Chapter 269 Four Heroes Battle the Raccoon (Revised)

Boom—!

The sudden explosion on the ground alerted the martial arts practitioners guarding the entrance.

However, in the smoke of the explosion, a short, dark figure rushed into the house.

"Someone's there!"

"Keep an eye on the merfolk!"

"The other team, send someone to inform the clan chief and elders to check on Gu Liangrui's residence!"

The monk swiftly gave the order, and from his voice, Jia Xitong knew they didn't have much time left to rescue the people.

She rushed into the room and gathered her spiritual power to strike at the chains binding Meiji.

The chain wasn't broken.

She reactivated her spiritual power, using eighty percent of it.

With a clang, the iron chain still didn't break, but the fact that the chain didn't break caused Meiji to scream in pain.

"These chains are made of Xuan Yan Iron. If attacked by external force, the attack will turn into a heat torture for the person who is bound."

Upon hearing this, Jia Xitong looked at the chain and, sure enough, the section of the chain near Meiji had turned bright red, even scorching into Meiji's flesh.

"Wait, how do I open this?"

Jia Xitong inquired.

How do I open it?

The speaker sneered, "You audacious little thief, surrender now!"

No sooner had she finished speaking than a fierce attack came at her.

A sharp sword aura flew over her head, carrying an aura that seemed poised to cleave her in two.

Jia Xitong swiftly met his attack head-on, dispersing all the sword energy opposite her. At the same time, she looked at the wooden beams from which the iron chains stretched upwards.

If you can't break the chain, then pull it off the wooden beam and then smash the jar containing the Demoness.

At this moment, all the martial arts practitioners outside rushed in.

Jia Xitong frowned and pulled out another handful of explosive talismans from her hand. The talismans flew out in all directions, instantly blasting the walls of the room and causing them to collapse in all directions.

In the instant of collapse, she summoned the Water Cloud Boat. With all her might, she pushed Meiji onto it and steered the Water Cloud Boat out of the collapsed roof.

The moment it took off, Huo Ruixun, who was hiding in the corner, rushed up and jumped onto the Water Cloud Boat.

The coordination can be described as perfect.

"Mei Ji!"

"Owner!"

The two embraced tightly on the water-cloud boat, but after only a moment of reunion, Meiji's body leaned back and she let out a painful cry.

It's an iron chain!

Jia Xitong raised the Water Cloud Boat into the air, but the iron chain attached to Mei Ji was still hanging below it. The chain was now tightly held by the martial artists below, like a kite being flown.

"ah--!"

Meiji screamed as she was dragged a long way, her body half-suspended in mid-air beside the Water Cloud Boat.

"Mei Ji!"

Huo Rui rushed up and hugged her, trying to break the chains with all his might.

Jia Xitong looked down the boat and followed the iron chain downwards.

"It's here! Form the formation!"

The martial artists below positioned themselves on either side of the iron chain, simultaneously forming a strange finger gesture. Daggers materialized around them and flew towards the raccoon.

Jia Xitong slammed on the brakes.

She tumbled and leaped between the blades, her body hair being cut off several times by the daggers.

She took out the Hun Tian Bracelet and smashed it downwards.

With immense spiritual power, the Hun Tian Bracelet, trailing a trail of light, charged towards the crowd. The group of Martial Spirit stage cultivators were utterly powerless to resist, and Jia Xitong easily snatched the chains back from their grasp.

"Pull it up!"

She shouted towards the sky, and Huo Ruixun on the Water Cloud Boat reacted.

However, at that moment, a powerful aura of a Martial Grandmaster emanated from ahead, "How dare you!"

It was Gu Liangcong who arrived with a group of elders. The group worked together to strike the Water Cloud Boat in the sky, attempting to bring it down.

Huo Ruichong

He reached the front, but only managed to hold out for a second before being hit and coughing up blood.

Upon seeing this, Gu Liangcong immediately stopped.

“Clan leader, Gu Liangrui has colluded with outsiders to steal the medicinal ingredients. You cannot continue to condone this!"

"right!

For the sake of a mere merman, he actually disregarded the Grand Elder's life; Gu Liangrui is a traitor to the family!

"Capture him alive or execute him; we must not let him go!"

With pressure from multiple elders, even with his status as clan leader, Gu Liangcong found it difficult to protect Gu Liangrui.

"You bastard, surrender now!"

"Enough with the nonsense."

Huo Rui drew his weapon. "If you want to hurt Mei Ji, you'll have to step over my dead body first!"

A major battle is imminent, but Huo Rui is just a weakling with a combat value of five. In the end, it will be Little Raccoon who has to take the lead.

Jia Xitong moved among the four martial masters.

As a talisman cultivator, she couldn't win in close combat, so she kept creating distance and attacked with more powerful lightning-attracting talismans and the Hun Tian Bracelet.

A powerful magical beast!

This was the conclusion reached by the four martial arts masters simultaneously when they fought the raccoon.

"How did he subdue this magical beast?"

An elder was puzzled.

Under normal circumstances, the magical beasts a cultivator can subdue should be commensurate with their own strength. A cultivator can only subdue magical beasts at a level equal to their own strength.

Gu Liangrui's strength is only at the Martial Spirit level, so how did he obtain a magical beast with the strength of a Martial Grandmaster?

Jia Xitong didn't have time to answer their questions.

Of the four martial artists present, three are at the early stage of Martial Grandmaster, and one is at the middle stage. In reality, she wasn't as relaxed as she appeared.

The longer it drags on, the worse it will be for them. In order to leave the Gu Liang clan as soon as possible, she chose the weakest elder as her breakthrough point.

However, after a prolonged confrontation, her weaknesses were exposed.

"Close combat!"

Gu Liangcong shouted, and everyone rushed towards her.

Jia Xitong quickly summoned the Hun Tian Bracelet. However, the Hun Tian Bracelet only forced back two people, and Gu Liangcong and another elder rushed over, forming a pincer attack from the southeast.

"careful!"

Huo Rui descended from the sky. Although his strength was lacking, he did not back down at this moment. Gu Liangcong faced Huo Rui, and the force of his heavily slashing weapon was deflected.

"Gu Liangrui, it's not too late to stop now!"

"As long as Meiji lives, I live; if Meiji dies, I die!"

"You bastard!"

Upon hearing this, the elder beside him was enraged and attacked Huo Rui with his weapon. Gu Liangcong's arm trembled at the sight. He knew that with his younger brother's current strength, this attack from the elder would either kill or seriously injure Gu Liangrui.

But in the end he abandoned the plan.

They stood still, neither attacking nor stopping, watching as the elder's attack headed towards Huo Rui.

clang--!

Releasing spiritual energy.

A shield made of spiritual energy blocked Huo Rui and the raccoon. The golden light of the dragon scales on Jia Xitong's forehead shimmered, and her aura suddenly changed.

That's right, she's going to show off!

The golden pen in his hand also turned golden, and each stroke, though seemingly slow, was completed in an instant.

The Four Symbols Transform into an Illusory Symbol.

The golden talisman absorbed the spiritual power of heaven and earth, rising into the sky and growing larger and larger. Then, it pressed down onto the ground, unleashing devastating power that shattered the protective array of the Gu Liang clan and destroyed all the surrounding buildings!

The attack, delivered by a near-Martial King, meant that few in the vicinity escaped unscathed.

Even Gu Liangcong looked at the little beast in shock; it was unremarkable in appearance, yet terrifyingly powerful!
