Heavenly Dao Formula

The moment Xia Fan saw the fire, he knew that something was going to go wrong.

He had no choice but to give up performing the spell, and threw himself towards a pillar beside him, the flames flew past his cheeks, the scalding heat wave made his skin painful, and the flying sparks ignited his collar and cuffs.

Relying on the wooden pillars to block the flames from the pursuit, Xia Fan hurriedly took off the burning alchemist robe.

If he had been a little later, or had used Thunder forcibly, he might have turned into a Burning Man by now.

What was that just now!

In Xia Fan's impression, there is only one way of casting spells that is close to him.

——That is "ninjutsu".

The woman turned her head and used the flames to push back Li who was chasing him, then took out a dagger from her arms, and stared at Xia Fan who was behind the pillar.

"Xia Fan!"

Seeing that the reinforcements were too late, Li threw the dagger he had snatched from the other party towards the pillar.

Xia Fan took advantage of the opportunity to pull out the dagger, and put his hands horizontally, barely blocking the downward thrust of the woman who raised her head high - this close-range fight also made him realize how strong the opponent is. If he is not an alchemist, or if he has less time to practice entraining qi for a few years, the enemy will be able to insert the tip of the dagger into his forehead with just his hand strength.

And within this distance, he also saw clearly where the strangeness of the dagger was - it had double-sided blades, a sharp rhombus shape, and a short and straight handle, resembling a kunai!

"Why won't you be charmed by me?" Qingzi breathed out angrily. When they were face to face, Xia Fan could see the sparkle in the other person's eyes, as if water was about to drip.

"Charm? Don't be kidding... see my companion? She is... ten thousand times more attractive than you!"

"Really? Then please go to hell." Qingzi opened his bright red lips, and pulled out a thin blade from under his tongue.

If the blade is cut to the throat, the barely formed balance of power will collapse immediately.

But that delicate balance holds true for enemies too!

"Your weapon...appears to be made of iron..."

The other party frowned, as if saying "so what".

Xia Fan took a deep breath, and growled loudly: "The shock technique returns, Liu Guang!"

This is a first-level alchemy that does not rely on foreign objects!

In order to strengthen his thoughts to the extreme, he uttered the name of the alchemy in its entirety—the situation that Mr. Zhang said does not affect the overall situation is probably now!

A flash of lightning suddenly emerged from his palm, and followed the dagger to meet the dagger——

"Crack!"

With a soft sound, a group of dazzling electric sparks exploded between the two, and Xia Fan felt a tingling and numbness in his palm at the same time.

However, as the direct recipient of alchemy, Qingzi's experience is obviously stronger.

She showed a painful expression, and unconsciously let go of the dagger with her hands, and her palms were already scorched red!

The power of the first heavy technique has been greatly reduced, and he has limited number of practice times, not to mention killing him with a single blow. At this moment, he can't even penetrate the body, at most it can only burn the epidermis.

But it was enough to break the deadlock.

As soon as the opponent let go, the pressure on Xia Fan was greatly reduced. He raised his right foot and kicked the opponent flying. And Qingzi's landing point was just in front of Li who had bypassed the flame and was rushing over.

She turned over and got up, her five fingers quickly formed seals, trying to repeat the old trick——

It's just that what appeared in front of her this time was no longer a fox demon, but a huge fox with no friends! Li's changes caused the beams above his head to be broken, and the floor under his feet were also broken. For a while, the whole room was crumbling, and Hu Huairen also showed a look of horror for the first time.

"Monster... a monster!"

Li raised his front palm and swept towards Qingzi with a crushing force.

Any furniture that stood in the way of the sweep was smashed to pieces.

Although the target's original location was still shrouded in a cloud of smoke, the scope of this attack had already involved a small half of the room - only a figure was photographed back from the edge of the smoke, and slammed into the pillar.

"Ah...cough!" Qingzi spat out a mouthful of blood.

Judging from the cracked pillar behind her, this blow was definitely not light.

The opponent struggled to get up from the ground, but failed after several attempts.

Xia Fan knew that he couldn't relax his vigilance at such a time. Facing an enemy with deadly weapons hidden all over his body, it was undoubtedly an urgent matter to make up the knife.

