stand back, let me come

Chapter 1277: One Battle to Decide the Southwest (XIV) [Seeking a Monthly Ticket]

Whether it is a scholar or a warrior, once they have achieved some success in their cultivation, they will remain young forever, and their appearance will remain stable between 20 and 30 years old. Depending on their temperament, their age will fluctuate by a few years. Therefore, it is impossible to judge the true age of a warrior or scholar based on their appearance alone.

In Shen Tang's words, Luo Sha's face was so tender that you could pinch water out of it. When Luo Yuan saw him for the first time, he thought he was some ignorant youngster, but his first guess was overturned at the second glance.

His eyelids twitched uncontrollably: "Where did this old thing come from?"

Luo Sha responded by throwing a trident in his direction. When he saw his subordinates lying in a pool of blood, his pretty face was filled with murderous intent: "Father Robben, what a despicable thing you are!"

With a sharp metal collision sound, the fork got stuck in Luo Yuan's sword guard, and then a huge force like a mountain hit Luo Yuan. The sudden loss of balance made Luo Yuan's body almost fall into the water, and waves of fine pain came from his knuckles. The fork took advantage of the situation to approach his face.

Luo Yuan sneered: "What's your relationship with that old guy?"

The "old thing" he was talking about was naturally the "mentor who taught me". Luo Sha had never thought that he would have the nerve to mention his grandfather. His rising anger further aroused the riot of his martial spirit. The already terrifying force was tripled, and an illusory fish tail was thrown out from the void, with a bit of the smell of the sea, and it hit Luo Yuan head-on.

Compared with this fish tail, Luo Yuan is really small.

But it's not just the fish tail that's terrifying.

Luo Yuan wanted to avoid the impact of the fish's tail, but when he thought about it, he was shocked to find that his body was attracted by some irresistible force and he could not break free. It was as if he was trapped in an endless deep sea. When he looked up, he could only see a faint light penetrating the water and causing some ripples.

The water waves wrapped around his limbs and head like a giant cocoon.

The opportunity was fleeting and he missed the chance to escape in the blink of an eye.

boom--

There was a loud bang.

Luo Yuan was knocked into the mud at the bottom of the river by the whale's huge tail.

A thick column of water rose up into the sky along with the appearance of a puddle. The calm river surface suddenly boiled, ripples spread in circles, and the thick silt made everything under the water muddy and obscured Luo Yuan's figure. Luo Sha's eyes flashed fiercely, and he raised his hand and sucked the trident into his palm. The invisible air blade slashed down, and the curtain of river water slowly opened from both sides: "Be buried here!"

The fight between the two made quite a noise.

At first Shen Tang thought it was a warrior who ran to the battlefield to fight. Jimo Qiu was extremely sensitive to auras and instantly recognized that one of them was Luo Sha's. The other aura was similar to Luo Sha's. The two probably had the same master. Needless to say, it was Luo Yuan!

She gave the order without delay.

"Order everyone to be on guard to meet the enemy!"

Shen Tang went to see what was going on with Luo Sha first.

Even if Luo Sha is anxious to take revenge, he doesn't have to be so hasty, right?

Out of caution, Shen Tang did not go directly to the center of the battlefield, but looked at the situation from a far away hilltop. She was lucky, and saw Luo Yuan being thrown into the mud by a tail as soon as she arrived. Luo Sha was indeed capable of fighting a few moves with the 19th-level Guannei Hou, no wonder he dared to run ashore with his subordinates to seek revenge on Luo Yuan.

but--

Shen Tang stared and said, "High Priest, I have a question."

Jimo Qiu held a wooden stick in his hand and stood guard: "Your Highness, please ask."

Shen Tang pointed at the river surface with water columns blasting and waves surging, and asked a question that confused her: "You mean mermaid?"

Jimo Qiu said in person that Luosha Wudan's totem is a mermaid!

"Yes."

The high priest didn't understand what was wrong with this statement.

But, Your Highness's expression seems to indicate that you don't agree?

Shen Tang's expression was about to crack.

How could she agree?

"Whose mermaid is a humpback whale?"

Although the shadow of the fish tail only appeared for a brief moment and the body and head were almost transparent, the short and small dorsal fin, short and wide baleen, four-toed flippers, serrations on the leading edge, wavy notches on the trailing edge, and upwardly arched back... at first glance it was a humpback whale.

Oh, the common name is humpback whale.

  How could Jimo Qiu say with a clear conscience that this was a mermaid?

"So what does your highness think a mermaid should be like?"

"At the very least, it has to be a human body and a fish tail? In short, it can't be a whole fish. No matter how beautiful the whole fish is, it's still a 'beautiful fish', not a 'mermaid'! The key is the 'human' in the middle! Both the human body and the human face meet the general public's definition of 'beauty'!"

This is what mermaids look like in the eyes of humans.

Shen Tang didn't expect that he would be defrauded by Jimo Qiu!

Jimo Qiu heaved a sigh of relief after hearing the explanation.

"It is indeed 'a human body with a fish tail'."

The cooperation between the Wudan Totem and the warrior is not limited to one person and one beast.

