Chapter 256: Chapter 255: Design_1
“`
The fight between Bald Tuo and Mo Shan at the edge of the woods continued.
Bald Tuo could neither beat nor escape him and initially thought his life would soon end.
But after a few more rounds, he unexpectedly discovered that the Monster Hunter was not actually trying to kill him.
The cultivator hiding in the shadows, who was casting those strange spells, only used confinent techniques to keep him there, never any lethal spells to take his life.
It seed these two n had no intention of killing him.
Bald Tuo breathed a sigh of relief, only to feel a surge of sha and anger right after.
They were toying with him!
Neither killing him nor letting him go, they were like hunters amusing themselves with their catch.
It was utter mockery and humiliation!
“This is simply outrageous!” Bald Tuo shouted angrily.
Bald Tuo didn’t want to sit around waiting for death; he kept using runes and pretending to be defeated, trying every way he could to seize an opportunity to escape.
But no matter how many chances he sought to flee, in the end, he would always be frozen in place by the Water Prison Technique, and all his efforts would vanish in an instant.
In front of Mo Hua’s Water Prison Technique, all his sches were futile.
Bald Tuo was both shocked and furious.
Who was that hidden cultivator, anyway?
Every single move he made was under their control, leaving him with no chance of escape.
Amidst his shock and anger, Bald Tuo was bewildered:
“At this point, why don’t these two just kill ? What exactly do they want to do?”
After entangling with Mo Shan for a long ti, Bald Tuo caught a glimpse of two figures approaching from afar, Zhang Lan and Lu Hui.
Bald Tuo’s heart sank even further:
“It’s over, now there’s no chance of escape.”
In the woods, Mo Hua’s eyes also brightened.
Practicing trapping soone like Bald Tuo with the Water Prison Technique several tis, he had gradually beco proficient, and now he even found it sowhat boring.
Playing cat and mouse can get tedious after a while.
What he was waiting for was Lu Hui, and now, the prey had finally arrived.
Mo Hua slightly smiled.
Zhang Lan and Lu Hui had been searching the mountains for a while, and seeing Mo Shan engaged with Bald Tuo now, both of them were invigorated, hastening their movent techniques, and with a few flashes, they had rushed over.
The three n ford a triangular formation and surrounded Bald Tuo.
Bald Tuo, despairing, burst out angrily:
“You bunch of dogs for the Taoist Court, must you pursue to a bitter end?”
Zhang Lan cursed, “Isn’t that obvious? You beast, you should’ve been dead long ago!”
Bald Tuo’s face twitched.
Lu Hui’s gaze sharpened, and he asked, “Bald Tuo, tell , was it you who abducted the Young Master of the Kong Family?”
Bald Tuo frowned, “What Young Master of the Kong Family?”
“Half a month ago, did you raid a rchant caravan?”
“I’ve raided so many caravans, how would I know which one you’re talking about?”
Lu Hui’s eyelids twitched, “Then let
ask you another question, what did you do with the cultivators after robbing the caravans?”
Bald Tuo’s mouth twisted into a sinister smile, “That depends on whether they were n or won. n were killed on the spot, and won… after having so fun, then they were killed.”
Things had co to this point; he couldn’t escape anyway.
The cris he committed, once at the Taoist Court, ant death, so there was nothing to hide.
Lu Hui’s heart sank; if that was the case, then Young Master Kong was probably confusedly killed by Bald Tuo, not even having a chance to reveal his identity.
Zhang Lan then said, “Let’s act, capture him and take him back to the Taoist Court for questioning.”
Having said that, he ford the Water Sword Technique with his fingers, no longer wasting words, and directly attacked Bald Tuo.
Lu Hui also drew his sword, thrusting at Bald Tuo’s heart.

Mo Shan’s eyes flashed as he rembered Mo Hua’s instructions. When it was ti to act, he feigned physical exhaustion and delayed his strike by a mont.
The encirclent of the three n faltered in an instant because of Mo Shan’s delay, creating a flaw.
Bald Tuo, with his rich experience in fighting to the death, captured this flaw in the blink of an eye, his expression filled with wild joy.
