The Decapitation Demon Lord relentlessly attacked the Queen Mother of the West. The Queen Mother of the West's aged face gradually flushed red amidst the trembling, clearly indicating that the electric current had not been entirely without its effects on her. The old woman's cries also carried a hint of pleading for mercy.
Without further hesitation, Wang Yao pulled out the red thread and used it to lock the light bulb. But to his utter surprise, the red thread was not insulating.
Although the spell was cast in just a short while, Wang Yao was already feeling a tingling sensation all over his body from the electric current coming from the light bulb, and even his beautiful hair stood on end.
"Boy, get down here right now, don't float up there!" Almost the instant Wang Yao threw out the red thread, the Queen Mother of the West sensed it keenly. She suddenly screamed, and the silk thread on Wang Yao's ankle tightened.
The light bulb, struck by Wang Yao's "rambling," paused briefly, but then suddenly jumped up, finally shooting all its current at Wang Yao with a "sizzling" sound.
Although Wang Yao had already withdrawn the red thread, and there was no longer a conductor between him and the light bulb, the current emitted by the light bulb was so domineering that even when it grazed past Wang Yao, it instantly tore a large hole in Wang Yao's spiritual energy armor.
Wang Yao's whole body went numb for a few seconds. Before he could regain his ability to move, the light bulb's current returned.
At this moment, Wang Yao was similar to Xi Wangmu just now, paralyzed by the electric current to the point that he could not move at all. However, Xi Wangmu could still speak, but Wang Yao could not even speak. His spiritual power robe was torn off completely by the electric current in just a few seconds.
Seeing that Wang Yao was already under the control of the electric current, the Queen Mother of the West said nothing more. She kept pulling Wang Yao to the top of her head and throwing him into the air, repeatedly changing his position with the silk threads.
At the same time, she produced another crystalline thread in her hand, just like the one on Wang Yao's foot, and lightly tossed it toward the Decapitation Demon Lord who was attacking Wang Yao. The thread was almost invisible in the air, and even if it reached the light bulb, it would be difficult to detect.
The silk threads in the hands of the Queen Mother of the West seemed endless, and gradually, a faint shadow appeared on the light bulb, wrapped in the silk threads.
"Lord Demon Lord, wake up! Do you remember our previous plan?" Suddenly, a bald, foreign-looking man, speaking broken Mandarin, led a group of his men onto the square. Upon seeing this, Wang Yao, though speechless, couldn't help but widen his eyes in astonishment.
He recognized the bald, foreign god leading the group; it was none other than Robin, Saruman's disciple whom he had dealt with in the underworld. Behind Robin was another person he recognized, who was Eunuch Wei from the underworld. There were also some strange-looking creatures, which were the spirits created by Robin.
The spirits immediately headed straight for the Queen Mother of the West. They were clearly planning to use a diversionary tactic, since the Queen Mother of the West was currently preoccupied with two silk threads in each hand. They probably wanted her to slow down her silk threads so that Robin could use his magic to calm the confused little light bulb down.
The Queen Mother of the West clearly knew that the crucial moment had arrived. Suddenly, her body swelled up, and in the blink of an eye, a tail appeared behind her. Her head also turned into a tiger's head, and her hair was all disheveled. Perhaps due to the lingering effects of the electric current, each hair stood upright like a steel needle.
She let out a sharp shriek at the dozen or so spirits rushing towards him, and Wang Yao felt as if his whole body was being frantically rubbed up and down by extremely rough thorns. His paralysis was instantly interrupted, and even the "Immortal Journey" that he had forgotten to cancel earlier came to an abrupt end at this moment.
Those spirits, who were actually the fierce roars of the Queen Mother of the West, performed even worse.
They were as if blown by a gale, their bodies swaying back and forth, and the male and female pairs separated amidst the shrill roar. Then, with a series of "poof, poof" sounds, these male and female pairs exploded into puffs of flesh that scattered in all directions.
Upon seeing this, not only Robin and Eunuch Wei, but even Wang Yao was stunned. These spirits had caused him and the underworld and the human world a lot of trouble, but unexpectedly they couldn't even withstand a single shriek from the Queen Mother of the West.
Wang Yao was unaware that his current realm was vastly different from what he had been in the Underworld. Although he still couldn't do much against these spirit bodies if he weren't involved in marriage, his physical resistance was far superior to that of these spirit bodies.
As a senior Mahayana practitioner, the Queen Mother of the West's fierce roar at this crucial moment was almost the culmination of her life's work. With her mind locked on, killing a few puppets was not a big deal, as she was using a sledgehammer to crack a nut.
But in the end, all of this was far beyond Robin and Eunuch Wei's expectations. Eunuch Wei was startled and ran away in a flash without saying goodbye to Robin. Robin stood there looking at the light bulb with a hesitant expression on his face.
Wang Yao was tossed around by the Queen Mother of the West like he was on a rollercoaster. Even though he didn't want to let Robin and Eunuch Wei go, he was powerless to stop himself, as the electric current from the Decapitated Demon Lord was relentlessly chasing him.
"Cough cough... You brat, let me teach you a lesson. Don't expect me to be able to outwit you." Perhaps the sharp cry just now had strained her throat, because the Queen Mother of the West's voice was much hoarse.
Upon hearing this, Wang Yao immediately understood the Queen Mother of the West's intention. Although he had been paralyzed by the electric current, the intensity of the current was gradually decreasing as more and more threads were wrapped around the light bulb. On the other hand, he also felt that the attacks from the Decapitation Demon Lord seemed to follow a certain pattern.
After all, the Queen Mother of the West was multitasking, and as she said, she couldn't really outmaneuver Wang Yao. The ups and downs always had a certain rhythm, and the Decapitation Demon Lord seized that rhythm. Although each of his attacks failed to hit Wang Yao, he always managed to brush past him.
