Chapter 324: Chapter 186: Wifey, From Now On, I’m Your Little Fanboy
Yes, Lu Yuan comforted himself as he fled. He would never admit he was only running because he had no way to deal with the Flying Corpse at that moment.
The Flying Corpse in the air would occasionally spit flames, but Lu Yuan dodged every one.
After a while, Lu Yuan dimly made out a figure standing up ahead.
Lu Yuan was overjoyed. He had finally found his wife.
At this hour, there wouldn’t be anyone else on the street.
"Liyan!" Lu Yuan shouted. He put away his dagger and spread his arms, about to leap into her embrace.
Nothing would be better than being with his wife right now.
Lu Yuan desperately needed a hug to calm his nerves.
"Darling, watch out!" Su Liyan shouted anxiously.
He heard his wife’s voice calling from further away.
Only then did Lu Yuan realize that the motionless figure ahead wasn’t his wife.
This person had taken on Su Liyan’s appearance, and Lu Yuan, caught off guard, had nearly fallen for it.
Lu Yuan was running so fast he couldn’t stop. He was about to crash right into the figure.
Lu Yuan leaned back, his feet dragging hard against the ground. He felt as if he was about to grind right through the soles of his boots.
The figure ahead remained motionless with her back to Lu Yuan, likely waiting for him to throw himself into her embrace.
Seeing its cover was blown, the creature’s head spun one hundred and eighty degrees. A hideous fox face glared at Lu Yuan as it opened its cavernous, blood-red maw.
This Fox Spirit had been tangling with Su Liyan for a while and was actually being overpowered by her.
The Fox Spirit had sensed Lu Yuan’s approach, which was why it had taken on Su Liyan’s form. It planned to capture him and use him as a hostage to control Su Liyan.
One of the Fox Spirit’s Talent Skills was the ability to create illusions at will, making its true form difficult to discern.
"Holy shit, why do I keep running into these evil creatures tonight? Here’s another one!" As Lu Yuan looked at the fox face, he realized his wife had been right—it really was a Fox Spirit.
Using his forward momentum, Lu Yuan slammed both palms into the Fox Spirit.
The Little Fox had been too careless. It had mistaken Lu Yuan for an ordinary person and even thought it could give him a good scare.
To be fair, any ordinary person would have collapsed with weak-kneed terror at the sight of that face.
Although Lu Yuan was disgusted by the sight, he had to overcome his revulsion.
The Fox Spirit was sent flying by the blow, letting out an agonized howl.
The Fox Spirit likely never expected Lu Yuan’s Martial Arts to be so advanced.
On the other side of the Fox Spirit was Su Liyan.
Seeing the Fox Spirit flying toward her, Su Liyan transformed into the Snake Woman. Her serpentine tail shot out, catching the creature securely before wrapping tightly around its neck.
The Fox Spirit struggled to breathe, its neck constricted by the tail, and it clawed desperately at the tail.
At this moment, Su Liyan’s tail was as hard as iron—a far cry from how it felt in bed.
When the Fox Spirit realized its claws couldn’t pry the tail loose, it opened its mouth to bite down.
Seeing this, Su Liyan shoved her Celestial Master Sword into its path. The Fox Spirit bit down hard on the blade.
A sharp CRACK echoed. It must have shattered a few of its teeth.
Su Liyan, cursing furiously and devoid of her usual delicate demeanor, slapped her left hand against the Fox Spirit’s forehead, knocking it out cold.
Su Liyan then tossed the Fox Spirit aside and yanked the Celestial Master Sword from its mouth.
The dense fog began to dissipate, revealing that the Little Fox had been the cause of it all.
Watching the enraged Su Liyan, Lu Yuan put his hands to his own neck, squeezing lightly to imagine the feeling of suffocation.
He recalled the countless times her tail had coiled around his neck, and he felt truly grateful for his wife’s mercy.
If she’d used just a little more force, he probably would have ended up just like that Fox Spirit.
’Playing with snakes is risky. One must be careful!’
Lu Yuan cautiously approached his wife. Su Liyan was still in a furious state.
This wasn’t a situation that a simple kiss from him could solve.
