Corpse Recovery Diver-Chapter 1174 - 213

The woman stopped in her tracks, not daring to move forward.

The Jianghu indeed hides many dragons and crouching tigers, but she had never seen such a method of concealment!

Honestly, only the Grandmaster himself didn't know what kind of level these people under him were, and only he could organize this group to do clean business with him.

Xiong Shan stood up.

His son was not yet grown, so his father still had to work hard.

Li Zhiyuan: "Have another drink with my Grandmaster."

Li Sanjiang nodded: "Yes, Shan Hou, drink a bit more, it won't delay the afternoon's work."

Xiong Shan sat down.

Li Zhiyuan: "Brother Runsheng."

Run Sheng put down his chopsticks, holding his stomach: "Gotta make space, so I can eat more."

Li Sanjiang laughed and cursed: "What a habit!"

Run Sheng left his seat, casually picking up the Yellow River Shovel used earlier while setting up the flat ground.

Uncle Qin looked at Li Zhiyuan and asked:

"So soon?"

Li Zhiyuan: "A bit different."

Uncle Qin nodded, knowing Xiao Yuan's Divination was indeed completely different from before.

Li Zhiyuan said to Li Sanjiang: "Grandmaster, I'm full." 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

"Hmm." Li Sanjiang raised his glass, clinking it with Xiong Shan, and downed it in one go.

After Li Zhiyuan left the table, Yin Meng, who had been frowning all along, finally found a proper excuse to leave:

"I'll go deliver some paper to Run Sheng."

...

The woman was running, with Run Sheng in pursuit.

In the fields, two figures were in fast pursuit, closing in on each other.

Having just eaten, Run Sheng was like a tractor newly fueled.

The woman couldn't keep up, nor could she outrun, so she stopped at a dip by a small river, turned to face Run Sheng.

Run Sheng also stopped.

The woman asked, "Why are you aiding the wicked!"

Run Sheng: "I don't understand."

He could feel that the woman seemed to have misunderstood something.

The woman wiped the blood from the corner of her eye, her breath steadying.

Run Sheng said, "Hold on."

The woman asked, "Hold on for what?"

Run Sheng: "Wait for my people to arrive."

The woman let out a sneer: "Ha!"

Then, the woman opened her left palm, clenched her right hand into a fist, and pushed off with one leg.

This set of actions was very familiar to Run Sheng, resembling someone long gone.

In the next moment, the woman's eyes took on an unusual look, different from the previous simple red pupils, now red and black, commonly known as Yin and Yang eyes.

Her hands flipped, and two bamboo rods slipped out from her sleeves, flicking out into a long black and white duster.

The woman leaped high, swinging one duster straight at Run Sheng's face.

Run Sheng raised the Yellow River Shovel to block it.

The woman's other duster swept horizontally, and Run Sheng vertically raised the shovel again to block.

The woman's movements were like fire, continuously spinning and flipping, the dusters swinging like swords.

Retreating while raising the shovel to block, the sound of metal clashing erupted, with each strike sparking fire.

The woman pushed off with her right leg, focusing her weight to try and attack Run Sheng's lower body.

Run Sheng continually lifted his leg, retreating, not giving her the opportunity to strike him.

When the woman was about to change her force, Run Sheng immediately pressed forward, forcing her to retreat, yet unable to disengage.

Finally, the woman couldn't hold it within, her eyes swirling red and black, murmuring, as if laughing or chanting.

Run Sheng's breathing grew rapid, his face twitching.

His strength lay in physicality and close combat, with only nine of his ten apertures open when it came to skills.

The woman launched another attack.

Under pressure, Run Sheng grew flustered, the woman spotting several weaknesses, making him lose his former composure, continuously stumbling backward.

Just as the woman prepared to seize the opportunity for another strike to completely drive him back for a graceful retreat, the robust man in front of her suddenly drew a talisman paper, sticking it to his forehead.

In an instant, clarity returned to his eyes.

The woman's eyes widened: What quality of talisman paper was this that he could block out the underworld's noise?

With the effects of the Heart Clearing Charm, Run Sheng's responses returned to order, continuing to hold the woman at bay.

At this time, Li Zhiyuan and Yin Meng arrived.

Yin Meng: "Three-step Praise?"

Everyone was too familiar with Lin Shuyou's movement technique, and the woman's technique in battle was very similar to Ah You's.

Li Zhiyuan shook his head: "Very similar, but this is the Seven-Star Step."

Yin Meng: "Isn't she the official?"

Li Zhiyuan: "Should be the Eight Generals."

Among the inheritance systems, often you have me within you, and I within you. Even if they evolved separately, you could still see many similarities.

However, the woman held a black and white pair of dusters, seemingly having successfully summoned with Divination, but Li Zhiyuan couldn't discern which Yin God was possessing her, resembling Seventh Master or Lord Eight, yet wasn't them.

Below, the woman's ongoing attacks still couldn't overpower nor shake off Run Sheng, slowly growing anxious, attempting to step back to deploy a skill again, but having suffered once, how could Run Sheng let her do as she wished? He immediately increased pressure.

Li Zhiyuan called out: "Run Sheng, take her down."

The woman looked shocked and suspicious: Was he holding back all along?

Run Sheng had indeed been holding back because Xiao Yuan had only asked him to chase her down without further instructions.

Now, one by one, the Qi gates opened.

The woman didn't know what kind of cultivation technique this was, but she could feel that as more Qi gates opened, the opponent's momentum grew stronger.

Some opportunities, in fact, require time to digest.

Just like Lin Shuyou digesting the residual Divine Power left in him by the White Crane Child, Run Sheng also began to digest the nutritious meal in the pavilion after his Qi gates fully opened, rendering him temporarily paralyzed.

No one dared touch that meal except him.

In fact, this kind of breaking and rebuilding was a new round of shuffling for his body, best suited for new integration.

For example, just now, the woman's attacks were like waves, yet Run Sheng could easily intercept her without even opening a single Qi gate.
