When Zhang Chu heard that voice, his entire body was stunned.
That old woman who had drilled out of the ground and was like a bronze statue, although her voice was cold and was like two extremes from the kind-heartedness of that old dean within the orphanage, Zhang Chu was still able to judge that it was the old dean’s voice!
“What’s going on?”Zhang Chu’s heart was in a state of disbelief.
The old dean of the orphanage only had a shadow, and she had once said that she did not know who she was or where her physical body was, she only had that shadow.
Even the old director said that she herself didn’t know why she formed that orphanage.
But now, this old woman who had drilled out from the ground had a voice so similar to the old dean.
Was it the same person, or did it originally belong to some great power, but had a different incarnation with a different character?
Zhang Chu’s heart was filled with doubts.
At this moment, all those strange and weird things around him gradually converged around that old lady.
Immediately after that, Zhang Chu saw that those animals were kneeling in front of the old lady, constantly kowtowing and worshipping.
At the same time, Zhang Chu sensed that those animals or ghosts that had become essence, as they knelt, had a mysterious aura on their bodies that crossed the void and flowed into that old woman’s body.
They, it was as if they were using their own essence to pay tribute to this bronze statue-like old lady.
“Woof woof woof, grandpa, do you want me to go give that old lady a bite?”Hot Pot whispered.
Zhang Chu immediately whispered, “You tiger? That old woman isn’t simple at first glance, and although she doesn’t exude much of her aura, it’s definitely not something that the two of us can fight.”
Don’t look at the fact that Zhang Chu’s current realm was already Dantian 12, and there were few enemies in the world.
However, in the face of this unknown weirdness, Zhang Chu was still very self-aware that he definitely could not beat this old lady.
Therefore, Zhang Chu chose to crouch here and see what happened.
Time passed minute by minute, and gradually, on those animals, there was no longer a weird and mysterious aura flowing out.
The bronze statue-like old lady suddenly gently waved her hand, and a white halo enveloped those animals and ghosts again.
The halo was accompanied by mysterious raindrops spilling down.
Those animals and ghosts hurriedly tilted their heads and opened their mouths wide, surprisingly accepting those mysterious raindrops.
Zhang Chu stared at the bizarre scene in the distance, and suddenly had some clarity in his heart, “I get it, these bizarre animals are all tools raised by this old lady, and all the strangeness in this school is all the old lady’s fault!”
“Master asked me to come and fix things in the school, could it be that I’m being asked to mess with this thing?”Zhang Chu muttered in his heart.
“No, no, no, Master should know how much weight I have, I shouldn’t be able to beat this thing.”
“And yet, Master told me that the matter at the school might be related to the old dean, which means that Master has known about this old lady for a long time ……”
At this moment, Zhang Chu’s mind raced, trying to figure out just what deep meaning Shang Xuan Yue had in allowing himself to come this way.
But the more he thought about it, the more Zhang Chu felt that something was wrong.
“Aiya so annoying, if I had that power of my master’s, I would have directly rushed out and slapped this old lady to death, how nice to get rid of it once and for all!”Zhang Chu thought with annoyance in his heart.
But right at this moment, a bright voice suddenly came from the top of the mountain: “What kind of demon? How dare you make a mess in the school under a clear sky, show yourself to me!”
Hearing this voice, Zhang Chu and Hot Pot immediately looked towards the direction of the mountaintop.
They only saw a middle-aged man dressed in rags with several large holes rotted in his body, revealing bronze-coloured skin, with an angry expression on his face as he stared at the old woman.
It was Xu Boqian of the Unsullied Wild!
Zhang Chu could sense that the Xu Boqian at the moment was very angry, and he rushed towards that bronze statue-like old lady in large strides, as if he wanted to fight this old lady to the death.
“I’ll go, Old Xu, take it easy!”Seeing this, Zhang Chu immediately shouted.
In fact, although Zhang Chu was unable to judge the old lady’s true strength, Zhang Chu had a very sharp intuition that Xu Boqian was definitely not a match for the old lady.
And why Xu Boqian had appeared here was also clear in Zhang Chu’s mind.
Previously, Xu Bochen, as Master’s lickspittle, had promised Master that he would protect Zhang Chu for three months.
It was estimated that during this recent period of time, no one was looking for Xu Boqian to play with, so this fellow had sneaked back in to protect Zhang Chu.
As a result, when Xu Boqian encountered this matter, he definitely had to make a move.
