Chapter 221: Vast Smoke and Golden Wind
"Elder Fu Cang is really good at talking. He resolved the hatred of exterminating a whole family with just a few words. It's really eye-opening!"
As soon as he finished speaking, before Lingxiang could react, she was pushed away by Xinyi. Then there was a dull sound, and a huge axe suddenly appeared on the tree that the two were leaning against, and it was deeply chiseled into the trunk!
When Lingxiang saw it clearly, she immediately became alert. If Xinyi had not reacted quickly just now, she would have been killed by the axe!
However, as she turned over, Lingxiang recognized who the person was, but she couldn't figure out how he entered the water mirror. If she remembered correctly, the water mirror should have been frozen at that time.
Could it be that……
As soon as they stood still, the two of them looked towards where the axe came from, only to see a figure emerge from the darkness, leaning against a tree, looking at them with a grim smile: "It's been a while since we last met in Zoucheng, and your hypocritical appearance is still disgusting!"
It’s Huiwu!
At this moment, Hui Wu showed no signs of evil, with ferocious horns on his forehead, a sinister look, and an arrogant expression. In his hand, he was throwing an object that looked like a wooden sign.
It's a compass!
No wonder Hui Wu was in Yunmengze. It must be that he was summoned after Yinghua escaped. This was a trick that Bai Wuchang had used before. However, Lingxiang did not expect that the magic array of Penglai Jade Branch could not block his magic. In this case, could it be that Bai Wuchang had also arrived in Yunmengze?
That's a tricky thing. If that's the case, we have to be on guard...
It would be easy if it was just him and Xinyi, but now Long Qi and Zhao Wuyang are still in meditation. Although a magic array was set up just in case, if Bai Wuchang really came to Yunmengze, this kind of array would be easily broken.
Thinking of this, Lingxiang glanced at Xinyi, who immediately understood, and with a flick of her fingers, she hid her figure and breath, and quietly went behind Huiwu.
"I don't understand what you mean. If you are a righteous person, you should be upright. What's wrong with that? I'm afraid that the heart of a person who looks disgusting is filthy," Lingxiang said, putting her hands behind her back and quietly pinching the magic formula, "Ah~ I forgot that you are no longer a human, but a fallen demon."
These words were full of sarcasm. Hui Wu was furious when he heard them. He almost wanted to fight. He just raised his foot but put it down again. He just sneered and said, "The messenger is right. You little girl are just good at talking."
Seeing Hui Wu was unmoved, Ling Xiang was startled at first, but then her expression returned to normal. She tilted her head and laughed, "This is interesting. How did Wu Chang know my ability? Could he follow me all the time? He is already an adult. Even if he cannot marry, he cannot always follow behind girls and pry into their minds, right? Isn't he afraid that people will laugh at him for being disrespectful? Ah~ I forgot, he is not a human. He holds a fan all day long, but he is just imitating others. He can't even draw a tiger, but he doesn't even know it. How pathetic!"
"Humph!" Hui Wu snorted coldly, "Elder Fu Cang is really shameless. He dares to criticize the envoy. Do you think the envoy is worthy of taking it to heart? It's really ridiculous."
Hearing this, Lingxiang breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that Bai Wuchang had not entered the water mirror. She glanced into the darkness, and with this glance, the wind suddenly blew up around her, sand flew on the ground, and the already gloomy forest became even darker.
Suddenly, there was a flash of fire in front of them, followed by a dull sound. Soon the darkness faded away, but Hui Wu was still safe and motionless. Beside him was a monster, which was now fighting with Xin Yi with an axe.
Hui Wu sneered and looked at Ling Xiang with sinister eyes: "Elder Fu Cang is young, but he is very good at looking down on others. Do you think I am blind? Don't think that your angry words will distract me. Since I know that you are good at scheming and proficient in magic, why would I come here alone?"
As soon as he finished speaking, there were bursts of faint light in the dark forest. Looking closely, they were actually pairs of eyes!
