The Empress's No.1 Lackey

Chapter 1018 - 570: Senior, Please Show Yourself! (Part 2)

Kongzhu raised his head, his lifeless eyes meeting Zhao Douan’s gaze, the lines on his face twitching as he smiled and said, "Master Zhao, since Junior Brother Guangyuan can’t make a move, I’ll have to take care of you myself."

Zhao Douan didn’t dare be careless. He put away the Fearless Stick, gripping the hilt of the Chasing Saber with one hand, while secretly clutching the Mystic Turtle Seal in his sleeve with the other.

Without looking aside, he whispered, "Let’s attack together, incapacitate him."

He prepared to join forces with Ji Yue and Jin Jian to strike, giving the monk no opportunity to act.

Kongzhu seemed to have sensed his intent to kill. With a faint smile, he wasted no more words. Suddenly, his dry right hand flipped over, and the heavy alms bowl in his hand turned upside down towards the ground.

However, it did not fall but remained stuck to his palm, as he said,

"This humble monk is not as fierce and brave as Junior Brother Guangyuan, weak in body, relying on this bowl to survive. If Master Zhao can take it, I concede."

While speaking, Buddha Light overflowed from the bowl, and something began to fall out...

It was a Buddha Bead.

Zhao Douan was taken aback for a moment. From the bowl fell Buddha Beads, the size of pigeon eggs, which did not descend but hovered in the air.

"Not good..." A strong sense of danger surged in his heart.

Suddenly, the Buddha Beads, like bullets, exploded through the air, rushing towards his face in the blink of an eye!

Zhao Douan was startled, but Ji Yue was the first to act.

The socially anxious female mage pushed both hands forward, and a gentle flow of water appeared out of nowhere, condensing into a water curtain in front of Zhao Douan.

"Bang!"

The first pigeon-egg-sized Buddha Bead hit the water curtain, embedding itself an inch deep. After spinning for a moment and exhausting its kinetic energy, it hovered in the air.

"Bang!"

Then came the second.

"Bang, bang, bang..."

One by one, the Buddha Beads howled in, penetrating the water curtain at a remarkable speed.

The hastily gathered water wall was becoming precarious under the series of impacts.

Ji Yue’s black hair flicked back as white pupils revealed anxiety, stammering, "I can’t hold him off..."

As she spoke, another Buddha Bead blasted in, piercing through the water wall, but in the night, a ripple of light surged, dissipating the Bead’s energy, causing it to fall to the ground.

Jin Jian intervened!

The young priestess hovered in the air, her priest robe embroidered with golden threads flapping in the breeze, exposing two tender white legs beneath.

The girl with golden-rimmed glasses had a serious expression, gripping a magic wand with both hands. At the wand’s tip, a golden single eye restlessly rolled.

Behind her, a phantom of a bright moon slowly emerged, and the starlit moonlight gathered around her, stirring up wave after wave of moonlight tides.

Magic Girl Xiao Jinzi... Zhao Douan’s eyes lit up; he was very familiar with this magic.

The first time he fought alongside Jin Jian, dealing with a priest wanted by Prince Jing Mansion, she had used it.

But at that time, Jin Jian was only a Divine Chapter.

Tonight, she was a Worldly Realm beneath a bright moon.

"Splash..."

The moonlight tides surged, blocking the oncoming Buddha Beads, giving Ji Yue a moment to breathe.

Yet Kongzhu remained calm, unmoving, as if his alms bowl contained endless Buddha Beads, never running out.

"This bald donkey... is very strong. I can only resist with all my strength. His Mana is thicker than mine, I can’t hold on for long."

Jin Jian’s small face was stern, yet her voice pierced into Zhao Douan’s ears.

Both she and Ji Yue were only at the initial stage of the Worldly Realm! Even though Jin Jian’s cultivation increased in the night, Ji Yue was weakened by the lack of water environment.

Thus, the two together could barely hold off Kongzhu’s high-grade techniques.

"I know. You two don’t need to attack, just protect me, help me get close to him!" Zhao Douan gripped the Chasing Saber, his Qi Sea boiling.

Staring intently at Kongzhu, he spoke softly.

As long as the two women protected him, at the moment of closing in, he would summon Pei Niannu without reservation, unleashing a strike of dual Worldly Realms combined.

Such a strike, he had used during the destruction of the Divine Dragon Temple, was extremely powerful.

But the cost was also immense.

So he had to capture the crucial moment, catching the opponent off guard.

But Kongzhu seemed to have discerned his intent, watching Zhao Douan approach under the "cannon fire."

Kongzhu monk smiled slightly, right hand pressing the alms bowl, maintaining the flow of Mana, while his free left hand took out a palm-sized jade box from his robe.

The jade box was crystal clear, sealed, with unknown contents.

Kongzhu casually tossed the jade box into the air!

The jade box opened with a "click" in mid-air, spewing Buddha Light.

Amid the Buddha Light, a peculiar "life" appeared prominently!

A strong sense of crisis welled up in Zhao Douan’s heart inexplicably. He stopped abruptly, looking up in astonishment to find a "young girl" of about three feet tall stepping out of the void.

No...

It was not a human girl, her entire body unclothed, her skin crystal clear, astonishingly half-transparent!

Through the skin, her veins, organs, all visible, extremely bizarre!

And key parts of the girl’s body, along with her cheeks, were covered by a few azure scales. She bore silver hair, with two small "horns" protruding from her head.

Her eyes were tightly closed, as if in slumber.

"Ah, it’s the Dragon Girl!" Jin Jian suddenly gasped in surprise, her glasses almost falling off!

"What is that?" Zhao Douan asked, this was beyond his knowledge.

Jin Jian quickly explained, "A special kind of Wild God, extremely rare, born to mortal pregnant women who mate with the Divine. This Wild God possesses spirituality, capable of dragging people into dreams, killing them in dreams, turning the dreamer into a mortal with no strength... Quickly close your eyes... Do not look at her directly, otherwise..."
