Chapter 391
I’ve Led the Villain Astray, How Do I Fix It?
Chapter 391
With a swoosh, a bolt of purple lightning pierced through the air, directly piercing straight into Flower Tail’s Qichong acupoint. With crackling sounds, Little Greenie and his little brothers wreaked havoc inside Flower Tail’s body, quickly turning the massive snake body upside down.
Little Greenie led the little brothers and finally emerged from one of the wounds caused by Little Eight’s arrow, exclaiming: Oh my, it’s too hard to destroy such an enormous body! This is labor abuse, you know?! Master really makes life difficult for us. It’s been so many years, yet there’s no improvement at all! ╭(╯^╰)╮
As a seriously injured person, ah no, a seriously injured snake, Flower Tail was eaten very pitifully… Yup, being eaten by Xu Zirong.
Originally, the poison mist and the blood mist could barely match each other’s strength, but after receiving a boost from Victory Greenie, Xu Zirong’s strength significantly increased (in fact, it was his successful coquettishness that greatly improved his mood…). He immediately gained the upper hand and ended the deadlock in the fight. While a bunch of Purple Night Divine Thunder wreaked havoc inside, blood mist continued to erode away from the outside, so Flower Tail sadly became Xu Zirong’s fertilizer… (Something sounds weird though…)
The blood mist formed by the Blood Sea Heart Sutra was extremely corrosive, especially after Flower Tail had no strength to resist. Within a few breaths, it was reduced to nothing but a white set of bones.
After Xu Zirong transformed back to his human form, he grabbed a huge inner core and offered it as a treasure to his elder brother with joy.
Xu Ziyan raised an eyebrow, snorted through his nostrils and expressed his satisfaction. After that, he casually smoothed Xu Zirong’s hair, while the younger brother showed a relaxed expression.
Meanwhile, Tianle on the side: It’s like watching the beast tamer turning a lion into a little lamb live…
In fact, he really wanted to shake Xu Zirong’s shoulder forcefully and yell several times: Buddy, what is wrong with you? How can you be appeased so easily?! What about your principles, what about your dark phase! Where’s your imprisonment plan? As a lunatic, you’re now letting your brother touch your fur and showing your belly, where has your dignity gone to! Damn! I can’t argue when I’m angry now!
After dealing with the sudden incident, Xu Ziyan did not care about Tianle’s bitter and resentful expressions. From his point of view, Tianle had been a lunatic all year round, while occasionally having a silly little lunatic episode. Basically, there were times when he would not act like a mad lad, which were very few. As long as he did not hinder them, who cared whether he was currently having a lunatic episode or not.
Thus, Tianle, who had put in great effort to shape his image, felt disappointed as Xu Ziyan and Xu Zirong seemed unimpressed and uninterested in him. All efforts were in vain, and even Xu Zirong did not bother to make eye contact with him.
Tianle: …It’s over. My crazy companions are not on the same page as me anymore… (╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻
Dodging the attacks of a bunch of pots and pans at the fastest speed, Xu Ziyan and his group finally entered the third secret path. Compared to the previous two paths, the level of treatment they got in the current secret path had dropped significantly. Along the way, they encountered numerous traps and mechanisms. When they finally reached the trap that was marked red on the map, they had to fight a tough battle to pass it.
Their opponents this time were seven bear monsters. They were only at the golden core cultivation stage, yet the trio were in a miserable fight that it took great effort to finish them off.
In theory, three nascent soul cultivators could easily handle the seven golden core bear monsters, even with their eyes closed. However, what the ones they met were seven bear demons that practiced swordsmanship… Hmm, or, we should call them sword monsters?
Ahem. Anyway, regardless of what they were called, those seven bears not only comprehended the breath of the sword, but also knew the Seven Star Sword Formation. They displayed remarkable strength and were adept at both offense and defense with tacit cooperation.
If it were not for Tianle’s sharp-tongued taunts and his top-notch escape skills, they really would not have killed the seven bears by using the kite-flying method…
“Phew… These days, even bears can become sword cultivators…” Tianle panted heavily, leaning against the wall without any grace.
“They’re called sword monsters…” Xu Ziyan retorted boredly.
Tianle could not help rolling his eyes, “Whether they’re humans, monsters, or some combination of both, they’ll die in the end.”
Xu Zirong silently took out a clean handkerchief to wipe off his elder brother’s sweat. As for Tianle, who had done most of the work just now… Screw him!
Tianle looked at Xu Zirong with resentment, but Xu Zirong ignored him. He then turned to stare at Xu Ziyan with hidden bitterness, but he was resolutely caught by Xu Zirong’s murderous sight…
Tianle: →_→ If you don’t want to wipe for me, then don’t. I’m just asking someone else for help, but why are you staring daggers at me…
Xu Zirong: (#‵ ′) Anyone who yearns for Brother’s attention must die!
Xu Ziyan: == Damn it, it’s really tiring to be caught between two mad lads…
“Alright, let’s quickly pack up. We’ll be able to find the central secret room soon once we leave, so don’t waste any more time.” Xu Ziyan said as he took a pill to replenish his spiritual power, then stood up.
Tianle also knew the urgency of the situation. Although he had thoughts of going against Xu Zirong, he finally chose to follow Xu Ziyan’s suggestion.