The axe monster swung vigorously and knocked Xinyi back a few feet, trapping him in a crowd of monsters. At this time, Hui Wu scratched the compass with his fingernails, and the compass glowed with a faint light. After the faint light faded, many strange monsters appeared around him. Hui Wu raised his eyebrows and raised the corners of his mouth: "Come on..." It sounded like a soft chant, or a sigh, but it revealed a chill that penetrated his bones.
In an instant, bursts of roars resounded through the forest, deafening the ears. Those pairs of blue eyes, like falling stars, flocked towards Lingxiang and Xinyi, as well as Long Qi and Zhao Wuyang who were meditating.
Seeing this, Lingxiang became anxious. Although they were protected by a magic circle, with so many monsters, the magic circle might not be able to hold out for long. Both of them had lost all their five senses now. If the magic circle collapsed, they would be dead!
With a flick of her finger, Lingxiang cut the two monsters in half. Although Lingxiang was not good at martial arts, she created a set of skills during her training, called Lotus Heart Sword Intentions.
This Lotus Heart Sword Intention may look inconspicuous, but it gathers spiritual energy between the fingers and releases it in the form of a blade. It is lotus petal in color and shaped like a thin sword, from dark to light, hence the name.
However, Lingxiang is not good at close combat after all, and this technique is just a means for her to protect herself by taking advantage of unexpected situations, so she rarely uses it. Now that Long Qi and Zhao Wuyang are in danger, she has to hold back.
Lingxiang twisted her fingers and transformed them. Within ten steps, a magic circle suddenly opened up, with lotus petals flying and fragrance everywhere. Just as the monsters were confused by this scene, the place where the lotus petals fell unexpectedly transformed into a graceful figure, as if a fairy was stepping on a lotus, dancing with a sword in hand. Before the monsters in the circle could come to their senses, their bodies and heads were separated.
This was beyond Hui Wu's expectation. Not to mention him, even Xin Yi was shocked. He had never seen Ling Xiang use martial arts before. She was only making medicine or performing strange tricks. He didn't expect that she had such skills.
However, the more powerful the moves, the more spiritual energy is consumed. Xinyi knows this very well. Lingxiang is only at the third level of foundation building, so this method may not be able to be maintained for long.
Xinyi was very anxious, but there were so many monsters that he couldn't get away. He had already used his best skills, a set of flying shadow swordsmanship, to chop quickly, but no matter how hard he tried, the monsters still kept coming out.
Just as Xinyi expected, after a while, the light of the magic circle under Lingxiang's feet gradually dimmed, and the illusory figures became vague. Some figures had not yet taken shape before they dissipated like flying sand.
Lingxiang was sweating profusely. She had intended to use the Lotus Heart Sword Intent to quickly clear out the monsters and then protect Long Qi, but she had not expected there to be so many monsters. She glanced at Hui Wu and saw that the compass in his hand was still emitting a cold light, and monsters were constantly surging out of the cold light.
If the compass is not destroyed, it will be endless. But now he can't move at all. Xinyi thinks he can't get away for the time being, so how can he destroy it?
Adao was sleeping soundly, but when he turned over he suddenly felt creepy. He opened his eyes immediately, but was frightened to see many monsters surrounding him.
But after calming down, he found that these monsters could only keep hitting around him, but could not get close to him. Ah Dao looked back and saw only Long Qi and Zhao Wuyang, but no sign of Ling Xiang. He immediately understood that this must be a magic circle set by Ling Xiang.
But where did Lingxiang go?
Ah Dao jumped up and looked around, and saw Lingxiang surrounded by monsters. He could see that Lingxiang was struggling and became extremely anxious. However, he couldn't deal with these monsters!
He quickly stood up and ran to Long Qi and Zhao Wuyang, grabbed their collars, stretched out his hands and slapped their faces, trying to wake them up. But no matter what, the two were not moved at all, and still kept their eyes closed, as if they were asleep.
This……
This is how to do!
