Ch 104: Big Yellow Grows Bigger
Yan Xi, Nangong Junyi, and Wen Tianjun’s battlefield.
Nangong Jun wielded dual swords, Wen Tianjun carried a round hammer, and they tangled with Yan Xi’s blood-formed Blood-Colored Long Scythe.
Nangong Junyi shouldered the main offensive, his dual swords spinning rapidly, his sword moves sharp and varied, but Yan Xi easily parried them with his blood scythe.
Wen Tianjun wielding the round hammer appeared somewhat clumsy, only occasionally swinging it at Yan Xi, who easily dodged.
Wen Tianjun considered when to launch a surprise attack for a fatal blow.
The three continued their entanglement, Yan Xi, with a pair of blood wings on his back, moved with ghost-like speed, always evading at critical moments.
Nangong Junyi and Wen Tianjun, even working together, could hardly inflict effective damage.
……
On the other side, Deng Ning, also an Earth Level Daoist, ran into a large building and hid.
“What is Mo Qianchou, that crazy woman, up to? Causing such a commotion, she’s not afraid of death! I am!”
“You bunch of idiots, just brawl it out outside!”
Deng Ning did not intend to intervene.
Because Deng Ning had secretly contacted and colluded with the Heavenly Yin Society.
Deng Ning was completely unaware of the Poison Cicada Squad’s operation this time.
He was forced to improvise and deal with it.
However, Deng Ning’s injuries from Zhang Buran’s punch had not fully healed.
Even uninjured, the cowardly Deng Ning would never fight for the Daoist Alliance.
Deng Ning enjoyed the benefits of being an Earth Level Daoist within the Daoist Alliance while simultaneously contacting the Heavenly Yin Society, using the Daoist Alliance’s intelligence to gain more profit…
Deng Ning wanted to have his cake and eat it too, securing greater profits for himself.
“Let you fight it out until you’re all dead, then I’ll sneak out! Maybe I can even pick up some loot…”
……
With a “whoosh,” a Teleportation Talisman sent Qi Pei and Yan Ningxue to a rooftop.
Yan Ningxue was still shaken.
Qi Pei, however, manipulated several Talismans to float around him, forming a semicircular barrier to conceal their auras.
Qi Pei finally breathed a sigh of relief: “Whew! We’ve managed to save our lives, but I don’t have many Talismans left. Let’s just stay here and not go out, the Daoist Alliance should send someone to handle this.”
“What about Su Anlan? The girl who was with me just now? Didn’t you teleport her with us?”
“Sigh, the Teleportation Talisman was irreversible once activated, and a cicada suddenly landed on my hand. I let go of your friend, so she didn’t teleport with us… Hey, where are you going!”
“I’m going to save Su Anlan! She’s a 16-year-old girl… alone, she’s definitely in grave danger!”
Yan Ningxue got up to find Su Anlan, her voice tinged with a hint of crying.
Yan Ningxue and Su Anlan were best friends at the Daoist Arts Academy.
In this situation, if Su Anlan were left alone, it was… Yan Ningxue didn’t dare to think about it.
“Don’t be stupid, we’ve barely escaped, and you want to go back and die?” Qi Pei held Yan Ningxue back, saying:
“You saw how terrifying that swarm of cicadas is, almost endless, we can’t win! If I had enough Talismans, maybe I could fight… now, maybe your friend is already…”
“Impossible! Anlan couldn’t possibly be dead!”
Yan Ningxue yelled hysterically, trying to tear apart the semicircular barrier of Talismans.
Yan Ningxue refused to believe, or dared not think, that Su Anlan was dead…
Anlan, you must stay alive!
You’ll be alright!
Yan Ningxue thought to herself, deceiving herself, already in tears.
“Hey! Don’t touch my barrier! If it breaks, I won’t have enough Talismans to create another one!”
Qi Pei pulled Yan Ningxue back, holding her down, and said loudly:
“Don’t be foolish, what good will it do to go out? With your cultivation and Daoist Skill, you’ll just die!”
“It’s better to trust the Daoist Alliance to send someone!”
“If it weren’t for me, you would have already died! Don’t you value your life at all?”
“Please, Miss, your life comes first! Everything is meaningless without life, why would you stupidly rush out to die?”
“I’m not afraid! I’m not as cowardly as you! Not as cowardly and afraid of death!” Yan Ningxue cried, somewhat losing her reason.
“Cowardly? Afraid of death? Why would I save you if I was afraid of death? I’m not a Professional Daoist of the Daoist Alliance, I’m a Freelance Daoist. I could have just run away!” Qi Pei was a little angry, arguing:
“I saved you, and you’re still complaining, such ingratitude!”
“Go, go, go! Get out! Without my barrier to conceal our auras, those Poison Cicadas will suck you dry first, and don’t expect me to bury you then!”
Qi Pei directly waved his hand, opening a gap in the Talisman-constructed barrier.
“Fine, I’ll go!”
Yan Ningxue’s stubborn temper flared up, and she was about to run out.
As Yan Ningxue turned her head, she suddenly felt an irresistible energy surge into her mind…
Instantly fainting.
“You actually went?”
Qi Pei thought that his argument would make Yan Ningxue give up on going out to die.
But he didn’t expect this little girl to be so stubborn.
Qi Pei could only place a Sleep Talisman on the back of Yan Ningxue’s head, causing her to fall asleep.
“That stubborn temper, just like her sister!”
“Sigh, if it weren’t for saving you, little girl, I wouldn’t have gotten involved in this mess…”
Then, Qi Pei looked up at the giant toad in the sky constantly emanating black mist.
“This Toad Gu Insect is the center of the barrier, if it’s destroyed, the entire Black Mist Barrier should automatically dissipate.”
“But is this too risky? Let me think for a moment…”
……
“Big Yellow, are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere?”
“Big Yellow, why did you suddenly get so big, able to swallow so many insects?”
“Big Yellow, you’re amazing!”
“Woof woof woof!”
Su Anlan happily stroked Big Yellow’s soft fur, then silently touched its belly.
After repeatedly confirming that Big Yellow was not uncomfortable, Su Anlan felt relieved.
The giant dog, “Big Yellow,” was a canine Shikigami summoned by Su Anlan. Its original size was about that of a horse, but now it was almost as big as an elephant.
And its eyes had become sharper, appearing more majestic.
Although Su Anlan didn’t know why Big Yellow had suddenly changed, she only knew that it had become stronger.
Big Yellow simply opened its mouth and swallowed hundreds or thousands of the Poison Cicadas that had previously been beyond their control.
And Big Yellow’s stomach didn’t bulge at all, the Poison Cicadas were like being sucked into a black hole.
It was truly Swallowing the Heavens and Earth.
“Big Yellow, why did you suddenly become so big?” Su Anlan wondered, even her ahoge forming a question mark shape.
“That’s because that dog is the Dog of the Xu from the Twelve Zodiac Shikigami, possessing the ability to Swallow Mountains and Rivers.”
A woman’s cold voice came.
Su Anlan was startled and looked back.
Above, Mo Qianchou stood on a platform of Flying Cicadas, with a hint of mockery in her eyes, looking down at Su Anlan.
Big Yellow also keenly sensed a threat and barked incessantly at Mo Qianchou above.
