Reborn as a Giant Scorpion: Evolution by Consumption

Autumn rain is pattering.

Sitting in a dilapidated thatched pavilion, Li He watched with interest a fight outside the pavilion.

A tall, ferocious middle-aged man was holding a long sword, killing a large group of robbers.

The number of robbers quickly changed from 20 to 30 at the beginning to a dozen, and from a dozen to a few.

Finally, only the last robber was left.

The last robber slammed into the muddy water, raised the baggage in his hands high, and begged: "Her man, I was wrong, so please forgive me this time!"

The middle-aged swordsman took away the burden, and said coldly: "You dare to steal my burden. You are really dead!"

After speaking, the middle-aged swordsman slashed with a long sword in his right hand, splitting the head of the last robber in half.

The middle-aged swordsman walked into the Caoting, looked at Li He and asked: "Scholar, don't you see me killing someone, aren't you afraid?"

Li He still stared at the autumn rain outside the Caoting, and said, "I'm not afraid."

The middle-aged swordsman showed a stern look on his face, and he asked, "Why are you not afraid? Do you think I dare not kill even you?"

Li He said indifferently: "I believe that real masters will never kill innocent people indiscriminately!"

When the middle-aged swordsman heard the words, his face suddenly eased a lot, and he nodded and said, "Yes, although my Xiahou kills people like **** in my life, I never kill only those who deserve to be killed!"

After finishing speaking, Xiahou let out the long sword into the scabbard with a sound.

Li He said in his heart: "Is this the Xiahou who failed to fight Yan Chixia and was sucked into a corpse by the thousand-year tree demon?"

While thinking, Li He stared at Xiahou's face and found that a small cloud of black air was gathering between Xiahou's eyebrows.

Xiahou took out a pack of steamed buns and asked Li He, "Scholar, do you want to eat it?"

Li He shook his head.

Xiahou took a steamed bun by himself, and while chewing it, he asked, "Scholar, how is my swordsmanship?"

"It's okay." Li He said.

When Xiahou heard this, he frowned, obviously dissatisfied with Li He's comment, and said: "Scholar, your knowledge is really superficial! My swordsmanship is more than'okay', if I say my swordsmanship is just ' If it’s okay, then who else’s swordsmanship can be worthy of a word “good” in the world?"

Li He said: "You are so confident in your swordsmanship?"

Xiahou said: "Of course! I Xiahou is the world's number one swordsman!"

Li He smiled lightly: "I heard that there is a man named Yan Chixia who is also good at swordsmanship. I wonder how you compare to him?"

When Xiahou heard Li He mentioned Yan Chixia's name, he was a little embarrassed, and his voice was lowered, saying, "Yan Chixia, I will defeat him sooner or later!"

But even though he said so, he didn't have the slightest confidence in them.

After all, he has challenged Yan Chixia for six consecutive years, but he has lost six battles and six defeats.

After a while, Xiahou finally renewed his fighting spirit in his heart and said, "Scholar, do you know where Yan Chixia is now? He is hiding in a ruined temple in this mountain now. I entered the mountain this time. To defeat him!"

Xiahou stood up, clenched his fists, and said, "When I defeat Yan Chixia, Xiahou will be a veritable'world's number one swordsman'!"

After speaking, Xiahou strode out of the Caoting.

Li He looked at Xiahou's back and said, "Xiahou, there is a gathering of black energy between your eyebrows, which is a great omen. If I were you, I would never go to the mountains to seek death!"

Xiahou turned to look at Li He in surprise, and laughed: "Scholar, how much blood and rain I have broken through in the rivers and lakes, even if the mountains are dangerous, why should I be afraid?"

Li He had a good impression of Xiahou.

This person is decisive in killing and cutting, but he sticks to the bottom line. Although he is very utilitarian, he is still a **** hero!

Therefore, Li He said again: "Xiahou, a parting message to you:'When you encounter forests, you will retreat whenever you are a girl', so let's do it for yourself!"

Xiahou laughed and waved: "Scholar, you should be careful of yourself. When it gets dark, there are many wolves and tigers in this mountain!"

But the moment Xiahou laughed and left, he didn't know that the black air between his eyebrows spread, covering his entire face like a black spider web.

This kind of black air is also called "dead air."

But ordinary people can't see this dead spirit with the naked eye. Normally, only two kinds of people can see dead spirit.

One is a practitioner who has practiced eye skills, and the other is a powerful person like Li Hyuk.

Although Li He didn't specialize in eye skills, his strength was extremely powerful, so when he condensed his gaze, he could also see death.

Xiahou's swordsmanship may not be much worse than Yan Chixia, but Yan Chixia's most powerful is not swordsmanship, but spells.

Yan Chixia is proficient in spells, so he can walk unimpeded in the deep mountains and old forests. Xiahou's swordsmanship alone is more than enough to kill ordinary humans or beasts, but if you really want to encounter monsters and ghosts, his swordsmanship won't have much effect!

Regarding Xiahou, Li He has rarely reminded him twice, if he still insisted on going his own way, then he died at the hands of the tree demon, which can only be regarded as self-blame!
