Cough cough...
The old Taoist coughed twice and said dejectedly, "That old hag is really wicked. I fell for one of her dirty tricks back in the palace."
“Buyu is definitely no match for this old hag, but he has excellent comprehension. Old man, you can decide what to do.” Qian Youxue said, deliberately touching her belly. She knew that Buyu was very interested in incantations, and it would be a good thing for the old man to have another person to inherit his true teachings.
The old Taoist priest glared at Qian Youxue. He had given her a lot of pointers during their sparring session with the old hag, and the boy was indeed quick to learn and had good comprehension. Besides, in this situation, Youxue definitely couldn't go. Her blood was special, and being pregnant made her much weaker than usual; going up would be suicide.
Left with no other choice, he listened to Qian Youxue's words, and after a brief respite, he rejoined the three-person battle despite his injuries.
Once the matters in the palace were settled, Xuanming rushed back to the Prince's Mansion as quickly as possible. It was only upon his return that he learned Haisheng had come to the Qian Mansion. He heard from Uncle Long that Haisheng's father was also in the city, and asked Uncle Long to go and find Haisheng.
However, he and a few others still had to deal with the Wang family members. But before he could finish, Uncle Long and Uncle Cai came looking for him, so he left the task to them and went to the Qian residence alone.
Seeing the situation in the yard, he was glad he had come, otherwise he didn't know what might have happened.
"The Prince has arrived!" Zhu'er spotted the War Prince with sharp eyes.
"Grandmother, Youxue, are you alright?" The War King stepped forward and looked at the two of them with concern.
"It's alright, Mr. Buyu is here!" The old lady shook her head.
The War King walked to Qian Youxue's side, saw that her face was pale, and then looked at Wu Xie: "Thank you for taking care of her."
"Be careful. Old Daoist Youming said that old hag is very wicked. She was injured just now." Wuxie reminded Xuanmingye. His current task was to protect Youxue, his grandmother, and Hua Yujie.
After hearing this, Xuan Mingye had a general idea of what was going on, and he swung his sword to stab the old hag.
Hahaha……
When the Empress Dowager saw the War King appear, she burst into wild laughter and said shamelessly, "That's right, you've all come. Then I'll send you all to the Western Paradise!"
"Such arrogant words, I don't believe it." Xuan Mingye smiled coldly and swung his sword again.
"Watch out!" Bu Yu and the stinky old Taoist priest shouted in unison.
After several rounds, both of them sustained internal injuries. The old hag not only possessed spiritual power exceeding that of a Martial Emperor, but her mastery of spells and formations was also completely unexpected. The fact that such a heaven-defying scourge was still alive was simply terrifying, enough to destroy the world.
Xuan Mingye gained no advantage after several moves and even took a sword wound to the arm.
The sword was poisoned, but thanks to the treatment from Qian Youxue and Bu Yu, he had long since become immune to all poisons, except for very special ones.
"It seems I underestimated Qian Youxue, and this Mr. Buyu." The Empress Dowager could tell from Xuan Mingye's condition that the poison on the sword was ineffective against him, but…
hehe……
She raised the corners of her mouth and unceremoniously cast a spell at Xuan Mingye.
"Be careful!" The old Taoist priest was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat. This old hag was really vicious.
Xuan Mingye quickly dodged the talisman, but his body crashed into the wall. Seeing this, Bu Yu and the old Taoist priest seized the opportunity and simultaneously unleashed two different spells, delivering a fatal blow to the old hag.
The Empress Dowager never expected to be hit by the two men. However, what surprised her even more was that a very dense spiritual energy suddenly attacked from behind.
"Old woman, you should have died long ago!" Long Bo's deep voice rang out. This palm strike used eight-tenths of his spiritual power; if it were an ordinary person, they would have been dead long ago.
However, the Empress Dowager was only seriously injured. Turning her head, she looked at Long Bo not far away, still showing no sign of admitting defeat: "With such a huge disparity in strength, you still dared to launch a sneak attack. How shameless."
"Then let me show you something even more shameless!" Uncle Long didn't believe in such nonsense. Anyone who dared to hurt their prince would only face death.
Hehehe...
Qian Youxue burst into laughter; Long Bo was just too adorable.
"Your Highness, Madam, the scene is too bloody, you'd better not watch!" Uncle Cai followed behind into the courtyard.
"Uncle Cai is here too." Qian Youxue was in a great mood when she saw Uncle Cai. He was Uncle Long's little follower, and Uncle Cai was usually seen wherever Uncle Long was. The two were good drinking buddies.
"It's alright, it's not a bad thing to cleanse your eyes occasionally. I won't be able to sleep peacefully until that old hag is dead." Qian Youxue shook her head, staring intently at the scene before her.
Four against one, it's a bit underhanded, but she likes it.
If Longbo hadn't come, she would have been somewhat confident even against three opponents. But now that Longbo has arrived, she faces a four-on-one situation with no chance of survival. Therefore, she is already considering escaping.
Unfortunately, Uncle Long wouldn't give her the chance. He glared at the old Taoist priest and roared, "You old ghost of the underworld, hurry up and send her to her death!"
"Brother Long is mighty! Make your move! You two step back!" The old Taoist priest was in high spirits upon seeing Uncle Long. It had been so many years since he had seen his good brother, and he never expected that their reunion would be under such circumstances.
Uncle Cai was full of anticipation. He often heard Uncle Long mention this person while drinking. Back in the day, the two of them had joined forces to wipe out many martial arts masters. Now, dealing with the old hag would be a piece of cake.
And that was indeed the case. Even though the old Daoist Youming had lost a lot of his energy to the formation over the years, with the help of Long Bo, one used incantation and the other used spiritual power, they defeated the old hag in less than a round.
The Empress Dowager didn't even see who made the first move. She stared at the old Taoist priest with her eyes wide open in death, and was finally kicked off the ground by Bu Yu. Her bones were completely shattered, and she was finally dead.
