Chapter 528 – Slice

Li Huowang stared at the unfolding scene from the rafters. Then, he retrieved two eyeballs wrapped with Li Sui’s tentacles. “This Prince Ren is really playful.”

Prince Ren’s face lacked vitality, but it wasn’t apparent because he was wearing makeup. He was now on the bed together with the opera performer, who was singing and moving at the same time.

Li Huowang’s right hand turned slightly pale from excessive force as he listened to their vulgar words sung with a cadence. He would cover Li Sui’s ears if he could find them.

Li Huowang was ready; he was ready to strike the moment his target was at their most relaxed state.

“Ah~~Yi~~I see your heart~~~my dear~~~”

As the singing became more and more intense, thick, killing intent began to pervade Li Huowang’s eyes. He exerted force and flew downward with his sword in hand.

An afterimage of the spine sword in his hand was left as it made a beeline toward Prince Ren on the bed. Gêtt the latest ch𝒂pters on n𝒐/velbin(.)com

The spacetime rift that represented the Great Qi streaked across the air, which emitted a shrill cry as the rift traveled across it.

Just then, a transparent mosquito net made with thin metal wires suddenly appeared before Li Huowang.

Clearly, the mosquito net was Prince Ren’s countermeasure against an assassin. Unfortunately, it was useless against the rift, and it was cleanly severed.

The opera performer on the bed reacted faster than Prince Ren; her face turned pale from the shock.

“Master~!” She sang with a mournful tone and pushed Prince Ren off the bed with all her strength.

However, Li Huowang had also taken this into account and had deliberately extended the rift.

The opera performer and the fallen Prince Ren were severed in two by the rift; their blood spurted all over the ground, staining it.

It’s over just like that? Isn’t it too easy? Li Huowang thought he had succeeded, but a palm-sized yellow leather figure emerged from Prince Ren’s hair.

It dared not expand here and rushed outside for safety.

This Prince Ren still has that thing on him! Li Huowang gnashed his teeth and pulled out his sword before chasing after it.

As Li Huowang’s weapon was about to hit the fleeing Prince Ren, a large group of shadow puppets emerged from under the bed and grabbed Li Huowang’s shadow, immobilizing him.

Li Sui’s tentacles swiftly swung and extinguished the candles on both sides, which made the shadow puppets disappear.

Li Huowang regained his freedom. However, the palm-sized Prince Ren had finally expanded to a human’s size. However, his figure was still as thin as a sheet of paper.

White smoke spread rapidly from the wooden windows, accompanied by the rapid beating of gongs. The white smoke concealed Prince Ren’s thin figure.

“Die!” Li Huowang swung his spine sword toward where Prince Ren disappeared, and the crack cut through the white smoke.

To Li Huowang’s disappointment, there was no sign of Prince Ren amidst the smoke. There was only a strange-looking person with a giant gold ingot in hand. The strange-looking person was wearing a white mask with a black beard as well.

The large official hat with bronze coins on the man’s head swayed back and forth. His legs seemed jointless as he jumped toward Li Huowang along with the rhythmic beats of the gongs.

Li Huowang immediately recognized the other party’s identity upon seeing the two bronze coins in the eyes of the mask.

“Jumping God of Wealth, huh?”

Li Huowang gritted his teeth and tightened his grip on the spine sword before charging at the masked God of Wealth.

Since the surprise attack had failed, he could only mount a direct confrontation. He had to eliminate Prince Ren before reinforcements from the Prince Ren Mansion arrived.

As the two approached each other, Li Sui acted first. A tentacle drilled out from the left side of Li Huowang’s neck and wrapped around the bronze coin sword on his back, slashing toward the God of Wealth.

”Brother Li, put that sword away! The entire sword is made out of bronze coins!”

Zhuge Yuan was halfway through his reminder while the bronze coins swooshed out with the red thread. It quickly elongated like a whip and lashed towards the opponent.

When the bronze coins collided with the giant gold ingot, the coins on the sword trembled and broke free from Li Sui’s control.

The scattered coins all flew toward the giant gold ingot as if it were a magnet.

The God of Wealth forcefully lifted the gold ingot, and those bronze coins reassembled into a sword that flew toward Li Huowang.

Li Huowang had been using his bronze coin sword for a long time now, but it no longer belonged to him.

Swoosh!

Li Huowang swung his spine sword, sending the bronze coin sword to the Great Qi.

The next moment, alarms suddenly rang in Li Huowang’s mind. He whipped around and raised the spine sword above his head.

Clang!

The floor beneath Li Huowang’s feet exploded, kicking up a cloud of dust.

Li Sui’s eight tentacles pierced the ground, but Li Huowang could barely withstand the immense weight.

A huge silver mace, which seemed to be made out of broken silver, was pressing down on the spine sword with the weight of a mountain.

“Li Sui! Take the sword!”

The black tentacles wrapped around the spine sword’s hilt. At the same time, Li Huowang drew the purple-tasseled sword and slashed it toward his own left hand.

His arm shattered and became a claw. Then, he wasted no time and attempted to grab his enemy.

The enemy retreated in response, and Li Huowang took advantage of that opportunity to take the spine sword back from Li Sui before widening the distance between him and his opponent.

Li Huowang looked at the ambusher. He was wearing an identical mask to the man who previously portrayed the Jumping God of Wealth. However, their clothes were markedly different from each other.

This man was eight feet tall and was riding a golden leopard dressed in bronze coin armor. Four yellow banners with the word “Wealth” were sticking out of his back.

“Martial God of Wealth? Scholar God of Wealth?” Li Huowang scanned the two enemies shrouded in white smoke.

The two Gods of Wealth began to orbit him as the urgent and piercing beats of gongs pervaded the surroundings.

This can’t go on like this. Prince Ren would have already escaped by the time I’m done with these two! Li Huowang thought, feeling anxious as many ideas flashed through his mind.

When he saw more shadows in the white smoke, Li Huowang made up his mind. He gripped the spine sword tightly and swung it forcefully.

He carved open a rift large enough for a human being to use.

“Li Sui! Charge in!”

Li Huowang swiftly arrived at the edge of the crack. The Great Qi was within arm’s reach, and he could already see it.

Li Huowang had decided to use the Great Qi as a shelter to escape the people of Great Liang’s encirclement.

Li Sui took out two talismans and stuck them on Li Huowang’s legs. Li Huowang then ran as fast as he could toward the rift, but he still seemed a bit too slow!
