Chapter 1365: Finally Found You

This monster had three hands and three legs, a ferocious face, and its tall body gave off a tremendous sense of oppression.

Chen Yu took two steps back and sneered, "You finally came out."

"Is this Xiaowei?" Liu Ruxi looked at the huge monster before her, and she could not help but be startled.

When she had met Jiang Wei before, she was a beautiful and intellectual woman, but who could have imagined that such a beautiful woman's true identity would actually be a Dark Creature.

"It is not, but its body does indeed have Jiang Wei's aura." Chen Yu frowned, "As long as we don't let it run away, it will be fine."

As he spoke, the monster took a step forward, let out a low roar, and stretched its two hands forward, revealing sharp, hard fingernails; it then swiped a palm toward Chen Yu.

Chen Yu retreated, and several streaks of Sword Light surged from his body, slashing toward the monster.

With a few *chi-chi* sounds, its two arms were severed, and the single remaining arm no longer posed much of a threat to Chen Yu.

The monster let out a roar, staggered backward, and then stared fixedly at Chen Yu with a pair of blood-red eyes.

In its view, Chen Yu was nothing more than prey, but this prey was actually able to fight back, which was something it had never imagined.

After staring at Chen Yu for a long time, seemingly unable to see anything special about him, it let out another roar and lunged at Chen Yu.

Chen Yu did not hesitate; he met the creature's attack, then grabbed with his right hand, and Lichen appeared in his hand.

His figure crossed with the monster's, skillfully dodging the opponent's attack, and the sword in his hand left several sword marks on its body in an instant.

Each sword mark left a huge scar on the opponent's body; the monster let out a roar, then twisted its body violently and fled rapidly using its three legs.

The Lichen in Chen Yu's hand flew from his grasp and stabbed heavily into its back.

The monster's body had been about to become translucent, but the Lichen sword strike to its back made it unable to turn invisible again.

"Let's go." Chen Yu pulled Liu Ruxi along and followed it in pursuit.

Because of its injuries, the creature's movement speed was hindered, but even so, the monster's speed was not something an ordinary person could match.

Chen Yu pulled Liu Ruxi along, chasing it almost without his feet touching the ground, and finally, on one side of the small island, the thing stopped.

This was a small hill with a tiny cave in front of it, and a woman was standing at the cave entrance; this woman was none other than Jiang Wei.

Upon seeing Jiang Wei, the monster's body gradually shrank, changing from its previous ferocious appearance to lie down beside Jiang Wei like a docile puppy.

"You're hurt?" Jiang Wei appeared surprisingly gentle; she gently stroked the monster's head, "Good, go and tend to your wounds; leave things here to me."

The thing could understand her words; it hummed softly a few times and then burrowed into the cave.

"Xiaowei, release my aunt and He Yi." Liu Ruxi's emotions were somewhat agitated.

Although Xiaowei looked quite normal, she already knew the other party's true identity, so she still did not dare to step forward.

"Miss Liu, I didn't expect you to actually be able to track me here." Xiaowei smiled slightly, "Originally, after a few more days, I would have returned."

"Where are my aunt and He Yi?" Liu Ruxi stared at her and asked.

"Rest assured, the two of them are fine right now." Jiang Wei smiled slightly, "It's just that they found out my identity, so I had to keep them here; it wouldn't be good if my identity were leaked."

"It's not just the two of them who know your identity." Chen Yu stepped forward and said coldly, "The first time I met you, I felt there was something wrong with you; sure enough, you are not human."

"I am indeed not human; I am a Dark Creature. Originally, I could only live in the darkness and could not see the light, but the owner of this body gave me a chance at rebirth," Jiang Wei said leisurely.

"I used her skin to survive in the human world and escape the darkness."

"What you are doing is truly immoral." Chen Yu frowned; this woman spoke in such an understated way that it made people feel very uncomfortable.

To someone like her, human life was simply worthless.

"I was never human to begin with, and moral standards cannot constrain me." Xiaowei chuckled, "So it is useless for you to tell me these things."

"But since you have become a human, you must try to learn the principles of being human." Chen Yu said, "Release the people, and I guarantee that as long as you don't cause trouble, nothing will happen."

"It is impossible for me to release them. My lair here lacks human vitality, and I won't harm them; I'm just letting them live here." Xiaowei stared at Chen Yu, "As for you, being able to find this place—I really underestimated you before."

"You've underestimated more than just me." Chen Yu said, "Fine, I will take a step back; I will erase their memories of the relevant events, and you can continue living in that residential complex."

"As long as you don't harm anyone, I guarantee I won't cause you any trouble."

"Impossible; I never compromise with anyone." Xiaowei sneered.

"So there is no room for negotiation?" Chen Yu stared at her, a murderous intent flashing slightly in his eyes, "Are you forcing me to take action against you?"

"Haha, since I have revealed myself, it is only a matter of time before we fight." Xiaowei laughed loudly, "You are a Dharma Cultivator, but we Dark Creatures are not afraid of you Dharma Cultivators."

"Xiaowei, we are friends." Liu Ruxi paused and said, "Can you not be like this? Release my aunt and He Yi, and I guarantee that your affairs won't be leaked in the future."

"No, I have lived in the Dark World for I don't know how many tens of thousands of years." Xiaowei shook her head, "Now that I finally have a chance to escape that world, I will not allow myself to take any risks."

"Since we have nothing to negotiate, let's fight." Chen Yu pointed his right hand into the void, and Lichen appeared.

"Actually, I shouldn't have wasted my breath on you." Xiaowei shook her head; she slowly raised her head, her eyes gleaming with an eerie light.

Her fingernails extended, and the dozens-of-centimeters-long nails shone with an eerie light, just like metal.

A figure flashed; her body turned into an afterimage and attacked Chen Yu, her sharp, slender fingernails striking at Chen Yu like a rainstorm.

Her speed was extremely fast; in almost an instant, she had launched nearly a hundred claw strikes.

Chen Yu gestured with his right hand, and Lichen flew from his grasp; Lichen formed a barrier around his body, spinning rapidly.

Xiaowei's fingernails clashed with the sword, sparks flying from time to time.

Suddenly, her figure split into two, then from two into three; a moment later, six of her appeared before Chen Yu.
