Chapter 24: Python Revolver Breaks Defense! Tang Lan’s Performance Show!
"Attack!"
With Tang Lan's command,
Ning Rongrong was the first to act, summoning her Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda.
Zhao Wuji's eyes widened in surprise.
"A Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan disciple this year?!"
"Flender is gonna lose his mind with excitement!"
Before his words even fully landed,
He had already charged forward, aiming straight for Ning Rongrong.
—In battle, always take out the support first!
—Especially if it's a Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda user!
Tactical Control
Tang Lan and Tang San split left and right, avoiding direct contact.
Both activated their Martial Souls simultaneously.
"Second Soul Skill—Bind!"
"First Soul Skill—Blue Silver Emperor Thorns!"
A blue and green vine wrapped around Zhao Wuji from both sides.
But—
Zhao Wuji didn't even flinch.
He burst out with soul power—
"Boom—!"
Tang San's Blue Silver Grass was instantly shattered!
But—
Tang Lan's Life Soul Blue Silver Emperor only tightened even further,
Locking onto Zhao Wuji's waist and pulling him in!
"Huh?!"
Zhao Wuji was genuinely shocked.
"A Blue Silver Grass that strong?!"
Not only that—
He could feel his soul power, mental energy, and even vitality being drained.
"A mutated Martial Soul?!"
Zhao Wuji's Fatal Oversight
Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing attacked from the sides,
Drawing most of Zhao Wuji's attention.
But—
He completely overlooked one person.
The support soul master—Ning Rongrong.
—Because everyone knew Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda couldn't attack.
But this misconception would cost him dearly!
Ning Rongrong—Locked & Loaded!
Ning Rongrong retrieved two Python Revolvers from her storage device.
Then—
She pressed both barrels directly against Zhao Wuji's chest.
And—
Unloaded everything.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
A series of armor-piercing rounds slammed into Zhao Wuji's chest.
Tiny wounds opened, and blood trickled down.
Zhao Wuji: (⊙_⊙)???!
"What the f*?!**"
"You're supposed to be a Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan disciple!!"
"What the hell is that?!"
Even Ning Rongrong herself was stunned.
She had only followed the plan—
She hadn't expected this iron lump of a man to actually take damage!
Tang San, equally shocked, asked—
"What is that weapon?"
But—
There was no time to explain!
Tang Lan's Command
"Ning Rongrong! What are you standing there for?!"
Tang Lan's sharp voice snapped her out of it.
She instinctively activated her soul skills.
"Seven Treasures turn out with Glazed Light—First: Strength!"
Three beams of light shot toward Tang Lan, Tang San, and Xiao Wu.
"Seven Treasures turn out with Glazed Light—Second: Speed!"
Two more beams landed on Zhu Zhuqing and Xiao Wu.
With the enhancements in place—
Zhu Zhuqing moved first!
Netherworld Hundred Claws!
Her curvaceous body spun rapidly,
And in a fraction of a second,
Her clawed hands raked across Zhao Wuji's face repeatedly!
Blocking his vision.
"Slash—slash—slash!"
Meanwhile—
Beneath him,
Tang Lan's Life Soul Blue Silver Emperor shot up from the ground—
Aiming straight for Zhao Wuji's back door!
Zhao Wuji Panics!
"Shit!"
He realized the danger—
This mutated Blue Silver Grass was far stronger than expected!
And he had no time to reinforce his defense!
If it hit him—
Even if he clenched hard, his pants would definitely get ripped open!
Left with no choice,
Zhao Wuji jumped up, kicking the vine away.
But—
"Gotcha!"
Xiao Wu's Mid-Air Combo!
As Zhao Wuji was launched into the air,
Xiao Wu curled her long legs,
And with a powerful rabbit kick,
She sent him flying even higher!
Using the momentum, she bounced off the ground—
And soared right after him.
"First Soul Skill—Waist Bow!"
Then—
Zhao Wuji became a human ragdoll.
Xiao Wu slammed him back and forth through the air!
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
Finally—
She spun 1080 degrees and delivered a brutal air-slam!
"Soft Technique—Eightfold Throw!"
"Crash!"
The ground shattered, creating a massive crater.
Zhao Wuji was nowhere to be seen.
Everyone's Reactions
Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong stared in awe.
They never expected this cute bunny girl to be so vicious!
Dai Mubai, however, felt a cold sweat.
"If that had been me yesterday..."
Zhao Wuji Emerges!
"Hahaha—THAT WAS FUN!"
Zhao Wuji burst out of the pit,
His muscles bulging, his fists glowing with bear claw shadows.
"If I hadn't activated Martial Soul Possession in time, that might've actually hurt!"
He grabbed the Life Soul Blue Silver Emperor wrapped around his waist,
And with a hard pull—
"Rip—!"
The vine strained but didn't break!
Dai Mubai's face twitched.
"Even with Martial Soul Possession, he still can't tear it apart?"
"That durability is insane!"
"Oh? Interesting!" Zhao Wuji grinned.
"Now it's my turn!"
Tang Lan's Counterattack
Zhao Wuji's soul power surged as he yanked harder.
