Chapter 124: The Battle (3)
The anger of the red-robed ghost was not only expressed in words, but also in actions. It shouted, “How dare you!” Unfortunately, the female warrior Chengzhen didn’t even bother to respond to it. She just glanced at the red-robed ghost with contempt and continued to do her own thing.
Therefore, the red-robed ghost didn’t even bother to fight Tao Bai, and almost without looking back, he rushed towards Cheng Zhen, just like he had done when he first attacked Cheng Qing.
“Your opponent is me.” At the critical moment, Tao Bai still appeared in time. He reached out and grabbed a sleeve of the red-robed ghost, and said in a flat tone, but his hand was not slow. The clenched fist was already swinging towards the red-robed ghost.
“Get out of the way! Do you really think I’m afraid of you?” The red-robed ghost roared, and this time it really didn’t hold back. It faced Tao Bai’s fist and also struck out.
Up until now, the red-robed ghost had only been fighting Tao Bai, and I had never seen it attack head-on. Its purpose had always been to buy time, but this time, in a fit of rage and desperation, the red-robed ghost finally attacked, and it was extraordinary.
At that moment, I heard the sound of roaring waves. I thought it was my illusion, but after the red-robed ghost met Tao Bai’s fist, I saw rolling waves and ripples of water inexplicably appearing around its body.
Is this its true strength? I clasped my hands in front of my chest and frowned, feeling that under the full force of the red-robed ghost’s attack, Tao Bai’s momentum had already been defeated!
“Boom,” was the sound of their fists colliding, followed by a piercing “sizzle” that reverberated throughout the arena. The sound was like a large amount of cold water splashing on a boiling fire, and the fire instantly went out.
A large amount of high-temperature steam rose up, and we all passively took a sauna, but at this time, a figure fell heavily from the thickest part of the steam, lying on the ground and gasping for breath.
That figure was Tao Bai. Seeing this, I knew that Tao Bai had lost in this collision!
In the misty steam, I heard the red-robed ghost snort and then rush in the direction of Chengzhen again. I finally couldn’t hold back and began to summon Shatu.
But Chengqing still held me back. In the rising steam, I couldn’t see Chengqing’s expression clearly, but I could hear his voice clearly: “Bear with it. It’s not your time to act yet. Trust Tao Bai. At least I didn’t calculate that this was a losing game.”
I gritted my teeth and silently retreated to the side. Looking back at Tao Bai, he was no longer lying on the ground. I searched for his figure everywhere, and I saw that Tao Bai’s whole body was lit up with a dull red light, and he rushed straight towards the red-robed ghost.
“It’s not a bad thing to let him take a beating! At least, he won’t be stuck in his simple fairy tale world for the rest of his life.” Lushan’s voice echoed in my ear, a little more calm than Chengqing’s. I was a little surprised. I originally thought that Tao Bai would be the most anxious and impulsive person when he saw Tao Bai suffer. Who knew he would say such a thing.
However, I couldn’t think about the meaning of his words, and I saw Tao Bai pounce on the ghost in red robes and suddenly grab it. At that moment, all the red light on his body gathered on the fist he was about to hit the ghost in red robes with. He shouted, “Again!”
“What a nuisance!” The voice of the red-robed ghost was full of great impatience. It seemed that it was also extremely angry. In the face of Tao Bai’s punch, it did not dodge or avoid, and raised its own fist again!
This time, the red-robed ghost was even more powerful than the last time he swung his fist. The sound that followed his fist was no longer the sound of waves, but the sound of waves roaring. And around his body, what appeared was no longer water ripples, but a picture of waves crashing against the ground and rising up to the sky!
The picture is like a dream, you think it is blurry, but it actually does not exist, but you can see it, but when you want to look closely, you feel that it does not exist!
I frowned, wondering if this guy had been holding back his full strength all along. Was this his best shot?
Over there, Chengzhen had already planted the second flag. Like the first flag, this one also rose in the wind. After it grew to a certain size, the flag fluttered in the wind, its momentum like a rainbow!
If you look closely at the pattern on the second flag, you will see that it is connected to the pattern on the first flag!
The second flag was planted, and the square was still the same square. Nothing worth mentioning had changed, but the red-robed ghost had witnessed it all. I felt its momentum rising, and at this moment, it finally roared and punched with its astonishing momentum!
The sound of Tao Bai’s fist landing on the red robe ghost’s mask was ‘Peng’, and at that moment, a large amount of steam still rose, but at this time, the two flags brought about a change, that is, the square inexplicably blew a strong wind, blowing the clothes of everyone flying, and also blowing away the steam that had been filling the square and the mist that had been there before.
