Chapter 74 Do you want to follow me?
As soon as Li Zhi left, Taoist Xuanqing led his men back to the foot of the mountain. Everyone was injured to varying degrees and looked quite miserable.
Perhaps the drought demon moved away from here, the dark clouds in the sky gradually dissipated, revealing the obscured sun, and the thunder also disappeared.
The sky brightened again.
But if you look closely, you will see that the dark clouds are not dispersing in all directions, but are concentrating and moving in a certain direction.
Taoist Xuanqing was preoccupied with the fleeing Hanba, so he naturally didn't notice this change. Seeing that only Master Jiang Tianshi was left here, he asked, "Where's Miss Li?"
He paused, then continued, "By the way, did you see that drought demon? It just flew out of the mountain and should be heading towards the foot of the mountain."
Jiang Tianshi came back to his senses and thought about what Li Zhi had told him. He nodded and replied, "I saw it. Master Li went to chase the drought demon and asked me to stay and inform you."
"What?" Taoist Xuanqing was slightly stunned when he heard the words, then he reacted and frowned, "Nonsense, how could you let her go after him alone? You know she has difficulty walking."
"That drought demon is very powerful and dangerous. Even with so many of us, we are no match for it. If you let her chase it alone, won't that put her in danger?"
Jiang Tianshi's eyes flickered, and he spread his hands, saying helplessly, "I couldn't stop her either. Before I could react, she said something and disappeared from my sight."
"Which direction did they go?" asked Taoist Xuanqing.
Jiang Tianshi casually pointed in a direction and said, "That way."
Taoist Xuanqing's eyes narrowed. Although none of them could defeat the drought demon, they couldn't leave Li Zhi alone. He turned to look at the people behind him and gave orders, "Some of you will follow me to find someone, and the rest will stay here in case the drought demon suddenly returns. In short, please use the sound transmission talisman to contact us at any time if there is any situation."
Everyone responded and immediately took action according to what he said.
Master Jiang Tianshi did not follow them. He had to stay here and wait for Li Zhi to come back. He didn't know what the situation was like over there.
…
This way.
Li Zhi took the drought demon to another unknown mountain several kilometers away from Longtan Mountain.
She put down the drought demon that she was controlling with her spiritual power, snapped her fingers to remove the golden threads wrapped around it, and then set up a barrier around it to prevent the thunder tribulation from making too loud a noise and attracting attention.
When the drought demon found that he could move again, his subconscious reaction was to stand up and run away. However, he didn't run far before he was bounced back by a layer of transparent barrier.
It crawled up from the ground again, turned around and looked at Li Zhi, tilted its head, as if realizing that she had no ill will towards it.
Although it has awakened its intelligence, it has not yet transcended the tribulation and become an adult, so it cannot speak. It can only make gestures to ask Li Zhi what she should do in order to let it go.
Although Li Zhi couldn't understand his gestures, she could guess what he meant. She looked up at the dark clouds looming over her head and said slowly, "I won't hurt you. I'm here to help you overcome the thunder tribulation."
Hanba was very surprised when he heard this, and made gestures again, asking her why she wanted to help him.
Li Zhi's beautiful eyebrows raised slightly, "Just think of it as me being helpful."
She paused and continued, "It doesn't matter if you don't believe it. You can't run away anyway. Just wait here obediently. It's coming soon."
After hearing what she said, Hanba gave up the idea of escaping and simply sat down on the ground, waiting for the thunder tribulation to come.
Within a few minutes, the area was completely dark, and the thunder became louder and louder, accompanied by flashes of lightning.
Hanba's back tightened, he looked up at the sky, and his hands on his legs gradually tightened, feeling that the thunder tribulation was coming.
The next second, there was a loud bang, and a purple lightning bolt pierced through the thick clouds and headed straight for the drought demon.
The purple lightning ignored the barrier set up by Li Zhi and struck the drought demon directly with accuracy.
Before Hanba could catch his breath, the next bolt of lightning struck again, and the number of lightning bolts increased with each passing time.
Soon, Hanba could no longer hold on and fell to the ground. His body was charred black, and only the slight movement of his fingers proved that he was still alive.
There is only one last bolt of thunder left, but its power is greater than all the previous ones combined. Obviously, it cannot withstand this last one in its current condition.
Hanba didn't have the strength to look up at Li Zhi, so he could only use the last bit of strength in his body to raise a finger and send a signal for help to Li Zhi.
Li Zhi noticed its movements and soothed it, "Don't worry, I'll take care of the last one."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the last bolt of lightning as thick as an arm strike down.
Li Zhi's eyes narrowed, and he raised his hand to cast a golden talisman to protect Hanba's entire body.
In the blink of an eye, the last bolt of lightning struck Hanba, but it was miraculously absorbed by the golden talisman on its body.
The dark clouds did not disperse, but instead spread all over the sky. Accompanied by rumbling thunder, heavy rain began to fall.
Anshi, which had not seen rain for half a year, finally received the nourishment of rain after a long wait.
Because of the barrier, the rain was isolated outside and did not get Li Zhi wet at all.
At the same time, the drought demon that was charred on the ground was also changing.
I saw the black color on its body fade away, just like a snake shedding its entire skin from head to tail, revealing the brand new skin underneath.
Her waist-length hair spread out like ink, she had a plump figure, graceful curves, and skin as white as cream.
The facial features gradually took shape on her face.
The face was cool yet gorgeous, with a small and tall nose, and the upturned fox eyes were filled with aggression.
There is a faint red light flowing in the depths of the pupils, like the luster of a ruby, which is very beautiful.
She stood up from the ground, looked down at her body, and finally looked up at Li Zhi in front of her. She opened her mouth as if she wanted to speak, but she couldn't say a word and could only make "ah ah" sounds.
She is now like a baby who is just beginning to learn to speak. She needs someone to teach her and talk to her so that she can gradually adapt to how to speak.
Li Zhi picked up the blanket draped over her legs, raised her hand and waved it, and the blanket fell on her naked body.
It automatically rolled up and wrapped around her key parts, just like she was wearing a tube top and hip skirt.
Li Zhi looked at her, his eyes moving slightly. It would be great if he could use her for his own purposes. She would be an invincible fighter.
"Do you want to follow me?"
Hanba nodded vigorously.
Ever since Li Zhi helped her block the last thunderbolt, she had already recognized her as her master in her heart and was determined to follow her until death.
"Okay." Li Zhi paused, then suddenly thought of something and said, "I'll give you a name."
Hanba was a quick learner. He opened his mouth again and said slowly, not very skillfully, "Name?"
