Chapter 446: You are confused, my friend

"Ah! Ya!"

A chorus of screams came from the pit.

Small yaoguai kept rushing out of the pit, covered in fire, but the fox was already hanging upside down in the air, and the closest thing to them was that big mouth spitting golden flames.

The small yaoguai didn't stop, and the flames didn't stop.

The screams in the pit didn't stop either.

How could these yaoguai withstand the solar spiritual fire of a six-tailed fox?

Before long, the screams subsided, and the pit also quieted down.

I don't know if the small yaoguai had been burned to ashes, but in any case, there were no more yaoguai rushing out of the pit.

The fox then landed on the "ground."

It only saw its four feet standing on a big tree, stepping on the straight trunk of the big tree as if on flat ground. It lowered its head to carefully examine the ground below that was emitting both flames and red light, and then tilted its head to carefully observe if there was any other movement in the forest.

For a long while, the forest remained quiet.

The fox then looked up—

Above, the pine tree extended diagonal branches, like a sloping lawn. The Daoist was sitting cross-legged there, still holding a snow lotus petal in his hand. The thick fog made his figure look elusive.

"You can come down!"

The fox said to the top.

"Peng..."

The Daoist above disappeared.

But a clear breeze blew down along the forest, blowing the fog, and re-condensed the Daoist's figure below.

"Thanks to you, if it weren't for you, how would I have handled it?"

"Thanks to me!"

"I rely entirely on you for protection."

"Right!"

Lin Jue smiled slightly and sat still.

"Why did they come to harm us?" the fox didn't understand.

"Maybe they wanted to steal our snow lotus flower." Lin Jue replied. "I'm guessing."

"Then hide it quickly!" the fox urged immediately.

"Is it useful to hide it now?"

"Is it useless?"

The fox withdrew its gaze and turned to look at the forest.

"Hu..."

Another fire was lit.

"Be careful tonight, let's leave early tomorrow morning." Lin Jue said.

"We can leave at night too!"

"We won't leave at night."

Lin Jue reached out to warm himself by the fire.

Although the fox was puzzled, it also sat down beside him.

However, before long, there was movement in the forest.

The fox turned its head for the first time.

With a "Hu"—

In the mist, several figures rushed out.

The fox also didn't hesitate and rushed toward them.

Waiting for the thick fog to thin, it was clear that they were four warriors with different appearances and attire, one with Central Plains appearance and three with Western Regions appearance. Their bodies were withered and black, their expressions stiff, and they held different weapons.

One person thrust a silver light with a long spear.

The fox's movements were agile. Not only did it avoid the long spear, but it also stepped on the shaft of the long spear to move forward.

One person slashed a curved blade like the moon horizontally.

The fox stepped on the long spear and jumped lightly, avoiding the curved blade.

Another long sword slashed at it.

Unexpectedly, this fox could also borrow force in the air. It turned with the wind and actually brushed past the long sword, not even a single hair was touched.

Finally, there was one person who raised the flail in his hand high and smashed it at the fox.

But only heard a "Peng"—

The fox that was rushing toward him suddenly became larger, becoming the size of a house. He was rushing toward this fox, but in a trance, his eyes were filled with white, as if he were rushing toward a white wall. In the snow-white, there was a huge fox face. Only then did he realize he was rushing toward this behemoth.

However, it was already too late!

The fox opened its bloody mouth, bit him, raised its head high, and smashed down hard with its weight, then shook its head and threw him far away, into the thick fog, and he couldn't be seen.

"Pah! So smelly!"

The three figures in front crossed paths with the previous one and stopped, turning to look.

They just happened to see the fox open its mouth and spit hard:

A yellow smoke rushed toward them!

The yellow smoke was too fast, the fox's mouth was too big, and with the thick fog as cover, they couldn't avoid it at all.

Lin Jue watched as the warriors holding curved blades and long swords on both sides were about to fall to both sides, as if they wanted to roll and dodge, and the person in the middle was holding a long spear wanting to thrust, but their movements became slower and slower, stiffer and stiffer, until finally they maintained a strange posture and fell straight to the left, right, and front on the ground.

At this time, they had turned into stone statues.

"Dried corpses? Human puppets? Or something else?" Lin Jue examined them carefully. "Seeing people have treasures, they don't even ask, directly coming to steal and rob, and even wanting to kill. It is indeed the style of evil ways."

As soon as the words fell, a red light flashed in the forest.

Several fire dragons rushed over from different directions! The sources of the fire dragons were high and low, all floating in the mid-air of the thick fog, gathering toward the person and the fox in the middle.

Silently, the person and the fox chose two directions.

The Daoist's figure sank into the ground.

The fox turned into white light and rushed toward the sky.

When the flames gathered, the person and the fox were no longer in their original places.

The fox even had extra thoughts. While rushing straight to the sky, it rotated its body, aiming at these spitting faces, and swept its six tails and claws toward these yaoguai.

A claw swept under a spitting head, but it grabbed nothing.

A tail also swept under a spitting head, and also swept nothing.

Instead, a claw slapped a head from bottom to top, and with a "Pa," it suddenly knocked it away, rolling in the air while spitting flames, flying into the distance like a wind-fire wheel. "Ying?"

