Gou Tui Zhi was almost consumed by rage at this moment.
Coupled with the trauma from continuous attacks, his eyes were bloodshot, like a frenzied beast.
Zhao Wu’s words, however, seemed to provoke him further.
He suddenly accelerated, charging towards Zhao Wu at an even faster pace, roaring hysterically.
“Don’t you pride yourself on being noble? Don’t you think you’re high and mighty? I’ll let you know, even if I die, I’ll make sure someone from your Zhao family is buried with me!”
Zhao Wu found these words even more incomprehensible.
He truly couldn’t understand how he, or the Zhao family, had offended Gou Tui Zhi.
Was it because Wang Shan of Le City was cultivated by the Zhao family before?
But wasn’t Wang Shan’s collusion with ability users his personal act?
And the plot with Dr. Sim to kill Gou Tui Zhi’s father, Gou Feng, and his second uncle, Gou Xing Zhi, was not the Zhao family’s intention either.
Then why did Gou Tui Zhi harbor such hatred towards him?
Despite Zhao Wu’s myriad of doubts, Gou Tui Zhi, whose speed had now drastically increased, was getting closer and closer.
With no time to ponder Gou Tui Zhi’s true intentions, Zhao Wu quickly called out to Han Lang and Shan Nan for help.
“Boss, Deputy Shan, help!”
Shan Nan and Han Lang were also in a frenzy.
But with Gou Tui Zhi’s relentless pursuit, they simply couldn’t keep up.
Even with their willingness, they were powerless!
Shan Nan shouted in desperation.
“We can’t keep up, Zhao Wu! Try to slow down! Otherwise, we can’t help you at all!”
Hearing Shan Nan’s words, Zhao Wu looked surprised.
He quickly replied.
“No, Deputy Shan. Gou Tui Zhi is too close. If I slow down, with his current ferocity, he’ll finish me off in two or three moves! Let’s think of another way!”
Instantly, Shan Nan and Liu Xiao Xiao’s group were at a loss.
Although it was only a matter of time before their speed caught up to Gou Tui Zhi.
The problem was that before they could catch up, Gou Tui Zhi would definitely catch up to Zhao Wu.
Even if the gap was only a breath or two.
In a battle of this intensity, two or three breaths were enough for Gou Tui Zhi to completely kill Zhao Wu.
Just as the situation became extremely critical, Han Lang suddenly shouted at Zhao Wu.
“Zhao Wu, use your black brick to tank a hit from Gou Tui Zhi, find a way to maneuver, and we’ll be there to cover immediately!”
Han Lang’s words reminded Zhao Wu.
Although Gou Tui Zhi was more ferocious now than when he attacked Ma Long, Zhao Wu’s strength was also higher than Ma Long’s.
Under the defense of the black brick, tanking a blow from Gou Tui Zhi should be no problem.
Then, using this opportunity to circle back towards Shan Nan and the others, he would surely rendezvous with Shan Nan before Gou Tui Zhi’s second attack.
As long as Shan Nan reacted quickly enough, he could intercept Gou Tui Zhi’s second strike for Zhao Wu.
Not only would the crisis be averted, but Shan Nan could also completely tie down Gou Tui Zhi.
Then, combined with the offensive efforts of Liu Xiao Xiao and Han Lang, completely eliminating the almost exhausted Gou Tui Zhi would be a matter of moments!
Seeing Gou Tui Zhi’s figure drawing nearer, Zhao Wu had no more time to hesitate.
Without further thought, he suddenly stopped, simultaneously manifesting the black brick.
Gou Tui Zhi naturally wouldn’t miss such an opportunity. He instantly gathered energy into his iron fist and unhesitatingly smashed down with immense force.
Seeing Gou Tui Zhi’s powerful punch, Zhao Wu’s heart could only be described as pounding.
He couldn’t think at all, only managing to control the manifested black brick to block between himself and Gou Tui Zhi with all his might.
At the same time, he crouched, spun, and without any pause, changed direction, heading towards Shan Nan.
Seeing Shan Nan so close, Zhao Wu couldn’t help but feel a surge of joy.
However, immediately after.
An extremely powerful surge of energy slammed into the black iron.
With a deafening “boom.”
Even the black iron, weighing thousands of pounds after being manifested, was sent flying by the punch.
The black iron, carrying residual force, slammed into Zhao Wu, who was about to break free.
“Ugh!”
A muffled groan.
Zhao Wu’s shoulder blade on his back took the full impact.
His body was also sent flying sideways by the collision.
Fortunately, Shan Nan had arrived at this moment. He unhesitatingly caught Zhao Wu, safely placing him behind him, and immediately asked with concern.
“Are you alright?”
Zhao Wu rubbed his back and replied with a grimace.
“Nothing serious, just a bit sore!”
Hearing this answer, Shan Nan knew that Zhao Wu had only sustained minor injuries from the heavy blow.
He stopped fussing over Zhao Wu and instead looked at Gou Tui Zhi vigilantly, saying softly.
“Recover yourself with your cultivation, we’ll deal with Gou Tui Zhi first!”
Zhao Wu nodded hurriedly.
“Okay! Don’t worry, I’ll just circulate my spiritual energy to clear things up and be back to help soon!”
Shan Nan no longer paid attention to Zhao Wu, instead raising his fist and launching an attack on Gou Tui Zhi.
Gou Tui Zhi, seeing Zhao Wu safely protected, was so enraged his eyes nearly spewed fire.
But the problem was that Zhao Wu was now shielded behind Shan Nan.
If he still wanted to pursue Zhao Wu, he would have to defeat Shan Nan first.
And Shan Nan was not someone to be easily defeated.
Moreover, Liu Xiao Xiao and Han Lang were about to arrive from the other side.
Whether he could escape was a question, let alone think about killing anyone!
As he was thinking, Shan Nan’s attack was already upon him.
Gou Tui Zhi had no time to think and immediately met the attack.
Their fists collided, unleashing immense energy.
But after this exchange, Shan Nan’s figure remained still, while Gou Tui Zhi was forced back nearly ten meters!
Seeing this, Han Lang and the others rejoiced.
Based on the previous encounters between Shan Nan and Gou Tui Zhi.
Gou Tui Zhi, who had originally held a slight advantage over Shan Nan, was now too depleted and injured from the prolonged pursuit to contend with Shan Nan anymore!
This also indicated that Gou Tui Zhi had now completely become a trapped beast, caught in their net!
Shan Nan seemed to have seen through everyone’s thoughts, and at this moment, he still sternly reminded them.
“Everyone, don’t underestimate him. Beware of Gou Tui Zhi’s desperate counterattack! We absolutely cannot afford to suffer any more casualties at this final moment!”
Hearing Shan Nan’s reminder, everyone immediately became serious.
They all quickly gathered around Shan Nan, intently watching Gou Tui Zhi, ready for battle.
“Attack!”
At Shan Nan’s command.
Han Lang and the others moved in unison.
They all unleashed their strongest killing moves towards Gou Tui Zhi.
Under such an onslaught, how could Gou Tui Zhi resist?
He could only fight with his back against the wall, fully defending against Shan Nan’s attack, while allowing Liu Xiao Xiao and the others’ attacks to rain down on him.
“Pfft!”
With a mouthful of blood spewing out.
Han Lang’s golden needle also pierced through Gou Tui Zhi’s forehead.
Tang Geng’s flying sword swiftly sliced across his throat.
At this point.
Gou Tui Zhi, filled with immense hatred, met his end.
