Chapter 95 - 94 Pincer Attack from Both Front and Rear...

Chapter 95: Chapter 94 Pincer Attack from Both Front and Rear…

Yang Shi retreated back into the Xiang Family’s great array.

He swallowed two healing pills and began to slowly regulate his breath.

“They’re tough to deal with… these two have meticulous minds and an abundance of spells and magic treasures, making it very hard to find a weak spot.”

The Second Grade Thunder Talisman given by Murong Ziyuan could only provide temporary suppression and wasn’t a substantial threat to the fat and skinny Taoists.

They seemed to have an endless supply of Demonic Qi, relying on the Soul Summoning Banner.

“Who knows how many killings these two have committed!”

Every drop of Demonic Qi was obtained through murder and plunder.

All those vengeful ghosts in the banner were once ordinary people.

“It looks like I have to use my last resort…”

Over the past few years, Yang Shi had traded Spirit Stones for a trump card for his family, meant to deal with Foundation Establishment cultivators.

But he never expected that the fat and skinny Taoists would be so tough that he’d have to use this trump card.

Meanwhile, the fat and skinny Taoists, who had been entangled with the Yang Family for half a day, were also in bad shape, no longer showing their initial mockery and composure; their faces were sinister and grim.

“So many talismans from this family… there have been about 100 of them now, right?”

“Thirty-four Second Grade, and a hundred and two First Grade.”

“Damn it! That’s 2000 Spirit Stones! How does he have more Spirit Stones than us Demon Cultivators? Even robbing wouldn’t be this fast!”

The fat Demon Cultivator was green with envy; these Spirit Stones were enough for him to refine another Demon Device for himself.

His favorite Ghost Fetus had been directly slain, and he was so angry that even now… his belly felt deflated!

“With so many Spirit Stones on this person… once we take down his family, our gains will certainly be rich.”

The two Demon Cultivators buckled down and attacked with full spirit; without Yang Shi, they could attack the array with full force. Jiang Xiaobai and Yang Fu were immediately under tremendous pressure.

“Father, the array won’t hold for much longer…”

The Second Grade array was already on the verge of collapse!

“I will hold them off.”

Yang Shi took out a talisman emitting strong waves of Spiritual Power from his body—[Ice Sealing Restriction].

The Third Grade talisman could withstand a full blow from a Foundation Establishment Great Power and was worth 1000 Spirit Stones.

As he was preparing to drill out of the ground, he caught sight of a pair of cat ears bounding towards him from the depths of the southern forest.

Hu Yue rode on a giant ice crocodile, quickly approaching.

“Eh?”

“So many humans.”

“New humans smell so bad…”

She covered her nose, clearly disliking the bloody scent that permeated the air.

Her moon-shaped demon eyes flashed with purple light, and she could see the fluttering souls clearly in the sky.

“They… are in so much pain…”

Upon seeing the Cat Demon arrive, Yang Shi was overjoyed!

He put away the only Third Grade talisman he had.

“Cat Daoist friend! Kill them, and I’ll play with you!”

“If you and I strike from front and rear, we can prevent them from focusing on either side!”

Hu Yue understood.

She looked at the fat and skinny Taoists with a disgusted expression, “New humans, not fun, tear apart.”

Boom!

Hu Yue leaped forward, charging at them with a body several times stronger than Yang Shi’s physical form, and slammed into the fat Taoist.

Pfft!

Her cat claws tore off a huge chunk of the fat Taoist’s belly.

Disgusted, Hu Yue threw away the flesh.

“The meat is spoiled…”

Fat Taoist: “Ahhh!!!”

Right in front of his eyes, a phantom charged by, and then a large piece of his belly was missing. The tearing pain made him involuntarily scream out loud.

“Who is this person!”

Hu Yue didn’t want to waste words with these stinky humans. She unleashed the pressure of a superior predator, and in the darkness, her claws swung rapidly like the scythe of the Grim Reaper.

The fat and skinny Demon Cultivators were scratched all over, looking extremely bedraggled.

Huddled together, their eyes were filled with terror.

“They’re from the Demon Clan!”

“Why would the Demon Clan help him!”

There was no answer to their question, only Hu Yue’s relentless slaughter…

She was the true ruler of the night.

“Soul Purgatory!!!”

The fat and skinny Demon Cultivators burst out with their strongest Demonic Qi. Their Lifebound Demon Artifact, the Soul Summoning Banner, released the souls they had accumulated, turning the 300 meters around them blood-red!

The entire space turned into a purgatory.

When Hu Yue tried to re-enter, countless bloody hands reached out from the crimson space, firmly grabbing her.

Pfft, pfft, pfft!

She slashed with her claws; countless hands were severed, but it felt like there were innumerable people crammed inside, dragging her down.

This was the ultimate technique of the fat and skinny Taoists. In this Soul Purgatory, all were souls they had refined; no one could harm them!

“Even if you are from the Demon Clan, once you enter the purgatory… you will become one of my souls! No one in the Qi Refinement Realm can break my brothers’ purgatory!”

“This Cat Demon’s soul… is so pure~ it has a clean and sweet fragrance.”

