With an Instant Movement, Lu Yin appeared in front of Shi Buzhan. Seeing him, Shi Buzhan hurriedly changed direction, but Lu Yin instantly appeared in its path again. Shi Buzhan changed direction once more, and Lu Yin blocked it again.
With no other choice, it split into nine, transforming nine times as its nine shadows rushed off in nine directions.
Lu Yin raised an eyebrow. He used Instant Movement again and again, landing wherever his gaze fell. He moved so frequently that a shadow of him appeared in front of Shi Buzhan in all nine directions.
"Human, you—"
The Silver Fox caught up. It didn't object to Lu Yin blocking Shi Buzhan; if Lu Yin hadn't stopped it, Shi Buzhan would have escaped.
Shi Buzhan had no choice but to drive back the Silver Fox and look for a way to flee.
But the Silver Fox clearly wanted to die. Even with its limbs shattered, even with its body sliced apart, even reduced to pieces, it still clung to Shi Buzhan, pursuing it relentlessly, never once taking its eyes off it.
Death was the way home. They—
Being deceived wasn't what hurt. What hurt was that it was true.
How it wished it really had been just a deception.
"Silver Fox, don't throw your life away!" Shi Buzhan shouted. It didn't strike to kill, because it couldn't be sure what Lu Yin intended.
Lu Yin had saved the Silver Fox. Shi Buzhan feared that killing it would anger Lu Yin and bring death upon itself, even though it was in danger even without the Silver Fox.
The Silver Fox said nothing. Its bloodshot eyes remained fixed on Shi Buzhan.
Even if I die, I'll bite you once.
Shi Buzhan's nine shadows merged. It turned to Lu Yin, its gaze fierce.
