Bai Cangshu looked at this short-statured youth, whose eyes radiated pure malice.

He had just slaughtered probably more than fifty people.

Bai Cangshu clapped his hands and laughed loudly.

"Looks like you really did something quite satisfying."

He looked at the tragic scene all around, clicked his tongue, and his Footwork continuously brought him closer to the other party.

The Evil Child seemed not to sense Bai Cangshu's intentional approach; the corners of his mouth hooked up and his eyes narrowed. Despite his delicate, youthful appearance, his body was trembling slightly at this moment—it was the look of someone excited to the extreme.

"Ha, Tao Baibai, you really are the same kind of person as me, only you aren't pure enough, still bound by rules, I..."

"Am more excellent than you."

Bang!

A silver revolver suddenly appeared in Bai Cangshu's hand. He fired a shot casually, and the bullet, as if it had grown eyes, flew straight toward the Evil Child's brow.

Bai Cangshu felt something in his heart; 【Doom Knocking】 had already been triggered.

The Evil Child's body twisted strangely again. That kind of movement did not look like something he had initiated at all; it was as if a force had made his body twist the moment the bullet appeared.

Bai Cangshu's shot missed, and the Evil Child moved his feet, his figure once again shooting over with an eerie, extreme speed, as if flying just above the ground.

Amidst the circulation of Bai Cangshu's breathing, the white, mist-like air was inhaled into his mouth, and then a thunderous sound exploded.

Chirp!

The Evil Child looked at Tao Baibai, who should have had no reaction to his 【Blessing of Trickery】, as his figure suddenly twisted rapidly like a thunderbolt.

【Blessing of Trickery: When suffering a long-range attack, automatically evade that attack and instantly counterattack the target. This effect can only be triggered once against the same target within a short period.】

The most powerful part of this blessing was not the automatic evasion of that one long-range attack, but the Description of "instantly counterattack the target."

The Evil Child had tested it: if he held a firearm, he would complete the dodge and fire back the moment he pulled the trigger, but this kind of shootout was far from powerful enough;

Therefore, he slowly changed his combat style to pure close-quarters combat, using a Zhua to slaughter, and the effect became what it was now: the moment he was attacked, he would twist his body to dodge the attack and immediately approach the target at an incredible speed.

Completing evasion, target-seeking, and approaching the target all at once.

It was just like the moment after you fired a shot, you would be stabbed by his blade; Common Reincarnators simply couldn't react in time.

Lightning seemed to explode on Bai Cangshu's figure. As he forcibly twisted his body, the other party had already torn through the air and appeared before him. Bai Cangshu's pupils trembled slightly; that Zhua was already stabbing toward his neck.

He thrust one hand in front of him, slamming it upward against the Evil Child's chin.

The moment the Evil Child's Zhua stabbed into Bai Cangshu's neck, Bai Cangshu suddenly exerted force, striking the Evil Child's lower jaw with his palm, a massive force erupting.

Bang!

The Evil Child was knocked flying upward, his tongue bitten by his own teeth. The massive impact acted on his lower jaw, causing a brain concussion in an instant; his consciousness went Empty for a short time, and he didn't manage to turn the Zhua.

Bai Cangshu, however, consciously twisted his body, leaping into the air with the Evil Child, twisting and turning, completely following the movement trajectory of the Zhua in the Evil Child's hand, not letting this blade continue to slice his artery.

Bai Cangshu landed, and with a wipe of his hand radiating golden Ripple, the small wound on his neck had already healed.

The Evil Child also stumbled to the ground at this time, retreating a few steps; both of them had sensed the other's uniqueness.

On the other side, Stormfront, who had just been blasted down from the air by a Dodon Ray, stood up while clutching her chest. Her physical constitution was powerful; even Homelander's standard-intensity Heat Vision wouldn't cause her much damage.

But she had rarely suffered such an attack. Her expression was gloomy as she clapped her hands together; the atmosphere surged violently. Amidst the howling gale, she rose with the wind, and purple lightning fell instantly.

Bai Cangshu had already noticed the other party the moment Stormfront stood up. At this moment, his figure moved, and he lunged fiercely toward the Evil Child. The lightning missed, and Stormfront continued to wave her hands, but a black figure ran over at high speed and lunged into the air.

It knocked Stormfront directly away.

Kage hit Stormfront in the face with a series of punches in the air, and upon landing, he pinned the other party beneath him.

Bang!

The violent impact made Stormfront cry out in pain. Kage quickly drew a blade from behind with his right hand, and with a turn of the blade, he stabbed down at Stormfront.

Pfft!

Stormfront grabbed Kage's blade directly with her hand, and the two began to wrestle with their terrifying strength.

On the other side, Bai Cangshu lunged toward the Evil Child, his palms joined like a blade, stabbing down toward his body instantly. The Evil Child was short, but his Footwork was quite agile; he also only touched the ground with his toes, shifted his center of gravity, and immediately leaped backward.

