"boom…"
He roared and unleashed a powerful killing move, hurtling towards the Heavenly Yaksha.
"you…"
The Heavenly Demon seemed surprised by the human's strength. Now that he was completely unable to dodge, he could only say viciously, "Even if I die, I will drag you down with me!"
Then it opened its mouth wide and spat a glob of black, sticky liquid at the old man.
The old man was now in a bloodthirsty frenzy, having completely abandoned all defenses in his attempt to save the woman's soul. As a result, he was vomited all over himself.
Fortunately, he managed to retrieve the woman's soul, but it was also stained with the black slime.
"Sizzle..."
The black viscous liquid seemed to have extremely corrosive properties, and the golden sphere was constantly melting, its aura gradually weakening.
"No, Qing'er, if you die, how will Grandpa explain to your father?"
Seeing this, a resolute look finally appeared in the old man's eyes, and he quickly formed hand seals, adding various runes to his primordial spirit.
"Pfft..."
Once the hand seals were fully formed, the old man spat out a mouthful of blood and pulled his hands upwards, shouting, "Rise!"
"Whoosh..."
As the old man performed a series of actions, the black slime began to peel off the light sphere little by little, eventually turning into nothingness in the air, and the corrosion stopped.
"That's great, that's really... that's great..."
Seeing this, the old man quickly took out a jade pendant and placed the ball of light inside it, tears streaming down his face. "As long as Qing'er is alright, even if I die, it's worth it... cough cough..."
The old man had barely uttered a single sentence when he coughed up several mouthfuls of blood, and his breath instantly weakened.
"Human, you have wounded me severely; you are doomed today!"
Just then, a cold, hoarse voice came from the smoke and dust ahead.
The old man looked up and saw that the Heavenly Yaksha from before was not dead. Although he was seriously injured, he was more than capable of killing him now.
He had just used his family's forbidden technique to save the girl, and now he was at his limit, with virtually no chance of retaliation.
Since the Heavenly Demon is still alive, he can't escape today...
He was unwilling, truly unwilling. If the person who came with him hadn't suddenly betrayed him for that treasure, he wouldn't have been injured, and he wouldn't have been unable to protect Qing'er!
He hated it, he really hated it!
But what's the use of hating them now?
Looking at the jade pendant in his hand, despair and reluctance appeared in the old man's eyes. It was his arrogance that ruined his granddaughter!
"Plop plop..."
Having learned his lesson from the old man that day, the Yaksha was clearly on guard; he spat out his viscous fluid without even getting close.
"Gurgle..."
This time, the slime seemed to have a mind of its own, turning into the shape of a snake after landing, and directly coiling around and crawling into the old man's nostrils.
"ah!"
The old man tried to stop it, but the slime was so slippery that he couldn't stop it at all.
"Bang bang bang..."
Seemingly sensing the old man's perilous situation, the jade pendant beside him, which contained his primordial spirit, began to flash incessantly.
"Giggle giggle..."
Soon, the old man's eyes began to roll upwards repeatedly, the whites of his eyes gradually decreased, and strange bone-grinding sounds came from his body. His whole body convulsed as if in spasm.
"No... Absolutely not!"
At this moment, the old man still retained a certain degree of clarity of mind. He knew that if things continued like this, he would be assimilated into a demon.
