Volume 2: Wu Enters Witchcraft Chapter 93: Transforming into a Python (New week, seeking recommendations!)
"Master, leaving Eagle Sir there doesn't seem quite right..." Su Jiao turned her head to look at Yue State, only to see a giant green and red serpent suddenly rising from the city, with nine pairs of wings on its back. Then, a deafening roar came from within the city, causing her to speak with some anxiety.
Ye Xue galloped his horse, laughing and saying: "Don't worry, Mr. Ying won't die that easily. We staying there would only be a burden to him, but leaving will actually allow him to show off his skills!"
In a few breaths, Gan Chai ran out of more than ten miles, with a speed that made people's eyes widen in amazement.
"Shaobao, you've finally escaped!"
Suddenly, two familiar figures darted out from the side of the road, blocking Gan Chai's path. Zhou Shiwen chuckled and said, "I knew you wouldn't be willing to serve as a personal soldier for that Eastern Emperor's general, so I've been waiting here for you."
Fang Chen smiled and said: "Brother Ye has managed to shake off Mr. Ying with the help of the Ruan family, congratulations are in order."
The two of them saw Ye Xu kill Lian Liangyi, so they knew that there would be a bloody battle in the city of Yue, and therefore slipped away early. Seeing Ye Xu galloping wildly on horseback, they jumped out.
Ye Xue reined in his horse and smiled, "Actually, with Mr. Ying's protection, I can be reckless and borrow others' hands to hone my skills and magic, fighting to nourish my fighting. Unfortunately, after causing a big disturbance in Yue State, Mr. Ying definitely won't let me do the same in other states and counties. He is moody, so it's better to leave him early."
He said this, and his heart felt a slight sense of regret.
In his heart, Mr. Eagle was still a very worthwhile person to get along with, the only pity being that Ye Xu currently didn't have the qualifications to get along with him and was merely a pawn used to coerce the Lord of the Manor, Ye Si Dao, so Ye Xu had him gotten rid of through the Luan family's hands.
Suddenly, the three of them felt a stir in their hearts and looked up to see a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy in a yellow shirt walking towards them from the north of the official road, his footsteps extremely fast.
That young man in yellow saw them, and he too was slightly stunned. He hastily conjured up a quiet and majestic black jade tower, with an aura like jade enveloping him, cautiously looking at them.
Ye Xu and Zhou Shiwen also raised their own jade towers, lowered their yuanqi canopy, and protected themselves.
The young man in yellow stood still at a distance, slightly cupped his hands and said: "Senior brother, may I pass?"
"Senior brother, after you." Ye Xuan pulled on the reins of his horse, stopping at the side of the road and smiling.
Zhou Shiwen and Fang Chen also stood aside one after another.
The young man in the yellow shirt bowed his head in thanks, walked across the street from the other side, and didn't disperse the aura of the yuanqi canopy until he had gone more than a hundred meters away. He then put away the jade building and strode towards Yuezhou.
Ye Xusansan also successively withdrew to the Jade Building, continuing northward. Su Qiaojiao looked at them in confusion and curiously asked: "Young Master, do you know that person just now? Why did you call him Shixiong?"
Ye Xuan shook his head and smiled, "I left Liu Zhou for the first time, how would I know him? This is an unwritten tradition among wizards. If you encounter another wizard, you should call each other 'Shixiong' to show that you have no malicious intentions. When I left home, my elder brother taught me some common sense, which was about these etiquette for traveling in the Jianghu, so as not to cause unnecessary misunderstandings with others."
Zhou Shiwen and Fang Chen also received similar teachings when they left home.
"Shao Bao, that person just now also knew how to use the yuanqi mask's technique. Could it be that this technique isn't exclusive to just us three?" Zhou Shiwen had thought that the yuanqi mask was a unique and unparalleled skill, but unexpectedly, he met a strange wu on the road who was also wearing a large mask shaped like a bronze bell, and immediately became suspicious.
Ye Xuan chuckled and said in a muffled tone, "I'm not entirely sure why that young man understands the yuanqi shield either. Brother Zhou should probably ask him himself."
At first, in Eagle Gorge, Ye Xuan taught them the Yuanqi Mask technique, thereby obtaining the first choice right and multiple selection power in their harvests, taking advantage of many benefits.
He naturally didn't dare tell them that the yuanqi hood and the jade tower's collection of objects were all street stall goods, and almost every wizard outside knew these two methods.
Using yuanqi masks and Yulou to collect objects is almost a must-know for witches, but only in the remote area of Jiuli Miao did few people know these techniques.
"These two guys went north, if they saw Yuanqi masks were very common, all over the streets, most likely to find me to fight..."
Ye Xu turned his head and took a glance, then hastily urged his horse to gallop wildly, saying: "The people from the Luan family have caught up, let's hurry!"
