Chapter 3403 — A Hard-Won Victory
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 2
As for force, though Wei Zhao had never taken a direct hit, he could still sense the power of their punches from the side—from the sheer momentum it was clear that these fists had shriveled from the strength of late Heaven rank experts down to that of the mid Heaven rank.
The discovery surprised Wei Zhao somewhat. Could it be that even the biohumans' physical strength and true qi were running out?
With that thought, Wei Zhao kept weaving and circling, and sure enough, what happened next confirmed his earlier guess: the two grew slower and slower, and their force smaller and smaller!
At last, at the nineteenth minute, both creatures' movements turned uncoordinated, and the force of their attacks had dropped to that of the early Heaven rank.
"We're out!" The hypnotist knew that at this rate both biohumans would die on their own and could no longer do anything to Wei Zhao, so he decisively chose to leave. If he lingered here until the biohumans died, he might well not get away.
Little Pure had seen the problem too. He started the car, ready to drive off.
"Lingshan, stop that car!" The two biohumans no longer posed any threat to Wei Zhao, so he could now spare some attention for other things. Seeing the van actually starting up, he quickly ordered Qiu Lingshan to block it.
Wei Zhao need not have said it—Qiu Lingshan had already noticed something wrong with the van; there were actually people inside it! Together with Tang Taizhong, Tang Lingtou, Tang Lao'er and Tang Yuyu, she surrounded the vehicle!
Little Pure was startled and slammed his foot on the accelerator, trying to ram straight through, but to his regret Tang Taizhong reached out and held the van back with one hand alone, so that it could not advance even half a fraction. The tires screeched shrilly against the ground, yet there was nothing the van could do to Tang Taizhong.
Never mind that Tang Taizhong could not deal with the biohumans—blocking a single van was, for a Heaven rank expert like him, a piece of cake. And Qiu Lingshan, Tang Lingtou and the others seized the chance to charge straight onto the van and drag Little Pure and the hypnotist out.
The two were not cultivators at all and had no means of resistance whatsoever. Unwilling to suffer, they could only surrender.
Just as Little Pure and the hypnotist were captured, the two biohumans happened to crash to the ground, growing utterly motionless.
This situation surprised Wei Zhao a little, though it was not wholly unexpected. He reached out to check the two biohumans' pulses and breathing; both had stopped. He was, after all, a highly skilled doctor, and could tell true death from feigned.
Only once he saw that they were truly done for did Wei Zhao hurry over to Yu Xiaoke and examine her condition.
She still had breath and a pulse, which let Wei Zhao breathe a slight sigh of relief—but the next moment, his expression turned exceedingly odd.
Yu Xiaoke's breathing and pulse were now utterly abnormal! They had, so to speak, become extremely slow, like the trance-breathing of a hibernating animal—there was still life in her, yet she was unlike a normal person!
And there was no injured part anywhere in Yu Xiaoke's body. Wei Zhao examined her once over and found that she was entirely normal in every respect! (To be continued...)
