The intense unease in my heart had become even more obvious, and the scorching feeling in my chest made me even more annoyed. My gaze quickly searched the surroundings of this simple and crude room. Very quickly, I saw the location of the ceiling along the bare wall.

This room had clearly been occupied by someone not long ago. Someone must have wanted to hide something, but when I looked up at the ceiling, I instinctively pulled Tang Rou and ran out. I think this was some sort of prediction of danger.

Facts proved once again the importance of my instincts. Right when Tang Rou and I arrived at the entrance, we heard a muffled sound from above us. I was too familiar with this sound.

Even though Tang Rou and I had already rushed out of the room, we were still unable to completely escape, so a wave of scorching air instantly filled the room. This wasn't just a surge of yin and yang energy, but a type of burning that resembled a natural gas explosion, making Tang Rou and I feel unbearable pain.

"This bastard is on the roof."

I cursed, and immediately got up from the floor. I didn't notice the vertical iron bars in the corner of the loft where the wall stood, which could be climbed to the roof for inspection.

Previously, Tang Rou and I were too worried, so we didn't think that guy would run up to the roof. In addition, I felt that it was impossible for an old man to climb up with his back hunched over.

In a few steps, I reached the bottom of the ladder and leaped up, grabbing onto the bottom one before quickly climbing up. The top cover was already opened and normally, it should have been covered by a lid to prevent blood from dripping down.

In other words, that old man ran to the top of the building. No wonder Tang Rou and I didn't see him downstairs, nor did we see him in the room.

"Be careful, don't get ambushed by that guy."

Tang Rou was covering for me. I didn't care too much at this time. If I hadn't seen the opportunity earlier, then the other side would have already been killed along with Tang Rou. No matter what, I couldn't let that guy go.

Just as I was about to reach the top of the cave entrance, I saw that ugly old face of mine, but this time, the fierceness in the other party's eyes had already burst out without any concealment. I knew that if I went up now, I would definitely be attacked, or even killed, but it was already too late for me to hesitate, so I clenched my teeth and unleashed my explosive strength, directly piercing through the cave entrance.

Sure enough, a ray of light shot towards my throat. I had long since prepared myself to use my Life Death Blade to block it. At the same time, I extended my hand to support the edge of the hole as my body finally flipped over.

It was that stooped old man. At this moment, he was like a spinning top, rapidly attacking me. Not far away from me, there were some scented ashes and yellow talismans scattered on the roof. These were the traces of the formation array.

"Who exactly are you? Why did you attack us? "

I blocked the opponent's attack while questioning him, but this old man didn't say a word and continued to attack me. There was a weirdly shaped dagger in his hand, and when he used it, he didn't hold the hilt, but used two fingers to hold onto a thin blade. No wonder it looked so strange.

However, this person's attack angle and timing were very precise. In just a few exchanges of moves, I was already drenched in cold sweat. If I didn't have my unique physique and was able to clearly distinguish the traces of the enemy's attacks, I would have been killed long ago.

Tang Rou had already climbed up from below and was standing on the side, ready to provide support at any time.

"You won't be able to run away today. You also killed that old lady, right? Don't you know that there are always days in the underworld? If you kill someone, aren't you afraid of the old lady? A ghost will come find you?"

This was something that Tang Rou had specially bought recently. Not only was this swing very easy to carry, but more importantly, there was a very sophisticated storage battery inside the swing. As long as she pressed the switch and touched it, she would immediately suffer an intense electric shock.

With Tang Rou joining the battle, the opponent was already showing signs of defeat. After all, the opponent's body was so crooked that it looked like it only had me and Tang Rou's height, and the weapon was only a blade about a foot long. If this guy's reaction speed wasn't quick, I would have already knocked him down long ago.

"Look, that old lady is just behind you, pinching your neck."

Tang Rou was still able to use psychological attacks at this moment, which made me admire her a bit. However, that guy seemed to have turned a deaf ear to her and continued to attack us.

Finally, I found the slightest flaw in his movements, so I quickly jumped in and raised my leg to kick his shoulder. Tang Rou took this opportunity to switch on the motor that she used to swing her rod on and a blue light flashed. The man's pupils contracted and she took a kick from me, rolling towards the edge of the building.

I used a bit too much strength in this kick, so this guy rolled all the way to the edge of the roof, and almost fell down. At this moment, I actually felt a bit panicked, because this person was really strange, I didn't want him to fall down just like that.

However, the facts proved that my worry was unnecessary. This fellow was just about to roll down the wall when he suddenly raised his leg and kicked a steel wire at the edge of the wall. Then, his entire body charged towards me like a ball.
