Chapter Sixteen: The Fierce Battle with Zi Lin's Assistance

  Purple scales assist each other

  Leaving a stunned face, Old Liu's parents and Old Ban. "Who is Old Liu?" Uncle Liu whispered. Old Ban awkwardly explained: "Hehe, it's Liu Yun, kids like to give nicknames." "Uh... let's go."

  I followed her scent all the way to a dilapidated temple, it seems that no one has worshiped here for a long time and it's already in ruins. But I am an orthodox Taoist, she dares to fight with me inside the temple, she really doesn't fear heaven or earth anymore.

  I threw out two talismans, locking the top of the broken temple. Today, we must determine the winner! I took out the seal first and pushed the door straight in. As soon as I entered, a sharp claw fiercely scratched towards my forehead!

  I hastily dodged to the left, or else this heavy blow would have crushed my skull! How despicable! I angrily shouted: "You first entangled and injured my friend, now your means are so despicable, you're still a guardian!"

  She listened to me speaking, and burst out laughing: "You young generation, don't you know that a soldier never tires of deceit? Haha, today grandma will teach you." Saying this, she wielded her weapon and chopped towards me. Hum, don't think I'm easy to bully, let's see how you escape today.

  As they spoke, the two began to fight, her weapon's technique was very strange, it seemed clumsy, but in her swing, it emitted waves of golden light! Seeing that golden light, if touched, the consequences would be severe.

  I then took out the seal, withstanding her heavy blow, and on the other hand, I protected the last two remaining talismans on my left and right sides to prevent being injured by that weapon. The two of us went back and forth, fighting fiercely.

  It wasn't until now that I realized my usual training was insufficient, and I didn't even have a suitable weapon at hand. Now I can only use the magical artifact Zhang Shu gave me to defend myself, but I'm completely unable to launch a powerful attack!

  There was only one last Vajra in the bag, which I had previously collected as a Buddhist artifact to save Youyou, and I didn't know if it could be used by me.

  Although she launched a fierce attack, there was a seal guarding her, and it was impossible to get close to me. She pointed at my forehead again and again, obviously wanting to take my life!

  I took advantage of the seal's resistance and hastily pulled out other magical tools from my bag, but all I could find were the Qingguang Mirror and the Vajra Pestle!

  Shouldn't there be other magical tools?! Have I forgotten?! At this point, it's too late to think about it anymore. The Golden Light Spell is getting dimmer and dimmer because she isn't a real demon after all, so the power of the spell will be greatly reduced. Otherwise, she should have been seriously injured just now in the house.

  I had no choice but to use the dead horse as a living horse doctor, and took out the Vajra pestle. This, this, this... I don't know how to use it! With a loud "Dong" sound! The two talismans have turned into ashes and disappeared without a trace!

  "Haha! Grandma, I'm not a demon! You're going to die!" She suddenly transformed into two! One entwined with the seal back and forth, the other bypassed the seal and rushed straight at me!

  It can't be that I'm really going to die, can it?! No way, I'll give it a desperate try! I threw the Vajra pestle at her with all my might, trying to use our sect's incantation to see if I could get any reaction. Xu Ming pays his respects! The Saint appears!!... With a loud "Dong" sound, the Vajra pestle flew straight towards the seal.

  She saw the opportunity was great, and directly thrust out her long sharp claws to attack me. On the other side, the Vajra pestle flew straight towards the seal. I fainted directly, could it be that these two were mutually exclusive! On this side, her claws, in my eyes' reflection, had become bigger and bigger!

  Suddenly, the golden pestle and seal touched, and amazingly began to merge together. The point where they joined emitted a brilliant light of ten thousand zhang!

  "Ah!" Just as she let out a loud shriek, she heavily crashed into the wall. I quickly got up and caught the magical artifact. Upon closer inspection, they had merged into a golden whip! As soon as I grasped it, I instantly felt my body's strength increase several times over.

  I turned to face her, hum! Now look at you still being arrogant! I swung my whip heavily, she hastily raised her weapon to block, with a loud crash! This one whip of mine actually broke her weapon into two pieces!

  I didn't expect this weapon to be so powerful! I glared at him: "If you agree with me now, and promise not to harm my friends or anyone else again, I'll let you go."

  "She scolded loudly: 'Negotiating terms with grandma? You're not ripe yet!' As she spoke, she shook her golden cloak and actually wanted to capture me!"

  I let out a loud roar: "Looking for death!" With all my might, I swung the golden whip towards her cloak, and with a swishing sound! Her cloak instantly turned into shreds, the remaining force of the golden whip went beyond the cloak and heavily struck her head!

