Chapter 216: Shredded

Chapter 216: Shredded

The scene before them remained the same small wooden cabin, with Lin Feng, in a frenzy, attacking with his sharp claws, but this time it was Bai Mu who was injured.

Moreover, in the next instant, Bai Mu was grabbed by Lin Feng, his abdomen completely pierced through, and then his body was violently ripped apart.

His body instantly scattered everywhere, his head thrown into a corner, a pale face, eyes wide with shock and fear.

Xiao Hua clenched her fists tightly, her nails digging into her palms, shaking with rage.

She knew it was fake, fake beyond belief, as Dr. Cao's temporary burst of energy couldn't create a flawless illusion.

But she was still seething with fury.

Xiao Hua stared at the illusion before her, grinding her back teeth in frustration, and with a swift motion, she shattered the false image.

The scene shattered, and in an instant, the real battle scene reappeared, Bai Mu's shadow stood still, as if still trapped in the illusion.

A Tian seized the moment to break free from the ice, grabbing Dr. Cao's shoulder and readying to flee.

"Since you're here, you must leave something behind," Xiao Hua's voice was icy, her peach blossom eyes glinting with coldness.

"Ah!"

Dr. Cao suddenly screamed, hurriedly looking down to see his legs in the ice being shredded, then the ice shattered into shards, climbing up his thighs with the wind's aid.

Though just small ice shards, they were like razor-sharp blades, slicing through his skin.

In an instant, his thighs were drenched in bright red, and in another instant, the flesh on his thighs was shredded, accompanied by the sickening sound of blades cutting through bone.

"Go! Hurry up and go!" Dr. Cao's voice trembled as he urgently ordered A Tian to retreat. Though a pervert, he still feared pain and death.

With his legs gone in an instant, though he loathed Xiao Hua and wished to cut her into a thousand pieces, his only thought now was to escape, to flee far away.

Xiao Hua stared fixedly at Dr. Cao, a cruel smile playing at the corners of her lips.

Actually, she wasn't in such a hurry to see Dr. Cao dead; a bit more torment would be quite nice.

The knife wounds on Kong Yu and Xiao Ying, the mental torment she endured time and time again, killing him directly would be too lenient.

Tsk, she seemed like a big villain, but it didn't matter, she wasn't a good person anyway, Xiao Hua muttered softly in her heart.

She looked up at the two who had escaped a short distance, her raised arm not lowering, countless ice crystals chasing after them, specifically targeting Dr. Cao.

A Tian, unable to dodge in time, saw Dr. Cao's right shoulder pierced by an ice crystal, the transparent ice refracting a rainbow of colors in the sunlight.

"Pfft!" Dr. Cao finally couldn't hold back, spitting out a mouthful of blood, his whole person in a sorry state, but now he couldn't care less, only furiously urging A Tian: "Hurry up!"

A Tian, hearing this, frantically activated his powers, increasing his speed significantly. Dr. Cao, caught off guard, swallowed a large mouthful of cold air, coughing incessantly.

Xiao Hua, hearing the increasingly distant coughs, finally had a hint of genuine smile in the corner of her eye, her whole body relaxing slightly.

She glanced in the direction Dr. Cao had fled, not pursuing, as there was still a lot of unfinished business.

Only now, with Dr. Cao completely out of their range, did Bai Mu finally regain consciousness, slowly moving his stiff body, revealing his form.

"What happened? Are you okay?" Xiao Hua quickly ran over, scrutinizing his face, trying to discern the specific reason he had fallen into the illusion.

Bai Mu's eyes were deep and inscrutable, silently watching Xiao Hua's face, not saying a word.

Xiao Hua's eyelashes couldn't help but tremble, her fists clenched tightly in nervousness, wondering if Bai Mu still hadn't emerged from the illusion.

She felt as if a long time had passed, so long that she had already opened her mouth to speak, when Bai Mu finally smiled faintly, his eyes regaining their usual warmth and gentleness.

A hint of annoyance crossed his brow as he softly said, "It's nothing, I was just momentarily trapped in an illusion, letting the enemy escape."

He didn't mention why he was trapped in the illusion, but from Bai Mu's expression, Xiao Hua sensed it had something to do with her. But Bai Mu stayed quiet, and she couldn't pry it out of him.

"It's not a big deal, we've already rescued everyone, we'll handle Dr. Cao later."
