Chapter 48 Sudden change

What kind of person is Wu Liyu? He is no match for my master in terms of the subtlety of his magic, but he knows that no matter how subtle the magic is, it must be supported by one’s own power. He chose to use the evil spirit summoning technique, which seems vicious but actually does not do much harm to those who practice Taoism. This is the purpose, to drain my power.

Just as a lion can ignore a hyena, what about a hundred hyenas? So, he used the little ghosts summoned by the yin-inviting technique. I wouldn’t care about one, but more would make me surrounded by a hundred ghosts. I had to eliminate them one by one, which was a matter of consuming my power.

The me on this side seems to be making light of it, but between the waving of the whisk, there must be a gust of evil wind that is extinguished. On the other side, Wu Liyu is summoning one after another, and in the process, my power is getting weaker and weaker, but he doesn’t seem to be under much pressure.

In terms of power, only my master can compare with him.

Unfortunately, I am not in control of this body. At this time, I might choose an aggressive technique and simply fight Wu Liyu to the death, rather than letting him drain my power. But that me is not in a hurry, and I am breaking Wu Liyu’s Yin-inviting technique in a very proper manner, which is quite a bit of give and take.

My master was clearly a wild and unruly person who did things his own way, so how could he fight so methodically?

I felt like I couldn’t hold on any longer because my power was about to be completely drained. But at that moment, the other me once again swung the whisk, and I thought the target was the next gust of wind, but I didn’t expect the whisk to hit Wu Liyu’s body so hard.

Wu Liyu, who was concentrating on casting the spell, was so startled by this blow that he immediately roared angrily, “What are you doing?” In any case, Wu Liyu’s spell was interrupted at this moment.

At this moment, I was pleasantly surprised to discover that the seemingly normal act of extinguishing the evil wind actually contained a hidden meaning. I used this as an excuse to get closer and closer to Wu Liyu!

Originally, the two were fighting magic, and the chances of getting close were rare. After all, Taoist priests fight magic, not mortal fights. They fight various magical techniques, and the depth of their power is something Wu Liyu would never have thought of. I would use this to get close, and after getting close, I would unceremoniously slap him.

Facing Wu Liyu’s questioning, the me was very straightforward and simply replied, “Since we are fighting, why should we be bound by form? My whisk broom has 36 moves, and besides fighting ghosts…”

I didn’t finish the sentence, because the next moment, I had already answered him with action, and I hit Wu Liyu again.

The whisk contained some special metal chains that could even injure a zombie of the old village chief’s level, let alone Wu Liyu. I felt a bit amused. My master was really a wonderful person. He didn’t care about rules and things like that, and his fighting skills were even more “sly.” If you bully me for not having enough power, then I won’t use my power to suppress you!

Of course, the seemingly simple close combat was supported by the master’s exquisite magic. If it wasn’t for the ability to quickly eliminate the evil wind, how could he get so close to Wu Liyu so “easily”?

Just dealing with ghosts full of negative energy should be a flurry of activity, and it would be hard to keep up.

Wu Liyu was shocked and angry at the ghost I summoned, and the pain in his flesh was indescribable. I could tell that I had been lenient. Although Taoist practitioners do not cultivate the internal strength of martial artists, they have practiced martial arts for many years and always have internal strength. If the whisk I summoned contained internal strength, Wu Liyu would have been injured.

But the ‘enemy’ had already come up to him and started to hit him. Wu Liyu was not a person who would sit back and wait to die. Which Taoist would not know a few kung fu moves? Of course he chose to fight back!

At this moment, I saw the helplessness and anger on Wu Liyu’s face. Yes, it was obvious that they were fighting with magic, but why did they start a fight? How could two Taoist priests do something that a martial artist would do?

But things are not determined by his will. His kung fu is no match for the 36 styles of my master’s whisk. He was quickly beaten into a temperless state. I don’t have deep kung fu, but I have great physical strength!

Seeing Wu Liyu being beaten like a “lame duck” by my whisk, I felt so good that I couldn’t wait to sing a song, “The sky in the liberated area is a clear sky.” Just as I thought, my master and Master Hui had already started singing together.

First, my master started to sing in a loud voice in the cave, singing a Shaanbei folk song called “Xintianyou”: “A handkerchief with a sheep’s stomach on the head, I carry a bamboo basket to dig bitter vegetables.”

