“Instructor Luo, I did not mean to offend you. Did you say that just to argue with him, or can you actually divine the future?” Xue Hu asked bluntly from the side, with a straightforward manner.
“If I could divine the future, why would I still be standing here?” Luo Chu gave Xue Hu a look.
Asking about the future and foreseeing destiny, not to mention that Luo Chu could not do it, even if he could, he would not touch such things.
Once in the Immortal Realm, Luo Chu had a good friend who could be described as calculating without omission, truly a master of strategy!
Yet in the end, when the heavens passed judgement, even Luo Chu could not save him.
People like that often died faster than anyone else!
Moreover, heavenly tribulation was not like in novels or television dramas, where a single lightning bolt strikes you and that is the end of it.
When the heavens want you dead, they sometimes do not confront you so openly and directly.
Sometimes it is a carefully laid grand scheme, step by step, leading you unwittingly into a dead end.
If a single lightning bolt comes to strike you, it is only because you are a minor character, and the heavenly tribulation cannot be bothered to lay out a plan for you!
Receiving Luo Chu’s answer, Xue Hu nodded awkwardly.
“However, I said he would face a disaster of bloodshed, so he will definitely face a disaster of bloodshed!” Luo Chu suddenly smiled again, a smile that made Xue Hu and the others feel a chill run down their spines.
They were now standing halfway up the mountain, and the village of Tian Family was in the valley below.
Since the State Security Bureau people wanted to take action, then let them take action.
Luo Chu was not worried at all.
Because if the Blood Corpse King had truly grown significantly in power during this period, reaching the realm of Half-step Divine Communication, then that Monk Danba would definitely not be a match.
This did not even need to be considered.
After all, before becoming a corpse, the Blood Corpse King was a Luohua Cave Maiden!
“How many years of history does that Corpse King have?” Luo Chu asked A Pu Zi Kui while leading the Blood Fiend personnel to watch the spectacle.
“The exact number is unknown, but it is definitely no less than a thousand years. If it had not been suppressed by our secret methods all this time, it would probably have become uncontrollable by now,” A Pu Zi Kui said seriously.
Indeed, a thousand-year-old Corpse King was truly somewhat terrifying.
If it had not been suppressed all this time, it would probably have evolved long ago.
At this moment, the red silk formations around Tian Family Village had been mostly set up.
And Monk Danba was also leading people charging in.
It had to be said that Monk Danba indeed had some skill, being a Half-step Divine Communicator after all.
Holding a Vajra pestle in his left hand and a human-skin drum in his right, the ordinary zombies that charged at him were almost knocked down one by one with a single hand!
Meanwhile, Wu Qiming, watching from the side, wore a smug expression on his face.
Then he turned his head towards Luo Chu’s direction, gave a cold smile, and even deliberately made a provocative gesture.
“Boom!” At this moment, there was suddenly a violent rumble from Tian Family Village.
The Blood Corpse King finally emerged. Even standing halfway up the mountain, everyone could feel that murderous aura!
The temperature around them dropped several degrees instantly.
“Aoo~”
A sharp, piercing scream nearly burst people’s eardrums. There, a blood-red creature was crawling on the ground, not walking but crawling on all fours. Wherever it passed, the green grass instantly froze.
“Sinful beast, why do you not submit to the law!” Monk Danba stepped forward at this moment, shouting loudly with an extremely dignified expression. The Vajra pestle in his hand shone with golden light as he struck directly at the Blood Corpse.
“Clang!”
The sound was as deafening as a heavy hydraulic press in a steel mill striking iron, and each impact was louder than the last.
The houses in that area collapsed instantly.
Light erupted there.
Scarlet light and golden light shone brilliantly, like dazzling fireworks.
The mountain shook, making many people break out in a cold sweat and show expressions of shock.
Countless zombies pounced forward. Fortunately, it seemed the State Security Bureau people had prepared in advance, bringing flamethrowers down with them.
