Strictly speaking, this may be Liangqiu Muwan's first confrontation with a powerful monster since he was born.
Lord Yingyue was considered a human being, but Lord Xueyue, she had never had a real and straightforward fight to the death with him. Monsters can always use various moves that ordinary people cannot predict, such as sudden explosions of gravel, earth walls rising from the ground, unexpected sandstorms, and the ground turning into silt and quickly solidifying...
He was indeed no ordinary person - Wu Yin did not use any weapons, he just relied on his own ability to fight Mu Wan who was holding a paper umbrella. She couldn't parry, but she wouldn't be defeated, but she had to focus all her energy on the battle and had no time to be distracted by Shi Wuqi. But after a few rounds, she seemed to gradually discover some secrets.
Anything related to earth can be used by him.
Wu Yin is naturally quite knowledgeable in the magic of the Five Elements. But on this road, there is dirt everywhere, and anything can be turned into flying sand and rocks for his use. This fight was so humiliating that she felt really aggrieved.
As for Shi Wuqi, it wasn't much better. If he were allowed to compete with Kari Gondo in real terms - the latter himself had said that he would most likely not be Mr. Shi's opponent. But the problem is that in this seemingly fair distribution of opponents, the action of controlling Miss Qi takes up a lot of his energy. Although Ah Qi's every move could be as natural as a living person, under this two-on-two, targeted "attack", his mind was indeed torn apart.
I don’t know what Kari Gondo did to the sick man. Young Master Zhang, who seemed to be able to destroy everything with a gust of wind, was enveloped in a strong demonic aura. This demonic energy does not entirely belong to Kari Gondo, but is mixed with other demonic powers. Perhaps they collected different powers and processed them before injecting them into Master Zhang.
"The dead are actually very powerful." This is what Wu Qi said to Mu Wan and the others. "When you are alive, your body can use the maximum amount of force and spiritual power - as long as it is not purely technical. Restricted. Your brain must let your body protect you. Would you hammer a stone hard? In fact, you can break it with brute force alone, but you think you can't do it. Your heart tells you You can't. This is because when the stone cracks, your hand may be destroyed as well."
"So the dead man's hand will not be broken?" A Luan asked at that time.
"Yes, but it depends on the strength and the control skills of the person. Maybe the force of breaking the stone is just enough that you will feel pain, but it will not break your own hand, but it can damage it. And the dead have no emotions, no There will be fear and there will be no hesitation.”
Qi will not be afraid.
But he would hesitate.
This crisp sound meant that the fourth and fifth ribs on Miss Qi's left side were broken. Shi Wuqi had seen Master Zhang's hands before and judged from Yuzi that he was left-handed. Although these seem to have little meaning to the corpse, the corpse man acts randomly due to simple instructions from the controller. If you want him to punch the opponent, the corpse man will usually use his dominant hand.
But Shi Wuqi could clearly see that he was punching Aqi's left chest with his right fist. Although as a dead person, this power is no different from the left hand he used commonly in life, Shi Wuqi still captured this detail.
He was hesitating, he was thinking.
He was wondering why Master Zhang did this.
Every abnormality is not just an anomaly, but an anomaly that grows out of normality. If it is abnormal, it has a purpose, and if it is a purpose, every previous move will be clear.
So it was Miss Yuting who asked him to do this.
Who did Miss Yuting listen to? Naturally, it’s Kari Gondo.
What does Kari Gondo want to do?
Suddenly, several golden lights flashed across his sight like lightning. Shi Wuqi raised his fan. The metal and wood made a harsh and terrifying friction sound, and the fan was opened. Shi Wuqi immediately turned his head. The sharp and exquisite metal armor on Shou Gongduo's finger was drilling a shallow mark on his fan. If he had been imbued with spiritual power just a moment later, he would have penetrated this paper fan. Thoroughly.
"Don't get distracted," he grinned.
Geckos are really "sticky", Shi Wuqi thought to himself.
"Are you a dog-skin plaster?"
"Didn't we agree that your opponent is me?"
"When did you agree? Did you sign the contract?"
Shi Wuqi flicked the fan on, almost catching Shou Gongduo's finger cot. It would be fine if he was caught by an ordinary fan, but the moment he closed the fan, a few inconspicuous sparks burst out. Everyone should know that the fan can cut off fingers.
"I respect you so much and regard you as a senior in this industry, but you are really disrespecting me."
"It's weird. Is this how your master taught you to respect your master and love your Tao? Even if I accept Liangqiu as my disciple, I still won't recognize you as a junior."
"Are you sick, Shi? Are you looking for death?"
She still has time to listen to people chatting, and even talk back. It seems that she is dealing with people well. Shi Wuqi thought to himself.
But now that dog skin plaster was mentioned, Mu Wan naturally had to use her trump card - she didn't want to rely on this all the time.
