Chapter 127 The Pale Shadow? Liquidation! (2nd update! 5000 words, please subscribe!)

The Bloodthirsty Earl hadn't run far when he discovered that the god of death behind him had caught up, and his speed was no slower than his own!

"How is this possible? The Black Serpent Knight is only strong in defense, when did he become so fast? You're not the Black Serpent Knight, are you?" the Bloody Earl exclaimed.

Li Wei did not answer. He suddenly burst forth, closing in on the Bloody Count. The Bloody Count had no choice but to stop and continue attacking Li Wei with his spear.

But Li Wei grabbed his blood-red spear with his large hand and pulled him back.

At the same time, a palm struck Bloody Earl hard in the chest.

With just one palm strike, the Bloodthirsty Earl was sent flying like a kite with a broken string, landing painfully on the ground.

"How can the difference be so huge?" The Bloodthirsty Earl questioned the meaning of life.

Even the Duke of Black Mountain couldn't possibly exert such overwhelming power over me.

Could it be that the Black Serpent Knight has been resurrected and returned, becoming a legendary knight?

Isn't this the kind of plot that only appears in the stories of bards?

The Bloodthirsty Earl's mind was in complete turmoil.

The power of the person before him had exceeded his previous understanding.

Watching the figure approach like a demon god.

He knew he was likely in grave danger.

Li Wei gave the Bloodthirsty Earl another sound beating.

The Bloody Earl was on the verge of death, looking like a weak lamb in front of Li Wei.

He pried open the Blood Count's mouth and then placed the Kiss of the Human-Faced Spider inside, forcing him to swallow it and completely integrate it into his body, thus preventing him from using the black energy to expel the poison.

Then Livy left the castle with the Bloody Earl.

We arrived at a quiet place.

"What did you just give me to eat?" the Bloody Count asked.

His intuition told him that it must be some kind of poison.

"It's nothing, just a little bit of poison that will make you wish you were dead."

"When this poison takes effect, you'll feel like ten thousand spiders are biting you in your head, your heart, your limbs, and your internal organs. It will cause you excruciating pain and itching, making you wish you were dead," Li Wei said with a smile.

"You, you are so vicious, so despicable." The Bloody Earl almost fainted.

"Compared to you and the Duke of Black Mountain, I am still far inferior," Levi sighed.

"Who are you? The Black Serpent Knight is dead, and the Black Serpent family is gone. There's no way anyone in this world could possess such powerful black scale-like black energy... Wait... You're Li Wei?!" The Bloody Earl's expression changed, as if he had remembered something even more terrifying.

"Next, I'll ask you questions and you'll answer them. If you behave well, I'll give you the antidote and spare your life. All you need to do is cooperate with me on a few things."

Otherwise, I will let you die in agony, tormented by a thousand spiders devouring your heart, and everything you possess—your title, your territory, your descendants—will vanish like a dream.” Li Wei said with a smile, speaking casually.

He did not answer the Bloody Earl's question directly, which made the Bloody Earl even more frightened.

With Li Wei's current strength, assassinating the entire Bloody Earl family wouldn't be difficult at all.

The Bloody Earl himself may not be afraid of death, but Li Wei knows that for the nobles of this world, what they fear most is not death, but the extinction of their family lineage.

Sure enough, upon hearing that Li Wei was going to take action against his family...

The Bloodthirsty Earl was no longer calm.

"What do you want me to do?" the Bloody Count asked.

The man in front of me definitely has that kind of strength.

The opponent was a powerhouse even more terrifying than a top-tier Grand Knight.

Even the Duke of Montenegro, as it stands, is no match for Li Wei.

Next, Li Wei interrogated the Bloody Earl.

The Bloody Earl recounted everything he knew to Li Wei in detail.

"Now you can go back. Remember our agreement." After the interrogation was over, Li Wei patted the Bloodthirsty Count on the shoulder and said kindly, like an old friend.

The Bloodthirsty Earl nodded mechanically and left without looking back.

He had just witnessed firsthand the terror of the person before him.

This has already deviated from his understanding of the concept of a great knight.

Powerful, mysterious, and invincible, like a demon king!

Whether he was the Black Serpent Knight or Baron Levi, neither of them were enemies he should provoke.

Li Wei squinted, unafraid that the Bloody Earl would go to the Black Mountain Duke to complain.

Since he dared to seek revenge against the Duke of Black Mountain, it means he had absolute confidence in his own strength.

Possessing a variety of assassination techniques and extraordinary abilities, he was more terrifying to a great knight like the Duke of Black Mountain than a thousand troops.

