Chapter 60
===060 Healing===
In the evening, the lingering sunlight gradually disappeared.
Su Hao walked back to the academy with a happy expression on his face.
Suddenly, he felt a familiar bloodthirsty presence on the edge of his radar, eerie and elusive.
“The killer?” Su Hao widened his eyes and instantly activated his bloodthirst, expanding the range of his radar perception.
Yes, it was that familiar feeling.
Su Hao was amazed that the person hadn’t died. Not only had he survived, but he also dared to come out despite his severe injuries. Su Hao felt a hint of admiration for the person.
A ruthless person!
More accurately, it wasn’t the killer himself, but someone controlled by the killer.
Moreover, Su Hao not only sensed the strange bloodthirst of the controlled person but also felt a familiar bloodthirst on him.
“Xiao Mei?” Images of Xiao Mei sitting by the window, earnestly reading a book, flashed through Su Hao’s mind.
Su Hao couldn’t help but sigh. How could this timid girl get caught instead of staying hidden in the academy? If he hadn’t encountered her tonight, her future as a scholar would probably be cut short.
Su Hao scratched his head and said in exasperation, “It seems I’m not the only unlucky one. Some people experience life-threatening accidents in their childhood too.”
Su Hao wasn’t in a hurry. Since he had encountered this situation, the killings would end here.
In the previous battle, he had already learned about the killer’s background. Tonight, he didn’t plan on giving the killer any chance of survival.
This heartless individual, if allowed to continue existing, who knew what would happen in the future? It might make him regret it. After all, in this world, there weren’t many people he cared about, but there were still some.
He covered his face and followed the controlled person from a distance, using his radar.
After the last incident, the person obviously learned to be cautious. This time, he didn’t head straight to his hideout but instead carefully avoided the crowds, taking several turns before finally reaching his destination.
Su Hao once again sensed the presence of the killer’s true body.
“Isn’t this the residential area where Lingyun Town’s high-ranking officials live?” Su Hao confirmed once again.
Su Hao thought of Jin Datong, who saved the killer previously. Could he be related to this? First Su Hao circled the mansion where the killer stayed, and when he arrived at the main gate, he saw the words “Jin Mansion” written on the plaque.
“Sure enough, it’s related to Jin Datong,” Su Hao frowned, and enhanced his perception, but Jin Datong was not nearby.
Other than the killer, there were no other masters in the Jin Mansion.
Su Hao didn’t hesitate anymore, he drew his long knife and climbed over the wall, heading straight for the killer. He was afraid that if he was late, the little girl would be gone.
He went straight, overcoming obstacles and quickly arrived in front of a luxurious house.
In Su Hao’s perception, the killer, the puppeteer, and Xiao Mei were all inside.
Without stopping, he took a few steps forward and the knife in his hand flashed.
“Swish!”
The door split in half at the entrance and fell into the room.
Su Hao rushed in directly.
Their gazes met.
The killer immediately shouted angrily, “It’s you! Shortie!”
His voice contained endless anger, but even more, it was fear when facing Su Hao.
Su Hao squinted, didn’t say a word, and his blood surged under his feet as he shot towards the killer.
When he approached, he swung his long knife.
The killer raised his knife to block.
“Clang!”
The two knives clashed, the killer’s pupils shrunk, realizing that the force coming from the knife was not too heavy, but too light.
“Shadow Gliding Step!”
Su Hao swiftly turned and appeared behind the killer like a ghost.
“Deceptive Thrust!”
The tip of the long knife thrust from the bottom upward.
Fear filled the killer’s eyes as he immediately used his life-saving skill.
“Barrier!”
Just like last time, his whole body emitted a faint red light.
Su Hao’s knife tip couldn’t penetrate the barrier on the killer’s head. At this moment, the killer counterattacked, and Su Hao jumped back. At this moment, something unexpected happened to Su Hao.
They only heard the killer shouting at the top of his lungs, with a high-pitched voice that surpassed the song “Qinghai-Tibet Plateau,” desperately crying out, “Brother, save me!”
The sound broke through the room, tearing a hole in this silent sky.
Su Hao almost cursed, this thing not only fights back, but also calls for help, too much!
He immediately swung his knife and approached.
“Glide Step!”
Su Hao once again moved to the side and struck with his knife.
The killer thought that Su Hao was just feigning an attack and prepared to block any counter moves, determined to hold on until his older brother arrived to save him.
However, he miscalculated. Su Hao’s strike was powerful and heavy, with just one blow, it sent him flying and crashing into the wall.
Seemingly injured again, he coughed up blood.
