No matter how much they felt sorry for him, it was no use; the intelligent zombie could only eat as much as it could.
The intelligent corpse had only swallowed some black smoke and mist when the fire subsided, and the black smoke and mist also disappeared.
Filled with heartache, the intelligent corpse glared angrily at Ji Xiaoxiao.
"If it weren't for her, if it weren't for this woman, I would have succeeded long ago."
Having used so many talismans, Ji Xiaoxiao, who was being discussed by the corpse, had almost no spiritual power left. She gasped for breath and forced herself to run towards the intoxicated intelligent corpse with her sword.
As the threat drew near, the intelligent zombie suddenly opened its eyes.
The moment she opened her eyes, a gust of wind swept towards Ji Xiaoxiao.
A strong wind blew, causing Ji Xiaoxiao to pause in her tracks.
Given the enemy's strength and our weakness, Ji Xiaoxiao must finish this matter as soon as possible; the longer it drags on, the more disadvantageous it will be for her.
Ji Xiaoxiao's hands flew, and the peach wood sword rose into the air, seemingly possessing its own consciousness, actively binding the intelligent corpse. At this moment, Ji Xiaoxiao took out a ball of black thread from her bosom.
That black thread was no ordinary thing; it was made from peach wood, and its jet-black color came from being soaked in ten-year-old rooster blood soaked in black dog blood. To ordinary people, it was foul-smelling, filthy garbage, but in the eyes of evil demons, it was more terrifying than the blazing sun.
In Ji Xiaoxiao's hands, the black thread was continuously tied to the pillars and stones of the Lu family mansion.
Three or four minutes later, the intelligent corpse snapped the peach wood sword in two.
At this very moment, Ji Xiaoxiao has laid a trap within the Lu residence.
"You'd better use whatever tricks you have up your sleeve, or I don't have time to play with you."
Perhaps because it had absorbed the black smoke and mist, the intelligent corpse was speaking better and better.
Ji Xiaoxiao's face was pale, and she curled the corners of her lips into a smile.
"A net of heaven and earth, binding gods and destroying demons."
As Ji Xiaoxiao finished speaking, the black lines methodically wrapped around the intelligent corpse along a certain route.
The black lines multiplied, rotating among themselves without interfering with each other.
"Even lines that break easily when torn."
The intelligent corpse thought this to itself and reached out to touch the black line.
Crackling and popping, like thunderclaps clashing.
Fortunately, the intelligent zombie was somewhat on guard and quickly dodged when it sensed something was wrong; otherwise... it would have been in grave danger.
The intelligent corpse glared at Ji Xiaoxiao and slammed its fist into the ground.
With a loud bang, a large clump of soil was turned upside down.
The intelligent corpse spread its arms, hugged the large clod of earth, spun around a few times, and then slammed it heavily onto the black line.
Ji Xiaoxiao smiled slightly, "It's no use, the Heavenly Net is not easy to break."
The black line ignored the soil, wrapping itself around it and breaking it into invisible fragments.
Seeing the fate of the soil, the intelligent corpse felt increasingly uneasy.
It has endless possibilities, but right now it's like a human infant. Aside from letting out a few cries to scare the timid little ones, it's utterly powerless against Ji Xiaoxiao.
"Heaven is going to destroy me," the wise corpse thought sadly.
Ji Xiaoxiao took one last look at the intelligent corpse, made a hand gesture, and the formation was activated.
Dark, thick lines wrapped around the intelligent corpse, and Ji Xiaoxiao vaguely heard the sound of flesh being cut.
"Will we really be reduced to ashes this time?"
Ji Xiaoxiao collapsed to the ground, her face covered in fine beads of cold sweat.
Ten minutes later, the array completely drained Ji Xiaoxiao's spiritual energy.
Ji Xiaoxiao suppressed the dizziness and looked up at the place where the intelligent corpse had been.
No, there's nothing left.
That means... it was a success?
After resting for a few minutes and regaining some strength, Ji Xiaoxiao went over to check on the patient herself.
The surrounding area was flat, offering no opportunity to hide, and there was no trace of corpses or yin energy in the air.
Thus, the intelligent zombies were truly destroyed.
Ji Xiaoxiao leaned against the large pillar and slowly slid down.
Exhausted, spiritual energy depleted, and blood and essence depleted, all these discomforts and ailments made Ji Xiaoxiao dizzy, nauseous, and vomiting.
"Ugh." Ji Xiaoxiao swallowed hard, tears welling up in her eyes.
So tired, so very tired, Ji Xiaoxiao slowly closed her eyes.
After an unknown amount of time, a noisy commotion began to fill my ears.
"Momo, wake up, wake up! The people of the capital need you. I beg you, don't sleep anymore."
"Lord Xu, I sent men to search the Lu residence, but they found nothing amiss. It seems Master Xu has successfully eliminated the intelligent corpse. The intelligent corpse was incredibly powerful, and Master Xu must be exhausted, which is why he is unconscious. Perhaps we should send him back to the Zhenguo General's Mansion and wait for Master Xu..."
"Wait, we can wait, the people of the capital can wait!" Xu Yong retorted angrily, "Lord Liao, you abandon the people, your heart is despicable."
Xu Yong gritted his teeth and glared at Liao Kongmin, then turned and shook Ji Xiaoxiao violently.
“Lord Xu, the lives of the common people are precious, but you don’t care about Master Xu’s life or death.”
Xu Yong is truly an exceptionally good official!
Liao Kongmin snatched Ji Xiaoxiao from Xu Yong's hands.
"Lord Xu, please entrust Master Xu to my care!"
Ji Xiaoxiao is the last straw to save the people of the capital from their suffering; how can we hand her over to someone else!
Xu Yong, who was trained, quickly reached out and grabbed Ji Xiaoxiao's arm.
The two grown men fought over her, and Ji Xiaoxiao was almost torn in two.
"Lord Xu, please let go! You'll hurt Master Xu if you keep doing this." Liao Kongmin kept a close eye on Ji Xiaoxiao's expression, and when he saw her frowning, he became anxious.
Xu Yong paused for a moment, then pulled Ji Xiaoxiao even harder.
"As a general of the country, I, Xu Yong, should dedicate myself to the country and its people until my dying breath."
"You are a general of a nation, but Master Xu is just a woman!"
Xu Yong is a great man, but he is the worst father to his own child.
