Chapter 122: Chapter 122: Xiao Hei Lures the Enemy, Lu Chen Sneaks Attack and Overwhelms the Dean!

Lu Chen hadn’t expected the dean’s perception to be so sensitive.

Having just reached the Qi Refinement Realm, he didn’t know the differences between cultivators and martial artists!

Because of Mu Xiao, he wished he could kill the dean right then and there.

And for the Elder of Heavenly Medicine, it was seeing a hope for life, under the premise of killing these two men.

Thus, the murderous intent of both men had combined, naturally discovered by the dean.

Seeing that the two had stopped for no reason and had become vigilant, Lu Chen knew that things might not go smoothly.

If they were too far away, he had hardly any chance at all.

Just as he was at a loss, Little Black, hiding on the opposite side, suddenly raised its head!

"Hiss! Hiss!"

In the tense atmosphere, Little Black broke the silence and immediately caught the dean and Li Mingru’s attention!

"A black Jiao snake?"

Li Mingru couldn’t see clearly but recognized Little Black by feeling its aura, having seen it before.

Yet, as soon as he spoke, Little Black seemed to be startled and swiftly darted to the side!

To flee in panic?

The thought arose simultaneously in the minds of Li Mingru and the dean.

Since Little Black wasn’t fully mature, it was only reasonable that it could not face the two men together and had to flee.

"Chase! The direction the black Jiao snake fled to might be where Lu Chen is!"

The dean made a swift decision, called out immediately, and without caring if Mu Xiao would discover their tracking, went straight in the direction Little Black had fled!

And this path would take them right past where the Elder of Heavenly Medicine was hiding!

He hadn’t communicated with Lu Chen and didn’t know how to react, but as they were already upon him, he had no time to think; remembering their previous arrangement, he extended his palm and struck toward Li Mingru, who was following behind!

As the intent to kill arose, both men immediately reacted!

"It’s an ambush!"

Li Mingru cried out in shock and extended his palm to block!

Bang!

Their palms met; Li Mingru had the upper hand, and he also recognized the assailant!

"Heavenly Medicine, it’s you!"

The dean’s intention was to follow Little Black to find Lu Chen, and upon realizing Li Mingru’s opponent was the Elder of Heavenly Medicine, he couldn’t help but also stop in his tracks and, with a backhanded palm strike, launched an attack with immense spiritual power at the Elder of Heavenly Medicine’s back!

The Elder of Heavenly Medicine was already having difficulty dealing with Li Mingru, let alone a sneak attack from behind by the dean. He dared not face it.

The dean was a cultivator, and that spiritual power was more than enough for him to handle!

Cursing Lu Chen in his heart for not coming to aid, he rolled over like a lazy donkey, rolling directly to the side!

Although he had not lain in ambush for long, he had a general understanding of the terrain. Despite not being able to see, he knew there was a small depression next to him, big enough for him to hide for a moment.

The spiritual power didn’t hit his body, but the aftermath still made the Elder of Heavenly Medicine’s blood surge.

"Heavenly Medicine, you dare to betray us?"

The dean was furious and, while cursing the Elder of Heavenly Medicine, also focused his spiritual power outside his body, preparing to form a shield in case of another ambush.

But he hadn’t expected that this was the very opportunity Lu Chen was waiting for!

"Spear Strikes Like a Dragon!"

He burst forth from the path, his spear already infused with the power of the Five Elements!

Spiritual power surged on the spear, instantly forming a real dragon that leapt directly from the spear and pounced toward the dean!

"Who?"

Such immense spiritual power aimed at his back made the dean’s heart quake. He had no time to wonder why Lu Chen was so strong and, mimicking the Elder of Heavenly Medicine, threw himself to the ground, trying to dodge the dragon shadow on the spear.

But how could he know that Lu Chen’s Hateful Heaven Pupil Technique made it impossible for him to dodge!

Although the dean avoided the dragon shadow, he was now at a disadvantage!

He, himself, could be seen!

"At the last moment, sharpen the spear!"

Lu Chen pointed the spear at the ground, his spiritual power turning up the dead leaves and soil, chasing after the dean on the ground!

The even stronger killing intent made the dean’s heart shudder again!

How could Lu Chen find where I am?

He thought that in the darkness, it would be difficult to see clearly, and Lu Chen must be using sound to pinpoint his position.

But he was holding his breath and being quiet, so how could Lu Chen still be so accurate?

Feeling the killing intent and spiritual power directly rushing at him, the dean sprang up and scampered up a nearby tree like a monkey!

Lu Chen’s first strike had missed, and he marveled at the dean’s quick response, but his own reaction was not slow!

"Do you think climbing a tree will let you escape?"

Lu Chen sneered coldly, his advancing foot stomping on the ground, causing dead leaves to fly up with his spiritual power!

Then, steadying his stance, he crouched and thrusted with his spear!

"Piercing Spear Thrust!"

Again, the Five Elements Spiritual Power, wrapped around the spear, thrust upwards directly at the dean!

"Lu Chen, damn you!"

But at that moment, Li Mingru finally came to his senses and struck at Lu Chen’s back with a palm!
