章 431: Chapter 431 Swamp Assassination

Chu Yuan quickly retreated to one side, simultaneously throwing a Shitou (Stone) into it. The thing, looking like a thin layer, not only swallowed the stone without leaving a trace but also made no sound.

The thickness of the floor divisions was such, but this layer of mud turned the ground into an unfathomable swamplike area.

The mire continuously ate away at the ground, and Xu Huo and Chu Yuan had no choice but to rapidly retreat. Just as they turned to leave, a ghostly black figure suddenly burst out from a dark corner, rushing towards them with an unnaturally wide grin, slashing at Xu Huo with a quick blade.

"It's one of Dr. Deng's people!"

"Brother, watch out..." Chu Yuan immediately took out a crossbow arrow, but what he didn't expect was that the blade would change direction mid-strike, coming at him instead!
