A Man Like None Other

Chapter 5253

However, just as his divine sense touched the edge of a black palace in the valley, a fierce, murderous intent suddenly locked onto him!

“Someone’s spying!” A sharp shout rang out from the valley, followed by several powerful auras rising into the sky at astonishing speed, heading straight for their hiding place!

“Oh no, we’ve been discovered!”

David’s face changed, and he abruptly retracted his divine sense, pulling Hu Mazi away and running. “Retreat!”noveldrama

Almost the moment they moved, several dark demonic lights had already struck the col where they had been hiding, shattering huge rocks and filling the air with smoke and dust.

“Catch them!”

“You dare to spy outside Black Wind Valley? You’re courting death!”

Dozens of demon cultivators swarmed out of the valley, led by a fifth-rank Earth Immortal cultivator. His face was ferocious, and he moved at breakneck speed, closing the gap in an instant.

David and Hu Mazi didn’t dare pause, increasing their speed to the limit and dashing towards Sword Saint City.

The demon cultivators behind them were relentless in their pursuit, unleashing a barrage of vicious spells and hidden weapons that put them in imminent danger.

“These sons of bit**es! They’re so fast!”

Hu Mazi cursed as he dodged, turning back and throwing several talismans, which exploded into a burst of flames, temporarily halting the pursuers.

David intently sensed the presence behind him, constantly adjusting his direction and using the terrain to dodge attacks.

He secretly thanked himself for not rushing in; otherwise, he would have been surrounded by them, unable to escape.

The two men ran furiously, relying on their familiarity with Sword Saint City’s direction and David’s skillful evasions at crucial moments. They finally, after suffering some minor injuries, rushed into the city’s gates.

The demon cultivators, chasing them to the gates, seemed wary and afraid to enter. They could only curse furiously outside before leaving in a huff.

David and Hu Mazi leaned against the city wall, breathing heavily, their bodies drenched in sweat, their faces still etched with a look of shock.

“Damn, I almost got killed there,” Hu

Mazi said with a lingering fear, wiping the dust from his face.

Just then, a familiar figure trotted over. It was Ling Xue.

Seeing the two men’s bewildered appearance, she was startled. “Brother Chen, Master Hu, how did you get into this state?”

David took a deep breath and briefly recounted his encounter.

Ling Xue’s expression changed slightly after hearing this. “I’m glad you’re all right. Come with me! Master wants to see you.”

Following Ling Xue, the two returned to Mo Chen’s courtyard.

Mo Chen was sitting at a stone table, sipping tea. Seeing them enter, he put down his cup, glanced at them, and said calmly, “So you went to Black Wind Valley?”

“Yes, Senior,”

David said with a bow. “But something’s amiss in Black Wind Valley.”

He told Mo Chen all about his findings, including the demonic cultivators’ aura, which was different from that of the Evil Dao Hall, and how they were hunted down after being discovered.

Mo Chen nodded. “As expected, Black Wind Valley can’t possibly be a branch of the Evil Dao Hall.”

“Why?” David asked.

“The demonic cultivators in Black Wind Valley are from the Blood Demon lineage. Their cultivation method relies on sucking the blood of other cultivators to improve their abilities. Their methods are brutal, but

they differ greatly from the Evil Dao Hall’s focus on refining the soul,” Mo Chen explained. “Furthermore, the Blood Demon lineage is known for its violent and vengeful nature. You were lucky to escape from their clutches. If you had truly broken in, you probably wouldn’t have gotten out.”

David and Hu Mazi exchanged a glance, both feeling a chill in their hearts, and a surge of anger rising in their veins.

“So, we were deceived by that information building?”

Hu Mazi angrily asked. “The one million immortal stones were just a fake message?”
