Chapter 61: Thunder, Flame, and Thorns

"Got it, come on. Xia Fan nodded.

"......," the fox demon froze, "I said you don't think about it anymore, if I make a mistake, or deliberately slow down—"

"But you're going to give it your all, and I know that. After Xia Fan finished speaking, he sighed, "It's not the first day we've met, why do you still doubt yourself? Isn't mutual trust something partners should do?"

Li felt something suddenly entangled in his chest, a little stuffy, and a little tingling.

yes, why would you say such a thing?

Because I never believed it, can I really gain the trust of humans?

But now the high-ranking Fang Shi is willing to be controlled by a fox demon who can't see the light, and go to danger when he can't act autonomously, if this can't be said to be trust, then what else can it be?

Li bit his lip, "In that case, I hope you're ready—"

After speaking, she grabbed Xia Fan's cheek and pulled it towards herself.

The two immediately faced each other.

It's so close!

Xia Fan even felt that he had touched the tip of the other party's nose.

But the next moment, his attention was all drawn to the other party's eyes.

"Kanshu is a trick, attracting the soul!"

In an instant, Xia Fan felt that he had fallen into her eyes—it was a bottomless vast sea, with countless colors rushing to his face, as if he had seen a topological network composed of nerves and myelin sheaths, and as if he had seen a sky full of stars composed of qi. When all the visions reunited into golden pupils, he realized that he was still in place.

Xia Fan hesitated to move his five fingers, and his body quickly carried out the instructions of his brain.

"Failed?"

"No, it was a success. I've planted a wedge in your consciousness that can be activated with a single thought. ”

"Haven't I become your marionette, then?" he said, pretending to be light-hearted.

"You brought it on yourself. Li glared at him, "Don't worry, the effect of the technique is only once, no matter whether it succeeds or fails, there will be no chance to do it again." I guess you should know what the first element of magic is, right?"

"Thoughts, thoughts. ”

"That's right, any control over your body won't stop you from conceiving spells, prepare your strongest spells and introductions, and I'll hand them where they right. Go for it!"

Xia Fan didn't say anything more, turned around and rushed in the direction of Shangguan Cai.

At this moment, she had blocked the second round of the Blood Raven's attack, and her breathing rate was significantly faster than before. Although Wang Renzhi and Wei Wushuang also participated in the battle, their role was better than nothing, if it weren't for Shangguan Cai's amazing strength, the two would not have been able to hold out now.

Therefore, when Xia Fan reappeared, everyone couldn't help but be happy - although he couldn't immediately reverse the unfavorable situation, one more person always had more strength.

However, what stunned the three of them was that Xia Fan did not stop after passing through the firelight area, and rushed directly towards the female ghost hiding in the shadows.

"Brother Xia, stop, it's dangerous there!"

"Hey, are you looking for death!"

Shangguan Cai tried to stop him, but the distance of the gun was a few inches shorter.

In the blink of an eye, Xia Fan had stepped into the darkness.

Then he shuddered and stopped in front of the evil spirit.

"It's really over now......" Wei Wushuang couldn't help but close his eyes, not wanting to witness the tragic death of his fellow villager.

And Xia Fan, who is in the center of everyone's attention, has another feeling.

When he already knew that his next move had nothing to do with his own thoughts, those unnecessary fears and panics disappeared, and what occupied his mind was the repeated spell casting steps. His intense concentration allowed him to clearly capture the demon's every movement, including its hideous face under its cloak and its slowly raising its shriveled and slender forearms......

There is no doubt that as long as the bone sickle falls on him, it is the best ending to split in two.

He felt that time had slowed down.

But...... Is Li really in control of his body?

What if she doesn't activate the spell, or if she's disturbed by the tainted blood?

Is she desperately reminding herself behind her back to cancel this plan?

Fear was gone, but distractions were pouring in—it seemed to split the brain into two halves, half for preparing spells and keeping an eye on the enemy, and half for cranky thoughts.

But no matter how slow time becomes, it's just a blink of an eye.

