Thick green yin flas filled the sky and earth, and the gang wind, sharp as knives and spears, could blow a person’s skin and flesh to pieces. Xiaodao’s clothing had all turned to ashes, even the Owl Kiss Twin Blades hissed as if they couldn’t withstand it.
Xiaodao’s body was bathed in the drifting black flas, completely naked, with his three hairy legs particularly eye-catching.
Beneath his feet was a scorching, massive purple copper ball, surrounded by the dim wind and fire.
Roar!
The jade-green dragon body struggled and writhed within the wind and fire, with many of its scales damaged by the gang wind and yin fire, but for the mont it couldn’t quite handle it.
Whoosh!
The dragon head suddenly plunged downwards, snapping at Xiaodao’s head, but was blocked by the Owl Kiss Twin Blades.
Xiaodao was so angry that veins throbbed visibly, and although opening his mouth to speak would likely damage his throat from the gang wind and yin fire, Xiaodao couldn’t hold back, “Are you out of your mind? If we keep fighting like this, we’ll both end up before the judicial departnt’s grand hall!”
The jade dragon remained indifferent as it continued to fight Xiaodao with its teeth and tail, exhaling two streams of green mist from its nostrils, “I know you, you are Huo Tu. Let first see what you’re made of; if you’re not capable, you might as well die here.”
It turned out that this jade dragon body was Ao Ang, the thirteenth foster son of Golden Mountain Old Ancestor, who had mocked Hu San on Fulong Mountain that day, under the guise of delivering an invitation, seeking to trouble Xiaodao and Li Yan.
Xiaodao spat out a wad of saliva, which evaporated in mid-air. He no longer spoke but took out a small paper packet from his personal seal. The paper packet instantly burned to nothingness, and the object inside, resembling a bar of soap, exploded into rich black flas in an instant, with such power that it almost occupied half of the unknown space.
[Fight Rouge]
Culinary Skill·Starching
Empowered by the [Fight Rouge], the black culinary flas transford instantly into countless black and red Fight beasts, lively and lifelike, pouncing and biting at Ao Ang. Many more Fights opened their mouths wide, devouring the yin flas and gang wind in the air, and before long, the endless yin flas and gang wind within the protective talisman were completely devoured by the Fight beasts.
This black culinary fla, enhanced by the use of the “Mage Tool,” possessed trendous power, even greater than Li Yan’s “Dragon Mist,” and ca with many ingenious uses.
In the past, using the black culinary fla not only required Xiaodao to eat constantly but also affected his mind to a certain degree.
However, after the Huo Tu case, Xiaodao had mastered using the black culinary fla at will…
The [Fight Rouge] was Xiaodao’s final trump card, unknown even to Li Yan.
Having extinguished the yin flas and gang wind, Xiaodao leaped into the air, joined by nurous Fight beasts and struck at Ao Ang’s dragon horns with his Owl Kiss Blades.
Ao Ang was a Dragon Breed of the River Overturning type, capable of breathing wind and thunder, born in Jiujiang, and later adopted by the Golden Mountain Old Ancestor. Ao Ang was proud and arrogant, but undeniably strong in his own right. Even a great monster with two thousand years of cultivation would not be Xiaodao’s match under the power of the black culinary fla. Now that his ntality had suddenly broken through and he was trapped, he showed all his cards but still couldn’t suppress this Jiujiang Dragon Breed, and the fight was evenly matched.
Clang!
A bolt of purple lightning knocked the weapons from Xiaodao’s hands, and half of Ao Ang’s dragon horn also flew off.
Xiaodao had no ti to retrieve them, retreating continuously, with a hint of gloom in his heart.
He had never taken the Tiqi of the Xingyuan Division seriously, just thinking of striking first to gain the upper hand, but he ended up being caught in their sche and trapped in the talisman.
However, by carefully observing through the gang wind and yin fire, Xiaodao realized that this Taiyin Talisman was not absolutely indestructible. With so effort, he could escape.
Even Li Fukai, a noble Marquis, only had two Protective Talismans on him; surely these Tiqi who ca to capture him wouldn’t treat such precious talisman tools like candy beans. If he could escape, Xiaodao certainly had plenty of ways to deal with Pang’er and the others.
But who would have thought that this Dragon Breed monster, popping up out of nowhere, would go crazy? Being trapped like a turtle in a jar, it still insisted on fighting him to the death, infuriating Xiaodao to the point of smoking with anger.
“I say, we’ve never t. Why do you co at out of the blue wanting to fight to the death? There’s got to be a reason, right?”
“`
Cha Xiaodao didn’t possess Li Yan’s ability to speak the human tongue when eting people and the ghostly tongue when encountering ghosts in unfamiliar environnts; this awkward and archaic way of communication was already a challenge for him after so deliberation.
