Chapter 889: Chapter 98: The Most Capable Fighting Kid in the World [Monthly Ticket Request!]

When the ritual at Ling Guan Town was held again, the security was noticeably tighter. Every few steps, one could see burly men with weapons standing guard, clearly to prevent any disruptions to the ritual.

However, it was a futile effort. If it were still the top players of the Immortal Sect like yesterday, these guards would not be able to stop them.

Everything was like the night before. Several men carried a red palanquin and placed it on a raft, which they then pushed downstream. Just as the raft was being pushed down the boulders, suddenly a fierce wind arose, blowing so hard that people could barely stand still or keep their eyes open.

"Master Ling Guan is angry!" someone shouted loudly.

The townsfolk of Ling Guan Town knelt down one after another, begging for mercy. They claimed that the disruption of yesterday’s ritual was all due to "Divine Dragon Penglai" and if Master Ling Guan were to bring disaster as punishment, he should target that person.

After a while, the fierce wind finally subsided.

The man in the black robe, his gaze profound, waved his hand and the ritual began anew. The burly men shouted in unison, pushing the raft into the water.

Bang—

A few miles away on a hillside, Chu Liang emerged from the fierce wind, still holding onto two children.

A thin, dark girl and a short boy—they were the Spirit Children who were supposed to be on the red palanquin last night, and they were still supposed to be used for the ritual tonight.

"Watch them for now; I’ll keep an eye on the situation over there," Chu Liang said as he handed the children to Lin Bei.

"Alright," Lin Bei promptly took over.

The little girl had seen them yesterday and had listened to their instructions; therefore, she was not too scared. However, the little boy was very frightened, his lips quivering as he was about to cry.

Lin Bei immediately soothed him, "Don’t be afraid. I’m not a bad person. Ask her; she knows us."

Chu Liang had discussed this plan with Xiao Ershan the previous night. Although Xiao Ershan’s crimes were unforgivable, as long as he cooperated, his daughter could be saved. Xiao Ershan immediately agreed to participate in Chu Liang’s plan.

The little boy looked at the little girl, who timidly nodded her head. Lin Bei grinned, "See, we’re all buddies. Give me some face and don’t cry. If you ever get a chance to visit Shu Mountain, I’ll make arrangements for you."

Meanwhile, Chu Liang had already donned the Red Demonic Helmet, transformed into the figure of a shrimp-headed man, and focused his Divine Sense on the riverside of the ritual. Although he could extend his Divine Sense to this distance ordinarily, his heightened Godly Soul allowed him to pay even closer attention to subtle changes, making it more efficient with the helmet on.

Last night, at Xiao Ershan’s house, they had set this plan, not wanting to act rashly and startle the target, allowing the ritual to continue to see if they could lure out the Twin Demons.

But using ordinary children as bait would never do; if they accidentally harmed the children, the regret would be immense.

Hence, that sudden gust of wind arose.

Chu Liang’s Divine Sense covered every corner of the river, upstream and downstream. Peeking through the curtains of the lifted red palanquin, inside indeed sat two children.

One was a refined and slender boy with clear eyes and a gentle demeanor.

The other was a girl with delicate and pretty facial features. Although she was strikingly beautiful, she was quite oblivious to her manners, holding a fruit and eating voraciously, juice splattering everywhere.

Fortunately, the palanquin had already hit the water, and the sound of her chewing was masked by the water, preventing those nearby from hearing it.

These two were none other than Chu Yi and Jiang Guo from the Northern Region Holy Mountain!

In that bout of fierce wind, Chu Liang had switched these two children in place of the ritual’s Spirit Children. Although they were a few years older than the other Spirit Children, they were still children, and undoubtedly a much stronger combination than Chu Liang and Lin Bei.

As the raft drifted downstream with the current, a sinister breeze also swept in.

...

Grunt, grunt, grunt.

Jiang Guo finished one fruit and then dug out another, continuing to eat delightfully, juice flying everywhere, occasionally hitting Chu Yi’s clothes across from her. Chu Yi could only maintain a smile.

When Chu Liang thought of using children, he first thought of Little Jiangguo on the Sacred Mountain. With the circle of immortal friends now well-developed, he no longer needed to travel up to the Sacred Mountain himself; he simply sent a message.

Jiang Guo promptly agreed to Chu Liang’s request because she knew that helping Brother Guo would certainly include plenty of food for her.

Chu Yi, hearing about Chu Liang’s call for children to assist, volunteered to come. Since a boy was precisely needed, Chu Liang had no reason to refuse.

Originally, Venerable Wanfa had told Chu Yi that he could descend the mountain after ten years of education. Chu Yi was worried he might not be able to go, so he specifically went to ask for a permission.

Venerable Wanfa was quite lenient about it. He had set this rule for Chu Yi partly because he was concerned that Chu Yi, with unachieved cultivation, might easily perish if he traveled down the mountain too soon, and partly because he worried that his behavior might be reckless and potentially tarnish the reputation of the Sacred Mountain.

Since it was just a temporary descent to help Chu Liang, Wanfa did not stop him.

