Hearing Li Po-xiao's voice, Xi Jun rushed forward like a mad tiger.

Xi Jun had never been injured before. It was because of the spell that night that a ghastly scar ran from her neck to her chest, so she had memorized the voice, and at the first opportunity, she would fight to the death.

In the yin-yang eyes, Li Po-xiao's aura was extremely aggressive, surging in from the open gate. I was shocked. Wang Cheng couldn't last three rounds against Xi Jun, and Xi Jun couldn't last even one round against Li Po-xiao.

Yao Long seemed unaware, and I suddenly jumped back, shouting, "Uncle Yao, be careful!"

Boom!

Li Po-xiao's spell instantly hit Yao Long!

Yao Long was thrown back, crashing into the bar counter, which dented. His head drooped, and his breathing was shallow.

"Call the police quickly!"

"What police? I've memorized all of you. When the police come, I'll find you!"

The scene became chaotic, and a few people who were not involved immediately fled.

Only some practitioners from the Li, Zhang, Wang, and Kong families blocked the alley entrance, prepared for the confrontation. Who among them didn't know what had happened in the teahouse?

But the entire incident, from start to finish, took only a few moments, and someone was already dead?

"Li Po-xiao! You're asking for death!" My pupils constricted, and intense hatred surged to the limit!

Li Po-xiao wasn't targeting Yao Long but me. However, Yao Long said he would protect me, so he moved to block the fatal blow!

Xi Jun arrived from behind, raising her head and roaring in the air. A terrifying crimson light shot towards Li Po-xiao! She held nothing back; this was her most powerful spell.

Boom!

Li Po-xiao made a mistake, and a moment of hesitation almost got him hit by the light. He quickly twisted his body, landing on one hand and flipping to the back!

Xi Jun's light didn't disappear but chased after Li Po-xiao's body! Li Po-xiao, a master of spell duels, had already finished his incantation while flipping. A talisman fell from his hand, and a transparent Bagua shield instantly blocked the red light!

Strange flames rose, and the red light disappeared. However, as soon as Li Po-xiao landed, Song Wan-yi's seven or eight air-splitting wind blades immediately reached him, making a hissing sound that was unbearable to the ears!

Two bloody slashes appeared on Li Po-xiao's arm and thigh, causing him to frown.

"Two powerful ghost generals. Another one might pose a threat. All things are settled, the universe is reversed, lei." Li Po-xiao, seemingly unfazed by the pain, pinched a talisman and threw it into the air, creating a misty blue smoke. When he walked out of the smoke, the bleeding stopped.

"You've injured my body. Today, I'll take you seriously and show you what the Dao of the Universe is!" Li Po-xiao said, drawing out a peachwood sword, biting his tongue, and spitting blood onto the sword. He took a handful of spell salt and scattered it on the blade. The salt stuck to the blade due to the blood, and as he threw the talisman, he immediately drew in the air: "All gods return, all generals follow, the universe lends its power, quick break!"

Instantly, the sound of metal and horses seemed to vibrate my eardrums. In the yin-yang eyes, layers of aura surged towards me, and a thousand troops and horses trampled towards me in the mist!

"It's the power of the universe! Junior, step aside! You're no match for him!" Senior Hai held five human-shaped talismans, bit his finger, and drew them, quickly chanting: "Yin and yang balance, the five elements shift, the universe lends its power, five immortals!"

Senior Hai pushed his palm, and the five talismans turned into five immortal-like shadows, colliding with the thousand troops!

With the yin-yang eyes, I finally saw the truth behind the seemingly ordinary spell duel. The two intense clouds of energy rolled and dissipated.

Indeed, running away was the best option, but the battle was a mess. Senior Hai's spell was no match for Li Po-xiao, and he was severely injured by the aftermath, flying back!

I stood there in shock. This was Senior's most powerful spell!

"Emperor's presence, divine generals by my side, the universe lends its power, feather break!" Li Po-xiao, seemingly unharmed, pressed forward, throwing a blue talisman and drawing with the peachwood sword, pointing at Xi Jun and Song Wan-yi!

Two divine generals' shadows stood behind them, one holding a knife and the other a sword. They disappeared and reappeared in front of Xi Jun and Song Wan-yi, raising their weapons to strike!

Xi Jun and Song Wan-yi, just reacting to the sudden appearance of the ghosts, were hit by a knife and a sword, flying back. Two long, crimson slashes appeared on their bodies, and their souls became unstable!

Xi Jun, lying on the ground, struggled to get up, but the red and black in her eyes had dimmed. Song Wan-yi panted heavily, with a sword wound on her back that was three feet long.

Such a strike could scatter my soul at any moment!

"Nine heavens, nine hells, the universe lends its power, shock soul!" One after another, these were all coated with spell salt, but Li Po-xiao threw them as if they were free and without regard for his life!

Until the sword pointed at me, a buzz, and my yin-yang eyes saw countless mysterious lights. I was almost blinded! My eyes hurt terribly, and my mind was in chaos!

