My Ability Pool is Superior

Yang Hu Zi Mountain, halfway up the mountain.

Death Fighters rushed back and forth, passing messages.

They occasionally buried some special items at specific positions.

At first glance, they seemed busy and orderly, but after watching for a while, one could discover that each person’s actions carried a bit of incongruity; their movements weren’t stiff, yet they looked uncoordinated no matter how one saw it.

Upon closer inspection, everyone had a complex expression on their face.

Some were helpless, some were angry…

But no matter what, they could never escape control and could only obediently act according to the Imperial Decree.

Roughly counting the crowd, there were about hundreds of people.

On the altar, the youth with white hair reaching his waist stood with hands behind his back, indifferently watching the busy crowd.

It appeared calm on the surface, but its heart inevitably experienced emotional fluctuation.

This Second Young Master Hu still didn’t understand even now—how had the situation suddenly turned into this?

Such a great situation had actually collapsed overnight?

Hu San, Hu Liu, Hu Jiu, Huang Yuan, and the two Altar Immortals from Liu Family Village, not to mention the numerous Household Guardian Immortals in the villages around the county town.

From high-level officials, mid-level, and low-level, no matter which level, they clearly held absolute advantage.

Not to mention the “Four Immortal Lotus,” which was a table-flipping ultimate weapon for Immortals.

Setting aside Chang Shengtian, who originally had no intention to join the battle, the opponent clearly only had Master Bai Fourteen and a dozen or so insignificant Spirit Messengers.

Exactly where had the problem arisen?

The white-haired youth couldn’t figure it out.

It let out a long breath, but the worry between its brows remained thick and undissipatable.

…

Sun is high in the sky.

Lu Bai carried Aunt Hu San on his shoulder, walking on the path to Yang Hu Zi Mountain.

Master Bai Fourteen had a pile of things to handle, so Lu Bai simply didn’t bring it along, leaving it to continue handling aftermath matters in the county town.

Chang Shengtian quietly followed, and Lu Bai hadn’t planned to call it at first.

“If I may say, wouldn’t flying straight there be faster?”

Glancing at the sun overhead, Chang Shengtian asked curiously in a low voice.

“That would be too sudden.”

Lu Bai chuckled and added, “We should give that Second Young Master Hu a little time to prepare.”

Chang Shengtian was startled and lowered its voice: “You mean…”

Lu Bai waved his hand.

“No need to be so vigilant. I just hope that one can gather up the Reincarnated Demon Persons as much as possible.”

Chang Shengtian was stunned; it didn’t understand, but felt this was impressive.

Having endured all the way, Aunt Hu San finally couldn’t hold back and spoke: “Put me down; I can walk myself.”

Ever since she gained spiritual intelligence, she had never felt this humiliated.

She always felt that this Spirit Messenger under Master Bai Fourteen lacked the most basic respect for Immortals.

…

By the time they reached the foot of the mountain, the sun had already reached overhead.

Few commoners came to Yang Hu Zi Mountain side on ordinary days; the uphill path was overrun by weeds growing wildly on both sides.

Lu Bai carried Aunt Hu San on his shoulder and climbed along the road.

Due to the lack of human activity traces, he occasionally had to push aside obstructing vines, giving a sense of a winding path leading to seclusion.

Chang Shengtian silently followed behind him, feeling uneasy in its heart.

It spent most of its time nestled in Qinggang Forest and didn’t know much about Second Young Master Hu.

It had only heard that this Hu Clan great Immortal acted meticulously and always felt the other wouldn’t be captured so easily.

“Something’s off…”

When they reached about halfway up the mountain, Chang Shengtian’s complexion changed slightly.

It hadn’t actually discovered anything, yet a strong unease surged from the bottom of its heart.

“What’s wrong?”

Lu Bai stopped and looked back at it.

“Wait a moment.”

Chang Shengtian crouched down, picked up a handful of soil, and tasted it with its snake tongue.

Its complexion grew even more grave: “Destroying fortune, severing lifespan, cutting off salary—indeed, Second Young Master Hu has set up tricks on this mountain.”

Lu Bai casually looked around left and right and asked: “What will happen?”

“You know the Four Immortal Lotus is essentially for suppressing Evil Spirits, right?”

Chang Shengtian said seriously: “The current situation is practically the opposite of the Four Immortal Lotus. Although for Evil Spirits with profound cultivation, the amplification provided won’t be too exaggerated.

But the weakening effect on the Incense Sect System is enormous. You can try it now; if nothing unexpected, you probably can’t even ignite the Four Immortal Lotus.”

Chang Shengtian appeared very nervous; it was confident but not arrogant.

If Lu Bai dropped the ball, it didn’t think it could take down that Second Young Master Hu alone.

What surprised it was that Lu Bai didn’t show much surprise upon hearing this.

Instead, he nodded in recognition: “Isn’t that quite normal? With the Four Immortal Lotus in my hands, that Second Young Master Hu wouldn’t clash head-on with me unless his brain had issues, right?”

“Uh…” Chang Shengtian’s words were choked back.

“Relax, it’s not the first time I’ve encountered a situation where the incense point won’t ignite.”

Lu Bai took out the Four Immortal Lotus and shook it twice: “This thing has a different effect for me.”

[Ding!]

[18:42:32]

…

[18:42:25]

[18:42:24]

After all, having seen the howling Yin Wind situation in Liu Family Village, Lu Bai hadn’t counted on dealing with Second Young Master Hu using the Four Immortal Lotus from the start.

Chang Shengtian vigilantly observed the surroundings, its pupils silently elongating.

“Little Bai, in my opinion… how about we retreat first and bring Master Bai Fourteen to discuss long-term plans?”

As it spoke, a sound suddenly came from the path they had passed.

Rustle~

Looking toward the sound, they watched as six or seven people unexpectedly emerged one after another from the bushes—simply unimaginable how so many people had fit inside.

One of the Death Fighters stepped forward, his voice slightly stiff.

“Since you’ve come, don’t leave.”

“Oh?” Lu Bai raised an eyebrow.

This group that emerged from the bushes were clearly all Death Fighters, each with a bitter face.

Aunt Hu San lay on Lu Bai’s shoulder, silent.

She still had confidence in her Second Brother and naturally wouldn’t act on her own.

“Could these be the so-called Reincarnated Demon Persons too?” Chang Shengtian cautiously mobilized its own magic power.

It had only seen Xiao Xueyin and Brother Wang among the Reincarnated Demon Persons.

Although purely in terms of ability, these Reincarnated Demon Persons were far inferior to Immortals, it still didn’t relax its vigilance.

“Second Young Master Hu, right? I know you can hear me. Let’s make a deal.”

Lu Bai raised Aunt Hu San and continued: “Use her to exchange for the Reincarnated Demon Persons in your hands. What do you think?”

The Death Fighters’ expressions were mixed with various emotions.

After all, they could clearly see the “Pure Smile” on top of Lu Bai’s head.

No matter which side it fell to, it wouldn’t end well.

“Refused, huh?”

Lu Bai pondered for two seconds, then nodded: “Alright then.”

He manifested the Great Serpent Phantom and smashed Aunt Hu San into a puddle of muck.

Then he waved his hand, and six White Thorns shot out, precisely taking out the Death Fighters present, leaving only one to pass the message.

He sighed faintly at the sole remaining Death Fighter.

“Looks like I can only ask you in person…”
