The Aloof Lord's Mysterious Wife-Chapter 861: Not Just Myself, I Have a Helper
Chapter 861: Not Just Myself, I Have a Helper
Bai Peng hesitated for a moment.
However, Bai Hao had already jumped onto the Spirit Boat, pushing the paper man aside and saying, "Good! We’ll leave first, and you cover the rear!"
He grabbed the control panel.
Bai Peng leapt up, set his daughter down, and shoved Bai Hao aside.
"Uncle, in such a critical moment, you need to help!" Bai Peng was exasperated. "Don’t delay any longer; the paper man is steering the boat, just move!"
Bai Hao missed his chance to steer the boat again and felt his chest tighten with anger.
However, right now, the safety of the Bai family was more important.
His expression grew serious, and he went to assist.
Ancestor Chi, seeing the situation, immediately shouted, "Try to hold them off!"
Keep as many as possible!
The battlefield spanned both the ground and the sky.
This was, after all, the largest and most disastrous battle Jiuzhou Town had seen in a thousand years.
The Chi family had emptied their ranks, with the assistance of House Sima, making it nearly impossible for the Bai family to break through.
Fortunately, Nanli, alone, had set up a formation to temporarily hold off Ancestor Chi, Chi Yun, and others, allowing Bai Hao to lead the Bai family cultivators through a bloody path.
The Spirit Boat had already traveled far.
With Eleven Shans helping to cover the rear, the Bai family was on the verge of disappearing into the night.
Ancestor Chi was furious. At this critical juncture, he had finally figured out the core of the formation and slashed through it with his blade.
Nanli was shaken and fell to the ground.
But the Dark Moon Sword had a spirit of its own, and it helped her stabilize her posture.
Ancestor Chi squinted his eyes, his sleeve fluttering. "Nanli, your talisman skills are indeed formidable."
If it weren’t for her interference, not a single Bai family member would have escaped tonight, considering the Chi family’s meticulous preparations.
Not only them, but many cultivators from all directions had their eyes on Nanli.
Chi Yun raised his chin slightly. "Nanli, why bother protecting the Bai family? Look at them, they’ve abandoned you and fled."
Nanli stood alone below, and her figure appeared lonely.
Not only Qingwu, but even they knew Nanli could not possibly win against them, right?
After a short moment to adjust, Nanli’s face no longer appeared as pale. She said, "I’m not alone, I have a helper."
Ancestor Chi chuckled. "A helper? Who is it? Bring them out!"
Nanli pointed to the sky.
Was it the Heavenly Dao?
Or Siheng?
Everyone looked up.
But what they saw was a gigantic golden Buddha palm descending from the sky.
It was the Daluo Buddha Hand!
It was Cinian!
The cultivators panicked and quickly scattered.
Ancestor Chi was only momentarily shocked, but he quickly regained his composure.
His cultivation level was above Cinian’s, and he didn’t believe that he couldn’t block this move!
"Ancestor, no!" Chi Yun shouted.
"Come with me and kill that old monk!" Ancestor Chi sternly ordered. "As the head of the family, you should understand how rare this opportunity is!"
The Chi family could not let the Bai family escape; their energy had already been severely drained.
If they did not achieve something tonight, the Chi family would be utterly defeated!
Chi Yun composed himself and agreed.
He called on the remaining elders to immediately form a formation.
Meanwhile, he also had to be cautious of Nanli, to prevent her from launching a surprise attack.
Nanli smiled. "You’re the head of the family, but at least you have some brains."
Chi Yun did not dare to be careless.
He was a Spell Cultivator, but also a Sword Cultivator, skilled in close combat.
"Nanli, today we will settle things with swordsmanship!"
"Are you stupid? Qingwu is about to strike, why would I bother fighting you?"
Nanli rolled her eyes at him. As the Buddha hand descended, she used a few teleportations and appeared beside Cinian.
The wind howled in her ears.
She had even formed a Buddha seal, gathering spiritual energy to assist in strengthening the Daluo Buddha Hand.
Not far away.
Qingwu saw the increasing power of the Daluo Buddha Hand, and his figure froze for a moment.
"What... what?" He was so shocked that his jaw nearly dropped.
This move was so powerful that even he, in the mid-Great Achievement stage, might not be able to retreat unharmed.
Meanwhile, Sima Xin, watching from a distance, also felt a sense of fear.
She quickly steadied herself and instructed the elders behind her, "Hurry! Cinian will temporarily exhaust his spiritual energy after using this move. It’s the perfect time to capture him!"
Nanli was helping from the side, and they were both right.
They couldn’t miss this opportunity!
As they predicted, the huge Buddha hand descended, smashing the barrier formation and shattering Ancestor Chi’s blade.
Several of the elders couldn’t withstand the blow and collapsed, vomiting blood.
Ancestor Chi screamed, "I’ll fight you to the death!"
He used both hands to brace against the Buddha hand.
But the power was immense.
A crater formed in the ground as his knees began to bend slowly.
"Ancestor!" Chi Yun cried in anger, trying to move forward, but with his current cultivation, he could not even move an inch.
The Daluo Buddha Hand was glowing with golden light and Buddha light, but when it descended, it did not leave any chance for survival.
The Buddha hand pressed down directly onto the ground.
After a moment, Ancestor Chi’s voice could no longer be heard.
Chi Yun’s eyes widened as he saw the Buddha hand dissipate, revealing that Ancestor Chi and several elders were utterly crushed, reduced to a bloody mess!
Everyone who saw this gasped.
Chi Yun’s face turned pale, and his mind was consumed with one thought: he had to kill Cinian and Nanli!
He gritted his teeth, not speaking a word, and flew up.
He raised his sword to strike.
Nanli, holding Cinian by the collar with one hand, used her sword to block Chi Yun’s attack.
Chi Yun had lost his composure, and though he had bravery, he lacked strategy.
Nanli, with her teleportation technique, easily dodged and nearly decapitated Chi Yun with a single strike.
He fell to the ground, feeling his neck and seeing a pool of blood.
Nanli, seeing that Qingwu was approaching, did not spare a glance at Chi Yun. She rode her sword backward and fled.
"Nanli!" Chi Yun screamed in fury. "Don’t think you can escape!"
But Nanli’s speed on her sword was far beyond his ability to chase.
Cinian, being dragged by Nanli, was almost on the verge of passing out due to the fast speed.
"Na... Nanli, please, oh..." Cinian tried to speak but started vomiting yellow bile in mid-air.
But Nanli suddenly stopped.
She had just brushed past Sima Xin and the others.
Sima Xin quickly halted and turned around, using a provocative tone:
"Nanli, how long do you plan to run? We need to settle things between us!"
Nanli smiled at her. "I’m not in the mood today, but you should ask Qingwu how your son is doing. After all, he’s your only son now. If he ends up disabled... I already have a name for him: the one-armed cultivator. How about that?"
"You!" Sima Xin wanted to press further, but Nanli disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Helpless, she blocked Qingwu.
"What happened to A’Hu’s hand? What exactly happened?"
Qingwu, enraged, snapped, "You go to Jialan Celestial Mountain and see for yourself!"
The Chi family and House Sima’s cultivators were still chasing them, and he needed to catch up.
Nanli didn’t use any Nether Sect techniques or Transfer Talismans to leave because she wanted to solve these cultivators on her way.
Typical woman—she didn’t consider the situation at all, acting without regard for the bigger picture!
"Qingwu, he calls you ’honorable father,’ and this is how you protect him?" Sima Xin was already certain that Nanli’s words were true.
Her eyes grew fierce, unwilling to move.
