Chapter 142 Wen Jin vs. Lian Zhuo vs. Luo Chuan, a battleground!
"Amitabha."
The clear and melodious Buddhist chants, like the morning bell of an ancient temple, pierced through this almost fragile moment of tenderness without warning.
The powerful golden Buddhist light, carrying the force to tear through the alley, descended upon Wen Jin, who stood before Hua Li.
Huali blinked blankly, momentarily thinking that the golden mountain that had disappeared from the Illusion Platform had returned.
The moment the Buddha's light appeared, the confusion in the Demon Lord's eyes was instantly replaced by icy killing intent. He pulled the girl in his arms into his embrace and suddenly spun around at an unbelievable angle. His wide sleeves whipped out, and Nine Ghostly Flames swiftly shot towards the Buddha's disciple from beneath his feet.
Sizzle—
As the ghostly fire and the Buddha's light collided violently, producing a piercing burning sound, Wen Jin's gaze was fixed on the figure standing tall under the moonlight at the alley entrance.
Lian Zhuo was dressed in a moon-white monk's robe, and the lotus pattern between his eyebrows swirled with a red halo under the moonlight. His pupils, which should have been calm and undisturbed, were now surging with a deep-sea-like anger.
"Wen Jin, let her go!"
Lotus bath arrived in an instant, and the two spiritual energies collided a second time.
"Heh, my little pear blossom is indeed adorable, but even the most fragrant wildflower can never grace a grand hall." A magnetic, languid voice came from the shadows of another alleyway.
The ice spikes, like lurking venomous snakes, pierced the air with lightning speed.
However, the target of the attack was not Lian Zhuo and Wen Jin, but the white roses with an unsightly bow in the little girl's hand.
Beneath Luo Chuan's gilded mask, his heterochromatic eyes flashed with deep possessiveness and displeasure. Although he had anticipated this scene when he came to Tianlan City, now that it had actually happened, he still couldn't help but want to kill these two eyesores immediately.
Seeing Huali looking over, the Demon King suppressed the killing intent in his eyes and curled his lips into a smile. "The flowers in little Huali's hand look quite lovely. Why don't I keep them for you?"
Wen Jin's pale golden pupils instantly darkened, and the small mole under his eye resembled a blood-stained demon. He roared furiously, "Get out!"
In the blink of an eye, the Demon Lord, the Buddha's Son, and the Demon King formed a three-way standoff, completely surrounding Huali, creating a tense atmosphere!
Upon seeing this scene, Ao Bai, who had just run over, gasped and immediately slammed on the brakes.
Unfortunately, the diligent kitten was too panicked. As the cat cart went out of control and flipped forward, it slammed on the ground face-first, its pink nose sliding a meter before crashing into Huali's feet.
Ao Bai: "...Damn it, I'm calling the police."
Huali, who had been completely oblivious, finally snapped out of it. She looked at Luochuan, then at Lianzhuo, pursed her lips, and waved the bare rosebud in her hand. "...Hey, you two...have you eaten?"
These words immediately drew three menacing stares.
Karin: "?! Hiccup!"
Sensing something was amiss, she smiled slightly, slowly hiding the flower stem behind her back, and sincerely suggested, "...Why don't you continue?" Don't look at her anymore; she looks like she's about to devour you.
Luo Chuan, Lian Zhuo, and Wen Jin all fell silent, a rare occurrence.
The girl was clearly still out of it, her eyes tinged with a drunken haze, like she'd applied a touch of pink rouge. Suddenly, as if struck by a sudden thought, she resolutely raised her head, holding up a single finger with earnest focus, "But I still have to say something, of course, this is just a suggestion."
“It is not advisable to engage in gang fights in the streets. You are all people of status. Be careful that you are not doxxed by the internet.”
She pointed to the vendors who had cowered under the table in fright, "They're just small businesses, and they've worked so hard to make money thanks to the popularity of the Dream Realm. You could ruin their hard-earned business with a casual wave of your hand."
