Chapter 196 Mischief

At this moment, Hanba's aura was trembling wildly, wisps of black gas constantly seeping from her body, like a sugar cube dropped into a glass of water, slowly dissolving.

This meant that her physique had collapsed for the most part, like a dam that had developed many cracks and could no longer store the water inside.

The power of the Celestial King's Hand completely exceeded her imagination, as if she were an insect under that palm, repeatedly pouncing on it, only to be bounced back again and again. Perhaps, the only difference was that her vitality was much more tenacious than that of an insect.

But no matter how strong the vitality, no matter how strong the physique, it could not withstand such consumption. If she were in her true prime, even if she couldn't win, she could at least be a little more composed.

Now, her foundation was already weak, and her current strength was like a castle in the air, like a flickering candle, seemingly resilient, but likely to be extinguished at any moment.

The surrounding chaotic battles continued, but the people on the periphery were not as fierce as they had been at the beginning, more like a tacit understanding of perfunctoriness.

They were fighting, but everyone's attention was on the man on the ice, or rather, the ant.

Once Hanba or the Celestial King's Hand faltered first, either being killed or giving up, then the others would immediately take action!

The Celestial King was powerful, but none of those who joined the battle were incompetent.

Especially those old-timers; they knew their own limitations. Don't think that you two are fighting so lively now, but since we've survived to this day, who doesn't know what's really going on behind closed doors?

Did you really think that just slapping on a little paint would make you look like a wealthy landlord?

"Bang!"

Hanba's body was once again struck into the sea by the Celestial King's finger, creating滔滔巨浪 (tāo tāo jù làng - huge waves).

Zhou Ze continued to lie on the ice, his eyes still empty, but this emptiness had a slightly more proactive meaning than at the beginning.

Because there was a hint of contemplation in his eyes.

However, at this moment, showing such empty bewilderment was truly out of place with the surrounding atmosphere.

He was clearly the object that many powerful beings were fighting over, yet he had no such awareness, showing no panic or roaring "My fate is in my own hands," but just dazed and stunned, seemingly really treating himself as a mascot, whoever could get him, got him.

The Celestial King's Hand descended again, his target being Zhou Ze!

However, Hanba flew out of the sea again, landing in front of Zhou Ze.

At this moment, Hanba's hair was disheveled, and her previous girlish appearance had completely disappeared, replaced by a kind of hysterical ferocity.

With Hanba as the center, the surrounding ice began to expand frantically. Even in the depths of winter, this area of the sea would not freeze, but Hanba personally changed this rule.

Right now, she really seemed to have the same aura as Ying Gou ascending to the heavens before.

Flesh, baleful aura, origin,

These things were originally seriously damaged. Even if they were forcibly pulled up by the Phoenix blood, they had already collapsed under the continuous attacks of the Celestial King's Hand.

Therefore,

Hanba was now relying more on her own will to hold on.

In short... she was being reckless.

The Celestial King's Hand descended again, this time in a fist!

In an instant,

Thunder rumbled above the sky, and the firmament seemed to be enveloped by this fist, collapsing together.

When the Celestial King's fist slammed down, viewed from a distance, it seemed as if the sky in this area began to press down frantically.

"Burn!"

Hanba let out a low roar.

The previous千里冰封 (qiān lǐ bīng fēng - thousand-mile ice seal) instantly ignited at this moment. This extreme change seemed to boil the entire sea. Violent flames condensed into fire dragons, frantically rushing in all directions.

"Boom!"

However, this seemingly magnificent scene was instantly shattered in front of the Celestial King's fist.

The Celestial King's fist, with overwhelming force, caused all the approaching fire dragons to be annihilated in an instant.

However,

Hanba turned around at this moment, grabbing Zhou Ze, who was still lying on the ice in a daze, with one hand. The sea of fire in front of them immediately split into a path, and Hanba grabbed Zhou Ze and rushed out.

This was,

Escaping!

Suddenly,

More than a dozen streams of light came from all directions. They may have been entangled or fighting in chaos before, but their attention had never left the ice for a moment.

Hanba was clearly trying to escape. Not to mention the Celestial King's Hand, no one else would allow her to leave with everyone's prey.

"Roar!"

An old dragon swept out of the sea, blocking Hanba's path.

"Get out!"

Hanba stretched out her hand and grabbed fiercely in front of her.

Five terrifying wounds were immediately torn out of the dragon's body, but it did not retreat. Instead, like a snake, it instantly curled up its body, forming a wall of flesh, locking off the path forward.

Hanba did not hesitate, grabbing Zhou Ze and turning upwards. However, there was a ghost and a cyan paper fan descending vertically from above.

After the three sides collided,

The ghost and the paper fan's spirit were bounced away, and Hanba's momentum was successfully blocked.

After two setbacks, the opportunity to leave that Hanba had created earlier had been almost completely locked down.

More and more people were flying towards this side, participating in the blockade.

Hanba's cold gaze swept around,

Finally,

It landed on Zhou Ze.

Zhou Ze seemed to be a little dizzy from being carried back and forth up and down by Hanba. His mouth was open, as if he was about to vomit.

Hanba frowned slightly. Although she looked down on Zhou Ze, who had lost Ying Gou's support, because he was just a dog. After the master was gone, this dog could no longer jump around.

But in any case, as Ying Gou's dog, and based on Hanba's earlier understanding of Zhou Ze, she didn't think Zhou Ze was such a fragile person.

Ying Gou failed to ascend to the heavens, and would rather let himself die early than protect him. Was he letting you muddle through here and wait for death?

