Chapter 283
However, facing the black mist that was shot out by the black shadow, Zachary, who had been prepared for this, had already released the smell of herbs in front of him, completely separating the black mist.
His speed didn't seem to be affected in the slightest, and he threw a powerful punch at the black shadow.
The shadow's retreating speed was not slow, and in the blink of an eye, it arrived in front of the window. However, because this was the antique storage room, many of the collections could not see strong light at all. Hence, the only small window in the room was built high and small, causing the shadow's fleeing speed to immediately slow down.
In this short period of time, Zachary's fist was already in front of his body, and the strong momentum made the black shadow cry out in surprise.
"Boom!" "Boom!"Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
The black shadow slapped Zachary's fist and it collided with Zachary's.
However, it was obvious that his panicked palm naturally couldn't resist Zachary's fist. The black shadow let out a muffled groan, and his body quickly retreated.
"Let's drink!"
Zachary shouted in a low voice and threw his left fist forward with a loud bang.
Pu!
At this moment, the black shadow suddenly spat out a mouthful of liquid.
Zachary smelled a bloody smell and was shocked. He quickly held his breath, but his body still kept rushing forward.
As the strong smell of blood came, Zachary felt a familiar feeling in it, and he was even more shocked. The smell of herbs in his body suddenly broke out, and his speed increased again.
In this small space, Zachary's speed was obviously faster than the black shadow's. In the twinkling of an eye, Zachary's left fist hit the other side's chest. The other side gave a muffled hum, and his body twisted, trying to escape. However, Zachary would not let the fish that he had gotten slip away. He used all his strength, twisted the other's arm, and pressed it firmly on the ground, unable to move.
"Hey, hero, I surrender, I surrender."
After being subdued by Zachary, the other party quickly admitted defeat and quickly surrendered.
Zachary didn't let down his guard so easily. He moved his right hand repeatedly and clicked on the black shadow a few times, making him unable to move. Then he let go of his left arm and turned on the lights in the collection room. Under the light, Zachary saw that it was a man in black, wearing a full-body black suit, with only a pair of eyes exposed.
"It's you!" Pulling off the hood on the head of the black shadow, Zachary could not help but exclaim when he saw the appearance of the other party.
"It's you!" At this moment, when the black shadow saw Zachary's face, he was also surprised. Then his face was full of remorse. "How could I be so unlucky to fall into your hands again?"
"Tell me, what the hell is going on? Elder Lei!" Zachary looked coldly at the old man in front of him.
This guy was none other than the old chaperone Zachary met the last time he came to the Antique Row to buy some presents for Abby.
At that time, relying on a mouthful of poisonous blood, this guy finally escaped from Zachary's mouth. But he didn't expect that in this situation, the two sides would meet again.
"Dr. Ching, please let me go. I mean no harm." Lei Lao was not arrogant at all this time. At the same time, he directly called out Zachary's name. Obviously, after the last incident, he had investigated Zachary's information.
"No malice!" Zachary narrowed his eyes and said, "You almost killed a girl, and you also said that you meant no malice."
Lei Lao quickly clasped his hands and begged for mercy, "Dr. Ching, I didn't mean it! I just wanted to absorb a little Yin Qi. I don't want to hurt anyone."
"Absorb Yin Qi! Tell me more about it," Zachary said.
Lei Lao took a look at Zachary and had to explain, "Last time on the antique street, I believe you know, Dr. Ching, that I am a cultivator, but I am not a cultivator who can meet people." "Can't you see people? It's obviously an evil cultivator." Zachary shouted.
Lei Lao immediately cried out for injustice, "Dr. Ching, you've wronged me. Although my cultivation method is a bit strange, it's still orthodox. It's definitely not an evil cultivation. I'm..." "Let's talk about your identity later. Tell us your purpose in breaking into the Song family." Zachary shouted.
The silver-haired Lei Lao had no room to resist at the moment. He looked at Zachary and said, "Last time when you fought with Dr. Ching on the antique street, I spat out a mouthful of poisonous blood and my body was injured. So I tried to find a way to repair my body. The cultivation method of our sect is different from ordinary cultivators'. We can't absorb the common Spiritual Qi of heaven and earth. We can only absorb Yin Qi to replenish our body."
"The Yin Qi that our sect absorbs is not the same as the Yin Qi of a grave or a dead person. They are the real evil cultivators." Lei Lao explained. "Anyway, I need to absorb a relatively orthodox Yin Qi to heal my wounds. But in this era, let alone the orthodox Yin Qi, even the Spiritual Qi is very scarce. The orthodox Yin Qi I need, however, is very limited and only contains some of it in some antiques."

"Absorbing Yin energy from the antique street." Zachary nodded gently, which was an eye-opener. At the same time, he secretly thought that it was no wonder that Elder Lei had been hiding in the antique street all the time. It turned out that he wanted to absorb the Yin energy from the antique street.
Seeing Zachary nodding, Lei Lao seemed to be relieved and continued to talk, "When it comes to antiques, there are not many places in Ludington City. First of all, I don't need to say much about the fake antiques in the antique street. In addition, I was worried that you would investigate me over there, so I didn't go back. Secondly, in the museum, there were many antiques, but the guards were also very strict. There was also the post of State Public Daily. I didn't dare to go there, so I finally thought of President Song's family."
"When I came to President Song's house, I found that there were many antiques in it, and the Yin Qi in them was also very good. But he had been at home all the time, so it was not convenient for me to directly cultivate here. Therefore, I chose a suitable place to draw the Spirit Gathering Array, and collected the Yin Qi in the antique into the jade stone at the eye of the formation, and then I found another jade to cultivate when I had spare time."
After listening to this, Zachary's opinion of Lei Lao had some changes. Originally, he thought that this guy was an evil cultivator who specialized in cultivation, but he did not expect that he just wanted to absorb the evil energy from antiques. However, as for the fact that Song Yunxi was almost implicated because of this, Zachary couldn't just let it go.
His face turned serious, and he stared at Lei Lao and shouted, "You almost killed an innocent girl for your own interests. How do you explain this?"
Lei Lao's expression changed and he revealed a look of guilt. "This time, it's true that I didn't think it through properly. I laid down a Spirit Convergence Array in her room, but I didn't think that she was just an ordinary person and couldn't withstand the invasion of Yin Qi. I was too anxious to heal myself and didn't think of this."
"Do you think it's enough just because you didn't think of it?" Zachary shouted.
Lei Lao quickly waved his hand and said, "Dr. Ching, I am not a good person, but I will not harm innocent people. I just found the girl's condition not long ago. For this, I also specially bought herbs and prepared a pill that can increase Yang Qi. I was going to find a chance to let her take it."
"Really?" Zachary changed his view of Lei Lao.
"Absolutely true." Lei Lao said in a hurry. He quickly took out a small box from his body and opened it. There was indeed a small dark red pill in it.
Zachary sniffed a little and recognized the effect of the pill, which was similar to what Lei Lao said.
