Stop fooling around, a Daoist priest fighting zombies with martial arts?

"Yes, thankfully Junior Nephew Lin Fan followed. If not, I fear my disciples and I would not have survived tonight."

Daoist Priest Qian He sighed deeply and shook his head.

Seeing this, Daoist Priest Four-Eyes reached out and patted Daoist Priest Qian He's shoulder.

"Junior Benefactor Lin Fan is indeed exceptionally wise. Not only did he help the Daoist Priest eliminate the Green Zombie, but he also comprehended the formation. Truly commendable, truly commendable."

Master Yixiu stepped forward and praised him.

Upon hearing this, Daoist Priest Qian He could only offer a bitter smile repeatedly.

As if finding it difficult to speak, he then said, "No, no, Master, you don't know. The credit for eliminating this Green Zombie mainly goes to Junior Nephew Lin Fan. The Green Zombie was... by Junior Nephew..."

Daoist Priest Qian He seemed to struggle to continue.

"Was what by Senior Disciple Brother? Come on, tell me, Uncle-Master."

Jia Le asked calmly.

"He... ah! He was killed by Junior Nephew's martial arts, his internal organs shattered."

Daoist Priest Qian He said with utter helplessness.

As his voice fell.

Jia Le straightened up, stunned, as if turned to stone.

He subconsciously swallowed.

He stood frozen in place, his soul seemingly drifting away.

Martial arts, fighting a Green Zombie.

Heh, why don't you say he shattered mountains and rivers with one punch?

A Green Zombie, not a Black Zombie, let alone a Purple Zombie.

It had a body like a bronze wall and an iron bastion, impervious to blades and spears, understand?

Bronze skin and iron bones, how dare you, Senior Disciple Brother?

"Qing..."

Jia Le steadied his mind and called out.

As if seeking spiritual solace.

Qingqing's eyes were filled with admiration.

She gazed intently at Lin Fan.

Looking at this dashing young man.

She had to admit, the first time she saw him, she thought Lin Fan was indeed handsome.

With his sharp, sword-like eyes and brows, mixed with that righteous aura.

Except for the time he was defeated by Lin Fan.

There was nothing else about this guy that made her uncomfortable.

Not to mention she had also said she would work hard to surpass him.

But looking at the current situation, she feared it would be truly difficult to overcome this mountain.

A monstrous talent, still young.

His cultivation was far higher than his peers.

Each of these points was astonishing.

Qingqing knew that to confront a Green Zombie with her body.

That was a fantastical notion, but the person before her.

He was likely no longer within the scope of normal people.

"Martial... martial arts?"

Master Yixiu's voice was slightly heavier as he asked.

When it came to physical prowess, who didn't know of Shaolin?

With the Eighteen Bronze Men guarding the central hall, evil spirits retreated.

How many years did it take to forge that body of steel and iron?

And Lin Fan, at only about seventy to eighty percent of that age.

Although this child had extraordinary talent, his current realm, compared to his age.

Was already terrifyingly astonishing, but...

Fighting a Green Zombie with martial arts?

It was truly unheard of, utterly inconceivable.

How in the world did he do it, shattering its internal organs?

This Lin Fan truly broadens one's horizons.

"Yes, a surge of red evil energy caused this Green Zombie to mutate. If it weren't for Junior Nephew Lin Fan's timely intervention, I fear I would have fallen victim to it as well," Daoist Priest Qian He replied with regret.

Upon hearing this, Daoist Priest Four-Eyes' eyes suddenly lit up. "Let's not talk about the fight for now, Junior Brother. Don't be disheartened. It's not shameful to be saved by Junior Nephew, your senior brother has also been saved by this kid. As for this red evil energy you mentioned, tell me more about it."

When it came to shamelessness, one had to give it to Daoist Priest Four-Eyes.

Uncle-Master Qian He was, after all, a senior in the sect.

He must have felt some shame being saved by a junior.

As for this Uncle-Master Four-Eyes...

Lin Fan set aside his thoughts and interjected, "Uncle-Master, that evil energy just now was the same as the one emitted by the demon flower in Ren Manor before. It was just stronger than before. Uncle-Master Qian He was simply caught off guard by the sudden change. If he had faced it normally with all his fellow disciples present, Uncle-Master Qian He would have surely captured it with ease."

"Demon flower?"

Master Yixiu's heart skipped a beat.

It was as if he recalled some familiar scenes.

"Old monk, what are you thinking about? Could it be that you recognize this demon flower that Junior Nephew mentioned?" Daoist Priest Four-Eyes looked at Master Yixiu with disdain.

Master Yixiu slowly replied, "It's nothing, nothing. I was just thinking about something else."

A wave of disappointment washed over Lin Fan.

He had thought he might learn more.

Or perhaps get more detailed information.

To his surprise, it was all for naught.

But this flower kept appearing.

What could it be...

Lin Fan then spoke, "I see. Uncle-Master, this flower has appeared around me repeatedly. Could it be that I've been targeted by some Evil Cultivators or an evil sect? Whether it was the one that appeared in the Ren Manor before, or the one encountered on the way with Uncle-Master, they both appeared around me. Every time, with the appearance of evil energy, the zombies also grew a bit stronger."

As his voice fell.

Daoist Priest Qian He was seen with one eye half-closed.

The corner of his mouth twitched slightly.

Goodness, you little junior nephew.

You say it so easily. It was exponential growth.

Otherwise, I wouldn't have almost fallen victim to this Green Zombie.

As for this red evil energy...

"It's probably not a coincidence. I think this flower seems to be related to zombies," Daoist Priest Qian He said, as if finding a slight connection.

"If you say you've been targeted, your Uncle-Master Qian He's statement is more fitting," Daoist Priest Four-Eyes said, seeing Lin Fan's suspicion.

Daoist Priest Four-Eyes continued his explanation, "These two zombies recently have been very abnormal. Without exception, as they neared their end, they were accompanied by the appearance of a demon flower, and a strange red evil energy entered their bodies, causing their strength to surge. I suspect there must be a demon behind this."

As his voice fell.

A sound was heard from the forest outside the tent.

The people inside the tent suddenly became tense.

The mountain forest at night.

After being washed by the rain.

The path had become exceptionally muddy.

Splat.

The sound of hurried footsteps interrupted the group's chatter.

The crowd reacted to the sound and one by one, they walked out of the tent.

In the distance, a slender man was seen.

Running from afar while carrying a small boy.

"Oh my, how could you all leave me and Seventy-One Prince behind? You'll be punished!" Attendant Wu shouted at the crowd as he carried the young Seventy-One Prince.

Seeing that it was Attendant Wu, the people outside the tent let out a sigh of relief.

Their tense expressions instantly relaxed.
