Chapter 33: A Contest of Wits and Will
"Ah...... so hot...... hmm......" On the ground, Yuè Líng curled up into a ball, constantly twisting her seductive body, and between her breaths, she let out a voice that made people's bones feel numb!
Shi Sheng stood nearby, just casually glanced at him and didn't care about it anymore, muttering to himself: "This person's reaction is quite fast, he actually walked away so decisively, what a pity for the spiritual instrument in his hand! Otherwise, if he had delayed for a moment..."
Shi Sheng smiled slightly with a raised corner of his mouth, then shook his head somewhat regretfully and touched the sleeve of his robe with one hand.
"What? Does this person still have a trump card? Looking at his appearance, it seems that he can still fight again like me!" At this time, the white-clothed youth hiding in the dark corner twitched the corner of his eye, suddenly felt a chill on his back, and looked around suspiciously, worried that a small fireball would suddenly appear somewhere.
"What's that?" Just as the young man in white was looking around, he caught a glimpse of Shi Sheng holding a dozen or so yellow papers in his hand, which were quickly tucked into his sleeve.
"Talismans? This person actually has over a dozen talismans? Even if they're low-grade, if they were to activate them all at once, I'd have a hard time withstanding it in my current state."
No wonder this person has been eyeing my treasure, it seems that the previous battle with me was just to exhaust my strength, and then suddenly make a move, taking out all the talismans to heavily injure or even kill me.
"It's possible that this person's strength is not just this, but he's worried that I'll discover the truth and retreat, so he's pretending to be weak and slowly draining me. How cunning! But unfortunately for you, you've met me, Yuan Mou isn't stupid either, heh heh!" The white-clothed youth smiled slyly.
He secretly congratulated himself on having retreated earlier, after all, who would casually carry so many talismans with them? It must be a talisman, and if the other party was a talisman doctor, it was even more unlikely, as talisman doctors were beings of the Ascension Realm. No one in the Transformation Realm would become a talisman doctor. As for this person being a talisman cultivator, that would be even more terrifying.
Bang!
Just as the young man was in a state of bewilderment, the small fireball floating in front of Shi Sheng suddenly shot out with a blue light and hit the thicket in front of the white-clothed youth, emitting a thick black smoke.
"Could I have been discovered? This is bad!" The young man in white's face twitched, and with a sudden turn of his body, he fled, this time truly fleeing without holding onto any hope.
Although Huo Wei was also at the end of his strength, his skill in escaping with his life was not low.
"What a waste of energy, getting nothing in the end!" Shi Sheng deliberately raised his voice, and the white-clothed youth heard it and ran even faster. In no time at all, he completely disappeared into the thicket of bushes nearby.
Shi Sheng's mouth curled up slightly, and he had long discovered the white-clothed youth hiding, but hadn't exposed him. If he were in the other person's shoes, he probably wouldn't leave easily either, so he continued to carefully observe the youth's every move.
"It's okay, I was just fooled by a few talismans!" With a thud, Shi Sheng sat down on the ground, panting heavily, his face pale as if he had lost all his energy and looked like a deflated balloon. He really didn't have the strength to move anymore, otherwise he would have left immediately.
Shi Sheng hastily sat down to meditate, recovering his spiritual energy while dispelling the pain and stopping the bleeding from his wounds. Unfortunately, he didn't have any hemostatic talismans on him. Shi Sheng deeply felt that in this world, where healing and treating injuries relied on talismans, it was essential to always carry some with him, as one never knew when they might be needed.
When in Rome, do as the Romans do. After all, this place is different from Earth. This time it's a good example, doing good deeds almost got me killed here. If not for the previous accumulation of some small fireballs, I'm afraid I would have died long ago.
Shi Sheng also realized that he still had a huge gap with Huahai, at least his attacking methods were much simpler, while the other's sword symbols, five elements water attribute magic, fire attribute magic, and spiritual instruments were endless.
"It seems that from now on, I need to be more careful. Without understanding the other party's background, it's best to mind my own business as much as possible. Otherwise, losing my life over something trivial is not worth it. Preserving my own life is the top priority; if I die, then everything will be lost. Even if I have to take action, I need to be more decisive!" Shi Sheng sighed silently, taking this experience as a lesson. As a newcomer to this world, he didn't understand how treacherous people's hearts could be, and now he couldn't bring himself to be ruthless.
And through this matter, Shi Sheng's view of society, outlook on life and values also quietly changed, laying a solid foundation for his survival and even rise to power in the future!
Although Sheng's heart is still relatively mature, in this world, Sheng is like an infant, slowly exploring the sense of direction, finding a suitable path to adapt to himself, and changing some living habits and naive ideas on Earth.
"Ah!" Just as Shí Shēng was deep in thought, he suddenly felt a gentle breeze caress his face, and a soft, fluffy body pounced on him.
Yuè Líng tore at Shí Shēng's clothes while also tearing at her own, causing Shí Shēng's eyes to widen in shock, his blood rushing upwards, and a hot flow surging through his nostrils, as if he was about to spit out nosebleed.
"No way, I'm a decent person, how can I do such a thing, taking advantage of someone's misfortune? Bah!" Stone muttered to himself.
The sound that Moon Spirit occasionally made with her mouth made Shi Sheng's body feel numb and weak, as if she had lost all her strength, struggling feebly a few times, seemingly even weaker than a woman.
"I swear, I struggled, and I'm still struggling with all my might, but now that I've just had a fight with someone, I don't have the strength to do anything, you can't blame me!" Shi Sheng said somewhat ambiguously.
Shi Sheng was just a normal man, that kind of "beautiful woman sitting in his lap without being disturbed", the kind of upright gentleman, at this time, Shi Sheng did not believe any normal man could resist.
Unless it's a scam on TV, and besides, there's no time to think about those things now. Shi Sheng's rational consciousness has long been replaced by impulsiveness and wildness.
Just as Shi Sheng placed one hand on Yuè Líng's head, his face suddenly turned pale and he let out a loud roar with a twisted expression.
It was actually Moon Spirit who, without realizing it, had her hand grasping the wound on Stone's body. Stone winced in pain and quickly pulled his hand back to grab onto Moon Spirit's hand, then flipped over and hid far away, covering his wound.
A gentle breeze blew, and Shi Sheng's body trembled, then shook his head, and the clarity in his eyes was restored, as if he had woken up from a confused and bewildered state. For some reason, at this moment, he suddenly thought of Lin Wan'er's gentle and considerate nature.
However, after Moon Spirit saw Shi Sheng dodge, she came chasing again. The look in her eyes was no longer as dazed as before, but had a faint struggle, and even so, she still rushed towards Shi Sheng with a red face.
"I won't wrong Wanyi!" Shi Sheng's eyes narrowed, his face set in determination, and his expression regained complete rationality. With great effort, he struggled to stand up, wincing at the pain from his wounds. (End of this chapter, next one will be even more exciting!)
