CHAPTER 620: 114 CHAPTER 6

The kindly-faced Yu Xuzi made a sound: "Thank you... for liberating me..."

Run Sheng raised the shovel and continued to smash it towards Yu Xuzi.

"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Yin Meng came over, she did not participate in the attack, but prepared to throw talisman paper, ready to assist Run Sheng when Yu Xuzi’s expression changed again.

Tan Wenbin, on the other hand, was hurriedly pushing all the talisman papers on his body with the Seven-star Hook, and with each push, an explosion sounded from Yu Xuzi’s body.

But he was enjoying it too much, and soon, the inventory of talisman papers on Tan Wenbin was depleted.

He wanted to ask his companions for some talisman papers, but seeing Yin Meng on full alert and Run Sheng’s shovel nearly smoking from the speed, he really felt embarrassed to speak up.

Turning his head, he looked towards Li Zhiyuan and found that the youth had no intention of joining the battle from the start.

Tan Wenbin felt something, stood up straight, and patted the dust off his body: I still need to learn from Yuanzi, to be steady.

Now, with every smash of Run Sheng’s shovel, scales would splash off from Yu Xuzi’s body.

The more he smashed, the more scales flew off, and soon thick layers accumulated all around.

These scales would continuously grow from Yu Xuzi’s body and automatically go to block the injured spots.

The kindly-faced Yu Xuzi, with a calm face, clenched his fists, as if struggling with something deep within his heart.

As long as the hateful face did not appear, there was no danger, and Run Sheng could smash freely.

Finally, the scales did not grow back as fast, the coverage that used to cover half of the body began to shrink.

After continuing to smash, the scales on Yu Xuzi’s body were gradually left only palm-sized.

Run Sheng grabbed the shovel with both hands and smashed down forcefully again!

"Bang!"

The last bit of scales shattered, leaving Yu Xuzi completely clean.

"Crack!"

And the Yellow River Shovel in Run Sheng’s hands finally broke into two under the burden.

Run Sheng staggered backward, his muscles cramping in several places.

For the first time, he was hitting someone and nearly knocked the strength out of himself.

Even with the support of the sixteen Qi Seas in his body providing power, he still felt powerless.

It can’t be helped, in a fight, there’s always give and take, or if a hit doesn’t succeed, look for another opportunity, but in this situation of continuously striking right in front of someone, it’s always full force without a chance to breathe.

Below his feet were thick fish scales, and the soles of his shoes were somewhat slippery on them.

Run Sheng couldn’t imagine, if Yu Xuzi had always shown his hateful face, how difficult it would have been to knock out so many scales from his body... it could almost be said to be nearly impossible.

Because the hateful-faced Yu Xuzi would resist.

Unless Xiao Yuan also came to help him.

Run Sheng looked back and noticed Xiao Yuan was only now slowly walking over.

Li Zhiyuan, as he approached, continuously kicked up scales, like walking on a snowy road in winter.

The kindly-faced Yu Xuzi lay on the ground, weakly raising his hands and said:

"I never thought I could have such a clean day."

Li Zhiyuan walked up to Yu Xuzi, squatted down, and helped him up by the shoulders, saying: "Daoist, you have worked hard."

Yu Xuzi looked at Li Zhiyuan and said, "It’s all right, it hasn’t caused a disaster, it just controlled me."

"Hmm, thank you, Daoist, for your timely warning."

"Roar!"

From the direction of the village, there came the furious roar of the Big Fish, with a thick sense of unwillingness, and the roar was getting closer, as if it was rushing over.

Yu Xuzi turned to look and showed a relieved smile:

"This is my mission, as well as my destiny, you all go, I will stay here to suppress it, never let it have the chance to harm people again.

The way it taught you to leave is correct, follow that ’creek’, according to the stone marks, you can leave this place, but cannot take that lantern."

"Daoist..."

"Quickly leave, if not, it might be arriving soon, you all have severed its hope of leaving through this opportunity, it’s raging now, I will help you block it."

This scene was incredibly tragic and touching.

Run Sheng, Yin Meng, and Tan Wenbin were all deeply moved.

One could say, any normal person at this moment would be emotionally stirred.

However, at this time, they would habitually look at Xiao Yuan again.

Until they saw a slightly playful smile on Xiao Yuan’s face.

All three had the same thought in their heart: Damn, moved too soon!

"Daoist, I have memorized everything on the stone slab, can we leave without taking it?"

"It’s better to take it with us, it’s safer, to avoid any mistakes."

"But Daoist, it’s too heavy, I don’t want to carry it."

"Thump thump thump!"

The vibrations within the village were getting closer, the Big Fish would appear soon.

Yu Xuzi’s facial muscles also trembled with the vibrations.

His gaze grew heavy, his expression darkening.

Not a hateful face, but no longer kindly either.

"Young friend, what are you talking about?"

"I am saying..."

The position of Li Zhiyuan’s hands, if observed through the Underworld perspective, showed two dense masses of Karmic Fire rising.

And his hands, before, had been resting on Yu Xuzi’s shoulders.

The Karmic Fire began spreading from the young man’s hands toward Yu Xuzi’s entire body.

"Ah!!!"

Yu Xuzi let out a scream.

The last one to experience this kind of burning by Karmic Fire was Granny Yu.