Ao Bai stared at the three increasingly silent faces, then quickly climbed onto the unfortunate creature and whipped her with his tail. "Still talking! Still talking! Run away!"
The girl remained unmoved, her almond-shaped eyes clear and resolute. "We must strive to be civilized people, do civilized things, and create a civilized city!"
"Of course, if you're going to pay me back, I have nothing to say." Huali changed the subject, "But then again, what's wrong with having that money? Why do you have to fight?"
Demon Lord: "..."
Buddhist disciple: "..."
Luo Chuan: "...Heh."
With a flick of his wrist, the Demon King revealed a fist-sized high-grade spirit stone in his palm. The red coral bead hanging from his black hair swayed slightly as he tilted his head. He smiled enticingly and said, "Little Pear, come on, I'll take you to play."
Huali's eyes lit up.
Before he could even act, the Nine Netherworld Flames beneath Wen Jin's feet instantly surged towards the Demon King. "Get lost! It's none of your business to interfere with my people!"
A glint flashed in Luo Chuan's eyes, and the ice spike, carrying merciless killing intent, pierced towards Wen Jin. The two collided, Wen Jin's body swayed, and he immediately spat out a mouthful of blood.
Hua Li was startled and immediately went to look, only to hear Luo Chuan's voice filled with grievance, "Little Hua Li, it wasn't me who attacked first~ If you hadn't protected yourself, it would have been me who got hurt~"
Wen Jin wiped the blood from the corner of his lips, his eyes blazing with murderous intent like a volcano. "Hypocritical, utterly disgusting!"
Huali looked at this one and then that one, and finally decided to place her hopes on Lianzhuo. The Buddhist disciple has such a gentle personality, he must be different from these two!
However, it turned out that she was completely wrong!
Lian Zhuo, contrary to his usual behavior, joined the battle, frowning and scolding, "The secret realm is about to open, where was the Demon Lord taking Hua Li just now?" His gaze was as cold as ice, "And the Demon King, there is a difference between men and women. If you tarnish her reputation again, don't blame this humble monk for being impolite!"
As soon as she finished speaking, a condensed golden chain suddenly split off from the Buddhist light in Lian Zhuo's hand, attempting to bypass the ghostly fire and ice spikes that were wrapped around Hua Li's wrist and pull the girl behind her.
"You're courting death!" Wen Jin instantly flew into a rage, his surging spiritual power transforming into a demonic hand that slashed down at Lian Zhuo's head!
As he shattered the chains formed by the Buddha's light, Luo Chuan chuckled and appeared behind Hua Li with lightning speed. "Little Hua Li, look how fierce they are. I'm still the best, aren't I?"
With Ao Bai on her head, Hua Li was caught between the triple energies of ghostly fire, Buddhist light, and ice cones, feeling as if she were in a 3D special effects movie.
My head is buzzing.
At that moment, Pear Queen suddenly felt a deep empathy for Chen Jianbin, the chubby orange. She swayed and shook her head, wondering if it was just her imagination, but the earth-shaking that had started seemed to have intensified.
"Ao Bai, don't you feel the ground moving?"
Steward Ao has sacrificed so much for this family. At this moment, the airplane ear is nestled on Huali's head. "It's alright, the world will be destroyed in a moment."
Huali frowned. "I'm telling you, it's true."
A man and a cat whispered to each other, while the battleground between the three men had already reached a fever pitch.
The surging undercurrents between them and their possessiveness, which had materialized into reality, were completely exposed to each other.
Lian Zhuo's gaze was as clear as a cold pool. "No matter what, no one can go against Hua Li's own wishes." His gaze was fixed on the girl, with a tension he himself was unaware of.
Wen Jin's fingers tightened suddenly, his pale golden eyes fixed on Hua Li. "You said...to celebrate our reunion..."
The smile faded from Luo Chuan's lips, and his heterochromatic eyes became more serious than ever before. "Little Pear... if you don't choose me, I really will cry..."
Huali, who was discussing earthquake safety with Aobai, looked up in bewilderment, "Huh? Me?"
