Chapter 288: Can you still believe me?
Yan Buji struck, producing the Subduing Flood Dragon Disk and directly activating the Dragon-Shaking Classic's power to summon several killing qi long snakes, which rushed into the fray to disrupt Wang Jie's movements.
Wang Jie widened his eyes, holding the Spine Sword and pointing it at Yan Buji: "Punk, you're asking for death!!"
"Asking for death? Dealing with your kind of heretical demon, everyone deserves to kill them, and besides I'm helping my senior brother—who dies is still uncertain!"
Hu Bing exclaimed in alarm: "Not good, junior brother, be careful!"
"Huh?"
Yan Buji hadn't noticed yet when suddenly a red-clad lovely apparition appeared before him, emitting a chilling ghostly aura!
Affected by the ghostly aura, Yan Buji froze for a moment, but the next instant he felt a chill on his neck and immediately activated Lightning Flash and Wind Tuning, shooting back at high speed!
"Close call!"
"What is that?"
"\"Red Bridal Garment? You fiend, you actually refined such an evil thing! Junior brother, be careful— that ghost has reached Foundation Establishment Stage and cannot be matched by force! \"
Yan Buji heard Hu Bing's concerned words and looked at the Red Bridal Garment before him; it was indeed somewhat different from the ghosts he had seen in Youming Jie.
The Red Bridal Garment ghost exuded a rolling sinister and evil aura, extremely ominous. Moreover, the terrifying resentment entwined around her could erode one's magic power, and with her sharp claws, even one's spirit shield might not withstand it.
Wang Jie gave a cold laugh: "Entangle him! Do not injure his life!"
Having received the order, the Red Bridal Garment rushed at Yan Buji to kill him.
Yan Buji's expression remained blank as he immediately went forward to meet the attack.
Hu Bing, standing nearby, hearing those words felt a bit strange. Yet with the great enemy before him, Hu Bing dared not underestimate the opponent, for even the Earth Fiend Subdue Demon Grand Formation could not handle him; surely relying on himself alone to take down Wang Jie would be no easy feat.
In that case, Hu Bing stepped forward and employed his strongest means.
Although he was only at Foundation Establishment Late Stage, facing Wang Jie who was nearly at Foundation Establishment Peak gave him a fighting chance, but the opponent's technique was overly turbid, easily eroding magic power; Hu Bing shifted from an initial fierce assault to defense, and the situation became quite perilous.
Only seeing Wang Jie wave the Spine Sword, myriad wails and cries echoed throughout the wilds; the sound wave rolled up thousands of layers, shattering the nearby sword shadows and also sending Hu Bing flying back tens of meters!
Vast amounts of black evil qi spewed from the Spine Sword like a fountain, scattering around to form shapes of fierce ghosts and evil spirits, howling as they rushed at Hu Bing!
"Damn it!"
Hu Bing mobilized his magic power, released the spirit shield to boost his speed another notch; his long sword burst forth with blazing sword light, and one strike melted an evil ghost!
Wang Jie raised his eyebrows: "Taiji Yin Yang Sword? You actually know this sword technique—looks like you're not a pure Azure Mountain Sect disciple after all."
"\"Xuan Men Hai Chuan, the greater the capacity. I know more than just Azure Mountain Sect's techniques! Demon, take this! \" Hu Bing shouted angrily, sword qi surging around him as numerous blades of magic power formed around his body; scorching yang energy like a blazing sun overhead caused the charging evil ghosts to vanish on contact!"
Wang Jie's face twitched, realizing ordinary means truly couldn't deal with this guy, and he produced another black staff, atop which sat a blood-red skull resembling the underworld impermanence's mourning staff.
As soon as that skull-topped staff appeared, even though Hu Bing possessed the power to dispel evil, he felt a terrifying deadly threat!
"Not good!"
Wang Jie gave a cold laugh and charged forward, his speed actually surpassing Hu Bing's!
"Clang!"
"Boom!"
Hu Bing couldn't dodge in time; the staff struck his sword, and though the long sword was tough, the impact split his tiger's mouth, he also suffered considerable internal injury, flying backward to crash onto the ground and spitting out a mouthful of black blood!
"You.... what is that? Impermanence Staff?!"
"\"You have some insight, tsk tsk, the feeling of Yin Ming Qi entering the body isn't pleasant, huh? \" Wang Jie burst out laughing."