If Xu Boqian did it, Zhang Chu would definitely have to do it as well.
After all, the last time he encountered An Miaoyi, Xu Boqian had also made a move to help Zhang Chu block An Miaoyi.
As for the bronze statue-like old lady, it was as if her entire body wouldn’t move, and after she heard Xu Boqian’s voice, her entire body seemed to step on a rotating stone mill, slowly turning around at a certain even speed.
However, she still maintained her original posture, leaning on her crutches and slightly lowering her head, as if she were a statue.
“What kind of person? Dare to meddle in my business!”The old lady grunted.
Xu Boqian, on the other hand, opened wide and after rushing to the old lady’s body, he directly smashed his fist into that old lady’s head.
The old lady did not fight back, but instead her body retreated extremely fast, withdrawing tens of metres at once.
Even as she was retreating, her movements, and even her clothes, didn’t move a bit, as if the whole person had really been transformed into a statue.
Xu Boqian, on the other hand, chased after her and struck out one after another, and every time he threw a punch or a kick, he was just a little bit short of being able to touch this old lady.
But the weird thing was, he was always so close that he couldn’t touch the old lady at all.
After attacking for fourteen moves in a row, Xu Boqian’s strength was exhausted, and his entire body stopped, not even half touching the old lady’s clothes.
At this moment, Zhang Chu brought the hot pot and also came to Xu Boqian’s side.
At this moment, Zhang Chu hurriedly shouted, “Old Xu, don’t make a move first!”
Since the other old lady did not make a move, Zhang Chu felt that it would be a bit of a stomping ground for him to attack further recklessly.
Xu Boqian stopped, however, the look he gave the old lady was filled with hostility and anger.
At this time, Zhang Chu then hurriedly arched his hand at the old lady, “This madam, you should be busy with your business first, my elder brother’s brain is a little bit bad, I’ll take him home.”
After saying that, Zhang Chu directly pulled Xu Boqian’s arm, “Go!”
Xu Boqian, however, did not move.
Zhang Chu’s expression froze as he whispered, “Big brother, you’re no match for her.”
Xu Boqian, on the other hand, stared at the old lady and said loudly, “So what if I’m not her opponent? Can’t you see that this old lady is maiming the living?”
However, the old lady laughed, “Hehe …… maiming living beings? Which one of your eyes do you see me maiming living beings?”
Xu Boqian angrily said, “Releasing so many living beings and causing chaos within the school, is that not mutilating living beings?”
The old lady’s tone, however, was very calm: “I only took a little bit of their life essence, I only made them lose a little bit of their yang life, I didn’t kill them.”
“They are all so young, they have plenty of time and life, taking a few years of their Yang life, what is it worth?”
Zhang Chu’s heart skipped a beat, those spells like sucking in yang qi and cutting hair, were they actually all absorbing the students’ yang life?
Xu Boqian immediately said angrily, “Sucking people’s Yang life for no reason, this Heavenly Reincarnation, can’t tolerate you, die!”
Saying that, Xu Boqian unexpectedly launched an attack towards the old lady once again.
His realm was too high, and Zhang Chu could not stop him.
That old lady did not return the attack, in the face of Xu Boqian’s attack, she did not even move her body, as if she was a statue that could pan, quickly dodging.
Xu Boqian’s successive strikes couldn’t even touch the corners of her clothes.
The old lady, on the other hand, dodged while laughing softly, “With you? This strength, it’s better to go back and practice.”
After saying that, although the old lady’s body did not move, a mysterious power suddenly spread out.
After this power rippled out to Xu Boqian, he immediately felt as if the space around him was filled with water, and some sort of terrifying resistance that constantly entangled him.
Similarly, Zhang Chu also felt as if his surroundings were filled with water, and when he tried to move his arms and legs, he was also able to do so, but he would just encounter a lot of resistance.
Zhang Chu instantly shouted, “Old lady, he’s the one who’s trying to deal with you, don’t deal with me!”
However, the statuesque old lady laughed, “Young man, if I were not as strong as you, I’m afraid that you would have come out to kill me in the first place, right?”
Zhang Chu instantly said, “If? There are no ifs in this world! If there really is an if, then if I were your father, you would have to kneel down and kowtow to me!”
Although Zhang Chu spoke out of turn, this old lady was not annoyed.
She only said softly, “Both of you, don’t leave today, stay.”
