Chapter 709: Ambushed

The light between heaven and earth shone brightly, covering the red sun on the horizon.

The hazy morning mist was dispelled, and pedestrians on both banks closed their eyes.

Lu Gang and the others only felt that the light in their field of vision was ten thousand zhang, after which they saw nothing and heard nothing, only feeling their waists being bitten by something and moving rapidly.

Underwater.

The fat catfish, Round Head, and other beasts bit Lu Gang, Xu Zishuai, and the others, flicking their tails and fleeing frantically.

The little Mirage Dragon spat out the Mirage Tiger and Mist Beast to help, hurriedly flying and leaping high.

After a while.

The light dissipated.

The water tide rolled and surged, the river closed, and half a mast sank obliquely.

Liang Qu's five fingers were not loosened on his skull, intense panting echoed in his ears, and the unique smell of blood surged into his nasal cavity.

"Heh, heh..."

Ning Gongcai was disheveled, his forehead covered in cold sweat, and blood and internal organs fell into the water, staining it into a large pool of blood.

From the chest down, his entire lower body and left forearm were cut off, smooth and neat, leaving only the upper half of the body above the diaphragm and the right arm pinching Liang Qu's skull to escape the disaster.

The bright red heart hung by blood vessels, not falling, hanging outside the chest cavity and beating violently, like a thick, tough rubber tube, rising and falling.

"Good ability! Good means!"

The moment he realized, Ning Gongcai's eyes were blood-red, and his five fingers pinched together fiercely.

The skull cracked, and blood spurted from his mouth and nose.

Bang!

Another golden light shattered.

Taking advantage of this gap.

With the exact same steps, half of the left forearm was rolled by water tentacles and delivered to Liang Qu's hand, the second jade plaque being somewhat dazzlingly white.

Ning Gongcai was shocked, knowing the power of the jade plaque, and immediately let go of Liang Qu, reaching out to grab it.

Liang Qu took this opportunity to finally break free from control, the water flow flicked, and he threw the severed arm with all his might.

Ning Gongcai slapped the water with his right palm, leaped high, grabbed his forearm in mid-air, and looked back. Liang Qu had already fallen underwater, like a river entering the sea, disappearing without a trace.

"Seeking death!"

Ning Gongcai's eyes were cold, and he spat out a large piece of gray mist, wearing down the jade plaque, which then chased the fleeing water beasts like a locust swarm covering the sky and sun.

The gray mist moved like lightning, unable to catch up with Liang Qu, who had divine abilities, but easily caught up with many water beasts.

The Mirage Tiger and Mist Beast had just arrived to help, but were swallowed up in the blink of an eye, exploding into white mist.

Especially the otter family, which swam slightly slower. Seeing the gray mist about to touch their tails, they were so frightened they clamped their tails and kicked their legs desperately.

Life was in danger.

Liang Qu's golden eyes swept across.

In an instant, countless schools of fish in the river seemed to riot, abandoning their lives to surge and block, large patches of blood mist dissipated, blowing up a scarlet sea of blood.

For a time, they actually used their lives to block the pace of the gray wind!

The treasure ship capsized, mud and sand flew, and the fat catfish and other beasts seized the time to flee.

The entire river bottom was in a mess.

Ning Gongcai became more and more manic, backhanding the water, half of his body rushing toward Liang Qu like an arrow from a bow.

Water waves soared into the sky, and the rolling undercurrent pushed the treasure ship back several zhang, and the broken railings floated up, spinning.

Damn it!

Liang Qu really wanted to curse.

One head and one hand, even the heart hanging outside, and he still wouldn't die!

The white dragon danced wildly.

The gray wind turned to wrap around.

As Ning Gongcai swooped down, his ribs layered and closed, sealing the heart back into the chest cavity, flesh and blood squirming and growing, temporarily locking the remaining lung lobes and heart, barely holding a breath of strength.

But just as he was about to catch up with Liang Qu.

Swish!

With a pounce and a leap, Liang Qu actually jumped out of the gray wind's encirclement out of thin air, arriving outside!

Divine ability?

Ning Gongcai's pupils shrank. He was stunned for a moment, seemed to understand something, and turned to chase the water beasts in the distance.

Liang Qu's five fingers pinched together.

Millions of tons of water flow turned into a dragon chain, surging and circling.

