Hu Xiaotian had made Unenlightened blind again. Not daring to linger in battle, he turned and fled at a dead run, ruthlessly killing anyone who blocked his way, friend or foe. In the past, even without eyes, Unenlightened's hearing and perception had allowed him to judge his surroundings accurately. But after regaining his sight, he had unconsciously grown increasingly reliant on those eyes. When Hu Xiaotian suddenly gouged them out, he lost his composure at once. He dared not keep fighting; all he could think of was escaping this place as quickly as possible.
Hu Xiaotian pursued him relentlessly, but Unenlightened's lightness skill was astonishing. Hu Xiaotian had learned his Aerial Gliding Art from him in the first place. Besides, concern held Hu Xiaotian back: his men were fighting vastly superior numbers, and he feared something might happen to them. After pursuing him for some distance and seeing Unenlightened pull farther and farther ahead, he abandoned the chase and returned to wreak havoc on the battlefield.
Though the Dangyi tribesmen were brave and skilled fighters, they had gained no advantage whatsoever in this battle. With that god of slaughter Xiong Tianba rampaging among them, they were already trembling with fear. Even before the Fan Monk was killed and Unenlightened fled, the Dangyi tribesmen had begun scattering like birds and beasts.
Hu Xiaotian's warriors charged after their defeated enemies like fierce tigers released from their cages. The Dangyi tribesmen suffered heavy casualties, and more than a dozen prisoners were taken on the spot.
Naturally, Visa handled the interrogation. They learned that these Dangyi tribesmen had been commissioned by Guo Shaoxiong to wipe them out. Hu Xiaotian was puzzled. He had dealt with Guo Shaoxiong before, and the fellow had little ability, yet now he had stirred up such a major affair.