"Where is that Mount Tai? Why doesn't he come to save you?"

Hanba asked sharply.

The turmoil in Sanya, plus the intense turmoil in Hell the day before yesterday, the sudden return of the Last Era Yama King, falling to Mount Tai, this matter was already public, and Hanba naturally knew it.

And she had met that Yama King when she was walking in the rain before.

Although she had said that he was dead, even if it was a dead Yama King, it would be unrealistic to fight the Celestial King head-on, but at least he could try to help get Zhou Ze out.

Zhou Ze heard Hanba's question, and his mind was even more浆糊 (jiāng hú - a mess). To be honest, he now had the feeling that he had a severe fever and his brain was about to burn out, and he was in a daze.

Hanba's gaze sharpened, and at this moment, the pursuers around them approached again.

The Celestial King's Hand, which had missed with its previous punch and been shaken off by Hanba's feint, came again at this moment. Its five fingers spread out, and the huge palm had already propped up a piece of the sky above.

Each of the five fingertips had lightning falling down.

Without any warning, this terrifying thunder fell down like this. Both Hanba and the people who were blocking Hanba suffered the same treatment.

Hanba supported herself with one hand, using her own zombie baleful aura to resist the rolling thunder. As for the others around her, naturally, they didn't have this kind of confidence. You had to know that the lightning emanating from the Celestial King's fingertips was heavenly thunder, a heavenly punishment that the Celestial King guided this world to carry out with his own power!

They were all people who had苟命 (gǒu mìng - eked out a living). They were extremely taboo about this kind of heavenly punishment itself. At the moment, everyone had no choice but to retreat and leave this area of heavenly punishment first.

Streaks of lightning bombarded Hanba's zombie baleful aura. Every time she suffered a lightning strike, Hanba's figure would appear more illusory.

It could be said that the current situation was already quite critical.

Hanba opened her mouth, and two zombie fangs were revealed.

"What I want, since ancient times, I have never failed to get!"

Hanba directly bit down on Zhou Ze's neck. This feeling was like a kidnapper being surrounded and choosing to tear up the hostage in desperation.

However, just as Hanba's fangs were about to shatter Zhou Ze, she suddenly stopped.

Zhou Ze was the clothes she had prepared. She had to wear them when her father's sword came to split her. In other words, it had to be on that day, when the Xuanyuan Sword was in the sky, that she would put Zhou Ze on, either melting him into a weapon spirit or simply skinning him alive and wearing him to have a real effect.

Now, her killing Zhou Ze only had the value of venting her anger.

In Hanba's mind, the scene of Ying Gou fighting against the Xuanyuan Sword when he ascended to the heavens but actively arranging a way out for Zhou Ze to let him live appeared again.

He,

Wanted him to live...

"Ahhhhhhhhhh!!!!!"

Hanba let out a sharp roar,

And then slammed Zhou Ze into the sea beneath her.

"Splash!"

Boss Zhou was sunk into the sea.

Hanba rose up,

Spreading her arms,

Actively facing the thunder and rushing up again, but this time, she had more of a determination!

The half-faced man who was sitting on the shore watching the show shook his head subconsciously after seeing this scene:

"Women, once they get involved in love, their IQs are beyond saving."

However, the Celestial King's Hand above directly disappeared at this moment.

It seemed that even this hand was too lazy to continue fighting with Hanba,

The next moment,

This giant palm appeared on the sea, and Hanba above pounced on it in vain.

She subconsciously lowered her head and looked down.

She saw that huge hand slowly emerging from the sea.

In its minuscule fingertips,

Zhou Ze was bound there, hanging his head, as if he had lost consciousness.

At this time,

An old man with a ghost-like figure suddenly appeared beside Zhou Ze, looking like he was planning to play the praying mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind.

"Buzz!"

The fingertip trembled,

The old man who wanted to fish in troubled waters directly collapsed into a cloud of blood mist, and his soul was instantly strangled.

The people around who were still continuing to蠢蠢欲动 (chǔn chǔn yù dòng - itching to make trouble) had to suppress their impulses after seeing this scene.

It was not until this moment that they realized a cruel reality. They were not Hanba after all. Although none of them were opponents of the Celestial King's Hand, Hanba could withstand it again and again with her physique as the ancestor of zombies, but they could not.

Above, Hanba's arms drooped, the sea breeze blew through her hair. After the last metaqi that she had condensed was struck in vain, Hanba knew that she was already powerless.

Her current state was really not much different from the half-faced man who was watching the show on the shore.

However, because Zhou Ze was no longer on her body, no one around was attacking her anymore.

The Celestial King's Hand grabbed Zhou Ze, not in a hurry to crush him, but slowly raised him up. Behind this hand, there was a non-existent face, staring at Zhou Ze with a happy smile.

Previously,

When Ying Gou ascended to the heavens, in order to avoid his appearance causing the Xuanyuan Sword to shift its target, the Celestial King was not in a hurry to come down, and therefore missed the opportunity to personally take revenge.

Now,

Although there was regret,

But since this ant in front of him was the one that Ying Gou had to specifically protect before he fell, obviously, this ant was very important to Ying Gou.

Since that was the case...

Suddenly,

Zhou Ze, who was imprisoned by the Celestial King, slowly raised his head at this moment,

In his eyes,

It was no longer the previous confusion, nor the panic of being bound and having his life controlled by others,

He was very calm,

At the same time,

He opened his mouth and said:

"Heh... playing tricks again."
