A Bit Like a Chicken Rib

You! You stinking fox!

After all, they are young people, and they are naturally impulsive and easily angered, and at an age where they cannot withstand provocation.

Provoked by Yin Yunze like this, Zhou Hongxia could no longer tolerate it.

He strode forward, twirled his sword, and then delivered a swift and powerful thrust at Yin Yunze.

This fierce sword strike, though insignificant compared to Yin Yunze's, was certainly enough to deal with some minor demons.

Given that the Dynastic Karmic Luck inherently possesses the characteristic of breaking through all laws, one can understand the girl's boldness.

Yin Yunze also paid some attention to this.

Trying is one thing, but if you really mess things up with this little girl, even if you're Avatar, it's still a bit embarrassing.

Therefore, when faced with Zhou Hongxia's thrust, Yin Yunze did not use two fingers to brace himself, but instead clamped the sword firmly between his hands.

And then, that was it.

After clamping the sword, Yin Yunze felt a slight chill emanating from it.

However, apart from that, Yin Yunze did not sense anything particularly special.

The blessing of that auspicious purple light seemed to have no effect whatsoever.

It was as if Yin Yunze had simply caught an ordinary, common sword.

The purple light of the dynasty attached to the sword did not serve any purpose.

"This is your Imperial Qi Battle Technique?"

Glancing at the sword, Yin Yunze noticed that the purple aura of fortune attached to the sword had dissipated.

After a moment of silent eye contact with Zhou Hongxia, Yin Yunze asked softly, "It seems... it's not working out! I don't feel anything at all!"

"No, that's not right!"

Zhou Hongxia was also extremely surprised and said in a flustered manner, "Even if you are an old fox spirit, you couldn't possibly block my sword and be completely unharmed! This! It must be you! What method did you use to neutralize my Imperial Qi Battle Technique! You stinking fox, you're messing with my Dao Heart again!"

Speechless at Zhou Hongxia's self-righteous statement, Yin Yunze pushed the sword outwards.

"You say your Imperial Qi Battle Technique is fine? Then why don't you give it another try!"

This time, however, Zhou Hongxia did not act immediately, but instead carefully examined the sword.

Upon seeing the purple aura of fortune vanish from the sword, Zhou Hongxia angrily exclaimed, "As expected, you used some sorcery to neutralize my Imperial Qi Battle Technique! You corrupted my Dao Heart! Indeed, foxes are mostly cunning and treacherous, old and shrewd creatures!"

Yin Yunze was at a loss for words.

After all, Yin Yunze really didn't make any unnecessary movements, so the purple aura of fortune simply had no effect on its own.

However, if Yin Yunze were to actually tell the truth, Zhou Hongxia would probably be furious again.

Moreover, Yin Yunze was also curious about what exactly this purple light of fortune was all about.

So, after thinking for a moment, Yin Yunze simply said, "Even if I used demonic magic, wasn't that just to make your Law Technique look weak? If you're bad, practice more; if you can't handle losing, don't play. The past is the past, and the present is the present—"

"Ugh—you!"

Caught off guard by Yin Yunze's words, Zhou Hongxia took a while to recover, muttering, "Even if my strength is lacking, what does that have to do with my Law Technique! You, you mustn't look down on me because of me—"

"Okay, okay, I got it! You're bad, you're a complete noob, you're incredibly bad!"

Waving his hand to interrupt Zhou Hongxia, Yin Yunze said seriously, "So, are you even alive? If you don't have any new tricks up your sleeve, then go back to where you came from! I'll protect this little demon!"

Yin Yunze was indeed quite interested in Zhou Hongxia's method of applying the Dynastic Karmic Luck.

After all, this broadened Yin Yunze's horizons to some extent.

However, Yin Yunze did not intend to seize it.

It's fine to just take a look; there's no need to get involved with something like the Supernatural Pursuit Bureau.

Backed by the entire Great Wei, this behemoth was not someone Yin Yunze could afford to offend.

Moreover, if Yin Yunze's prediction is correct...

The fact that such a weakling is allowed to roam around here means there must be other members of the Supernatural Pursuit Bureau nearby.

In any case, Yin Yunze and this girl had no real grudge against each other.

We can't just kill Yin Yunze because people say he's a vixen.

Yin Yunze wouldn't stoop so low as to kill someone for a little demon he'd already saved.

"You filthy fox! You just wait!"

Hearing Yin Yunze say that, Zhou Hongxia became furious and began to awkwardly perform hand seals.

At the same time, Zhou Hongxia began chanting a rather lengthy incantation.

It took Zhou Hongxia nearly ten seconds to finish preparing.

At this moment, Zhou Hongxia's face had turned pale, and sweat was pouring down her forehead.

Clearly, this Law Technique was quite difficult for Zhou Hongxia as well.

Seeing Zhou Hongxia's condition, Yin Yunze couldn't help but speculate.

Could it be that this method of using the Dynastic Karmic Luck requires the consumption of physical or mental energy?

"Demon-Slaying Divine Blade!"

As Zhou Hongxia let out another sharp, shrill shout, the purple light of her aura instantly dissipated.

Then, a small knife, about half the length of a palm, formed from condensed purple light of fortune, appeared in front of Zhou Hongxia.

Silently gazing at the so-called Demon-Slaying Divine Blade, which was only a few inches long, Yin Yunze asked softly, "So, didn't you call it the wrong thing? This is a throwing knife, isn't it? You actually called it the Demon-Slaying Flying Knife?"

"Don't worry about it!"

Hearing Yin Yunze's words, Zhou Hongxia's pale face flushed again, and she gritted her teeth, saying, "Don't worry about the size of this Demon-Slaying Divine Blade! Why use a sledgehammer to crack a nut! This is enough to kill you! Demon -Demon-Slaying Divine Blade! Go! Slay this fox demon!"