As soon as my master finished singing, Master Hui quickly added, “Singing a song while digging for bitter vegetables, there is no one in the world as miserable as me…” After singing, Master Hui sighed, “Oh, what a miserable life!”

My master immediately followed with a sentence: “Yes, a hard-luck person. Those who have been beaten are the most hard-luck people.”

I was so impressed by these two uncles. They were singing to anger Wu Liyu, who was already angry from being beaten by the 36 styles of the whisk. Master and Uncle Hui sang together, and Wu Liyu’s anger exploded. He spat out a mouthful of blood, which even sprayed directly onto my clothes.

He spat blood? I sighed to myself, “You’re spoiled, but my master and Uncle Hui are so brazen that this level of sarcasm is a drop in the bucket!

The two Wei figures next to him could no longer hold back, and Wei Yige even walked over and shouted, “You said you were going to fight, but now you’re beating people?”

As he spoke, he already started to move his hands, and it looked like he was about to intervene. Wu Liyu cast a “melancholy” and grateful look at Wei Shuzi. He was grateful that the wooden Wei Shuzi finally intervened, but he was also resentful that it took so long for him to intervene. I was almost beaten into a pig’s head.

I was laughing with a cramp in my brain, trying to imagine Wu Liyu’s emotions. Unfortunately, my body did not belong to me, and I could not express this emotion through my body.

On the other hand, I was a little worried. The art of the middle-level magi has a time limit and cannot be maintained indefinitely. If my master cannot maintain his dignity and not be ruthless to the younger generation, then I will be in trouble.

As for Wei Shuzi, I don’t worry at all. Do my masters eat dry food?

Sure enough, as soon as Wei Shuzi appeared, my master jumped out, pointing at Wei Shuzi and saying, “At first, we agreed not to interfere with each other. My apprentice was thrown up by Wu Liyu, and I didn’t even say a word. Are you going to interfere? Who says this isn’t a battle? My apprentice’s moves, which move doesn’t imply power? This is really shallow! I can’t help it if you do this. I’m okay, but if everyone can’t help it, I can’t stop it either.

When did my master become a loser? He has now injured his source, and there will be a big battle to deal with next. Dealing with the two Wei numbers is a loss that outweighs the gain. He is hinting that everyone should not “bear with it,” and if the two Wei numbers dare to act, they will attack them en masse.

Even a fool can understand what the master is saying. After he said that, everyone gathered around, staring at the two Wei figures with hungry eyes, making the two Wei figures who wanted to occupy the moral high ground and then take action not know what to do.

Because the words had already been blocked by the master, and the action could not solve Wu Liyu’s siege, but instead, he would be caught in a bitter struggle, making things more troublesome. For a time, it was a stalemate.

As for me, it was as if I had also realized the problem of time, and suddenly said, “It’s about time I teach you a lesson. I’ll give you three more hits to remind you of what it means to be righteous, open-minded, and moral!”

Then my master was finally going to take serious action to save me from my crisis. I was screaming in my heart, “Master, don’t be merciful. Knock him out! I know my master won’t kill him. It’s a feeling. I feel that although my master despises their school, he has some affection for them and can’t bear to kill them.

My old master Li is also a sentimental person, isn’t he? The descendants of our school all have this kind of personality, cold on the outside but warm on the inside.

“Respect the Dao, respect the heart of the Dao, but not the skin!” After saying this, I fell on him the first time. This blow contained internal strength and struck Wu Liyu’s arm, which immediately became unable to lift.

“Open-mindedness refers to attitude. A cultivator who is too preoccupied with his thoughts will lose his innocence and will not be able to achieve the Dao!” As he spoke, the second strike, which contained internal strength, landed under Wu Liyu’s left knee. Immediately, Wu Liyu’s left leg could no longer support his body and he fell to the ground.

“Morality, morality, it means that the way and righteousness coexist. If you take the way, you cannot give up righteousness. A way without righteousness can only be called a narrow path, and it will never achieve the great way!” As he spoke, the third blow of the master was about to fall. This blow was aimed at Wu Liyu’s forehead. The forehead is a place that cannot kill a person. If the strength is well controlled, it can make a person dizzy. This is the reason why so many people love to clap bricks.

I was so happy. The master was really cute. Even if it was just a hint of his will, it really followed my wishes and made Wu Liyu dizzy.

But just then, the entire cave shook, and something unexpected happened. What was going on?
