The malicious gaze of the Red-Clad Ghost of the Azure Spirit sent shivers down Ren Ting Ting's spine.
Instinctively, she wanted to escape, but under the intimidation of Wang Wang Forget's aura, she found it difficult to even move a finger.
"Little girl, have you ever seen fireworks bloom?"
"Like... this!"
He pointed towards the maid beside Ren Ting Ting. The next second, the maid exploded without warning, scattering into a spray of flesh and blood!
Blood and viscera splattered everywhere!
Ren Ting Ting trembled all over with fear.
Wang Wang Forget was pleased with her reaction. He slowly pointed his finger at her, grinning cruelly, "Now... it's your..."
"...turn..."
His words were interrupted by a deep, resonant voice.
Ren Ting Ting looked up in surprise, following the sound.
She saw a figure radiating golden light slowly descending in front of her, from the sky above.
His figure was ethereal, his back facing her, but Ren Ting Ting knew that the person was Mu Chen!
"Dao Brother! You're back!"
Ji Shu, slumped on the ground, burst into joy upon seeing Mu Chen.
Ren Fa and the townspeople watching were also overjoyed.
Some had witnessed Mu Chen killing Wang Wang Forget with their own eyes a few days ago.
Others who hadn't, had heard about Mu Chen's defeat of Wang Wang Forget in the past half month, with more than one version of the story!
The name "Little Immortal" had already become renowned in Renjia Town!
"Yin Spirit... seems you've improved a lot in the past half month!"
"As I said, you geniuses are the most annoying..."
Upon seeing Mu Chen, Wang Wang Forget's face darkened, then he grinned again, "You were once a Hao Ran Earth Master, I was weaker than you by a third, now I am also a Red-Clad, and my realm surpasses yours, what do you have to fight me with?"
"Today, they will not live, and neither will you!"
"The revenge for my death, the hatred for the murder of my sister, today, it's time to settle the score!"
A surging tide of Yin Qi erupted from his body, soaring into the sky, completely obscuring the moonlight and stars!
Darkness enveloped almost half of Renjia Town!
The biting cold wind it brought caused everyone's limbs to go numb!
Seeing this, Ji Shu couldn't help but look on in horror. Wang Wang Forget was stronger than before, by more than one dimension. During their previous fight, Wang Wang Forget had not been using his full power!
This terrifying... can Dao Brother Mu Chen manage?
Ji Shu couldn't help but feel worried and anxious.
Facing the erupting Wang Wang Forget, Mu Chen remained expressionless, stepping forward.
At this moment, a trembling voice came from behind.
"If you can't win, remember to run..."
Mu Chen's footsteps paused.
"And... don't forget me."
The voice carried a sense of longing and plea.
Mu Chen twitched at the corner of his eye. It felt like he was an old general in a Peking opera, not even on stage yet, his back was already covered in flags...
"Relax, he doesn't know how powerful I am. And... don't jinx it, if a word becomes a curse, it's all over."
Mu Chen waved his hand, took a step, and in the next instant, he was in front of Wang Wang Forget.
"Little Red-Clad likes fireworks, right?"
"Come, open your mouth, taste my big firework!"
Mu Chen raised his hand, his palm facing Wang Wang Forget's face, unleashing a Dragon Tiger Mountain Yin Five Thunder, aiming for a close-range attack!
Boom~~!
The scorching electric beam bloomed on Wang Wang Forget's face, Yin Qi dissipating continuously!
Wang Wang Forget screamed and blasted backwards!
A smile appeared on Mu Chen's lips as he spoke slowly, "Little Red-Clad, my firework is great... no, my stick is great, right? Did it blow you up good?"
Wang Wang Forget didn't understand, only feeling excruciating pain on his face. The mocking tone made him certain that Mu Chen wasn't saying anything good!
"I'm going to kill you!!!"
He let out a shrill scream, the black Yin Qi around him churning violently, his ghostly claws reaching for Mu Chen's face.
Mu Chen did not retreat, but instead advanced. One hand unleashed Yin Five Thunder, the other moved with the grace of a butterfly, drawing talismans in the void!
One was a ghost body, the other an Yin Spirit, both free from the shackles of the flesh. Their speed of movement and dodging during their confrontation was as if they were teleporting, the ordinary eye couldn't keep up!
One could only discern the intensity of the battle from the constant roar and flashing colors.
This evenly matched battle left Ren Fa and the townspeople awestruck!
In their eyes, Wang Wang Forget was as powerful as a god, even Ji Shu, who was always able to handle everything, like a guardian god, was defeated by him!
It could be said that before Mu Chen's arrival, the despair and fear of death had enveloped everyone's hearts!
Now, Mu Chen had given them hope for survival!
Ji Shu's heart also settled. He had figured it out, Mu Chen was no ordinary Hao Ran Earth Master, the superior Dao techniques of Dragon Tiger Mountain were far beyond what a wild, demonic cultivator could learn.
Even if he was a realm higher than Mu Chen, even if Mu Chen only had his Yin Spirit incarnation, he believed that Mu Chen would not lose!
Even if he couldn't kill Wang Wang Forget, he could force him to retreat!
His concern now was for the other side, the battle between the bandits and the young men of the town!
These bandits had practiced body-tempering demonic arts, although very rudimentary, the difference in physical strength between them and the townsfolk was too great. As time passed, the young men of the town would eventually all die!
Thinking about this, Ji Shu couldn't help but shift his worried gaze towards the bandit battle group.
As expected, everything was as he thought, over two hundred young men of the town had been killed, while the bandits had only lost twenty men!
His two disciples, Wen Cai and Qiu Sheng, were also in a bad situation!
Especially Wen Cai, the fact that he was still alive was thanks to Qiu Sheng's protection and his own good luck!
After a series of battles, Qiu Sheng was overwhelmed and couldn't take care of him anymore, relying solely on good luck would be hard for him to survive among the ruthless bandits!
"Wen Cai..."
Ji Shu's face turned sorrowful. Although Wen Cai was lazy and gluttonous, and somewhat vain, he was not inherently bad. During the initial battle with the bandits, he charged faster than Qiu Sheng!
He even shouted with passionate and 热血 words, "Even if I need to shoulder the responsibility of taking care of my junior brother, I can still kill your dog heads with one hand holding a steel knife!"
Now, how could he be about to die?
Ji Shu wanted to save him, but he was already exhausted and had internal injuries, his heart was willing but his strength was insufficient.
Then, Ji Shu's face suddenly froze.
He saw a female ghost figure charging into the battle group, he didn't know when she had appeared!
Looking at her Yin Qi, although it wasn't as strong as Wang Wang Forget's, it had already reached the eighth level of a 厉 ghost!
A powerful ghost spirit that rarely appeared once in decades!
Moreover, her appearance wasn't a blow to the already precarious situation, her target was clear, to kill the bandits!
What confused Ji Shu even more was that, when Wen Cai saw her, he immediately beamed!
"Daober婶, save me!"
Daober婶?
What?!
Dao Brother Mu Chen doesn't even spare ghosts???