He feared that not even a round of their usual "game" would be enough to calm his wife down.
After all, what if he went in for a kiss and she lost control and sent him flying?
Su Liyan’s eyes were shot with red. The tip of her tail hammered against the ground, shattering the paving stones with each blow from the iron-hard appendage.
When she was fighting the Fox Spirit earlier, Su Liyan had been worried something would happen to Lu Yuan. She had mobilized all her vital energy from the very beginning, causing her temperament to become exceptionally volatile.
In truth, Su Liyan could sense that Lu Yuan was right beside her, so she would never completely lose her reason.
When Su Liyan was fighting the Fox Spirit and Lu Yuan came running from afar, she had regained enough of her senses to warn him.
But this was no time to relax. Su Liyan could clearly sense a flying Xingzi following behind Lu Yuan.
Only after this threat was dealt with and the danger had passed could Su Liyan return to normal and become his pampered little woman again.
’Anything that threatens my man must die!’
In that instant, the newly arrived Flying Corpse hovered before them. As the fog cleared, its gaze fell upon the limp, unconscious form of the Fox Spirit.
This thousand-year-old Flying Corpse already possessed sentience. Looking at the Snake Woman before it, it knew it was no match for her.
Relying on its Void Body, the Flying Corpse planned to slip away before the Snake Woman noticed it.
The enraged Su Liyan glanced at Lu Yuan. Her determined gaze seemed to say, "I’m here. Don’t be afraid!"
Su Liyan patted Lu Yuan’s shoulder.
The pat was so forceful that Lu Yuan felt like his shoulder blade had been shattered. Luckily, his body was in fantastic shape.
"Trying to run? Not without my permission!" Su Liyan planted her tail on the ground, the powerful muscles within supporting her entire body, much like a kangaroo’s strong tail.
Lu Yuan looked up at Su Liyan, who now towered more than a meter over him. It looked as if her body was suspended in mid-air.
Watching his wife, who looked like a War God, he thought she was the epitome of cool.
’If only I could float too.’
With a push from her tail, Su Liyan launched her entire body into the air.
She soared high into the air, far above the Flying Corpse.
Lu Yuan looked up at his wife and couldn’t help but yell, "Honey, fuck it up!"
Lu Yuan was ecstatic. His wife was always full of surprises. She could fly so high! No, wait, she could *jump* that high.
The Flying Corpse looked up at the Snake Woman soaring high above. She had actually flown higher than it could.
The Flying Corpse’s flight altitude was limited; it couldn’t just fly as high as it pleased.
The Flying Corpse now knew that she could see it.
In her atavistic form, Su Liyan’s power had skyrocketed, and her eyes could perceive all things incorporeal.
This Void Body Xingzi naturally couldn’t escape her sight.
Seeing how powerful she was, the Flying Corpse turned to flee.
The tables had turned in an instant.
The Snake Woman’s oppressive aura made the Flying Corpse recall its life before death, a time when it ran freely through sunlit meadows.
This Void Body Flying Corpse had a tragic past; it had been wrongfully killed in its mortal life.
After death, it became a zombie and cultivated its way up to a Flying Corpse. Just as it was about to evolve into a Wandering Corpse, it was ganged up on and destroyed by several Grand Celestial Masters.
That was how it became a Void Body, forever stuck at the level of a Flying Corpse, unable to ever advance to a Wandering Corpse.
Su Liyan didn’t care about any of that. If something harmed her man—or even just frightened him—she would never let it off easy.
Su Liyan shaped her hand into a claw. Aided by the gravity of her freefall, she brought it down on the Flying Corpse’s head.
The Flying Corpse refused to believe her claw could harm it in the slightest. ’I’m a Void Body,’ it thought. ’Physical attacks are useless against me.’
Even so, the Flying Corpse subconsciously raised its hands to block.
With a single strike of her claw, Su Liyan obliterated the Flying Corpse, reducing it to dust.
The Technique Su Liyan had channeled into that claw possessed a destructive power of its own. No matter what state her opponent was in, they would be unable to withstand it.
Seeing this, Lu Yuan leaped into the air and cheered, "Honey, from now on, I’m your number one fan!"
