Little Sorcerer, Divine Doctor

Chapter 1226 - 53: Yama Fox Claw vs. Yama Fox Claw

It’s not that I haven’t fought before, but I’ve never seen someone fight regardless with a hostage in hand.

Are hostages worthless these days?

Although Elder Liu was shocked, ultimately age and experience prevail.

Violent fighting spirit exploded from him.

"Yama Fox Claw!" Elder Liu shouted angrily, instantly displaying the Liu Family’s inherited Sky Fox technique.

Though both use Yama Fox Claw, Liu Xueyu and Elder Liu’s methods are completely different.

Elder Liu’s hands flickered with a bloody shadow, and the fox claws rooted like ancient trees, tearing through the air and striking toward Yun Sheng.

He and Yun Sheng’s figures entangled, and then quickly separated.

In the instant they crossed paths, Elder Liu saw a streak of silver flash before his eyes.

Boom—

A powerful force wave collided, and both figures simultaneously retreated over ten steps.

Elder Liu initially thought victory was certain, but upon clashing with Yun Sheng, he was surprised to find the Bo Bo he originally grabbed in hand had vanished.

Upon glancing over, Yun Sheng’s right hand had transformed into a fox claw equally emanating strong force waves, though compared to Elder Liu’s blood-stained menacing fox claw, Yun Sheng’s Yama Fox Claw was different.

Yun Sheng’s fox claw shimmered like jade, akin to a jade sculpture.

Due to a shorter cultivation period, Yun Sheng’s Yama Fox Claw was slightly less powerful than Elder Liu’s, and at this moment, her jade-like sharp claw faintly revealed a scar, with blood seeping out.

Though slightly inferior in strength, Yun Sheng had the advantage in speed; she had cleverly retrieved Bo Bo while enduring Elder Liu’s claw attack earlier.

Granddaughter Liu Xueyu trained for years to achieve the Yama Fox Claw, and yet this half-beast...

Elder Liu’s heart was filled with shock, with nothing else remaining.

She was faster than him!

Elder Liu immediately saw that Yun Sheng used the Yama Fox Claw.

She really learned the Yama Fox Claw!

Elder Liu’s heart was incredibly shaken, realizing what Qin Yue said was not false; this little brat from Cangdu truly learned the Yama Fox Claw in just three days.

He would never have guessed that Yun Sheng’s quick mastery of the Yama Ghost Claw had its reasons, as Yun Sheng had once practiced Yanling’s Hand.

The Yanling’s Hand passed down by the Yan Family’s ancestor was originally intended to enhance hand speed during acupuncture and surgery, but Yun Sheng discovered during her Yama Fox Claw cultivation that combining Yanling’s Hand with Yama Fox Claw achieved unexpected results.

This explained why she could cultivate the Yama Fox Claw so quickly and possess greater hand speed than Elder Liu.

It seemed like only three days of learning, but in reality, it accumulated over decades from Yun Sheng’s experiences in both lives practicing Yanling’s Hand.

Thus, speaking of hand speed, throughout the Wuji Continent and Bahuang Continent, there were hardly any who could match Yun Sheng.

After snatching Bo Bo back, Yun Sheng worriedly glanced at Bo Bo a few times. Seeing it unhurt relieved her heart.

"Little brat, you have some skill. Even if you rescue your demon beast, so what? Don’t forget, I still have your Medicine Gathering Boy," Elder Liu said calmly after losing the hostage.

"Oh? Are you sure the person is still in your hand?" Yun Sheng flicked her hair disdainfully.

"What’s the meaning of this!" Elder Liu was startled, could it be...

"Don’t worry, I said I came alone, and I definitely came as one ’person’. I didn’t bring any Cangdu aides," Yun Sheng’s dark eyes flashed.

"Even if you brought aides, so what? I’ll tell you, that Medicine Gathering Boy is locked in a secret room. Without my presence, no one can rescue her," Elder Liu sneered.

A sound of bodies hitting the ground was heard behind him, as several guards of the Liu Residence were thrown out.

Earlier, Liu Xueyu had run outside, now pale-faced, and was held in the hands of "Yun Sheng".

"What? You!" Elder Liu’s smile froze as he looked at Yun Sheng in front and then at the masked woman identical to "Yun Sheng".

"Grandfather, that’s a Sky Fox Avatar; this brat must have learned the Hua Family’s Fox Shadow Traceless," Liu Xueyu angrily ran out earlier.

But just after she ran out of the courtyard, her vision went dark, and a ghostly shadow appeared before her.

That figure was indeed "Yun Sheng".

Only then did Elder Liu and Liu Xueyu realize Yun Sheng, while meeting with Elder Liu on one hand, had another "Yun Sheng" infiltrated the Liu Residence to find Yingying’s whereabouts.

Yun Sheng came alone to the Liu Residence, already wary of Elder Liu’s tricks.

But her "Yun Sheng" avatar searched the entire Liu Residence without finding Little Yingying, just as Liu Xueyu happened to run out, caught right in time.

"Elder Liu, now we both hold hostages. But Liu Xueyu’s life means more to you than my Medicine Gathering Boy," Yun Sheng smiled, standing aside.

Elder Liu trembled with anger, never had anyone dared to treat him like this after so many years in the Sky Fox Tribe Country.

This damned heavenly fox brat.

But even with intense hatred, Elder Liu understood that with Yun Sheng simultaneously mastering Yama Fox Claw and Fox Shadow Traceless, plus a Sky Fox "avatar", if a fight ensued, he had little confidence in rescuing his granddaughter unharmed.

Helpless, Elder Liu turned back to the secret room and brought Little Yingying out.

"Master," Little Yingying was scared out of her wits, locked in the secret room.

But to avoid worrying Yun Sheng, she held back her tears.

"I’ve brought her, I’ll count to three, and we release the hostages simultaneously," Elder Liu said with a stiff face.

He lifted Little Yingying while the Sky Fox avatar "Yun Sheng" also lifted Liu Xueyu, each walking forward.

Yun Sheng remained vigilant, relieved Elder Liu didn’t play any tricks.

"Elder Liu, today’s enmity, I, Yun Sheng, will never forget," Yun Sheng narrowed her eyes, holding Little Yingying and Bo Bo, ready to retreat.

But just then, outside the Liu Residence, a loud boom sounded as a massive Magic Array enveloped the Liu Residence.

"Hahaha, little brat, you really think Liu Residence is a place to come and go as you please? Today, either you agree to my terms, or you’ll die here!" Elder Liu said sinisterly, having long set a trap outside.

"If I wish to leave, no one can stop me," Yun Sheng said, as a terrifying Divine Lotus Karma Fire began to spread beside her.

The Divine Lotus Karma Fire scorched the Magic Array’s magic waves, creating hollow openings instantly.

"Tch, quite a spectacle, but won’t you care for the lives of the one person and one beast beside you!" Elder Liu said, and Bo Bo and Little Yingying emitted cries of pain.
