“What damn time is it now…” Doctor Zhao said anxiously. “Is it necessary for me to lie to you here? And is it necessary for me to lie to you with… this kind of reason?”

After hearing this, Yan Zhichun naturally had her own considerations. She turned her head to look into the distance, then called out: “Xiao Xiao.”

“Xiao…?” Doctor Zhao always felt he had some impression of this name.

He had once participated with Qi Xia in an “Earth-Chicken” game called “Weapon Cards.” After leaving, they encountered three “Extreme Path members.” One was called Old Sun, one was called Jiang Ruoxue, and the woman who looked the craziest was called Xiao Xiao.

Sure enough, that familiar figure pushed through the gale winds from within the crowd to come over. She seemed completely unaffected by the gale winds and was even half a head taller than Doctor Zhao.

“I’m here.” Xiao Xiao said. “What is it?”

“In a moment, you’ll be responsible for protecting this man with all your strength as he goes to touch the display screen and giant bell. He has the means to destroy them.” Yan Zhichun said. “At the critical moment, offer up your own life as well.”

“No problem.” Xiao Xiao nodded.

“No… that’s not right…” Doctor Zhao was suddenly startled. “I… I meant I need a woman to accompany me… but Xiao Xiao is too…”

Xiao Xiao clearly didn’t quite understand. She turned her head to look at Doctor Zhao and explained: “I am indeed a woman.”

Now all of Doctor Zhao’s words got stuck in his throat and couldn’t come out. This didn’t seem to be a question of whether she was a woman or a man.

Yan Zhichun continued: “From all aspects, very few people in the entire ‘Extreme Path’ have the ability to protect someone. Xiao Xiao can guarantee your life safety to a great extent.”

“But…” Doctor Zhao didn’t know how to express his needs.

“I’ll go with you too.” Lin Qin said. “This path is too dangerous. If I’m with you, the success rate will be even greater.”

“You…?” Doctor Zhao was startled.

Lin Qin stopped dwelling on it and, together with Xiao Xiao, escorted Doctor Zhao toward the small path beside them.

After all, Baihu was standing at the front. The best method was naturally to circle around from the side.

After sending off the three people, Yan Zhichun came to Baihu’s side and began to sink her faith to activate her “Soul Capture.” Baiyang had once said that even “Heavenly-Level” beings had no way to be immune to Soul Capture. From this perspective… “Divine Beasts” should be about the same.

The problem now was… whose “faith” was stronger, hers or Baihu’s.

She came to the side and, while Baihu was confronting “Expansion,” tried to control Baihu’s movements.

Luo Shiyi at the heights noticed Yan Zhichun’s action route and couldn’t help but frown.

If he remembered correctly, Qian Wu had previously used a similar method trying to use “Twin Flowers” to assimilate Xuanwu, but what was the result…?

Yan Zhichun closed her eyes, trying to place her subconscious into the deepest depths. She already vaguely felt a certain wonderful power connecting herself with Baihu.

But the next second, she uncontrollably raised her hand.

She felt something was strange and quickly opened her eyes, only to discover it was Baihu in the distance who had raised his hand. The huge faith differential caused backlash to Yan Zhichun. Although “Soul Capture” connected the two of them, it was she who had offered up control of her body.

Baihu acted as if he was completely unaware. His hands gripped in the air, and a pile of huge trees actually began growing in the air.

Yan Zhichun also awkwardly raised her hand at this moment, imitating Baihu by clenching her fist.

She quickly severed “Soul Capture,” allowing her body to be liberated, then quickly cried out several warnings to “Expansion.”

That “Expansion” seemed to have been using her ability all along. At this moment, her face had turned completely red from holding her breath. She looked like her mind was no longer very clear.

In the distance, the huge pillar connecting the giant bell and display screen had already bulged high, but “Expansion” was ultimately “Expansion.” Although she had made a metal pillar bulge very high, it was difficult for her to make it break on the spot.

Yan Zhichun knew this was already the best result she could achieve. Ordinary people didn’t understand the internal structure of the display screen, so even if they wanted to make the display screen “expand,” they couldn’t do it. But once the pillar was damaged, the display screen and giant bell would topple to the ground.

After all, this was just a “destruction.” Everyone only needed to use the simplest and most efficient method to accomplish the mission.

Now Baihu had summoned several large trees above “Expansion’s” head, which could fall down at any moment.

Seeing that no matter how she called out to “Expansion,” there was no response, Yan Zhichun knew this person was beyond saving.

She had just prepared to give up when she suddenly thought of something.

Why… would she be beyond saving?

The current “Extreme Path” was no longer fighting alone, but an indestructible team.

Thinking of this, Yan Zhichun closed her eyes, then lifted both feet off the ground as her whole person leaped backward.

“Expansion” in the distance immediately froze. Her “Echo” was interrupted, and she also leaped backward following Yan Zhichun.

Almost at the same instant, several large trees in the sky suddenly fell and inserted themselves into the ground.

“Boom!”

A huge sound rang out. Everyone felt the ground shake.

Several “Extreme Path members” closest fell over one after another due to the ground shattering, while “Expansion” was saved by Yan Zhichun at the critical moment. If it had been half a second later, they would only be able to find shredded flesh now.

Baihu frowned, then once again stirred up a strong wind. He seemed to have also discovered that this abnormally obese girl could truly affect the giant bell and display screen, and immediately had killing intent.

“Foolish… you’re all truly foolish…” Baihu said. “Am I really harming you?”

Before the “Strong Wind” in his hands could blow out, he saw that huge stones had somehow grown on his arms at some unknown time.

Those stones were strung on his arms like candied hawthorn, as if they were originally one with him.

“What truly childish faith…”

Baihu paused, then suddenly swung his hand, as if flinging off soap foam, flinging the huge stones on his hand into fragments.

Countless stone fragments flew out, shooting toward all the “Extreme Path members” before him like bullets.

Everyone was just about to raise their hands to block the stone fragments when they saw barely visible sparks rising from the stone fragments.

Aunt Tong raised her head and saw a stone flashing with sparks flying toward her. Before she could react, a fat figure immediately rushed forward.

“Xiao Chan, be careful!”

“Boom!”

Countless explosion sounds rang out all around. Old Lu stood in front of Aunt Tong, just blocking this explosion that was neither too big nor too small.

“Old… Old Lu!” Aunt Tong immediately widened her eyes and stepped forward to check on Old Lu’s condition.

She saw Old Lu’s arms crossed in front of him, his arms somewhat reddened, but fortunately not injured.

“Good thing… I’m damn well ‘Hardening’…” Old Lu said with lingering fear. “What the hell is this old man…?”

Luo Shiyi watched coldly from the heights below. “Extreme Path” had already been scattered by Baihu’s terrifying destructive power. At this moment, the other two “Divine Beasts” had not yet appeared, making the situation extremely unfavorable.

“‘Strong Wind,’ ‘Luxuriant Wood,’ ‘Explosive Burning.'” Luo Shiyi murmured. “The high and mighty ‘Divine Beasts’ use our tricks.”