"Shhhh

With a hoarse scream, the blood crow swung down its scythe-like arms!

Xia Fan felt his breathing stagnate.

Move on!

Hey, there's no real problem, right?

It wasn't until the bone sickle was less than an inch away from his head that he could faintly smell the smell of blood on it, and his perspective suddenly changed!

Without realizing it, he stepped forward, clinging to the pocket of his opponent's abdomen. The scythe almost grazed the back of his head, shredding the girdle above his head.

The long hair that was tied up suddenly spread out.

Probably didn't expect this supposed fatal attack to be ineffective, and even the female ghost was stunned for a moment. However, the Yuan Ghost had already reacted first—probably smelling the scent of flesh and blood, and its ugly head poked out of the bag and cracked its bloody mouth towards Xia Fan.

And Xia Fan, or Lai, responded more directly.

She directly "reached out" and pressed the head of the abyss ghost back into the bag, and at the same time, there was a small copper wire pendant.

At the same time, Xia Fan saw that his other hand had already clamped the talisman to his fingertips.

There won't be a better opportunity than now—

He shouted in his heart!

Earthquake returns, thunder!

A massive amount of qi erupted thinly, and together with the introduction and rune paper, it turned into a force that attracted heaven and earth.

The thick electric light traveled back and forth in the night sky, and finally smashed into the surface in an unstoppable manner, engulfing the blood raven in an instant!

......

Is that what he calls "Modified Magic?"

It seems that the story of his repeated nagging in the taxi examination before was not all big talk......

Li looked at the blurred back shrouded by the wild dance of the silver snake, and his chest throbbed again.

She probably knew what was pestering her.

It was a thorn that had been formed over time, called distrust.

It's just that because it's entangled with the heart for too long, I've gradually become accustomed to its existence and take it for granted.

Now, it's starting to peel off.

It is because of the peeling away from the solidified flesh that new pain is created.

Li closed his eyes and let the pain flow through his chest.

She didn't know what would eventually become of her heart if she continued like this, but she decided to accept it.

......

Everyone in Gaoshan County heard this thunderstorm on the dry land.

In front of it, even the night has to retreat for three points.

When the dazzling white light faded, locals rushed to the streets, looking in the direction of the lightning.

"Is this the Immortal Master trying to get rid of it? It's amazing!" it was the child's voice.

"What kind of immortal master, you want to collect money. ”

"Shh......h Be cautious. Someone covered his mouth.

"But this thunder is also loud, we have never seen such a terrifying dry thunder!"

"Me too, I feel like the house is shaking a few times. ”

"Hey, it seems that the evil is not easy to deal with. ”

"I hope that after this eradication, Gaoshan County can hold on for a while longer......"

This was echoed by the majority.

Although they don't want to see the Privy Councillor, since it has happened, they can only let it pass as soon as possible, so that their lives can get back on track as soon as possible.

......

At this time, the high temperature caused by the lightning strike had ignited the entire roof of the room.

As on the night in Castle Hills, the fire would soon spread along the roof and walls until it turned the entire house into a giant furnace.

The power of the Triple Technique was a little greater than Xia Fan had expected, so much so that his ears were now buzzing, and the masonry ground in front of him had even been split into a shallow pit.

As for the two ghosts, only a charred remains remained.

"It turns out that Luo Qing was not wrong that day, you did the blow that completely knocked out the demon......" Wei Wushuang looked at him with a shocked expression, "Brother Xia, when have you mastered the shock technique to this extent?"

"Well, when Master and I were wandering, we happened to encounter a lightning strike......"

"Even if you can pick up the lightning strike wood, you can't release it in front of that ghost, right?" Wang Renzhi's expression was also extremely shocked, "I want to ask, how did you manage to cast a spell in the shadows? shouldn't you be unable to move, right?"

It was Shangguan Cai who relieved him - she held Luo You'er in both hands and scolded the two, "If you have anything to say, don't you see that there is a fire here?"

Only then did the two react and walked towards the door with each other's arms.

Xia Fan and Shangguan Cai followed closely behind and left the fire together.
