Dao of the Bizarre Immortal
Chapter Summary
When he recalled how the man with the doll head gave him this mission, he became even more suspicious. Meanwhile, without Li Huowang controlling them, the Wandering Gods stopped mid-air and floated like jellyfish without any movements. Just when Blind Chen wanted to point the mirror toward the remaining Wandering Gods, he sensed an incredible killing intent suddenly appear above him.
Chapter 289 - Blind Chen Li Huowang’s words got stuck in his throat when he heard what Blind Chen was shouting.
What?
He thinks that I am from the Sitting Oblivion Dao?
Did he never call for reinforcement?
Li Huowang thought about many things.
When he recalled how the man with the doll head gave him this mission, he became even more suspicious.
Meanwhile, without Li Huowang controlling them, the Wandering Gods stopped mid-air and floated like jellyfish without any movements.
No!
Li Huowang snarled and shook the bell even harder.
In response, the Wandering Gods immediately continued their assault on Blind Chen.
I need proof!
I cannot allow myself to fall into their trap!
Even though Blind Chen couldn’t see, he knew where the Wandering Gods were.
He dodged their attacks, took out the Bagua mirror from his bamboo basket and started chanting, “Pure Heaven and Earth, muddled Yin and clear Yang!
” As he chanted, a soft light shot out from the Bagua mirror.
It swept through the air and the Wandering Gods hit by it all disappeared.
Then, he swung the mirror and two more Wandering Gods were cut in half.
Just when Blind Chen wanted to point the mirror toward the remaining Wandering Gods, he sensed an incredible killing intent suddenly appear above him.
By this time, Li Huowang was already halfway to the ground, his sword just a few inches away from Blind Chen’s neck.
But then, something magical happened.
Blind Chen’s head shrunk into his shirt like a tortoise!
This sudden development caused Li Huowang to miss his attacks and before he could do anything else, a hand appeared from the collar and caught hold of his sword hand.
Li Huowang tried to shake it off, but failed; Blind Chen held onto him very tightly, nearly making Li Huowang fall.
Blind Chen used this opportunity to try and stab Li Huowang with his cane.
But with the remaining Wandering Gods coming to Li Huowang’s aid, his attacks didn’t work.
Both of them were attacking each other fiercely and the situation was dire.
But this stalemate was destined to not last very long; Li Huowang had already set a trap.
“Senior Li, we are here to help you!
” Bai Lingmiao, Gao Zhijian, Chun Xiaoman, and Puppy ran from afar and attacked Blind Chen.
Blind Chen couldn’t even defeat Li Huowang, much less four other people.
With this, his fate had been sealed.
Splat!
A needle wrapped in a white fiber hit Blind Chen’s right hand, causing his five fingers to melt like a candle before shifting toward his wrist.
Blind Chen panicked when he couldn’t hold his weapon.
In the next moment, a gust of wind filled with bloodlust blew at his face, making his hair stand straight up.
Shit!
His heart dropped.
“Zhijian, don’t kill him!
” shouted Li Huowang.
When Li Huowang’s voice rang out, Blind Chen felt that force bend a little before going toward his wrist instead.
With the sound of bones cracking, Gao Zhijian’s mace crumpled Blind Chen’s wrist.
At the same time, Chun Xiaoman ran over and kicked away Blind Chen’s cane.
Then, she swiftly took the metal chain from Gao Zhijian and started binding Blind Chen.
“Did you see that?
Hehe, he lost to me, Cao Cao!
” chortled Puppy.
Li Huowang ignored Puppy and confronted Blind Chen.
“Are you a dot or a bamboo?
We can finally talk properly now.
” “Ptui!
” A glob of phlegm mixed with blood flew toward Li Huowang; however, he easily dodged it.
Gao Zhijian slapped Blind Chen with his massive fist, causing the latter’s nose to break and a few of his teeth got knocked out.
“Don’t be so harsh.
” Li Huowang stopped Gao Zhijian and looked at Blind Chen.
“I will ask again, who are you?
” “I’m your fucking grandfather!
” snarled Blind Chen, his face bloody and red.
After a moment of thought, Li Huowang looked down to his pouch of torture tools and took out a small blade with a thin edge.
“Fine, I will do it myself.
Hold his head and don’t let him shrink into his shirt.
” As the blade slowly shaved off the skin on his face, Blind Chen shrieked and howled in pain.
Li Huowang carefully shaved off the first layer, and then started with the second layer.
He was as focused as a craftsman hard at work.
Time slowly passed and Li Huowang soon realized that something was wrong.
Blind Chen’s face had almost been completely peeled off, and yet, there were no signs of another face beneath it!
“You really aren’t from the Sitting Oblivion Dao?
” asked Li Huowang as he looked incredulously at the weakened Blind Chen.
By now, Blind Chen barely had any breath left in him.
Li Huowang had thought that Blind Chen was someone from the Sitting Oblivion Dao, but now that the proof was in front of him, he knew that he was mistaken.
“Fuck you.
Fuck your grandmother...
” Looking at Blind Chen cursing at him weakly, Li Huowang felt his heart tighten.
He quickly turned toward the red veiled woman beside him and said, “Miaomiao, quick!
Summon the Bai family Immortal and heal him!
” After some time, Li Huowang watched as the shaved off skin on Blind Chen’s face slowly healed and stitched back together.
“Sorry Senior.
Even I can’t be sure without doing this.
Zhijian, untie him,” apologized Li Huowang.
If Blind Chen was not someone from the Sitting Oblivion Dao, then this made the man with the doll head extremely suspicious.
Maybe the entire “mission” was a trap.
When Blind Che, who was heavily injured, regained his freedom, he quickly distanced himself from Li Huowang.
He was terribly weakened as he leaned against the wall and looked toward the direction he heard the footsteps from.
“What are you bastards from the Sitting Oblivion Dao doing?
Do you think I will ever trust you?
Dream on!
” He tried to stand up but his current injuries made it extremely difficult.
“Senior Chen, listen to me,” said Li Huowang, blocking Blind Chen.
“How else can you explain it?
You want to say that it was all a misunderstanding?
You want me to believe that?
Fine!
Go as far away from here as you can and I will believe you!
” shouted Blind Chen.
Just as the two of them were arguing, they suddenly heard a noise coming from the shrine, causing both of them to stop and look toward it at the same time.
There was a person looking at them from behind the door.
It was the clay Bodhisattva.
Half of its body was shrouded in darkness while the other half was exposed in the moonlight.
It was using the two dark holes on its face to stare at them.
“See!
Do you see now?!
They saw how heavily injured I am and now they want to kill me!
Now, we can all just die together!
” Just as Blind Chen’s shout rang out, the Eighteen Arhats appeared from behind the clay Bodhisattva.
Everytime they moved, their bodies cracked a little, and from within those cracks peeked out something that resembled compound eyes, all of them moving within.
