Chapter 167: Chapter 167: Successful Ambush, Fourth Grade with a Broken Leg

But it only lasted a second before he snapped back to alertness.

The Triangular Shuriken in his hand thrusted sharply, immediately igniting a clash akin to golden war drums, sparking flames as the icy chill of the Death Demon Scythe brushed past his neck.

At the same time, he felt severe pain in his left shoulder.

The blade of the Death Demon Scythe embedded deeply into his arm, tugging at the hard bones as it cut through, though hindered by their toughness.

The chilling pain made Li Da instantly lose control over his entire left arm, which drooped under the force of gravity.

He endured this agony with a tenacity, his facial expression barely changing.

This resilience was part of his profession.

The Spirit Manipulation Energy inside his body stirred immediately, and the Triangular Shuriken in his hand created a blurry shadow, stabbing into the darkness at a specific direction with a ’whoosh whoosh whoosh’.

Its speed was so fast that it created multiple afterimages even in the darkness!

That direction was precisely where Xiao Zhan was.

Unfortunately, although his thrust direction was accurate, and his reaction speed extremely fast,

Xiao Zhan, having struck successfully, did not pause for even a moment, abandoning the chance to completely sever his arm with the Death Demon Scythe, opting instead to immediately retreat.

Such a decisive decision made Li Da involuntarily shudder.

Xiao Zhan’s combat style, unlike theirs, which was known for brute force and risking life, was entirely different.

Xiao Zhan behaved more like an assassin, attacking only once and retreating whether successful or not.

While his mind was unsettled,

suddenly, he felt a pair of eyes staring at him from the darkness.

A whirlpool spun in his Spiritual Sea, his consciousness in disarray.

It was a Spiritual Attack!

Xiao Zhan also has Spiritual Attack skills!

There was no mention of this in the information, damn it!

Completely unguarded, he had never expected Xiao Zhan to have such a hidden Spirit Manipulation Technique.

In a split second, his head spun dizzily as if he was about to faint.

But just then, an intense chill approached him again, tightening his heart, wanting to make a defensive move, but he found his hand couldn’t keep up with his reaction.

Or rather, it was not his hand lagging, but the transmission of thoughts in his brain was delayed.

As he forcefully suppressed that dizzy sensation, suddenly, his legs felt icy cold!

Looking down, he saw a blood-red Demon Scythe slicing between his legs!

It directly severed his legs!

The powerful Spirit Manipulation Energy surged, without the typical short-lived inertia that would stick his body and legs together.

Instead, blood splattered from the breaks, spurting like a hose under high pressure, blossoming into a blood-red flower amidst the dark Death Aura.

The next second, Li Da’s body lost balance and fell backwards, powerless to react, and with a thud, he heavily crashed onto the ground.

Yet, the intense pain didn’t cause Li Da to lose his reason; instead, he gripped the Triangular Shuriken tighter, his mind taut, completely focused, preventing any further attacks from Xiao Zhan.

However, he miscalculated again.

Having gained the upper hand, Xiao Zhan did not continue to attack; instead, he turned and ran without looking back.

His speed was overwhelming.

Just like he came quietly, he left quietly, waving his sleeves not taking any cloud with him.

Despite this, Li Da could not relax, Xiao Zhan’s capabilities had far exceeded the data, and he dared not be careless.

Only when the Death Aura completely dissipated, his tense spirit gradually calmed down.

The Artifact Spirit Triangular Shuriken in his hand immediately transformed into a valiant and tough woman.

"How could this happen, damn it!"

She immediately tore a piece of cloth from her clothing and used it to bind his severed leg, preventing excessive blood loss.

Then she took out some medicinal potions and made Li Da drink them.

These were the simplest hemostatic and disinfection potions.

Today, their main task was to capture people; they hadn’t anticipated so much, and in their haste to pursue Xiao Zhan during the emergency landing, they failed to bring many first aid items.

However, such simple and convenient potions were still carried with them.

But now that Li Da’s legs were broken, these potions alone couldn’t heal him. Li Da urgently needed medical attention, or he might lose his legs!

He swiftly took out the communication device he carried.

"Stop the chase, Xiao Zhan and Ye Youlong are in my direction, everyone converge here!"

His message was transmitted, and everyone stopped their respective pursuits, immediately figuring out the direction, and ran towards Li Da.

The person closest to him, who had just split from him, was the first to arrive.

But upon seeing this tragic scene, his face instantly took on a shocked expression.

"Captain, what happened? How did you get injured?"

He quickly took out some medicinal potions.

But Li Da stopped him, "It’s no use, the potions won’t heal the legs. Be extremely careful when you pursue Xiao Zhan, his strength far exceeds what the data suggested."

"He has also mastered a Spirit Manipulation Technique that can attack the Spiritual Sea. I was caught off guard by this skill, so be very cautious of this technique when chasing him!"

Hearing this, a chill went down his spine.

Xiao Zhan had indeed mastered a spiritual class Spirit Manipulation Technique, and even the captain took a loss against it!

He was only a Third Grade Spirit Master!

A Third Grade Spirit Master was able to injure a Fourth Grade Spirit Master to this extent!

This was simply unbelievable!

For a moment, as he looked in the direction Xiao Zhan had disappeared, his heart felt increasingly heavy.

He had originally thought that this was a risk-free pursuit, but he hadn’t expected not only a risk but an exceptional one at that!

"Captain, what should we do? Should I take you back?"

The support team wasn’t available; they could only receive treatment by returning to the aircraft.

But this was the Demon Beast Forest, where powerful Demon Beasts could be encountered at any time.

In Li Da’s current state, there was no way he could make it back alone.

"You don’t need to worry about me, I can manage on my own. You go and chase Xiao Zhan and the others, ahead lies the Twisted Jungle, you absolutely cannot let them enter it!"

"Captain..."

"Go now."

"Yes! Captain, be careful."

That person immediately set off.

Soon after he left, Huang Fei arrived with others.

Seeing the sorry state of Li Da, he couldn’t help but frown, "What happened?"

"The intel was wrong, he had hidden his strength."

Huang Fei looked at Li Da and after a silent pause of two seconds, he spoke to another person following him, "You take him back to the aircraft for treatment."

"Yes!"

This time Li Da didn’t refuse.

If he had insisted on having someone stay to look after himself just now, it would have been a selfish act. But now, it was Huang Fei’s decision; even though the outcome was the same, the person making the decision had changed.

He wouldn’t be accused of deserting in the face of the enemy.
