Lu Wuming’s immortality was not something Liu Buli intended to argue with.
However, the current state of the former was clearly not right. If Lu Wuming were to confront the ghost clan in this condition, Liu Buli had an inexplicable intuition that the outcome would not be good.
It was precisely because of this thought that Liu Buli gritted his teeth, reached out, and gently tapped Lu Wuming on the head. He said, "What are you thinking about? Even if you are immortal, I wouldn't let him have the chance to chop you to pieces! We've already reached this point, are you still planning to go and face him head-on?"
Liu Buli thought that with his anger expressed so clearly, Lu Wuming would at least feel some fear, or at the very least, say something to please him to avoid further displeasure.
But he did not expect that this time, in response to his question, Lu Wuming would nod very seriously. Then, pointing to his head, he said, "Actually, I didn't beat him just now. My head was cut off for a moment. However, this spot seems to recover easily and reconnected instantly. It's just that perhaps because it occupied most of my energy, the recovery of other parts became slower."
Hearing his nonchalant explanation, Liu Buli was immediately startled.
And what Lu Wuming said was indeed the truth, because after sensing Liu Buli's terrified gaze, the little black cat, which had been lying in You Siqi's arms without moving, also nodded. Confirming Lu Wuming's statement, it said, "That's right, I saw that scene too. It even scared that ghost clan member. The Ghost King gave an order to capture him alive, so he didn't dare to kill Lu Wuming. But when he discovered that Lu Wuming's head was completely severed, he appeared extremely nervous. So I suspected at the time that perhaps his weakness was his head, and if it were completely severed, there would be no chance of rebirth. That's why, in that instant, he mistakenly thought he had killed Lu Wuming."
It had to be said that the information provided by Shen Muzhi was indeed of some use to them at the moment.
However, the problem was…
Liu Buli gave a wry smile and said, "With our current abilities, do you think we have the means to decapitate him?"
Upon hearing this question, identical wry smiles appeared on everyone's faces.
It was Lu Wuming, who had been acting somewhat strangely since the beginning, who frowned and said, "I think it's not impossible."
He really did want to fight to the death.
Although fighting with their backs to the wall seemed to be the only remaining option, seeing Lu Wuming like this, Liu Buli couldn't help but feel a little displeased.
Frowning forcefully, he said, "You're already so badly injured, and you still want to fight directly? I know you recovered quickly after absorbing those monsters, but you can't absorb them while fighting him, can you? If you fall behind even a little, you'll expose a weakness. And then..."
"Master, I'm really not that foolish."
Without giving Liu Buli a chance to finish, Lu Wuming interrupted him. A hint of helplessness in his smile, Lu Wuming slowly said, "Of course I know that if it were just me, I wouldn't be able to get close to him and would be chopped to pieces. Especially now that he knows I won't die even if my head is cut off, he even tested my heart just now. He stabbed me hard, and it went through. He now knows that no matter what method he uses against me, I won't die. In that case, he will only become more ruthless next time. Anyway, as long as the remaining parts are brought back, I can definitely recover, and he can also complete his mission."
Liu Buli had also considered Lu Wuming's words. If before, the other party had some reservations while fighting him to ensure his safety. Then now that he knew Lu Wuming wouldn't die no matter what, the other party would definitely fight with all his might.
Knowing this situation, and knowing that Shen Muzhi couldn't provide much help in his current state, what was he thinking to still suggest continuing to fight the other party?
After a moment of silence, carefully pondering the meaning of Lu Wuming's words, Liu Buli finally hesitated and said word by word, "Wuming, according to you, you intend for me to help you, right?"
"Master, you are indeed very smart." Lu Wuming smiled and said, "That guy is indeed very strong, but the ghost clan are all fools. They are not as good as me when it comes to things that require thinking. So, let's use the same move you used to bring us here. If we cooperate, I think we have a good chance of winning."
As he said this, the light in Lu Wuming's eyes grew brighter.
Liu Buli stared at him for a while, and finally couldn't help but laugh.
They say that concern can cloud judgment, and he now understood it.
Lu Wuming could consider such a simple matter, so why had he suddenly failed to think of it himself?
However, even though this method seemed feasible, the most important and most likely point of failure was that their cooperation had to be exceptionally tacit. If either of them made a mistake, it could lead to a complete loss. Both of them were very clear about this, but it was evident that they had more confidence in their tacit understanding.
To even try to dispel Liu Buli's worries, Lu Wuming explained, "Master, you don't need to worry about my condition. He can indeed kill me with a single sword, but I find it very strange. Perhaps due to my personal physique, after he killed me twice, I feel that the ghost energy within me has become even stronger."
For Lu Wuming, there was no true "death." So what he was referring to was the ghost clan member cutting off his head and piercing his heart.
Lu Wuming was not lying.
He truly felt it clearly.
But when these words were spoken, Liu Buli glared at him furiously and said with an irrefutable tone, "Even so, you cannot go to your death! Let's cooperate properly, or I will be angry with you!"
It was evident that Liu Buli was genuinely angry.
Lu Wuming smiled helplessly and could only nod, "Master, rest assured, I won't act recklessly."
