Chapter 74

Rong Kai Xuan's eyes flashed with a hint of doubt, and he said, "Why?"

Qi Duo Duo said, "A mid-stage Spirit Master must have already mastered second-tier lower-grade spells. Among these spells, there are many group attack spells that target not the same-tier experts but the next-lower-tier warriors." Her expression was extremely serious: "Especially when dealing with lower-tier Spirit Body Fighters, these spells can basically achieve instant kills."

Rong Kai Xuan's expression changed slightly, and he said, "Impossible."

Qi Duo Duo sneered, "You haven't seen a Spirit Master in action, but what about a Master-level warrior? Can they instantly kill your Spirit Body Fighters when they use their full strength?"

Rong Kai Xuan's face darkened. He thought back to the power of that punch in the market from Iron City, and the fact that Gu Wu had instantly killed eight Spirit Body Fighters in the forest with a burst of energy.

A powerful Master-level warrior could indeed instantly kill Spirit Body Fighters if they were not too numerous.

Seeing the changing expressions on Rong Kai Xuan's face, Qi Duo Duo already knew the answer. She smiled slightly and said, "Spirit Practitioners are different from warriors. We specialize in spells and know how to release the power of heaven and earth to the extreme, and how to deal with Spirit Body Fighters. Hmph, although I am only a late-stage Spirit Scholar now, I have mastered a few special group attack spells. As long as the Spirit Body Fighters you release cannot use True Qi, they cannot resist my group attack spells. Within the range of the spells, no matter how many Spirit Body Fighters there are, they will all explode."

Rong Kai Xuan had no doubt about the little girl's words, because from the moment she appeared mysteriously, the abilities she displayed had indeed made him look at her with new eyes.

Touching the spatial ring in his hand, Rong Kai Xuan's heart gradually sank.

At first, he thought that with over a thousand Fighter Talismans in his possession, he could sweep the world, at least ensuring his own safety.

Especially after killing two Master-level warriors, his confidence had soared to an unparalleled height.

But now, Duo Duo's words were like a bucket of cold water poured over his head, making him completely清醒. It turned out that in this world, there were still many higher-tier existences, and his strength was truly insignificant.

Qi Duo Duo giggled, "So, what do you plan to do now?"

Rong Kai Xuan hesitated for a moment and said, "No matter what, I won't let my brother and the others be in danger." He paused and said firmly, "I must go to save them."

Qi Duo Duo stared at him without blinking, "But this time, it might cost you your life."

Rong Kai Xuan's lips curled slightly, and he said coldly, "Not necessarily."

As soon as these two words were spoken, his thoughts had already conveyed to the Yintang point.

He gave the special Spirit Body Fighter a resolute order to return immediately.

If it were an ordinary mid-stage Spirit Scholar, they would be at a loss in this situation. But he was different. Besides the numerous talismans, he also had six special Spirit Body Fighters.

Moreover, he clearly remembered the immense power he had released when the Spirit Bodies exploded in Gan Gan City.

That power was no less than any Spirit Master.

With so many trump cards in his hand, he had great confidence in being able to fight.

In the Yintang point, a massive amount of information was immediately fed back.

The special Spirit Body Fighter did not refuse this time. It immediately moved quickly toward this place. And at this moment, Rong Kai Xuan also received the information it transmitted.

This was a very comforting message for him.

After successfully killing the giant python, the Spirit Body Fighter not only advanced to the late-stage Warrior but also condensed the True Qi Fist, a unique technique of warriors.

The True Qi Fist is a boxing technique that releases True Qi after compressing it to the extreme.

Only warriors who can perform the True Qi Fist can be called true warriors, and such warriors have the capital to contend with Spirit Practitioners.

Generally, the True Qi Fist is a hallmark of Master-level warriors. However, some powerful warriors can master this technique at the peak Warrior stage.

All peak Warriors who master the True Qi Fist are key figures in major families, as they are certain to advance to Master-level and often go further in their warrior path.

But now, the Spirit Body Fighter had just advanced to the late-stage Warrior and could already perform the True Qi Fist.

This was extremely rare among human warriors, with only a handful of such cases.

If he had heard this news at another time, Rong Kai Xuan would have been overjoyed. But at this moment, he only felt a slight happiness before quickly regaining his composure.

The advancement of the Spirit Body Fighter was good, but in the face of a mid-stage Spirit Master, it could still only be cannon fodder.

Qi Duo Duo looked at Rong Kai Xuan in surprise. She could see that this big guy was not just being tough, but truly had great confidence.

