Chapter 193 Help from the Dark

Xu Chuchu opened her mouth but no words came out.

She admitted that the Grand Master's remarks were indeed clever.

"So... young lady," the Grand Master said slowly, "there is no absolute good or evil. You and I are of the same kind. Help me, and don't feel guilty or remorseful. Perhaps you will agree with me in the future. When you understand the subtleties of Buddhism, you can abandon Taoism and turn to Buddhism. The Buddhist door will always be open to you."

He is like a patient and tolerant missionary, trying to bring the misguided Xu Chuchu back to the right path.

After saying so much, Xu Chuchu lowered her eyes, as if lost in thought, and then nodded slowly, apparently convinced.

"Your insights are indeed unique." She said, moving forward instead of retreating, stepping towards the Grand Master. "But regarding our cooperation, I would like to discuss this with you in detail. I..."

Seeing that the Grand Master's smile was getting deeper and deeper, she suddenly raised her Floating Life Umbrella and attacked him fiercely in the face!

"There's no way I'd help you, you old MLM scammer!"

The spiritual energy arrows like lightning flew straight towards the Grand Master's eyes. He subconsciously dodged, frowned, and immediately raised his staff to block all the directions behind Xu Chuchu!

"You actually pretended to compromise and tricked me into letting my guard down!" the Grand Master exclaimed angrily. "Taoists are truly dishonest!"

Unexpectedly, Xu Chuchu had no intention of retreating, but instead rushed straight towards him!

The spiritual arrow that he dodged hit the thin fence behind him with a loud bang, creating a gap half a person's height.

Xu Chuchu did not stop, brushed past the great national teacher, and rushed towards the gap!

It turns out that her original intention was not to attack him, but to attack the wall behind him!

"It's the same here, Grand Master!" she cried. "But I must correct you. There is indeed no absolute fairness or justice in this world. Those with the ability should shoulder their responsibilities and establish a more equitable order, rather than using these evils as an excuse to slaughter innocent people!"

"And me! I never thought I was innocent of stealing your energy. I knew what I was doing. I'm not a saint, and I'm not the same kind of person as you!"

"Don't even think about escaping! Once you hear my secret, you must stay here!" The Grand Master shouted, turning his staff. A golden dragon instantly condensed and pounced towards Xu Chuchu's back!

She had never seen such a fast casting speed!

The power gap between the giant dragon and the ordinary spiritual arrow is too big!

Xu Chuchu stood by the tower, turned around, faced the flying dragon, and opened the umbrella of life.

The moment the dragon charged, she was propelled out of the tower by the powerful force, hurtling outward. Under the force, she could barely hold onto the umbrella handle. But she wanted to use this power to escape further!

"Big Orange!——" she shouted in the air, "Go!"

An orange-yellow figure suddenly jumped out from the tree on the ground and flew out with her.

Both of them are very fast, but how could the Grand Master let them go easily?

He stood on the tower and twirled his staff again.

This time it was no longer an invisible dragon. The blazing flames, accompanied by powerful spiritual power, condensed together and rushed towards Xu Chuchu again!

Xu Chuchu was still in mid-air at this time, with no way to escape. He could only curl up his body as much as possible and hide himself behind the umbrella.

At the same time, he gathered his spiritual power to form a shield in front of him to protect himself.

After taking the giant dragon's attack, several holes were burned on the umbrella's surface, and the frame on one side was directly broken.

The next attack was accompanied by fire, and fire naturally overcomes wood. If it hit the Floating Life Umbrella head-on, it would be completely destroyed. Even she would be seriously injured and could barely save her life.

She just hoped that Daju could hide far away at this time, and then take advantage of the explosion to take the injured her away.

She couldn't fall into the hands of the Grand Master, even if he pretended to agree. She was concerned about too many people and things, and the Grand Master had ten thousand ways to force her to submit.

Seeing the fierce flames coming towards him, Xu Chuchu could no longer watch. He shrank his body and hid behind the umbrella, waiting to be burned by the next flames.

Three, two... She closed her eyes tightly and counted down silently.

However, nothing happened, not even a hint of warmth was felt.

She subconsciously looked up, only to see that a thick wall of air had appeared in front of her, blocking all attacks.

With the existence of this wall, the flame seemed to be cut off in the middle, stopping abruptly half a meter away from her, licking the wall frantically but failing to create any cracks.

Xu Chuchu was stunned, then adjusted his body and, with the help of the umbrella, slowly landed on the ground.

Daju grabbed her arm from the side and said, "Chuchu, hurry up! This old monk is so awesome!"

Xu Chuchu immediately turned around and pulled him out to escape. After running a few steps, he turned back to look at the Grand Master.

I saw him standing alone on a high tower, constantly launching attacks in all directions, in a chaotic and indiscriminate manner, as if... he couldn't see where they were.

"Big Orange," she asked as she ran, "Did you put up that air wall just now?"

"Didn't you put it there?!" Daju asked back.

Xu Chuchu was shocked: "How can I put up such a powerful wall?"

"If you can't even release it, how can I?" Daju complained, "Chuchu, you idiot."

Xu Chuchu is speechless.

She understood the logic, but this was the Grand Master's territory, surrounded by his people. Besides Da Ju, who else would help her? Who else had the ability to directly withstand the Grand Master's full-strength attack?!

And seeing how the Grand Master is attacking blindly now, it seems like this person has helped them hide their bodies, so the Grand Master can't find him?

Who could it be?

Was it... Xiao Yu? He had discovered her? So he came here to help her in the dark?

Impossible, he is only at the third level of cultivation. Even if he works hard these days, he can't surpass her.

Seeing that they had arrived at the gate, Xu Chuchu no longer had the heart to think about anything else and took Daju into the dark night.

A man and a cat hid their breath and ran wildly on the empty and deserted streets.

Houses and shops with closed doors flew past the two men quickly, and they were getting farther and farther away from the Imperial Observatory, which was being bombarded.

Xu Chuchu happened to pass by the Xiao Mansion along the way and took a look.

The door plaque that was once clean and tidy is now covered with dust. The big red hydrangeas hung on both sides during the wedding are half fallen and half dropped on the beam. It is unknown how long no one has taken care of it.
