Ignoring the sagging walls around him and the cracking sound of breaking wooden beams overhead, Su Feng searched for Father Wu's figure in the dark space that resembled ruins.
"Where did that old man go?"
Fortunately, Father Wu did not go far. Instead, he knelt in front of the collapsed statue of Jesus, seemingly praying.
At his feet lay the crushed corpse of a missionary... his limbs torn apart, reduced to a pile of flesh, a gruesome sight.
"Merciful Lord, please forgive our sins! Please forgive the sins of the world!"
Father Wu prayed with tears streaming down his face, his expression filled with despair and grief.
He believed that the collapse of the church and the fall of the Jesus statue were related... that God was angry and wanted to punish them, these stubborn sinners.
"What time is it? Still chanting scriptures here!"
Su Feng leaped over the wall and rushed forward. Just then, a loud crash came from the top of the church; the massive spire collapsed, directly beneath Father Wu's position...
If you get hit at this distance, you're almost guaranteed to die.
Su Feng didn't hesitate, quickened his pace as if flying through the air, grabbed Father Wu, and rushed out the back door!
At the same time, the church collapsed with a deafening sound!
The massive wall crushed the surrounding earthen walls, but fortunately, the mud and sand acted as a buffer, preventing the broken and scattered pieces of wood from flying everywhere and minimizing unnecessary casualties.
Boom boom boom——
Amidst swirling yellow sand, Su Feng led Father Wu to a distant location. Looking up, they saw that the once towering church had shrunk considerably, now reduced to ruins.
Aftershocks are still ongoing...
"Father, you stay here and wait for the security team. Don't wander off!"
Su Feng gave a word of advice, and seeing Father Wu kneeling on the ground with a blank expression, he paid no more attention to him.
There are still a few guys in the backyard.
Although Scarface and his accomplices deserve to die, they were the most important eyewitnesses and participants in the opium scandal. If they all died, the matter would be impossible to verify.
The annoying town mayor and his son will get away with it!
Su Feng would never agree to something like that.
He leaped into the yellow sand again, arrived at the backyard, and roughly threw the unconscious Scarface and his men out of the yard.
However, while searching for the dragon slayer, they discovered that the figure that had been motionless on the ground was gone.
Only an arm remained on the ground, torn off, with blood still gushing from the severed end.
"Tsk..."
Su Feng raised an eyebrow.
He is a ruthless person.
It seems that this sudden accident distracted him temporarily, causing the spiritual energy that flowed into Tu Long's body to be diluted, and thus the power of the Soul Searching Technique was also weakened.
Therefore, in such a situation, the dragon slayer would resort to such an extreme method: breaking off its arm to activate the body's cells, regaining control, and then escaping.
"Never mind, we'll go and catch him later."
……
woohoo-
Tu Long ran wildly all the way, almost escaping the boundaries of Jiuquan Town, and arrived at the high slope of the back mountain.
He could only hear his own breathing and the sound of his heartbeat.
Perhaps it was the increased heart rate that caused the blood to flow faster, resulting in more blood flowing from the wound.
Blood seeped from the severed wound on his right arm, staining the blue cloth crimson, and dripped onto the ground.
Tu Long's face was pale and bloodless, with hot sweat constantly streaming down his forehead.
He glanced back, but there seemed to be no further movement behind him.
It seems I have escaped safely.
"saved……"
With a sigh of relief, my tense nerves gradually relaxed, and my body went limp as I slumped down on the spot.
He ran nearly ten kilometers in one go, which was already his limit given his current injury.
"Damn it, what bad luck..." Tu Long groaned, clicking his tongue and cursing under his breath.
Not only was his business ruined, but then an incredibly powerful young man appeared and taught him a lesson he couldn't forget.
Now, all they can do is cut off an arm to survive and flee in a sorry state.
But this was a stroke of luck amidst misfortune; if the church hadn't suddenly collapsed, he probably wouldn't have been able to escape.
There's no time to worry about that now. 4.2
Tu Long struggled to sit up and emptied the contents of his Qiankun bag. Most of the previous items had been taken away, and even the ointment for stopping bleeding was gone.
"Robbers!"
The dragon slayer wailed pitifully.
With his current physical strength, he could not continue traveling, so he could only sit down and try to absorb the surrounding spiritual energy to replenish himself, and continue traveling when the pain from his wounds subsided.
Even though the wide mountaintop made him an easy target, he had no other choice.
"call--"
Exhaling a breath of stale air, Tu Long sat cross-legged, gathering his energy in one hand, gradually repairing his own damage.
But just then, he realized something, and his face twitched.
This is a strange aura...
"what happened?"
Tu Long opened his eyes and slowly looked up at the sky.
This sight left him stunned.
Less than five meters above him, a cloud of black mist floated...
At the center of that black mist was an "object" that looked like a human.
With just one glance, Tu Long felt an icy chill that sent shivers down his spine, and he couldn't help but scream.
His desperate voice echoed throughout the canyon, but received no response.
Until it stops...

Chapter 153 Divide the Army into Two Groups! Su Feng: I Have a Clever Plan
The sudden collapse of the church caused a great commotion.
Even when the security team came to control the situation, they could not suppress the residents' curiosity and anger, who all questioned why such a dangerous thing had happened.
If it were a natural disaster or man-made calamity, that would be easier to explain.
But this time, only the church was destroyed.
Fear, worry, and all sorts of emotions filled the faces of different people.
In the end, it was Jiang Dalong who had to step in to stop the commotion.
One sentence from the warlord immediately silenced all the residents from causing any more trouble.
But that doesn't mean the matter is over.
Su Feng told the story to Uncle Jiu, who was late, and then they entered the ruined church together.
The aftershocks have stopped, and there will be no secondary collapse. Su Feng is trying to find key clues in this situation.
For example, that sudden burst of demonic energy...
The escaped Western devil...
All of this seemed to be foreshadowed, but he hadn't noticed it before.
For some reason, Father Wu also joined their group.
Despite Uncle Jiu's repeated persuasion, Father Wu wouldn't listen.
His expression remained somewhat blank.
The destruction of the church and the collapse of the Jesus statue were a great blow to him.
There was only one sentence uttered from his mouth.
"They're still down there..."
With this in mind, Su Feng found a peculiar underground entrance.
Strangely, even though the church collapsed and huge stones and wooden blocks fell, it did not seem to have any effect on the underground space.
When I came down, the surroundings were still spotless, as if they had been cleaned.
As Su Feng entered the passage, he smelled a strong stench of blood.
The aura emanated from the open stone door in front.
Father Wu pushed aside Su Feng and Uncle Jiu and rushed into the stone door first.
Immediately following was a wail of pain.
Su Feng and Uncle Jiu approached and took a look, but could only remain silent.
In the spacious area behind the stone gate, several bodies lay...
Or rather, it's impossible to tell exactly how many corpses there are.
The corpse was rotting, with the skin and flesh stuck together.
