Top-class Bodyguard

Chapter 690 - 669: Liang Hongkuan's Death

The other experts had cold sneers on their faces. Liang Hongkuan stood there, feeling the True Qi in his body rapidly draining away, and a very unusual poison spreading within him.

Liang Hongkuan looked at the others, and at this moment, the other experts also made their moves, with several people charging up to attack him directly.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

In just an instant, Liang Hongkuan was hit many times, and with the final blow, he was sent flying.

Liang Hongkuan's body smashed into a tree, the impact breaking it in half.

He lay on the ground, coughing up blood from his mouth. He looked at the dozen or so experts, his vision seeming to blur.

"Make him swallow it."

Liu took out a pill.

An expert came over, grabbed Liang Hongkuan's jaw, and forced the pill down his throat.

"This will temporarily suppress the poison in your body. You won't die too quickly, but the pain you feel won't lessen. Liang Hongkuan, I advise you to obediently hand over the Cultivation Technique, and I'll give you a swift death."

Liang Hongkuan gasped, looking at them, "Stop dreaming. You killed my entire sect back then, and I haven't avenged that yet."

"You won't have the chance."

Daoist Poison sneered coldly, then stomped hard on Liang Hongkuan's chest.

"Ah!"

Liang Hongkuan cried out in pain.

"Liang Hongkuan, you should know, with our methods, there are many ways to torture you. So you better hand it over. We've been stuck at the Grandmaster level for a long time. If you hand it over, it would be a great contribution to us."

An expert chuckled sinisterly.

"There are rumors in the Jianghu that the Rebirth Sect has a Cultivation Technique that allows someone to reach the Spirit Realm with 100% certainty, and the Spirit Realm means longer life and greater power." Another expert spoke, "Liang Hongkuan, hand it over."

"If such a technique really existed, do you think I'd be running from you?" Liang Hongkuan coughed up blood.

Daoist Poison and the others frowned, but then he sneered: "Don't play games with us. If it's not the case, why would you hide here in Miaojiang for more than twenty years?"

"Could it be, back then, you weren't the only one who escaped?" Liu sneered, "I heard that, Mr. Liang, when you were over forty, you had a daughter. Could it be for her?"

Liang Hongkuan's eyes opened wide, filled with an almost devouring anger.

"It seems that's indeed the case. If I'm not mistaken, your daughter is also in the Miao Village, isn't she?"

Daoist Poison had a cold smile on his face, "Liang Hongkuan, if we catch your daughter, do you know what fate awaits her?"

"Scoundrels! I want your lives!"

Liang Hongkuan roared to the sky, but in the next second, his chest was stomped on again.

"Stop dreaming, just like this, and you still think you can kill us? We could crush you at any moment. Hand over the Cultivation Technique!"

Liang Hongkuan's face was filled with fury, and at that moment, he felt the True Qi in him suddenly surge, and it seemed as if a strange energy from the surrounding world was pouring into his body.

At this moment, Liang Hongkuan felt as if he could control the air.

Liang Hongkuan's eyes widened with anger, and at this moment, with a wave of his hand, terrifying Spiritual Qi transformed into a giant hand, slamming towards an expert in front!

Boom!

The person was sent flying, and as Daoist Poison and the others reacted, an invisible energy exploded around Liang Hongkuan, knocking everyone around him away!

Liang Hongkuan stood up again, and Daoist Poison and the others frowned.

What's going on?

Liang Hongkuan's eyes were filled with endless rage. With a swift grab to his side, several large trees were forcibly uprooted, and with a toss of his hand, they hurled towards Daoist Poison and the others!

"He's broken through!"

Daoist Poison said deeply, his eyes flashing with an intense cold gleam, "Kill him, don't hesitate."

"If we kill him, what about the Cultivation Technique?" an expert shouted.

"Doesn't he have a daughter? We'll deal with her!"

The other experts realized this, showing no mercy, and charged towards Liang Hongkuan.

Daoist Poison slashed with the sword in his hand, splitting the incoming trees in two!

As Liang Hongkuan saw an expert rushing towards him, a fierce killing intent flashed in his eyes. With a reach of his right hand, and a grip in the void, the expert felt as though an invisible hand clutched his throat!

And at this moment, he felt the air within him being rapidly drained, his breathing becoming more and more rapid!

Liu hurled another hidden weapon at Liang Hongkuan, but this time, they all clattered uselessly to the ground.

Another expert charged over, and with a wave of Liang Hongkuan's left hand, torrenting Spiritual Qi sent them flying!

"Is the Spirit Realm this terrifying?"

Many experts' eyes were filled with seriousness, but a few showed greater excitement.

"He must have learned the Cultivation Technique!"

At this realization, everyone's eyes turned red.

In the face of profit, nothing else mattered.

These experts were like madmen, the one formerly held by Liang Hongkuan had already died.

Just as Liang Hongkuan was about to continue his counterattack, suddenly, he felt a sharp pain. The poison within him acted up again, and he was only halfway into the Spirit Realm.

Daoist Poison and the others seized this opportunity and charged again.

"Ah!"

Liang Hongkuan roared, knocking away everyone in front and around him, but suddenly, Daoist Poison from behind stabbed him with a sword.

Plop!

The blood-covered blade tip pierced through from behind Liang Hongkuan, causing his body to freeze, but at that moment, another expert came over and lashed a whip mercilessly onto his left arm, pulling hard. Blood gushed out, and Liang Hongkuan's left arm was forcibly torn off!

Liang Hongkuan cried out in agony, but it was already too late.

"Just quietly go to your death. We'll get the Cultivation Technique from your daughter."

Daoist Poison chuckled coldly, withdrawing his sword and stabbing it viciously into Liang Hongkuan again.

...

In the barrier forest, deep within a cave, at the icy cold pool's bottom, the serpent's eyes suddenly reopened.

This time, it felt something was off with its abdomen.

A flame-like thing seemed to be igniting, slowly glowing red, and its flicker was growing increasingly intense.

"Hiss"

Bubbles rose as the serpent blew them out, its crown fully expanding on its snake face, indicating its alert status.

Hissing again, the serpent's eyes seemed to show pain, and the red glow in its belly intensified.
