Chapter 555 You, Great Buddha
Looking at the imprisoned "Scorpion," Wang Xinyao quickly formed hand seals, and mysterious runes flew from her fingertips and entered the "Scorpion's" body.
Zhao Haoxuan and Chen Qingfeng also dared not slack off and assisted from both sides.
The powerful forces intertwined, forming an energy vortex capable of destroying everything.
The surrounding air seemed to have been sucked out, and the ground cracked inch by inch under the immense pressure.
Even the light was distorted and dimmed in this violent energy field.
Scorpion let out a mournful roar, its whole body trembling.
He never imagined that his thousand-year plan would be thwarted by these few "youngsters".
His illusory figure could no longer hold on and collapsed to his knees with a thud, his voice trembling with sobs.
"Please...please spare me! I swear, if you allow me to be reincarnated, I will never harm the world again!"
"Swear an oath?" Wang Xinyao sneered, her hands still forming runes. "Do you even believe your own oath?"
The voice of 'Scorpio' changed to Liu Jianwen's, and he said earnestly, "Xinyao! I was the one who signed the document when you were a probationary officer at the police station!"
"If I hadn't agreed, how could you have passed the review? Please, for my sake, spare me this time..."
"Pah!" Before Wang Xinyao could respond, Xiao Yifeng, who was hiding in the protective circle, jumped up first.
"Liu Jianwen, have you no shame? Xinyao stayed on through her own abilities. Your signature was just following procedure. Do you really think you're a benefactor?"
"Xiao Yifeng! Shut up!"
Scorpio suddenly turned his head, his eyes filled with resentment: "You were able to get promoted back then, wasn't it because of my help? Now you've learned to kick me when I'm down!"
"Promotion?" Xiao Yifeng laughed angrily: "You wanted to put your own person in my place back then. If it weren't for the number of cases I solved, and your cronies being so useless, would I have even gotten a chance? Stop pretending! You have to pay the price for your crimes, that's the rule!"
Scorpio was speechless and simply turned his face away.
He switched to Zhao Yucheng's voice and addressed Zhao Haoxuan, his tone suddenly becoming both pained and loving.
"Xuan'er...do you still remember? From the time you were three years old, your royal uncle taught you horse stance, took you riding horses, and guided you in cultivation..."
I watched you grow up, from a martial artist to a martial arts master… Have you forgotten all of this affection?
Zhao Haoxuan tightened his grip on the sword, his knuckles turning slightly white.
Those scenes from my childhood did indeed flash through my mind.
His uncle carried him on his shoulders to watch the drills on the training ground, and explained martial arts techniques to him in the study…
During his formative years, he almost took over the role of his father!
That brief moment of warmth was a rare bright spot in his childhood.
But ever since his younger brother was born, he has been subjected to countless taunts and suppressions from his uncle, as well as constant attempts to frame him and even poison him.
Even after escaping from the prison, he still wouldn't let himself go.
They sent wave after wave of assassins to kill him.
All his kindness was like honey wrapped in poison, meant to make him realize his own mediocre abilities.
If he hadn't met Xin Yao, he would have died eight hundred times over.
Zhao Haoxuan closed his eyes, and the faint warmth of his childhood was completely swallowed up by the chill at this moment.
When I opened my eyes again, all that remained was a chilling coldness.
"I studied under you for eighteen years, yet I couldn't even beat Zhou Yunxi. Is this the result of your 'dedicated' teaching? Is this your reason for wanting to kill me later?"
"That, that was a misunderstanding!"
Scorpio Zhao Yucheng hurriedly explained, "Uncle, your mind has been controlled by Yin Ling'er! She bewitched me! Xuan'er, believe me..."
"Enough." Zhao Haoxuan interrupted him, the Dragon Sword humming: "Still lying at this point. You know how much innocent blood you have on your hands. If I spare you today, Heaven will not tolerate it."
Before he finished speaking, his sword strike suddenly intensified, and golden light shone brightly!
When 'Scorpio' realized that gentle persuasion was ineffective, his face instantly contorted, and a strange, dark red power exploded from his ethereal body.
"You want me to vanish into nothingness? Not so easy! Even if I'm left with only a wisp of consciousness, I'll take someone down with me!"
That force bypassed Wang Xinyao and Zhao Haoxuan in front of them and went straight for Xiao Yifeng in the protective circle!
"Yifeng, be careful!" Chen Qingfeng reacted quickly, flashing in front of the circle and pushing out a thick wall of energy with both palms, barely dispersing the fatal blow.
Xiao Yifeng was so frightened that his back went cold and his heart was pounding. He felt like he had one foot in the grave.
But seeing the fierce battle unfolding before him, he not only did not back down, but instead sat down cross-legged.
He took out a Spirit Gathering Pill that Wang Xinyao had given him and swallowed it in one gulp.
He thought to himself: So what if it's dangerous? If you're afraid, don't be a cop! If you're not strong enough, you have to fight even harder!
He closed his eyes and forcefully circulated the meager spiritual energy within his body—even if it could only be slightly stronger, he had to seize the opportunity!
The battle has reached its climax.
The ethereal form of "Scorpion" was repeatedly cleaved apart by the Dragon Sword, only to reassemble itself time and again.
Each time he gathered, he launched a sneak attack on Xiao Yifeng, clearly trying to find an "easy target" to exploit.
Although Xiao Yifeng was within the protective circle, he felt as if his soul was trembling with each attack.
Seeing this, Wang Xinyao shouted to Chen Qingfeng, "Dad! It's too dangerous for Senior Brother to be here. Let's get him out of here first!"
Just as Chen Qingfeng was about to nod, Xiao Yifeng suddenly opened his eyes, his gaze filled with an unprecedented firmness.
"Captain Wang! Xin Yao! Let me stay! This kind of situation might only happen once in a lifetime... I can handle it, and I feel... like I'm about to break through!"
He was telling the truth. A surge of heat had risen in his dantian, and the previously sluggish meridians were now experiencing a tearing pain, but also a feeling of fullness from the increase in strength.
After this, he should be able to skip several levels and break through directly to the fifth level of martial artist.
Seeing his insistence, Wang Xinyao stopped trying to persuade him and focused more intently on maintaining the sealing runes.
Finally, after being scattered countless times, the phantom of 'Scorpion' shrank by half and could no longer muster the strength to fight back.
Just then, two figures rushed over from a distance; they were Zhao Shun and Madam Yu.
Madam Yu was carrying an unconscious spirit in her hands.
The Black and White Impermanence floated behind them, their faces saying, "We're just here to make up the numbers."
Scorpion, grasping at a straw, hissed at the Black and White Impermanence: "You two! Hurry up and take away Yin Ling'er's soul! Otherwise, I will definitely report you to King Yama for dereliction of duty!"
Wuchang grinned widely, laughing heartlessly: "Oh dear, don't scare us. Lady Yu is a princess of the divine realm. Our King Yama is very familiar with the Gods. If the sky falls, the higher-ups will hold it up."
“Yes, we dare not touch such a great Buddha as you! How dare we, mere ghost messengers, interfere with the people that the Immortal Venerable and the Immortal Emperor want to seal?” Hei Bai nodded repeatedly, holding his mourning stick.
Scorpio was about to curse again, but Zhao Shun had already lost his patience. He raised his hand and struck down with a palm imbued with divine power: "Shut up!"
The ethereal body let out a miserable cry and shrank even further.
