Witnessing this, Xuanyuan Chen's heart sank heavily, and he thought with a jolt of alarm, "Oh no, this old bastard has actually recovered from his injuries!" Immediately after, a surge of intense killing intent welled up from the bottom of his heart. "Hmph! The opportunity has come! He couldn't hold back anymore and is ready to strike, isn't he?" Meanwhile, Wu Daozi, who had been sitting cross-legged regulating his breath, keenly caught this killing intent; outwardly he remained completely impassive, but inwardly he was secretly overjoyed.
It must be said that Wu Daozi was truly a fox-like, cunning old veteran of the martial world. Just now, he had deliberately revealed an opening so that Xuanyuan Chen would lower his guard. Using the pretext of recovering from his injuries, he had baited Xuanyuan Chen into making the first move, thereby achieving the element of surprise and catching him off guard to instantly slay Xuanyuan Chen.
Fury churned within Xuanyuan Chen's chest, but he understood that he could not afford to be impetuous right now, and forcefully suppressed this anger. He slowly adjusted his breathing, holding his breath and concealing his presence. His figure moved like a ghost in the dark night, every step taken in utter silence. Tiptoeing across the ground with almost no sound at all, he slowly closed in on his target.
