Chapter 90: Strong Enemy

~8 min read 1,450 words

Inside the school, Lin Zhengfeng had just killed a walking corpse when more appeared behind him.

Zhong Fabai also saw the shadows of walking corpses at the window behind them; the walking corpse smashed the glass directly, wanting to charge in, but was immediately stabbed to death by Zhong Fabai with a peach wood sword.

He immediately shouted: "I'm clear on this side, hurry and leave through here!"

Yu Bixin asked in surprise: "Xiaobai, how are you guys...?"

Zhong Fabai said urgently: "Oh, Teacher, hurry and take the others away!"

Zhong Bang hurriedly helped a child up and shouted: "Bixin, take the children and go first!"

"Awoo!"

More walking corpses flooded into the classroom; Lin Zhengfeng hurriedly stepped forward and brandished his peach wood sword to force the walking corpses back, while Zhong Fabai also stepped up to help, a peach wood sword in one hand and a spirit talisman in the other, temporarily blocking several walking corpses.

"Awoo!"

However, two walking corpse squad leaders were extremely formidable; they held katana swords and slashed, fighting Lin Zhengfeng and Zhong Fabai to a standstill.

Added to the constant siege by the surrounding walking corpses, Lin Zhengfeng and Zhong Fabai were also injured.

Zhong Fabai shouted loudly: "Brother Feng, I can't hold on much longer!"

As he spoke, he hurriedly raised his sword to block a slash from a squad leader, retreating repeatedly.

Lin Zhengfeng also felt the strain; he hurriedly kicked a walking corpse, used the momentum to backflip out of the encirclement, and shouted: "A Bai, retreat!"

Zhong Fabai quipped: "Brother Feng, next time say so earlier!"

He hurriedly stepped on a walking corpse and used the force to jump out.

The two quickly retreated to the window.

But there were still quite a few children who hadn't left.

Seeing the critical situation, Yu Bixin hurriedly stepped forward and began to sing a ballad, and those walking corpses immediately fell into memories of homesickness.

Zhong Bang hurriedly carried a child and sent them out the window, and Lin Zhengfeng and Zhong Fabai also exited through the window, after which they stuck several spirit talismans at the door and in the corridor.

Finally, only Yu Bixin remained, slowly retreating while singing, and climbed out through the window.

Seeing Yu Bixin run out, Zhong Fabai hurriedly said: "Teacher, stop singing, run!"

The group immediately protected the children and ran toward the outside of the school.

The walking corpses instantly woke up and chased out of the classroom, but their path was blocked by several spirit talismans.

The two squad leaders immediately brandished their swords to slash.

"Boom, boom, boom!"

After a series of explosions, the spirit talismans shattered.

"Chase!"

"Awoo!"

A group of walking corpses immediately chased out of the school.

Just as Yu Bixin and the others ran out of the school, they saw Inspector Ke arriving with a group of detectives.

The walking corpses had just rushed out of the school when they were hit by gunfire.

Even when their bodies were hit by bullets, the walking corpses only stumbled a few times before continuing forward.

"Die!"

Sakai stepped through the air and flew over, brandishing the katana in his hand; a wave of yin energy struck, hitting several detectives, who fell to the ground dead on the spot, while the detectives behind them were also knocked over by the blast wave.

Inspector Ke said in great alarm: "Retreat quickly, retreat quickly!"

Chen Jiang happened to arrive and saw Lin Zhengfeng and Zhong Fabai; he didn't even have time to ask, as Sakai had already killed his way over.

He immediately drew his Seven-Star Copper Sword and swung a strike, clashing with Sakai; Sakai retreated one step, while he retreated three steps before steadying himself.

"Daoist Chen, I have come to assist you!"

Mao Xiaofang shouted loudly and immediately drew his peach wood sword to come and assist.

Chen Jiang steadied his mind, took out his Eight Trigrams Mirror, and coordinated with Mao Xiaofang, pressing toward Sakai from the left and right.

Sakai held his katana with both hands, slashing left and right, and countless waves of yin energy swept over; Chen Jiang and the others hurriedly defended.

"Boom, boom, boom!"

