Ebert hid in the muddy pool, trembling, fear entwined his heart like a poisonous snake, making him almost breathless.
He witnessed the tragic battle with his own eyes, heard the horrifying screams with his own ears, and saw the cruel and bloody scenes with his own eyes. All of this was deeply imprinted in his mind and could not be erased.
He had never thought that there would be such a vicious woman and such a cruel killing method in this world.
He had never thought that he would be so lucky to survive this killing.
He didn't know how he survived that long and tormenting time. He only knew that when he saw the woman stabbing the dagger into the man's body again and again, he felt as if his soul was also pulled out of his body, leaving only endless fear and despair.
He thought that everything was over.
He thought that the man was dead.
He thought that he was safe.
However, fate always seemed to like to play tricks on him.
Just when Ebert thought he could breathe a sigh of relief, something strange happened!
The man who was lying motionless on the ground suddenly opened his eyes!
His eyes were no longer filled with pain and despair as before, but flashed with a strange red light, like the flames from hell, which was chilling.
"Cough cough..."
The man coughed violently a few times, and streams of black blood spurted out of his mouth, but the expression on his face was full of madness and resentment.
"Bitch! Do you think you can kill me like this?" The man struggled to get up from the ground. His voice was hoarse and weak, but full of deep hatred. "I had expected you to do this, so I converted part of my vitality into energy in advance and hid it in my body, just for this moment!"
"You... you actually..." The woman obviously didn't expect that the man actually had a backhand, and her face showed an expression of disbelief.
"Go to hell!"
The man roared, raised his right hand suddenly, and a dazzling ball of lightning burst out from his palm in an instant, bombarding the woman.
The lightning ball was as fast as lightning, and it came to the woman in the blink of an eye.
The woman didn't even have time to react before she was hit in the chest by the lightning ball.
"Ah--"
The woman screamed miserably, and her body, like a kite with a broken string, was blown away by the lightning ball and fell heavily on the ground more than ten meters away.
"Hahaha..."
The man looked at the woman lying on the ground and laughed arrogantly, "You want to kill me? You are overestimating yourself!"
As he spoke, he walked towards the woman, and with every step he took, his momentum increased a bit, as if he was a demon king from hell, exuding a suffocating sense of oppression.
However, just as the man was about to walk in front of the woman, his body suddenly stopped.
His face also became extremely ugly, as if he was suffering from great pain.
"Damn it! This body is about to collapse..." The man cursed in a low voice, with a trace of unwillingness in his eyes.
He turned around and looked in the direction of Ebert, with a trace of murderous intent in his eyes, but in the end, he gave up the idea of chasing Ebert.
"Boy, you are lucky! If I meet you again next time, you will not be so lucky!"
After the man finished speaking, he ignored Ebert and staggered towards the depths of the forest, and soon disappeared in the dense woods.
Ebert hid in the pool, not daring to breathe, until the man's figure completely disappeared, he dared to slowly climb out of the pool.
He was soaked, covered with mud and water plants, and looked miserable.
But he didn't care about that. He suppressed the fear in his heart and walked towards the place where the woman fell.
He wanted to confirm whether the woman was dead or alive.