Ao Ang shook his broken dragon horn atop his head, not angry but laughing instead, “Good! Truly capable. You being tough on those hounds makes you reliable. My adoptive father wasn’t wrong about you.”
He picked up the dragon horn that had fallen on the huge bronze sphere with his claw, chewed it thoroughly in his mouth, and then spit out a flash of golden light. It wasn’t fast; Cha Xiaodao saw clearly that it was a sealed letter and caught it, only to realize it was an invitation from Golden Mountain Old Ancestor.
“I have been ordered by my adoptive father to deliver this invitation to you.”
Cha Xiaodao almost laughed at Ao Ang’s absurdity, who the hell delivers an invitation by fighting to death on the doorstep? That’s only asking one more question. If it were Governor Li, a high-level practitioner of Shouxie, you wouldn’t even have finished your first sentence before life and death were decided, ‘send your uncle’s invitation’.
“Golden Mountain Old Ancestor is sending an invitation?”
He pretended to be quite interested.
“You’ve been killing officials in Zhejiang, the Divine Emperor himself ordered your arrest; regardless of your past identity or any friends and relatives, they have nothing to do with you now. In the entire world apart from my Fulong Mountain’s Qianguang Cave, do you think anyone else dares to offer you shelter?”
Ao Ang truly lacked the art of conversation; with such a blunt approach, even those who intended to surrender would feel repelled. Most creatures in this world are like Ao Ang, subtly cunning and dark like Hu San, which is an extre rarity.
However, Cha Xiaodao had his own sches and wasn’t bothered by this.
Feigning silence, Ao Ang shook his head and transford into a half-human, half-monster figure with one half-dragon horn, an erald face, and dressed in the attire of a military officer with a brocade robe.
“Hey! You are capable and trustworthy, then you are one of us! Stop pondering, take my adoptive father’s invitation, and co back to Qianguang Cave with .”
“You’re monsters, I am human; once I enter Qianguang Cave, wouldn’t I just be a fish on the chopping block?”
In fact, saying this, Cha Xiaodao was still uneasy inside, in case Ao Ang, this bullish creature, grew impatient with his refusal and they ended up fighting again—that would be a foolish move. But as a wanted fugitive roaming at the ends of the earth, he couldn’t appear too eager either.
To his surprise, Ao Ang just laughed and shook his head: “Dragon Tiger Mountain is extrely domineering. In this world, all who do not practice the spells and talismans of Heavenly Master Tao are heretics. Amongst beasts, the odd are called monsters; amongst souls, the odd are called ghosts; amongst corporeal spirits, the odd are called Kui corpses; and amongst people, the odd are called demon people. They brand them all heretics. My adoptive father has thirteen, no, fourteen children, and three of them possess natural supernatural abilities. My father himself, a Scholar from the Jiajing fourth year, also known as Golden Mountain Taoist, is a true Yu Zhang person. He has embraced the principle of teaching without discrimination, hence he opened the cave dwelling and took us in, what worries could you have?”
“Golden Mountain Old Ancestor is human?! Isn’t he rumored to be one of the reclusive ‘Three Great Demons’?”
Upon hearing this, Cha Xiaodao was greatly surprised.
“Not just any weasel from a burrow can claim to be Jiuya Immortal, nor can catching a snow hedgehog warrant the title of Old Madam Bai. My adoptive father is human, yet a grand demon among humans! What’s the problem?!”
Cha Xiaodao’s mind raced with thoughts, but Li Yan’s conversation abruptly entered his mind.
“What’s the situation? Have you fallen for their trick?”
Cha Xiaodao laid out the current circumstances.
At that mont, Li Yan was facing off with Zhu Yan alongside Pang’er and a few others. Hearing Cha Xiaodao’s story, he inquired, “If you and Ao Ang joined forces, could you break out from this Protective Talisman?”
“By myself, I’d have a 70 to 80 percent chance. With Ao Ang, it would definitely be no problem, but the issue is how to wrap things up. You’re not telling you’re losing to a woman in an arm wrestling match, are you?”
“Rich as the Dragon Tiger Cavalier are, they’ve pulled out two legendary items in just this little bit of ti. Moreover, the Steward of Heavenly Authority Bureau possesses magic that can counter ‘A Fleeting Glimpse’; not to ntion his power, I can’t even assess his level of threat.”
Li Yan sidestepped the topic as he disturbed Zhu Yan’s focus with a surge of killing energy, which was actually a bit unfair, and he wasn’t too proud to discuss it with Cha Xiaodao.
“Let’s do this; I’ll tie up Zhu Yan, and have Pang’er and the rest leave first. You and Ao Ang just bide your ti and act like you can’t break through for a while. Once I give you the signal, and Pang’er is far enough away, you break the talisman and escape, then cunningly proceed to Fulong Mountain with Ao Ang.”
“Sounds good, let’s settle on that.”