Moreover, there is the Sword of Damocles, the Kiss of the Spider-Faced, hanging over the Blood Count's head.

If the Bloodthirsty Earl harbors any disloyalty, the Grand Knight will surely die without the antidote.

The Bloody Earl was a coward who feared death, so the poison should still be effective.

Li Wei also learned about the Duke of Black Mountain's situation from the Bloody Earl.

First of all, the Duke of Black Mountain is undoubtedly a top-tier Grand Knight.

However, even the Bloodthirsty Earl couldn't say exactly how strong he was; in short, he couldn't last ten rounds against the Duke of Black Mountain.

This reflects the personal strength of the Duke of Black Mountain. In addition, the Duke of Black Mountain has indeed mastered some of the methods of evil spirits.

This was something the Bloodthirsty Earl witnessed firsthand, but he didn't know exactly how it was controlled.

This is the Duke of Montenegro's secret.

Now, the Duke of Blackmountain sits high on the Storm Throne in Stormwind City by the sea.

He was surrounded by several high knights, an elite guard of several hundred knights, and an army of several thousand, who were constantly protecting the throne, ensuring its airtight protection, in case the Duke of Black Mountain's enemies used decapitation tactics against him.

In the eyes of most people in this world, no one can shake the Duke of Montenegro.

In addition, Li Wei also learned the true cause of his father's death.

The Duke of Black Mountain was the mastermind behind his father's death; the Bloody Earl and the Silver Veil Earl were accomplices.

It was the Duke of Black Mountain who provided false intelligence, which led my father's army into the encirclement of the Tuva Empire. After my father fought his way out, he was killed by the Duke of Black Mountain himself!

All of this, from beginning to end, was a conspiracy by the ambitious Duke of Montenegro.

Even during the millennium, when the Tuva Empire launched a war against the kingdom, the Duke of Montenegro secretly played a role in fueling the conflict.

It is said that the Duke of Montenegro also knew important figures in the Tuva Empire.

After obtaining the information he wanted from the Bloody Earl.

Livy allowed the Bloody Count to continue playing his role.

Then, when the Bloody Earl had the opportunity to meet or see the Duke of Black Mountain, he would bring himself along as well.

It's not impossible to just unleash your full power and force your way in, but it's unnecessary.

That still carries some risk; it would be safer to use infiltration and assassination.

As for the Bloody Count, once the mission is complete, Li Wei will turn him into a living dead.

Then kill the entire Earl's family, leaving no one alive, eradicating them completely.

With the tulip collar, Li Wei could then take it back.

Going forward, you can choose to continue as the lord yourself, or retire and hand over your territory to someone else to manage while you collect the money.

Besides the information from the Duke of Black Mountain, Li Wei also obtained an interesting piece of information from the Bloody Earl.

It's about the voice of his old nemesis, the dead bird.

As far as the Bloody Earl knew, the Duke of Black Mountain had hired an assassin from the Deathbird's Voice to assassinate a high-ranking nobleman in the south.

The date is set for the end of this month.

This assassin was none other than Li Wei's old acquaintance, the Pale Shadow.

This made Li Wei a little happy.

He was just worried about not being able to find this pale figure.

I never thought we'd be able to meet again so soon.

"I'm really looking forward to it."

Li Wei was filled with emotion.

He lived in the city of flowers from then on.

While inquiring about the information he needed at the Shining Tavern, he silently cultivated himself.

During this time, his Giant Breathing Technique had reached level six.

Having the blood of the Great Ice Ape King, the Giant Breathing Technique is cultivated exceptionally quickly.

Moreover, Li Wei has now exhausted countless breathing techniques to their limits.

This made his breathing technique practice faster and faster.

Even a breathing technique as difficult as Giant Breathing poses no challenge to Li Wei.

He has also mastered the basics of the Crimson Lotus Breathing Technique, the Thunder Wolf Breathing Technique, and the Elephant Tortoise Breathing Technique.

Li Wei's breathing technique system is now basically complete.

The defensive breathing technique should focus on the Black Serpent, while all other breathing techniques should be used to break through the limits of the Black Serpent.

Powerful breathing techniques, primarily based on red lotus.

For now, the speed-type breathing technique will primarily focus on the Siren.

Endurance-based breathing techniques, primarily using blood whales.

The sensory breathing method primarily uses the human-faced spider.

As for the body type, for now, we will focus on the Vortex Beast. If a better alternative becomes available in the future, we will switch to cultivating a better breathing technique. After all, the quality of the Vortex Beast is too poor, and we can only cultivate up to the seventh level limit.

Meanwhile, the Bloodthirsty Earl on the other side hasn't caused any trouble so far.

