Chapter 261: Forcing the Demon General to Shed His Skin Again
Yinghua twisted her waist and sighed pretentiously, "It's just that Elder Fu Cang and I have spent so much time here, but I don't know what the people in Fufeng County are like now?"
Lingxiang frowned when she heard this: "What do you mean?"
"It's just a superficial thing." Yinghuan lifted her hair and raised her eyebrows at the soldier beside her with a seductive look on her face.
"So, you went to such great lengths to make arrangements just to separate us on purpose, and now you're wasting time with us just to delay us." Lingxiang understood immediately.
Yinghuan was stunned when she heard this. She didn't expect this young elder to be so smart. However, she recovered her composure very quickly and shrugged her shoulders indifferently: "If you really think so, then that's it."
If you could really see through my plan so easily, how would I survive?
Perhaps because she was anxious, or perhaps because Yinhuan concealed it well, Lingxiang did not notice Yinhuan's pause. She turned her head and looked at Xinyi beside her, but the latter just shook her head.
Lingxiang immediately understood. It seemed that it would not be so easy to capture Yinghuan today.
But on second thought, after all, Huanhuan was a powerful general under the Demon Lord, and had practiced for a hundred years. Even if she was seriously injured, they could not deal with her.
After all, a lean camel is bigger than a horse, right?
And looking at Yinghuan's calm appearance, it was obvious that she did not take the trap that he had set with so much effort seriously.
She must have a way to escape!
With Senior Brother Chengxin in Fufeng County, there is nothing to worry about. However, Yinghuan has provoked Maidong again and again and hurt him. If she doesn't take revenge, she will not be Lingxiang!
Even if I can't do anything to her, I'll make her shed another layer of skin!
Ling Xiang's eyes flashed with coldness, and she smiled slyly: "The general provoked me to take action earlier. Since you begged me sincerely, I will reluctantly let you see my ability!"
Yinghuan's face was full of disdain: "It's not easy for you to set such a trap with your level of cultivation. With the spiritual power you have left, do you think I'm afraid of you?" As she said that, she picked up the magic blade and rushed towards Lingxiang.
Seeing this, Xinyi Liu Xia hurried forward to stop them, but heard Lingxiang yelling:
"Get out!"
Lingxiang slowly took out a sachet from her bosom. It was the same one she had taken out when she exposed Yinghuan as Chen Sheng.
Yinghuan only felt that the sachet looked familiar, but she couldn't remember when she had seen it. However, she slowed down her pace as she rushed towards Lingxiang - she had suffered losses at the hands of Lingxiang many times, and she was a little afraid when she saw that something was fishy.
But it was too late.
Lingxiang threw the sachet out calmly, then pinched her fingers and made a hand gesture, and the brocade thread on the sachet glowed brightly, and it turned out to be an embroidered curse seal!
The silk thread of the sachet kept unravelling, and after leaving the sachet, it flew in the air like a golden snake, but in the blink of an eye it surrounded the attacking Huanhuan.
Seeing this, Yinghuan smiled contemptuously: "Just relying on this embroidery thread?" But just when she was about to use a knife to cut the brocade thread wrapped around her body, she saw the sachet suddenly explode, bursts of dust and mist flew up and exploded, and then floated away along with the brocade thread.
As the dust and mist spread around Yinghuan, she felt a spicy sensation in her nose, as if it was burning, and she couldn't help but want to sneeze. She also felt uncomfortable all over her body, not much pain, but extremely uncomfortable.
To describe how uncomfortable it is, it feels like being pricked by thousands of needles, or like a scab on the sore, it is extremely itchy.
In a panic, Yinghuan slashed at the silk thread with her knife, but the silk thread was not cut off. Instead, it was wrapped around her magic blade with a silver glow.
The extreme discomfort in her body caused Yinghua to yell: "Little witch! What did you do to me!"
Ling Xiang raised her eyebrows and said proudly: "It is true that my cultivation is low and my spiritual power is limited, but as an elder of a sect, I naturally have some skills. Do you think that I have been walking in the world for many years just relying on the little skills of Fangwai?"
What a joke! She has nine disciples in the Yuanqing Sect, and every one of them has some unique skills. How dare he look down on her? He really doesn't know how to live or die!
