I Can Transfer the Side Effects of Evil Skills

Chapter 145: Chapter 131: You Have Only Three Breaths Left to Live

It wasn’t difficult for Zou Feng to notice the sword strike.

This surprise attack from the maid only confirmed his earlier suspicions.

Just as he’d thought, another Seventh Grade Expert was siding with Xiang Kang and Deng Guangxin.

He just didn’t know who this woman was exactly.

In a flash, Zou Feng’s footwork shifted, leaving a trail of afterimages in his wake.

The sword strike, which should have been a guaranteed hit, found nothing but air.

”Feifei, look out!” Xiang Kang was only two or three quick steps away from being able to help.

But as he took his first step, a sudden, inexplicable wave of dizziness washed over him.

’I’m poisoned?!’

’Impossible. I’ve been on guard against this kid’s Poison Skills the entire time.’

’Even though I went to the pharmacy to talk with Zou Feng, I was circulating my Inner Strength the whole time and made sure not to touch anything he had.’

’There’s no way I could have been poisoned...’

Xiang Kang could have wracked his brain forever and never guessed the truth: Zou Feng had already drunk the Evil Eye Wine. As he dodged the attack, he had simultaneously activated his Drunken Immortal Moon Gazing Step.

At that moment, three new names had appeared on the List of Gods.

Deng Guangxin, Xiang Kang, and Luo Fei.

Unfortunately, the list only allowed him to deal with one target at a time, so Zou Feng chose to eliminate Xiang Kang and Luo Fei first.

Luo Fei seemed stunned that her sword had missed. Mesmerized by Zou Feng’s ”drunkard” footwork, her focus wavered for a split second.

It took Xiang Kang’s shout to jolt her back to her senses.

This was the advantage of fusing the Drunken Immortal Moon Gazing Step with the Ghostly Shadow Mysterious Step—its swaying motions had a slight mental effect on his opponents.

’He’s behind me!?’

The color drained from Luo Fei’s face as she spun around and swung her sword with incredible speed.

But again, her blade hit nothing, striking only an afterimage that dissipated like a wisp of smoke.

Now, an unavoidable sense of dread began to creep into Luo Fei’s heart.

She would much rather face Zou Feng in a head-on clash than deal with this—an opponent whose movements were impossible to track, who appeared and disappeared like a phantom.

’Calm down. Xiang Kang will be here any second. I just have to hold on a little longer!’

With that thought, Luo Fei stopped trying to pinpoint Zou Feng’s location and instead began swinging her sword wildly where she stood.

Crisscrossing waves of Sword Qi formed a veritable Sword Blade Storm around her. Anyone who approached would be torn to shreds.

A pity, then...

With a sharp SNAP, Zou Feng caught the blade of her sword between just two fingers.

His Chaos Finger training hadn’t been for nothing. Moreover, his Palm Skill cultivation had tempered each and every one of his fingers.

”Your Sword Skill is a complete mess!”

Before the words had even left his mouth, the massive spectral image of a lotus descended from the heavens.

While Zou Feng had been weaving around to confuse Luo Fei, he hadn’t been idle. He had already finished forming an enormous Poison Fury Fire Lotus Seal.

Catching her blade was just to ensure the ”Fire Lotus” would have a stable target to crash down upon.

Sensing the anomaly above her, Luo Fei decisively released her sword. Unleashing her Inner Qi to its fullest, she raised her hands to catch the falling object.

Unfortunately, this was a desperate move that left her vulnerable elsewhere.

She managed to support the Fire Lotus, but in doing so, she left her entire midsection completely exposed.

Zou Feng, of course, wasn’t about to let this opportunity slip by. With Universal Relief in one hand and the Five Poison Palm in the other, he instantly unleashed dozens of strikes.

”Feifei—!”

It all happened too fast. Xiang Kang, still suffering the side effects of the Drunken Immortal Moon Gazing Step, couldn’t reach her in time.

With his work done, Zou Feng stepped back, dodging Xiang Kang’s furious lunge.

’And here I thought Xiang Kang was a fickle and heartless bastard. So he does get worked up when this woman’s in trouble?’

Xiang Kang was indeed frantic. He didn’t even think about pursuing Zou Feng, rushing instead to Luo Fei’s side to catch her.

Holding her in his arms, Xiang Kang looked utterly panicked. ”Feifei,” he asked with deep concern, ”are you... are you okay?”

On the surface, Luo Fei didn’t seem seriously injured, but her face was a mask of terror. She opened her mouth as if to speak, but only stammering sounds came out.

”I... I...”

From a short distance away, Zou Feng answered for her. ”She’s already dead.”

Xiang Kang, of course, refused to believe it. He quickly began to circulate his Inner Qi, intending to help Luo Fei heal and purge the poison.

But in the next instant, Luo Fei’s body began to twist into unnatural shapes. Several parts of her swelled up like balloons.

POP! POP! POP—

Amidst a series of sickening pops, Luo Fei exploded right where she stood.

The resulting blast of toxic gas and poisoned blood splattered all over Xiang Kang’s head and face.

In truth, with Xiang Kang’s power, he should have been able to dodge in time.

But after a lifetime of being fickle and disloyal, the only people he had ever truly cared for were Deng Guangxin and the woman who had just exploded in his arms, Luo Fei.

”No—!”

Overwhelmed with grief, Xiang Kang almost forgot that he was already poisoned. He also forgot that a massive, venomous predator was waiting for the perfect moment to strike.

”Don’t be sad. I’ll send you to join her right now.”

”You little bastard!” Snapping back to his senses, Xiang Kang whirled around in a rage, striking at Zou Feng with a vicious hand chop.

But how could Xiang Kang’s hasty counterattack possibly stand up to Zou Feng’s charged-up Critical Strike?

Especially not when he was already poisoned.

The outcome was never in doubt.

Zou Feng’s Poison Palm weaved around Xiang Kang’s hand chop like a butterfly flitting through flowers.

It slapped onto Xiang Kang’s face, and with a surge of power, Zou Feng slammed him hard into the ground.

Then, he began dragging him across the ground, all while the toxic gas emitting from his palm poured continuously into Xiang Kang’s mouth and nose.

This move was ”Broken Face” from the original version of the Five Poison Palm.

Now, thanks to the improvements from his Fusion Skill, a more fitting name would be ”Poison Fire Bite.”

It was, in every sense of the word, a point-blank ultimate attack.

After dragging Xiang Kang for a short while, the man’s howls gradually faded.

Then, still gripping Xiang Kang’s face, Zou Feng lifted him into the air.

BOOM—

With a final, thunderous explosion, a cloud of poison mist erupted, and Xiang Kang was blasted into oblivion.
