Chapter 150-You Lost
The first one to lose his composure was Xie Zhao. He flicked his Jinghong Talisman pen into the air, and three pale golden "Shut-off Talismans" instantly took shape, forming a triangular shape and flying towards Chu Linyuan!
Chu Linyuan did not move, and lightly raised the Immortal-Slaying Spear. A cold light flashed at the tip of the spear, and the three runes were crushed by the sharp spear intent before they got close!
Xie Zhao was unhurried, his brush swiftly sketching a vast "Soul Binding Net" in the air. A web of interwoven golden threads descended upon him, and simultaneously, he formed a seal with his left hand, silently affixing a "Transfer Talisman" to the ground behind Chu Linyuan.
A cold light flashed in Chu Linyuan's eyes, but he didn't dodge or evade, allowing the talisman net to fall.
At the moment when the golden thread was about to touch his body, he shook his left arm violently, and the dark golden dragon pattern lit up. A violent dragon evil force burst out, tearing the talisman net into pieces!
Xie Zhao had been waiting for this moment! He suddenly activated the "Transfer Talisman", and the ground beneath Chu Linyuan's feet instantly twisted. The spatial fluctuations teleported him three meters away - exactly above the "Ice Condensation Talisman" trap that Xie Zhao had set up in advance!
"We got it!" Xie Zhao shouted excitedly.
However, Chu Linyuan's reaction was astonishingly fast. The moment he was teleported, the Immortal-Slaying Spear flew out of his hand, wrapped in a dark golden dragon shadow, and stabbed at Xie Zhao's face like a living creature!
At the same time, he took a step in the air and twisted his body in mid-air with nowhere to gain support, avoiding most of the freezing effects of the ice talisman!
Xie Zhao hastily drew a "golden shield" to block the flying Immortal-killing Spear, but was knocked back several steps by the huge impact force.
Before he could stand firmly, his eyes blurred and Chu Linyuan's figure appeared in front of him like a ghost, with his cold fingertips against his throat.
"You lose." Chu Linyuan announced calmly.
Xie Zhao curled his lips: "Brother, you are cheating! You used the power of the dragon to break my talisman net! Didn't you agree to only use basic moves?"
"You, use the teleportation talisman first." Chu Linyuan retracted his finger, and a barely perceptible smile flashed in his eyes.
Xie Zhao was about to retort when he heard a suppressed gasp. Turning around, he saw Su Tang had slipped back in, covering her mouth with her hand. The camera of the photo stone was fixed on them, her psychic eyes gleaming frighteningly bright.
"Family...family..." Su Tang whispered to the photo stone, "This isn't a sparring match...this is flirting! Senior Brother Bingtuozi's shot was so cool! The way Second Senior Brother got his throat pinched...awsl!"
Xie Zhao: "..."
Chu Linyuan: "..."
Two cold gazes fell on Su Tang simultaneously. The little girl froze and chuckled dryly: "I, I'll go help Senior Sister Luo test the medicine!" Then she ran away.
Xie Zhao rubbed his wrist, which was numb from the shock. Suddenly, an idea occurred to him, and his eyes lit up. "Brother, let's play another round! This time, let's try a combo! I've got a brilliant idea..."
Chu Linyuan looked at his sparkling eyes, was silent for a moment, and nodded imperceptibly.
At noon, a loud noise suddenly came from Luo Hongyi's medicine garden!
"Not good!" Xie Zhao suddenly looked up from studying the talismans.
Rushing to the herb garden, they saw a dark green poisonous fog spreading madly. Wherever it passed, the Star Tear Grass withered at a visible rate. Luo Hongyi stood at the edge of the poisonous fog with a grim expression, the poisonous fog swirling around her fingertips, trying her best to control the situation.
"What's going on?" Xie Zhao asked.
"The spores have mutated." Luo Hongyi gritted her teeth, "They've absorbed too much evil energy and can't be suppressed. We must eliminate it immediately, otherwise the entire herb garden will be destroyed!"
Without saying anything, Xie Zhao drew his Jinghong Talisman Pen, which glowed golden, and was about to rush in.
"Stop." Chu Linyuan grabbed his wrist. "The poisonous fog is too thick."
"It's okay, I have the Heart Talisman to protect me." Xie Zhao patted his chest, "Besides, all of this is Xiao Tangdou's hard work."
Chu Linyuan frowned, and finally let go of her hand: "A quarter of an hour. If you don't come out, I'll go in."
Xie Zhao grinned, and with the Jinghong Talisman Pen, he drew a light golden light shield in front of him and rushed into the poisonous fog.
The scene within the poisonous fog was shocking. The originally small ghost-faced mushroom had grown to half a person's height, the ghost face pattern on the cap twisting and wriggling, constantly spewing dark green spores.
Xie Zhao held his breath and quickly drew out purification runes with his Jinghong Talisman Pen, sealing the mutated mushrooms one by one.
Just as he was dealing with the last one, the ground beneath his feet suddenly cracked, and a clump of pitch-black mycelium suddenly wrapped around his ankle! Xie Zhao was caught off guard and stumbled, and cracks appeared on the protective light shield!
A dark golden dragon shadow tore through the poisonous fog, accurately severing the mycelium! Chu Linyuan appeared beside Xie Zhao, and the Immortal Killing Spear swept across, temporarily forcing back the surrounding poisonous fog.
"Didn't we agree on a quarter of an hour?" Xie Zhao asked, panting.
Chu Linyuan glanced at him coldly: "Passed."
The two stood back to back, Xie Zhao's talismans intertwined with Chu Linyuan's spear shadows, quickly clearing out all the out-of-control poisonous mushrooms. When the last ghost-faced mushroom was purified, the poisonous fog began to slowly dissipate.
Xie Zhao let out a long sigh, then suddenly felt his feet weaken—unknowingly, he had inhaled some of the poisonous mist. Chu Linyuan quickly supported him, a hint of worry flashing in his cold eyes.
"It's okay..." Xie Zhao waved his hand, "It's no big deal... Junior Sister Luo! The antidote!"
Luo Hongyi had already prepared and tossed a bottle of dark green potion over. Chu Linyuan took it, grabbed Xie Zhao's chin, and poured it down without saying anything.
"Ahem...Brother, you..." Xie Zhao was choked to tears, "If you're gentle, you'll die..."
Chu Linyuan looked at his face, which had regained its color, and breathed a sigh of relief, but then returned to his cold demeanor: "You are overestimating your own abilities."
Xie Zhao was about to retort when he suddenly realized they were incredibly close. Chu Linyuan's hand was still on his waist, and the toxic mist stained on his black robe mixed with that unique cold murderous aura, causing him to forget his words for a moment.
"Second Brother! Big Brother!" Su Tang's shout broke the delicate atmosphere, "Are you all right?"
Xie Zhao suddenly woke up and quickly stepped back: "It's okay, it's okay! A mere poisonous mushroom can't faze us, the Guixu Twin Devils!"
