Chapter 124 As long as we get the main course
A thunderous roar erupted in the darkness, unleashing the pent-up thunderbolts.
Under the thunder, the palace shone with golden light, dazzling and magnificent.
Zhang Qingguan was bathed in lightning, with the old turtle hovering behind him, connected to the lightning.
"Truly a magnificent spectacle."
"The immortals of Wudang Mountain truly live up to their name."
Yang Xi and others, along with Zhuge Xingyun, watched this scene from afar.
Gu Bai watched from afar, sensing the changes in the rain and thunder in the sky.
The power of thunder is incredibly strong; using thunder magic here amplifies its power.
However, it also depends on individual ability. If one is not careful, too much repercussions may be incurred, which could harm oneself.
Thunder roared across the sky, shattering the darkness and turning the pitch-black night into daylight in an instant.
"There's someone in those clouds!"
Suddenly, a cry of surprise rang out, and everyone looked up.
Amidst the thunder, a figure appeared and disappeared, with countless threads crisscrossing like a net in the sky.
"Zhang Qingguan, let's settle this today!"
Years of suppressed resentment and hatred arrived with a thunderous roar.
Zhang Qing manipulated the silk threads in his palm, drawing upon the thunder in the sky. A colossal wooden sculpture of a general appeared behind him, using the sky as a bow and the thunder as an arrow!
Zhuge Xingyun's face turned solemn: "He gathers the opportune moment for his own use, but unfortunately, he's not the one who understands thunder and rain, and in the end, he's no match for that old turtle."
With a thunderous roar, three lightning swords descended from the sky, and an aura of destruction spread across the entire summit of Wudang Mountain.
The next moment, a gray light rose from Wudang Mountain, and pieces of Xuanwu wood carvings emitted gray vapor.
Black Tortoise wood carving, gathering the power of the Black Tortoise!
Zhang Qingguan and Lao Wangba have been busy making Xuanwu wood carvings these days.
Zhang Qing was able to orchestrate thunderstorms, so they did too, just waiting for the thunder and fire to refine the golden palace.
"Zhang Qing, I must consider the safety of Wudang Mountain, but this is also my territory!"
Zhang Qingguan leaped up, and a whisk flew out from the palace, gathering the scattered Xuanwu power and the thunderous power that landed on the palace: "Fellow Daoist Zhuge, I entrust Wudang Mountain to you."
"So you're just not going to use a lightning rod anymore?"
Even with his excellent manners, Zhuge Xingyun felt like cursing at this moment.
He had already sensed that the lightning rods on Wudang Mountain could be deployed at any time, but this guy was the one who was entrusted with it.
He trusted me so much just because I said one sentence?
Before he could make a move, he waved his whisk, and rainwater gathered, enveloping each lightning rod, which shot into the sky, one end aimed at the lightning arrows, and the other at Zhuge Xingyun.
"You son of a bitch—"
Zhuge Xingyun cursed loudly, saying that this was not trusting him, but directly transferring the thunder to him and forcing him to take the hit.
"This Qingguan is a bit rude," Tai Sui said disdainfully.
Gu Bai said, "You expect him to have any manners? Zhuge Xingyun has hit Yang Xi before. Nobody knows which side Zhuge Xingyun is on or whether he's really helping. The best option is to dump the trouble on him and force him into the game."
Tai Sui: "How despicable!"
Gu Bai said calmly, "If we are exposed, we will definitely be held responsible for this thunderbolt."
"The painter and the paper figures have also arrived, but they seem to be merely mediums," Tai Sui said.
Gu Bai looked up at the sky: "I'm a little disappointed. It seems that tonight's prey consists only of these people and Zhang Qing."
Gu Xiaojiao, who was standing to the side, looked around warily, and his expression suddenly changed drastically: "Brother Bai, someone is coming for us."
Gu Bai glanced at them and saw three figures leaping over at a fairly good speed.
"The one on the left is yours; you can handle it," Gu Bai said.
"Can you bring yourself to kill him?" Gu Xiaojiao asked.
Gu Bai said irritably, "Given the situation, are you really going to hold back?"
Upon hearing this, Gu Xiaojiao went straight to meet him, and the two exchanged a groin kick the instant they met.