Countless bloody hands and shadows grasped Hu Yue, keeping her immobilized on the spot.

“Don’t harm my Cat Daoist friend!”

Yang Shi set up a sniper rifle in a large tree, holding a purple lightning talisman in his hand.

“Second Grade Talisman: Thunder Spear Technique!”

Bang!

The sniper bullet charged forth with the power of a thunder dragon.

Boom!

It pierced directly through the blood-red Soul Purgatory, tearing open a gigantic crackling lightning fissure!

Hu Yue’s purple pupils shimmered with light.

Boom!

A massive block of ice descended from the sky, smashing a huge crater into the Soul Purgatory and evaporating a vast number of souls with its extreme cold.

Rumble rumble~

The Icebound Behemoth was covered in a layer of frost armor, charging into the fray with its massive body.

A seventh-layer water element high-grade demon beast of Qi Cultivation!

This was originally what Hu Yue had captured for Yang Shi as a token of her heart.

Now, it also displayed tremendous combat power.

Duang!

The Purgatory was struck and distorted, countless souls erased by the force of the cold.

Hu Yue also took the opportunity to sever the myriad bloody hands around her and leaped onto the Icebound Behemoth.

“Don’t even think about escaping!”

The thin Taoist spread his hands wide, and a pair of massive Blood Hands appeared out of thin air next to Hu Yue, gripping her tightly once again.

Hu Yue’s body erupted with purple demon energy, desperately resisting.

Yang Shi saw that the blood-red Purgatory had yet to be broken and, feeling anxious, slapped another Second Grade Talisman of Thunder Spear Technique onto the sniper rifle. If this shot still couldn’t break through, he would have no choice but to resort to a Third Grade Talisman to defeat the enemy!

Before he could attack, an extremely powerful wave of lightning surged from within the Purgatory.

Boom!

A massive current of purple electricity exploded within the Soul Purgatory!

Two Soul Summoning Banners were instantly blasted into char, all souls disappearing without a trace.

“How dare you kill disciples of my Xuan Stone Sect! I’ll fight you to the end!”

“Yang, run!”

“I’ll hold them off for you!”

Chu Qiao unleashed all her spiritual power, entering her strongest state; the fire of her soul also began to burn in her head.

If she were to die, she wanted to do one last thing before her end.

Bang!

Yang Shi executed a Thunder Dragon Iaido with one shot, blowing up the head of the thin demon cultivator.

Splat!

The cat demon twisted off the head of the fat demon cultivator with one swipe of her paw, her pupils turning blood red as she turned to look at Chu Qiao, her face full of killing intent.

She pounced forward.

“Hold on!!!”

Yang Shi caught sight of Chu Qiao’s condition and immediately stepped in front of Hu Yue’s attack.

Chu Qiao had just used all her mental strength to unleash the full power of Murong Ziyan’s Third Grade Life-saving Thunder Prison Talisman, only to emerge… and find the situation had drastically changed.

Eventually, the three of them stopped at the entrance of the Spirit Lake Manor.

Hu Yue sniffed around Chu Qiao.

“You, you don’t smell bad… you smell nice.”

She then put away her killing intent, her eyes once again regaining their clear, foolish look, expectantly staring at Yang Shi.

“You promised to play with me.”

Chu Qiao: “???”

She stopped the burning of her soul, completely baffled.

“Isn’t there someone who should be explaining the situation to me right now?”

Yang Shi glanced at her, “Senior sister Chu, I think you should first explain how you suddenly burst out like that… you gave me quite the scare.”

Just now, Yang Shi almost blew Chu Qiao away with one shot.

He thought another monster had appeared! If it weren’t for the senior sister’s distinct Thunder Technique, he would have almost shot her in the back of the head.

Strike first, get the upper hand!

Thankfully, the situation wasn’t too difficult to understand, and after a brief exchange, they both clarified the situation.

Chu Qiao said her whereabouts had somehow been exposed, and she was ambushed by the fat and thin Taoists. In the end, she had to use the Third Grade Life-saving Thunder Prison Talisman given by Murong Ziyan to save her life while waiting for her senior brothers to rescue her.

“I suspect there’s a traitor within our ranks…” said Chu Qiao.

“What mission were you on?”

“I undertook a task from the Sacrificial Hall…”

“That’s right, it’s Xiang Shi. Their Xiang Family has been secretly funding Blood Soul Valley. Didn’t the senior sister catch some of them?”

“Xiang Shi claims those were the Xiang Family’s illegitimate sons that they abandoned a long time ago, and that their actions have nothing to do with the Xiang Family, as they have severed kinship relations.”

Yang Genshuo: “???”

How come this sounds so familiar to me?

After exchanging information, Chu Qiao was filled with anger.

“It’s a good thing I ran into Younger Brother Yang this time; otherwise, I would have died at the hands of those two Taoists…”

“I need to go back and tell the senior sister! Inform the Sect Leader!”

“We at the Xuan Stone Sect must eradicate the cancer of the Xiang Family once and for all!”

Yang Shi pondered for a moment and then made up his mind.

“Senior sister Chu, you can’t leave yet…”
