Chapter 392: Chapter 241: Duel on a Rainy Night

"White, it really is you!"

Sha Lifei cursed angrily, "You were all buddy-buddy with us before, and now you’re backstabbing with a hidden gun. Are you even human?"

Bai Ruoxu shook his head with a smile, "Haha, Brother Sha, you’re no rookie to the pugilistic world. Saying this, what’s the point?"

As he spoke, he began to load gunpowder.

Sha Lifei finally got a clear view of the Divine Fire Gun.

The Divine Fire Gun had a massive stock at the back, made of Black Rosewood, with dragon patterns inlaid with silver metal.

The barrel was long, with a walnut-sized caliber, crafted from spiritual materials from Cave Heaven Blessed Land, strong enough to handle the power of the new gunpowder.

Most distinctively, the rear of the barrel was a detachable module, rectangular with engraved Eight Trigrams and various talismans.

Bai Ruoxu detached that module from the barrel and took out another one from his waist, attaching it.

Sha Lifei had seen the blueprint, knowing this was the Divine Fire Bomb.

The court had Mo Family craftsmen create the Divine Fire Gun, naturally more exquisite than ordinary flintlock guns.

Each gun could be equipped with over a dozen Divine Fire Bombs.

Usually, the new gunpowder and bullets were loaded into the Divine Fire Bomb, and in battle, only the bomb clip needed to be replaced, greatly speeding up operations and allowing combat even in the rain.

Seeing Sha Lifei’s gaze fixed, Bai Ruoxu smiled slightly, "Brother Sha, it seems you are quite interested in this firearm too."

"Why not join us, hand over the goods, maybe you can get one yourself and have some fun."

"Spit!"

Sha Lifei spat, sneering coldly, "Only a fool would believe that!"

Bai Ruoxu chuckled faintly, "I didn’t expect you to believe, you alone wouldn’t qualify to join us."

Saying this, he turned to look at the Red Lady, "Senior, are you ready?"

The Red Lady grinned, revealing sharp teeth, then raised her hand and snapped her fingers.

Snap!

A crisp sound echoed.

Sha Lifei and the Wind Daoist instantly froze.

Not good, they’ve been hit!

Their bodies trembled, veins bulged on their foreheads, struggling to move but unable to budge an inch.

Facing the old demon Red Lady with profound Dao, they were still too green, thinking they could threaten her with the Blood Jade Cong without consequence.

In reality, when the Red Lady had removed her Dragon and Phoenix Handkerchief, she had already shaken it gently, spreading Gu Poison into the air.

Simultaneously, she intentionally revealed a fearsome face to divert attention.

This was a secret from Ancient Colorful Magic, redirecting attention, substituting things, which Red Lady applied to spells in a way no one could defend against.

Of course, the Gu Poison still required time to take effect due to the distance.

Bai Ruoxu, being an expert with poisons, noticed this and deliberately stepped out to chat idly with Sha Lifei, allowing the two to be ensnared.

"Heh heh."

The Red Lady’s eyes were bloodthirsty and cold, laughing with an odd voice, "Did the little official on the ground think playing dead could fool me?"

She had awakened the Eye Divine Power, seeing the blood flow clearly, though puzzled by how Li Yan survived being shot, it didn’t hinder her from taking action.

Before she finished speaking, her foot suddenly exerted force.

Swish!

The Red Wedding Dress fluttered, instantly appearing in front of everyone.

But just then, Li Yan, lying on the ground, raised his left hand.

Clink clink, the Soul Hook whizzed out, simultaneously heaving himself up, drawing the Duan Chen Blade and slashing down.

Even with the Eye Divine Power, the Red Lady couldn’t anticipate Li Yan’s trick, and was immediately entangled by the Soul Hook.

However, it also surprised Li Yan.

An eerie yin sha surrounded the Red Lady, and although the Soul Hook encircled her, it couldn’t directly penetrate her body.

This Red Wedding Dress was a formidable Magic Artifact!

Li Yan realized this instantly.

Of course, he didn’t pin all his hopes on the Soul Hook.

His Dao was indeed limited, and the Soul Hook was a new Divine Skill inherited from a cheap master, just starting out.

A Tibetan Monk had once evaded it using a Magic Artifact at the Zhu Family Castle’s Phosphate Mine.

The real lethal strike was the Duan Chen Blade.

Slash!

Without any obstruction, the blade pierced the Red Lady’s chest directly, injecting twelve streaks of Yin Thunder with crackling sound.

"Ah!"

A shrill scream, and the Red Lady dissipated into smoke.

This creature wasn’t human!

Li Yan’s eyes flickered slightly, inwardly alarmed.

He sensed the Duan Chen Blade had only pierced the Red Wedding Dress, the opponent’s body being extraordinarily tough and emitting a foul zombie-like stench.

The Red Lady’s flesh was almost like a zombie’s, piercing the heart, the Yin Thunder attack wasn’t fatal, but allowed her to escape using Escape Skill.

Without hesitation, Li Yan seized the Blood Jade Cong from Sha Lifei, placing the Duan Chen Blade atop it.

The situation stalemated once again.

Bai Ruoxu, who had been about to fire, frowned and shook his head, "Brother Li, is it necessary?"

"Hand this over to us, and let’s part ways, what do you say?"

Li Yan sneered but remained silent.

He activated the Storing God, causing the tassel of the Duan Chen Blade to quiver.

Jingle jingle!

The malicious energy overflowed, disrupting the Gu Worm inside Sha Lifei and the Wind Daoist, causing them to squat and vomit.

In the black mucus, white worms wriggled.

Though the Gu Poison wasn’t neutralized, at least they regained their mobility.

"Damn it!"

Sha Lifei cursed harshly, swiftly raising his flintlock gun, while beside him, the Wind Daoist fumbled hurriedly, retrieving three pills from his bosom.

Swallowing one himself, he tossed the others to Sha Lifei and Li Yan.

Being the temple priest of the City God Temple, though his Dao wasn’t impressive, he had a few life-saving items.

After Sha Lifei swallowed one, he visibly improved.

Li Yan had already detoxified himself using the Daluo Dharma Body, ignoring it as he quickly pulled the other two away.

On the other side, red smoke ascended, and the Red Lady reappeared, but her state seemed off.

"Kill! Kill kill!"
