No taboos

Chapter 26: Battle at Plum Blossom Pond (Part )
Dan Xiu suddenly pushed his hands towards Xu Yuan, and the fist-sized golden ball, with a sharp sound of breaking through the wind, turned into a silver line and pierced Xu Yuan's face.

Xu Yuan gritted his teeth and frowned, with a look of risking his life on his face, as if he knew he couldn't avoid it, so he shot out his golden pill with all his strength.

After shooting the golden pill, Xu Yuan bent down, twisted his body, and rushed towards a huge rock next to him with a whoosh.

Dan Xiu smiled secretly, it seemed that he wanted to stop him and buy himself time to escape.

What a pity, you were wrong this time, you are doomed!
In an instant, the two Danxiu golden pills collided between the two of them.

Snapped!
Dan Xiu's golden pill exploded and instantly transformed into a short sword! The short sword had no handle, was only one foot long, and had blades on both ends!
When one reaches the seventh level of alchemy, one can "shape" the golden pills that he has refined!
Although he has not yet reached the seventh level, he has already touched the threshold and can barely shape it. However, his control is a bit slow, so it can only be used as a surprise killing move and cannot be used frequently.

Almost at the same time, Xu Yuan's golden pill also exploded.

Xu Yuan’s golden pill was only the size of a longan, and was far inferior to his own in both weight and quality.

We had collided several times before, and this time I used all my strength, so it was normal for the little ball to be broken.

But immediately after that, with a loud "bang", Xu Yuan's golden pill did not shatter but exploded!

A huge cloud of smoke exploded on the spot!
The power of the explosion was extremely terrifying. The air wave instantly hit Dan Xiu's cheek, blowing his hair and beard straight back.

Dan Xiu was puzzled: How could this be?

This feeling... is just like the shrapnel used in the custom-made cannons made by our guild for the Beidu Shenji Camp!

The sudden huge explosion blew Dan Xiu's golden ball, which had turned into a dagger, away and pierced diagonally into the soil several feet away.

It has sunk deeply into the soil, leaving only a small, narrow hole.

Dan Xiu snorted, even if you have such a strange method, it only scared me. Isn’t it still a dead end next?
He was about to draw out the Jinwan dagger and cut Xu Yuan's neck.

But when he moved his hands, he felt severe pain in his chest and abdomen!
He looked down and saw seven or eight densely packed wounds on his chest and stomach, with blood gushing out!

"What's going on..."

He looked up again and saw Xu Yuan hiding behind the huge rock, which was covered with small pits!

The boulder was ten feet farther away from the explosion than he was.

Even a huge rock is like this. I am not a martial artist, so my body is definitely not harder than a huge rock.

"That kid... turns out..."

He roughly understood it, but he was no longer able to do anything. His legs went limp and he fell backwards with a thud. Blood gushed out from seven or eight wounds, and Dan Xiu died in grief.

Xu Yuan injected the "properties" of the elixir of artillery into the golden pill.

Although the golden pill is small, it was condensed by Xu Yuan using a large amount of metal ore. After being infused with the characteristics of artillery powder, its power is greater than the shrapnel of a craftsman-made cannon.

The tiny fragments after the golden pill exploded were so fast that people had no time to react.

Xu Yuan walked out from behind the boulder, secretly delighted at the powerful properties of the elixir.

It’s a pity that the inner elixir of his cannonball is too small, and this power can only be exerted three times, and now there are only two times left.

Xu Yuan looked up and saw that the sisters, the saint lady and the maid were still fighting by the pond.

The Saint Lady twisted her wrist, and the two-headed snake bell turned around. She rang the bell again, and this time it made a strange clanging sound. The previous ringing sound from the other end had made people feel clear-headed, but the ringing from this end made Xu Yuan feel dizzy and almost fell.

The water ghost sisters were more affected. Their bodies swayed like candles in the wind, and their figures became a little lighter. It seemed that their souls would be blown out at any time.

The Saint Lady was overjoyed. She had endured for so long, and finally her attack worked!
She raised the divine crossbow in her other hand and fired two arrows in quick succession.

The crossbow arrow with golden light shot towards the water ghost sisters.

They were too drowsy to dodge, and with two screams they were shot, falling into the pool with a splash.

The Saint Lady followed closely, and the magic crossbow in her hand had been replaced with a red gauze lampshade, which she flew towards the water ghost sisters.

"Catch these two water ghosts and turn them into ghost soldiers for you..." The Saint Lady was speaking to the maid when the maid suddenly sensed something and her expression changed drastically, "Saint Lady, retreat quickly! These two are not ghosts..."

But it was too late. There was a splash in the pool, and two yellow shadows rushed out. In their pointed fox mouths, each held a golden crossbow arrow.

As the waves came over, the Saint Lady suddenly felt a sharp pain in her body. She hurriedly pressed a certain place on her arm, and with a bang, hundreds of ox-hair needles shot out from the cylinders hidden on her shoulders!
With a fox's cry, two yellow shadows retreated into the pool.

The maid grabbed the Saint Lady's belt from behind and quickly dragged her back several feet.

The Saint Lady looked down and saw that her clothes on her chest were torn, leaving several deep claw marks on her snow-white skin. Her flesh was turned up and blood was flowing out uncontrollably!
"These two beasts!" The Saint Lady was furious, and her blood suddenly surged, and more blood flowed out of the wound.

At the same time, the Saint Lady felt dizzy and had to rely on the maid to regain her balance.

The maid gnashed her teeth and said, "The claws of these two beasts are poisonous!"

She quickly took out a few pills and gave them to the Saint to eat. At the same time, the shadows under her feet moved, and several ghost soldiers hid inside.

Sure enough, a faint yellow shadow suddenly jumped out from the bushes on the side, and several ghost soldiers suddenly pounced out from the figure and entangled with the yellow shadow.

After a few sharp fox calls, Huang Ying realized that he could not gain any advantage, so he whooshed back into the bushes.

The ghost soldiers were about to chase, when suddenly another man stood up from the bushes, opened his mouth and a fire dragon rolled up a ghost soldier. The ghost soldier let out a shrill ghost cry, and was instantly burned to death without a trace!

At some point, Xu Yuan quietly came over and hid in the grass.

The maid looked at the young man with complicated eyes, feeling mixed emotions.

She couldn't help but think that if she had not neglected to check the Saint Lady's sedan chair that night and found this guy, she would not have suffered such a heavy loss now.

But who could have imagined that a small servant in the backyard of an inn in a remote village could force himself and the Saint Lady into a desperate situation.

A menial servant, isn't it just something that any small fry can use?

You could just die, why are you resisting so fiercely?
It was too late to regret. The maid who was supporting the Saint Lady suddenly turned her head and her eyes fell on the last two people.

These are Zhao Yong’s last two servants, the “delicacies” that Dan Xiu specially reserved for the Saint Aunt.

As soon as the battle started, they hid at the back.

Of course, the Saint Lady and others did not expect them to be able to contribute anything.

The maid suddenly looked over, and scared the two of them, because her eyes were so cold and sinister, like... a pair of ghost eyes!
　Asking for a monthly ticket!
