Chapter 77: The Attack of the Strange Insects
Light and shadow intertwined, a powerful aura stirred the air. Red spear shadows pierced through the night sky, unstoppable like a broken army, but were instantly swallowed by a massive bloody mouth halfway.
Speeding through the sky, Jinyun E, wearing a ghostly mask, complained while clutching his stomach, “Not tasty.”
As he spoke, a huge black monument formed from shadows descended from the sky.
Seeing this, Bai Chong with the number nine marked on his chests produced crackling sounds under his black and white robes. Then, a gigantic scorpion tail emerged from under his robes and swung upward. In the blink of an eye, it smashed the black monument into pieces.
Bai Chong was holding a statue of a ghostly Buddha with three heads and six arms in his hands. The Buddha’s belly wriggled, and in moments, it spat out a pile of debris.
“This Dragon Protection Monument is indeed fake,” the Buddha statue said, sounding as if everything was within its expectations.
“Where is the real one?” Bai Chong asked.
“I couldn’t predict that, but it must be that old fogey who blocked the heavenly secrets. However, I can be certain that the Dragon Protection Monument is not in Qiyuan City,” the Buddha statue grinned.
Bai Chong said calmly, “They knew the Dragon Protection Monument was fake, yet they pursued us relentlessly. It seems like they want someone to escort the real Dragon Protection Monument back to Qiyuan City.”