The fox then reacted and remembered this thing.

When it was in the palace before, it had seen people who knew this spell. They only had heads and no bodies, using their ears as wings to fly and spit fire.

Just at this moment, the fire dragons had already turned and swept toward it.

The fox stepped on the pine forest with its toes and jumped forward, flashing and moving in the forest, dodging these fire pillars.

The fire pillars followed it, swaying and crossing in the forest.

Before long, the fox's figure disappeared.

Until a chill struck—

"Hu!"

Cold white smoke descended from the sky like a waterfall, covering them all inside. The temperature of this cold air was extremely low, and as long as it touched, even the pine trees were instantly covered with ice crystals.

!

The fire pillars stopped abruptly, and the heads fell one after another.

There wasn't even a scream.

The fox turned its head instantly and looked into the distance.

In the darkness, there were still a few heads, flapping their ears, all with yaoguai faces, looking at it in horror.

The fox's ears moved slightly, its eyes flashed, and then it stepped on the treetops, and without hesitation, turned into a white shadow and chased after them.

Those heads also turned and fled quickly.

The mist quickly swept past its side, as if it could see countless fine particles, and the pine forest quickly retreated. Its face gradually became covered with dew, constantly hitting pine needles and rubbing against pine branches. They couldn't care about that either, just desperately shuttling through the forest, turning and flying urgently, avoiding pine trees, choosing harder paths, passing through obstacles, and fleeing constantly.

But the fox followed closely.

At the same time, in the original forest.

Lin Jue had just manifested his figure when a sound of wind broke through the air:

"Pu!"

A pine tree beside him was directly shot through.

"Hand over the thousand-year snow lotus flower!"

The accent was a bit strange, and the pronunciation was also very strange.

Lin Jue looked in the direction of the sound and waved his sleeves.

A clear breeze blew away the thick fog, vaguely distinguishing two figures.

One figure had elk horns, was a zhang tall, and held a very large broadsword in his hand. There was also one not even as tall as a person, delicate and slender. It was actually a very beautiful woman with a round face and red eyes, holding a bow made of wood, and the string was already pulled, but no arrow could be seen, as if there was only air in the middle.

"The two of you are..."

"Don't delay time!" The human-shaped elk danced and whirled the broadsword in his hand. "Hand over the thousand-year snow lotus flower!"

At the same time, the female yaoguai had already released the bowstring.

"Shu!"

Lin Jue leaned back sideways, only feeling a cold wind break through the air, invisible and shadowless, flying past his cheek.

He thought they really wanted to say two sentences to him.

It turned out to be just a means to attract his attention.

"Interesting..."

Suddenly, a dazzling golden light exploded, blinding them so they couldn't open their eyes. In just a moment of distraction, the Daoist had turned into a clear breeze and disappeared directly in front of them.

Only a handful of beans were scattered, flying in the sky.

With several sounds of breaking through the air, the energy was continuous, but they all hit the pine-leaf-covered grass and the bonfire, hitting deep pits, shattering the firewood, and splashing sparks.

The clear breeze went to the sky!

The female yaoguai quickly raised her long bow and pulled it to the sky extremely fast.

However, she didn't shoot two arrows before she stopped and turned to look forward.

In the forest at night, under the illumination of the fire, that handful of beans had already turned into twelve flying swords, flashing with cold light.

I don't know where a voice came from:

"Eliminate them."

The twelve flying swords hummed and changed direction.

"Shu shu shu..."

This was a more urgent and sharp sound of breaking through the air.

The twelve flying swords pulled out silver light fine lines in the fog, arriving in front of them almost in an instant.

The two yaoguai immediately widened their eyes.

That elk blocked in front of the female yaoguai for the first time, raised his arm to cover his eyes with his left hand, and waved the broadsword with his right hand, wanting to slash these silver light fine lines.

However, when he waved the sword, flying swords had already arrived in front of him.

"Pu pu pu..."

Several swords passed through his body, bringing a trace of coolness.

Several other swords bypassed him and flew into the long night of the forest behind him.

Only the last sword collided with the broadsword.

But it was hard to say whether the broadsword slashed the flying sword or the flying sword stabbed the broadsword. In short, in his eyes, his broadsword was cut into by this flying sword as if cutting wood, and more than half of the wide blade was directly cut into, and the flying sword stopped, as if stuck on the blade.

Immediately after, coolness came from behind.

Only then did he know—

It turned out that those flying swords that bypassed him went here.

In an instant, the two yaoguai generals fell softly back to back.

"You are confused, my friend!" Lin Jue sat cross-legged on the top of the pine tree, shook his head, and looked at the forest. "Did you really think I only relied on the fox for protection?"

The twelve flying swords stopped in mid-air, motionless.

"There are more ahead, please eliminate them."

As soon as the words fell, the flying swords shot into the darkness, searching for yaoguai on their own, piercing through their hearts.

Lin Jue turned into a clear breeze and disappeared.

Those flying heads should have gone back.

They led the way for the fox, and the fox led the way for him. He expected to find the yaoguai king here.