Jimo Qiu explained that there are roughly three forms.

Shen Tang suddenly turned his head: "What?"

Jimo Qiu said: "Let's take A Nian as an example."

When Gongxichou was fighting with others, sometimes he would ask the Wudan Totem to help him fight, and sometimes he would transform into the Wudan Totem and sit in the sun. In fact, there was a third form, which was half human and half snake. The upper body was human, and the lower body was a snake tail.

The upper body can also be a snake head and the lower body can be human legs.

The two are classified as a fusion form.

Shen Tang: "???"

Her mind was stuck for a moment, as if she couldn't process it: "Shao Xuan has never shown his fish tail..."

Gong Xichou: "Because there is no need to go into the water often."

  Maintaining a fish tail does not mean that humans have become another species, but they still maintain human standards in terms of physiology and psychology. The coexistence of the two is prone to cognitive emotional disorders. It does not improve cultivation, and it is not convenient for fighting. Why do it for no reason?

Shen Tang added: "But Gongxi Chou has never..."

"Because it's useless." Although the snake's tail would fit the torso and be the right size, it was still too bulky compared to the legs. Why did Gong Xichou maintain his half-human, half-snake form? Wouldn't it be more convenient to walk on two legs than to crawl with a tail?

Shen Tang: "..."

She couldn't help but think of her own Wudan Totem, and with a mouthful of blood stuck in her chest, she asked - whose Wudan Totem would be a person? This made it impossible for her to even disguise herself as an orc.

As night fell, the dark river surface turned choppy.

And something even bigger was brewing underwater.

Shen Tang looked into the distance, her eyes fell on the direction of the southwest allied camp. If she had a choice, she didn't want to fight today. The weather, the location, and the people were all right. The weather and the wind were not right, and not all of her personnel were present. The remaining location was also slightly passive because it was downstream. However, Luo Sha's appearance helped her to recover a lot of disadvantages. She weighed the harpoon in her hand.

“Luo Yuan is a 19th-rank Guannei Hou. I am here to help Luo Sha beat him up. This shouldn’t be considered as bullying the weak with the many.” Experts are allowed to be beaten up. The purpose of a fight is to win. Face is nothing. “Luo Sha’s strength is beyond my expectations. I previously…”

Having said that, she paused.

Shen Tang was not very sure about Luo Sha's true strength.

It is not easy to see through the strength of people who are good at hiding their aura. Unless the strength of both parties is too far apart, at this time, no matter how good the aura hiding skills are, they will be flawed in the eyes of masters.

  What does it mean that she can’t see through Luo Sha?

This means that Luo Sha is not only very good at hiding his aura, but his realm is not much stronger or weaker than Shen Tang. Firstly, Shen Tang herself is also an eighteenth-level Great Shuzhang - even if she has not been through for a long time and her foundation is not solid, there are nineteenth-level Guannei Hou and twentieth-level Che Hou above her. Secondly, she is much weaker than Shen Tang and it is impossible for her to withstand Luo Yuan's attack.

In other words, Luo Sha's strength is between these two.

Having him join at this critical moment does help relieve a lot of pressure. The premise is that Luo Sha is really going to deal with Luo Yuan, and is not pretending to surrender to Shen Tang: "... Before, I was worried that Luo Sha's motives were not pure, but now it seems that he really wants Luo Yuan's life."

As soon as the words fell, the trident broke through the water.

The water column was a hundred feet high. If you looked carefully, you could see a light pink color on the edge. I don't know whose blood it was.

Luo Yuan covered his arm, his eyes bloodshot.

There was a cut on Luo Sha's chest, with the skin and flesh turned inside out.

The cut continued to ooze out bright red blood as his chest rose and fell, and at the same time, it healed inwards at a speed visible to the naked eye under the nourishment of martial energy. At this rate, it would take less than half an incense stick to heal as before, and I'm afraid there wouldn't even be a scar left.

  The healing ability of a Wudan warrior is so terrifying!

"Who are you to the old guy? Which of his sons? Or one of his adopted sons?" The two sides fought each other without mercy, and Luo Yuan found that this person's aura was a little weird. At first he couldn't tell what was weird, until a light bulb went off in his mind, and he suddenly realized something was wrong - even if it was the old guy who handed it to him personally, Luo Sha's aura was too similar to the old guy's!

Similar, but not exactly the same.

Luo Yuan naturally thought of the old man's son and apprentice, and every word he said pierced Luo Sha's nerves: "How could you get his true teachings? I wonder what price you paid? Did you give away your wife and daughter, or yourself?"

  Luo Yuan's mouth was full of shit, and the strong sense of humiliation made Luo Sha not only want to kill him, but also want to slice Luo Yuan into pieces and make a plate of raw pickled fish sashimi!

His anger played exactly what Luo Yuan wanted.

The things that old people practice have certain requirements on the state of mind. Emotions must be stable, and one cannot be extremely happy, extremely sad, extremely shocked, or extremely angry. The greater the fluctuations in emotions, the more likely it is that their performance will be affected, and in serious cases, one may even go astray.

