"Ye Feng, can’t you understand what I’m saying?" the eerie man bellowed loudly.
However, Feng paid him no heed, once again shattering the glass, and the eerie man moved yet again.
"Bang!" Feng’s body shot out like a cannonball, instantly propelling forward, True Essence Long Sword slashing down.
"Whoosh!" Sword Qi tore through the ground, leaving behind a startling gash.
But Feng was still too slow; his sword had not harmed the eerie man at all.
Feng didn’t intend to give up, following the eerie man into the Mirror World, smashing mirror after mirror. He struck at the eerie man as he moved, but Feng was always just too slow.
Feng couldn’t injure the eerie man at all.
"Ga ga ga~~~" The eerie man laughed wickedly, "You useless thing, haven’t I already told you? I am moving at the speed of light, you can’t harm me at all. Just give up."
Yet the corners of Feng’s mouth slightly curled upwards as he thought to himself, "I understand now."
The eerie man could hide within the Mirror World, but every time the Mirror World was destroyed, he had to leave it and move to a new host to function, and his moving path was always a straight line.
Just like the path of a beam of light, it was always straight, without turns.
The eerie man arrogantly exclaimed, "Ye Feng, I’ve told you, it’s no use. You just don’t listen, do you? Just let me kill you peacefully, otherwise, I won’t spare anyone who came with you!"
Feng said indifferently, "If there’s no host, then you have no way to deal with me, right..."
As his words fell, Feng quickly moved, pushing his speed to the limit. Moving as previously described, he soon entered an alley where there was nothing, only the dark walls incapable of reflection.
Without a host to reflect the Mirror World, the eerie man’s abilities would be useless.
"Clap clap clap~~~" But just then, the sound of footsteps steadily approached.
In a short while, more than a dozen figures appeared at both ends of the alley.
Those people, all beggars, clad in tattered clothes, their eyes revealing madness.
The leader was the old beggar to whom Feng had given several hundred pieces earlier.
The old beggar excitedly looked at Feng and then yelled ecstatically to his companions, "It’s him, this great benefactor, the one who gave me the five hundred!"
"Great benefactor, please spare some change!" Immediately, those beggars, as if mad, greedily and wildly looked at Feng and surged towards him.
"Great benefactor, please spare some change!" The beggars cried out in frenzied madness, surrounding Feng. If he didn’t give them money, they would never leave.
Their eyes filled with greed, the beggars encircled Feng, and then the voice of the eerie man appeared again.
"Ga ga ga~~~" The eerie man laughed, "Ye Feng, Ye Feng, did you really think I hadn’t considered this? Did you think that without a host around, I would have no means to deal with you?"
Those beggars surrounded Feng, staring fixedly at him, and in their eyes’ reflection of the Mirror World, Feng saw the existence of the eerie man.
The eerie man was hiding in the beggars’ eyes, and as long as they looked at Feng, they could kill him from within their world of eyes.
"Ye Feng, you are indeed a tough opponent, it’s such a pity that you still have to die by my hand!" The eerie man was extremely confident, as if Feng was already a dead man.
"Ye Feng, are you going to kill all these beggars, or choose to be killed by me? But with so many beggars, can you kill them all in an instant? I can kill you before you kill them. You’re done for!" The eerie man declared confidently.
"Is that so?" Yet, at such a critical moment, Feng remained calm, his lips curling into a slight smile.
At that moment, a Spirit Stone vaguely appeared in Feng’s hand.
The Spirit Stone was crystal clear, radiating a dazzling light that immediately caught all the beggars’ eyes.
Even though they were beggars, they understood the value of the Spirit Stone in Feng’s hand. He shouted, "This gem is worth countless times more than gold. Whomever snatches it, it’s theirs!"
The moment the words were out, Feng tossed the Spirit Stone high into the air.
"Gemstone!" The beggars roared excitedly, their gaze almost simultaneously converging on Feng’s Spirit Stone.
Everyone was extremely excited, all wanting to obtain Feng’s Spirit Stone.
But at that instant, Feng’s foot crushed the ground, turning it into countless stones. The shattered stones became sand, and Feng threw the grains directly into the eyes of the beggars.
"Ah~~" Suddenly, the beggars howled in pain, and almost at the same time, they all closed their eyes.
With all the beggars’ eyes shut, the eerie man naturally lost his host.
However, Feng blocked the eerie man’s transfer path with True Essence in front of him, preventing him from entering Feng’s eyes.
At that moment, the only thing that could reflect light and form the Mirror World was Feng’s Spirit Stone.
And since all the beggars were looking at the Spirit Stone, the eerie man left the beggars’ eyes in an instant, transformed into light, and moved towards the Stone, but Feng’s ready Sword Qi, condensed from True Essence, blocked the way.
"Slash!" Light flashed, and the eerie man collided with Feng’s True Essence Blade.
"Ah~~" A blood-curdling scream echoed through the alley, and suddenly there was a grotesque man whose torso was severed and blood flowed continuously.
"Murder!" The beggars, seeing this scene, screamed in horror.