"Listen carefully, I am a vengeful person. We have never met before, but you have been looking for trouble. Now that you have offended me, even if I cannot subdue you, you will never get away from me in one piece!"
As soon as Lingxiang finished speaking, Yinghua felt even more itchy. The feeling seemed to go beyond the skin and penetrate deep into the bone marrow, like a thousand lice breaking out of their cocoons, hungry for blood. But no matter how she scratched, it was no use.
Yinghua became more and more crazy. The bloodstains on her body were eye-catching. However, for some reason, the scratched areas felt like they were on fire and were painful. But if she didn't scratch them, she would itch unbearably. The more she scratched, the more painful it became. The more painful it became, the more itchy it became. The more itchy it became, the more she scratched. This cycle repeated...
"Little...little witch! If you fall into my hands one day, I will definitely twist your throat!" Yinghuan said hoarsely.
"Huh! That's really... " Lingxiang's face turned cold: "Let's wait and see!" Then she looked at Liu Xia.
Liu Xia immediately understood what he meant, raised his sword and twisted his fingers, turning the blade into a vine, and was about to tie up Yinghuan.
But at this moment, Yinghuan gritted her teeth and let out a long roar. The bluestone bricks under her feet immediately shattered, and the ground sank. An invisible air burst out, and the surrounding soldiers were pushed to the ground one after another.
As the soldiers fell to the ground, the seal was disrupted, and the surrounding dome that was connected like a chain collapsed immediately.
The magic circle was broken!
The air currents continued to hit the surroundings, and the soldiers could only dodge the flying debris. They had no time to get up, let alone reorganize the magic circle.
"Everyone just protect yourselves, no need to worry about the magic array!" Lingxiang shouted while performing the "Calm and Peaceful Art" in the chaos.
As if Lingxiang's cry was heard, the chaos gradually subsided, but Yinghuan, who was in the middle of the chaos, looked extremely strange.
I saw that Huanhua's whole body was yellow and white, and the skin on her face was half peeled off and half connected. She had a fierce expression and looked extremely scary.
Oh! She really shed another layer of skin!
Lingxiang smiled and said sarcastically: "It is extremely rare for an insect to shed its skin twice in a row, even if it is a very poisonous insect!"
But Yinghua just frowned and didn't answer. It's not that she didn't want to, but she was still in unbearable pain and itchiness, and she had no time to argue.
"Just wait!"
After saying this, Yinghuan turned into a ball of black mist and flew out of the courtyard wall.
Xinyi hurriedly wanted to chase after him, but Lingxiang stopped him.
"Don't chase after a desperate enemy. That's the medicinal powder I carefully prepared, and it can make her suffer. I'm afraid Ding'anju has been besieged now, so we should hurry there."
Powder? What powder?
Banxia naturally admired Lingxiang, but she was also very curious about what kind of medicinal powder could force Yinghuan to such an extent.
It turned out that was what Lingxiang and Xinyi had been tinkering with in Liu's room. They soaked nettles, humulus, goosefoot, and yellow gentian in the juice of three kinds of grasses, fishtail palm, oleander, and calla lily, and then placed in an alchemy furnace and infused with wind techniques to dry and crush them. That was the recipe that Lingxiang had come up with when she was a child, but she didn't expect it to have such a miraculous effect.
Speaking of which, it was the method that Yinghuan gave Lingxiang. Most of these herbs were found by her in southern Xinjiang, and she had never used them. If she had not encountered the witchcraft, she would have almost forgotten that there were these things in her Qiankun bag.
"It's just..." Looking at the ruined house behind her, Lingxiang said apologetically, "It's my fault for destroying the governor's mansion."
At this time, a hearty laugh came from behind: "What are you talking about, little immortal? This is an act of exorcising demons and defending morality. So what if it destroys a few houses?"
I saw a man striding in from the door, it was Liu Shang, the military supervisor.
General Liu was very handsome, but he had a broad frame and a face that showed he was wealthy. He must be a blessed man.
After the two sides exchanged greetings, General Liu was not polite. He just said that saving lives is like putting out a fire, and reminded everyone to be careful. Then he asked the group to pack up and set off, but he did not mention a word about Miss Liu.
Although they were in a hurry along the way, Lingxiang was thinking deeply: The people of the Liu family are really interesting!
