Chapter 616: The Ins and Outs
Translator: StackThatCoin Editor: Hitesh_
The eminent monk had an ugly face dotted with pimple scars—he was Madman Xue, Lao Ai's beloved disciple! He wore a golden kasaya over a pale bluish-white robe; around his neck was hung a string of colorful beads, each as large as a fist; and he pretentiously carried a string of pink prayer beads made of some unknown material on his left hand . Stepping atop the lotus flowers, he assumed a solemn appearance of an eminent monk, looking up at the sky .
But, he did not have the temperament, so the attire made him look more like an upstart than an eminent monk . And, the lip print on his cheek had clearly revealed that he was a monk who did not follow the rituals .
However, at the sight of him, Yizhu immediately put on a flattering smile, bowing and hurrying over like a grandson paying his respect to the grandfather . "This little monk is guilty to have troubled Your Venerable . . . " he said in a low voice, "it is just that when this little monk was preaching here with a few Junior Brothers, we bumped into this rude and unreasonable man who demanded us to leave Zhong Province! And, he even ruthlessly killed two of this little monk's Junior Brothers!"
"En!" Madman Xue responded in an ostentatious manner, and only then turned to look at Wu Qi .
His body gave a hard jerk when he saw Wu Qi's face and the faint smile . Shocked and outraged, he glared at Yizhu, and as he was about to scold the fat monk, Wu Qi suddenly stepped out of the flying ship and bellowed, "Is this evil monk here to ask for death? Take this punch!"
As he leaped across the air, Wu Qi winked at Madman Xue . Noticing that, the ugly monk cried out; countless pink lotus petals emerged and swirled around him as he clasped both palms together to unleash a beam of light . Both strikes collided . The punch, although it looked fierce and powerful, did not come with any force, and the beam of light had only produced some ripples in the air .
"Is that all you've got?" Laughing wildly, Madman Xue pointed his fingers out repeatedly, unleashing dozens of thumb-sized thunder flames, each glinting with a pale pinkish gleam as they flew across the air amidst pale golden lights . They exploded upon touching Wu Qi's skin, producing sounds similar to the moans let out by young girls when they reached their climax . The thunder-flame was not strong, but the moans came with a peculiar power that could stir one's soul .
Wu Qi frowned . The moan had no effect on him, but all the monks around them, including Yizhu, were flushed to the ears, with little tents erecting between their legs . Cursing under his breath for Madman Xue's absurd and obscene trick, Wu Qi quickly gave him another wink . Soon after, the two of them flew towards the ruins of Jianfeng City while still fighting each other, which had turned into a lava lake now .
When they were tens of miles away, Wu Qi growled over his shoulder, "Take those bald donkeys down!"
After feeding Huang Liang with uncountable amounts of money and pretty girls, then overwhelming him with his frightening strength, Wu Qi had turned him into the most loyal lapdog . At the command, he immediately waved his hand and shouted, "Attack!"
Several hundred Oracles standing on the decks raised their hands at the same time, unleashing countless bone arrows toward Yizhu and his fellow monks . The arrows gleamed sharply, and shrill ghost howls could be heard coming out of the tailing black smoke . Some Oracles even attacked with the forces of elements, such as earth, fire, wind, and thunder . For a moment, the sky was blotted with strong wind, thunderbolts, and flames, while meteors whistled down towards the monks .
And, the attacks were mixed with the arrows and bolts released by the soldiers . Being fired from specially made bows and crossbows, they were very powerful, and managed to wound seventeen or eighteen monks by surprise . Dark green blood splattered from their wounds—the arrows were poisonous, a queer poison that even the Arhats, who were as strong as Heaven Immortals, could not resist .
Trembling with rage, Yizhu gave Wu Qi and Madman Xue a glance, who were flying further away as they fought . He gritted his teeth and growled, "My fellow Junior Brothers, let's release these vile spawns from the purgatory! Damn it! I thought we were dealing with a lucrative task this time, yet in the end, we still have to risk our lives?" With a shake of his staff, a sheet of golden light sprung out and had him protected within . After that, he began to counterattack with various Buddhist techniques .
The soldiers whom Wu Qi had sent to dig out the people trapped under the collapsed buildings were back . Upon seeing that a group of monks was fighting fiercely with those on the flying ships, they immediately fell into formations and joined the battle . Waving hands and intoning spells, the Oracles on the ships sprinkled sheets of lights onto these soldiers, which instantly improved their combative strength .
While both sides were locked in a fierce battle, Wu Qi had led Madman Xue to the ruins of Jianfeng City, several hundred miles away .
Hiding in a small hollow melted out by the Immortal's True Flame, Wu Qi gave Madman Xue's bald head a smack with his knuckle and said, "So . . . after climbing up the high branch of a Gold Immortal, both of you have forgotten to even send me a message, huh? How did you become the Venerable One of . . . Yab-Yum? What tricks are you playing now?"
