659: Chapter 659: The Psychic Finger 659: Chapter 659: The Psychic Finger The Blood Demon arrived near Li Ge and his group, only to find that Yuan’er and Bai Xiaofan had vanished.
Sensing a formation fluctuation nearby, he struck out with his palm.
However, to his surprise, when his palm hit the barrier, it was repelled with a great force.
In an instant, the Blood Demon felt a surge of heat in his chest and almost spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.
Damn it!
What kind of formation is this?
And it actually rebounds the attack!
This further confirmed his belief that Bai Xiaofan and Yuan’er were hiding inside this formation.
Despite the risk of being injured by the recoil, the Blood Demon continued to strike with his palms.
Meanwhile, Li Ge and his people within the formation were filled with terror.
What are you doing?
Has this person gone mad?
Moments later, the formation was finally broken by brute force.
At the corner of the Blood Demon’s mouth hung a faint trace of blood.
However, just as he was about to strike down Bai Xiaofan with his palm, he discovered that Bai Xiaofan’s figure was not inside.
Enraged, he slapped the head of a lackey next to Li Ge, venting his anger.
The slap directly shattered the lackey’s head to pieces.
“Where did those two run off to just now?”
The Blood Demon glared at Li Ge and his people, bellowing his question.
Seeing his brother killed by the man before him,
Li Ge’s heart was filled with extreme anger.
Damn it, you kill my brother and still have the face to ask me where others have gone?
Trembling with rage, Li Ge pointed in the opposite direction and told the Blood Demon.
Glancing at the direction Li Ge pointed, the Blood Demon turned and swiftly gave chase.
“Grab Little Duck’s body and let’s run!”
Li Ge ordered his lackeys, and they all ran towards the city.
What Li Ge did not know was that his act of spiteful pointing had saved Bai Xiaofan’s life.
It had also completely altered the trajectory of his own life.
Years later, when Li Ge became the boss of the underground forces in An’chang city, some lackeys asked him how he had started his rise.
Li Ge mysteriously answered with a phrase that confused everyone.
Only the few lackeys who were with him from the beginning knew the meaning behind Li Ge’s words.
Lingxi Finger!
That was Li Ge’s answer!
…
Yuan’er, carrying Bai Xiaofan, arrived in front of a small inn.
With a light leap, she reached the second floor’s window.
Standing by the window, she listened for a moment, heard no breathing sounds inside, then pushed the window open and took Bai Xiaofan inside.
Indeed, there was no one in the room.
She placed Bai Xiaofan on the bed and took out a pellet of medicine from her bosom, which Bai Xiaofan had given her earlier.
After administering the medicinal pellet to Bai Xiaofan, Yuan’er didn’t know what else she could do.
She could only wait for Bai Xiaofan to wake up.
Worried that the trail of blood from their journey might be followed, she quietly retraced their path, wiping away the blood droplets.
To prevent the Blood Demon from tracking them again.
Bai Xiaofan remained unconscious for a full three days and nights.
Yuan’er had never left Bai Xiaofan’s side and had been taking meticulous care of him all along.
Three days later, Bai Xiaofan woke up.
Yet, the moment he opened his eyes, all was still pitch black.
After a brief moment of confusion, Bai Xiaofan remembered everything.
“Master, you’re awake.
How do you feel?”
Noticing Bai Xiaofan’s awakening, Yuan’er hurried to his side, asking with concern.
“I’m just glad you’re unharmed.
For now, I can’t see anything with my eyes, but the injuries on my body should heal in a few days!”
Upon hearing Yuan’er’s voice, Bai Xiaofan also let out a sigh of relief.
Right after waking up, he had been worried about Yuan’er’s safety.
“By the way, how’s Zhan Xing?
Did he manage to escape with us?
Did Princess Sasa and the others show up later?”
Bai Xiaofan then recalled hearing Princess Sasa’s voice right before he passed out.
“Old Zhan has also escaped.
Right now, he’s hiding with Xue Ru and Monk Kongkong in a civilian house in Anchang City…”
Yuan’er helped Bai Xiaofan to sit up in bed and softly explained to him what had happened since that day.
After Zhan Xing was sent flying by a palm strike from the Blood Demon, Monk Kongkong had surprisingly appeared.
Monk Kongkong had taken Zhan Xing away from there and then found a civilian house to recuperate in.
This was something Yuan’er only learned when she ran into Monk Kongkong outside a day earlier.
Zhao Hui didn’t die either, but most of the Dragon Shadow experts he had brought with him did perish.
Only five Nascent Soul-stage experts managed to escape with him.
As for why Princess Sasa and the others were there, Yuan’er was unclear.
“As long as everyone is safe, that’s what matters.
By the way, have there been any calls from home in the past few days?”
Bai Xiaofan softly inquired.
He didn’t wish to let He Miao’er and Jiang Feifei know about his blindness just yet.
Otherwise, the women would definitely worry.
Especially Chen Xiner, she would be extremely worried.
“I’ve already called them before, telling them that master would be busy with some matters and didn’t want to be disturbed, so the mobile phone was with me!”
Yuan’er, being an intelligent girl, had already thought of this.
So, on the second day of Bai Xiaofan’s unconsciousness, she had called He Miao’er.
After getting a basic understanding of the situation, Bai Xiaofan began to check his injuries while sitting cross-legged.
After slowly circulating a cycle of the Xianxian Jue, Bai Xiaofan nearly collapsed.
The meridians in his body were almost completely severed, and his immortal essence was almost depleted.
If it weren’t for the three remaining Golden Cores and the Dragon Sparrow Sword still operating slowly, Bai Xiaofan almost thought he had become a cripple.
It seemed that this time, repairing the internal injuries wouldn’t be so simple.
He estimated that the medicinal materials looted from the Matsuzawa clan in the island country last time were going to be greatly insufficient.
Subsequently, Bai Xiaofan checked his eyes.
A faint trace of blood covered his eyes.
Although nothing seemed out of the ordinary from the outside, Bai Xiaofan could see it clearly through internal observation.
Bai Xiaofan was certain that this was caused by the Slaughter Eye.
However, he had no idea how the Slaughter Eye appeared in the first place, let alone what had happened this time.
But in his eyes, Bai Xiaofan saw two extremely small, almost invisible blood-colored marks, which might not be seen even with a magnifying glass.
In haste, he mobilized the little remaining immortal essence in his body, concentrating it towards that area.
Ah…
As the immortal essence reached and touched the blood-colored marks in that instant, Bai Xiaofan screamed out and collapsed onto the bed.
At that moment, a trembling and excruciating pain surged through his eyes once more.
Yuan’er, who was nearby, saw Bai Xiaofan suddenly scream.
Just as she was about to check on him, Bai Xiaofan sat up again as if nothing had happened.
