Chapter 2818 Xiaoman (Counterattack!)
At this moment, the ancient witch's weird laughter was heard outside.
The laughter was sharp and piercing, like the cry of a night owl, making people feel creepy.
"Hu Xiaoman, I didn't expect you to know the art of formation."
"It's useless. Although you understand the formation, you only know the basics."
"If you come out now, I can still spare your life!"
Then, the ancient witch spoke to Chu Ruo again.
"Princess Chu Ruo, you have been obedient since you were young, and your father loves you very much."
"You know, there are many treasures hidden in your father's chamber."
"Chu is in crisis right now. Your father's treasures are our last resort. How can you bring outsiders in?" Gu
"If you don't want to be Hu Xiaoman's substitute, then we won't force you."
"After all, we now know that Hu Xiaoman is not dead."
"Princess Chu Ruo, your cultivation is much stronger than Hu Xiaoman's."
"As long as you grab Hu Xiaoman next to you right now and throw her out, you will still be our noble princess of Chu!"
The ancient witch's voice changed from gentle persuasion at the beginning to increasingly excited at the end, as if Chu Ruo standing inside would definitely do what she said.
But when the ancient witch finished her words, Chu Ruo let out a clear laugh.
She crossed her arms over her chest, with the corners of her mouth raised high, as if she had heard the funniest joke in the world.
"You damn witch, I won't help you catch Xiaoman."
"Aren't you awesome?"
"If you have the guts, come in and catch it yourself!"
"I think you are a useless coward. Now you can't even enter the formation you set up."
Chu Ruo sneered mercilessly.
While Chu Ruo was angering the ancient witch, she looked at Hu Xiaoman.
Hu Xiaoman nodded slightly to show his agreement. Chu Ruo immediately became emboldened and spoke even more rudely.
"Old witch, come in if you can,"
"You coward, I don't think you dare."
"Don't you think you are very powerful?"
"Now, you can't even catch me and Hu Xiaoman. I think you'd better get out of our Chu State as soon as possible..."
Chu Ruo became more and more excited as he spoke, his voice getting louder and louder, and every word was filled with anger and contempt.
It’s so refreshing!
The ancient witch outside was completely enraged by Chu Ruo.
Her face turned red, her eyes were as big as copper bells, and there was a flame of anger burning in them.
She let out an even more angry roar, shaking the air around her.
She held the Hydra staff tightly in both hands, raised it high, and then swung it with force. With a "boom" it landed in the center of the killing formation, and roared with full momentum.
"I'll show you what it means to seek your own death!"
As she finished speaking, the ancient witch's eyes had turned into a dark green, like two will-o'-the-wisp lights flickering in the darkness.
The Hydra staff in her hand also turned into a giant python with nine heads. The nine snake heads were raised high, and long tongues came out of their mouths, making a hissing sound.
The nine snake heads danced and swept away the densely packed evil spirits.
The ancient witch laughed loudly, her laughter was crazy and terrifying.
She tilted her head back, her hair flying in the wind, and a ferocious smile appeared on her face.
Guarded by a nine-headed giant snake, she walked towards Hu Xiaoman and Chu Ruo step by step.
With every step he took, the killing array shook.
At this moment, Chu Ruo's heart was in her throat. Her hands clenched unconsciously, her knuckles turned white due to the force, and her eyes revealed tension and fear.
Xiao Huang, who was sitting on Hu Xiaoman's shoulders, was so scared that his legs became weak like noodles and he didn't have any strength at all.
It hugged Hu Xiaoman's hair tightly and its body trembled.
But facing the ancient witch who was approaching step by step, a smile appeared on Hu Xiaoman's lips.
There was confidence and calmness in that smile.
She said coldly: "It's time to witness a miracle."
Hu Xiaoman took a deep breath, concentrated his mind, mobilized his spiritual power, and slightly curled his fingers.
Suddenly, an invisible force was pulling the killing formation.
The entire killing array began to shake, with sand flying and dust filling the air.
The evil spirits in the killing array disappeared, and were replaced by talismans emitting golden light.
These golden talismans quickly condensed together to form a mirror emitting golden light.
The light from the mirror shone on the ancient witch, and she let out a shrill cry.
The cry was so sharp and piercing that it seemed to pierce one's eardrums.
Under this intense shouting, the ancient witch curled up completely, her body shaking constantly.
There was a look of horror on her face and her eyes were wide open with fear.
As she continued to howl, she gradually turned into a red-bottomed mandrill.
The mandrill had an ugly appearance, messy hair, and a particularly conspicuous red butt.
It let out angry and fearful roars in the killing array.
Hu Xiaoman knew that by standing outside the killing formation, he could see the scene inside the killing formation.
Those people outside can also see what is happening inside the killing array.
Tonight's sacrificial ceremony is already grand, with all civil and military officials present.
Since they have found themselves in the bedroom of the Emperor of Chu, which is also the treasure house of the entire Chu State.
Therefore, all the civil and military officials of the Chu State must be standing outside the palace at this moment, watching the killing array.
At the moment when the ancient witch turned into a red-butt mandrill, all kinds of shocked discussions were heard outside the killing formation.
"How is this going?"
"How did an ancient wizard become a red-butted mandrill?"
"Yes, this... this is a monster!"
"Could it be that we have all been deceived by the ancient wizard?"
"The ancient wizard is a monster transformed by a red-butt mandrill. We are actually watching a monster performing a ritual?"
“This is too scary…”
Various discussions outside kept coming into Hu Xiaoman's ears.
The smile on her lips became even happier.
Looking at the red-butt mandrill in the killing array with a look of fear and pain on its face, he raised his eyebrows.
His eyes suddenly became extremely cold.
She hooked her fingers, and the large mirror formed by talismans emitted a stronger light.
The entire killing formation began to shake continuously.
Finally, the killing array turned into four swords shining with cold light. The swords were flashing with icy light, containing endless murderous intent.
Under the suppression of the mirror, the red-butt mandrill could not move. The four swords that transformed from the killing formation pierced into the body of the red-butt mandrill with a "bang".
"what……"
With a shrill cry, the four swords nailed the red-butt mandrill to the ground.
Dark green blood flowed out, soaking the ground.
The red-butt mandrill gradually lost its vitality, its body became transparent, and finally disappeared along with the killing formation.
The moment the killing array disappeared, Hu Xiaoman carried the wooden coffin on his back and took Chu Ruo's hand.
She put a speed talisman on herself and Chu Ruo respectively.
Before the civil and military officials could recover from the shock of seeing the ancient wizard transform into a red-butt mandrill and be killed by the killing array, they only felt two gusts of wind blowing past them.
Hu Xiaoman and Chu Ruo were no longer in the bedroom.
