In just two seconds—those brief two seconds—Black Shadow had already rushed up in front of Ouyang Ding. Its sharp claws carried a bone-piercing cold wind as they slashed viciously across Ouyang Ding's back. Deep wounds appeared in an instant, and blood gushed out like a fountain, dyeing his clothes red. The intense pain made Ouyang Ding let out a shrill scream.
"Ah! I..." Ouyang Ding finally regained the ability to move. Instinctively, he tried to retreat, to escape Black Shadow's attack and save his own life, but he no longer had the chance.
Black Shadow moved too fast, giving him no time to withdraw at all. Its second claw fell again, tearing viciously beneath his armpit. Another deep wound opened, and blood gushed out once more, instantly staining his arm and chest red. His body flashed, unable to hold on any longer, and he staggered before collapsing.
Ouyang Ding knew he was dead for certain. At the moment he was about to lose consciousness and fall completely, he suddenly turned his head, his gaze locking fiercely onto Chen Mo, who was holding a torch not far away. His eyes were filled with venomous hatred and unwillingness.
He knew very well that the reason he had been unable to move, the reason he could not escape Black Shadow's assault, was absolutely because Chen Mo had secretly done something to him! Just now, he had clearly wanted to move his body, but suddenly felt as if he had been pinned in place. That feeling was exactly the same as when Ouyang Lei had died before!
Although he did not know what method Chen Mo had used, he was certain that all of this was Chen Mo's doing! Hadn't he merely pushed Ouyang Ruo Xi earlier? Ouyang Ruo Xi had not been injured,
