Chapter 216: Vast Smoke and Golden Wind
"Elder Fu Cang is really good at speaking. He resolved the hatred of annihilating a family with just a few words. It's really eye-opening!"
As soon as the words fell, Lingxiang was pushed away by Xinyi before she could react. Then there was a dull sound, and a huge axe suddenly appeared on the tree that the two were leaning against, and it was deeply chiseled into the trunk!
When Lingxiang saw it clearly, she immediately became alert. If Xinyi had not reacted quickly, she would have been killed by the axe!
However, when she turned over, Lingxiang recognized who the person was, but she couldn't figure out how he entered the water mirror. If she remembered correctly, the water mirror should have been frozen at that time.
Could it be that...
As soon as they stood still, they hurriedly looked towards the direction where the axe came from. They saw a figure emerge from the darkness, leaning against a tree, looking at them with a sinister smile: "It's been a while since we last met in Zoucheng, and your hypocritical appearance is still disgusting!"
It’s Huiwu!
At this moment, Hui Wu showed no sign of concealing his evil aura. The devilish horns on his forehead were ferocious, his face was sinister, and he was quite arrogant. In his hand, he was tossing an object that looked like a wooden sign.
It's a compass!
It was no wonder Hui Wu was in Yunmengze. It seemed he had been summoned after Yinghua escaped, a trick Bai Wuchang had used before. Lingxiang hadn't expected that the Penglai Jade Branch's magic array wouldn't be able to stop his spells. So, could Bai Wuchang have also reached Yunmengze?
That's a tricky situation. If that's the case, we have to be on guard...
If it were just him and Xinyi, it would be easy to deal with, but now Long Qi and Zhao Wuyang are still in meditation. Although a magic circle was set up just in case, if Bai Wuchang really came to Yunmengze, this kind of formation would be easily broken.
Thinking of this, Lingxiang glanced at Xinyi, who immediately understood, and with a flick of her fingers, she hid her figure and breath, and quietly moved behind Huiwu.
"I don't understand what you're saying. If you're such a righteous person, you should be so upright. What's wrong with that? I'm afraid it's because the person who sees someone nauseous has filth in their heart," Lingxiang said, putting her hands behind her back and quietly practicing a spell. "Ah~ I forgot, you're no longer human, just a fallen demon."
These words were full of sarcasm, and Hui Wu was immediately furious. He was about to attack. He raised his foot but put it down again. He just sneered and said, "The messenger is right. You little girl are just good at talking."
Seeing Hui Wu was unmoved, Ling Xiang was startled at first, but then her expression returned to normal. She tilted her head and laughed, "That's interesting. How did Wu Chang know my abilities? Could he be following me all the time? He's not a child anymore. Even if he can't get married, he can't always be following girls around, right? Isn't he afraid that people will laugh at him for being disrespectful? Ah~ I forgot, he's not human. He's just imitating others with a fan all day long. He can't even draw a tiger, and he doesn't even realize it. How pathetic!"
"Hmph!" Hui Wu snorted coldly, "Elder Fu Cang is truly shameless, daring to criticize the envoy. Do you think the envoy would take you seriously? This is truly ridiculous."
Lingxiang breathed a sigh of relief, realizing Bai Wuchang hadn't entered the water mirror. She glanced into the darkness, and with that glance, a gust of wind suddenly blew up, sending sand flying across the ground. The already eerie woods grew even darker.
Suddenly, a flash of fire exploded in front of them, followed by a dull sound. Soon the darkness faded, but Hui Wu was still safe and sound. Beside him was a monster, which was fighting with Xin Yi with an axe.
Hui Wu sneered and looked at Ling Xiang with a sinister look in his eyes. "Elder Fu Cang may be young, but he's quite good at looking down on others. Do you think I'm blind? Don't think your provocative words will distract me. Knowing that you're good at scheming and mastering magic, why would I come here alone?"
As soon as he finished speaking, faint lights suddenly lit up in the dark forest. Looking closely, they were actually pairs of eyes!