The mad lad was also a cultivator, so he still needed the spiritual treasures for cultivation. Having a lunatic episode was still a trivial matter, but if he returned empty-handed this time, his master would be furious… Tianle suddenly withered, _(:3」∠)_ His imagination was too beautiful that he dared not look at it…
He was obviously a lunatic at the nascent soul stage, but being frightened so much by a bunch of his master’s little ghost subordinates was too embarrassing for him…
After leaving the third secret path, they were only three streets away from the central secret room.
Two of the three streets were filled with ordinary residences, but there was only one street that seemed to have extravagant buildings. If they got a little closer, they could smell various alluring aromas.
…
…
…
Heh, heh… Have you ever imagined a sky filled with ancient undergarment adorned with sharp teeth? Have you ever seen embroidered shoes with the size of a small boat, yet baring teeth and claws that were ready to strike? Have you experienced pictures of beautiful women with ferocious faces and fangs, yet they were still smiling and giggling seductively?
Seriously?! It’s fine if your brothel doesn’t have any gorgeous beauties, but what’s with all the enchanted monsters inside??
Xu Ziyan felt like he had flipped all the tables in his entire lifetime since he entered the central city—— Well, considering the number of times the considerate Xu Zirong had rearranged the tables for him.
Facing so many creatures, he truly felt that he could not handle that anymore. The undergarment with sharp teeth fluttering in the sky was as terrifying as the hundred-ghost banner. Moreover, that creature was too ruthless. Some little monsters that got closer to it were swallowed up by that undergarment before Xu Ziyan and his group could have a chance to act.
That embroidered shoe… the one that looked like a small boat, took steps that could shake the streets by three times. If it started trotting, Xu Ziyan and the others probably would not even be able to stand still, so they could only fly on their swords.
As for the beauty pictures, it was even more disgusting. It was not their fault that they were drawn ugly, but it was clearly their fault for coming out to scare people. What was even more hateful was that they still kept chasing after others, and asking: Am I pretty? Am I pretty?
That’s simply insane!!
Xu Ziyan and his group were speechless in face of such a chaotic street. They clearly knew that they could see a tall building once they passed the street corner, which was most likely the central secret room if there were no mishaps. However, they were stuck in that street and could not move forward no matter what they did.
Xu Ziyan did consider changing to another street, but all the other streets nearby were also blocked, making it impossible for them to pass.
In that central city, if there was no way forward, it truly meant that there was no way forward. Although the wall might seem small and breakable with just a kick, but just like the bamboo buildings that were blocked before, that wall represented a powerful rule. No matter what method Xu Ziyan and his group used, they simply could not break through it. Moreover, if they attacked it too frequently, their actions might attract a heavenly lightning strike.
Although the heavenly lightning bolt was only a warning and Xu Ziyan himself had strong resistance to lightning, the three of them might still face non-combat losses in that situation.
“What do we do?” Tianle was also dumbfounded while looking at the flying undergarments, handkerchiefs, embroidered shoes, and others, all over the sky. Those things densely blocked the entire street. Even with his maxed-out escape skills and being surrounded by so many powerful monsters, just one of their attacks might easily cost him his life.
Xu Ziyan was also troubled. He never thought that it would be like that in the central city.
It was clearly stated in the that the few traps that Bai Hua encountered were very common ones. Why did the daily necessities become creatures as well? It was just illogical!
(The Heavens stated: It’s the protagonist’s halo, you know…)
(Xu Ziyan: …)
After much contemplation, Xu Ziyan could not come up with any good plans. Sure, they could fight their way through, but they just encountered three big obstacles (the undergarments, embroidered shoes, and beauty picture) at that street corner. Who knew if there were anymore ‘great things’ waiting for them later?
Those were actually quite simple to deal with. However, they just could not forget the fact that they were on a street full of brothels. Who knew what weird and kinky items would be hidden within? What if they came across creatures, like a whip, candle, jades or others? Having that thought alone gave them nausea…
“If you have any ideas, speak up.” Xu Ziyan shrugged, showing that he was out of options.
Tianle silently looked at the various handkerchiefs and undergarments that were trapped in the street by the rule’s walls. He silently shrunk his neck, because the difficulty was too high.
Xu Zirong had considered transforming into Blood Sea Heart Sutra to carry them in together, but that could be risky. If they managed to charge directly into the building, it might be fine, but if he was attack midway and had to transform back from the blood sea state, the three of them would be left stranded in the sea of enemies, almost certainly leading to their death.
Xu Zirong had confidence in Blood Sea Heart Sutra, but he would not act recklessly either. The world was full of wonders, and who could guarantee that the monsters on the street did not possess some special spell that could revert him from the blood sea state? In his previous life, he had once experienced such a situation, even though it was a formation set up by four cooperating people. Still, the possibility of such events made him cautious. He would never dare to gamble with his and his brother’s lives.
He still wanted to save his life with his brother for a long and happy one. He would rather not die at the hands of such dirty brothel monsters! ╭(╯^╰)╮
The three of them exchanged glances, but no one had any ideas. Xu Ziyan could not help but smile wryly. Although he used to find a certain phrase in the to be quite ridiculous, he now realized its truth: In the face of absolute strength, all schemes and tricks are futile.
Now, Brothel Street had strength, yet they simply had none…
