Xiao Mei rushed out directly.
Neither Lao Mo nor I had time to react.
By the time we came to our senses, Xiao Mei had already run more than ten meters.
"Xiao Mei!"
I shouted loudly.
Xia Qiu Xi, who was confronting the weasel, also noticed Xiao Mei.
Thinking Xiao Mei was going to attack her, she instantly shifted aside, defensively wary.
But Xiao Mei paid no attention to her.
She leaped up, let out a fox roar at the weasel.
"Awoo!"
The sound was sharp, not deep.
As she leaped into the air, her hands transformed into fox claws, striking directly at the old weasel.
The old weasel also noticed the little fox.
Its expression turned startled, and its demonic energy surged, enveloping it.
In an instant, the old weasel transformed into the appearance of a plump, elderly human woman, holding a black crutch in her hand.
With two "bang" sounds, the green demonic energy was repelled.
Xiao Mei was also sent flying back several meters.
At this moment, Huang Qi Niang looked at Xiao Mei before her.
She said with some surprise,
"There are still children of the Hu family here.
But you are not enough!"
Huang Qi Niang spoke coldly, her demonic energy surging again.
She lunged forward.
With two "swish" sounds of her claws.
Xiao Mei could only defend passively, forced to retreat repeatedly.
I watched, realizing Xiao Mei was no match for the opponent, and quickly shouted,
"Lao Mo, go!"
I watched, and quickly called out.
And at the first opportunity, I charged forward to help.
My vital energy circulated throughout my body, my cultivation at full power.
Eight streams of vital energy flowed within me, bringing me to my strongest state.
Xiao Mei was holding up her claws, fending off attacks.
But after a few more moves, Lao Mo and I arrived from the sides.
"Xiao Mei, we're here to help you!"
"A glint of cold light arrives first, then your old life."
Lao Mo and I spoke in unison.
Although we had no magical artifacts in hand.
We held a talisman and slapped it towards Huang Qi Niang.
The talismans continuously exploded with "boom boom" sounds, echoing across the abandoned construction site.
On the other side, Xia Qiu Xi had been doubting the authenticity of our identities.
But seeing us now, she clearly relaxed her guard.
She glanced at the demon, who was pinned by the talisman beside her, and thrust her sword forward.
"Ah!"
The weasel demon cried out in pain as its chest was pierced.
"Mother, Mother save me!"
The weasel demon cried out in agony for help.
Huang Qi Niang, who was fighting us, heard this.
Her face changed drastically, revealing a look of fury:
"My cub!"
As she spoke, her demonic energy billowed.
She roared "awoo awoo" and each strike of her staff carried immense force.
Without magical artifacts, we couldn't contend with her directly.
We were immediately swept aside, and Xiao Mei couldn't block either.
She could only watch as Huang Qi Niang rushed towards Xia Qiu Xi and the demon.
But I still reminded her:
"Fellow Daoist, be careful!"
Xia Qiu Xi also saw Huang Qi Niang charging towards her.
Hearing my reminder now, how could she dare to be careless in the slightest?
She drew her peach wood sword and met Huang Qi Niang head-on.
"You hurt my cub, and I will make you wish you were never born."
Huang Qi Niang roared, her demonic energy continuously surging outwards.
The oppressive aura made all of us feel uncomfortable.
Her cultivation must have reached the Soul Palace realm.
Although Xia Qiu Xi was powerful, her cultivation had not yet reached the Soul Palace realm.
I initially thought she would be at a disadvantage facing Huang Qi Niang alone.
But who knew that when she fought the old demon.
She was not at all inferior, her peach wood sword moving with incredible speed.
Her footwork was also exceptionally agile, and her swordsmanship was sharp and fierce.
"Swoosh swoosh swoosh" the sword's edge cut through the air, forcing Huang Qi Niang to repeatedly dodge back.
"Holy cow, this woman is so strong!"
Lao Mo exclaimed.
Despite her lower cultivation than the old weasel, she was suppressing the opponent with her exquisite swordsmanship.
"Stop watching, attack together, let's surround and kill this old monster!"
I said.
Since we had encountered it, we had to eliminate this old monster.
The three of us surrounded it directly.
Four against one, it should not be a problem to take it down.
Xia Qiu Xi saw us closing in and, after swinging her sword, said to me,
"You really aren't with them!"
I was speechless. If I were with them, why would I be helping you?
"Of course not."
After saying that, I raised my fist and punched a few times.
But Huang Qi Niang dodged them all.
A counter-attack with a talisman was also dodged by her.
However, with two fists against four hands, and Huang Qi Niang's eagerness to save the demon that Xia Qiu Xi had injured.
In the ensuing chaos, Lao Mo seized an opening.
He landed a punch on Huang Qi Niang's face.
With a scream of "Ah," Huang Qi Niang was knocked off balance.
Seeing this, Xiao Mei let out several "ying ying" fox cries and slashed down with a claw, leaving three bloody gashes on Huang Qi Niang's chest.
As Xia Qiu Xi and I moved forward to deliver the finishing blow,
The dying weasel weakly shouted,
"Mother, save, save me..."
As it spoke, blood began to spill from its mouth.
Huang Qi Niang looked at it, extremely anxious.
Seeing us pressing closer and herself injured, she lowered her face.
She spoke fiercely,
"You, are unforgivable!"
With that, Huang Qi Niang suddenly roared.
"Awoo!"
The sound was long and piercing, and her demonic energy suddenly surged several times with this roar.
With a "buzz" of vibration.
A gust of demonic wind condensed and radiated outwards.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh" sand and stones flew, as if a typhoon had appeared.
The first to bear the brunt were Xia Qiu Xi and I.
Under this ripple of demonic energy, it felt like being hit by a truck.
With two "bang" sounds, we were thrown to the ground.
Lao Mo and Xiao Mei were also forced to retreat by this demonic wind.
Meanwhile, Huang Qi Niang, who released the demonic wind, began to undergo a bizarre transformation.
Her entire body began to animalize.
Her human face morphed into the head of a weasel, her fur bristled, her eyes became bloodshot, and her fangs grew.
Even her stature increased by half a meter.
In an instant, she transformed into a weasel monster with a human-like beast body...
