I, a Mental Patient, Was Chosen to Participate in AnalogHorror-Chapter 465 - 431 Siege
Chapter 465: Chapter 431 Siege
Suddenly, Da Bai’s eyes became sharp, sweeping across Gangdan and Chang An like the edge of a razor-sharp blade.
A hint of coldness flowed through her deep, vertical pupils.
Something wrong?
"You... the scent on you, it seems familiar..."
Da Bai’s voice was low, with a barely noticeable tremor, as if touching a deeply buried memory.
Gangdan and Chang An exchanged glances, both seeing a hint of panic in each other’s eyes.
They hadn’t expected Da Bai to notice the Taoist aura on them so quickly.
"This scent... could it be related to that old Taoist?"
Da Bai slowly rose, her body slightly twisted in the air, her human form giving off an eerie snake-like impression.
Gangdan’s eyes widened, his body tensed, ready to strike at any moment, because the Da Bai standing before them was the snake demon that even his master Yan Chixia found exceedingly troublesome!
"Sister Da Bai, this has nothing to do with our deal."
Jiang Xiao tried to calm the atmosphere, his voice as steady as possible.
He knew that if Da Bai attacked, they could hardly resist.
A sly look flashed in Da Bai’s eyes as she seemed to weigh her options.
"Oh? Then why are you so interested in Dalian’s soul? Could it be that you want to use it for something?"
Although these two were related to the Taoist sect, she was more curious about what Wang Dayong wanted with a weird woman’s soul, and why Wang Dayong was mingling with two Taoists?
Jiang Xiao didn’t answer; he knew any careless response could push them into an abyss from which there was no returning.
His gaze turned to the Juicer, hoping to get some insight from her.
A flicker of unease passed through the Juicer’s eyes, but she quickly composed herself, knowing her fate now lay in these people’s hands.
She took a deep breath, ready to say something to ease the tense situation.
Just then, urgent footsteps came from outside the room, followed by a figure bursting in.
It was Bai Yi, her face pale, clearly having rushed over.
"Daddy, it’s not good; a large group of people in Taoist robes is approaching, and it seems they are coming for us!"
Xiao Bai’s voice carried a hint of panic.
This sudden news made the atmosphere in the room even tenser.
A hint of sarcasm flitted across Da Bai’s eyes; it seemed she had found the answer she was looking for.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, cunning humans. It seems you are not only related to that old Taoist but also have a special relationship with him. But do you really think I could be fooled by a stinky Taoist twice?"
Da Bai’s voice was full of derision as her body slowly rose, as if to separate herself from this world.
Shit!
Why had the Taoist people come?
Wasn’t this plainly telling Da Bai that they had set an ambush to lure her here?
Most importantly, Xiao Bai had told Jiang Xiao that they were still quite far away and it would take at least half an hour to reach here.
No...
Bai Yi’s aura had become extremely dangerous, and she had murderous intentions.
Jiang Xiao’s expression instantly turned resolute. He knew there was no turning back now — only battle awaited.
"Take action! Strike first to gain the upper hand!"
His entire body was instantly covered by a magnetic storm; lightning wreaked havoc around him, each breath he took possessed the might of thunderbolts.
Steel Egg looked solemn; his left hand held a glowing string of prayer beads, and his right hand pinched a Taoist spell.
He murmured prayers, alternating between "Jesus, Amen" and "Supreme Forgetting, Supreme Heavenly Venerate."
An extraordinary power emanated from him, as if two beliefs intertwined within him to form an incredible power.
"Is Chu Feng’s dual-way fruit floral pattern both Eastern and Western?"
Chang An silently stood by, holding an ancient long sword that circulated a faint glow.
His gaze was calm, and he quietly moved back, knowing his strength was weaker and advancing would only hold the others back.
Bai Yi was fully armed; if Steel Egg represented a fusion of East and West in action, then she was a cultural hybrid in equipment.
From the Buddhist Cassock Purple Gold Bowl to the Taoist robe and peach wood sword, and even a foreign Bible and sacred scepter, she wore them all.
She was the spitting image of a young loli version of Taoist Duobao!
In that moment, the four’s momentum merged into one. They understood— all they needed to do was to stall until Taoist reinforcements arrived!
Dalian observed the scene, a flicker of fighting spirit in her eyes, but more so disdain.
Her body twisted severely, and layers of scales began to cover her.
Her fingers turned sharp like serpent fangs, and her body temperature rapidly dropped to the optimal temperature for combat.
"Come on, let me see what gives you the right to bark in front of me."
Dalian’s voice carried provocation, then she suddenly vanished from her spot. In the next moment, she reappeared behind Jiang Xiao, her sharp fingers aimed at his vital points.
But Jiang Xiao was prepared, his body instantly enveloped by the magnetic storm; electricity burst from him, fiercely blocking Dalian’s attack.
Then, he launched a series of combination punches back at her.
Electromagnetic?
Dalian furrowed her brows. How could Wang Dayong control electromagnetic forces?
After all, whether they were major demons or peculiar beings, they all kept their distance from electricity. How could it possibly reverse the celestial elements?
Steel Egg was not to be outdone, his left hand’s prayer beads emitted a dazzling light, and his right hand’s spell constantly changed.
Most importantly, his body seemed to be pulled by two forces, yet he turned this pulling force into his own strength.
It resulted in a 1+1=3 effect; his powerful force also posed a significant threat to Dalian.
Chang An intermittently thrust his sword, aiming for Dalian’s back, never allowing her to escape from the pincer attack of Jiang Xiao and Steel Egg.
Assessing the opponent, the occasional stealth attack was nothing shameful~
Bai Yi turned into a small tornado, her body continuously shifting positions in the air, seeking Dalian’s weaknesses.
Meanwhile, Bai Yi also inherited Mu Xitang’s hobbies and liked to use "moves."
Unfortunately, she was not as diligent and eager to learn as Pink Hair, so to avoid continuously using basic attacks, she had to invent her own move names.
"Duck Ascending! Elephant Kick! Gazelle Jump! Lion Worship! Cheetah Sprint! Hawk Eagle Landing!! Mouse Steals Cheese! Tiger Claw Eats Pudding! Ponytail Whips the Hawk! Black Tiger Skims the Vulture! Tornado Destroys the Parking Lot!"
The four’s attacks trapped Dalian at the center; her body continuously shifted, attempting to find a breakthrough, but their assaults were watertight.