With Zhou Hongxia's shout, the Demon-Slaying Divine Blade, as sharp as a flying knife, sped toward Yin Yunze.

Although the little girl had already pushed it to its limit, the speed of the demon-slaying flying knife was not slow.

But at this moment, it was still easy for Yin Yunze to dodge.

Of course, since he was already looking forward to experiencing it, Yin Yunze wouldn't shy away from it.

However, just to be on the safe side, Yin Yunze wouldn't actually let the Demon-Slaying Divine Blade fall on his body so easily.

If some special effect actually occurs, wouldn't that be a complete disaster?

Therefore, Yin Yunze chose to extend his hand, raising his left palm to block the path of the Demon-Slaying Divine Blade.

At the same time, Yin Yunze's right hand was also ready, so that if the Demon-Slaying Divine Blade had any extraordinary properties, he could cut off his left hand.

After all, it's just Avatar and doesn't feel pain. Yin Yunze felt no psychological burden about making such a drastic decision.

Just as Zhou Hongxia was filled with hope and Yin Yunze was on high alert.

Yin Yunze watched in disbelief as the Demon-Slaying Divine Blade shattered into a shower of light the moment it touched Yin Yunze left hand.

Seeing the Demon-Slaying Divine Blade turn into specks of purple dust, not only Zhou Hongxia but also Yin Yunze were somewhat surprised.

After all, Yin Yunze really didn't do anything.

To ensure the experiment remained undisturbed, Yin Yunze didn't even activate the defenses of the Frost and Authority over Frost and Snow.

It can be said that Yin Yunze blocked this blow entirely with his purest Avatar body.

Could it be that this so-called demon-slaying flying knife is merely a pretty face?

However, after thinking about it carefully, Yin Yunze realized...

Although she did not take any active defense, a passive defense was always present and in effect.

That was the Dynastic Karmic Luck belonging to Yin Yunze.

Although this is just an Avatar of Yin Yunze, it still carries the Dynastic Karmic Luck.

However, since it is merely Avatar, the Dynastic Karmic Luck from it is extremely thin.

It was so faint that even the little girl opposite, who had activated her Supernatural-Breaking Dharma Eye, couldn't detect it.

But no matter how diluted it may be, the protection of this Dynastic Karmic Luck is still very real.

Calmly recalling the events, Yin Yunze realized that she did indeed seem to have sensed the demon-slaying flying knife striking the Dynastic Karmic Luck.

However, compared to the amount of purple light of fortune consumed in condensing the Demon-Slaying Flying Knife.

The Dynastic Karmic Luck from Yin Yunze's Avatar was utterly insignificant.

But in reality, Yin Yunze's meager and pitiful Dynastic Karmic Luck shattered the demon-slaying flying knife.

After careful consideration, aided by the Power of Incense Offerings, Yin Yunze quickly found a similar situation.

In fact, Yin Yunze had also experienced a similar situation.

That situation is a case of positional suppression!

When Yin Yunze was first appointed as the God of Frost and Snow, although he was no match for Judge Li, he could at least protect himself and even escape without much trouble.

Especially if they enter the Dao Field, they have the Dao Field advantage, and Judge Li might not be a match for Yin Yunze.

However, due to the suppression of the City God's laws, Yin Yunze was forcibly detained in a rather disheveled manner.

The energy contained within that decree could not possibly be stronger than that of Yin Yunze.

The reason for that situation is simply due to the suppression of one's position.

If Yin Yunze wasn't mistaken, the reason the demon-slaying flying knife was shattered by the Dynastic Karmic Luck emanating from her was also due to this situation.

Even after being granted the highest honors by the prefect, Yin Yunze still did not have a specific official rank.

Regardless, the concentration of the Dynastic Karmic Luck was at least enough to qualify Xu Hanxian, a seventh-rank county magistrate.

In comparison, this young girl from the Supernatural Pursuit Bureau only possesses the luck of a ninth-rank official.

Although it may seem like there are only two levels difference between seven and nine, there is actually a distinction between official and subordinate ranks.

Yin Yunze is at least Principal Seventh Rank official, while this young girl is probably only Subordinate Ninth Rank- rank official.

The Dynastic Karmic Luck was five ranks.

The operating logic of Dynastic Karmic Luck never supports instances of insubordination.

The saying "a higher-ranking official can crush you" is often a stark and cruel reality.

Those who manage to overthrow their superiors do so because behind those seemingly lower-ranking individuals stand people in even higher positions.

After realizing this, Yin Yunze lost interest in the method of Dynastic Karmic Luck.

This situation suggests that the way this Dynastic Karmic Luck is applied is most likely closely related to its own rank.

As for Yin Yunze, the Principal Seventh Rank Dynastic Karmic Luck she currently possesses is actually not very useful.

Surely Yin Yunze wouldn't become an official just to enhance the Dynastic Karmic Luck, would he?

Are you bored? This is putting the cart before the horse!

After understanding all the key points, Yin Yunze discovered that the application of the Dynastic Karmic Luck was somewhat of a double-edged sword for her.

With the Power of Incense Offerings, Yin Yunze figured this out in relatively little time.

At this moment, Zhou Hongxia still had her mouth slightly open, looking incredulous.

"It seems like it's still not working."

Looking at the young girl in front of him who had provided him with so much information, Yin Yunze smiled slightly and said softly, "Since you're out of options, it seems it's my turn to—hehe—"

Since this girl doesn't seem to understand nice things, Yin Yunze thought he might as well scare her away.

"Who said I'm helpless! You filthy fox, just you wait!"

Looking at Yin Yunze, Zhou Hongxia came to her senses, puffed out her cheeks, and shouted, "Father, save me!"
