Decisive Action

"What... what the hell?!"

Incense Master Li dumbfounded.

No way, are all young people these days this fierce?

He originally intended to come and help Lu Bai and the others, but he never expected to witness such a shocking scene.

To be honest, even if Incense Master Li Lord Bai the Fourteenth came, dealing with an evil spirit of the giant weasel level would probably be quite troublesome.

But now someone has actually managed to send him flying with a single punch.

It's unbelievable! Aren't we all offering the same kind of incense?!

Incense Master Shi noticed the commotion behind him, turned around, and was surprised to see a familiar face. He immediately greeted her, "Incense Master Li, long time no see!"

Incense Master Li made no attempt at small talk at this moment.

He winked at Lu Bai and asked in a low voice, "Incense Master Shi, may I ask who that is?"

"That's Ms. Lü, I'll introduce you to her in a bit."

Incense Master Shi patted his arm. "Don't worry, Lü Xiangtou is gentle and easy to get along with."

Granny Yun nodded in agreement at first, then fired off a barrage of questions. "We just got back to the city, what exactly happened there? How could such a huge mess have occurred? Where is Lord Bai the Fourteenth now?"

Incense Master Li opened his mouth, then gave a wry smile, "To be honest, I'm completely confused myself. I was half asleep when I heard people shouting 'fire'..."

Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by a sharp scream.

"How dare you insult me!"

Huang Yuan was stunned by Lu Bai's punch and only now came to his senses.

It swatted away the pieces of building material pressing down on it and stood up.

His bloodshot eyes gleamed with a ferocious light, as if he were about to devour his prey.

"This Yellow Weasel is pretty tough."

Incense Master Shi appeared completely unnerved.

In the past, if he had encountered an evil spirit of this level, he would have turned around and run away without saying a word.

But after witnessing Lu Bai's performance, he had complete confidence in Lu Bai.

Noticing that Incense Master Li a little nervous, Incense Master Shi even had the time to say something to comfort her.

"Relax, with Lu Xiangtou around, this beast can't cause any trouble."

Lu Bai would not let his guard down just because Incense Master Shi flattered him.

He watched as the giant weasel rose again from the ruins, clenched his right fist, and quickly conjured a huge white spike.

This is, after all, a world where supernatural powers exist; if one is careless, it's hard to guarantee that one won't fall into a trap.

Seeing that the giant weasel was about to retaliate, Lu Bai immediately used [Flash Time] and threw out the white spikes that had gathered on his right arm first.

Huang Yuan felt as if in the blink of an eye, the huge white spike was already on his face.

Bang!

A rich, milky-white magical Mana burst forth in a ring, gradually covering Huang Yuan's entire body.

Against the backdrop of night, the visual effect is extremely stunning.

"Not again?!"

Huang Yuan only had time to entertain this thought before he lost control of his body, and his massive, nearly four-meter-tall frame collapsed with a crash.

It simply couldn't understand how such an attack, which seemed to transcend space, could occur.

In its mind, none of the Four Great Sects should possess such abilities.

Seeing that the situation was under control, Incense Master Shi and the others all gathered around. They had to take a closer look at such a large weasel.

Lu Bai walked up to its head, a gentle smile on his face, "Can we talk?"

It was only upon closer inspection that I realized that although this weasel was quite intimidating in size, it did not emit any unpleasant odor; instead, it carried a faint scent of sandalwood.

Huang Yuan didn't want to show cowardice in front of humans, and even in its current predicament, it remained arrogant.

He snorted coldly and said, "It's nothing more than being one move behind in the game."

Before Lu Bai could say anything after hearing Huang Yuan's rude remarks, Incense Master Shi couldn't help but shout, "You beast! You still dare to be arrogant?"

"A dog relying on its master's power."

Huang Yuan disdainfully looked away.

Lu Bai smiled and said, "So there's nothing to talk about?"

His tone sounded amused, yet it sent a chill down Huang Yuan's spine.

Unable to swallow his pride and beg for mercy, Huang Yuan resorted to threats. "Even Bai Shisi can't protect himself; if you kill me..."

Pfft~

A cone-shaped spike appeared out of nowhere and smashed Huang Yuan's head into a pile of mangled flesh.

"Good!"

Incense Master Li overjoyed.

He was terrified that Lu Bai would spare its life, after all, not long ago he had watched helplessly as this giant weasel slaughtered civilians.

Seeing Huang Yuan die on the spot, he felt as refreshed as eating a bite of ice-cold watermelon on a sweltering summer day.

He immediately cupped his hands in a respectful gesture towards Lu Bai, momentarily speechless with excitement. "Lü Bai, you truly are..."

Lu Bai stood up and dispersed the white mist from his right arm.

"Let's get down to business first. What exactly happened in the city?"

That deserted house in the east of the city.

Lord Bai the Fourteenth is still in a standoff with Miss Hu Jiu.

Xiao Xueyin wisely kept quiet, trying her best to minimize her presence.

The room was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop, even though there were three people in it.

Suddenly,

Lord Bai the Fourteenth and Miss Hu Jiu seemed to sense something, and strange expressions appeared on their faces at the same time.

"Hahaha, Miss Hu Jiu, it seems you know about this too."

Lord Bai the Fourteenth made no attempt to hide the joy on his face. "Can you still continue to stand by and watch from the sidelines?"

Miss Hu Jiu's eyebrows quickly relaxed, and she smiled sweetly, "Fourteenth Brother is getting too excited. It's just a minor accident; it won't affect the overall situation."

"Since there were unexpected events, doesn't that prove that the plan wasn't as perfect as you said?"

Lord Bai the Fourteenth grinned, his face trembling slightly as he spoke, "I'm a straightforward person, so please forgive my bluntness, Miss Hu Jiu."

Bang!

The sound of the door being kicked open interrupted the bickering between the two immortals.

"Brother Xue Yin, Brother Wang and I have already burned down the county government office. Are you there, Brother Xue Yin?"

Before anyone was seen, Fan Ding's voice came through.

Upon hearing this commotion, Xiao Xueyin's face turned green.

Two figures, one tall and one short, quickly entered the room.

Upon discovering that there were two more strangers in the room, Fan Ding, out of caution, kept quiet.

Brother Wang immediately realized something was wrong and turned to run away.

Unfortunately, with just a snap of her fingers, Miss Hu Jiu controlled Brother Wang's movements from a distance, forcing him to obediently return to his room.

Ignoring the two who had suddenly entered, Lord Bai the Fourteenth turned to look at Xiao Xueyin and quietly repeated the three words from Fan Ding's words, "Burn down the county government office?"

Lord Bai the Fourteenth's reaction made Miss Hu Jiu laugh uncontrollably.

"I thought Fourteenth Brother had sensed something was wrong and that's why he followed the clues to find this kid."

Lord Bai the Fourteenth was stunned. "What do you mean by that?"

Miss Hu Jiu extended a slender index finger, twirling it in front of her, controlling Xiao Xueyin to walk to her side. "Fourteenth Brother, don't you know that this kid is also one of ours?"