Back then, Luo Yuan saw that he had little chance of winning, so he started to think of unconventional ideas - to be precise, he took advantage of the old man's absence to have a private relationship with his ex-wife. Not only was he unwilling to see the woman's heart gradually lean towards the other man, he also wanted to lay a backup plan for this day.

This method should also be applicable to dealing with the Luo family members in front of us.

"Not everyone is as shameless as you!"

He thought everyone else was dirty just because he was a dirty thing. Luo Sha finally understood why his father committed suicide out of shame. It was really disgusting to have this kind of garbage blood on his body. Luo Yuan was satisfied to see the fire burning in Luo Sha's eyes, just like the old man.

"Oh, is it so?"

The three simple words made Luo Sha feel that the world in front of him was painted blood red. In a trance, he saw the subordinates killed by Luo Yuan shed blood and tears from their seven orifices. These were the second best water fighters after him, and they were also brothers who grew up with him.

Just when his emotions were about to explode, a cool breeze fell over his head, and his scarlet vertical pupils returned to their original appearance. Luo Sha faced the killing move that was so close to him, and immediately his mind moved. The phantom of the fish tail released the waves to collide with it, canceling each other out: "Thank you!"

These words were naturally directed to Jimo Qiu.

Luo Yuan sneered, and gathered up his clothes that had been torn apart during the fight, transforming them into a martial armor. He did not forget to sneer, "As expected of you who was taught by the old man, your hypocritical appearance is similar to that of the old man."

Jimo Qiu: "How can a hypocritical person entrust his life to others?"

"If this old man isn't hypocritical, then who is?" Jimo Qiu's strength was not good enough for him. "How can a mere ant come and die?"

Jimo Qiu did not refute.

Ultimately, this is an internal problem of Roche.

Luo Sha was determined to clean up the family, and he probably had no mood to tell his blood grandfather that his cultivation was not only based on his superior talent and hard work, but also on the enlightenment given by another person.

Yes, enlightenment.

There is a threshold for genius.

Gongxi Chou belongs to the highest tier and has various bonus opportunities. For a long time, he was still a seedling in the Gongxi clan's thousands of acres of land. He was blessed by gods, but even so, it took him less than a year to break through to the eighteenth rank of great commoner. Luo Sha's talent is lower.

Even though Luo Sha is older, the extra years are not enough to make up for the gap between the two, but the reality is that he is slightly better.

Jimo Qiu easily smelled the same scent from the other person.

It's a revelation.

Or it is the "enlightenment" between people who practice the same source.

  Jimo Qiu boldly guessed that the person who cast [醍醐灌顶] should have done so without reservation, and completely lifted Luo Sha up to a higher peak. Judging from his aura, the person who cast it was probably barely at the Chehou realm before his death. At this level, as long as one is not determined to die, even if one is suffering from a stubborn disease, one can still survive for many years. In this comparison, isn't it clear who is hypocritical?

His guess was indeed accurate.

Luo Sha grabbed the water surface, and the river water flowed upstream, gently wrapped around his arm, and turned into a sharp weapon: "I made a vow to my ancestral land that year, I must chop off your head in this life to sacrifice to the ancestors and resolve the blood feud. Grandfather knows my heart..."

Luo Yuan was surprised for a moment.

He thought Luo Sha was an old man, but he didn't expect him to be a grandson. After calculating his age, he felt jealous.

Is this old guy worthy of having such talented grandchildren?

God is really blind.

"...Before he died, he decided to lend me a helping hand."

Just as Jimo Qiu guessed, his grandfather's health was not good, and his life span was much shorter than that of others in the same realm. He barely relied on external forces to break through when he was about to die, but his foundation was almost destroyed, and he had cultivation but could not display it. The good news was that he could continue to live for a few decades with his cultivation, and it would be no problem for him to live to his 200th birthday. The bad news was that living was more like torture.

[Alu, do you want to be a Marquis? ]

【My grandson will work hard. 】

[You are so crazy, do you know what it means that it is better to rely on the blessing of ancestors than to work hard on your own? Your ancestors are here! ]

"So, now it's Grandfather and I who will kill you together!"

Luo Yuan's heart skipped a beat when he heard this.

A helping hand before death...

He had been stranded in the 19th-rank Guannei Hou for many years, and gradually mastered many secret skills. As a grandson, Luo Sha was most likely no older than 50 years old, but at this age he could pose a threat to him...

He had already guessed what it was.

In an instant, his face was distorted with jealousy.

There are always many injustices in the world. He had to offer his childhood sweetheart as the price of his apprenticeship, but Luo Sha only needed to be a member of the Luo family to get the support of the old man at the risk of his life: "Oh, if the old man was in his prime, it would be difficult for him to kill me with his strength, but he chose to give you an 'enlightenment'. I guess the loss back then has never healed. Junior, do you want to give it a try?"

(＞＜)

In the past, with this kind of plot, the villain would basically find out that it was his own bloodline that killed him, and then he would be relieved and let it go before he died, or he would let go of the past grudges (what does it feel like that Vision's scumbag parents abandoned their children when they were young, and now they are old and have someone to take care of them in their old age?). This article should not happen like that, Luo Yuan just needs to die.
