C36 – Were You a Transformer or What

The moment he saw Liu Yuan, Ding Liu widened his eyes in shock. Speak of the devil!

He stared at Liu Yuan in disbelief, “How come you are here?! Have you been following me? No way! It’s impossible! How did you…”

Ding Liu could not figure it out. As Gu Feidao’s subordinate, he was well aware of the affairs in the manor, and he had never been informed that Miss Gu’s teacher was coming here.

Then what was he here for?

And the timing was also tricky — Liu Yuan appeared right after he told Wanniang about him.

As far as Ding Liu was concerned, there was only one possible answer —

Liu Yuan had been planning this for a long time. He had followed him all the way here to track down the traitors of Fallen Jade Mansion.

But little did he know that this was actually just a coincidence.

Even Liu Yuan himself did not expect that he would meet Ding Liu here. He also happened to find out about a hidden plot of the game.

Surprise!

Ding Liu was still calm compared with Wanniang.

The woman had already pulled out her longsword and growled coldly, “Kill him!”

Ding Liu tried to talk some sense into her, “No, wait, he…”

But Wanniang seemed to have made up her mind. She gritted her teeth and said, ” Fallen Jade Mansion must not find out where we are. I won’t allow it!”

The longsword she was holding was dark black, the surface of which appeared dim, and the tip of the sword was flickering with a blue radiance. It was quite extraordinary.

Liu Yuan thought to himself, ‘This woman is probably trying to protect her son.’

As a mother, she had to be vigilant at all times to protect her child from any harm.

Especially when the Fallen Jade Mansion was such a ruthless and powerful organization.

Unfortunately, later on in the game, this woman died while her son grew into a villain.

Liu Yuan tried to show his goodwill, “Wanniang, please, listen to me. I’m…”

Swoosh! Before he could finish his sentence, Wanniang already swung her sword at him, her eyes filled with resolute killing intent.

Liu Yuan sighed.

It seemed that there was no way he could talk sense into her at the moment.

He stretched out two fingers and accurately grabbed the blade of the sword. His profound nascent-infant spiritual energy instantly dominated the sword Qi. After that, he crossed his fingers, and the blade bent in an instant.

Wanniang was shocked at first, but then she immediately formed a seal with her other hand, and blue patterns lit up on the pitch-black sword while a beast-shaped fog started to condense around her and pounced on Liu Yuan.

Meanwhile, the ground in the courtyard suddenly split open, and many huge, bizarre worms rushed out, making hissing sounds. They surrounded Liu Yuan in no time.

“Ding Liu!”

Wanniang shouted again. The longsword in her hand softened and turned into a long snake with blue and black stripes, opening its big mouth and biting into Liu Yuan’s fingers.

Hearing it, Ding Liu gritted his teeth as his eyes turned firm. He must help his friend.

He flipped his black, metal-like palms and formed a few seals. And then his body swelled up and instantly became muscular. Even his clothes burst open.

Bang!

Ding Liu’s fists collided, making a terrifying sound. Within the blink of an eye, this previously fat, short man had turned into a huge, muscular man.

Just like a wild beast, he let out a low roar, the dark muscles on his body shining and his eyes turning golden.

Liu Yuan was dumbfounded at the sight of Ding Liu, his eyes wide open.

What was this man? Some sort of transformer?

What was he going to do?

Ding Liu, on the other hand, was rushing towards Liu Yuan, growling and stomping on the ground, ready to punch him real hard.

Stunned, Liu Yuan tried to escape, and yet he was surrounded by worms.

He was completely caught off guard.

Even cultivators would not be able to make it out alive easily.

Wanniang was probably at the Core Formation Stage, but she seemed weak — she had probably been injured before, just like Ding Liu, when they escaped from the Fallen Jade Mansion.

But when she attacked someone, she never relied on her cultivation base.

Nobody was perfect. However powerful a cultivator was, he must have his weak point. As long as she could find it, she would be able to win the fight.

The young man in front of her was apparently inexperienced. He was actually so careless as to touch her weapon when dealing with someone from Fallen Jade Mansion.

Wanniang gave a cruel sneer. The Ring Snake Sword was deadly poisonous, and there was no cure for it. With one bite, he would soon die in pain.

The snake opened its mouth wide, revealing its sharp, poisonous fangs. In an instant, it was about to bite into Liu Yuan’s hand.

At this moment, surrounded by the beast fog and cornered by Ding Liu, Liu Yuan had absolutely nowhere to escape!

However, one must know that Liu Yuan was no longer his former self, now that he had the strength at the Nascent Infant Stage after he met Pi Huanluo. The former Liu Yuan at the Foundation Establishment Stage might have no choice but to wait for death to come, but now…

Swoosh!

He grabbed the neck of the Snake Ring Sword at lightning speed and snapped it without hesitation.

Clang! The Ring Snake Sword instantly broke into two pieces.

Then, he took a deep breath and activated his Nascent Soul Dharma Incarnation.

The power of Yin and Yang fused in the void behind him, and a huge palm stretched out, blocking Ding Liu’s way towards Liu Yuan.

Bang!

Ding Liu’s punch landed on the palm, only slightly pushing it back by a few inches.

“You have overestimated yourself.”

Liu Yuan stood with his hands behind his back and commented indifferently.

Then the huge palm pressed down on Ding Liu, who had no choice but to fight against it with both his arms up. His face was soon covered in cold sweat. Suddenly, a cracking sound was heard from his knees and he was slapped to the ground.

The huge palm then swept around, crushing the worms on the ground into pieces.

Meanwhile, Liu Yuan had destroyed the beast fog himself.

After everything was done, he took back the Dharma Incarnation.

The courtyard was back to silence.

The battle was over in the blink of an eye.

Liu Yuan pulled out his Flying Star Sword and slowly stepped forward.

Crack.

Wanniang, who had been full of confidence, opened her eyes wide in shock and stared at the sharp longsword on her neck.

Liu Yuan sounded calm, “Can you listen to me now?”
