Li Xiang the Immortal
68 - Mission Finished

In chapter 67 there is a slight revision of the explanation of evil spirits. But this revision doesn't change the story in chapter 67.

***

Xiao Xing Fu did the same. Although some of the spirits were not wounded by his sword, he ran towards the front where the temple was. Bai Nuan himself followed him and helped slash the spirit spirits around them or block his path.

"Argh," Bai Nuan stopped running when he saw Xiao Xing Fu being thrown backwards and his body falling right in front of him. He was slightly surprised when he saw the slash wound on the young man's chest, "Xing Fu!"

"Ssshhh..," Xiao Xing Fu hissed in pain. But he immediately sat down while holding the wound on his chest. The wound felt like it was burning, making it twice as painful compared to the same wound when it was hit by an attack from a cultivator.

Bai Nuan touched one of the young man's shoulders and crouched down beside him, "Are you okay? What's going on?"

"High spirits suddenly appeared in front of me, sshh, and attacked me."

Bai Nuan looked up as he felt a cold aura ahead. The thing he saw was a corpse-bodied spirit or a high-tier spirit was brandishing a sword at him and Xiao Xing Fu.

All the spirits around him seemed to be motionless. They seemed to provide a way for those high-level spirits to be in front of the two humans who entered their territory.

"What are you guys doing here?!" Said a high-level spirit with a heavy voice. There were a lot of blood on his body. There was a red line around his neck. Many wounds and stench poured out from his body.

"He spoke?!" Inner Bai Nuan was slightly surprised. For the first time, he learned that evil spirits could speak. Because all this time, he had never met an evil spirit that could speak.

Xiao Xing Fu himself only knew of it from Li Xiang. Then this was the first time for him to encounter such an evil spirit. "Sshh. This is none of your business!"

"It turns out you're arrogant, too, boy." Said the high-level spirit in an angry tone. "This is our territory, no human being can enter it!"

After saying that, the evil spirit in front of the two of them instantly swung his sword towards them.

Ssreetts

But immediately, Bai Nuan curled up on the ground as he slammed the head of Xiao Xing Fu who was beside him onto the ground. "Ouch. sshh.."

Boomm Boom Boom Bomm

The direction of the attack path that the evil spirit carried out instantly made some other middle-tier evil spirits instantly vanish instantly. Even his attack made some of the trees around fall to the ground.

Bai Nuan who was staring at a glance shuddered in horror. "Luckily I got down. If not, then I'm done."

Xiao Xing Fu raised his head back while stroking his forehead, "Sshh.... ailing.., why are you slamming me? You have a grudge against me, right?!"

Bai Nuan who heard Xiao Xing Fu's words became a little annoyed, "Damn, I saved you! You should be thanking me. If I hadn't slammed your head earlier, then you'd be gone from this world by now. You just saw the attack made by him!"

Xiao Xing Fu glanced in the direction he pointed to and immediately gulped. There is a deep soil basin near some fallen trees. Though as he remembered, there was no such large land basin there earlier. "Is it because of the attack?"

"Do you know your position now, boy?!" Said a high-level evil spirit. He pointed his sword at Bai Nuan and Xiao Xing Fu again.

The two humans stared at the evil spirit in front of them, "S-actually who are you?" Xiao Xing Fu.

The evil spirit seemed to growl furiously as if it wanted to vent all the anger that it had been harboring all this time, "The white man is very brengs*k, you killed us just because we are superior to you! You're afraid of all of us and killing us!"

Xiao Xing Fu and Bai Nuan were a little surprised when they heard what the evil spirit said. What does he mean?

"I won't forgive that man!! And he's also responsible for all this! Because of him, we're all dead!" The cry of the evil spirit was so loud that it made an echo within this quiet forest.

Gyaahhh

The evil spirit spirits around them cheered as if understanding what those high-level evil spirits were saying. The peaceful and quiet forest was now again noisy by the sound of the sword clashing.

"Whatever the reason, we have nothing to do with what happened to you!" Xiao Xing Fu who had already pulled out his sword directly fought the evil spirit in front. He was not afraid when he fought. Even though he himself already knew if the level of their strength was far different.

The evil spirit that Xiao Xing Fu was fighting himself resisted the attack that the young man had made using the sword. "You will not understand and you will not understand! Better get out of front of us!" Speak of evil spirits. He swung the sword vertically to avenge the attack of the young man in front of him.

Xiao Xing Fu with all his energy held him back, despite the slight difficulty. "Master, hurry up and get the flowers." His words are on the sidelines of the fight.

"But what about you?"

