Schemes and Stratagems

The middle-aged Daoist's smile was brazen, and he clearly did not take Chen Wang and the others seriously.

In his eyes, he alone could handle all three of them.

If he had not received a decree ordering him to descend and purge these rebels, there would have been no need for such a grand display.

The middle-aged Daoist laughed loudly and struck with a wave of his hand!

The whisk instantly expanded, like a river of stars. Countless silver threads, sharp beyond compare, pierced downward.

Sensing the towering killing intent upon the whisk, Chen Wang could not help feeling somewhat tense.

Little Six said steadily, "Although the Jade Void Whisk in his hand is an imitation, it is extremely powerful. So is that Adamantine Bracelet—both are formidable imitation magic treasures. I'll deal with him."

More precisely, Little Six should now have been called Lu Li, for he was no longer the ignorant and muddleheaded person he had once been.

The moment Little Six finished speaking, he immediately charged forward.

He formed seals with both hands, and a Taiji Diagram emerged behind him. One black, one white, the two Taiji fish revolved and shifted.

Taiji was the true Great Dao; Taiji transformed, yin and yang turned in endless cycles.

At once, the whisk was caught by the Taiji yin-yang fish and spun without cease.

The middle-aged Daoist's smile vanished, and his brows furrowed. "Lu Li, after all these years, you're still lingering like a Yin Spirit."

Lu Li said coldly, "You rotten bones in graves—if I had not fallen prey to your schemes back then, you would not even be qualified to fight me now!"

The middle-aged Daoist was first stunned, then burst into laughter. "You're far too confident. After all these years, do you truly think I've made no progress?"
