Urban's Fury: The War Dragon God-Chapter 1422: Poisoned

After a short rest, Li Feng and Li Nianqing retraced their steps in the direction they came from, since the magnetic field in Henongjia was so chaotic that even the compass built into Li Feng's watch couldn't work properly.

If they wandered around, it would be easy to get lost deep in the jungle.

"You said earlier that you've already used the secret technique to contact the outside. You're not lying, are you?"

Li Nianqing shook her head: "Of course not, how could we joke about sect matters."

"You also know that the magnetic field in Henongjia is chaotic, even basic communication is impossible unless you reach the outer areas to connect to the satellite phone."

"But inside the jungle, there are some very clever monkey groups that are unaffected by this magnetic disorder, so someone in the sect trained these spiritual monkeys as communicators. They usually serve as reconnaissance soldiers to monitor the surroundings and connect with the outside, delivering less important messages."

"Moreover, monkeys move much more easily than we do in the jungle, and they're faster. As long as the message gets to the contact point in the town outside, someone will contact the Elder."

Hearing this, Li Feng replied with an 'oh,' realizing such a practice existed. But considering the giant ape they encountered before, he was relieved.

This kind of cultivation sect, if they don't have peculiar exotic animals, how would they show their uniqueness?

After walking for a while, Li Nianqing was slightly out of breath, leaning against a tree, beads of sweat dripped down her forehead.

Li Feng noticed something was wrong with Li Nianqing; her face had gone from rosy to pale, which was not normal.

As for being exhausted, that wasn't very likely either; after all, Li Nianqing was a cultivator. Even if she wasn't specialized in combat, her body shouldn't be so weak.

After all, earlier in the jungle, Li Nianqing's performance was not much worse than Li Feng's.

"What's wrong?"

Li Feng asked.

Li Nianqing was breathing rapidly, suddenly collapsing into Li Feng's arms, her skin feeling ice-cold to his touch.

Li Feng quickly carried Li Nianqing to a clearing with sunlight streaming in, looking at the beads of sweat on her forehead, quickly scanning her body.

Obviously, the outer clothing was obstructing, so Li Feng couldn't confirm the problem, but seeing Li Nianqing's rapid breathing and irregular heartbeat seemed to be getting worse.

Could it be poisoning?

Li Feng thought of this possibility. Even though he had carried Nianqing and used his domineering aura to protect her, he couldn't guarantee it was foolproof, especially since the insect swarm had blotted out the sky at that time.

"Forgive me."

Seeing that Li Nianqing couldn't even speak, Li Feng knew time was tight, and without hesitation, he unzipped her jacket.

Looking at Nianqing's back, a large area of redness and swelling spread out, Li Feng used a surgical knife to cut open her close-fitting vest, and the next second he inhaled sharply.

Hiss.

On Nianqing's smooth back grew a large swollen bump the size of a small pot, right near her heart.

Upon closer inspection, there was a small black dot in the center of the swelling. Li Feng reached out to touch it and felt it was hard.

This is the tip of a venomous bee's sting.

Finding the cause, Li Feng took a deep breath. The tail sting of a venomous bee was one of the five poisons; normally, natural bee venom wasn't so lethal, unless one was stung by a sufficient number of poisonous bees, then there would be a life threat.

But the Myriad Poison Sect specialized in training venomous insects, so it couldn't be judged by common sense. Judging by Nianqing's symptoms, the poison from the tail sting was significant.

And the sting pierced near her heart rather than a limb or other less critical area.

Yet this woman never mentioned it.

No time to delay, Li Feng flipped his hand, revealing a surgical knife, then sterilized it with a lighter, before gently cutting a slit where the tail sting had pierced, then applied force to the wound.

Puff.

Some poisoned blood mixed with a tail sting about a few millimeters long was forced out of the body.

But the problem wasn't solved; from stinging to contraction, at least half an hour had passed, and the bee venom had already spread to Nianqing's limbs and body.

Now there was no way to suck the poisoned blood out.

"You can't just die like this, hold on," Li Feng immediately draped a coat over Nianqing, lifted her onto his back, and swiftly retraced their way back.

A quarter of an hour later.

Li Feng returned to the bottom of the cliff, where, aside from the corpses of countless insects, there wasn't a single human figure.

Hiding in the shade of a tree, Li Feng watched the surroundings for a moment. It seemed there were no watchers, and he couldn't be sure if the Demon Path people had retreated or not, considering only half an hour had passed.

Feeling Nianqing's deteriorating condition behind him, Li Feng took a deep breath and dashed out.

There's no time to make it outside; hopefully, the Demon Path has retreated and the Mo Yin Sect isn't completely finished.

But just as Li Feng was ten meters away from the passage on the cliff, suddenly someone burst out from Mo Yin Sect.

Instantly, the two faced each other.

Li Feng cursed inwardly; these Demon Path folks really did things inefficiently. After all, this time had already passed, and they hadn't retreated. Can they still survive?

"Don't come out, there's still an enemy."

"Damn Demon Path, I knew you'd pull this trick. You want to ambush us? Come then, let your 'Grandpa Gold' experience your Demon Path skills."

Saying this, the person struck his chest, instantly causing his skin to glow a shade of brass, an indestructible golden body.

Then, this big fellow leaped into the air like a cannonball, charging towards Li Feng.

Li Feng sidestepped, clenched his fist, and directly met the brass man. A metallic crash instantly sounded.

Li Feng's foot sank three inches into the ground, while the brass man staggered backward several steps, looking slightly disbelieving.

"Well, Demon Path, you do have some skill. Seems like your 'Grandpa Gold' can't take you down without using his ultimate move."

"Vajra Body, Hercules Hammer."

The brass man's arms suddenly swelled with a low growl, the right arm becoming thicker than his thigh, and his fist grew several sizes.

"Stop, I'm not from the Demon Path."

"Hmph, just because you say you aren't doesn't make it so." The brass man clearly didn't listen, exerting force with his foot, ripping up the ground as he charged at Li Feng, swinging the Hercules Hammer at him.

Li Feng looked at the massive incoming fist, tapped his toe, and used the force from the opponent's punch to fly backward like a kite.

"Hmph, where do you think you're escaping to, Demon Path? Witness my Heaven's Net."

At this moment, a graceful woman emerged from the passage, directly unleashing her Five Elements Wood Power, causing the surrounding tall trees' vines to seem injected with life, dropping down like snakes, attempting to ensnare the airborne Li Feng.
