981 Battling with the Old Daoist

"It's you?" Qiao Mu sneered at the cyan-clothed old Daoist.

In reality, even though this Daoist priest looked to only be in his forties, he gave people a hoary impression.

Qiao Mu was very aware that this Daoist priest's actual age definitely wasn't as young as he looked like at the moment.

Perhaps, he was almost a hundred years old.

In addition, after having previously exchanged blows with this person in the royal palace, she was very clear about his strength.

Yet she didn't expect that this darn Daoist priest, whom they couldn't find after searching through the entire city, would actually appear inside Qiaotou Village.

Although Qiao Mu was puzzled, she reacted extremely rapidly. Before that old Daoist could retreat, she closed in with her ferule that was coursing with an ink-colored glow and struck it directly at his neck.

A streak of fire then abruptly shot towards the old Daoist.

Qingluan also drew his sword, leaving an icy gust in his wake as he thrust it at the old Daoist, but he was blocked midway by a hawk-faced ferocious beast.

The hawk-faced beast was very grotesque, and it bore two pairs of innately asymmetric wings. The shorter pair, like deformed wings that hadn't fully developed, folded up before the chest, exceedingly ugly.

Qingluan didn't even bat an eyelid when he saw this hawk-faced ferocious beast, directly attacking it with several ice slashes.

Simultaneously, the Startled Swan Dagger that was hovering in mid-air flashed as it abruptly released a dazzling light.

Before it, four sealed transparent barriers suddenly emerged in the originally empty and shattered stone forest.

The little monk hastily rushed forward and slapped four to five seal contracts around the barriers. Subsequently, he turned around and blasted out a flame attack with his fist as he cutely cried out, "Benefactress, hurry inside!"

In order to dodge that flame attack, the old Daoist twisted his body slightly to let it pass.

Qiao Mu took this opportunity to rapidly rush toward the transparent barriers.

Yet how would the old Dao allow her to escape? A raven-black huge claw shot out of his chest, grabbing straight for Qiao Mu's shoulder.

Slap! In a moment of desperation, Qiao Mu pulled out a green vine and whipped the huge claw with it.

The old Daoist was momentarily caught off guard, so he took the hit. The claw shrunk back in pain, and Qiao Mu seized this chance to dart straight for the transparent barriers.

"Where are you running!" The old Daoist hollered, and then he laughed coldly, "This old man really underestimated you little lass! You have quite a lot of secrets on you. You can draw advanced-level summoning talismans, and also possess wood spiritual energy? Ha ha. Watch this old man catch you…"

Boom!!

The entire mountain ferociously quaked three times from a terrifying tremor.

This huge tremor had also shaken the prattling d*mn old Daoist into retreating several steps backwards before he spurted out a mouthful of blood.

"You darn lass!" The old Daoist hollered. Just wait until he caught this crafty d*mn lass. He was definitely going to dismember her corpse so as to vent the hatred in his heart!/

It was Qiao Mu who had precisely tossed out the Core Ravaging Thunder that Duan Yue had given her, being enough to give the old geezer a painful trouncing.

What better time than now when he was swiftly retreating to avoid the quaking!

Qiao Mu immediately slipped inside the transparent barriers.

Qingluan also cleanly broke free of his entanglement with the hawk-faced ferocious beast before charging inside the transparent barriers after Qiao Mu.

The little monk promptly formed several Buddhist hand seals to seal the pathway immediately, and the trio's figures instantly vanished inside.

The old Dao wiped away the blood at the corner of his mouth before ferociously turning around. As he helplessly watched the trio flee like rabbits, he was instantly overwhelmed with such hatred that he roared at the sky, "Qiao Mu!"

This d*mn lass, let him see where she was able to flee to!

He didn't expect that letting the d*mn lass off would allow her to grow up to this extent. It was simply abominable.