"Holy crap—ah—"
A piercing scream echoed, and in the instant of the scream, a punch was delivered to the opponent's throat.
The newcomer was quite strong. Enduring the pain, he raised his hand to block the fist, but a spray of blood splattered out, and he quickly retreated.
Beneath the cuff, a broken blade gleamed coldly.
Gu Bai glanced at it and then stopped paying attention.
Tai Sui muttered, "This kid is really ruthless. Every move he makes is deadly. He secretly has troops hidden. There's no good among those who hang out with you."
"He has grasped the essence of the village's wisdom," Gu Bai said.
He inherited all the meager skills from Guyue Village.
Two figures arrived, and Gu Bai reached out with both hands, grabbing their throats.
A crisp cracking sound rang out, and the two men's heads lolled to the side, lifeless.
He's now a true martial artist; killing two people of average strength is a piece of cake for him.
In the sky, two figures clashed, and for a time it was difficult to determine who was superior.
Zhuge Xingyun guided the thunder and lightning, which flowed into the earth.
Liu Sheng shielded him from behind, and immediately sensed danger.
A chilling aura swept in, and five black-clad paper figures arrived, wielding sinister, piercing blades.
"Go and arrange for lightning rods," Zhuge Xingyun instructed.
Upon hearing this, Liu Sheng did not try to be brave and quickly retreated.
The black-clad paper figure's blade cleaved through the rain, slashing towards Zhuge Xingyun.
But when it was about three meters away from him, the paper figure suddenly exploded, turning into yin energy and entering Zhuge Xingyun's body.
The distant Tai Sui asked, "Have you figured out what kind of abilities this is?"
Gu Bai said, "That paper figure was directly twisted and destroyed by a powerful force, and we can't see its specific abilities yet. I need to find a way to get out of here."
Tai Sui asked in confusion, "Retreat at this time?"
Gu Bai said, "We have to fight and retreat, waiting for Zhang Qing to be defeated and escape."
Tai Sui asked in surprise, "He was defeated, yet he managed to escape?"
"Fate won't let him fall into the hands of the authorities, and we can only eat after we drop the food down the mountain." Gu Bai glanced at Gu Xiaojiao, who had already dealt with his opponent.
Eating directly on this mountain would be an invitation to expose yourself.
Gu Xiaojiao quickly came to his side, panting, "Brother Bai."
"I'll take you inside to hide, and then we'll go find Gu Qingyi and the others," Gu Bai said.
"it is good."
Gu Xiaojiao knew in his heart that he would be lucky to deal with one opponent; if he really encountered a master, he would be doomed.
Two more figures arrived, their bodies radiating a strong yang energy.
Before they could make a move, Gu Bai delivered a whip kick, sending the two flying and tumbling down the mountain.
Gu Xiaojiao was placed in a guest room at the Taoist temple, and two hand grenades were left for him: "These things are very powerful. I taught you how to use them before. Throw them out if you encounter danger."
"I know, Brother Bai, you don't need to worry about me," Gu Xiaojiao said.
Gu Bai turned and left, disappearing into the rainy night.
Corpses were scattered everywhere on the ground, figures were fighting, there were terrified cries for help, and some people were hiding in the houses, too afraid to come out.
Guo Jin also led his men up the mountain, and gunshots rang out one after another.
Monsters are not afraid of guns, but these martial artists are not.
A chilling, malevolent aura swept in, and the black-clad paper figure arrived.
Without hesitation, Gu Bai turned and ran, leaving some corpses behind as he went.
The paper figure followed closely behind, eventually going down the mountain with him.
Both sides rushed down the mountain, and Gu Bai had already thrown down more than a dozen corpses.
Arriving at a deserted place, he flicked his wrist, unleashing a torrent of lightning, and a grenade exploded with a deafening roar.
A devastating force blasted the paper figure into pieces.
The threads spread, rapidly absorbing the corpse's yang energy. Then, a grenade was thrown to destroy the evidence.
Gu Bai also fell down the mountain along with the shockwave.
"Wait for the food to be delivered," Gu Bai said.
Tai Sui: "It's a pity that the two mediums on the mountain are yin energy, otherwise we could have made some more money."
"Our target is those like Zhang Qing; we just need to get the main course, and leave the side dishes for them."
