“But there are still two things I can’t understand. It’s not even been two months, how did you become so powerful in such a short time? Besides, you’ve got an interspatial ring and at least three soul items, could it be you’ve really joined the Crafting School?” Zhang Yang kept asking with a soft sigh. After his original ruse had been seen through completely by the opponent, he seemed to have suffered a very serious blow.
However, quite some time after asking the questions, Zhang Yang still did not get an answer. On raising his head to take a look, he saw Bai Yunfei standing with arms crossed and staring at him derisively with a vague smile on the corners of his mouth.
When making eye contact with Bai Yunfei, Zhang Yang felt as though his mind was read, which immediately sent a chill down his spine. He withdrew his eyes unconsciously. At this moment, Bai Yunfei said in an indifferent voice:
“You… are stalling for time in the hope that someone will rush over here to save you, right?”
“How… how so? In my current situation, you can kill me anytime you want.” Zhang Yang panicked for a moment and shook his head repeatedly. He then said with a sad face: “I only want to clear the doubt in my mind before my death so that I can die without regrets…”
“Oh, but your soul will be destroyed, what difference does it make if you know or not? To avoid any accidents, I’d better kill you right away.” Bai Yunfei said gently as if he was negotiating with Zhang Yang.
Seeing the expression of puzzlement, unwillingness, terror and despair on Zhang Yang’s face, Bai Yunfei finally could not help chuckling, saying: “You’re wondering why after seeing through your tricks I still wanted to talk to you so much earlier, aren’t you?
“I just wanted to see this expression of yours! Great young master Zhang, how do you feel when someone has you in the palm of their hand and can decide your fate as they wish? Have you ever thought that you’d be like this one day?” Bai Yunfei turned his head to look outside the house and said with a chuckle: “I have to thank your subordinates. Because you wanted to come here tonight, they did a detailed ‘clean-up’. Basically nobody has gone past this place, and nobody has come here to check out the sounds of movement earlier…
“At first I still wanted to play with you for a while more, but I’ve run out of patience. I’m afraid if I keep delaying, something unexpected might happen. Therefore…” He reached out his right hand and the Fire-tipped Spear appeared in his hand instantly.
“Prepare to pay for everything you did!”
Looking at Zhang Yang, who was struggling backwards nonstop with a face full of terror, Bai Yunfei slowly walked up step by step to keep up with him while saying: “When I killed that bodyguard of yours just now, you also saw that explosion effect. I can tell you that this spear has only a 10% chance of activating that effect… Will you be slowly tortured to death by me? Or will you be killed immediately by an explosion?
“Repent! And pray!”
As Bai Yunfei stared at Zhang Yang, who was moving backwards mechanically in front of him, his endless fury could not be concealed anymore and it erupted from his eyes. He thrust his spear at Zhang Yang’s left leg.
“This is for what you owe me! I’m not an ant, and you can’t force me to fight for your pleasure as you wish!”
With a soft ‘pu’ sound, the tip of the spear pierced straight through the calf and penetrated into the floor underneath. Zhang Yang stopped and let out a miserable cry. A scorching feeling went into his mind. The previous extreme coldness in his left leg was dispelled instantly, as if a red hot iron bar had pierced through the calf. He even seemed to hear bursts of hissing sounds and notice a faint burnt smell.
