My Ability Pool is Superior-Chapter 149 - 148: Coming to the Rescue

"What kind of evil spirit dares to cause chaos in my county town?!"

A bald strong man leaped incessantly across the rooftops, quickly approaching the giant yellow weasel.

With iron rings on both hands, his skin, flushed from drinking, looked visibly red; he seemed like a fearsome, glaring vajra.

"Wang Xiangtou!"

Noticing who had arrived, Li Xiangtou’s eyes brightened.

He knew Wang Xiangtou, knowing well that he had good skills and was always the first to act in situations.

This person had always been brave, and even facing such a powerful evil spirit, he would absolutely not be afraid.

He was the perfect teammate in such a situation.

Li Xiangtou quickly shouted, "Wang Xiangtou, if we stand together, we can surely hold them off until..."

Thud~

Li Xiangtou hadn’t even finished speaking before he saw the giant yellow weasel swat Wang Xiangtou in half as effortlessly as swatting a fly.

In an instant, blood spattered.

Wang Xiangtou was smashed into two pieces of meat, falling onto the ground one after the other.

The crowd, retreating like a tide, saw this scene and uncontrollably screamed hysterically.

The bluestone-paved streets were in chaos, filled with panicked citizens.

Li Xiangtou felt his mind buzzing: "..." Are you crazy?

Seeing Wang Xiangtou’s tragic death, the courage he had just mustered vanished without a trace.

No point in fighting this battle.

Is Master Bai the Fourteenth asleep or something? Why hasn’t he appeared yet?!

...

Meanwhile.

The citizenry and incense masters calling for Master Bai the Fourteenth were currently blocked by a charming young woman.

The maiden wore a snow-white robe with a high chest, her water sleeves fluttering like a celestial maiden.

However, faced with this white-clad celestial maiden, Master Bai the Fourteenth and Xiao Xueyin inside the house dared not let their guard down.

The white-clad celestial maiden chuckled lightly behind her hand, "Fourteenth Brother, you really made me search for you in vain, not staying in your own arena but coming to this place instead."

"Miss Hu Jiu, what brings you to my territory at this time of night?" Master Bai the Fourteenth’s face twitched slightly.

"You ask knowingly—is it possible he didn’t tell you?"

Miss Hu Jiu pointed at Xiao Xueyin, "In any case, Fourteenth Brother, you’d better stay here tonight to avoid any unpleasantness."

"What if I insist on leaving?"

As Master Bai the Fourteenth spoke, he took two steps forward.

Miss Hu Jiu maintained her playful smile, flicked her water sleeve flirtatiously at him, "Don’t make things difficult for me, Brother Fourteen. I don’t want to remove you."

Xiao Xueyin stepped back silently; he felt like the Death Fighters might have mistaken a fundamental aspect.

In this Death Arena, it seemed the orderly immortals were indeed the minority.

Having taken two steps forward, Master Bai the Fourteenth saw Miss Hu Jiu standing indifferent, stopped with a sour face.

Indeed, when one reached the Altar Immortal realm, titles among immortals become clearer.

Like being referred to as a Miss, Mister, Aunt, or Immortal Lord.

But having a numeral added to the title makes it more special.

It indicates that such immortals rank just beneath the top four Great Immortals, and are considered second-generation immortals.

Though the numeric ranking doesn’t reflect the level of power, when it comes to a real fight, Master Bai the Fourteenth was unsure he could handle this Fox Immortal before him.

Thus, the situation became deadlocked.

Such a stalemate was clearly desired by Miss Hu Jiu.

As time passed, Master Bai the Fourteenth’s face grew more somber.

Even standing inside the building, he could see fires burning across the county town.

...

County Government Office.

Given that immortals existed in this world, the status of the County Government Office naturally wasn’t highly regarded by the common folk.

Hardly anyone left officials on duty at night, and even during the day, it was often empty.

Under such circumstances, it was effortlessly easy for Death Fighters to start fires.

Fan Ding jumped down from the wall, dusting off his hands, and quietly asked, "Wang, what should we do next?"

Beside him, a tall Death Fighter looked up at the sky, his brow furrowed.

"Where’s the signal? Something must have happened on Xiao Xueyin’s side."

"What should we do then?"

After contemplating for two seconds, Wang made a decision.

"Let’s go directly to where Xiao Xueyin is."

...

The wind fueled the flames, thick smoke billowed upwards.

Matched with the wails of the citizens and the screeches of the evil spirits, the entire county town resembled a dance of demons.

On the northern side of the county town, people crowded the city gate; the citizens jostled each other, slowing the passage efficiency of the gate.

Li Xiangtou wandered dazedly among the crowd.

He lacked the courage to turn back and deal with the giant yellow weasel, yet fleeing with the panicked crowd felt somewhat unsettling.

Suddenly, Li Xiangtou noticed a disturbance at the city gate.

Focusing his gaze, he realized it was a group of three people pushing against the crowd to enter the city.

Leading them was a young man, exuding an extraordinary and refined aura from afar.

Li Xiangtou was confident he’d never seen him in the city—such a handsome youth would be unforgettable after just one encounter.

Though he didn’t recognize the leader, he was quite familiar with the two individuals following him.

He hurriedly waved and shouted, "Granny Yun! Shi Xiangtou!"

Sadly, the wailing and screaming citizens were too numerous; the city gate was buzzing with noise.

No matter how dry Li Xiangtou’s throat became from shouting, he failed to attract the attention of the three.

Li Xiangtou reluctantly ceased calling, watching helplessly as the group headed towards the giant yellow weasel.

"No, I must hurry and inform them about the situation in town."

"That’s not a spirit the incense masters can handle."

"I must stop them."

After a moment of thought, Li Xiangtou began to force his way through the crowd, aiming to join Lv Bai and the others.

No matter what, several incense masters together could achieve more than him alone.

He couldn’t let them be wasted under the weasel’s claws needlessly.

The intention was good, but execution presented challenges.

For starters, the crowd of citizens directly in front made Li Xiangtou’s effort arduous.

By the time he managed to break free, Lv Bai’s group had already vanished from sight.

The group had gone to confront the giant yellow weasel.

Realizing this, Li Xiangtou’s spirits sank.

Taking a deep breath, he gritted his teeth, and followed.

He didn’t believe incense masters could deal with that level of spirit; he simply thought perhaps there was still a glimmer of hope, possibly preserving some remnant.

But,

As he passed through sight-blocking civilian buildings, he witnessed a scene he would never forget.

Amid the night, a figure mixed with black and white, like lightning, instantly launched the giant yellow weasel flying.

Unleashing unimaginable terrifying power, the weasel crashed through five, six buildings before finally coming to a stop.
