Chapter 1350
Qin He's palm strike left no room for retreat.
He had no intention of massacring people; he was forced into it because he had too many enemies and he couldn't save his own life without being ruthless.
The pitch-black demonic hand expanded in mid-air, blotting out the sky and the sun. The palm wind was filled with the purest malevolent energy of the Demon Abyss. The broken stones were swirled under the palm, and even the air was compressed and made to groan.
This is a high-stakes gamble.
The gamble wasn't on Li Linfeng's rationality, nor on the rules of the Divine Punishment Division, but simply on intuition—the contact during the battle plus a little bit of facial expression.
If it were Zhang Xiu, Qin He would never take this risk. Even if it meant severing his meridians, he would kill the other party first.
The moment the demonic hand struck, Li Linfeng's figure transformed into a golden rainbow.
He didn't look back at the teleportation array, nor did he hesitate for even a moment. His body was filled with holy light of merit, and he crossed his arms in front of him, forcefully crashing into the demonic palm.
The golden holy light collided with the black demonic energy, bursting out with a blinding light. The shockwave shattered the surrounding stone pillars, and rubble rained down.
"Oh!"
The muffled sound made the cave tremble.
Li Linfeng staggered back several steps, a trickle of golden blood spilling from the corner of his mouth. He had deflected the palm strike, but the shock had also caused his blood and qi to churn, and his divine light of merit to dim somewhat.
When he regained his balance and looked up, his pupils suddenly contracted.
Inside the teleportation array, Qin He was holding Da Ya Jin by the back of his collar. Liu Shan and the others were suspended in mid-air, enveloped in his demonic energy, their figures beginning to become illusory.
Seeing Li Linfeng looking at him, Qin He grinned, revealing two rows of white teeth, and gave him a thumbs up: "Lord Li, you have a good heart, you're a good person. I'll treat you to some strong liquor from the Demon Abyss another day!"
Amidst a slightly unrestrained laugh, the golden light enveloped the figures of the group, causing them to completely disappear into the teleportation array.
"You devil, you can't escape!"
Li Linfeng roared, and his holy sword unleashed a golden light, but it only struck the empty array eye and turned into dust.
His face turned ashen, and he kicked a nearby stone pillar so hard that it collapsed with a crash.
"Despicable scoundrel!" His curses were filled with resentment. He never imagined that he would be threatened with the lives of his subordinates by this devil.
"My lord, what should we do now?" The Fu family elder stepped forward quickly, his face anxious.
Li Linfeng took a deep breath, suppressing his anger, and raised his hand to touch his brow. A tiny golden light appeared. He closed his eyes to sense it for a moment, then suddenly opened them, a cold glint flashing in his eyes: "What's the panic? I already placed a tracking restriction on him."
The restriction was silently placed during the exchange, the instant the holy sword slashed Qin He's shoulder. The Divine Court's specially made tracking talisman could penetrate spatial barriers, allowing them to sense Qin He's location as long as he was within a hundred miles.
"Let's go, he didn't travel far, he's just in the southwest!"
Li Linfeng took the lead and flew towards the outside of the cave, his holy wings unfurling, a golden ball of light leaving a long trail in the air. The teleportation array had already consumed most of its energy when it broke through the super array barrier; even with top-grade spirit stones, it couldn't travel very far. The point of light between his brows was crystal clear, less than ten miles away.
……
The moment the teleportation light dissipated, Qin He and his companions appeared in the sky above the wasteland outside Sin City.
Without any pause, Qin He, his left shoulder wound still oozing black blood, suddenly unleashed his demonic energy. Demonic runes flashed beneath his feet, and he and the others transformed into a streak of black light, speeding off in a chosen direction.
"Brother Qin, how far have we flown?" Da Ya Jin rubbed his crumpled collar, and froze as soon as he regained his balance.
The outline of the Sin City ahead was so clear that the banners on the city walls could be seen, and the black mist of the Abyss was almost within reach, with a familiar scent carried on the wind.
"Less than ten miles." Qin He said with a hint of helplessness. He could clearly feel the faint golden aura on his left shoulder, like a needle piercing his soul. "Li Linfeng is catching up, and he's very fast."
No sooner had he finished speaking than a sharp whooshing sound came from the sky behind him.
The golden ball of light approached like a shooting star, and Li Linfeng's angry roar could be heard clearly from miles away: "Qin He, I told you, you can't escape!"
Qin He abruptly stopped, throwing the group in front of him. His palm surged with demonic energy, forming a layer of concealing demonic runes around them: "This restriction can block divine sense detection for half an hour. You guys keep running."
"Then you..." Big Tooth King Kong was about to speak when Qin He interrupted him.
"He's chasing me, not you." Before the others could respond, Qin He's demonic power suddenly surged, and a black aura several times stronger than before shot into the sky like a black beacon of smoke.
He rushed in another direction, deliberately exposing the trajectory of the demonic energy's movement to divine perception.
"You fiend, where do you think you're going!"
Li Linfeng's angry shout instantly grew several times closer, and the golden light ball suddenly turned and chased after Qin He.
He scanned the direction of Liu Shan and the others with his divine sense, only sensing a faint aura. He clearly did not take these "ants" seriously; his target had always been Qin He.
As Da Ya Jin watched Qin He's figure being caught up by the golden light, and the Holy Sword and Demonic Flame collided in mid-air, creating a dazzling halo, he gritted his teeth and said, "Go, escaping is the priority!"
Without further hesitation, the group used the concealment runes as cover and quickly disappeared.
Above the wasteland, Qin He and Li Linfeng had already exchanged dozens of blows.
The golden light emanating from the holy sword carried divine merit, and each strike caused cracks to appear in Qin He's magic shield. The wound on his left shoulder was burned by the holy light, causing him to grit his teeth in pain.
"Lord Li, is this all you've got?"
Qin He's laughter was laced with provocation. His figure flashed like a ghost, and the demonic flames at his fingertips grazed Li Linfeng's holy wings, causing the holy light to ripple. "The Divine Court's executioners are nothing more than this!"
Enraged, Li Linfeng swung his holy sword even faster, the golden sword shadows almost completely blocking Qin He's escape routes.
Seeing that Da Jin Ya and the others had left and there were no other pursuers behind them, Qin He felt relieved. He feinted to dodge Li Linfeng's attack and then turned to leave.
