Chapter 574: Chapter 183: I am Fan Wu from Qiulong Temple! Daoist Priest Fan Strikes the Heart! (10,000-word Mega Chapter for Subscription)_2
He crashed heavily into a shop on the street side.
Knocking a big hole in the wall.
"Blood Gu Sect Deacon," the assailant did not hide his identity, but proclaimed it openly.
This was a middle-aged man of average build, with a faint movement of mana on his skin, and the aura he exuded was extraordinarily impressive.
He paid no mind to the Big Monk who had smashed into the shop and calmly turned his head to look at the One-armed Daoist beside him.
On an unremarkable face hung a trace of cruel, fierce smile, "Why do you people love to meddle so much?"
"Blood Gu Sect... Deacon!" the One-armed Daoist quickly backed away, his right hand unknowingly clutching a stack of talismans.
His face was marked with grave seriousness, "I didn’t expect us two outsiders to draw the attention of someone like you."
"Hehe..." the Blood Gu Sect Deacon said with a cold laugh, "The two of you have killed seven of our ordinary sect disciples and two cultivator disciples. It would be very difficult for me not to notice you!"
"..." The One-armed Daoist remained silent, sensing the oppressive aura emanating from the Blood Gu Sect Deacon.
Even in his prime, he had not a shred of hope against a Blood Gu Sect Deacon of such caliber.
Even if he were to add the Monk to the equation, at best they could only hope to achieve a ratio of three to seven against their opponent.
And they would be the three,
While the opponent would be the seven.
"What’s this? Knowing that you’re no match for me, you still choose not to flee?" the Blood Gu Sect Deacon narrowed his eyes, glancing at a shop not far from the street. The Big Monk who had been sent flying had already stood up from the ruins.
The Big Monk, holding a heavy Zen Staff, stepped to the outside of the shop and glared at the Blood Gu Sect Deacon like an enraged Vajra.
"Running away is pointless, there’s no way to escape from your grasp. Rather than being a mouse in a cat’s game, I’d rather fight with all my might—even at the risk of my life—to hold you back," said the One-armed Daoist with an impassive yet solemn tone.
"Hah!" The Blood Gu Sect Deacon praised, "The two of you are not from the Imperial City, yet you care so much for the citizens of Imperial City. This is much nobler than the Taoist priests and monks inside the Imperial City."
"If you two are willing to join the Blood Gu Sect, I can pretend as if nothing happened. I might even introduce you to our Elder."
"Damn it! You heretical scoundrel, are you done with your nonsense?" the Big Monk, holding the Zen Staff, charged forward.
"I’ll be damned if I convert to your Blood Gu Sect!" The Big Monk cursed blatantly as he wielded the Zen Staff as a weapon, smashing it down viciously toward the Blood Gu Sect Deacon.
The Blood Gu Sect Deacon’s expression darkened, "You reject a courteous offer and instead choose punishment? Then go to your death!"
He dodged the Big Monk’s strike with a swift sidestep.
Raising his hand, he waved his sleeve.
Several Gu insects flew out from his sleeve, biting down simultaneously when they landed on the Big Monk!
The Big Monk, as if struck by a freezing spell, became extremely rigid.
"What is this?" the Big Monk exclaimed in shock, "What kind of devilry now?!"
"Paralysis Gu," the Blood Gu Sect Deacon commented nonchalantly before aiming a palm strike at the Big Monk’s chest.
"Hasten as if it’s an imperative order!" A forceful shout came from the One-armed Daoist, followed by a lightning bolt roughly as thick as a finger, shooting towards the Blood Gu Sect Deacon in a surprise attack.
"Hmph!" the Blood Gu Sect Deacon grunted angrily, his body surging with Blood Mana, rendering the lightning bolt incapable of reaching him!
His hand, shrouded in bloody light, was about to hit the Big Monk’s chest.
This scene...
Filled the One-armed Daoist with rage.
He desperately wanted to save the Big Monk, but he had already taken his shot, and the truth was he was simply no match for this Blood Gu Sect Deacon. His earlier Thunder Talisman attack had been nullified by the Deacon with just a grunt of annoyance.
"Hey!"
As the Blood Gu Sect Deacon’s hand was less than two inches away from the Big Monk’s chest,
A sudden and unexpected voice arose to the right of the Blood Gu Sect Deacon, "This humble Taoist finds these two quite pleasing to the eye. Could you perhaps show some respect and spare them for my sake?"
The Blood Gu Sect Deacon’s movement abruptly stiffened, and that smirk on his face solidified.
Who was it that appeared instantly on his right side
Without him having any awareness?
Turning his head in haste, he saw a towering burly man standing to his right. The man’s voice sounded as though it was just inches away, yet the figure was several steps away from him.
He saw the man carrying an exaggeratedly large sword on his back and a small twig in his mouth.
It looked as casual as if it were a toothpick.
"Who are you?!" the Blood Gu Sect Deacon asked warily.
"Barely qualifying as a Taoist," the newcomer responded.
The Blood Gu Sect Deacon narrowed his eyes.
This disdainful attitude annoyed him immensely because he had just exhibited the same attitude towards the One-armed Daoist and the Big Monk.
An attitude... If he applied it onto others, he would feel satisfied. But when the tables turned, he found it detestable!