His whole body seemed to be bouncing on the ground, flashing left and right, his speed as fast as a Ghost.

Bai Cangshu missed his strike, but his movements didn't grow old; his breathing through his nose and mouth sounded like thunder exploding again.

Chirp!

His speed soared, and his hand-blade slashed horizontally.

Pfft!

The air was slashed open, emitting a shrill whistling sound. The Evil Child held his Zhua vertically, blocking it in front of himself.

Bai Cangshu exhaled and shouted, ignoring the blade entirely, and slashed horizontally directly at the place where the Evil Child was holding the Zhua.

The Evil Child's pupils shrank; a terrifying, massive force had already erupted from in front of him. His right hand was knocked back, hitting his own chest. While his sternum cracked, he had already been knocked sliding backward for more than ten meters.

Bang!

Suddenly, another gunshot rang out. Bai Cangshu's figure paused, and the bullet grazed his ear, hitting the ground.

A Reincarnator wearing a trench coat lay on the roof of a car in the distance. Seeing that his shot hadn't hit, he frowned and was about to continue aiming, but Bai Cangshu had already raised his finger, pointing at him from afar.

Golden light appeared. The gunman was shocked, immediately put away his firearm, turned, and jumped off the car.

Hum~ Boom!

The Dodon Ray blasted the vehicle to pieces in an instant.

Bai Cangshu then turned around again, his Dodon Ray gathering and aiming at the Evil Child; he was controlling his Qi as if he had no consumption at all.

The Evil Child, looking at the light in Tao Baibai's hand and connecting it to the iconic pink robe and codename on the other party, knew exactly where the other party's ability came from.

"Damn it, is this the kind of ability a low-level Reincarnator should have?"

But the next moment, he revealed a contradictory smile.

"However, killing someone like this will yield even more, heh."

Facing the Dodon Ray, he didn't run to dodge; instead, he licked his blade, then tapped his Footwork and instantly arrived at Bai Cangshu's side.

At this moment, Bai Cangshu discovered that he was actually unable to move.

【Based on the disparity in Spirit between both parties, you have obtained the following information】

【You have been affected by Reincarnator eb44668741's Nen Ability: Blood Coagulation; your physical mobility is restricted】

Blood Coagulation?

Bai Cangshu stood where he was, while the Monster clicked his tongue in wonder, looking at Bai Cangshu as if he were looking at a rare wild beast.

"To have learned such a powerful ability so early, you really are lucky."

Pfft!

As he spoke, he thrust his Zhua directly into Bai Cangshu's neck.

The icy coldness of the blade entering his body made Bai Cangshu's heart beat violently like a drumbeat in an instant.

His blood began to pump again at a terrifying speed, his skin flushed red, high-temperature steam began to appear, and his figure suddenly expanded by several dozen centimeters. The Monster was startled, instantly slashing his Zhua downward to rip open the artery, and seeing the blood spurt out like a fountain, he immediately flipped backward.

Bai Cangshu exhaled a breath of turbid air, pressed his left hand against the wound, and tensed his muscles.

A Pillar-level swordsman in the Total Concentration state of a Breathing Style could use their Breathing Style to control muscles and blood vessels to stop bleeding, let alone Bai Cangshu, who was currently in the state of having opened the Transparent World.

With just a casual wipe, the spurting blood stopped, and at the same time, golden Ripple flowed, and that seemingly terrifying wound also gradually began to heal.

The Monster frowned, not expecting that slicing open the neck artery could not cause effective damage to Tao Baibai.

He once again quickly licked a mouthful of the opponent's blood from his own Zhua.

Bai Cangshu's figure was frozen once again.

The Monster closed in instantly, his hands appearing to vanish as he frantically brandished his Zhua.

The Zhua was inherently a very dangerous weapon for close-quarters combat, lighter and more agile than a dagger, with a faster swinging speed, and it was also convenient for slicing through muscles or even severing joints and Meridians.

In the blink of an eye, flesh and blood flew everywhere; the Monster curled his lips, the scent of blood making him incomparably Man Zhi.

!

But suddenly, a hand passed through his wildly dancing hands and gripped his throat.

"Hey, how much longer are you going to keep up this ticklish slashing? You've had your fun, now it's my turn."

Bai Cangshu was covered in blood, and even his face had been slashed with quite a few wounds, but he seemed unable to feel pain, instead revealing a smile.

Pain can sometimes make people feel comfortable; ordinary people will occasionally press on sore spots because of body aches, and that kind of pain makes the human body feel a strange sense of comfort.

Bai Cangshu went a step further; this kind of pain, this scent of blood, made him feel that his heart could keep beating violently, keep being excited.

He gripped the Monster's throat, turned abruptly, hoisted the other's body, and slammed it directly into the ground.

Crack!