The axe-wielding monster swung its axe with great force, and knocked Xinyi back several feet, trapping him among a group of monsters. At this time, Hui Wu lightly scratched the compass with his fingernails, and the compass emitted a faint light. After the light faded, many strange-looking monsters appeared around him.
Hui Wu raised his eyebrows and raised the corners of his mouth: "Come on..." It sounded like a soft chant, or a sigh, but it revealed a bone-chilling chill.
In an instant, bursts of roars resounded through the forest, deafening the ears. Those pairs of dark blue eyes, like falling stars, flocked to Lingxiang and Xinyi, as well as Long Qi and Zhao Wuyang who were meditating.
Seeing this, Lingxiang was anxious. Although there was a magic circle to protect them, with so many monsters, the magic circle might not be able to hold out for long. The two of them had lost all their five senses now. If the magic circle collapsed, they would be dead!
With a flick of her finger, Lingxiang slashed the two approaching monsters in half. Although Lingxiang was not good at martial arts, she had created a set of skills during her training, called the Lotus Heart Sword Intention.
This Lotus Heart Sword Intent may look inconspicuous, but it gathers spiritual energy between the fingers and releases it in the form of a blade. It is the color of lotus petals and the shape of a thin sword, from deep to shallow, hence the name.
However, Lingxiang is not good at close combat after all, and this technique is just her way of protecting herself by taking the enemy by surprise, so she rarely uses it. Now that Long Qi and Zhao Wuyang are in danger, she has to use it.
Lingxiang twisted her fingers and transformed. Within ten steps, a magic circle suddenly opened. Lotus petals flew everywhere, and the fragrance filled the air. Just as the monsters were confused by this scene, the lotus petals fell and transformed into a graceful figure, like a fairy stepping on a lotus. As she danced with a sword, the monsters in the formation were torn apart before they could even recover.
This was beyond Hui Wu's expectations. Not only him, but even Xinyi was shocked. He had never seen Lingxiang in combat before. He had only seen her refine elixirs or perform strange magic tricks. He had never expected her to possess such skills.
However, the more powerful the moves, the more spiritual energy is consumed. Xinyi knows this very well. Lingxiang is only at the third level of foundation building, so this method may not last long.
Xinyi was extremely anxious, but there were so many monsters that he couldn't escape. He had already used his signature skill, a set of flying shadow sword techniques, slashing rapidly, but no matter how hard he tried, the monsters continued to appear.
Just as Xinyi expected, after a while, the spiritual light of the magic circle under Lingxiang's feet gradually dimmed, and the conjured figures became vague. Some figures had not yet taken shape before they dissipated like flying sand.
Lingxiang was sweating profusely. She had originally planned to use her Lotus Heart Sword Intentions to quickly eliminate the monsters before going on to protect Long Qi, but she hadn't expected so many monsters. She glanced at Hui Wu and saw that the compass in his hand was still emitting a cold, dim light, and monsters were constantly surging out of it.
If the compass is not destroyed, it will be endless. But now he can't move at all. Xinyi thinks he can't escape for the time being, so how can he destroy it?
Adao was sleeping soundly, but when he turned over he suddenly felt a chill down his spine. He opened his eyes immediately, only to see many monsters surrounding him, and was immediately startled.
But after calming down, he realized that these monsters could only ram around him, unable to get close. Ah Dao looked back and saw only Long Qi and Zhao Wuyang, but no sign of Ling Xiang. He immediately understood that this must be a magic circle set by Ling Xiang.
But where did Lingxiang go?
Ah Dao jumped up suddenly and looked around, he saw Ling Xiang surrounded by monsters, he could see that Ling Xiang was struggling, he was extremely anxious, but he couldn't deal with these monsters!
He quickly stood up and ran to Long Qi and Zhao Wuyang, grabbing their collars and patting their faces with his hands, trying to wake them up. But no matter what, they remained unmoved, their eyes still closed, as if they were asleep.
this……
What should I do?
