Hearing Li Xiaotian’s words, Li Wenbo erupted into wild laughter, his face contorted with madness. He glared at Li Xiaotian, gritting his teeth and saying,
“So what? Don't forget who caused me to be like this! It was you! It was you, Li Xiaotian!”
“You destroyed my Li family, killed my parents and relatives. Heaven gave me a chance to get revenge, what wrong have I done?”
“As long as I can kill you, I don’t care what the consequences are!”
Li Xiaotian’s gaze was icy, and he offered no rebuttal. Li Wenbo’s reasoning was correct, but his method was flawed.
“Li Xiaotian, are you scared? Afraid I’ll kill you? Hahaha, you must be. I’m even more powerful now! And this is my territory, I am invincible here!”
Li Wenbo laughed maniacally, gradually absorbing the blood on his body, a look of infatuation spreading across his face. He continued,
“The power of blood, Li Xiaotian, thank you for giving me this opportunity. If it weren’t for you, I probably wouldn’t have known that human blood could be used like this, and that I could become so strong!”
“I am immortal! I will kill you, devour your blood, and become even stronger! I will become the sole king of this world, and everyone will bow before me!”
“You’ve gone mad!” Li Xiaotian said indifferently, his eyes cold as he drew a long saber.
Seeing this, Li Wenbo’s eyes turned red, and he lunged forward instantly.
“Pfft!” Li Xiaotian struck swiftly. The two figures crossed paths, and a bloody gash appeared on Li Wenbo’s neck.
“Hehehe.” Li Wenbo chuckled sinisterly, then turned to face Li Xiaotian. The wound on his neck was healing at a visible rate.
Li Xiaotian’s eyebrows rose. Li Wenbo’s regenerative ability was even faster than before, indicating a significant increase in his strength in just two days.
“Heh heh, Li Xiaotian, you can’t kill me. I’m invincible here!” Li Wenbo sneered, faint blood mist emanating from his body, nourishing him.
Li Xiaotian advanced with his saber, charging forward again. If the wounds healed quickly, what if he severed a limb?
“Bang!” Li Wenbo casually picked up a steel pipe from the ground to block. The two engaged in a frenzied battle.
Li Wenbo’s strength had improved considerably, but his lack of combat experience remained his weakness. He had faced far too few battles compared to Li Xiaotian.
As for Li Xiaotian, the number of battles he had fought was countless, with victories against stronger opponents being innumerable.
If both were under the same conditions, even with Li Wenbo having a slight edge in strength, he would still be no match for Li Xiaotian.
However, their current battle was taking place in a cave, which served as a natural place of recovery and enhancement for Li Wenbo. Any minor injuries he sustained would quickly heal.
Within a few breaths, Li Wenbo sustained several wounds, but they had no effect on him as they healed rapidly.
On Li Xiaotian’s side, although he had not yet been injured, continuing the fight would put him in danger.
“Li Xiaotian, who would have thought you’d be in this situation? Heh heh, let’s see how long you can last!”
Li Wenbo grinned, becoming even more ferocious. He attacked relentlessly, disregarding defense, as long as he didn’t suffer a fatal blow, minor injuries were inconsequential.
Li Xiaotian’s eyes flickered as he waited for an opportunity. Li Wenbo was difficult to kill, but not impossible. He refused to believe that the man could recover after having his head severed.
With a plan forming in his mind, Li Xiaotian deliberately exposed a weakness. Li Wenbo, seeing this, was overjoyed and lunged forward, aiming to stab Li Xiaotian’s chest with the steel pipe.
He looked ecstatic, as if he could already see Li Xiaotian’s chest pierced.
But in the next instant, Li Xiaotian’s figure vanished. With incredible speed, he sidestepped Li Wenbo’s attack and swung his saber towards Li Wenbo’s head.
Li Wenbo was instantly shocked. He immediately withdrew to dodge, simultaneously spitting out a mouthful of blood in an attempt to force Li Xiaotian back.
Li Xiaotian’s eyes flashed with ferocity. He paused slightly, evading the blood spat out by Li Wenbo. In the next moment, his gaze hardened, and he spun his saber, cleanly severing one of Li Wenbo’s arms.
“Ahhh!” Li Wenbo screamed in agony. His face contorted with rage. He had already lost an arm to Li Xiaotian before, and he had made the same mistake again today!
“Li Xiaotian, you’re asking for death!” Li Wenbo roared, his expression growing even more manic. Simultaneously, the blood in the pool surged, and a small tributary flowed towards Li Wenbo, extending from his feet to his severed limb.
But Li Xiaotian would not give him another chance to recover. He brandished his saber and rapidly closed in on Li Wenbo.
“Clang!” With a loud clang, Li Xiaotian knocked away Li Wenbo’s weapon. At the same time, Li Wenbo retreated rapidly, intending to escape into the blood pool.
Li Xiaotian’s eyes were cold as he continued his assault, his long saber flashing.
“Damn you! You deserve to die!” Li Wenbo shouted, frantically dodging.
“Pfft!” With another soft sound, a wound appeared on Li Wenbo’s chest, so deep that his bone was visible.
“Ah!” Li Wenbo cried out, ceasing his resistance and turning to flee towards the blood pool.
Li Xiaotian’s eyes flickered as he rapidly pursued Li Wenbo, catching up in an instant. Just as he was about to strike Li Wenbo with his saber, he noticed the man grinning eerily.
“Not good!” Li Xiaotian’s heart seized with alarm, and without a second thought, he prepared to retreat.
“Hahaha, too late! Master!” Li Wenbo shouted, his face filled with triumph.
“Boom!” As Li Wenbo finished speaking, a pillar of blood surged from the blood pool. It seemed to possess a life of its own, like a tentacle, descending from above to strike Li Xiaotian.
“Bang!” Li Xiaotian raised his saber to block, and the long saber instantly shattered. He had no choice but to react quickly, his speed reaching its absolute limit as he fled to the side.
“Boom!” The blood-colored tentacle fell, slamming Li Xiaotian directly onto the ground.
“Pfft!” Li Xiaotian spat out a mouthful of blood, his entire body wracked with unbearable pain, feeling as if it were about to fall apart.
Simultaneously, his body was covered in blood, which seemed to have a consciousness of its own, drilling into him frantically.
“Hmph!” Li Xiaotian let out a muffled groan, feeling as if his body were about to explode.
“Hahaha, Li Xiaotian, surprised, aren’t you? I have help. Did you really think I was this weak? That I would be so easily cornered and forced to flee?”
Li Wenbo laughed heartily, then looked at the blood pool and spoke,
“Master, how is this sacrifice? Your disciple will kill him for you, using his blood to help you recover!”
“Heh heh, King tier, a genius, not bad. Kill him!” The blood pool churned, and an ancient voice emanated.
Li Xiaotian’s heart was filled with shock. The blood pool was indeed alive!
But this was immediately replaced by intense pain. By now, the blood on his body had spread everywhere, rendering him unable to move.
Li Wenbo sneered as he picked up his broken saber and walked towards Li Xiaotian, about to deliver the final blow.
“Boom!” A loud sound emanated from Li Xiaotian’s body.