Amidst the sound of bones and the concrete ground shattering simultaneously, spiderweb-like cracks appeared, and the next moment, the ground collapsed with a boom.

"Ugh... Pfft!"

The Monster choked on blood, and his consciousness was instantly lost.

Beneath the mist-like white steam, Bai Cangshu was like a Ghost; he stood in place, looking at the unconscious Monster, revealing a cruel smile, his right hand raised, and the two silver-white rings on his fingers began to glow.

He punched straight down, and a bright green light suddenly appeared.

【Tongxing】!

The Reincarnator wearing a trench coat gasped for breath, clutching a card in his hand, and shouted; a green light simultaneously enveloped both himself and the unconscious Monster.

The Monster was instantly covered by the light and flew up.

Boom!

Bai Cangshu's punch directly caused the ground for several meters around to collapse completely; the flower beds and green belts nearby shattered, and water pipes began to burst and spray water.

He looked up, seeing the bright green light carrying the two toward a car in the distance; his breathing changed, and he stomped his foot violently.

Thud!

With an incomparably huge sound, Xuanse and Stormfront, in the midst of their struggle, both felt as if there were an Earthquake; they turned their heads back, only to see a blood-covered giant beast sprinting away.

Cuixiu's heart sank uncontrollably at this moment; he had not expected that even though the Monster had the advantage, using his ability to control that Tao Baibai and beginning to slaughter him, he would be countered in an instant.

What kind of ability did that Tao Baibai have? Some kind of Transformation Technique?

He did not understand, but the most precious 【Tongxingka】 on his person had already been used; although this card was only of blue quality, it had the ability to carry up to 20 people to a target location simultaneously.

However, because Cuixiu's Nen Ability was not strong enough, he could at most carry people 200 meters away.

This special card from the 【Hunter World】 had cost him a great deal of resources, and wasting it here today, he didn't even have time to feel the heartache.

Because he could hear that Tao Baibai was sprinting toward him.

Damn it!

The two threw themselves behind the car; Cuixiu immediately took out a vial of medicine, injected it into the Monster, and then threw the Monster to one side.

He saved the Monster with all his might, not because the two had some kind of life-and-death friendship, nor because they were cousins, but simply because they were a community of interests; if the Monster died at this moment, he knew clearly that he was by no means a match for 【Tao Baibai】 and 【Calamity Wave】.

Moreover, the Monster still had a special ability, which was his talent, so he had to save the Monster; at the very least, he had to let the Monster use that ability before dying.

"Show some backbone, Monster; dying just like this is too ugly..."

He turned and threw himself onto the car, turning the ignition to start it; in the rearview mirror, he saw that the hateful Monster with the expanded figure had already appeared.

The opponent had covered the distance of two hundred meters in less than 10 seconds.

Bai Cangshu grabbed a taxi on the side of the road that had been destroyed by Gatling gunfire, roared, and threw it directly at the starting car.

He himself turned and arrived at the Monster's side, raising his foot to stomp down violently.

Bai Cangshu would not give the opponent any chance.

Bang!

The ground shook violently, but Bai Cangshu stepped into Empty air.

The Monster opened his eyes, his eyes flushed red, and his entire temperament had completely changed.

"Ha, this kid Cuishijing is really useless; he's been beaten to the brink of death by someone again..."

He stood up, less than a meter from Bai Cangshu, his body leaning forward, his center of gravity still extremely stable.

The Evil Child looked up, locking eyes with Bai Cangshu; in his reddened pupils, there was only a look of brutality.

"Nice to meet you, I am... Evil Child, ha."

Pfft!

Bai Cangshu's pupils trembled; the opponent's speed seemed to have stepped up a level—no, it wasn't that the absolute speed had changed, but rather that this Evil Child's movements had changed.

He utilized the size difference between his own short stature and Bai Cangshu's current height of over two meters to instantly drop low, using Bai Cangshu's body as cover to slash a blade across Bai Cangshu's thigh, and then followed the momentum to arrive behind Bai Cangshu.

Bai Cangshu breathed, then let out a strange laugh.

"An inner personality, how comical."

He turned instantly and smashed a fist down; the Evil Child's expression was calm as he stepped to the left, but Bai Cangshu possessed the realms of Transparent World and First of the First, instantly perceiving the intention, and while throwing the punch, he stepped out with his right foot, slamming his entire body into him.

Bang!

The Zhua in the Evil Child's hand vanished instantly, his palms raised, and he was sent flying from the impact, but this time, he did not suffer any injury, his force-deflecting movement being quite perfect; while creating distance, he licked the Zhua that had reappeared in mid-air.

The Blood Coagulation ability activated once more; this ability, originating from a certain Superpower world, had the effect of immobilizing the opponent's ability to move for several seconds after tasting the opponent's blood, depending on the opponent's blood type.

His figure flickered, appearing once again at Bai Cangshu's side, stabbing a blade down toward the vital point between Bai Cangshu's legs.
