Chapter 173 The Seal of Earth



The anger value of the first bronze statue of Qin Shi Huang is +9 +9 +9...

Looking at the "one" shape formed by the patterns on its head, I thought to myself, it truly lives up to its reputation as the leader, and it's definitely not as easy to deal with as its companions.

Zu An stepped back to Qiao Xueying's side, looking at her now short hair that was no longer than ear length, and couldn't help but laugh: "What if I had accidentally made your head bald just now? That would have been really funny."

"I'll let it slide since you just saved me." Qiao Xueying snorted coldly, flicked her hair lightly, and her originally short hair grew out a bit longer, even automatically braiding into a delicate little braid.

Zuan was dumbfounded and couldn't help but touch her little braids: "Wow, it even has this function. You don't even need to comb your hair every morning."

Qiao Xueying glared at him irritably and pulled her hair back from his hand: "Don't you know that men and women shouldn't touch each other?"

Zu An laughed: "We've already pulled each other and hugged, and besides, we've had even closer relationships before, so what's there to be indifferent about?

Qiao Xueying raised her eyebrows: "You dare bring that up again!"

Zuan laughed and said, "Alright, alright, let's get down to business. Give me another section of hair, and I'll go tie up the rest of that guy." The hair he had before had been torn to pieces by those giant bronze men and was no longer usable.

Qiao Xueying looked troubled: "No, I've overexerted myself today, and I can't grow back anytime soon."

When she encountered those vampire bats before, she cut off a large section of her hair because she disliked the bat blood on it. She had just cut off another large section, and with the constant fighting, the damage was so great that she couldn't recover at all.

"What should we do then?" Zuan pondered, staring at the giant bronze figure charging towards him.

Qiao Xueying's expression changed slightly: "What are you still standing there for? Get out of the way! We'll think of another way."

Zuan shook his head: "Chu Yan probably can't wait that long. Watch me take her down in one move."

Qiao Xueying rolled her eyes: "What kind of time is this to be spouting nonsense? If you can beat it in a second, I'll take your surname from now on..."

Before she could finish speaking, Zu An vanished from his spot in an instant. The next second, he reappeared on the bronze statue's forehead, the dagger in his hand already embedded in the pattern between its eyebrows.

The bronze figure froze as it charged forward, its once gleaming eyes dimmed, and its entire body was thrown forward due to inertia.

Zuan lightly touched the ground with his toes and leaped back ahead of time, sheathing the dagger in his sleeve. With a heavy thud as the bronze figure fell to the ground, dust billowed behind him.

Qiao Xueying blushed. Why did this guy suddenly look kind of handsome?

"What did you just say?" Zuan had already returned to her side.

"N-nothing...it's nothing." Qiao Xueying was secretly relieved that he had acted quickly enough and hadn't heard what she said, otherwise it would have been so embarrassing. "How did you do that?"

Although the opponent's Sunflower Illusion was fast before, at least there was still an afterimage. But just now, it really felt like teleportation.

"Want to know?" Zuan leaned closer to her.

Qiao Xueying leaned back slightly, a little awkwardly: "Yes~"

"Call me 'good brother' and I'll tell you," Zu'an said with a grin. Just now, he had activated his wind ability, which had been upgraded and could now be used about three times a day.

This skill is a divine technique for escaping, dodging, and assassinating. However, his current cultivation level is too low. It is still useful for dealing with brainless creatures like bronze men, but the success rate of using this skill to launch a surprise attack against high-level cultivators is much lower.

Those people have vital energy protecting them, as well as various elemental abilities that they can activate at will. Their defensive and evasive abilities are far superior to these big, dumb guys.

Zuan simply said "Oh," without pressing further. He was more concerned with something else: "Now, the seal on this person should be considered broken, right?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the 12 bronze figures turned into golden specks of light and disappeared. Then the two of them felt a sense of weightlessness, and in the blink of an eye, they were back in the underground palace.

Qiao Xueying then noticed that their hands had involuntarily joined together, and she was so frightened that she quickly shook them off.

Zuan didn't seem to care. Holding hands was to prevent being teleported to different places. But who pulled whom first?

"Huh, I didn't expect you guys could actually break the seal on humans." Mi Li's voice came again, her tone filled with excitement, as if she had finally seen the dawn of freedom.

As soon as she finished speaking, the human sealing array beneath their feet suddenly opened, and the two of them fell to the next level together.

Noticing that there was another almost identical sealing array in front of him, Zuan knew that this must be the Earth Seal.

“The seal of the earth should be more difficult than the seal of man. Should you rest for a while before entering?” Mi Li asked.

Zu An shook his head: "No need." Chu Chuyan was waiting for him to return, so he had to make the most of every minute.

Qiao Xueying had the same thought, and the two of them stood on the Earth Seal together. Neither of them spoke, but their hands still touched each other without prior arrangement.

A familiar feeling of weightlessness washed over them. When the two opened their eyes and looked at the dimly lit surroundings, they couldn't help but wonder, "Why are we still in the underground palace?"

I discovered another unexpected censored phrase: "What if I make your head bald?" These censored phrases are truly ingenious!

That should be enough for today's two updates. My head is really spinning; I'll make up for the missed ones later.
