Chapter 2751 - 2752: Counterplot
No, they can’t die here. The people at the posthouse are waiting for them. The children are waiting for them. Their parents are waiting for them. They can’t lose!
Bai Ruozhu gritted her teeth tightly, nearly fainting several times.
Suddenly, she thought of Master Pudeng’s severed hand and hurriedly took it out.
When they arrived at the Golden Wings Clan, they handed Master Pudeng’s golden body to the clan leader, allowing him to be buried on Nian Mountain. But Luan Xin broke off one hand and left it with her, saying it could repel evil filth.
Poisonous insects fear the golden body most, and that severed hand should be enough to intimidate them.
She struggled to take out the severed hand. As soon as it touched her hand, it made a sizzling sound, and her palm’s skin and flesh burned, emitting white smoke.
The severed golden hand is the nemesis of poisonous insects, and since her hand carries poisonous insect poison, it gets scorched on contact.
She let out a muffled groan of pain. Jiang Yichun rushed over, "Let me hold it."
She quickly tossed it to Jiang Yichun, then crawled back two steps, fearing any contact with him.
Sure enough, once the poisonous insects were discovered, the severed golden hand shone brightly—some small insects turned to ash directly upon being illuminated, while larger ones retreated fearfully, instantly halting their attack.
Song Yi also seemed afraid of this golden light and quickly backed away.
"You actually have this!" He gritted his teeth fiercely, this was unexpected.
But he soon showed a look of realization, "No wonder you were able to restrain my poisonous insects before; you really don’t understand poisonous insect techniques, you were relying on the golden body."
"As long as I can kill you, it doesn’t matter what I use." Jiang Yichun said as he attacked Song Yi—now they must fight quickly.
Bai Ruozhu saw Fangzi’s condition worsening, and her anxiety grew.
"Achun, be careful." She reminded him, summoning Furball back to help Fangzi first.
Furball flew two circles around Fangzi and cried anxiously; it couldn’t kill the poisonous insect without harming Fangzi.
Suddenly, a slender hand reached out and grabbed Bai Ruozhu’s neck.
"You..." Bai Ruozhu looked at the woman with an evil aura in front of her; it was Xizi, who had just been hanging on the tree.
"Drop the golden body in your hand, or I’ll snap her neck." Xizi shouted at Jiang Yichun.
Jiang Yichun’s action halted, and he quickly sprinted toward Bai Ruozhu.
"If you don’t want her to die, stop!" Xizi’s hand tightened, her crimson nails cutting Bai Ruozhu’s snow-white neck, and a stream of fresh blood flowed down.
"Achun... don’t throw it..." Bai Ruozhu said with difficulty.
Song Yi came forward with a fierce smile, "He can’t bear for you to die."
Bai Ruozhu looked at Jiang Yichun, her eyes subtly shifting direction, and Jiang Yichun instantly understood, blinking slightly.
"Let her go, and I’ll throw it." Jiang Yichun said.
Xizi laughed, tucking her disordered hair behind her ear, acting very alluring; her nails’ crimson hue was truly hard to ignore.
Bai Ruozhu really didn’t know how they could have overlooked such a detail while Xizi was hanging. Thinking carefully, at the time Xizi’s hands were covered by long sleeves.
"Alright." Xizi was very confident, as if catching Bai Ruozhu again would be no problem.
She slowly loosened her grip, and Jiang Yichun threw the severed golden hand in the direction Bai Ruozhu indicated.
Bai Ruozhu hurriedly ran toward him, but dared not touch him.
"So you didn’t actually send anyone to the posthouse," Bai Ruozhu clutched her neck and asked with difficulty.
Xizi smiled faintly, "You deployed thousands waiting for us; would we be foolish enough to fall for it? Moreover, if we kill you, the posthouse will be utterly defeated."
"Too bad we suspected you from the start; seeing you being hung, we were actually careless." Bai Ruozhu gritted her teeth and said.
Song Yi laughed heartily, "Comparing wits with me, you’re still too green."
Suddenly, the look of pain disappeared from Bai Ruozhu’s face, replaced by a smug smile, "Is that so?"
A streak of golden light suddenly flew at Song Yi, the severed golden hand thrown directly at him.
A wretched scream echoed, and Song Yi screamed in agony.
The black panther then leapt up, biting down on Xizi’s arm.
Earlier, Bai Ruozhu had indicated to Jiang Yichun to throw it where Xiaohei was hiding; Song Yi and the others thought the severed golden hand was thrown far away and wouldn’t be retrieved quickly. But Xiaohei could swiftly bring it back, just in time for an ambush.
"Courting death!" Xizi’s crimson nails elongated, fiercely stabbing at Xiaohei.
Xiaohei instantly sprang to one side, dodging her attack.
"You weren’t poisoned?" Xizi couldn’t believe it; she had seen clearly from close range just now.
"Was poisoned, but cured again." Bai Ruozhu smiled, "Quanxin, it’s your turn."
The light-green Quanxin flew out and cheerfully danced in the air, delighted to have a bounty to feast on.
One after another, poisonous insects were drawn to it, quickly devoured, even their corpses vanished.
"Divine Spring Spirit?" Xizi’s eyes gleamed with greed, "With it, who needs the Dragon Ball?"
Excitedly, she reached for Quanxin, which leisurely dodged, as if teasing her.
Bai Ruozhu and Jiang Yichun together attacked Song Yi, whose power was greatly diminished after being injured by the golden body. He anxiously shouted at Xizi, "What are you doing? Come help me first!"
Unfortunately, Xizi cared more for what she wanted and ignored Song Yi’s life, focusing solely on Quanxin; ten nails simultaneously flew out, trapping Quanxin within.
"Master, save me!" Quanxin signaled Bai Ruozhu.
Bai Ruozhu quickly formed a seal and cast a magic technique, knocking off two nails. Quanxin seized the chance and successfully escaped.
It didn’t attack Xizi, instead continuing to hover and devour poisonous insects. In the short time, Song Yi’s insects were half devoured.
Furball wasn’t worried about it; since Quanxin consuming poisonous insects could condense spiritual liquid, it would have plenty to eat later.
It just watched over Fangzi, in case the insect inside her belly tried to escape.
Bai Ruozhu glanced back at Fangzi’s situation, "Xiaohei, bring the severed golden hand over."
Xiaohei understood, took the severed hand, and placed it beside Fangzi.
The golden light shone brightly, and the insect inside Fangzi’s belly struggled frantically. Fangzi screamed in agony as if experiencing childbirth contractions, which was truly terrifying.
Bai Ruozhu was burning with anxiety but couldn’t neglect the battle at hand and could only entrust Xiaohei to protect Fangzi.
With a puff, Jiang Yichun’s long sword stabbed Song Yi’s right eye; as the sword withdrew, it carried an eyeball, immediately followed by a swarm of poisonous insects that flew out.
If they hadn’t encountered many poisonous insects before, they would undoubtedly be throwing up at this moment.
Song Yi screamed in anguish, while Bai Ruozhu seized the opportunity to rush forward, hitting his left eye with a magic technique sword, black blood spewing out, and his left eyeball flew out as well.
"I want you to die with me!" He furiously roared.