Two people hastily turned their heads to look, and saw that from the direction of Yue State came a surge of murderous aura, spreading out in all directions. It was clear that the witches of the Luan family had been dispatched to search for Ye Xu's trail.
Zhou Shiwen and Fang Chen didn't dare to slack off, hastily following behind. After running for several miles, they finally came back to their senses: "The witch of the Luan family is chasing after Shaobao this kid, why are we running?"
That young man in yellow shirt soon met with the people of Ruan's family, and his face couldn't help but reveal a joyful expression. He said loudly: "Fifth Uncle, did you all come here specifically to welcome me?"
Ruan Tianming hastily stopped in his tracks, looked up and was slightly taken aback: "Liang Xi, how did you come back?"
"He suddenly stamped his foot and sighed: 'You're back late! If you had returned half an hour earlier, the Yan family would not have suffered such a great humiliation!'"
That yellow-shirted young man, Ruan Liang Xi, was the sixth son of the Ruan family and a genius of the Ruan family. Because of his exceptional talent, he was chosen by a demonic sect last year as a disciple. He hastily said, "Fifth Uncle, what's going on?"
Luan Tianming briefly recounted the story of Ye Xue blocking the door and killing Eagle Mr. in Yuezhou, causing Luan Liangxi to suddenly become furious, saying: "I just met three men and one woman on the road, one of whom was riding a horse, and it seemed like he was the Ye Shaobao you mentioned! If I had known earlier, I would have taken action and killed them all at that time!"
"Li Xing, don't underestimate your enemy, your second brother cultivated to the first rank of Guyuan and still died at his hands."
Lian Yu's face was proud and arrogant, smiling: "Fifth Uncle, I have been cultivating in the Gui Wang Sect for a year, now among my peers, there are hardly any opponents. Wanting to kill them is just a matter of flipping my hand!"
"No need to say more, hurry up and catch up with them, kill them all!" Yan Liangxi shouted.
The Wan family's sorcerers shouted in unison, jumping and flying towards the direction where Ye Xu and others had left. Wan Tianming left one of the sorcerers behind to inform Third Uncle Wan Gao Yi.
As soon as they started, the difference in their cultivation levels was immediately apparent. The high-ranking members of the Ruan family, who were of the same generation as Ruan Tianming, ran at the front, followed by Ruan Shifeng and other witches.
Among them, the most eye-catching is Lian Liangxi. His speed is not slower than that of Lian Tianming and others. His footsteps are steady, but a wave of water rises under his feet, and he rushes forward with the current!
"Li Xie indeed learned an astonishing skill in the Gui Wang Sect. If he had come a moment earlier, my Luan family would not only have avoided this humiliation but might even have been granted the title of Yue King and dominated Yue Prefecture!" Luan Tianming silently lamented to himself.
The withered wood rushed out for dozens of miles, and Ye Xuan turned his head to look back, only to see the Luan family's people getting closer and closer. If they were blocked by a master from the Luan family, none of them could escape at this moment.
He suddenly moved in his heart, and his palm pressed on the brain of Gan Chai Jiao. He observed the dragon, and a stream of dragon energy poured into the body of this thin horse!
Gan Chai Jiao originally could already rival a 9th-grade demonic beast, but after obtaining this vital energy, it was as if he had taken a tonic, letting out a long, mournful cry. His body suddenly burst forth with powerful forces, emitting a fierce and menacing aura, his speed increasing by several folds!
"Gan Chai Jiao is a hybrid of Jiao and horse, it seems that the dragon's aura is indeed useful for it!"
Ye Xuhui's heart was filled with joy, and his vital energy flowed like water into the body of Gan Chai Jiao. In his mind, he imagined a dragon, using his vital energy to transform the horse's body. Suddenly, a loud cracking sound came from the skinny horse's body, its skeleton growing wildly in an instant. Its body grew longer and longer, with strips of fur falling off, and scales the size of fingernails rapidly growing out from under its skin, a deep crimson color like blood!
These scales are not transformed from yuanqi, but are real scales, and even on the neck there are pieces of egg-sized scales growing in reverse!
Dragon's Reverse Scale!
In a few breaths, the horse's body grew to be one or two zhang (3.3-6.6 meters) in length, with scales like those of a jiaolong dragon, its body as long as a jiao, majestic and extraordinary, sweeping away its previous thin and weak appearance, galloping like flying, instantly leaving Zhou Shiwen and Fang Chen far behind!
Ye Xue reined in his horse and waited for the two to catch up.
Those two men mounted their horses without any courtesy. Zhou Shiwen clicked his tongue in surprise and laughed, saying: "Shaobao, are you selling this horse? I'll trade it with the Heavenly Silkworm Robe!"
"What's the use of having a magic cloak? If someone captures you and strips off your clothes, you'll still die just the same!"
Fang Chen sneered: "Shaobao, I'll trade you this horse for a Hundred Poisons Flag!"
