Damn it! Let's smash the darkness together!-Chapter 1299 - 160: Retiring After Success

"?" Xie Xiaochan’s pretty face froze for a moment, then she cursed and started running.

But after two steps, she hurried back and yanked Xu Shu up: "Come on, what are you standing there for, run!"

Though she looked petite, she was incredibly strong, pulling the ’Dragon Elephant’ as she sprinted like a light-winged swallow.

"Run from what?" Xu Shu asked in confusion.

"Idiot, we’re not on the same team!" Xie Xiaochan scolded angrily, quickly explaining, "This is the Taoist Yin Five Thunders, a Demigod technique that locks onto targets automatically! Lu Bingwei can’t control it since she’s using it beyond her level!"

"Oh, right! Damn it," Xu Shu realized suddenly, then cursed loudly.

After teaming up to explore several times, he almost forgot that he and the bride were on one team, while Lu Bingwei was with Yan Huoxing and Ali on another.

So, they had nothing to fear from the lightning because Lie Zhenzi was protecting them, and Lu Bingwei’s thunder couldn’t harm them at all.

But not for him and Xie Xiaochan.

There was no "teammate damage immunity"!

Besides, he had been struck dead by the other side’s Demigod level "one-time talisman" before.

This time Lu Bingwei was using Yin Five Thunders, which, although not as powerful as a Demigod Talisman, still had formidable destructive power!

"Damn Yin God little love, daring to stir up trouble! If it weren’t for so many people watching, I’d freaking unleash a storm in the supermarket on you!"

"Lu Bingwei is such an idiot too, can’t lock onto people, why are you unleashing your big move? People say big boobs, no brains, but I didn’t think small boobs would be brainless too!" Xu Shu internally complained, hurriedly using both his hands and feet to keep up with Xie Xiaochan’s pace.

Chasing right behind them was Qi Lixiang.

And behind Qi Lixiang came the crackling "fully automatic thundercloud".

Now it was just great, the two humans and one ghost were running for their lives in the vast arena.

The surrounding cheers grew louder and louder, and at the highest point of the dome, some light clusters seemed to form a barely noticeable smiley face.

Fortunately, the curse power was limited.

After a half-moment of desperate running, Lu Bingwei’s Yin Five Thunders spell finally exhausted, and the thunderclouds slowly dissipated.

By this time, the entire arena had almost been turned upside down, riddled with terrifying blackened craters.

Xie Xiaochan rolled her eyes, panting heavily, grateful to have narrowly escaped disaster.

Xu Shu was speechless, never expecting the most dangerous attack in the arena to come not from an enemy, but from a teammate.

However, although the Yin Five Thunders attack was powerful, it still hadn’t been able to take down Qi Lixiang.

Her entire body was charred, with over a third of her torso missing.

But seeing Lu Bingwei, equally pale-faced and slowly descending from under the thunderclouds, Qi Lixiang let out a furious roar, taking advantage of her opponent’s weakness to pounce forward.

With a gaping maw, she spewed forth a torrent of blood, bones, and flesh, forming a crimson flood, threatening to drown Lu Bingwei.

However, Lu Bingwei was not easy prey either. Despite her energy heavily drained from using the Five Thunder Technique, she remained fiercely brave, drawing virtual symbols with her fingers in the air. Blood droplets condensed into a secret pattern, and with a tiptoe that shook the ground three times, eight bronze trigram mirrors inscribed with ancient characters rose up within a ten feet radius.

Under the reflection of the mirrors, Qi Lixiang was ensnared once more, her massive demonic statue’s body started twisting uncontrollably.

But amidst the substantial invasion of black mist, Lu Bingwei sustained considerable damage, occasionally finding opportunities to break free from the mirrors and slam down fiercely.

A "Heavenly Master" versus a "Yin God", once again locked in fierce combat, with no room for outsiders to intervene.

As a "Yin God", Qi Lixiang’s attacks seemed rather unimpressive on the surface.

Yet, within the scene, Xu Shu noticed something more this time.

The most formidable aspect of Qi Lixiang’s attacks was, in fact, the thick black mist lingering around Lu Bingwei.

They seemed inconspicuous, only causing slight interference to Lu Bingwei.

However, Xu Shu, who not long ago captured a "Yin God·Love", observed that this black mist was continuously intensifying and concentrating, filled with resentment, hatred, and other negative emotions.

Don’t be fooled by its low damage now; once enough has accumulated and it bursts, that will be the decisive blow!

"The Curse Technique, constantly deepening through some method... Split Mouth Woman had this move too, it seems the strongest attack of Yin God·Love is precisely the curse?"

"This element of surprise, it’s quite interesting."

"Moreover, the way the curse deepens is quite particular, it somehow seems to spread through broadly defined sexual acts."

"The Split Mouth Woman used it against me like this, and Qi Lixiang against Lu Bingwei like this... Hmm, this should also count as..."

"Is the curse only spread to such so-called ’sexual partners’?"

"So this is the so-called hatred born of love? Truly fitting for Yin God·Love, this is too ironic, no wonder."

Thoughts flowed through Xu Shu’s mind.

Beside him, Xie Xiaochan, after breathing a slight sigh of relief, half-jokingly, half-annoyedly said to Xu Shu, "Hmph, now you understand why the first stage of the Taoist path is called ’orphan’! These guys, especially in the initial training stages, when their cultivation isn’t high, often can’t distinguish between friend and foe, accidentally killing teammates! I’m telling you, our lineage of female Taoists is the true orthodox Taoist way!"

"Ah, yes, yes." Xu Shu nodded, unsure how to respond, deciding to agree with her.

As time ticked by, Lu Bingwei and Qi Lixiang remained locked in an intense battle.

Noticing the curse on Lu Bingwei’s body accumulating wildly, Xu Shu decided to step in.

He shouted, "Stop fighting, you won’t be able to kill each other like this."
