and then a terrifyingly strong Old Woman popped out. If he hadn't been ruthless enough to himself, he probably would have already died in that museum by now.
However, he had already morized the scents of Su Zhiwei and the others. Once his injuries recovered, he could quickly continue to hunt them down... As for that Old Woman, her consumption this ti must not be light either. Given her age, it probably wouldn't be that easy for her to recover to her peak state.
Nie Yu panted heavily. The icy thunderstorm rained down harder and harder, washing the bloody water off his body, flowing gurgling to both sides of the road...
"No... I can't go on like this."
Nie Yu suddenly seed to rember sothing and abruptly looked back. He saw a path full of bloodstains extending all the way to his feet. That was the fresh blood he shed when he ca.
Su Zhiwei and the other man were already unconscious, and the Old Woman's consumption was massive, so they definitely couldn't pursue... But Nie Yu clearly rembered that when he opened the [Wild Hunting Ground], he saw that Chen Ling had also arrived at the museum!
If Chen Ling wanted to kill him, now was absolutely the best opportunity. He might have even already beco Chen Ling's "prey" now... But even if Nie Yu knew this, there was nothing he could do. After all, his injuries were too severe. He simply couldn't escape at full speed, and with every capillary all over his body oozing blood, it was impossible not to leave traces.
While staggering forward, Nie Yu's brain operated at high speed. His gaze swept the surroundings, as if searching for sothing.
"I can't continue advancing blindly like this... If he really pursues , I definitely have no advantage in speed. Rather than being hunted and consud to death in the wilderness, it's better to find a suitable location and launch a desperate counterattack..."
Nie Yu himself was a "Hunter." No one knew better than him how to kill severely injured prey. To a vicious wolf severely injured and on the verge of death, the best hunting thod was to shoot it from afar with a Hunting Rifle, forcing it to keep desperately moving forward and continuously consuming it. Especially in this kind of wilderness with a vast field of vision, as long as the Hunter was patient enough, he could entirely consu him to death without engaging in a life-or-death struggle.
Naturally, Nie Yu couldn't allow himself to beco "prey" to be toyed with. He wanted to hold his fate in his own hands... He wanted to find a place full of cover and have a life-or-death struggle with the pursuer!
Eventually, Nie Yu's gaze pierced through the rain curtain and landed on a seemingly out-of-service highway service area not far away.
This was the only place around this road that had a large amount of cover and an intricate layout. Because it was already abandoned, not a single light ca from inside. From afar, it looked like a Ghost City in the night rain.
Without hesitation, Nie Yu dragged his bloodstained body and walked towards the service area bit by bit.
A minute later,
A figure stepped through the void under the clouds.
"He hid inside the service area... Has he already realized I'm tracking him?" Chen Ling's apricot-red eyes looked at the bloody water on the ground extending all the way into the service area, his eyes narrowing slightly.
[Audience Expectation Value 2]
[Current Expectation Value: 54%]
As the bloody water on the ground interwove into two lines of characters, Chen Ling beca even more certain of this thought. He stared at this abandoned service area shrouded in darkness, deep in thought.
This service area occupied a large area. Looking down from the sky, besides the gas station and the main service area building, there was even a Comrcial Street and a food street, with dozens of shops large and small, and complete infrastructure... But Nie Yu's bloodstains completely disappeared after entering the Comrcial Street.
While he was observing the service area from the sky, Nie Yu was definitely also in so corner inside, staring at him.
At this mont, there was no longer any distinction between Hunter and prey. He and Nie Yu were both Hunters... or rather, they were both each other's prey.
"It's going to be a fierce battle again..." Chen Ling sighed in his heart. Then, as if he thought of sothing, a glimr flashed in the depths of his eyes.
A fierce battle... Hunter and prey... A battle crossing Ranks... A cornered beast's struggle...
Could it be...
[Under the witness of at least 2000 people, complete a soul-stirring murder Performance]
Chen Ling suddenly rembered his yet-to-be-completed Performance. For him, this was a risky Third Tier fighting against Fourth Order battle crossing Ranks. For Nie Yu, this was a desperate counterattack deciding life and death... With both sides tangling up to now, it was destined that only one person could walk out of here alive today. In a sense, it should be the most difficult battle Chen Ling had faced so far.
From this point of view, it should be able to satisfy the condition of "soul-stirring"... Then what about the witness of 2000 people?
Chen Ling frowned in thought in the rain. He didn't want to miss this excellent Performance opportunity before his eyes. After all, this kind of life-or-death slaughter wasn't sothing he could encounter at any ti, and he couldn't guarantee that he would definitely win... But right now, let alone 2000 people nearby, there wasn't even a single extra shadow. It simply couldn't satisfy the Performance requirent.
No... wait!
As if Chen Ling thought of sothing, he fished out his flip phone from his pocket. His gaze swept across this service area equipped with abandoned surveillance everywhere, and his eyes gradually lit up.
He almost forgot, in this era, the Audience... doesn't necessarily have to be at the scene.
