My Uncle Master is truly something else.
First, the sect leader of Dragon Tiger Mountain got nicknamed "Old Peach Blossom."
Now, Master Yunlong Yunhu, Ju Cheng, gets to be called "Doggy Leftover."
I felt like laughing, but with Yunlong and Yunhu present, I forced myself to hold it in.
Seeing Yunlong and Yunhu look at him in surprise, my Uncle Master smiled faintly.
"I know them. It was thirty years ago.
That kid still owes me and Old Mo.
No, Gu Hui a meal!"
Upon hearing this, Yunlong and Yunhu exclaimed in surprise, "Senior, are you really a friend of our master?"
"Nonsense. If a senior can guess our master's name from us, he must be our master's friend.
But Senior, how did you guess?
We don't recall introducing ourselves, do we?" Yunlong asked.
My Uncle Master chuckled.
"Didn't you just mention White Ox Mountain?
And I see you have some understanding of Qimen Dunjia.
So I took a guess, and it turned out to be right."
As my Uncle Master spoke, he took another sip of wine to moisten his throat.
Just then, a gust of chilling wind suddenly swept in.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh," it blew towards us.
The faint mist that permeated the surroundings suddenly thickened under this gust of wind.
We had all activated our heavenly eyes while traveling.
As the chilling wind approached, we immediately realized it was a surge of Yin energy.
"There's something foul!" Xu Han Chi exclaimed, drawing his peach wood sword.
Luo Fei and Xia Qiuxi, standing beside him, no longer paid attention to my Uncle Master and Yunlong Yunhu. They too drew their swords, ready to fight.
Looking in the direction the chilling wind came from, Old Mo and I turned our heads and slightly closed our eyes.
Before coming, we heard that the Misty Forest was guarded by Yin spirits and demonic souls.
Had we encountered them so soon after entering?
"Woah, smells good, so good, it's a living person..."
Suddenly, from the depths of the mist, hoarse voices arose.
Only those with heavenly eyes could hear the voices.
If an ordinary person had wandered in, they would have been completely unaware.
Then, we heard rustling sounds, as if something was approaching.
Soon, faintly, we could see two dark figures leaping back and forth between the tree trunks in the mist.
"They must be Misty Yin spirits. They're very fierce. One of my senior brothers died at the hands of a Misty Yin spirit.
Everyone, be careful!" Guan Xin warned, with a hint of fear in her voice.
As the guide, she was the most knowledgeable about the Misty Forest among us.
"When soldiers come, block them; when water comes, dam it. Little Qin, Little Mo, lead the way forward." My Uncle Master commanded.
Old Mo and I exchanged glances and immediately responded, "Yes!"
With that, we two prepared to move forward.
However, Yunlong and Yunhu suddenly blocked our path.
"Leave the task of clearing the way to us brothers!"
"That's right, we were previously held back by diarrhea and hindered everyone.
Now is our time to shine, my brother and I."
As they finished speaking, they both reached into their satchels and produced two peculiar magical artifacts.
One resembled a circular disc with many sharp spikes around its outer edge.
The other was a double-moon design, with four sharp crescent blades.
They were colored and inscribed with many unfamiliar runes.
Younger generations like Old Mo and I didn't recognize them at all.
What were these artifacts? We had never seen them before.
But when my Uncle Master and Aunt Master Yunxia saw them, their expressions shifted.
Aunt Master Yunxia exclaimed, "Sun and Moon Twin Wheels?"
Upon hearing this, Yunlong and Yunhu smiled faintly.
Yunlong spoke, "Senior Yunxia has sharp eyes.
I wield the Sun Wheel, to illuminate evil spirits."
"I wield the Moon Wheel, to slay all evil.
When Sun and Moon unite, the world will be purified."
As their words fell, they simultaneously raised the artifacts in their hands.
And the two Yin spirits in the mist had also revealed themselves.
With two "swishes," they leaped out of the mist.
Upon closer inspection, they were two shadowy fiends resembling evil infants.
One clung to a tree trunk, its pitch-black eyes wide open, peeking out.
It opened its maw, filled with serrated teeth, and stuck out a long red tongue, emitting a "sizzle, sizzle" eerie chuckle.
Drops of saliva continuously dripped down, turning into black smoke and disappearing upon contact with the ground and trees.
The other was sprawled on the ground nearby, emitting waves of Yin energy, surrounded by black smoke.
It stared at us with a ferocious, hungry gaze, vociferating in a hoarse, torn voice,
"Eat, tasty living person..."
Seeing these two Yin spirit fiends, we all showed a hint of solemnity.
But Yunlong and Yunhu, standing guard in front, exchanged a glance.
"Insignificant fiends, how dare you be so presumptuous."
With a "boom," they both charged forward.
Their speed was astonishing as they darted straight towards the two spirits.
The two fiends, upon seeing Yunlong and Yunhu, let out a roar,
"Eat!"
Before their voices faded, they pounced fiercely towards Yunlong and Yunhu.
But Yunlong and Yunhu did not retreat an inch.
Then, they grunted, "Sun Wheel ascends!"
"Moon Wheel sinks and floats!"
As their words were spoken, the artifacts in their hands suddenly began to spin.
Spinning at an incredible speed, emitting a "whirring" sound.
Due to their extreme rotation, the artifacts projected phantom images of the sun and moon.
Along with bursts of powerful gale-force winds.
These artifacts were truly distinctive, no wonder they were called the Sun and Moon Twin Wheels.
As the Sun and Moon Twin Wheels projected their phantom images, Yunlong and Yunhu flung their hands.
The artifacts in their hands "whooshed" and flew out, directly towards the two Yin spirit fiends.
They resembled shuriken from an anime.
The two evil spirits, seeing the Sun and Moon Wheels flying towards them, made strange, flickering arcs in mid-air, transforming into shadowy mist-like phantoms and evading them.
"What the heck, they dodged it!"
"Be careful!"
"..."
Everyone was startled and shouted warnings.
But Yunlong and Yunhu smiled.
With a sudden pull of their hands, the flying Sun and Moon Twin Wheels "whooshed" back.
Only then did we see that beneath the flying Sun and Moon Twin Wheels, there was an almost invisible, hair-thin steel wire connecting them.
The retracted Sun and Moon Twin Wheels moved with such speed.
Before the two Yin spirits could even react, with two "bangs," they were sliced in half from behind by the Sun and Moon Twin Wheels.
They didn't even have time to cry out, their souls exploding directly.
Turning into a wisp of black smoke, they vanished into thin air...