When the huge Tengu appeared from the white clouds and descended from the sky, they clearly felt that the two people opposite them trembled. Although there was a moment of doubt, but thinking about it carefully, it is indeed normal for bugs to be afraid of dogs.
Under Mu Wan's instruction, the Tengu didn't talk nonsense to them. It rushed straight towards Wu Yin like an out-of-control beast, bit him before he could react, and flew away into the sky.
Kari Gonduo was only surprised for a short moment. He immediately came back to his senses and launched an attack on Mu Wan. At the same time, a strange black mark suddenly appeared on Master Zhang's face, and he acted with him in an attempt to kill Mu Wan who controlled the Tengu. She quickly raised her umbrella to parry. When Master Zhang rushed forward, she clearly saw that the mark turned out to be a tattoo shaped like a gecko.
I'm afraid it's Kari Gondo's curse. A monster that can do this... rather, he is worthy of being Satsuki-kun's subordinate.
Miss Yuting seemed a little anxious. Her horn whistle suddenly stopped working. No matter how much she blew, Master Zhang would not listen to him. Shi Wuqi immediately saw that this was Kari Gongduo's trick - he first injected a large amount of demonic power into the corpse, filling the body with demonic energy, and then controlled it like a monster. This is indeed a good idea.
But it makes no sense.
This living corpse, like a marionette, is far worse than a real human being.
...Not necessarily. If it were filled with human souls, it would be hard to say. He injects demon spirits just because they are easier to control, and they can do more things than ordinary puppets, and can even use some magic. Death Shadow Pavilion's research always jumps on the edge of forbidden arts, and I don't know what Lord Yama's attitude is.
But Shi Wuqi didn't want to think too much - and he didn't think too much. At this critical moment, he suddenly threw the fan violently. The fan spun and rushed towards Yuting, hitting the horn in her hand. As expected, the horn whistle had no additional protection. The tip was broken off and fell to the ground. Yuting quickly picked up the whistle and then covered her painful fingers, tears welling up in pain.
He waved his hand again, and the fan was pulled back by him as if it was tied to a string, and fell steadily into his hand.
If the token that controls the corpse is broken, the spell will be lifted. Without spiritual support, the manipulated corpse will immediately lose the ability to move.
But Master Zhang didn't.
Shi Wuqi seemed to have ignored the fact that he was already half a demon at this time.
"Oops! Get out of the way!"
He shouted to Mu Wan almost like a roar. Mu Wan, who was originally about to open his umbrella as a defense, was stunned for a moment, but then he pushed hard on the ground with his feet and jumped back. Sure enough, Master Zhang suddenly lost control and made a strange neighing noise from his mouth - his vocal cords were rotten. Young Master Zhang was dancing with joy, and the skin all over his body was rapidly changing between blue and purple and black and green. Some parts of the skin became horrifying. Some muscle tissue was very stiff, while other places were as soft as rotten. A large amount of demon power sealed in it rushed out of his body, causing him to tremble uncontrollably and his movements were extremely unnatural.
Kari Gondo stopped and tried to stabilize him with a spell, but it was too late. The black marks melted and spread across his face, forming twisted shadows.
Suddenly, the tengu's painful cry came from nowhere. Mu Wan looked around very alertly and found that it was fighting with something long and thin in the air. When they landed on the ground not far away, she discovered that a huge, terrifying centipede was fighting with the tengu.
"Uh-huh - so, so disgusting!" She felt goosebumps, "Has the centipede become a spirit?!"
"...That's right." Shi Wuqi looked at her inexplicably.
I understand the logic, but why are centipedes so big?
"I don't like dogs."
Kari Gonduo's voice came from not far behind them. The two of them turned around and saw Kari Gonduo holding Yuting's shoulders with one hand and laying long sharp nails across her neck with the other hand.
"Miss Liangqiu, Mr. Shi, run quickly... to save Aluan."
She struggled, her voice was very soft, but it reached their ears clearly.
"...Don't ask me to do this kind of moral multiple-choice question."
Shi Wuqi frowned and smiled ugly. Mu Wan's anger was more direct. She had always had disgust written on her face for this kind of threat of taking hostages - but this did not prevent her from feeling the same level of embarrassment as Shi Wuqi.
"None of us like dogs - take it back or I'll kill her."
They immediately understood that although Wu Yin could struggle with the Tengu for a while, it was just to delay time. In terms of a protracted war, he is definitely no match for Tengu. But how cunning this group of people are, just like Xie Yan, they are monsters who won't even blink at "their own people". Although they are very united within themselves.
"Let her go and let us go - you have no right to negotiate terms with us."
Shi Wuqi said firmly. Mu Wan just quickly judged the advantage, but did not expect him to answer like this. If you think about it carefully, although it is risky, it is indeed very confident.
A worthy businessman.
