Chapter 959 - Enemy’s Counterattack

Li Huowang deflated. He didn’t know what to say.

“Let’s put that aside. I don’t have time to explain—they’re already here! Prepare yourself!”

The moment he finished speaking, a faint clicking sound came from outside the door.

“Shh! It’s dangerous outside! That’s the sound of someone loading their magazines!”

Qing Wanglai quickly took out his gun and opened up the safe.

“Why did none of us notice that before? How come everything he says ends up happening? What a jinx.”

Ba Nanxu stood up, chewing something with visible annoyance.

Zhao Shuangdian said nothing. She looked at Li Huowang with interest.

“Li Huowang, your condition is still unstable. Stay here and don’t move. I will bring the others up front,” Qing Wanglai said, picking up his weapon and exiting the mansion with the others.

“Now that’s more like it,” Li Huowang said, chuckling before bringing his clone towards the mountain of worms.

With their help, Li Huowang could fight against the two Simings on his own without worrying about getting intercepted by the other Simings from Fu Shengtian’s side.

Fu Shengtian’s Siming were gravely mistaken if they thought they could enter this world as they pleased.

After fighting for a while, Li Huowang and his clone realized that the two Simings weren’t pushovers. No matter how hard they tried to use their cultivation, the holes continued to spread, and the fleshy worms continued to devour the Tianchen Kingdom.

“Shit!” Li Huowang stopped and called Qing Wanglai using his phone.

“Hey! It’s me. Where’s your insect repellent? Don’t question me about it. Just tell me if you have it or not!”

After getting the answer, Li Huowang threw the phone aside before reaching for the shoe cabinet.

He opened it and saw the yellow insect repellent. Li Huowang shook it vigorously before spraying it.

“Nana! Come and give it Death! We will kill Fu Shengtian’s Simings here right now!”

With a hiss, the massive worm mountain slowly disintegrated, revealing Zuoqiu Yong’s massive body covered in holes.

Li Huowang looked at the holes and didn’t know what to do.

The other Simings had suppressed Zuoqiu Yong. Dealing with the worms was easy, but not with the holes. The worms would persistently grow out if he didn’t remove the holes.

Li Huowang looked at the disgusting holes in Zuoqiu Yong’s body before figuring something out. He quickly grabbed his phone again and called Qing Wanglai, “Ask Chen Hongyu to come here! I need her special abilities!”

Soon, the fleshy worms hidden inside the holes were expelled from Zuoqiu Yong’s body, like pimples were popped. They were washed out by the pus, just like the ones on Chen Hongyu’s face.

Now that the worms were gone, Zuoqiu Yong’s body started to rot. Her melting flesh fused together, and her body soon became a rotting mountain.

The rotting flesh was gone soon after, and Zuoqiu Yong regenerated herself. As long as the holes were gone, an injury on this level wouldn’t be able to harm her.

Li Huowang sighed in relief. Then, he heard the window shattering, and a black object rolled before him.

Li Huowang hissed in surprise. “Grenade! Run!”

Li Huowang grabbed Yang Na and ran into the washroom.

They couldn’t get very far before it exploded. The explosion blasted Li Huowang off his feet.

The hall was now filled with dust. Yang Na winced in pain, holding her bleeding head. Her eyes widened when she saw Li Huowang lying in front of her, his back a bloody mess.

He had used his own body to shield her.

Tears welled in her eyes. She couldn’t bear to see him like this. She frantically tried to pull him up, but she didn’t know what to do.

Yang Na kept patting his face, attempting to wake him up.

Li Huowang was still unconscious, and Yang Na was afraid. She was terrified that he was dead this time.

“Li Huowang, you can’t die! You don’t have permission to die!”

“Cough cough!” Li Huowang coughed and reached for his waist to pull out a shard of glass embedded into his body.

Li Huowang weakly fell into her embrace. “It’s ok... It’s ok... I can’t die for now.”

“Why did you shield me? I control the Heavenly Dao of Death. I can’t die.”

Yang Na was very worried and felt guilty because of it.

Li Huowang smiled bitterly and tried to steady his breath. “Go find the first aid kit in Wu Qi’s room.”

Since the enemies decided to attack them face-on, the battle would surely take a long time. Li Huowang dared not rest even though he was hurt.

“Alright, sit here and don’t move!” Yang Na said before quickly running into Wu Qi’s room.

“Damn, there’s so many people outside, and yet they threw the grenade into the house. They are trying to kill me!”

Li Huowang continued to pull off the glass shards embedded in his body.

Qing Wanglai’s home was pretty, but the glass shards were deadly.

“Thankfully, the wounds are not fatal.”

Li Huowang forced himself to reach the wine cabinet and took a bottle of strong alcohol. He drank a large gulp for himself before pouring the rest onto his back.

The intense pain made his body shiver. Li Huowang almost broke his teeth by biting too hard, but it worked. His head was no longer buzzing, and he felt much better.

Li Huowang called Qing Wanglai again, but no one picked up this time.

He tried calling the others, but none of them picked up either.

“They must be in the middle of a fight. Just... why aren’t there any gunshots outside?”

Li Huowang dragged himself towards the door. However, before he even got close, another black object rolled towards his feet.

His mind went blank. It was too late to run, so Li Huowang instinctively picked it up before throwing it out of the window.