Hu Bing gritted his teeth, looking at Yan Buji still fiercely engaged nearby, and shouted at once: "Junior brother, run!"
Yan Buji drew a deep breath, gazing at Wang Jie.
Wang Jie narrowed his eyes, his meaning quite clear.
"I'll take care of this Hu Bing for you; you'd best obediently scram back to Azure Mountain Sect."
"But Yan Buji is no ordinary person."
"Although Hu Bing, after joining Azure Mountain Sect, looks after me more and is indeed a good person, he never acts based on feelings."
"Only profit reigns supreme."
"Saving Hu Bing might be a trouble, but keeping this Wang Jie is an even greater trouble!"
"\"Senior brother, can we still fight? \""
Yan Buji opened his left eye; the Crimson Gold Double Pupil shot out dazzling light, and the Red Bridal Garment fell into his Breath-Lock Secret Art in an instant, unable to escape before being shattered by the Divine Light of Evil-Breaking!
"Ahhhhh!!"
The Red Bridal Garment let out a miserable scream and suddenly exploded!
Immediately afterward, a stream of red smoke returned to Wang Jie's body.
Wang Jie staggered, his anger surging uncontrollably: "Old fogey, I kindly let you go, and you truly seek death?!"
Hu Bing looked at Yan Buji, his gaze complex.
He had already guessed that Junior Brother Huang and this Wang Jie might have an unclear connection.
And this might also be the cause of Pang De's death!
Yan Buji chuckled: "\"Let me go? Too bad, there are plenty who want to kill me, and you're no exception. Senior brother, don't listen to this demon's nonsense; today if we don't settle him, none of us will fare well! \"
Hu Bing gritted his teeth, struggled to rise, took several pills to forcibly suppress his injuries, then surged upward into the high skies again, looking at Yan Buji:
"\"Junior brother, can I still trust you? \""
"\"If you don't believe me, I could just leave now; I imagine that person would also let me go. \" Yan Buji said calmly.
"\"But if senior brother wants to live, then join me in dealing with him! \"
While speaking, Yan Buji no longer concealed himself.
Instant Shadow Step, Lightning Flash, and Wind Tuning all activated at once; Yan Buji was even faster than ordinary Foundation Establishment evasion techniques, appearing before Wang Jie in the blink of an eye!
"\"Impossible.... Martial Dao True Origin?! You are a Martial Dao Foundation Establishment?! \" Wang Jie stared wide-eyed, observing the violent fluctuations of Yan Buji's true essence magic power, somewhat vexed that he hadn't noticed it sooner."
"Not....."
"He was deliberately hiding his clumsiness; he originally had the means to restrain the Red Bridal Garment, but waited until after he had injured his senior brother before unleashing his true strength—nothing else but not wanting to be at a disadvantage."
Besides, he is doing this to make sure his own senior brother doesn't stab him, so he can relax and team up with him to deal with himself?
He really wants to kill me!!
Wang Jie, having figured all this out, roared: "Old thing, what a scheme!!"
"If that's all you can say, Your Excellency, you're really losing face!"
Yan Buji directly activates Bright King Crossing, the True Essence within contains the power of Prison-Suppressing Force, he holds shackles and a long staff, his palm and fist techniques shift, the might of the Heavenly Heart Four Symbols Technique is manifested again!
Moreover, besides these, the Divine Light Breaking Evil that Yan Buji possesses is also an excellent means to restrain evil; for a moment, even Wang Jie wielding the Impermanence Staff, a Foundation Establishment Peak demonic cultivator, cannot counterattack and can only continually block, looking for an opportunity to strike back!
Seeing Yan Buji so fierce, he is actually a strong person at Martial Dao Foundation Establishment; Hu Bing's eyes are full of shock, but as he said, if they don't deal with Wang Jie, none of them will survive.
But, who among these smart people can't see how much slickness this battle hides?
Hu Bing wants to know the relationship between Wang Jie and Yan Buji; Yan Buji is thinking of quickly killing Wang Jie to get rid of a hunting dog, while Wang Jie, besides needing to defend himself, shamefully thinks of fleeing quickly so as not to ruin the adult's plans.
As for this battle, from the very start, Wang Jie dared not unleash his full strength.