To test whether the Bloodthirsty Earl was honest, Li Wei also asked him to produce the breathing technique inheritance diagram.

Although unwilling, the Bloody Earl dared not resist.

His family has been threatened by strangers recently.

This made him realize that Li Wei was not bluffing him.

As for himself, every night when he went to sleep, he felt like he was in a living hell, as if countless spiders were crawling all over his body.

He wasn't sure if the deadly poison Li Wei had mentioned was real, but he dared not gamble; if he lost, he would die!

He can only do whatever Li Wei tells him to do.

In this way, Li Wei obtained another top-level speed-type breathing technique's inheritance diagram.

Blood Beast Breathing Technique.

This is a speed-type breathing technique that can be cultivated to the ninth level limit.

"Perhaps this breathing technique can replace the Siren and become my main focus for speed-type breathing techniques in the future."

After acquiring this breathing technique, Li Wei incorporated it into his cultivation system.

"I've learned too many breathing techniques lately, and I need some time to digest them before I can learn any new ones."

Li Wei awoke from his breathing meditation.

The newly learned Ostrich Mountain, Red Lotus, Giant Tortoise, Thunder Wolf, and Blood Beast five breathing techniques.

All of them are of excellent quality or above.

Once these breathing techniques reach their limit, my strength will increase dramatically again.

Time passed day by day, and soon it was the end of the month.

Li Wei emerged from his meditative state.

"Demon Shark, Demon Mountain, Demon Sea, come with me."

Having made all the necessary preparations, Li Wei, fully armed, led the three Mo brothers out of the city.

He was going to meet the pale shadow.

……

Green worm collar.

The territory of the Scorpion Clan.

This was a notorious family, not well-liked in southern aristocratic circles.

However, it is precisely this family, which is not popular among the southern nobles, that has become one of the few families in the south in recent years that has dared to confront the Duke of Black Mountain head-on. Moreover, the Sacred Scorpion Army of the Poison Scorpion family has caused a lot of trouble for the Black Mountain army.

The leader of the Scorpion Clan was a somewhat ugly old man. He looked very old, but no one in the clan dared to question his authority.

The name of the Scorpion Knight can cure children's night crying.

Inside a lavish public bathhouse, prostitutes frolic in the tub.

Some of them are young and tender, like buds about to bloom; some are plump and mature, dressed in their finest attire; and some are middle-aged, yet still retain their charm.

The Scorpion Knight, whose life force was already depleted, didn't care at all that the woman had drained his last bit of energy.

He was surrounded by women on both sides, drinking fine wine.

This is what a normal aristocratic life should be like.

What kind of nobles are those who cultivate every day like ascetics in order to become stronger?

For example, someone like the White Horse Knight strives to become stronger every day, but in the end, it's all for nothing. Even though he's already so strong, he still can't protect himself.

That's fate!

The Scorpion Knight has come to terms with it.

In the misty atmosphere of the bathhouse, wisps of white vapor drifted by.

The Scorpion Knight felt the prostitute he was holding suddenly sink.

He's a Grand Knight, so he probably doesn't feel much of the poisonous fog.

However, these ordinary people quickly fell into a coma.

Soon, they stopped breathing.

A figure wearing a mask of a death bird appeared on the beam at the top of the bathhouse.

Then he jumped down gently.

The Scorpion Knight casually picked up a weapon, a rapier, and then stood naked in the bath.

Looking at the approaching enemy.

"The one who utters the voice of the dead bird, interesting. Is this the work of the Duke of Black Mountain?" the Scorpion Knight sneered.

The Deathbird's face remained completely calm. He stretched out his right hand, pointed out a finger, and a black light left his body, transforming into a small black sword!

It swept over him in a flash.

The sword was extremely fast.

Although the Scorpion Knight is old, he still has the foundation of a great knight.

He roared and used his rapier to cleave the black projectiles.

Then he rushed over.

"Die! You dare assassinate someone from the Scorpion Clan!"

"Come out, my darlings!"

The Scorpion Knight sneered as he attacked, whistling as he did so.

Unbeknownst to them, the assassin who uttered the death swan's cry had been surrounded by a dense swarm of black scorpions around the bath.

These scorpions are the Sacred Armor Scorpions, one of the most venomous creatures in the world. Like the Ringed-tailed Sea Serpent, they are also one of the raw materials for Li Wei to concoct the Tears of the Spider-Man.

One of the terrifying aspects of the Scorpion Clan is that this clan seems to possess the ability to control scorpions.

