Chapter 133: Joining Forces

Li Yu's expression was relaxed; not even a speck of sand had stained her robes.

In the capital, no one boasted that she was very powerful, but she could compose image-level lyrics when she was a young girl. Her Confucian talent was far from ordinary.

It was just that she was relatively low-key and generally wouldn't appear in everyone's field of vision.

Fear appeared in Huijie's eyes. Although he hadn't used his full strength just now, the fact that Li Yu had taken this blow so easily still gave him a shock.

"Have you seen peach blossom petals?"

Li Yu reached out her slender jade hand and pinched a petal falling from the sky. A large number of petals formed a ring, locking Huijie in place.

"This is?"

Huijie's face was incomparably ugly. He reached out, wanting to disperse the peach blossom ring, but he couldn't do it. Upon sensing that his abilities were restricted, he suddenly had the urge to flee.

This was an intuition.

He sensed danger from this woman before him.

Although he didn't know exactly what the peach blossom petals before him were, he could roughly guess that it was a very magical extraordinary power.

Li Yu's eyes focused. A scroll of blank paper appeared in front of Huijie. These papers rotated and surrounded him. With a "chi" sound of paper tearing, those scrolls of blank paper were torn apart by a huge force.

It was like a mirror that had suddenly been shattered.

Huijie's reaction had been fast, but he was still half a step too slow. He stood rooted to the spot as if struck by lightning. Pfft! He opened his mouth and spat out blood, his expression visibly withering.

Just one strike!

Li Yu, who is at the same realm, kills Hui Jie in an instant; this is her strength!

"You are even weaker than I imagined."

Li Yu had just finished speaking and was about to move to directly annihilate Huijie, but she suddenly stopped. She frowned and looked at the Buddha light barrier rapidly disappearing on her right side.

There, standing at some unknown time, was another monk dressed in the attire of the Black Lotus Sect. Judging from the black lotus mark on his robes, he was a Fourth Rank, Third Stage Buddha cultivator.

"Senior Brother Master Yi Hui, save me."

Hope appeared in Huijie's eyes as he begged the middle-aged monk for help.

Master Yi Hui was a monk with a thick beard. He looked to be only in his early thirties, but he gave people the feeling of a human beast—not just because he was tall and burly, but because of a certain aura.

The monk Master Yi Hui didn't look at his fellow disciple Huijie, but instead looked at Li Yu, pressing his hands together and saying, "Female benefactor, I hope you have been well."

Li Yu frowned and took two steps back. The monk Master Yi Hui before her was the evil monk she had encountered before. Her strength was indeed very strong, but she was a whole major rank lower. The only thing she could do was run away.

A difference of one rank meant a huge difference in strength, let alone a difference of a major rank.

Moreover, this monk Master Yi Hui had a certain opportunity, and his strength was far stronger than an ordinary Fourth Rank, Third Stage Buddha cultivator.

The monk Master Yi Hui was not in a hurry to attack. He walked slowly toward Huijie, who was slumped on the ground, and said, "You look like you are severely injured?"

Huijie bowed repeatedly and said, "Senior Brother Master Yi Hui, you have come just in time. This Great Zhou female scholar must have great luck. Don't let her run away."

"Of course."

The monk Master Yi Hui grinned and reached out a palm, slapping Huijie on the head. Huijie might have been on guard, but in his current state, he couldn't fight back at all.

"Urgh..."

Huijie's head tilted, and he fell to the ground. His eyeballs were knocked out by the huge force. Not long after, fist-sized ownerless luck rose from his body.

The monk Master Yi Hui put away the ownerless luck, looked at the fleeing Li Yu, chanted a Buddha name, and transformed into a black light to chase after her.

"Truly like a lingering ghost!"

Li Yu looked back at the monk Master Yi Hui chasing behind her and snorted. This monk was indeed very powerful; otherwise, she wouldn't just be running away. Even if she were a Fourth Rank, First Stage, she could use the extraordinary power "Funeral Zang Zang Hua Yin" to fight him.

She really didn't like this kind of wretched escape.

After chasing for a day and a night, when the sun was high in the sky on the second day, the fleeing Li Yu suddenly saw Lu Fang waving at her in the distance.

How could it be such a coincidence!

Li Yu's expression was somewhat flustered, and she shouted, "Little Martial Uncle, run! There is a Fourth Rank, Third Stage evil monk behind me."

Lu Fang didn't hear clearly at first because the distance was quite far, and he thought Li Yu was greeting him, so he shouted, "I didn't expect to meet you here."

By the time Li Yu landed beside Lu Fang and explained it clearly to him, it was already too late. The monk Master Yi Hui, who had walked out of the black light, pressed his hands together, and spatial fluctuations rippled in the area centered on him.

"Not good! It's a barrier!"

Li Yu's expression was somewhat ugly.

Lu Fang observed quickly. He could perceive that the surrounding barrier was very solid; it should have been something the monk Master Yi Hui had spent a great price to cast.

Clearly, the monk Master Yi Hui before them wanted to kill them both here.

The monk Master Yi Hui chanted a Buddha name and chuckled, saying, "This poor monk is truly too curious. I didn't expect that this female benefactor's Little Martial Uncle would actually be a Sixth Rank, Second Stage scholar. I imagine his luck is not small."

Li Yu stared vigilantly at the monk Master Yi Hui and said to Lu Fang, "Little Martial Uncle, I will hold him off. You find an opportunity to see if you can break the barrier."

Lu Fang shook his head and said, "No, no, no. He is a Fourth Rank, Third Stage. If we confront him head-on, you cannot be his opponent. Let's join forces and try."

Li Yu turned her head and glared at Lu Fang in anger, saying, "Little Martial Uncle, why are you so long-winded? I told you to go..."

The words came to an abrupt end.

How could the monk Master Yi Hui let them continue to discuss? He also saw that Li Yu cared a bit about Lu Fang, so he didn't attack her, but instead attacked Lu Fang.

"Listen to your Martial Uncle. If I join forces with you, we won't necessarily lose."

Lu Fang shouted, summoned the Qimen Feijia, and retreated several zhang, maintaining a pincer position with Li Yu. In this way, no matter who was attacked by the monk Master Yi Hui, the other could quickly support them.

Seeing that the situation had become like this, Li Yu didn't say anything more and directly cast "Funeral Zang Zang Hua Yin." Pink petals locked onto the monk Master Yi Hui.

Almost at the same time, Lu Fang also cast "Funeral Zang Zang Hua Yin."

Two extraordinary powers of "Funeral Zang Zang Hua Yin" locked onto the monk Master Yi Hui together, scaring him into stopping. Under the dual restriction, the huge loss of ability made him feel a sense of discomfort.

"The extraordinary powers of you two are the same."

The monk Master Yi Hui looked at Lu Fang and Li Yu, clearly somewhat hesitant, because in order to trap the two before him, he had spent huge Buddha power to condense the barrier.

If he were restricted by the other party's two extraordinary powers again, his advantage would not be the crushing one he had imagined.

Li Yu also saw the monk Master Yi Hui's hesitation and deliberately said loudly, "Little Martial Uncle, you and I joining forces have a seventy percent chance of killing this evil monk."

Of course, she had very little confidence in this sentence, because subconsciously, she didn't feel she could win even with two extraordinary powers of "Funeral Zang Zang Hua Yin" restricting the monk Master Yi Hui. ===== CHAPTER 134 =====
