Chapter 151: Profound Cultivation
Master Bai Fourteen was not the type with deep scheming thoughts to begin with. After realizing that he had actually been tricked by Xiao Xueyin, he immediately blew his beard and glared in anger.
Not having a grasp on dealing with Hu Jiu Niang did not mean he dared not to make a move against these deceivers.
Dense spikes instantly grew on his body, with misty white light swirling around him.
Generally speaking.
Immortals with profound cultivation could still maintain a human appearance even when using magic power.
But if they manifested features of their true form, it meant they were getting serious.
Furniture toppled over, and just the tides of magic power alone turned the entire house into a mess.
He raised his palm fan-like large hand and slapped down toward the direction where Xiao Xueyin was.
A pink barrier suddenly solidified, blocking Master Bai Fourteen’s whistling magic power from the outside.
Whether these humans lived or died was actually irrelevant to Hu Jiu Niang.
She acted to protect them only because she felt doing so could revenge Master Bai Fourteen’s earlier sarcasm toward her.
“Make way.”
Master Bai Fourteen’s voice was low: “Otherwise, I’ll take care of you together.”
Hu Jiu Niang was not frightened at all, still maintaining her delicately smiling appearance.
“Fourteenth Brother, don’t be so hot-tempered.”
Master Bai Fourteen nodded, his expression ferocious.
“Fine, then let’s each rely on our own abilities.”
……
Master Bai Fourteen’s mansion.
“Fourteenth Master is not at the training ground.” Granny Yun gave a definitive conclusion.
During this time, she had tried all sorts of means but still could not obtain a response from Master Bai Fourteen.
Since even this old incense master was at a loss, Lu Bai and the others were even less likely to have any method.
“Lu Xiangtou, you have ability, this old Li admires you.”
Li Xiangtou extended his thumb toward Lu Bai, then added: “You say, what do we do next?”
Lu Bai rubbed his chin, not giving a reply right away.
According to what Li Xiangtou said, those few arsons in the city, though not happening at the same time, were not spaced far apart either.
It seemed there should be a premeditated team committing arson.
But from the time they entered the city until now, they had only seen that one giant weasel evil spirit. It couldn’t be that all the other arsonists were hiding, right?
Just as Lu Bai was pondering this question, a deafening boom suddenly came from the distance.
The violent shockwave followed closely, sweeping through like a sudden high-intensity earthquake, making it hard for people even to stand steady.
The wooden civilian houses along the way collapsed one after another under the impact of the airwave, like dominoes.
Thanks to the firelight around the county town, Lu Bai could clearly see the mushroom cloud rising in the distance.
“Wha… what’s going on? Ground dragon turning over?!”
In such a sudden situation, there was no time to worry about disrespect, so Shi Xiangtou instinctively held onto the shrine to steady his body.
“You all go rescue the civilians.”
Lu Bai threw down these words and, without waiting for the incense masters to respond, strode toward that mushroom cloud.
In a battle of this level, Shi Xiangtou and the others probably wouldn’t even count as cannon fodder, so there was no need for them to follow him.
It must be known that Lu Bai’s current excellent talent allowed him to perfectly wield Master Bai Fourteen’s magic power.
So he was certain that an “explosion” of this degree absolutely could not have been caused by that hedgehog immortal.
At the very least, if he only used Master Bai Fourteen’s magic power, he couldn’t make such a big movement either.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The commotion under the mushroom cloud had not yet stopped.
Rolling thick smoke, firelight, flesh and blood, and corpses.
There were still many civilians who had not escaped the city. Facing such successive major earthquakes, they could only cry out and kneel in prayer.
Though the movement was huge, for the civilians, the danger actually did not come from where the mushroom cloud was rising.
Pulling back the view, at this moment, the city gates in the southeast, northwest, and other directions were wide open, with families dragging their belongings rushing to escape the county town.
If someone looked toward the wilderness outside the city for a couple of glances, they would notice that under the cover of night, countless shadows were drooling as they charged toward the crowd.
During this, shadows occasionally collided with each other, emitting sharp animal cries.
……
The original civilian house had now become a semicircular large pit over a hundred meters in diameter, as if a giant had scooped out a chunk of the ground with a spoon.
“Fourteenth Brother…”
Bang!
“This little sister of yours…”
Bang!
“…is truly doing this for your own good.”
Bang!!!
Every time Hu Jiu Niang said a segment, she would create a terrifying flood of magic power to impact the white light sphere in front of her.
Yes, this light sphere was Master Bai Fourteen.
He had already revealed his true form, but unfortunately, he was still no match for this Hu Jiu Niang.
To avoid being beaten to death alive, Master Bai Fourteen could only curl up his body like this, relying on his racial talent to cling to life.
Hu Jiu Niang restrained her magic power and covered her mouth with a light laugh.
“Fourteenth Brother, come out. This little sister won’t hit you anymore.”
With the attacks stopped, Master Bai Fourteen finally found a moment to catch his breath.
He lifted his head, looking at Hu Jiu Niang with a complex gaze: “I never expected… that you had already gained the cultivation to establish mansion and temple.”
“Didn’t this little sister say it? We are family. Not making a move against you at first was just not wanting to hurt the harmony.”
This white-clothed immortal fairy lightly shook her water sleeves, controlling Xiao Xueyin and the other two to walk to her side: “You have resentment toward these humans, right? If you decide to stand on our side, this little sister will immediately help you get rid of them.”
Her hand pressed on Xiao Xueyin’s head, and when she said “get rid of them,” her tone was as casual as asking what to eat for breakfast.
“You’ve all chatted quite a bit.”
A mild voice suddenly rang out, attracting the attention of everyone present.
Lu Bai walked down along the slope, exuding an aura harmless to humans and animals.
Seeing him, this uninvited guest, the expressions of the people present varied.
The three death fighters naturally went without saying. Just the pure smile on Lu Bai’s head was enough to prove his identity as a death fighter, not to mention that two of them even knew him.
That Hu Jiu Niang, however, was surprised enough to blurt out: “You spirit messenger have such a big guts?”
Daring to come over with such a big commotion—did he not value his life?
Fan Ding feared being singled out and killed by Lu Bai in person, so he did not dare reveal his identity and could only pretend not to know him.
Xiao Xueyin did want to acknowledge him.
But unfortunately, the current situation was too dangerous, and he did not want to implicate Lu Bai, so he hurriedly signaled with his gaze for him to run away quickly.
But what he did not expect was that Lu Bai acted as if he did not understand the hint at all. Not only did he not leave, but he even proactively greeted them.
“You two, long time no see.”
Lu Bai approached with a cheerful smile.
Hearing this, Hu Jiu Niang’s expression softened: “Another reincarnated demon person?”
In this period of time, they had captured over a hundred death fighters.
After all, the ability pools in the death fighters’ first round were only silver level.
From the evil spirits’ perspective, these death fighters posed no real threat apart from having some oddly impractical abilities.
“We’ll catch up later.”
Lu Bai was unaware that he had already been labeled as weak.
He turned his gaze back to Hu Jiu Niang: “You first explain to me, what is this about reincarnated demon persons?”