This time—
The Life Soul Blue Silver Emperor finally snapped!
But—
"Second Soul Skill—Blue Silver Emperor Explosion!"
"Boom! Boom! Boom!!!"
The torn vines detonated one after another,
Blasting shockwaves and sharp thorns everywhere!
"Clang! Clang! Clang!"
The thorns ricocheted off Zhao Wuji's hardened body.
Unfortunately—
His Martial Soul Possession defense was too strong.
The thorns failed to pierce him.
However—
Tang Lan suddenly clenched his fist.
"Explode!"
The scattered spikes swelled and burst open,
Transforming into a new wave of Life Soul Blue Silver Emperor vines,
Engulfing Zhao Wuji completely!
Tang San Joins In
Tang San's Blue Silver Grass shot forward,
Extending straight through the vine entanglement,
Its tip piercing out from the other end.
Everyone froze.
Did it actually work?!
Did Tang San's attack penetrate Zhao Wuji's defense?!
"Hahaha—BREAK!"
Suddenly,
The vine cocoon exploded,
Leaving only Tang San's Blue Silver Grass behind.
Zhao Wuji had clamped it between his neck,
And with a single spin,
He yanked Tang San into the air!
Tang San's Trump Card? Not Today!
As Zhao Wuji's bear paw came crashing down,
Tang San's eyes narrowed.
His head tilted slightly,
And his hidden sleeve arrows locked on target.
He was about to fire—
But—
Tang Lan was faster!
"Xiao San—let go!"
At the same time,
Tang Lan activated the barbs hidden in Tang San's Blue Silver Grass!
The Life Soul Blue Silver Emperor vines rapidly extended,
Latching onto the ground like tentacle roots.
Tang San let go just in time,
Landing on the ground and using Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track to dodge!
Zhao Wuji was about to chase—
But was intercepted by Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing from both sides!
Seeing the incense stick already burned halfway,
Zhao Wuji grinned.
"Not bad!"
"You guys are really impressive!"
"But it's time to end this!"
Beneath his feet,
His third soul ring shone brightly!
"Third Soul Skill—Gravity Enhancement!"
Zhao Wuji's Fifth Soul Skill—Gravity Compression!
A powerful gravitational field instantly enveloped the battlefield.
Everyone felt their bodies sink,
as if ten times their normal weight had suddenly pressed down.
Zhu Zhuqing and Xiao Wu, originally light and agile,
slowed to a crawl in an instant.
Zhao Wuji grabbed them both,
one in each hand, ready to slam them into the ground—
But—
"Third Soul Skill—Life Burial!"
Tang Lan's Lethal Counterattack
Without any warning,
as soon as the previous barbs had dissolved,
A new surge of Life Soul Blue Silver Emperor vines erupted,
instantly swallowing Zhao Wuji whole!
Zhao Wuji immediately realized something was wrong.
If the earlier absorption felt like a straw slowly draining him—
Then this time, it was like someone had sliced his artery open!
A devastating energy drain!
His grip weakened,
allowing Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing to escape.
The vines continued constricting,
threatening to crush him alive!
Zhao Wuji Attempts to Break Free
Zhao Wuji gathered soul power,
preparing to burst free from the entanglement—
But—
"Explode!"
Tang Lan's second soul ring flared!
The entire Life Soul Blue Silver Emperor cocoon detonated!
This time—
It wasn't just fragments.
The fully-intact Life Soul Blue Silver Emperor vines,
fueled by Zhao Wuji's own drained energy,
detonated all at once!
The explosion was so powerful,
even Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing, despite being at a distance,
were blown away by the shockwave!
The Aftermath
As the dust settled,
Zhao Wuji remained unscathed—
But—
His shirt and outerwear had been completely obliterated.
Leaving him in nothing but shredded shorts.
A truly spectacular humiliation.
Zhao Wuji's Rage—Fifth Soul Skill Activated!
"Alright, alright, ALRIGHT!"
Zhao Wuji gritted his teeth,
his face burning with anger.
"Then let's see how you handle this—"
His fifth soul ring—a deep black glow—
suddenly flared up!
"Fifth Soul Skill—Gravity Compression!"
The Battlefield Warps!
A black hole materialized above Zhao Wuji,
Emitting an overwhelming pressure,
squeezing the entire battlefield from all directions!
Not only that—
A powerful suction force began pulling everyone toward the black hole!
Tang San lowered his head once again,
Preparing to finally launch his Tight Back Flower Arm Crossbow—
But—
Tang Lan's Interception!
Tang Lan leaped straight toward Zhao Wuji!
He passed directly over Tang San,
blocking his line of fire.
Tang San was forced to halt again.
Zhao Wuji's Overconfidence
"Hahaha—Gotcha, kid!"
Zhao Wuji grinned,
extending his bear paw to seize Tang Lan!
But—
Tang Lan's right hand flashed—
A small, lightning-covered war hammer appeared.
Despite being compressed to the size of a palm,
it was charged with immense power.
His inner strength surged within.
"Soaring Sky Strike!"
Zhao Wuji prepared to block—
But then—
Sudden Change—!?