So these two "children," together nearly four thousand years old, were seated in the red palanquin of the Spirit Children, drifting down the river.

When they reached midstream, a hint of Yin energy invaded. Jiang Guo’s eyebrows lifted; due to her Ba origin, she was particularly sensitive to this aura.

"Hah—" An invisible ghostly shadow suddenly darted into the red palanquin, then revealed its ferocious true form. "Finally, some delicious human children again..."

Jiang Guo glanced at the ghostly figure with a trace of ferocity flickering in her eyes, as if she would strike like lightning the next moment.

Chu Yi quickly tapped Jiang Guo lightly, then exclaimed with "fear," "Ghost..."

He didn’t make a sound, as another fierce ghost figure emerged from behind him, covering his mouth with its hand.

"Why haven’t these two kids been given their medicine? They almost shouted out." The fierce ghost had half a body of knotted muscles while its lower half was a wisp of blue smoke. After emerging, it pulled Chu Yi downward, and with a thud—

The previous ghost figure also dragged Jiang Guo down, instantly disappearing inside the sedan.

However, the sedan was not empty; soon, two more ghost figures sprang out, taking the place where Chu Yi and the others had been sitting, and in the blink of an eye, they transformed into the appearance of two children.

Chu Yi and Jiang Guo, caught by the fierce ghost, plunged into the turbulent river waters, swimming all the way to its deepest part where there surprisingly lay an underwater cave dwelling. They brought the children in, and suddenly arrived in a cave chilled to the bone with yin energy.

Sitting at the top of the cave were two ghost kings, one black and one white, both towering three zhang tall, with horns on their heads, and a mouth full of fang-like teeth, looking extremely ferocious.

"Great King!" The two servant ghosts called out, "We’ve captured the two spirit children!"

"Good, hahaha," the black ghost king exclaimed. "Today we get to taste something fresh again."

Its huge eyes roved around and said, "This little girl seems somewhat dull, the little boy looks smarter, I’ll eat the boy."

Jiang Guo had just eaten and hadn’t yet wiped her mouth, her lips were stained cherry red, and her gaze fixed directly on the two ghost kings, indeed looking not very bright.

Watching the black ghost king’s large hand reaching toward Chu Yi, Jiang Guo suddenly stretched out her small hand and grabbed the black ghost king’s arm.

The black ghost king looked at her, "What are you doing?"

At first, it took it as a joke, but after trying briefly to break free, it found it was not so simple. How could this seemingly dull and silly child be so strong?

Her small hand, like an iron hoop!

"Waaah..." the black ghost king roared in anger, "Something’s wrong with this kid!"

At the same time, his left hand swung a large axe, chopping down at Jiang Guo.

Clang!

The axe fell, Jiang Guo didn’t even dodge, just took it on her head, and surprisingly, the blade bent into the shape of her skull upon impact.

"Damn, no wonder this kid seems not so bright, her skull must be made of indestructible metal." The black ghost king was utterly shocked, struggling to flee.

But would Jiang Guo give it the chance?

With a swing of her small hand, she flung the massive-bodied ghost king through the air, the black ghost king revealing a look of terror, but before hitting the ground, it was gone.

Bang!

Jiang Guo stretched out her small fist and with one punch burst the black ghost king’s head, wiping the entire face off, naturally erasing the expression too.

To its death, the black ghost king couldn’t understand how a human girl barely over ten years old could be so formidable.

If it knew that this human child was over two thousand years older than its grandmother, it might have had an epiphany.

The child standing here might just be the strongest kid under heaven!

Seeing the situation turning unfavorable, the white ghost king escaped swiftly, transforming into a wisp of smoke attempting to flee. Chu Yi immediately launched two talismans, a flash of golden light and descending heavenly thunder struck, and the white ghost king screamed, crashing heavily back to the ground: "Ah!"

It tried to rise and struggle, but Chu Yi then lifted his hand and launched four spirit ropes, binding it to the ground. The white ghost king struggled fiercely, nearly breaking free, but by that time, Jiang Guo had already dealt with the black ghost king.

She seamlessly took over the white ghost king, leaping high, then coming down with one foot.

Boom—

The whole body of the white ghost king was stomped apart by a single foot.

The dozen or so minor ghosts around had already fled in all directions, but where could they escape from these two little terrors—especially Jiang Guo, who, when her killing nature arose, charged left and right, punching and kicking, rapidly bursting all the ghosts in the cave dwelling.

Bang bang bang bang...

"Senior Sister, it’s me!" Amidst a series of explosive sounds, Chu Yi’s shout stopped Jiang Guo’s rampage.

Apparently, she had gotten carried away in her killing spree, attacking on sight, and nearly landed a punch on Chu Yi as well. Thankfully, he shouted in time, preventing the punch from making contact.

Feeling the chilling fist wind, Chu Yi couldn’t help but feel a lingering fear.

Goodness.

She even hit her own people when flustered.

Senior Sister is clearly born of the Jiang Family, how can she do things that seem like only the Xia Family, who change their names and grow up in Shu Mountain and become Peak Masters, could do?