If he can't be cruel now, it will be Li He himself who will be killed by then.

He clenched the handle of the knife, took a step forward, and stabbed hard at the woman's chest!

The blade almost didn't encounter too much resistance, and it went straight into her body.

A warm current soaked his palms.

It was only then that Xia Fan noticed that on the open chest of the other party, there was a small blooming flower tattooed—five petals arranged in a pentagon, three of which were red, as if smeared with blood.

"I said you... did a good job."

Qingzi grinned at the corner of his blood-stained mouth, grabbed Xia Fan's arm suddenly with one hand, and took out a talisman from his bosom with the other.

As soon as the talisman appeared, sparks burst out.

"Xia Fan, are you okay?"

Li, who had changed back into a human form, wanted to get closer, but Xia Fan sternly stopped him, "Don't come here!"

Qingzi opened his mouth slightly, and murmured in a weak voice, "Although dead... still alive..."

He pulled out the dagger, tried his best to cut off the arm that was holding him, then rushed to Li who was one meter away, and brought her to the ground together.

At this moment, a violent explosion occurred behind him!

The turbulent air wave directly lifted the two of them and threw them to the base of the opposite wall. The pieces of wood shattered by the shock wave rained down, crackling everywhere, and it took a few breaths before they regained their composure.

"Are you crazy?" Li grabbed Xia Fan, gritted his teeth, and said, "You know that monsters have far stronger recovery power than humans, so why do you take me to avoid them together?"

"Ahem...otherwise what should I do," Xia Fan forcefully smiled, "Hiding behind you and using you as a shield?"

"This is the most correct choice!"

"But it's not something a companion would do." He patted her hand, "Don't worry, this shock...ahem...you can't die."

It's just a little numb in the back.

Does that count as real men never looking back at explosions?

It's just that I didn't expect that what the woman took out was actually a detonating talisman.

There were chaotic shouts and clappers outside the house.

Apparently the series of fights just now caught the attention of the servants, and at this moment, most of the county magistrate's people are probably rushing here.

"We have to go." Li urged.

However, Xia Fan found that it was difficult for him to stand up straight, his feet seemed to not belong to him, and he couldn't use his strength no matter what.

At the same time, dizziness also swept over, and the vision that was clear just now gradually became blurred.

This is... the aftermath of the explosion?

Li's heart sank, and he turned Xia Fan over, only to find that a few pieces of wood had pierced through his black robe and further penetrated into his back.

A great panic welled up in her heart.

"You go first..." Xia Fan took a breath, "I'll follow after a short rest."

She shook her head, wanting to take him away like when she came, but she was afraid that he would not be able to withstand such violent shaking.

Li Shenshen understands that compared to demons, human beings are too fragile.

"You still want to leave? You can't go anywhere!" Hu Huairen, who was covered in ashes, had just recovered from the explosion. Perhaps it was the sound of footsteps downstairs that gave him courage. His eyes howled, "I want to torture you to death little by little, so as to comfort Qingzi's spirit in heaven!"

While he was speaking, several servants with sticks and simple knives poured into the house.

"My lord, are you all right?"

"There are thieves breaking into the house, ring the alarm!"

"Come and protect Lord Hu!"

"Why did you come here now? Hurry up and catch these two people!" Hu Huairen stomped his feet again and again, "How dare you collude with monsters to make trouble, this alchemist's skin can't protect you!"

Li opened his five claws and let out a threatening roar.

Thinking of the giant fox just now, Zhixian couldn't help shrinking back, but seeing that the other party never left the alchemist's side, he felt a lot of confidence in his heart.

"Deal with this fox demon for me first! Whoever can subdue it, I will reward you with a hundred taels!"

Hearing such a huge bounty, all the servants couldn't help but feel ready to move.

"Who dares to touch them?" Suddenly, a cold female voice intervened, making everyone present stunned.

Xia Fan followed the prestige with increasingly hazy eyes, and found that the person who came was actually Shangguan Cai.

Thanks to eMpty for rewarding the leader! Meme da(づ￣ 3￣)づ