He was certain he would die this ti, and even if he didn’t die, he would be captured by the Taoist Court, but to his surprise, at the mont of despair, Mo Shan’s slip-up gave him a glimr of hope.
Bald Tuo dodged Zhang Lan’s Water Sword Technique, exchanged a blow with Lu Hui, and then used the montum to retreat. He spotted the flaw between the three n and desperately used the Wind Escape Skill. With a flash, he broke through their encirclent.
The Bald Tuo, having broken out, still didn’t feel safe.
He was afraid that a hidden cultivator would use a spell to trap him.
But then he realized that the cultivator hiding in the shadows didn’t take action or cast that strange spell!
“What a chance!”
Bald Tuo was overjoyed, a gleam flashed in his eyes, he ran with all his might, wind swirling around him, leaving a trail of afterimages behind him.
Lu Hui made a disdainful “tsk” sound as he glanced at Mo Shan, then deployed his movent technique and chased after Bald Tuo.
Bald Tuo had killed Young Master Kong, so they couldn’t let him get away.
Zhang Lan looked at Mo Shan with so confusion.
In his experience, Mo Shan, a veteran of a hundred battles, would not make such a basic error.
Then he saw Mo Shan give him a look and subtly glanced at Lu Hui, who was moving away.
Zhang Lan was taken aback for a mont, then slowly caught on, a sly smile playing on his lips.
At the sa ti, Mo Hua erged from the woods.
The three exchanged glances, all understanding each other’s intentions. Then they each moved swiftly, chasing after Bald Tuo and Lu Hui.
Lu Hui, who was using all his effort to sprint, cursed continuously in his heart.
“Three n surrounded this Bald Tuo, yet they let him escape. These Monster Hunters are truly foolish beyond asure.”
However, this was also fine. As long as he caught up with Bald Tuo first and managed to control him or kill him directly, the rit for this task would be his.
Not only would he have completed the Taoist Court’s mission, but he would also have avenged Young Master Kong.
The rewards from the Taoist Court went without saying, and the Kong Family would also owe him a favor, and the benefits would not be small.
With his heart set ablaze with desire, Lu Hui chased after Bald Tuo with even greater effort.
However, Mo Hua and the others rely trailed behind at a distance, neither moving in to join Lu Hui nor allowing Bald Tuo to get away.
If Lu Hui were to lose the trail, Mo Hua would kindly allow Zhang Lan to guide him.
With Mo Hua’s Divine Sense locked on, there was no way for Bald Tuo to escape.
And so, Lu Hui and Bald Tuo continued their pursuit and escape.
After more than half an hour, Lu Hui finally caught up with Bald Tuo and engaged in a fight to the death with him.
Mo Hua and the others stopped at a distance and did not approach.
Bald Tuo, having struggled against Mo Shan and then run with all his might, was now at the end of his strength.
Lu Hui had also consud a lot of Spiritual Power, but he was much better off than Bald Tuo.
However, he was puzzled as to why Bald Tuo, with his excellent movent techniques, had not been able to escape.
But he didn’t have ti to ponder these things; he needed to capture Bald Tuo as soon as possible.
After more than a dozen rounds of all-out fighting, the victor slowly erged.
Lu Hui’s sword pierced Bald Tuo’s shoulder.
Bald Tuo knelt on the ground, knowing he couldn’t hold on any longer and filled with unwillingness, so he angrily drew his knife and slashed toward Lu Hui’s chest.
But he knew in his heart that he was too exhausted from the long fight, that his knife was slow, and that he would surely not hit Lu Hui.
Lu Hui sneered in contempt.
Bald Tuo’s knife posed no threat; he just needed to step back to avoid it unscathed.
Lu Hui was about to step back when he didn’t notice a cold light flash in Mo Hua’s eyes from afar. She moved her hand slightly, and chains of Spiritual Power suddenly appeared, locking him in place!
Lu Hui, halfway through stepping back, realized he was paralyzed and was terrified in an instant!
Before he could regain his composure, Bald Tuo’s knife had chopped onto his chest.
The knife broke through the soft armor in front of his chest, and the blade cut into his torso, blood spraying forth in an instant.
