Chapter 267: Summoning the White Fox in a Moment of Danger
"If it weren't for the last resort, I would never have called you into this mess." Lingxiang looked apologetic.
"So, isn't it natural for you to call me?" Xiaobai looked at Lingxiang and didn't find any serious injuries. He breathed a sigh of relief. Perhaps she hadn't caught her breath for a while, so she was so weak.
"Don't fight with him. Just rescue the person and don't fight to the end." Lingxiang felt a little worried.
Xiaobai smiled slightly when he heard this, and told Lingxiang not to worry. Then he turned around and disappeared. Looking at the place where Xiaobai disappeared, Lingxiang suddenly blamed herself.
I really shouldn't have dragged Xiaobai into this. Although I don't know Xiaobai's true level of cultivation, I imagine he's quite accomplished. However, he's limited by his own cultivation, and his abilities are limited. Furthermore, he's a vengeful demon, and his opponent is Bai Wuchang. If anything goes wrong, he'll be doomed.
Now, after much difficulty, I've finally found a way to free Xiaobai. Even if the chances are slim, it's better than a disastrous ending, right? If something unexpected happens during this time, all my efforts will be wasted.
…
Bai Wuchang approached slowly, each step seemingly in sync with Chi Yanzi's heartbeat, slow and unhurried. Facing impending death, Chi Yanzi felt no panic at all, simply waiting calmly, as if greeting a long-lost friend.
Time passes leisurely, just like a crow in the woods, spreading its wings leisurely, or like a cat in the courtyard, strolling leisurely in the garden.
This moment was so peaceful that even Bai Wuchang's ferocious face seemed much softer.
Finally, he walked in front of Chi Yanzi.
Looking at Bai Wuchang who was looking down at him, the sunlight shining through made Chi Yanzi squint his eyes. He seemed to see Fairy Tumi walking towards him from behind the light, extending her hand towards him, just like when they were little, as if to take him to the next unknown residence.
As darkness fell, Chi Yanzi smiled silently, with an expression of great satisfaction on his face. Then he let out a long sigh and closed his eyes.
Bai Wuchang's golden eyes were motionless, his face was wooden and ferocious. He looked at Chi Yanzi who didn't struggle, slowly raised his extremely sharp claws, and then slammed them down on Chi Yanzi without hesitation.
But just when the wind from his palm was about to blow up Chi Yanzi's hair and beard, the arm that could not be covered by the tattered white sleeves was firmly held down by someone.
The person who came was also dressed in white.
"This man is at least a friend of mine. How about giving me some respect and letting him go?"
It’s Xiaobai.
Both of them were wearing white clothes, but Xiaobai had a casual and open-minded demeanor. A strand of black hair on his forehead moved in the wind, which made him look even more graceful.
Bai Wuchang frowned and was shocked: this man could appear silently without him noticing, and he easily blocked his palm.
This person's cultivation is not inferior to mine!
Bai Wuchang narrowed his eyes, and his golden pupils looked particularly fierce, like a wild beast that smelled danger.
"You don't look like an ordinary person, but rather have some demonic aura. However, I have never heard of such a person in the demon world. Forgive my humble opinion, but may I ask who you are?"
"You are the military advisor of the demon world, high and mighty. I am but a resentful soul, a fallen demon. Naturally, I am not worthy of the envoy's attention. Moreover, I am just a nobody. The military advisor does not need to take me seriously."
Bai Wuchang's eyes narrowed even tighter, like a dozing cat. "Since you and I are both from the demon clan, we are both subjects of the Demon Lord. Why are you stopping me?"
Xiaobai's brows relaxed, and he looked like a fox. "As you said just now, this person is a friend of mine. How can I sit idly by and watch my friend in trouble?"
The two secretly competed with each other, but found that they were evenly matched.
"So, Your Excellency is determined to intervene in this matter?"
Bai Wuchang glanced at Xiaobai, but Xiaobai smiled.
"That's right."
Bai Wuchang snorted softly, "If that's the case, then I won't be polite."
As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Wuchang grabbed Xiaobai's wrist, rolled over, and kicked Xiaobai with his leg.
Seeing this, Xiaobai raised his elbow to block the blow, grabbed Bai Wuchang's ankle, and rolled him away.
"Old man, I'll be back soon. You better be brave and don't die here!"
Two white figures rose into the air. Under the azure sky, one was like a white cloud, the other like a white flower. They fought back and forth with complicated moves, and the fight was very lively.
Neither of them used any magic, but only fought with their physical skills. In a short while, they had fought for dozens of rounds, but it was difficult to tell who was better.
"It seems that the military advisor is not only extremely intelligent, but also extremely skilled in martial arts!"
Xiaobai took Bai Wuchang's palm strike, then used the force to retreat. He pretended to be relaxed, but he was actually a little nervous.
I have forgotten how long it has been since I fell into the body of a demon. Although I have not neglected my practice on weekdays, this is the first time I have experienced such a tug of war.
This Bai Wuchang was very agile. Even with his bare hands, his fists were filled with demonic energy, which could break all of his moves. Even if he pretended to be relaxed, he had to admit that he was now at a disadvantage.
I originally wanted to lure him away from here and then find a chance to escape, but the other party seemed to have seen through my thoughts and tried to obstruct me in every way.
Bai Wuchang was not as calm as he looked.
His cultivation was considered high in the demon world. Even though he had only used a third of his strength, Xiaobai was able to withstand all of his attacks. Furthermore, from his perspective, Xiaobai hadn't used his full strength either.
When did such a person appear in the demon clan?
Head-on confrontation has never been Bai Wuchang's style. Since this person's cultivation is so high, it would be better to persuade him to work for him.
Thinking of this, Bai Wuchang transformed himself, and the half-broken face returned to normal.
"Since you have such skills, why do you have to stay in the human world? Wouldn't that make you buried? In my opinion, it would be better for you to go with me to meet the Demon Lord. You will definitely be put to important positions." Bai Wuchang waved his folding fan and said with a smile.
Xiaobai laughed when he heard this. "Why? Military Advisor, are you giving way to me?" He then pulled out a fan from his sleeve, but didn't open it. "It's not that I can't, but I'm afraid the Military Advisor's pretentiousness will spread to me." He then made a flower on the fan and said, "Scholars and poets often use fans, just to show off their elegance, but I've never seen anyone fanning themselves on a cold day. Could it be that all beings in the demon world are so out of place?"
"Your Excellency's implication is that you are unwilling?"
"I'm afraid I can't obey."
"Since that's the case, then I don't need to be humble."
As Bai Wuchang spoke, demonic energy suddenly surged around him and his figure changed drastically. In just a moment, he no longer resembled a human being.
He had white eyebrows flying across his face, eyes as yellow as gold, ears like a tiger, a green face with fangs, a broad back and a long waist, tiger claws and a leopard tail, and his true form of a demon was revealed.
"I tried to persuade you with kind words, but you didn't appreciate my kindness. So, to avoid future trouble, I have no choice but to kill you!"
Xiaobai was shocked when he saw this. Just now, the two of them were barely evenly matched. Now that this guy had revealed his true form, he thought he would not hold back. However, he could not exert his full strength. He was afraid that...
I'm afraid I can't defeat him!