"Don't distract you from me!" The angry looking evil spirit instantly kicked Xiao Xing Fu's body and made the young man slightly pushed back.

"Be careful and quickly follow me," Bai Nuan dashed swiftly forward. But the evil spirit that Xiao Xing Fu was fighting seemed to be glancing at him as it was aware of his movements. "I won't let you take anything in this place!" The evil spirit swung its sword strongly towards Bai Nuan.

"I am your opponent!" Xiao Xing Fu directly came before the evil spirit and restrained his attack with a sword. His feet resting on the ground were slightly pushed back while resisting his attack.

"Ggrrrhh, you think I'll let it go?! All of you, block that girl!"

Ggggrrr

All of the middle-tier evil spirits instantly flew closer to Bai Nuan who was running towards the temple.

"Currently," Bai Nuan looked annoyed when he saw some spirits in front of him blocking the way. He held his sword firmly and slashed some of them with a sword that was covered with a lot of Qi.

Slaashh

Some spirits instantly disappeared into black smoke after being hit by the girl's attack. But some of them were not injured, because the girl's sword only penetrated their bodies.

Sreet Sreett Sreett

The claw of the evil spirit's nail hit Bai Nuan's body and injured him. "Sshh..," Bai Nuan grimaced softly. "There's no point fighting them. Because some of them cannot be attacked. They weren't even hurt."

Bai Nuan decided to run without caring about the evil spirit spirits that were nearby. He just swung the sword forward and ran as fast as he could. Although he felt tired, his Qi was drained a lot just to dispel the evil spirit's attack, he still ran. Even many evil spirits hurt him on the way, but he still moves.

Xiao Xing Fu himself was powerful enough to withstand a high-level evil spirit to remain focused on him. "I can't keep going like this. Just fighting with him for a while was already exhausting. My strength is drained a lot." He poured fire power on the sword and made his sword covered with fire.

Afterwards, Xiao Xing Fu swung the sword at the evil spirit forcefully. It appears when the evil spirit jumps back, evading its attack. Even so, Xiao Xing Fu continued to approach him and launched an attack. Meanwhile, the evil spirit itself kept moving away from him, "Are you afraid of fire?" He smiled slanted.

"Don't be arrogant you brat," the evil spirit instantly moved swiftly to attack Xiao Xing Fu, even without the young man realizing it.

Sreet

The sword incision was again imprinted on Xiao Xing Fu's body. This time his attack slashed the young man's stomach quite deeply. "Akh, shhh.." Xiao Xing Fu jumped back while holding his stomach. He gritted his teeth to endure the pain. "I'd guess. I won't be able to fight it for much longer."

Other high-level evil spirit spirits did not come to attack because they were not given any attacking orders by the evil spirit that was fighting Xiao Xing Fu. This made Xiao Xing Fu and Bai Nuan have to be vigilant because their enemies could suddenly attack.

"Xing Fu, let's hurry!!"

Xiao Xing Fu looked at the origin of the voice when he heard the screams. He saw Bai Nuan almost at the temple. Seeing that, he felt a little calm.

"You think you can get away from me?!" Said the evil spirit in front of Xiao Xing Fu. He attacked the young man with a sword.

Xiao Xing Fu held him back until his right leg slightly shifted from its place. He immediately kicked the spirit body and ran away towards Bai Nuan.

Slasshh Slash Slash

Xiao Xing Fu slashed down all the spirits that were blocking his path without caring about all the wounds on his body.

The evil spirit that had been fighting Xiao Xing Fu seemed annoyed when he saw what Xiao Xing Fu was doing, "I won't let go??ask you!"

Along with Xiao Xing Fu arriving at the temple, Bai Nuan had just plucked 3 stalks of hope flowers. No evil spirits entered the temple grounds as far as a few centi from the temple building that almost collapsed. Since the wish flower was in the courtyard of the temple surrounded by evil spirits, Bai Nuan had enough trouble picking it up. Therefore, he arrived at the temple terrace along with Xiao Xing Fu.

The young man directly holding one of Bai Nuan's hands suddenly arrived while picking up a teleportation paper from behind the clothes. He ripped it off with one hand helped by using his mouth, "Return."

The bodies of the two slowly turned into slightly luminous and transparent. Their bodies slowly disappeared. Simultaneously, all the evil spirits without exception who were there moved closer to the temple even without the orders of the evil spirits who were fighting Xiao Xing Fu earlier.

"Huh?" Bai Nuan was too late to realize what Xiao Xung Fu was doing. But when he realized it, he seemed to lose consciousness.

Gyaahhhh

The evil spirits cried out as if angry because the humans who entered their territory detached and fled.