All of this happened in just over two minutes, so fast that it was suffocating. Senior Hai and I only lasted two minutes?! Li Po-xiao was definitely more powerful than Li Rui-zhong!

Is this the strength of a true successor of the Dao of the Universe?!

Hit by the spell, I knelt on the ground, my eyes bloodshot, feeling my blood and qi surge as if something was about to burst out! Was my soul about to emerge? At this moment, my sister-in-law suddenly tugged at my sleeve, and I instantly became clear!

Li Po-xiao was trying to capture my soul!

I immediately bit my tongue, spitting out a mouthful of blood, and the intense pain brought my soul back!

"Damn Li Po-xiao! Do you think the Ghost Dao is like raising cats and dogs? I'll fight you to the death! Xi Jun, Song Wan-yi! Come back!" I tasted the blood on my tongue and recalled the Ghost Dao talismans I had learned.

If I inherited the Ghost Dao, I should be able to borrow its power, so I quickly drew the talismans on the ground until the last stroke connected the Ghost Dao!

"Heroic soul at the end of the road, blood across the sky, the Ghost Dao lends its power! Blood robe!" I'll borrow it once and see!

Instantly, a sea of blood seemed to surge from my veins, and it worked!

I felt my soul uneasy, my blood churning, and a cold wind emerged from the ground, covering me in a misty blood robe!

Song Wan-yi and Xi Jun quickly recovered in the sea of blood, their bodies turning red! Their strength might have increased, but it looked quite impressive.

"Are you serious? The Ghost Dao, huh? I've seen it before! But you're not quite up to it." Li Po-xiao sneered, drawing his peachwood sword and cutting his fingertip, leaving a trail of blood on the blade.

Why was it so difficult for me to borrow the Ghost Dao this time?

I saw Li Po-xiao play with the power of the universe as if it were a game?

My vision blurred, and I almost fell to the ground! The blood robe had also dimmed, about to disappear!

My sister-in-law started pulling my sleeve frantically. I had said, why didn't she move when I fought Li Rui-zhong, but she always pulled my sleeve when Li Po-xiao appeared!

Who is Li Po-xiao?

Fear began to spread, and I instinctively started to back away.

"Ha ha ha! Good, good! No wonder you're Li Po-xiao of the Dao of the Universe!"

In the midst of despair, Yao Long, who seemed dead, suddenly appeared behind me, extending a large hand to steady me and hiding me behind him.

"Uncle Yao?" I was stunned. I was worried about how to escape, but how did Yao Long survive?

"Watched for a long time, I finally understand." Yao Long lowered his head and laughed. "Little brother, it's not your business here! Uncle Yao will protect you, no questions asked! Glory? You can show it off later, om mani padme hum! Six-character mantra, the seal of the destruction of spells!"

I saw his large hand push and instantly grab Li Po-xiao's talisman, pushing him out of the door with a boom!

My eyes widened, and I was stunned by his move! This was too dominant! Was it the profound secret method of the Buddhist school, the Great Seal? No wonder he could easily push a large table and protect me.

Li Po-xiao was pushed back two steps and immediately formed a seal, pulling out a spell: "Ten thousand if..."

"Ha ha, I, Yao Long, am protecting this person for three days. What are you meddling for?" Yao Long, with a harmless smile, showed his bloody teeth. He might think he looked like Maitreya Buddha, but to me, he was definitely a demonic dragon!

He stepped forward, charging at Li Po-xiao like a yak!

Li Po-xiao threw two talismans, and with a bang, Yao Long charged forward, stepping back two steps, his face turning pale.

Li Po-xiao couldn't hold back a mouthful of blood, spitting it out.

"Po-xiao! Stop!" Li Rui-zhong immediately ran over to stop Li Po-xiao. "We agreed on three days. Why make it difficult for them? The mystic arts should be handled by the mystic arts. Yao Long is a Buddhist, why should we care?"

"Heh heh, Li Rui-zhong! What are you pretending? Li Po-xiao is your ancestor, and you treat him like a grandson? I'm curious, a little kid can use such powerful spells of the universe, and your Li family must be very rich, throwing spell salt and blue talismans around. You must have spent millions already? Look at Xia, using the Ghost Dao once almost killed him, with no blue talismans or spell salt. He's so poor! Even his Senior Hai was hit and spat blood. Li Po-xiao has used the power of the universe so many times, are you fooling ghosts and spirits? Are you addicted to the trick of borrowing a body? If you don't believe me, I'll report you to the authorities and make you pay!"

Hearing Yao Long's words, my face turned white, and I was embarrassed. Indeed, I was so poor...

Li Po-xiao might be a powerful old monster who had possessed Zhang Yi-dan and hidden in the Li family. Otherwise, how could he be so powerful, throwing spells worth millions and bleeding like it was nothing? Fighting him would be suicide!

Can I fight him? No way!
