The battle at the edge of the forest between Bald Tuo and Mo Shan continued.
Bald Tuo couldn't win, nor could he escape. He had initially thought his days were numbered.
But after exchanging several more moves, he unexpectedly discovered that this Monster Hunter wasn't striking to kill.
The Cultivator hiding in the shadows—who wielded strange spells—was only using spells to trap him, not to end his life with lethal force.
These two didn't seem intent on killing him.
Bald Tuo breathed a sigh of relief but immediately felt a mix of shame and anger in his heart.
*They're toying with me!*
*Neither killing nor releasing me, as if I'm just some prey being played with by hunters.*
*This is utter humiliation and mockery!*
"This is intolerable!" Bald Tuo lashed out in rage.
Refusing to resign himself to an inevitable fate, he tried everything he could—using runes, feigning weakness—hoping to seize any opportunity to escape.
