Chapter 7 Golden Eyes
"It turns out that the Guardians of Ming Dynasty are so useless that they can't even defeat a mere demon." Qilang folded his arms and stared at Zhang Qingchen with an arrogant look.
"You are so young, yet you are so arrogant." Zhang Qingchen felt helpless. He didn't expect that his junior sister's husband was a young man. He was already an adult, and it would be inappropriate for him to get angry with such a child, as it would seem that he was not magnanimous enough.
"Senior Brother, Qilang has no ill intentions, please don't take it to heart." Li Yuanying quickly explained.
"I think what this gentleman said makes a lot of sense," the red-dressed woman said. She sneered, "As a Guardian of the Ming Dynasty, you are actually afraid of the enemy and only want to be a coward. How ridiculous."
"Really?" Zhang Qingchen's voice sank. "To be brave without strategy is nothing but stupidity."
"Brave but not wise? That's just the self-consolation of the weak." Qilang said with sarcasm and disdain in his eyes.
"Don't be afraid, senior brother. Today my husband will avenge your colleagues and cut that demon into pieces." Li Yuanying suddenly turned around and patted Qilang on the shoulder.
She glanced at Qilang, ignoring his look of surprise and anger: "My husband is invincible and undefeated. A little demon is just like crushing an ant, right?"
Li Yuanying found Qilang's expression somewhat amusing. Who told him to be so insistent on exchanging blows? It just so happened that she didn't want to leave Shengle Township. If she left on her own, but Eunuch Li and the two guards got into trouble here, it would be hard to say what would happen when she arrived at the palace.
"Okay, today I will let you see the difference between this mediocre person and me." Qilang wore green sleeves, a white jade hair crown, and his black hair flowed in the wind. He stepped lightly on the ground with a light posture, and in a few steps he reached the green tiles on the roof.
"Let's go and see what's going on." Li Yuanying also followed.
Zhang Qingchen also flew forward with the woman in red.
When the four of them stood on the roof of Hehe Inn, they had a panoramic view of the magnificent scenery of Shengle Township.
The warm room is fragrant, the music is melodious, the actors are beautiful, and the joy is carefree.
Monsters and humans, men and women, just like the name of this Hehe Inn, live in harmony, indulge in debauchery and extravagance.
I believe that among these people, some will run out of yang energy the next day and die in this empty dream.
Li Yuanying had exchanged a few moves with Qilang and had a rough idea of his abilities, but she didn't know if Qilang had restrained himself a bit, so she wanted to see his true abilities today.
Qilang concentrated his mind and calmed down. He raised his right hand and a ball of fire burned in his hand. When the fire subsided, he had an umbrella with a thin layer of flames all around it in his hand.
But the fire was strangely blue-green. The umbrella was even more wonderful, a shimmering silver, with bells tinkling from each rib, creating a truly magnificent sight.
Qilang's brow furrowed. This was the first time he'd seen the flames from the Soul-Slaying Flame Umbrella in his hand so weak. It seemed the blood bracelets were suppressing his demonic power too strongly, as if there was something within them that was naturally incompatible with him.
He looked at Li Yuanying beside him. Her bright eyes were hazy, her cheeks were flushed, and her expression was quite serious, as if she was expecting something.
Suddenly, the four felt a shock under their feet, a strong wind blew, and thick purple smoke rose.
Li Yuanying glanced at the moon. It was already three o'clock in the morning. This was the time when the demon was at its strongest. She had hurt her before, and she was coming to settle the score with her.
Li Yuanying felt the green tiles beneath her feet split, and she immediately jumped away: "Be careful!"
The other three also moved away at the same time.
The green tiles disappeared like dust, and the huge Hehe Inn was split into two. A giant monster emerged from the ground, and her pair of huge golden eyes were captivating.
"My husband, quickly take down the demon with one strike!" Li Yuanying did not forget to tease Qilang even at the critical moment.
She knew that with Qilang's current skills, it would be impossible for him to defeat a monster of this level in one move.
Qilang did not chant. He waved his umbrella and a blue flame attacked the demon. When the flame collided with the demon, the demon let out a violent scream.
Blue fire burned at the succubus's wounds, and she twisted in pain and howled in horror.
Did it really work? Li Yuanying was a little surprised. Qilang's magic looked neither Taoist nor demonic, strange and unpredictable.
I've never seen a righteous fire technique produce a dark blue flame. Even stranger was the fact that he didn't even need to chant to cast the spell.
But the demon didn't howl for long. She felt something was wrong and slapped the flame hard, and the fire went out. She was stunned for a moment, and then laughed wildly.
Her golden eyes turned towards Qilang and said, "Go to hell!"
Li Yuanying felt something was amiss. Qilang was too close to the demon girl, and if his attack failed, he would be in grave danger. She regretted joking about such a thing.
She no longer hesitated and rushed over.
"Your Highness!"
A woman's scream was heard. Li Yuanying didn't have time to think much, the demon was already close at hand, but Qilang seemed unable to cast a spell again.
"May the people of the world pray for eternal peace and prosperity. Purity!"
A ray of white light rushed towards the demon, her snow-white skirt fluttered, and her slender figure stood in front of Qilang.
But she was too close to the demon, and its sharp claws were already at her chest. Li Yuanying felt a pair of hands grab her waist and drag her back. Then a silver umbrella opened before her, and a vortex of blue flames formed, pushing the demon back.
After the two of them stood still, Li Yuanying looked up at Qilang's stern face, and then she looked at the woman in red who was being held by Zhang Qingchen in the distance.
"Wanwan, are you okay?" Zhang Qingchen shouted loudly.
"Your senior brother is useless except asking if you are okay or not." Qilang said gritting his teeth.
"I'm fine." After replying to Zhang Qingchen, Li Yuanying looked at Qilang again, "Qilang, do you know that woman in red?"
"I don't know him." Qilang answered neatly with three short words.
"Really? Then why did she just call you His Highness?"
At that time, the woman shouted these two words in desperation.
"You must have heard wrong." Qi Lang rushed straight towards the demon, "Just watch from here as your husband beats up this ugly demon!"
A man and a demon fought in the air with no clear winner. The demon's blue fireworks and golden pupils were like thunder and lightning, with flames interlaced in the moonlit night sky.
"Let me go, let me help him!"
"No, be quiet."
The woman in red and Zhang Qingchen started arguing. Suddenly, the woman in red rushed towards Zhang Qingchen. While Zhang Qingchen fell to the ground, she jumped into the air. Qilang turned around and sent a flash of fire, and the rope on the woman's body broke.
The two of them worked together very well.
The woman in red took out two swords and slashed at the demon.
With the red-dressed woman joining in, the demon began to lose the upper hand. At this moment, she suddenly screamed, dug out a pair of golden pupils, and threw them into the air.
The pair of golden pupils split into two, then two into four, and soon filled the sky with them. The four of them were shocked by the sight.
Countless golden pupils obscured the sky, swollen and gurgling, their demonic aura thick and intoxicating. Suddenly, the golden pupils merged together as if melting, and the giant pupils covering the sky slowly opened. The golden light was so dazzling that it made people dizzy.
"Wanwan, close your eyes quickly!"
Li Yuanying saw Qilang rushing towards her with an anxious look on his face, but it was too late. She had already been bewitched by the golden pupil.
