Chapter 447: Xiao Nanfeng's Splendid Victory

At the mouth of the abyss, within the formation of black fog, Xiao Nanfeng was surrounded by a group of rabbit-headed humanoids who were attacking him, including two of the Rabbit Yanluo's avatars.

Even against a formation of such strength, he didn't seem to be fearful. He met the cursed effigies in battle with his arhat armor, sending the rabbit-headed humanoids flying one after the other. However, the Rabbit Yanluo's two avatars were particularly skilled in battle, and their sneak attacks caused him huge headaches.

"Xiao Nanfeng, your fist technique might be strong, but you won't be able to defeat us alone. Today, you're bound to die. Give up now and I'll hand you a clean death," one of the Rabbit Yanluo's avatars exclaimed.

"I don't intend to surrender," Xiao Nanfeng replied, not giving in. "Let's continue!"

"You stubborn fool! Suppress him!" one of the Rabbit Yanluo's avatars cried out.

"Understood!"

The rabbit-headed humanoids rushed toward Xiao Nanfeng, ignoring the serious injuries that he inflicted on them. The two Rabbit Yanluo's avatars dealt him heavy blows, one from the front and the other from the back, leaving him immobile.

Up in the air, Yin Tianci smiled coldly. "Do you really think one person can take care of so many cursed effigies at once? Aren't you just trying to kill yourself like that?"

Just then, the golden arhat into which Xiao Nanfeng had transformed glowed with golden light.

"No—he's going to self-destruct!" Yin Tianci exclaimed.

"Xiao Nanfeng, you'll be at the heart of the explosion. If you destroy your arhat armor, you'll surely die. You must be trying to fool us into letting you go. Well, dream on!" one of the Rabbit Yanluo's avatars exclaimed.

"I don't intend to die," Xiao Nanfeng retorted coldly.

His arhat armor exploded in a devastating wave of flames that surged all around him.

"Is Xiao Nanfeng crazy? Did he really self-destruct?!" Yin Tianci cried out from the air.

He too was buffeted by the resulting impact, and he was sent flying in a wretched state.

The formation of black fog shattered in flames. The energy released during the destruction drifted across their surroundings and turned the mountains all around into rubble. A huge cloud of dust floated up into the air.

Yin and the Ox Yanluo, witnessing the explosion from afar, were likewise taken by surprise.

The Divine Seal of Dazheng floated in the heart of the explosion, wholly undamaged. Xiao Nanfeng had hidden within it the moment he ignited the armor.

Now that the explosion had dissipated, he rushed out once again.

Dust rose into the air all around him. The rabbit-headed humanoids had been battered from the explosion, and one of the Rabbit Yanluo's avatars was bloody all over and clearly badly wounded. She fell to the ground weakly. The other avatar's arhat armor was completely shattered, revealing Lan Jiguang's physical body.

"How did Xiao Nanfeng escape unscathed?" one of the Rabbit Yanluo's avatars cried out.

"Just what is that imperial seal of his made of? How could it have defended against an explosion of this magnitude?!" the other avatar exclaimed.

Xiao Nanfeng didn't waste any time. With a wave of his hand, he donned another suit of arhat armor.

"How did he obtain another suit?!"

"It must be his woman's!"

The Rabbit Yanluo's two avatars shouted in shock as Xiao Nanfeng rushed toward them.

"We have to flee!" they cried out.

However, they were both seriously injured by then, and neither were a match for the golden arhat.

The golden arhat caught them both, one in each hand.

"I've got you," Xiao Nanfeng crowed, pleased.

"Let go, Xiao Nanfeng!" the two Rabbit Yanluo's avatars shouted.

In the air, Yin Tianci, who had managed to fend off the firestorm, widened his eyes. He hadn't expected the fight to end so quickly—nor for it to have ended with Xiao Nanfeng's victory. Nothing was going according to plan. He didn't even have a chance to claim Lady Yaoguang for himself yet!

Yin Tianci hurriedly howled toward the outside of the abyss, "I need a group of cultivators to come down and assist me, all wearing arhat armor! Hurry!"

Xiao Nanfeng turned toward Yin Tianci, but ignored his actions. He then shouted, "Tiger Yanluo, Ox Yanluo, where are your avatars? Come out now and I'll give you something good. Otherwise, you won't get anything!"

The two Yanluo Lords afar stared at the battlefield occluded by flame and dust. A twinned domain of white and black fog had manifested in the air. The aura of two Yanluo Courts could be sensed from within.

