Profound Cultivation

Lord Bai the Fourteenth was not a man of deep thoughts to begin with, and when he realized that he had been deceived by Xiao Xueyin, he was so angry that he blew his beard and glared at her.

Not being confident in dealing with Miss Hu Jiu doesn't mean it wouldn't dare to take action against these swindlers.

Fine, sharp spikes instantly sprouted from its body, and a hazy white light swirled around it.

Generally speaking.

Highly skilled immortals can maintain their human appearance even when using their Mana.

However, if the characteristics of the true form are revealed, it means that things are about to get serious.

The furniture overturned, and the Mana surge it generated left the entire house in a mess.

It raised its large, fan-like hand and slapped it down in the direction where Xiao Xueyin was.

A pink barrier suddenly solidified, isolating Lord Bai the Fourteenth's roaring Mana from the outside.

The lives and deaths of people like Xiao Xueyin were actually of no concern to Miss Hu Jiu.

She intervened to save them, simply because she felt it would be a way to retaliate against Lord Bai the Fourteenth's earlier mockery.

"Get out of the way."

Lord Bai the Fourteenth's voice was deep. "Otherwise, I'll take care of you too."

Miss Hu Jiu was not frightened and maintained her charming smile.

"Fourteenth Brother, don't be so angry."

Lord Bai the Fourteenth nodded, his expression ferocious.

"Alright, then let's see who has the best skills."

The residence of Lord Bai the Fourteenth.

"Fourteenth Master is not at the temple," Granny Yun concluded definitively.

During this time, she tried every means possible, but still could not get a response from Lord Bai the Fourteenth.

Since even this old incense master was helpless, it was even less likely that Lu Bai and the others would have any solutions.

"Lu Xiangtou, you're quite capable. I, Old Li, admire you."

Incense Master Li gave Lu Bai a thumbs-up, then added, "So, what do you think we should do next?"

Lu Bai stroked his chin, not giving a reply immediately.

According to Incense Master Li, although the fires in the city did not occur at the same time, the intervals between them were not long.

It appears to be a premeditated arson attack by a team.

Since entering the city, they've only encountered this one malevolent creature, the giant weasel. Surely the other arsonists haven't all gone into hiding?

Just as Lu Bai was pondering this question, a deafening roar suddenly came from afar.

A violent shockwave followed closely behind, sweeping across the area like a sudden, high-intensity earthquake, making it difficult to even stand still.

Wooden houses along the way collapsed one after another under the impact of the blast wave, like dominoes.

Thanks to the firelight illuminating the area around the county town, Lu Bai was able to clearly see the mushroom cloud rising in the distance.

"Wha... what's going on? The earth has turned upside down?!"

In this unexpected situation, there was no time to consider whether it was disrespectful; Incense Master Shi instinctively steadied himself by holding onto the shrine.

"You guys go and rescue the people."

After uttering these words, Lu Bai rushed towards the mushroom cloud without waiting for a response from the other incense stick leaders.

In a battle of this level, Incense Master Shi are probably not even cannon fodder; there's no need to have them come with me.

It should be noted that Lu Bai's current exceptional talent allows him to perfectly utilize the Mana of Lord Bai the Fourteenth.

Therefore, he was certain that this level of "explosion" was definitely not something that hedgehog fairy could have caused.

At least, even if he only used Lord Bai the Fourteenth's Mana, he wouldn't have been able to create such a commotion.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

The commotion beneath the mushroom cloud has not yet ceased.

Thick smoke billowed, flames flickered, and blood, flesh, and corpses were visible.

Many people were still trapped in the city, and faced with these successive earthquakes, they could only cry out and kneel in prayer.

Although the commotion was significant, the actual danger to ordinary people did not come from where the mushroom cloud rose.

Zooming out, at this moment, the city gates in the four directions of east, west, south, and north are wide open, and people with their families are rushing to escape the county town.

If anyone glanced out at the wilderness beyond the city, they would notice countless shadowy figures, drooling, rushing toward the crowd under the cover of darkness.

Occasionally, two shadows would collide, emitting a sharp animal cry.

The original houses have now been turned into a semi-circular pit with a diameter of over 100 meters, as if a giant had dug a piece of the ground out with a spoon.

"Fourteenth Brother..."

Bang!

"My little sister..."

Bang!

"... It's truly for your own good."

BOOM!!!

Every time Miss Hu Jiu spoke, she would create a terrifying torrent of Mana to impact the white orb of light in front of her.

Yes, this sphere of light is Lord Bai the Fourteenth.

It has revealed its true form, but unfortunately it is still no match for this Miss Hu Jiu.

To avoid being beaten to death, Lord Bai the Fourteenth could only curl up like this, relying on his racial talent to prolong his life.

Miss Hu Jiu withdrew her Mana and covered her mouth with a soft laugh.

"Fourteenth Brother, come out here, little sister won't hit you anymore."

With the attack halted, Lord Bai the Fourteenth finally found a moment to catch his breath.

It raised its head, looking at Miss Hu Jiu with a complicated expression. "I never expected... that you would actually have the ability to Establish Prefecture and Build Temple."

"Didn't my little sister say we're family? We didn't lay a hand on you at first just because we didn't want to ruin our relationship?"

The white-clad fairy gracefully swayed her flowing sleeves, controlling Xiao Xueyin and the other two to walk to her side. "You harbor resentment towards these humans, don't you? If you decide to stand on our side, I'll eliminate them for you right away."

She placed her palm on Xiao Xueyin's head, and when she talked about getting rid of them, her tone was as casual as if she were asking what he wanted for breakfast.

"You've all talked for so long."

A gentle voice suddenly rang out, drawing the attention of everyone present.

Lu Bai walked down the slope, exuding an aura of harmlessness.

Upon seeing this uninvited guest, the expressions of everyone present varied.

There's no need to elaborate on the three deathmatchers; the "Innocent Smile" on Lu Bai's head alone is enough to prove his identity as a deathmatcher, not to mention that two of them know him.

The Miss Hu Jiu, exclaimed in surprise, "You, a mere Incense Officer burner, have such audacity?"

How dare you come over after making such a commotion? Don't you have a death wish?

Fearing being killed by Lu Bai offline, Fan Ding dared not reveal his identity and could only pretend not to know him.

Xiao Xueyin was willing to admit it.

Unfortunately, the situation was too dangerous, and he didn't want to implicate Lu Bai, so he quickly signaled to him with his eyes to run away.

But to his surprise, Lu Bai, as if he hadn't understood his hint, not only didn't leave, but also took the initiative to greet them.

"Gentlemen, it's been a long time."

Lu Bai approached with a smile.

Hearing this, Miss Hu Jiu's expression softened. "Another Reincarnated Demon?"

During this period, they captured more than a hundred fighters.

After all, the Deathmatchers' first round of Ability Pool was only at the Silver level.

From the perspective of the evil spirits, these death fighters pose little threat, aside from possessing some rather impractical and bizarre abilities.

"We can catch up later."

Lu Bai was unaware that he had already been labeled as a weakling.

He turned his gaze back to Miss Hu Jiu: "Explain to me first, what's this about Reincarnated Demon?"
