Xue Yunrou spoke with cold certainty, "This person feared being identified by their writing. It’s likely soone I know."
Li Xuan’s heart sank. He looked around and quickly followed Xue Yunrou’s line of sight, "Yunrou, were you looking at these earlier?"
In the gaze of the Tao-protecting Eyes, it could be seen that in the corner of the wall ahead, so moss was growing, along with several tiny holes.
"What is that? Why is there moss here?"
It seed strange to Li Xuan that moss, which typically only exists in damp and cold areas, should be present in the teahouse located next to the Confucius Temple in Nanjing, a place usually bustling with visitors and custors.
Yue Qianqian looked puzzled as she saw nothing unusual.
"I thought sothing was off about this moss, so I prepared in advance." Xue Yunrou explained while pointing to her side.
At this mont, twelve purple talismans hovered around her.
Between these talismans, thin streaks of electricity flickered and jumped around, linking each talisman to another, like a miniature altar.
Xue Yunrou then made a Taoist hand seal, casting a layer of green luminescence in Yue Qianqian’s eyes, "Qianqian, with your extensive knowledge, take a closer look if you can."
Yue Qianqian scanned her surroundings and regained her color. The effect of Xue Yunrou’s ’Shenyanguan’ was much stronger than her ’Mini Divine Eyes.’ It allowed her to discern the truth of everything around her. The blood handprint on her shoulder didn’t exist at all.
Then Yue Qianqian looked at the moss Li Xuan had ntioned and said with furrowed eyebrows, "That substance is the illusory moss! It can enhance the power of Illusion Techniques and amplify people’s inner fears."
She now realized why she had reacted as she did earlier. She looked serious, however, and warned, "Generally, this kind of illusory moss accompanies the wood-type big demons. I’m afraid there’s more to this teahouse than just a simple house ghost."
At that instant, everyone heard a loud ’boom’ as the floor around them was lifted by a trendous force. Nurous wooden vines suddenly sprouted from every corner like lively little snakes flood in from all directions.
The vines blanketed the sky, surrounding the group within seconds.
"I knew it!" Xue Yunrou sneered coldly, and the twelve purple talismans imdiately burst into a trendous wave of thunder, enveloping the entire floor.
Wherever the lightning passed, the vine snakes either burned into flas or were blasted into ashes.
Furthermore, several extrely sharp Wind Blades spiraled around the group like a propeller, cutting and grinding the vine snakes into scraps.
But right when Xue Yunrou prepared to deal with the source of the vine snakes, a beam of black-white light suddenly shone down from above.
Li Xuan, who had been alert and protecting Xue Yunrou, imdiately slashed his blade at the light beam. But the beam of light unexpectedly split around the blade, then recombined behind it and blasted Xue Yunrou.
"Great Yuanci Yinyangniluan Divine Light?"
Yue Qianqian imdiately changed her expression: "Colonel, keep an eye on Sister Xue, this divine skill from the Taoism tradition is designed to demolish Taoist techniques."
The Great Yuanci Yinyangniluan Divine Light was specialized in breaking all kinds of Taoist techniques, disrupting and making formations unstable by utilizing Yuan magnetism and the chaos of Yin and Yang.
However, if it hit a person, it will also have certain disruptive effects.
In Yue Qianqian’s eyes, the power of the incoming ’Great Yuanci Yinyangniluan Divine light’ wasn’t very strong, and any spell cultivator with profound cultivation could resist it.
But Xue Yunrou was just advancing in her cultivation, a peak mont of intense change in her Shenpo and unstable mana.
Even though the ’Great Yuanci Yinyangniluan Divine Light’ was not really powerful, it was extrely dangerous for Xue Yunrou’s current state.
Sure enough, in the next mont, Xue Yunrou moaned. Her mana beca chaotic in that mont. The raging thunder and multitude of Wind Blades, like electricity cut off, vanished in an instant.
Without a second thought, Yue Qianqian prepared to cast an Invocation Spell. However, the mont the thought occurred to her, several wooden vines wrapped around her, pulling her down with unimaginable force.
Beneath her, a deep pit- seemingly bottomless- had erged in the first floor of the teahouse.
With a slash of his blade, Li Xuan hacked away most of the wooden vines that entangled Xue Yunrou and Yue Qianqian, but couldn’t completely stop the vines from dragging the two won towards the pit.
Not only the two won, but both Peng Fulai and Zhang Yue were entangled and were falling deep into the pit due to the pull of nurous vine snakes.
Only Luo Yan was unhard. Her nine whips were invincible, their shadows sweeping away everything in their path. As for the Fumo Vajra, the vine snakes were simply not strong enough to restrain it. A little effort by the big guy broke all the vines that entwined him.
"Luo Yan, save them!"
Li Xuan controlled his blade and sent a flash of lightning towards the pit below. Luo Yan’s two long whips suddenly stretched out to over thirty feet, grappling with the vine snakes pulling Peng Fulai and Zhang Yue.
But the power of the vine snakes was trendous, and Luo Yan seed to be losing ground, as she was pulled and fell from the second floor. However, her pull greatly slowed down the speed at which Peng Fulai and Zhang Yue were being dragged.
At that mont, Li Xuan, utilizing the Unsettling Divine Thunder, was rushing after Xue Yunrou and Yue Qianqian. His speed was far faster than the pull of the vine snakes.