But she could not figure out where Rong Kai Xuan's confidence came from.

There was a significant gap between a mid-stage Spirit Scholar and a mid-stage Spirit Master, and even she would not dare to claim a sure victory.

Her eyes darted around, and she suddenly said, "Big guy, I'll go with you."

Lin Yulan's face changed drastically, and she quickly said, "Miss, absolutely not."

Rong Kai Xuan also shook his head repeatedly and said decisively, "No way."

Qi Duo Duo pouted her red lips and said, "Nanny, it's just a mere Spirit Master. As long as we prepare in advance, do you think they can threaten me?"

Lin Yulan was stunned for a moment. She glanced at Rong Kai Xuan and finally said, "Young man, if you are willing to follow the Miss's instructions, I guarantee that your relatives will be saved safely as long as they are still alive."

Rong Kai Xuan looked at Qi Duo Duo with surprise, his eyes filled with doubt.

Although these two people were mysterious, Qi Duo Duo was so young, yet she was making such a bold claim, which made it hard for him to believe.

Lin Yulan smiled slightly and said, "How about this, young man? Just follow the Miss's instructions, and if you have any questions, feel free to ask. What do you think?"

Rong Kai Xuan thought for a moment and reluctantly nodded, "Alright, but I must state in advance that if anything goes wrong, I will act according to my own judgment."

Qi Duo Duo huffed, seemingly angry at his lack of trust. She said proudly, "Rest assured, if I make any miscalculations this time, I will... I will be your free alchemist for life."

"Alright, what do we do now?" Rong Kai Xuan said casually.

He did not know the value of an alchemist, so he did not think this promise was particularly significant.

Lin Yulan, although feeling a bit uneasy, had absolute confidence in the Miss's planning ability. If it weren't for the Miss's strategic planning, they would have already fallen into the enemy's hands and would not have escaped.

"Hmph, what we need to do now is determine the enemy's strength and the time we have left." Qi Duo Duo's young face glowed with excitement, and at this moment, she seemed to be the center of attention, exuding an indescribable charm that slowly calmed Rong Kai Xuan's heart.

"They are after you. I need to know the entire cause and effect. Don't try to hide anything; tell me everything you know..."

In the forest, Gu Wen sat quietly, while Gu Bin occasionally got up and walked around the tree, sometimes fast, sometimes slow. After a while, he stopped and said, "Brother, the time is almost up. What do you think?"

Gu Wen opened his eyes, took out a talisman, and pondered for a moment before writing on it, "The time is almost up. Whose finger do you want?"

The two of them focused on the talisman. If there was no response now, it would mean that Rong Kai Xuan was either out of the talisman's range or had given up on Rong Kai Hua and the others.

Suddenly, Gu Bin's eyes lit up, and he exclaimed, "Brother, the communication talisman has a reply!"

A hint of terrifying light flashed in Gu Wen's eyes as he looked down. A line of text appeared on the talisman.

"I just returned to the communication range. Are they okay?"

Gu Wen snorted and wiped the text away.

"Whether they are okay depends on how fast you come."

"I will come as soon as possible. Tell me, how much time do I have left?"

Gu Bin's eyes sparkled, and he said in a low voice, "Brother, according to the coordinates, he indeed appeared suddenly thirty miles away."

Gu Wen nodded slowly and wrote on the talisman.

"Three hours, no later."

Far away, Rong Kai Xuan frowned and said, "Three hours, is that enough time?"

"Hmph, the time he gave us is not much. Although we are martial artists and our speed far exceeds that of ordinary people, this is a mountain path. While thirty miles in three hours is manageable, setting up anything along the way is not possible." Qi Duo Duo giggled, "Fortunately, our preparations are almost complete."

Rong Kai Xuan nodded slowly. At this moment, his gaze toward the little girl was completely different.

After seeing her ability to set traps, Rong Kai Xuan's confidence greatly increased, and he no longer doubted her words.

According to Qi Duo Duo, the traps she set up would ensure that no matter how many Master-level warriors or Spirit Masters came, they would not return. This was due to the limitations of materials. If there were sufficient resources and suitable materials, Qi Duo Duo could even set up a trap to confine and kill a先天stronger.

先天strongers are extremely proud figures who would never sneak into the deep mountains to deal with a mere mid-stage Spirit Scholar. Therefore, the chances of Qi Duo Duo's success this time were very high.

Qi Duo Duo took out her compass and giggled, "It doesn't matter if they don't reply. Since they did, it gives me an opportunity. Hmph, let me see how many of them there are."
