This was a long-planned attack by Violet.
Lu Ye had previously told her that if the bones on the back of an immortal were severed, the immortal would immediately lose the ability to move.
The girl's goal was to render Tiger incapable of moving.
She then grabbed Hanbei, who was about to fall off the cliff, and pulled him back.
Lu Ye, who had been lying in wait, emerged from behind the stone wall, dragging a huge oil tank in his hand.
"Ugh, you bastard, when...?"
Tiger Road hissed hoarsely, but with his spine broken, it was too difficult for him to move immediately; he had to wait until his injuries healed.
"You don't actually think Hanbei came alone, do you?"
Lu Ye placed the oil can to one side, then used the ladle inside to evenly sprinkle the oil onto Hu Dao's body.
"What do you want?!"
"It's nothing, it's just that it's cold and I wanted to warm myself by the fire." Lu Ye smiled. "And here happens to be a source of fuel that won't die no matter how long it burns."
"You bastard!!"
After evenly sprinkling a layer of oil on the tiger's path.
Lu Ye touched it slightly, very gently, with the torch.
"boom!"
"Aa ...
The flames instantly spread along the oil and engulfed Hu Dao's entire body, but with his spine, which controlled his nerves, severed, he couldn't even roll on the ground.
Lu Ye wasn't idle either. While the fire was burning on one side, he was adding oil on the other side, pouring it out ladle by ladle.
Accompanied by the roars of the tiger, the fire grew stronger and stronger.
Violet was also helping out; the two seemed to be working together seamlessly.
Luye scooped the oil here, while she lifted the oil drum and tilted it so that Luye could splash it more quickly.
Hanbei, who was repairing his body, leaned against the stone wall, looking at the two unusually serious guys, not knowing what to say.
In the end, Tiger's voice completely disappeared, and he himself became a charred corpse with no possibility of resurrection.
"It seems this is the limit of Red-Eyes."
Lu Ye kicked the charred body off the cliff.
Chapter 118 Killing Daoshun
After killing Gao Fenghudao, Lu Ye and the others immediately returned to the stone prison.
Sister Ling is still on the stone platform.
However, the doctor was no longer there.
The short blade that Lu Ye had placed in the crevice of the stone had also disappeared.
The item was triggered, but no corpse was found.
Being able to dodge the [short blade] indicates that this guy's strength is above E-rank.
"A man who doesn't keep his word." Looking at Rei-nee's closed eyes, Hanbei's wrinkles deepened.
It was thought this move would trap the doctor in a cage, but it now seems to have been ineffective.
“No, that person hasn’t left yet,” Violet said. “Their footsteps are nearby; they haven’t gone far.”
"Hehehe... You have such keen senses. If it were you, you would be an excellent experimental subject."
A man dressed in white emerged from the darkness.
Since our tracks have already been exposed and we'll be caught sooner or later, we might as well step forward and talk.
"The lock showed no signs of being forcibly closed. How did you escape?"
"Hehe, the caves in this mine are a complex and intertwined mess," the man said. "After conducting experiments here for more than half a year, I naturally know the terrain like the back of my hand."
"How is Sister Ling?" Lu Ye asked.
"I kept my promise. The Transformation Essence has been removed from her body, and fortunately it has not been absorbed by the body, otherwise even I would have been helpless," the man said. "The reason I came out of prison was just to be on the safe side. I can't beat Tiger Path. If I obediently waited for you to come back, I would be a fish on a chopping board, at your mercy."
The man chuckled softly, "Don't look at me like that, everyone. Now that things have come to this, I have no reason to lie to you. It's just a pity that this mine can no longer be used, and the research needs to be carried out again."
"Do you want to commit even more killings?" Hanbei asked.
“I didn’t do it because I wanted to; it was all for Ashina,” the man said. “Your Excellency, if you could kill me, I wouldn’t have to bear any more sins… But the lives of those who have become the cornerstone of research so far would be meaningless.”
Hanbei remained silent.
Next, the man's voice seemed to change completely, filled with hoarseness and resentment.
