Director Qi looked at Professor Zhou with resentment.
Although he bore some responsibility for this matter, Professor Zhou had truly played a major part.
Things had been going fine. If they had listened to Luo Chen, everything might still be all right now.
But now it was good. Not only was he about to die, but they had also offended Luo Chen.
The key point was that Luo Chen looked calm and composed. Clearly he had a way to handle it.
But now that they had offended him, he simply did not want to save them.
Luo Chen turned around and looked downstairs. The battle below had already entered a white hot stage.
However Apu Zikui was now gradually gaining the upper hand.
At this moment a bell had appeared in Apu Zikui’s left hand at some point. Every time the bell was shaken, the blood corpse king trembled.
Apu Zikui took the chance to stick a yellow paper talisman onto the blood corpse king’s body.
In the end the bell rang rapidly. Apu Zikui’s hands moved like butterflies among flowers and turned into afterimages.
This was the unique skill of the Xiangxi corpse driving lineage. It was very peculiar and its power was also quite impressive.
The origin of their lineage was mysterious and could be traced back to the ancient times of Yan, Huang and Chiyou.
Legend had it that the first corpse driver was Chiyou’s military advisor, Advisor Apu.
There were also claims that it was related to the Maoshan Zhuyou lineage.
But the most widely known was the Xiangxi corpse driving, together with gu techniques and falling flower cave women, called the three evils of Xiangxi.
Even the programme Into Science had once explained this matter.
However what Luo Chen saw today was very different from the rumours.
Apu Zikui’s secret technique was quite good, but it was only at the half step into the dao realm. She was still far from truly entering the dao.
On the contrary this blood corpse king had already fully entered the dao and was even heading towards awakening.
The battle downstairs was nearing its end. Apu Zikui finally stuck one hundred and eight yellow paper talismans all over the blood corpse king’s body.
When the last talisman fell the blood corpse king stopped moving.
The blood coloured light also dispersed and the blood no longer seeped out from everyone’s bodies.
“Humph. We can survive without you saving us,” Liu Wei said unwillingly from the side.
But as soon as these words landed the one hundred and eight paper talismans caught fire.
Clearly Apu Zikui’s cultivation was not enough to suppress the opponent.
“Roar~” The blood corpse king roared angrily. Apu Zikui was pushed back by the murderous aura.
The blood corpse king flashed forward and grabbed her neck.
It opened its mouth to bite down.
Luo Chen watched for a moment and then took action.
After all Apu Zikui was a decent person. If he could save her naturally he would.
At this moment Apu Zikui was held in the blood corpse king’s grip. She used her last strength to roar at the people upstairs.
“Run. The farther the better.”
She had underestimated the blood corpse king’s strength and could not suppress it. If something happened to her too then none of the people here would survive.
At this moment Luo Chen jumped straight down from upstairs.
“Are you jumping down to die?” Apu Zikui also saw Luo Chen jump down.
But the blood corpse king’s large mouth was already right in front of her.
Apu Zikui sighed. Sorry grandmother, I have not had a child yet and have caused our Apu family line to end.
But just as Apu Zikui fell into despair a hand suddenly blocked the blood corpse king.
The blood corpse king bit down. Its hard fangs bit into Luo Chen’s arm and immediately produced a harsh metallic sound with sparks flying everywhere.
Then Luo Chen lifted his foot and kicked the blood corpse king flying.
Apu Zikui looked at Luo Chen with a face full of astonishment.
“You? You? You?” Three consecutive yous were enough to show the shock in Apu Zikui’s heart.
She had not expected that Luo Chen was not an ordinary person either.
“Is it only allowed for you to hide your ability and not for others? It is not only you who are not ordinary,” Luo Chen said with a slight smile.
Then Luo Chen walked over.
“Be careful. It was a corpse king before and has been refined into a blood corpse. Even a Maoshan celestial master would not be able to subdue it,” Apu Zikui said without thinking too much at this moment.
“I do not need to subdue it. I only need to hit it,” Luo Chen said with a smile.
Hit it?
“That is a corpse king. Its body has long been as hard as steel and iron,” Apu Zikui had barely finished speaking.
She saw Luo Chen suddenly appear in front of the blood corpse king and slap it hard on the head.
“Thud.”
Dust flew everywhere. There was a thick cement foundation under the marble floor but at this moment a large pit had been smashed into it.
“You, you are a grandmaster?” Apu Zikui was stunned by the power of this slap.
This slap must have carried tens of thousands of jin at least.
But before Apu Zikui could say anything more the blood corpse king became completely furious.
“Roar~”
The blood corpse king raised its head. Its eyes were blood red. It opened its mouth and exhaled.
“Quickly dodge. That is innate corpse qi. If even a little touches you not even an immortal descending could save you.”
But as soon as Apu Zikui finished speaking she found that Luo Chen did not dodge at all. He swept his palm across and the corpse king was sent flying straight into a wall.
“Do not give blind commands. Just watch quietly,” Luo Chen said.
Then he walked over again.
But the blood corpse king also rushed out. Clearly Luo Chen had completely angered it.
However Luo Chen went up and slapped it like hitting a grandson. The blood corpse king roared continuously but had no power to fight back.
Apu Zikui watched from the side with her eyes almost popping out.
Was this still a human?
Fighting a blood corpse king head on?
Even a Maoshan celestial master would not dare do that.
After all when dealing with this kind of corpse king one used spells or talismans to suppress it.
Not to mention fighting it head on, she had never even heard of such a thing.
After all even bullets could not harm the blood corpse king earlier.
But now Luo Chen was doing exactly that, slapping it left and right and beating the blood corpse king hard.
“Roar~” The blood corpse king finally erupted after being beaten by Luo Chen.
Blood light surged all over its body and crimson murderous aura exploded.
The building shook. Luo Chen frowned.
He stretched out his hand and grasped at the air. In that instant everyone, including Apu Zikui, felt as if the air had solidified.
They could not move. The pressure was too strong.
Then Luo Chen smashed his fist hard towards the blood corpse king.
“Bang~” The blood corpse king was directly blown apart and blood mist scattered everywhere.
But then it gathered together again, turned into a ball of blood mist and fled directly.
Luo Chen glanced at the escaping blood corpse king and did not chase it.
Instead he walked over, helped the fallen Apu Zikui up, and supported her as they walked upstairs.
“Mister Luo, are you all right?” Director Qi hurriedly stepped forward and asked.
After all they had all seen it earlier. Something that even bullets could not harm had been blown apart by Luo Chen with one punch.
Now Director Qi was truly convinced by Luo Chen and was thinking about how to apologise to him.
“Why did you let it escape?” Liu Wei spoke up at this moment. This sentence made Luo Chen’s face sink immediately.