The rising steam was instantly blown away, and we could clearly see that the mask of the red-robed ghost had cracked. Then, with a crackling sound, the first piece of the mask fell to the ground!
Then, more and more mask fragments fell to the ground, revealing the half of the unusually beautiful face underneath the mask. A woman?
This was the thought that ran through all of our minds at the same time. Everyone’s faces showed a little shock, after all, we didn’t recognize the red-robed ghost as a woman from the sound…
Faced with this result, Tao Bai was also a little surprised, but before he could reveal his thoughts, the fist of the red-robed ghost had already hit Tao Bai!
At that moment, there was no sound. I thought to myself that time had stopped. But I saw that as the seemingly light fist landed on Tao Bai, the red light on his body suddenly went out completely. Then there was still a lot of steam, but it was blown away in an instant.
I saw Tao Bai’s feet leave the ground, as if he were flying. The more he flew, the higher he went, and then the whole figure flashed a few times. For a moment, I thought Tao Bai was about to disappear, but in the end, like a candle in the wind, he suddenly flickered a few times, and the figure still stubbornly stood up, without even a serious injury that could not be condensed, or even a soul that had scattered!
This scene was silent and seemingly slow, but in fact it was only a matter of moments. It was only when Tao Bai fell heavily to the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust, that I took my first step!
“No need to go, he can hold on. That red-robed ghost may really be finished.” At this moment, it was Lushan’s voice that rang in everyone’s ears. At this moment, the only people who were still as calm as a mountain were Lushan and Chengqing!
“I hope you don’t regret it!” My tone was already angry. In fact, I was blaming Lushan for his indifference to his companions, and even questioned Chengqing’s decision at this moment.
No matter how Chen Chengyi grows up, the Chen Chengyi in his bones will never disappear. He is impulsive and likes to take all the risks on himself before he can feel at ease.
“I understand him.” Lushan looked at me with a little more warmth in his eyes. He didn’t blame me for my anger, but instead thanked me for my concern for Tao Bai. But I, who was occasionally a one-track mind, couldn’t figure out what kind of situation this was.
“Chengyi, you can’t change your impulsive nature, but can you pretend to be stable like before, even if it’s just pretend?” Chengqing’s fingers tapped his nose lightly, and he spoke to me with a smile and a somewhat playful tone.
I let out a heavy sigh and stepped back. Since they were so confident, I decided to trust them.
But looking back at Tao Bai, the situation was actually extremely bad. He was unable to quickly gather the red light on his body again, stand up, and rush out, as he had done last time. Instead, he lay motionless on the ground.
And all of Chengzhen’s movements failed to attract the attention of the red-robed ghost. It walked towards Tao Bai step by step with the half-broken mask on its face. From its pale face, I could see its tightly pursed lips, which were slightly downturned. It was extremely angry, and this angry aura even caused changes in the surrounding air currents. The wind, which was clearly blowing northward, actually formed a whirlwind that surrounded it, blowing its red robe.
“I’ve angered it. I’ve changed my mind. I’m going to kill you, and then I’m going to kill that woman.” The red-robed ghost said this, and suddenly sped up. In just a moment, I saw it step on Tao Bai’s face!
“Damn it!” I grunted, almost squeezing out these two words from the eye of my throat!
“Kill you!” It lifted its foot and stepped heavily on Tao Bai’s face again.
“Your friends have abandoned you. Look, I’m humiliating you like this, and they’re still watching the show!” In the meantime, another kick followed!
In less than half a minute, the red-robed ghost vented its anger with one kick after another. Because of the anger brought on by the mask, I clenched my teeth and my whole body trembled, enduring it very hard.
“Okay, you’re on your way!” It seemed that the red-robed ghost had vented its anger. This time, it raised its foot, and the water ripples appeared around its body again. The power of the first blow was even more powerful than the second, but it was not as powerful as the second blow. However, I thought that this was the case. After this blow, Tao Bai had no chance of survival.
I couldn’t help but glance at Lushan. His calm expression was really like watching a movie. Chengqing was the same!
I saw Xiao Chengqian, Chengxin, Huigen, Chengyuan, and even Chengxin’s anxiety. They couldn’t help but be impatient like me, but they were forced to endure it because of Lushan and Chengqing.
At that moment, I almost wanted to close my eyes and stop watching, but just then, something unexpected happened…