"Ahhh, that's why you're immature, Daoshun. What does the life of an ordinary person matter? We researchers should eliminate distractions and focus on our research. Someone as indecisive as Daoxuan will never succeed!"
Then his voice returned to normal.
“That’s right, Master, you’re right. Compassion is not something a researcher should possess.” The man looked at Hanbei. “Although I’m using villagers for experiments, how many people has Lord Immortal killed so far? Was it for personal gain or for the sake of the world?”
"Dual personality?" Lu Ye murmured softly.
"Can I eat it?" Violet asked softly.
"No," Lu Ye gently tapped the girl's head, "I'll explain later!"
Hanbei still did not answer.
Admittedly, he has killed many people.
In this chaotic world, sometimes a single glance between wandering warriors can determine each other's life or death.
Even if the two sides are complete strangers with no grudges against each other, in this chaotic world, killing needs no reason.
Therefore, Hanbei had no grounds to criticize the doctor in front of him, and he was well aware of this.
Although he was a grateful person, it was the girl on the stone platform who provided him with shelter and food.
He only owed her a debt of gratitude and had no reason to seek justice for these villagers who had become like walking corpses.
Hanbei finally sheathed his sword.
Ling didn't die, and that was enough for him.
The man was very satisfied with what he saw.
Just as he turned to leave, Lu Ye called out to him.
"What is your name?"
"...Daoshun, is there anything else you need?"
Dao Shun narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at this man whose figure and appearance were among the best in the country.
For some reason, he always felt that the person in front of him was dangerous, but if he were to use him as experimental material... he would be an excellent choice.
He has conducted several experiments, and sometimes he can tell from appearance which people's bodies can tolerate high concentrations of the Transformation Water.
The two foreigners before me, a man and a woman, if they were to consume the Transformation Elixir, would likely become even more successful than the work of the Mountain Man and Tiger Path.
"It's nothing, just asking for your name."
Is it?
Dao Shun turned and left, heading towards the exit.
But just then, a loud gunshot rang out throughout the cave.
Blood bloomed on Dao Shun's back.
He slowly turned around, wanting to find out what had happened.
But Lu Ye didn't give him a chance and emptied the magazine directly.
When the echoes inside the cave faded away, Lu Ye took the first step and headed towards the exit.
Hanbei and Violet, carrying Rei on her back, followed closely behind.
As Lu Ye passed by Dao Shun, his foot was grabbed.
Although those hands had lost their strength, they were enough to keep him here.
"Why...?" Dao Shun struggled to lift his head.
“You said before that if I could kill you, I wouldn’t have to bear any more sins. I just want to help you get rid of them.”
"Ashina... Ashina's hope rests entirely on the Flowing Water... If I, my master, and I fail, Lord Genichiro's expectations will be dashed, and Ashina will perish!"
“That’s ridiculous,” Lu Ye said. “What does the destruction of Ashina have to do with me? These villagers gave me a place to stay, and I have an obligation to help them find their families. But their families have already become like this, so naturally we have to find the culprit.”
“You don’t understand at all…” Daoshun said haltingly, “If Ashina is destroyed… these small villages will also be wiped out!”
“So, let’s keep things separate,” Lu Ye sighed. “Alright, aside from the villagers, guess whether I killed you for the sake of the world or for my own selfish desires?”
"I don't know."
“It’s selfishness,” Lu Ye said. “I was still hesitant before, but when you said you wanted to make Violet into the perfect experimental material, I decided to kill you.”
"I just mentioned it casually..."
“That proves you have that idea,” Lu Ye said. “Add to that all your past misdeeds, and you can’t live.”
Lu Ye drew his knife and held it to Dao Shun's throat.
"You don't understand what she means to me. To me, she is more important than the whole of Ashina."
"Ha, what do you know? You're just a stranger in a foreign land..."
"That's enough. I'm asking you, is it true that the Interior Ministry is attacking Ashina?"
"It's true."
"Have I ever killed any innocent person in Ashina? The way you're talking makes it sound like I'm the one who caused Ashina's destruction."
"This is just... a last resort, sacrificing a few to save the country..."
A hint of disgust flashed in Lu Ye's eyes.
