Chapter 8 I'm waiting for the blood, what are you waiting for?
"The imperial court has no say in all this."
Yun Hezi gave a casual reply.
He didn't really know much about the affairs of the imperial court, so naturally he couldn't answer.
Lin Xuan nodded the snake's head, feigning acceptance of instruction, but in reality, he was frantically circulating the Black Water Profound Yin Technique.
After such a long time, he finally managed to restore his health to a safe level.
Lin Xuan's pressure suddenly decreased significantly, and he began to consider how to deal with Yun Hezi.
While the idiom "feigning compliance" is useful, it cannot be used indefinitely and will eventually become ineffective.
This damned Taoist priest launched a shameless sneak attack right from the start, clearly not intending to give me a way out.
If he hadn't devoured the Wild Boar King and acquired the talent of having copper skin and iron bones, he would probably have died long ago.
Lin Xuan began to ponder to himself.
Actually, to be honest, he wasn't a monster without a background; Bai Suzhen even recognized him as her younger brother.
However, Bai Suzhen was, after all, just a demon cultivator from the snake clan, and her reputation was not well-known. This Taoist priest might not have any reservations about her.
Since that's the case, then the only option is to kill the Taoist priest!
But how do you kill him?
Lin Xuan narrowed his eyes, then suddenly spoke, addressing Yun Hezi in the sky with great seriousness:
"Master, it seems this truly is a misunderstanding!"
"You may not know this, but when I first came into this world, I was in danger. Fortunately, a kind passerby came to my rescue. He risked his life to save me."
"That's why I've always had a good impression of the human race. When I saw those bandits committing all sorts of evil deeds, I took action to wipe them out. I never expected that I would offend the prefect."
Lin Xuan spoke these words with complete candor, as if they were the truth.
Lin Xuan encountered the farmer right after he transmigrated. Although the farmer had ill intentions, he still picked Lin Xuan up from the snow.
That's how I saved him!
As for the farmers' selflessness, that's also true.
The warm-hearted farmer has turned into a cold experience.
Upon hearing Lin Xuan's words, Yun Hezi couldn't help but feel puzzled and asked in return:
"Why are you telling me these things?"
Lin Xuan flicked his tongue and emerged from the river. He activated his Wind Control skill and, taking advantage of the strong wind on the river, slowly floated up.
Xiang Yunhezi slowly approached.
Many people on the river saw this scene and were terrified.
Many old boatmen knelt down and kowtowed, shouting that the Dragon King had appeared.
As for the literati, they were all excited and swaying their heads, reciting poems and composing couplets.
Lin Xuan ignored all of this and said to Yun Hezi:
"Master, since it's all a misunderstanding, there's still room for negotiation."
"Please take me back to the prefectural city to meet with Prefect Liu and have a clear explanation with him."
As Yun Hezi watched Lin Xuan approach, a sense of vigilance arose in his heart, but he quickly shook his head and smiled, realizing that he had been far too cautious.
This black dragon just took a sword strike from me; how could it possibly recover so easily?
It seems that the black dragon was truly desperate, and because it had received kindness from the human race in the past, it was so naive.
But it's all good that the black dragon came close without any warning; that's actually a good thing!
Once it gets really close, I'll use my skills to capture it completely, head and tail intact.
Yun Hezi examined the black scales on Lin Xuan's body and began to fantasize.
After killing Lin Xuan, not only should we skin him and remove his tendons, but we also shouldn't waste his scales, as they can be used to forge a protective magic weapon.
Lin Xuan saw through Yun Hezi's thoughts and immediately thought of the farmer, so he couldn't help but sneer.
"Heh, another idiot!"
That's how the farmer felt back then; he thought everything was under his control, so he gave Lin Xuan the opportunity.
Yun Hezi is the same now. He thinks he is seriously injured and can't make a fuss, which is why he feels safe letting Yun Hezi get close.
Yun Hezi is at a very high level, level 30, and his combat power far exceeds that of Lin Xuan.
Even if Lin Xuan fully recovers his health and faces Yun Hezi head-on, it will still be difficult for him to win.
But Yun Hezi was, after all, just a Taoist priest.
Unlike the bandits Lin Xuan killed last night, Yun Hezi had never honed his physical body.
If Lin Xuan gets close, Yun Hezi will be at a disadvantage.
In the game's parlance, Yun Hezi is a mage with high attack but low defense.
"I'll have to be more careful from now on, lest I make the same stupid mistake as them! But since I have the system's support and can see other people's health bars, I don't need to worry too much."
"Besides, I already knew all about those powerful figures with names and identities."
Lin Xuan suppressed his other thoughts and deliberately put on a harmless appearance.
His entire snake face was filled with trust in the human race.
Yun Hezi became increasingly relieved, thinking to himself that it was no wonder the black dragon was acting strangely; it was probably too stupid and had been tricked by someone before.
This is actually a good thing for me; my luck has truly arrived!
Yun Hezi was excited, but pretended to be calm and said:
"Alright, since you really intend to, then hurry up and come closer."
Lin Xuan nodded silently, said no more, and continued to float slowly upwards.
It wasn't that he was pretending on purpose; rather, he wasn't a real dragon and couldn't fly at all, only moving with the wind.
However, this made it seem as if Lin Xuan's injuries were severe and he had not recovered at all, causing Yun Hezi to completely lower his guard.
Finally, Lin Xuan arrived at a distance of about ten feet in front of Yun Hezi. After confirming that Yun Hezi had not used any protective magic, he finally stopped pretending.
"You damn bastard, I'm waiting to regenerate my health, what are you waiting for?"
Before he finished speaking, Lin Xuan's snake tail suddenly lashed backward, striking the air and producing a loud whooshing sound.
Using the force of the recoil, Lin Xuan rushed to Yun Hezi's side, opened his blood-red maw, revealing sharp, serpentine fangs, and bit towards Yun Hezi's heart.
Yun Hezi's expression changed drastically. Unable to dodge in time, Lin Xuan bit off a large chunk of flesh, causing him to feel dizzy from the pain.
He had already suffered a fierce blow from Lin Xuan, and his qi and blood were unstable. Now, hearing such shameless words, he finally couldn't hold back and vomited blood in anger.
"You beast! You were clearly stalling for time on purpose, how did it become me giving you a chance?"
"You wicked beast, I will kill you today!"
Yun Hezi took out a bottle of pills from his storage bag, poured them into his mouth, and tried to use the medicinal power to heal his injuries.
But Lin Xuan would never give him that chance.
If Yun Hezi manages to regain his footing and widen the distance, then things will get complicated!
Lin Xuan didn't give Yun Hezi a chance. He twitched his tail again and charged at Yun Hezi, coiling his entire body around Yun Hezi and using all his strength to contract his body.
[Death Coil!]
Yun Hezi was shocked and hurriedly summoned his sword, unleashing his sword energy in an attempt to cleave Lin Xuan's body in two.
When faced with a life-or-death situation, he no longer cared about protecting his scales.
Lin Xuan knew his limits, and even though he was bleeding profusely from the sword energy and his armor was shattered, he did not relax at all.
This is a blood transfusion with Yun Hezi!
As time went on, Lin Xuan's health dropped rapidly, but Yun Hezi's health dropped even faster.
After a dozen or so breaths, the light in Yun Hezi's eyes gradually dimmed.