At this moment, a powerful aura appeared within Su Hao’s perception, rapidly approaching.
It was Jin Datong.
Jin Datong was the older brother of this killer!
Su Hao, with an expressionless face, rushed towards the killer, not giving him a chance to catch his breath.
He aimed his knife tip at the killer’s face and thrust forward.
The killer stared straight at the knife tip, wielding his thick and long knife to defend with all his might.
Just then, Su Hao suddenly opened his left hand.
“Strong Light!”
Intense and blinding light erupted from his palm, catching the killer off guard. He was blinded and let out a scream. He instinctively covered his eyes and tilted his head to the side, narrowly avoiding Su Hao’s strike towards his head.
But that was the end of it.
Su Hao raised the long knife against the killer’s ear, turning the blade and swinging it.
“Thud!”
With a muffled yet crisp sound, a head rolled off, blood spraying all over the wall.
Su Hao flicked his foot, and the killer’s precious knife ended up in his hand. He tested it out, feeling satisfied with the grip.
“Boom!”
A nearby wall shattered, and a figure rushed into the room along with the debris, immediately fixating on the decapitated killer. The person was Jin Datong.
“Da Mo!!!” Jin Datong let out a mournful roar.
His eyes widened, bloodshot with a predatory gaze. His face twisted with a ferocious expression.
“It’s you! It’s you again! Bastard!! You damn bastard!!”
Jin Datong’s raging eyes locked onto Su Hao.
With a height of two meters, Jin Datong’s entire body began to swell with muscles, tightening his loose clothing, resembling a small giant.
With a trembling of his hands, a pair of steel gloves instantly covered his fists.
Jin Datong’s massive figure brought immense pressure to Su Hao, who was only a little over one and a half meters tall.
“Die!” With his massive body, Jin Datong lunged towards Su Hao like a fierce tiger, aiming a punch at his head.
He intended to smash Su Hao into the ground.
Su Hao agilely leaped away from the spot, although he didn’t know if he could block this punch, he didn’t want to easily attempt it. Jin Datong’s oppressive presence was too strong for him, not just his physique but also his aura.
“Boom!” Gravel scattered.
Jin Datong’s punch crashed into the ground, causing the entire room to tremble, with dust falling from the ceiling.
While Su Hao cut off the head of the killer with a knife, his left hand had already started drawing the “Blinding Light” rune. At that moment, it had already been completed.
He feigned the intention to run, and when Jin Datong caught up, he quietly opened his palm.
“Blinding Light!”
As expected, Jin Datong was caught off guard and had his eyes dazzled by Su Hao.
Seizing the opportunity, Su Hao directly threw the ordinary long knife belonging to him towards Jin Datong.
“Splurt!”
The long knife penetrated through Jin Datong’s chest, the tip of the blade protruding from the back. At a critical moment, he managed to avoid a critical hit to his heart.
Jin Datong’s physical strength was formidable, but Su Hao’s strength combined with a vast amount of energy was even stronger!
Without stopping, Su Hao’s feet erupted in force as he wielded the broad and thick long knife of the killer, slashing downward.
Jin Datong was pierced by the long knife and let out a muffled groan, holding back tears, he opened his eyes and raised his fist to block Su Hao’s long knife.
“Clang!”
Taking advantage of the momentum, Jin Datong pressed forward.
“Crush Bones!”
His other fist aimed straight for Su Hao’s face. Su Hao leaned back, avoiding the punch, and kicked the handle of the knife lodged in Jin Datong’s body.
“Swoosh!”
The blade didn’t fully penetrate, but Jin Datong felt the pain and staggered back two steps, while Su Hao took the opportunity to step back.
Tears flowed from Jin Datong’s eyes, his gaze fixed on Su Hao with burning flames, no longer rushing to attack.
He seemed to realize that although Su Hao was small in stature, he was not easy to mess with. One wrong move and he would end up here.
Su Hao gasped for breath, the intense battle taking its toll on him, requiring more oxygen.
Jin Datong also took deep breaths.
He glanced at the blade still embedded in his chest, blood flowing from the wound due to the intense movement. Then he reached for the handle and slowly pulled it out.
Even Su Hao winced at the sight.
Jin Datong casually threw the pulled-out blade to the ground.
“Clang~”
Jin Datong clenched his fists, veins bulging on his forehead.
“Heal!”
Then Su Hao witnessed an incredible scene.
The knife wound on Jin Datong’s chest visibly stopped bleeding and healed, leaving only a shallow scar!
Su Hao cursed inwardly, “What the hell! He can even heal!”
