"Miss Liuli!" Ji Jue exclaimed, "It's dangerous ahead, Miss, you mustn't go!"
Seeing Li Molin and Shi Chan attacking each other fiercely, neither giving an inch, Liuli no longer cared about the danger. She flew forward quickly, wanting only to get there as soon as possible to stop the two.
Ji Jue had no choice but to follow, but in just one moment of hesitation, he had already fallen far behind Liu Li.
"Li Molin! Little monk! Stop hitting him! Please stop!"
Upon hearing Liuli's panicked voice, Li Molin and Shi Chan both stopped and retreated simultaneously, keeping a distance of about ten feet between them. They turned to look at Liuli, who was flying towards them at high speed.
"Liuli, go back now!" Li Molin's expression changed, and he shouted, "Don't come any closer!"
Shi Chan opened his mouth as if to persuade Liuli to go back, but he quickly stopped himself and looked at Liuli with a worried expression.
As Li Molin and Shi Chan drew closer, Liu Li's eyes were fixed solely on them, oblivious to everything else. Suddenly, she felt a burst of golden light before her eyes, and when she came to her senses, she found herself bound by something, suspended in mid-air, unable to move.
"Liuli!"
"Miss Liuli!"
Li Molin and Shi Chan's expressions turned pale at the same time.
A dozen or so feet away in the air, Liuli was bound tightly by a golden dragon about ten feet long. She was struggling violently under the dragon's restraints, muttering in terror, "What... what is that?"
Li Molin immediately flew up to save her, but at the same time, a spike made of Buddhist light spun around and rushed toward Liuli. Compared to the speed of the spike, Li Molin was ultimately a little slower.
With a "whoosh," the spike suddenly overtook Li Molin and flew in front of him. Only then did Li Molin notice the spike. Startled, he quickly increased his speed and hurriedly chased after it.
Shi Chan immediately turned around and looked around, quickly spotting Shi Ning's figure in the air. Shi Ning had shaken off his opponent and was hovering in the air, his hands forming a lotus mudra, his face cold and stern as he stared coldly at Liuli in the distance.
"Senior Brother!" Shi Chan exclaimed in surprise. Almost instinctively, with a thought, the Seven Treasures Kasaya on his body automatically detached from him and then quickly flew towards Liuli's direction.
The Seven-Jeweled Kasaya arrived first, blocking the spike midway. The spike struck the Kasaya and shattered into pieces in an instant.
Thus, Li Molin was able to fly smoothly to Liuli's side. He raised his skull staff high, and a sharp beam of light about a foot long was emitted from the head of the staff, which slashed fiercely at the golden dragon that had trapped Liuli.
Just as the black light from the skull staff was about to strike the golden dragon, a panicked cry rang out: "Junior Brother Shichan, be careful!"
Immediately afterwards, the golden dragon let out a long roar and suddenly flew upwards. As it released Liuli, the golden dragon transformed into a Zen staff and quickly flew towards Shichan.
Upon hearing the panicked voice, Liuli quickly moved a step to the left, past Li Molin, and looked ahead. She saw that Shichan's kasaya was flying back to him, and he was standing facing her with a worried expression, perhaps concerned for her safety.
Upon seeing the scene before her, Liuli's expression changed. She then called out urgently, "Little monk, watch out behind you!"
Just as Liuli was trapped by the golden dragon and the spikes were aimed at her, Shichan was only focused on Liuli's safety and ignored the battle around him. As a result, he also ignored the murderous intent behind him.
At that moment, a demon had just defeated his opponent. He wielded a cleaver and slashed at the neck of the righteous youth, severing most of the young man's neck. Before the man collapsed, a large amount of blood splattered onto the demon's face and chest, further staining his eyes red.
The demon, having lost its opponent, saw Shi Chan's stunned back with its reddened eyes. Without thinking, it raised its cleaver and slashed at Shi Chan.
Even as the cleaver was about to strike Shi Chan, he remained oblivious, staring intently at Liu Li.
Shi Ning's startled cry awakened Shi Chan. As he spoke to remind him, Shi Ning hurriedly recalled his staff in an attempt to save Shi Chan, but it was too late.
Seeing this from afar, Liuli immediately tried to fly over, but Li Molin grabbed her arm. Liuli panicked, struggling and crying out, "Li Molin, let me go! Let me go!"
Seeing that her struggle was futile, Liuli's gaze turned to Shichan. Her face was pale with fear, and she cried out urgently, "Little monk, be careful! Little monk!"
At this moment, Shi Chan had already sensed the sound of the cleaver behind him and the murderous aura that was almost upon him. He hurriedly took a step to the left, but it was too late. Although Shi Chan dodged the vital point of his neck, he was struck on the right shoulder by the foot-long blade energy unleashed by the cleaver. A deep wound that exposed bone appeared on his right shoulder, and a huge amount of blood gushed out, instantly staining half of his body red.
Shi Chan felt the pain and couldn't help but groan.
The demon was already bloodthirsty, and after missing his first attack, he raised his cleaver again and slashed at Shi Chan without any hesitation.
"Little monk, watch out!" Liuli struggled to break free from Li Molin's grip, and in her anxiety, her voice became hoarse as she screamed, "Little monk, watch out behind you!"
At this moment, Shi Chan was still immersed in the excruciating pain in his shoulder and did not move. However, a golden light flashed quickly, and the seven-jeweled kasaya was already draped over his body. At the same time, the kasaya shone with golden light, firmly blocking the attack of the cleaver.
