What do you mean by saying that the corpses I sew are all ominous creatures?

The water boiled.

What was originally just localized churning water now seemed to be boiling over, with countless dead fish being tossed into the air by the surging current.

"They're here!"

Li Qing shouted and suddenly threw a handful of glutinous rice forward.

"boom!"

A dark shadow broke through the water, sending up a spray of black water everywhere.

That thing was incredibly fast; once it reached the shore, it pounced straight on Li Qing!

It was extremely fast, but I was faster than it.

"Go back!"

The steel plate beneath my feet emitted a teeth-grinding twisting sound, and I vanished from my spot in an instant.

The murderous aura within him surged and poured into the willow-leaf knife in his hand.

The blade sliced ​​through the air with a sharp whistling sound.

"clang--!"

Sparks flew everywhere.

The scalpel struck the outstretched claws of the dark figure with precision, producing a deafening clang of metal clashing.

The tremendous recoil force traveled up my arm, but I didn't budge.

Instead, the dark figure was forcefully cleaved by my blade and sent flying backward, crashing heavily into a pile of rubble on the shore.

It was only then that I saw what this thing really looked like.

Its entire body was swollen and purple, and its fingers were extremely long, with nails like black daggers that gleamed coldly in the dim light.

The most terrifying thing was its face, where the features were twisted and dislocated, and its mouth was full of fine, sharp fangs, emitting a beast-like growl at us.

This is Zhao Jianguo's missing father, who has now become an invulnerable water demon corpse.

"roar!"

The water-evil bounced off the ground, landing on all fours, and pounced again like a giant lizard.

"Li Qing, cut off its escape route!"

I did not retreat even a step, nor did I have any intention of using the Pi Sha.

I don't need to risk my life for this level of evil spirit.

"Alright! The net of heaven and earth, bind them!"

The ink line in Li Qing's hand instantly shot out, weaving in the air into a large red and black net that descended upon him.

As soon as the ink line touched the water splatter, it emitted a sizzling sound and billowed white smoke.

The water monster roared in agony, struggling frantically as it tried to tear the net apart.

"Now."

A cold glint flashed in my eyes, and I instantly lunged forward.

My left hand was cleaved into a claw, and the fingertips of my sewn left hand were shrouded in a chilling aura, sharper than a blade.

I grabbed the back of the Water Fiend's neck, and the liquid fiendish energy surged violently into its body, instantly dispersing the corpse energy that had gathered at the spine of the dragon.

At the same time, the scalpel in his right hand flew around.

Wrist, ankle, knee, elbow joint.

Four precise cuts severed the major tendons of its limbs.

"Get down!"

I roared, pressed down on the water demon's massive head with one hand, and slammed it hard onto the ground.

"boom!"

Debris flew everywhere, and a shallow crater was created in the ground.

The immensely powerful water demon was now like a broken bone; although it was still roaring wildly, it could only writhe on the ground and could no longer get up.

The whole process took less than half a minute.

This is the crushing power of absolute strength.

I straightened up, turned to look at Zhao Jianguo who had been hiding behind the shipping container, and said calmly, "Boss Zhao, I have accomplished my mission. Your father... has returned."

Zhao Jianguo came out from behind the container.

The fear and panic on his face seemed to vanish in that instant, replaced by an indescribable, complex expression.

He walked step by step toward the still convulsing water demon, his steps steady, even with a hint of urgency.

"Okay...okay."

Zhao Jianguo stopped five meters away from us, his eyes fixed on the water sprite on the ground, his voice trembling slightly.

"What impressive skills. I never expected that the two masters, at such a young age, would possess such overwhelming power, capable of suppressing even such a ferocious creature with ease."

"If you take someone's money, you have to do their bidding."

Li Qing put away the ink line and clapped his hands with a grin.

"Boss Zhao, now that we've found the person, shouldn't we talk about the final payment?"

"The final payment...of course I have to pay."

Zhao Jianguo suddenly laughed.

"I'll give them to you right now."

Before he could finish speaking, something unexpected happened!

Zhao Jianguo suddenly raised his right hand, and a dark light shot out from his sleeve!

That wasn't some kind of hidden weapon, it was a poisonous snake!

But the snake's target wasn't me, but Li Qing, who had just let his guard down and was reeling in the line!

At the same time, he flipped his left hand, and a black iron nail appeared in his palm. He moved with incredible speed, rushing towards my back!

This set of movements was fluid and ruthless; where was the image of a pampered wealthy businessman?

This is clearly a top-tier expert who has been immersed in the art of killing for many years!

The distance is too close.

Five meters is nothing more than a blink of an eye for a master of this level.

If it were an ordinary person, or even an ordinary insider, they would probably be a corpse by now.

Unfortunately, he was facing me and Li Qing.

"I was prepared for this, you old fool!"

As if he had eyes in the back of his head, Li Qing dodged the snake's bite the instant the dark light shot out.

At the same time, he suddenly flipped the compass in his hand, slamming it down like a shield onto the snake's vital spot.

"Snapped!"

Blood and flesh flew everywhere.

And I didn't even turn my head.

Just as the black nail was about to pierce my clothes, I swung my knife in a backhand motion.

The lancet struck the iron nail in mid-air with a piercing scraping sound.

Using that force, I spun around, and my left leg, like a whip, lashed out with a whistling sound, striking Zhao Jianguo hard in the chest.

Zhao Jianguo clearly didn't expect us to react so quickly, but he was a master after all. He forced a change of move in mid-air, crossing his arms to protect his chest.

"Bang!"

A muffled thud.

Zhao Jianguo was sent flying several meters by my kick, his feet carving two deep furrows in the ground before he finally came to a stop.

"Cough cough..."

Zhao Jianguo patted the dust off his sleeves and slowly straightened up.

His previously refined and easygoing facade was completely shattered, and his face was contorted with rage.

"When...did you find it?"

Zhao Jianguo asked in a gloomy tone.

"Starting last night."

I turned around, the scalpel twirling lightly between my fingers, my tone indifferent.

"When your nephew Zhao Tianhao died, although you appeared very grief-stricken, there was not a trace of regret in your eyes."

This doesn't match the image of a loving father you project to us at all.

Moreover, even a wealthy man like Lin Heng couldn't remain calm in the face of such a life-threatening supernatural situation.

But you remained far too calm, Boss Zhao.

"and……"

Li Qing chimed in from the side, sneering, "The smell on you is so strange. I wasn't sure what it was before, but when I got to the shipyard, it smelled exactly like the water demons here."

"This dead fish worshipping corpses scheme at the old shipyard, wasn't it all orchestrated by you?"

I stared at Zhao Jianguo and said, word by word, "Zhao Tianhao is just a decoy, a scapegoat you pushed out."

If I'm not mistaken, the so-called master behind him is actually one of your people.

Even Zhao Tianhao's death was your doing, wasn't it?

"Boss Zhao, we have no grudges or enemies, but I'm very curious, who is behind you?"

"You went to such lengths to trick the two of us into this?"
