Chapter 557: Who Carries More Weight
Whether it was the Blank Fiend or the Twin Fiends of Hejian, they were all elders of the martial world’s previous generation.
Li Mochou, relying on the Ancient Tomb Sect’s ultimate techniques and her combat prowess, could barely hold off one of them. Now, with all three attacking her from different angles, how could she possibly withstand them?
However, Li Mochou, who had long wandered between life and death, reacted swiftly. She first fired several Ice Soul needles, forcing the Blank Fiend back, and then used her whisk to block the Twin Fiends’ acupoint-sealing pegs and judge’s pens.
The Twin Fiends cooperated seamlessly. Both extended two fingers imbued with ‘One Finger Zen’ from opposite sides, striking toward her. Suddenly, a black mist rose from Li Mochou’s palm, which she raised to meet Bu Tai’s fingers. The impact sent her flying back a step, narrowly avoiding Hao Mi’s strike.
Seeing her fend off three veteran masters in a flash, the crowd burst into loud cheers.
Bu Tai shot a vicious glare at the onlookers, and the tavern fell silent. He lifted his darkening fingers, his face changing slightly. “Five Poison Palm!”
“How does the taste of my Five Poison Palm feel?” Li Mochou smiled faintly, though her heart was bitter. The earlier exchange had successfully poisoned her opponent, but her own arm had gone numb from the impact. It was unlikely she could use it again anytime soon.
With an arm crippled, she could no longer use her whisk in tandem with the Five Poison Palm and Frozen Soul Needles. This would cut her combat power in half. If these three worked together, she’d fall within thirty moves.
“Senior Brother, expel the poison quickly!” Hao Mi urged, shielding his brother while blocking Li Mochou’s escape route.