"As expected, you are indeed very cautious. Even when visiting brothels, you bring so many poisonous insects. You truly live up to the reputation of the Scorpion Clan." The figure beneath the Deathbird's mask chuckled coldly.

The Armored Scorpion is no ordinary scorpion. Its shell is exceptionally hard, and it has a tenacious vitality. In addition, its venom is potent, and its stinger can penetrate the gaps in its armor to pierce the enemy. Even the Great Knight's black aura protection cannot last long.

Therefore, even as a high knight, he dared not slack off. Right now, there were probably thousands of these scarabs, densely packed together.

In addition, although that old ghost is weak, he was once a great knight, so we should not underestimate him.

He blurred into a blur, determined to finish off the old man quickly! The black dagger pierced towards the Scorpion Knight's chest.

The Scorpion Knight focused on defense while simultaneously controlling an increasing number of armored scorpions to attack.

Outside the public bathhouse building, Li Wei placed his palm on the wall, sensing the fierce battle inside.

"It's already started."

"Demon Shark, Demon Mountain, Demon Sea, each of you seal off one direction."

Li Wei instructed the three Mo brothers to guard their respective positions.

After all, the Pale Shadow's speed was the fastest among all the enemies he had ever seen, so even with Li Wei's strength, he had to be careful that this guy didn't get away.

He then prepared himself before sneaking in.

He watched the two people over there, who were getting very intimate.

I couldn't help but sigh.

"How can they kill anyone like that?"

After Li Wei finished speaking, with a loud bang, like a cannonball shooting directly into the battlefield, he descended from the sky, his two-meter-tall burly body landing on the ground, blasting away a bunch of poisonous scorpions.

This caused both the Pale Shadow and the Scorpion Knight to change their expressions drastically.

The Scorpion Knight thought that the Pale Shadow had a new companion.

The Pale Shadow initially thought they were reinforcements sent by the Scorpion Knight.

Until he saw that familiar white wolf mask, he seemed to recall some bad memories.

"It's you? You little thief!"

The pale shadow was both shocked and furious.

He never imagined that the petty thief he had once looked down upon would possess such terrifying strength.

Assessing the situation, the Scorpion Knight immediately said, "Sir, help me kill the Pale Shadow, and I..."

Before the Scorpion Knight could finish speaking, Li Wei unexpectedly beheaded him with a single sword stroke. His head, with its eyes wide open in death, rolled to the ground, seemingly never expecting that the person before him would be so insane as to kill him outright.

"Noisy."

Li Wei kicked the Scorpion Knight's head off.

The next moment, he saw countless scorpions gather and perch on the head of the Scorpion Knight, seemingly absorbing something from the void.

Livi released Tutankhamun to allow Tutankhamun to collect his soul.

Unexpectedly, Tutan shook his head: "The soul is gone; it was probably devoured by these scorpions."

The scorpion was strange, and Li Wei didn't have time to think about it further, so he could only send Tutankhamun back.

He gazed at the pale figure.

"Now it's just the two of us." Li Wei stretched his limbs, his bones creaking, and the black scales formed by the black energy emitted a metallic clang.

A series of hidden weapons made of black energy shot directly towards Li Wei.

Li Wei neither dodged nor avoided them. These black daggers that had once terrified him were now unable to penetrate the layer of gaseous black scales on his body.

Boom! Li Wei suddenly accelerated!

He flashed in front of the pale shadow in an instant.

The pale shadow was filled with the terror of the dead.

The speed of this person in front of me is actually no weaker than mine?

This was his pride and joy, his strongest asset after so many years as an assassin!

Li Wei's longsword slashed down, and the pale figure barely dodged it.

The next moment, there was a loud bang.

The walls of the public bathhouse suddenly collapsed.

Three burly men, clad in heavy armor, kicked the wall, raised their heavy swords, and charged at the pale shadow.

The pale shadow's expression changed drastically. He realized that he had been surrounded by so many great knights without even knowing when!

He knew he had to do everything he could to escape, or he would die without a burial place!

His body exploded, and the life seed within him vibrated rapidly, as if it were about to burst. He was overdrawing the potential of the life seed!

"Today's grudge will be avenged tomorrow!"

The pale shadow said coldly.

However, a dragon's roar followed, sending shockwaves through the room.

Under the second-tier dragon's might, the pale shadow was struck as if by a heavy hammer.

He paused, for in a duel between masters, every breath was crucial.

The three Mo brothers pounced on him and pinned him down.

"Another one eliminated, out of here!"

Li Wei knew this was not a place to stay for long.

His black aura forced the armored scorpions away, and he led his three brothers to retreat from the battlefield.

"What a pity, we didn't find that old man's method of controlling poisonous insects."