  "Ah!" Along with her shrill cry, I saw that my golden whip had already left a bloody mark on her head! She saw she was no match for me and leapt towards the temple gate, crashing into it with a loud bang! As she collided with my Golden Light Talisman, sparks flew everywhere!

  However, she was blown away after all. After all, she wasn't a real demon, just a deviant behavior! I hurriedly took the golden whip and chased her out! When I walked out of the temple gate, she stood there, letting out a shrill laugh at me, and I was stunned!

  Her hand was clearly emitting a flashing green light! That's Yue! I shouted loudly: "Yue is it you?!"

  "Xu Ming! Don't worry about me! I originally sensed that you were in danger, took the Lingguang curse, and wanted to come and help you! But I couldn't enter this temple, so I was waiting outside, never expecting to be framed by this wicked woman! You take her life for me! Don't let her escape!" It's Yue's voice!

  "Haha! Ignorant little brat, I am also a guardian deity of a peaceful land. Although I may not be able to defeat the weapon in his hand, but for you wild and lonely spirits, I am your natural enemy. And with just one move, I can capture you!" As soon as she finished speaking, she increased her strength, and instantly, a muffled groan was heard from Yu.

  "This scoundrel is too detestable! How shameless! I said: 'What do you want to do?! You can't even defeat me in a fight, yet you want to use my friend as leverage and resort to despicable tactics! Are you not afraid of heavenly punishment?!'"

  She listened to my words, her eyes rolling around in a circle: "You don't need to say more! If you want to save him, throw your weapon at me now! Otherwise, I'll make him disappear into thin air!"

  That guy Yue is already in so much pain that he can only let out muffled groans, I'm furious inside, never thought that as a Guardian Deity, you would do something so despicable! But I definitely can't ignore Yue's situation!

  "I shouted loudly: 'Alright! I'll throw down the weapon now! You immediately release Yue!' After finishing speaking, I threw the golden whip far to one side."

  She saw that I had thrown away my weapon and knew that I no longer had any magic tools on me, so she swung her hand and threw Yue to one side. With a whoosh, she flew right in front of me, and just as her claw was about to come down and crush my skull.

  I closed my eyes and died for my friend, it was worth it.

  Suddenly! A loud noise came from my ear, I hurriedly opened my eyes! Only to see that the witch was lying not far away, spouting blood from her mouth, what happened? Why is my body so heavy?! I raised my head and looked up! Right in front of me was a huge snake head!

  "Ah! Help!" I shouted loudly!

  "Shut up! What are you yelling about? Useless little brat." The giant snake suddenly spoke, and its voice... I took a closer look, and its entire body was purple... the Purple Scaled King! How did it get here?! Has it already acknowledged me?! Come to save me?!

  It looked at me with a silly smile and actually snorted: "Hmph! Since you and I have already made a pact, I will definitely keep my promise."

  After finishing, it jumped from my body to the ground! With a loud thud, the ground actually made a dull sound, so heavy... It was just wrapped around me, so wouldn't my bones be broken?! I quickly touched all over my body and found that it didn't hurt either...

  He glanced at me with a sidelong glance, sneered, and his eyes stared straight at the witch: "Hei San Niang! You are also a fairy family, how can you do such an unscrupulous thing! First, you want to absorb people's yang energy, and then you don't listen to advice, and actually kill the Taoist door people! Do you know that heavenly power is difficult to offend!"

  That witch was initially terrified when she saw the Purple Scale King, but now she's not afraid at all. She stood up with a silly smile: "Purple Robe King, you're a powerful ruler, yet you dare to bully me, a woman? Don't you fear being ridiculed by others? Besides, I'm doing things in my own territory, what business is it of yours? Are you going to take the side of this yellow-haired kid?"

  Zi Lin Wang was furious after hearing that! I felt the evil energy overflowing from his body! How powerful is the evil energy on him?! I quickly ran to Wang Yue's side and protected him.

  "I thought you were a woman, I wanted to spare your life, but you are so stubborn and derelict in your duty! Today, I will take the place of heaven and mete out justice, lest you lose face as the guardian of the spiritual essence!" The Purple Scaled King said, his entire body radiating purple light, each scale flashing like a knife blade.

  The witch didn't say much, and directly said: "Let's do it!" Bang! She transformed into a huge grey-black rat! Only on her back could be seen, emitting a twinkling golden light.

  Suddenly, the golden-backed mouse she had transformed into charged towards the Purple Scaled King with a loud chirp and bit down fiercely. The Purple Scaled King didn't move an inch, waiting until it was almost upon him before flicking its tail! Boom! Sending the golden-backed mouse flying far away!

  She slowly got up from the ground, and I thought to myself: Why bother? You should be dignified and respected, why do you have to do this? Surrender already, she must have run out of tricks.

  I was thinking about it, and suddenly she vanished without a trace!