Raging flames soared into the sky. Amidst the firelight, Monk Danba charged forward head-on. Buddhist prayer beads flew everywhere, sharper than bullets.
However, by the end of the fight, Monk Danba finally had to strike the human-skin drum in his hand.
The drum sound was extremely unpleasant. Each vibration made people dizzy and even somewhat nauseous.
This was a Vajrayana Buddhist Dharma instrument. Although terrifying, it was extremely effective.
When the drum sounded, it did not affect the zombies much, but it accidentally injured their own people.
Those fighting ordinary zombies in Tian Family Village were instantly disoriented by the drum sound, then pounced upon by zombies.
These zombies were not like in films, merely sucking blood.
They directly tore people into pieces, with colourful intestines being ripped out.
“Damn it, Great Monk, what are you doing?” Wu Qiming stared blankly at this scene.
But the drum sound continued. The sound of the human-skin drum went on.
Meanwhile, Luo Chu turned and looked at Xue Hu.
“Pass the order, prepare to take action. Has everyone taken the pills?”
Xue Hu nodded.
Although he was puzzled in his heart, as Monk Danba seemed to be gaining the upper hand, why was it time to take action now?
But this was an order. Xue Hu could only nod and dared not ask more.
Actually, if it had not been absolutely necessary, Monk Danba would not have used the human-skin drum. After all, he was not a fool. How could he not know it would accidentally injure his own people?
But in reality, he had greatly underestimated the Blood Corpse King.
After clashing, he discovered that although the Blood Corpse King had indeed only just stepped into the Half-step Divine Communication realm, its combat power was strangely terrifying.
There was some mysterious, inexplicable power within the Blood Corpse King, forcing him to unleash his ultimate move. Moreover, his human-skin drum had been struck until cracks appeared.
Finally, with a last dull thud, the human-skin drum shattered.
Monk Danba’s expression changed sharply. Just moments ago, he could still use this Dharma instrument to suppress the opponent.
But now he could not suppress it anymore.
The Blood Corpse King pounced directly at him, slapping with a palm. Monk Danba blocked with the Vajra pestle in his hand, and instantly felt as though he had collided head-on with a high-speed train.
The Vajra pestle was knocked from his hand by that force, and he was sent flying directly.
He had just scrambled up from the ground when the Blood Corpse King arrived before him. The black nails on its claws gleamed with cold light. With claws over ten centimetres long striking at him, Monk Danba could no longer worry about his dignity. He performed a clumsy roll to the side, like a donkey sliding downhill.
A stone nearby was sliced open as if it were tofu.
Seeing this scene, Monk Danba’s scalp tingled. He tore off his kasaya robe and ran, with the Blood Corpse King pursuing closely behind.
He ran from the east side to the west side, because the Vajra pestle had been knocked over there just now.
Yet as soon as he reached the Vajra pestle, a foot appeared on top of it, the foot of the Blood Corpse King.
“Aoo~”
Monk Danba turned and fled.
“Run, run quickly! This beast has become too powerful. Only a true Divine Communicator can oppose it!” Monk Danba ran out frantically.
But it was still too late. He was struck flying directly by the Blood Corpse King.
Then he was pursued again, and struck flying once more.
At this moment, Monk Danba was seen being repeatedly knocked flying to the west, then knocked flying to the east.
If not for the Vajrayana Buddhist Dharma techniques protecting his body, he would probably have been beaten to death long ago.
But with his shout, some people still guarding outside instantly also turned and ran. After all, no one was a fool. If Monk Danba was being pursued so haphazardly, running from east to west, from south to north, even being beaten like a ball flying everywhere, then what chance did they have?
And at this moment, Wu Qiming was also very decisive. He directly ordered his people to prepare to retreat.
Only Luo Chu gave a cold smile and led his people charging down directly.
“Leader, what about them?”
“Their desire to die is their own affair. It just buys us time.” “Hurry and tell them all to withdraw.”
