The power of the Five - Thunder Talisman was enough to shatter the three souls and seven spirits of a celestial being, let alone me, an ordinary person.
Even shattering one soul could turn a person into an idiot.
Just as the talisman was approaching, I instinctively dodged to the side.
I slipped on my feet, my knee hit the parapet, and my body tilted backward. I fell directly from the building.
"Ah..." I flailed my hands wildly. Looking up, I saw a big hand reaching out to grab me.
Still in shock, he lifted me up with a powerful pull.
But that Five - Thunder Talisman landed heavily on his back.
"Pfft." He spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, which landed right on my clothes.
I quickly stepped forward to support him so that he wouldn't fall to the ground.
"Jixiang, weren't you supposed to run away? Why did you come back?"
Jixiang let out a chuckle, still wearing that mischievous look on his face. "I originally planned to lead him away, but they didn't take the bait."
"Cough, cough, cough." He coughed twice.
"I'm still alive. I'll fight him later. You take the opportunity to escape." Jixiang tried to stand up.
"No, you'll die like this. Waaah..." I grabbed Jixiang. I definitely couldn't let him get hurt anymore.
"Little Brother Ma, are you worried about me?" He still had the mood to joke at this moment.
"Let's die together!" The evil Taoist priest was already blood - crazy.
Another Five - Thunder Talisman was thrown at us.
By now, Jixiang had fainted. I used my shoulder to protect Jixiang and was ready to take the blow of the talisman.
"Crash, boom!" Two thunderclaps sounded. It was as if a bolt of lightning had struck from the sky. Sparks flew on the rooftop.
I quickly turned around and saw that the two villains were covered in ash, with their hair sticking up like an afro, and black smoke coming out of their mouths.
A flash of golden light, followed by two loud "bangs"! They were slapped against the wall, their bodies slowly sliding down and falling to the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust.
Standing in front of me was actually Long Lin. Today, he wasn't wearing a long robe but casual clothes, and his hair was neatly cut short, making him look clean and refreshing.
Long Lin frowned slightly and mumbled, "Damn it, he beat me to it again."
Seeing him, I was both happy and disappointed. I was happy because I was saved, but disappointed because it wasn't Gu Yuan.
"You ugly toad, how dare you hurt my little lady. You're asking for death!" Long Lin strode towards me. When he passed by the two villains, he didn't forget to kick the evil Taoist priest.
Seeing that things were going badly, Wei Liang was about to turn around and run away. But with just a glance from Long Lin, he was frozen in place.
This Long Lin's magical power was unfathomable, no less than Gu Yuan's.
"Little lady, you've been frightened." He stepped forward to support me. I tightened my grip on Jixiang's shoulder and didn't want him to get closer.
"Do you want to save him?" Long Lin's voice was always gentle.
Hearing this, I thought he might have a way.
"Can you save him?" My eyes were full of tears, and my gaze was pleading.
"Of course I can. It's just a matter of your word."
"Please, can you save him?" My voice trembled throughout.
"Then how about we make a deal? I'll save him, and you promise to do one thing for me." Long Lin smiled, his eyes full of expectation.
I sat on the ground and hesitated for a moment. Jixiang was in this state because of me. If I couldn't save him, I would never be able to forgive myself.
"As long as it's not asking me to marry you, I'll agree to anything."
"Ouch, you guessed it right away." Long Lin looked a bit regretful.
"So, will you save him or not?" I was getting impatient, and my tone was a bit accusing.
I wasn't targeting Long Lin. I was just afraid that if we didn't save Jixiang soon, he might really die.
"Save, save, save. Since you've asked, how could I not save him!"
Saying that, Long Lin raised his hand and gently tapped on Jixiang's forehead. A golden light was seen pouring into Jixiang's body.
"Okay, wait a while. He'll wake up soon." Long Lin reached out his hand to help me up.
I looked down at Jixiang again. His complexion seemed to be really improving, so I took Long Lin's hand and stood up.
Long Lin was very polite. He supported me and led me to sit on the bench on the rooftop.
Seeing that I was covered in blood, he just ran his hand over the collar of my clothes, and the bloodstains disappeared.
"Ouch, my brother." And He Bi. How could I forget about him?
"Don't worry. He's okay." Long Lin didn't let go of my hand. He didn't seem to be lying.
"You're injured. Do you need me to heal you?"
Speaking of healing, I suddenly remembered the awkward situation when Gu Yuan healed me, so I immediately refused.
"No, thank you." I pulled my hand out of his and sat properly beside him.
Long Lin flipped his hands around and said, "Tsk, tsk. Why can't I hold it?"
I didn't understand what he meant, and I didn't want to know either.
Because I was still worried about Jixiang, my gaze stayed on him all the time, hoping that he would wake up soon.
While we were still worried, the evil Taoist priest got up groggily from the ground.
He scrambled and ran down from the rooftop.
"Aren't you going to chase him?" I asked hurriedly.
"Why should I chase him? I don't like him either." Long Lin curled his lips slightly, and his gaze stayed on my face.
His look made me feel creepy.
"I'm not as stupid as Gu Yuan. If I chase him, what if you're in danger again?"
He thought quite carefully, and I couldn't refute him.
"This boy was forcibly possessed by them. That toad is so vicious. Heaven will punish him."
Long Lin just took one look at Wei Fan and could tell that his soul and body didn't match.
He must be an extraordinary person.
"Can you help them switch back?"
"Are you begging me?" Long Lin looked at me affectionately, his eyes shining like stars.
"No... You've helped me enough. I'll just find Gu Yuan."
"Haha, you mean Gu Yuan? He's in trouble himself. How can he help you?"
In trouble? What did he mean by that?
"What's wrong with Gu Yuan?" I immediately got anxious and asked worriedly.
"Look at you. As soon as I mention him, you get so nervous." Long Lin looked unhappy, as if he was jealous.
"No, he's my celestial being. It's natural for me to be worried about him."
I admitted that I was being insincere, but it was better to be cautious when facing this mysterious person.
"Today is the fifteenth. He might still be in the arms of a beauty." Long Lin said lazily, with his hands resting on the back of the bench.
After he said this, the first woman that came to my mind was Man Yue.
"Do you know Man Yue?"
"No." Long Lin answered quickly without any hesitation.
I wasn't curious either. I just said "oh" and then fell silent.
Long Lin also didn't say a word. He just leaned back on the bench and stared at me quietly.
We sat there in silence until midnight. Long Lin gently hooked his finger, and Wei Fan's soul floated out of my pocket.
Seeing Wei Fan, I said in surprise, "Senior Brother, are you okay?"
Wei Fan's body was very weak, and he was completely unconscious.
"If we don't save him soon, his soul will really dissipate." Long Lin stood up.
He formed a seal with his palm and slapped it on the back of Wei Liang's head. Wei Liang's soul was slapped out.
Then he waved his hand gently, and Wei Fan's soul returned to his own body.
After Wei Fan's soul returned to his body, Wei Liang was scared out of his wits and just stood there, not knowing what to do.
"Wei Liang, do you admit your guilt?"
Wei Liang slumped to the ground, completely desperate.
After Wei Fan's body recovered, the two of them told us what had happened.