A huge whirlpool appeared in the center of the canal, with Ning Gongcai in the center!

Boom!

Ning Gongcai backhanded a palm, and the entire river bottom was like an earth dragon turning over, the whirlpool distorted and collapsed by more than half.

But before he could take advantage of the victory and disperse the whirlpool, bubbles surged, and the water flow actually retreated in advance, letting more than half of the force of his second palm dissipate into the air.

Flush toilet!

As long as you can't fly, no matter how heaven-defying your abilities, there is no way to borrow strength!

Clang!

The vortex blades mixed into the water tornado and collided with the flesh, making the sound of gold and iron.

With the first blade, the subsequent vortex blades were endless, as if turning into a water blade killing array, the clanging sound endless.

The battle at the bottom of the river was earth-shattering, stirring up wind and rain, and a blood-colored whirlpool with a diameter of hundreds of meters appeared on the water surface!

In the whirlpool, the gale raged, the demon man flashed and disappeared, and in no time, exploded into the sky of essence light.

"Run, run quickly, the Dragon King is angry!"

"Run, run!"

"Go and invite the Cangzhou Magistrate!"

The watermen on the river screamed, hurriedly turning the rudder, and those who couldn't make it jumped off the ship to escape.

"Such hard flesh!"

Liang Qu's face was serious.

Ten thousand vortex blades slashed down, actually like ants biting, barely scraping off a layer of skin!

In such a situation, I'm afraid it would take another hundred thousand blades to be effective!

Fortunately, the injury was severe, and the true steel collapsed as soon as it appeared.

"Ah Wei!"

Ah Wei, who had been motionless on his wrist, spat out venom, mixed it into the water gun, and shot it into the tornado, shooting out rapidly.

Ning Gongcai wanted to avoid it, but the originally flexible water flow suddenly turned into stagnant glue, catching him off guard.

Rip!

Under the acceleration of the tornado, the water gun pierced the chest cavity that had just healed with precision, and the venom permeated the body in an instant.

Pfft!

Internal and external troubles.

Ning Gongcai spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Again!"

Liang Qu hung far away, projecting water guns, never letting Ning Gongcai out of the water or even get close.

The other party only had one hand, and the only thing that could effectively exert force was one hand. Even if there were strange moves, they couldn't disperse this blood whirlpool created for him alone!

"Whoo!"

The water gun was like a dragon, tearing at the flesh.

Liang Qu was panting, his head splitting with pain, and his physical strength was dropping rapidly.

The use of water guns and vortex blades was still okay, but if he used a water prison to restrict the other party's actions, there would be a clear feeling of exhaustion.

However, he didn't dare to relax for a moment, desperately squeezing strength from his bones and blood.

I don't know how much time passed, but within the water flow perception, Ning Gongcai's struggle became weaker and weaker.

Liang Qu didn't stop.

He had seen too much.

No living mouth could be left!

A quarter of an hour later.

Ning Gongcai, whose skin was peeled off like a banana, floated to the water surface, his two eyes pitch black, losing his eyeballs, and the chest cavity below rotted into meat paste.

Under the meat paste, dead but not stiff, the heart, the size of a fist, twitched and beat slightly.

In the reed marshes of winter.

Long Eying, Long Binglin, Lu Gang, and others watched eagerly.

Suddenly.

Water bubbles floated out.

Swish!

Liang Qu staggered out of the water, opened his mouth, and fell onto the bank.

Cangzhou Prefecture Office, the Magistrate had just finished breakfast and opened the government affairs volume, when he heard the noise outside, and depressedly put down the paper.

"Someone go and see, why is it so noisy outside?"

Before the clerk could go out to ask, the Cangzhou Chief Constable rushed into the hall and knocked his head on the ground.

"Magistrate, something big is wrong! Something big is wrong!"

"In such a hurry, what happened?"

"A quarter of an hour ago, a hundred-zhang blood whirlpool suddenly appeared on the Jinglan Canal, terrifying the commoners. The subordinate learned of the situation and immediately led people to explore, after..."

The Cangzhou Magistrate slapped the gavel fiercely.

"Get to the point!"

"Liang Qu, the Liang Hengwei, the youngest Hunting Tiger Martial Artist of our dynasty, was ambushed on our Cangzhou canal! The attacker is suspected to be a Grandmaster of the Ghost Mother Sect!"

"What!?"
