Another youkai

When the fox demon saw that the person who had come was Uncle Ming, who had injured it before, it was both shocked and enraged. For a moment, it didn't know whether to step forward and fight or retreat.

Uncle Ming had no such concerns at all. As he stepped out with the Taoist pacing steps, his gray nightgown fluttered without any wind and suddenly puffed up.

His figure was as swift as a ghost as he dashed to the side of the fox demon, blocking its escape route in an instant. The long sword in his hand emitted a brilliant red light. With a flick of his wrist, the sword stabbed out, clean and decisive.

This sword strike seemed ordinary at first glance, but in Yin Xiu's eyes, it left behind a trail of afterimages. Even the fox demon, which was extremely fast in both speed and reaction, evaded it in a rather awkward manner. It was stabbed under the rib, and blood gushed out.

In pain, the fox demon opened its mouth and spewed out a thick cloud of green smoke. Seeing this, Uncle Ming immediately held the long sword horizontally in front of his chest. A faint yellow light appeared in front of him, blocking the smoke.

For the parts outside the faint light, as soon as the green smoke made contact, it immediately left large and small holes on the wall, obviously showing extremely strong corrosiveness.

Just as Yin Xiu was about to step forward to help, he was forced back by the thick smoke and had no choice but to retreat.

However, with this shield in place, Uncle Ming was completely fearless. Instead of retreating, he advanced and stabbed with the sword again. A large piece of meat on the fox demon's hand, along with blood, spun and fell to the ground.

In pain, the fox demon's original fear vanished completely. All the fur on its body bristled again. Overwhelmed with boundless anger, it slapped Uncle Ming fiercely with one of its claws.

This claw strike was extremely powerful. Before the claw reached him, the airflow generated by it lifted Uncle Ming's nightgown, revealing his smooth and skinny thighs underneath.

This time, Uncle Ming didn't confront it head-on. Instead, he suddenly raised his foot and kicked the fox demon in the chest.

This kick was just a minor annoyance to the fox demon. But by taking advantage of the reaction force from this kick, Uncle Ming did a somersault in the air and gracefully dodged the claw strike that could almost tear half of his body apart.

The fox demon missed with its strike, and its body immediately lost its balance and toppled forward.

Taking advantage of this gap, Uncle Ming struck with the sword again. It was almost as if the fox demon had run into the sword on its own. One of the fox demon's ears was immediately cut off, and blood spurted all the way to the ceiling, gushing out continuously.

"Daoist, leave some leeway for others. It'll be easier to meet again in the future. How about we talk? Whether it's money or something else, we can negotiate. We can work it out in a way that's acceptable to both sides."

The fox demon covered the part that had been cut off, stared at him fiercely, but had a flattering expression on its face, looking very contradictory. If it weren't for the fact that it couldn't beat him, this old man in front of it would probably have had his marrow gnawed clean by now.

"Leave some leeway for others? Are you even human?" Uncle Ming spat on the ground.

"Since the first generation of our Mao family's patriarch passed down to my generation, there has never been a time when we negotiated with demons."

Uncle Ming stomped his foot wearing slippers heavily again. The long sword in his hand suddenly emitted a dazzling light, and streaks of golden light shot towards the fox demon. Wisps of white smoke rose from its body, and a more miserable scream than before came out of the fox demon's mouth.

Seeing the long sword in Uncle Ming's hand working like a lightsaber in a science fiction movie, Yin Xiu looked at the rickety folding stool in his own hand and finally decided to step aside and protect the only remaining belongings in the room.

"This beast is going to make a last-ditch struggle!"

With a loud shout from Uncle Ming, the fox demon opened its mouth, and a round ball resembling a green marble shot out from its mouth towards Uncle Ming.

When Yin Xiu saw that strange ball, just one glance made him feel dizzy and he lost his focus in an instant, as if he had just taken a short nap.

In just an instant, when he opened his eyes again, the fox demon, which was about the size of a human, had disappeared in front of him.

A flash of white light appeared in the room!

It turned out that after the fox demon sacrificed its demon core, due to their respective reasons, there was a gap in the encirclement formed by Yin Xiu and Uncle Ming around the fox demon.

Moreover, the restraint imposed on it by the talisman water from Wong Tai Sin Temple had also weakened a lot. It immediately shrank and turned into a fox the size of a cat, and was about to jump through the gap between the two of them and rush out of the door.

"Evil creature, where do you think you're going!" Yin Xiu came to his senses and let out a loud shout. At the same time, Uncle Ming's hand also grabbed the fox demon's tail.

His veins bulged on his hand, and his muscles stood out prominently. In the blink of an eye, he tightly grasped the tail in his hand.

The fox demon became desperate. Fear, unwillingness, and the threat of death mixed together. Its originally scattered gaze focused again, emitting a terrifying green light.

The life-and-death struggle happened in an instant.

The front half of its body twisted back like a snake and was about to bite Uncle Ming's wrist. Its sharp teeth were like a row of yellowed guillotines!

With a dull sound that made one's bones ache, blood and teeth spun in the air together.

At the critical moment, Yin Xiu somehow found the strength and directly stuffed his left mechanical prosthetic arm into the fox demon's mouth. No matter how strong the fox demon's bite force was or how sharp its teeth were, they were extremely vulnerable in the face of steel.

With just one bite, two of its canine teeth and some of its molars shattered together, causing the fox demon so much pain that it almost fainted.

At the same time, the dagger that had been hidden on his body and hadn't had a chance to be used was also pulled out by Yin Xiu and stabbed deeply into the fox demon's back, with the entire handle going in.

The fox demon was left with only the strength to gasp for air.

"Mind your own business! Did I ask for your help?"

Uncle Ming snorted coldly. With a flick of the long sword in his hand, he slashed towards the fox demon's body, intending to cut it in half and kill it completely.

Just then, the wall of the small room, which had already endured so much, was suddenly smashed open by a black figure, and dust filled the air.

Yin Xiu turned around and only saw a pitch-black werewolf burst in. Before he could be surprised, the werewolf's claws slapped towards the heads of the two of them.

Yin Xiu and Uncle Ming simultaneously released the fox demon and retreated back in tacit understanding, avoiding its sharp attack.

However, Uncle Ming's retreating steps were smooth and flowing, looking calm and composed.

While Yin Xiu could only roll on the ground in a 狼狈 manner, and he barely managed to avoid being injured by the sharp claws.

It was obvious that the werewolf's attack was just a feint. After forcing the two of them back, it held the fox in its arms with one hand. It didn't want to fight either. It just stared at the two people in the room with its red eyes and slowly moved towards the door.

The werewolf's eyes then turned to the round ball hovering in the air. It seemed to have lost a lot of its magic power. Now, even if Yin Xiu looked directly at it, he didn't have the same dazed feeling as before.

"This guy wants to take the demon core away," Uncle Ming said in a deep voice.

Yin Xiu immediately raised the folding stool in his hand. The two of them, one on the left and one on the right, blocked the green demon core behind them.

Seeing that there was no chance, the werewolf let out a disgruntled snort, held the fox in its arms, rushed out of the door, and jumped directly downstairs. The sound disappeared.

Yin Xiu immediately looked at Uncle Ming upon seeing this. "Uncle Ming, should we chase after it?"

"Chase... Are you going to chase after it and get yourself killed!"

He glared at Yin Xiu, then looked in the direction where the werewolf had gone. He seemed reluctant to give up. After letting out a sigh, he said, "Come and help me sit down. I sprained my ankle."

"..."

Yin Xiu put down the folding stool in his hand and propped it on the ground.