The clash of the two sides' magical power directly caused an explosion, and everyone nearby was blown to the ground.

Lin Zhengfeng hurriedly shouted: "Hurry and go, don't stay here!"

Inspector Ke and the other ordinary people immediately retreated with the children.

Meanwhile, Sakai had already clashed with Chen Jiang and Mao Xiaofang several times, firmly holding the upper hand.

Chen Jiang immediately raised his hand to point the Eight Trigrams Mirror toward the moon, absorbing the power of purification, and then shone it at Sakai.

Sakai hurriedly brandished his katana, and a large amount of yin energy gathered to block the golden light emitted by the Eight Trigrams Mirror.

Chen Jiang hurriedly exerted his power and shouted: "Golden light appear quickly, cover and protect the true practitioner! By the order of the law, act immediately!"

The golden light erupted instantly, slowly forcing Sakai back.

Sakai roared, and yin lightning actually appeared all around his body.

He held the sword with both hands and unleashed a diagonal slash from shoulder to hip, and several bolts of yin lightning rushed toward Chen Jiang.

"Not good!"

Chen Jiang hurriedly exerted his power, and a phantom image of an Eight Trigrams appeared on his Heaven and Earth Patchwork Robe.

"Bang!"

"Wah!"

Chen Jiang was directly sent flying and spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.

This change in the blink of an eye caught even Mao Xiaofang off guard.

He hurriedly stepped forward to fight Sakai, buying time for Chen Jiang.

Mao Xiaofang parried several strikes with Sakai, wielding a peach wood sword in one hand and a copper coin sword in the other.

Sakai then performed a jumping slash; Mao Xiaofang hurriedly blocked with both swords, but Sakai seized the opportunity to slash his shoulder.

Mao Xiaofang let out a muffled groan and quickly backflipped to gain some space, then dropped both swords, pulled a handful of small Five Emperors coins from his pocket, and threw them at Sakai.

Sakai immediately swung his blade and cleaved all the incoming Five Emperors coins in two.

Mao Xiaofang wanted to continue fighting, but the strange sensation at his wound made it difficult to carry on, and he dropped to one knee on the ground.

Just as Sakai was about to strike, Zhang Sheng, who had been watching the battle, gave a wink to Yatarō standing to the side.

Yatarō rushed out directly and slashed with his sword.

Sakai hurriedly parried the blow but was knocked back.

Feeling the pressure instantly, he dared not fight further, hurriedly summoned his subordinates to retreat, and ran off to search for the gold.

Chen Jiang, who had just stood up, saw Yatarō wearing golden armor and said joyfully, "Uncle Yatarō."

Yatarō stepped forward and said, "Ajiang, are you alright?"

Chen Jiang smiled and said, "Fortunately, the Patchwork Robe protected me; I only suffered some internal injuries and need a few days of recuperation."

He immediately looked at Mao Xiaofang to the side and asked, "Master Mao, how are you?"

Mao Xiaofang sat cross-legged on the ground, his face somewhat pale, and said, "I was wounded by Sakai's demonic blade; the dark energy is depleting the vital essence within my body. I must find a place of extreme light to heal."

Yang Feiyun hurriedly said, "Master Mao, I know a place where you can heal."

Zhong Bang hurriedly asked, "We have no way to deal with Sakai; what if Sakai commits atrocities during this time?"

Mao Xiaofang said helplessly, "I am powerless now; I can only rely on Daoist Chen."

Chen Jiang said with some shame, "With my abilities, I am no match for this Sakai either."

He looked at Yatarō and hurriedly said, "Uncle Yatarō, it was Martial Uncle who sent you, right?"

Yatarō spoke up, "The Lord is handling important matters and has no time to look after you for now, so he sent me to watch over you."

"Ajiang, you have grown up; you cannot rely on us for everything. This time, you must find a way to deal with Sakai yourself."

"However, I will control the situation so that it does not harm the innocent."

Upon hearing this, Mao Xiaofang understood the implication. However, he could not say anything, as it would not harm the innocent after all.

But in Yang Feiyun's view, such an approach was truly difficult to understand. Is this the attitude of an enlightened master toward the people of the world? This condescending attitude is truly hateful!