Meanwhile, the rabbit-headed humanoids were quickly regenerating after having been devastated by the explosion. To their surprise, they found Xiao Nanfeng holding onto the Rabbit Yanluo's two avatars in his hands. What was going on?

"Xiao Nanfeng, we're right here! What benefits do you have for us?" the Ox Yanluo's avatar shouted.

"Ox Yanluo, why did you expose our location?!" Yin hissed.

"He knows that we're here, so hiding won't be of any use. Why not accept his offer? He must be doing so for some reason or another, and I'd like to know what he's trying to accomplish," the Ox Yanluo's avatar analyzed.

Xiao Nanfeng, hearing the Ox Yanluo's shout, flew toward them.

"Yanluo Lords, I hold two of the Rabbit Yanluo's avatars in my hands. She possessed my woman's parents. Don't the two of you want to catch the Rabbit Yanluo? I'll give these two avatars to you, one each, if you help me extract the Rabbit Yanluo's cursed spiritual avatar from these bodies."

The two Yanluo Lords stared at Xiao Nanfeng's palms.

"Even you have ended up in such dire straits, Rabbit Yanluo. Haha!" The Ox Yanluo's avatar laughed.

The Rabbit Yanluo's avatars gritted their teeth, but Xiao Nanfeng was holding onto them so tightly that they simply couldn't move.

"Xiao Nanfeng, do you think we'd assist you?" Yin asked with a smirk.

The Ox Yanluo mirrored his expression. "You want to keep the physical bodies of your woman's parents, is that it? You really are willing to do anything for her, but why should we help you out?"

The two Yanluo Lords' avatars showed no interest in helping Xiao Nanfeng. They were simply there for the show.

"You'll have no choice but to help. You must have seen the huge explosion just now. If you don't help me, I'll do that again and blow you both to pieces," Xiao Nanfeng threatened.

The Ox Yanluo's avatar: ...

Yin: ...

They had been planning on coercing Xiao Nanfeng, but he had turned the tables on them near-immediately. How could that be?

"I know that your main bodies are headed over, but it'll take some time for them to get here. If you don't help me out now, I'll get rid of your avatars and claim all the prizes here for myself. By the time your main bodies arrive, it'll be too late. You'll have lost everything once again. Well? Hurry!" Xiao Nanfeng chided.

The two Yanluo Lords grimaced, not expecting that Xiao Nanfeng would be able to identify a vulnerability in their actions rapidly. This was incredibly frustrating!

"I don't believe you dare do that. If you want to strike at me, go on. I'll take you on!" Yin shouted.

"Let me help," the Ox Yanluo's avatar said directly.

"What? Ox Yanluo, don't you want to salvage your reputation? How could you be willing to succumb to his threats?" Yin seethed.

"What threats? This is clearly a benefit that Xiao Nanfeng's willing to impart to us. If you don't want it, so be it," the Ox Yanluo continued. Then, he turned to Xiao Nanfeng. "I'll help you extract the two cursed souls from the Rabbit Yanluo's avatars if you help me deal with the Tiger Yanluo's avatar now."

"Deal! Once you start the extraction process, I'll deal with Yin and make sure he can't see or get anything," Xiao Nanfeng replied smoothly.

"Ox Yanluo, you bastard!" Yin roared.

Yin immediately attempted to flee, but he knew that doing so would only serve to benefit the Ox Yanluo. There had to be a huge prize lying in wait—he might even be able to swallow up the Rabbit Yanluo for himself. How could he miss such an opportunity? Even so, he couldn't live with the prospect of being threatened by Xiao Nanfeng.

As the Ox Yanluo prepared to make his move, Yin seethed but called out, "Bring them over! I'll help you, you bastard!"

Xiao Nanfeng tossed out the two Rabbit Yanluo's avatars to the two Yanluo Lords.

"No! I'm not going to let you absorb my cursed soul. Dream on!" the two Rabbit Yanluo's avatars cried out.

"It's too late for you to self-destruct now!" The Ox Yanluo's avatar reached out for Lan Jiguang's mindscape.

"If you wanted to do it, you should have done it earlier," Yin agreed, reaching out for Yaoguang's mother's mindscape.

Two bursts of cursed spiritual power suffused the cultivators' bodies.

"Stop right there!" the Rabbit Yanluo's avatars shouted.

Unfortunately, it was being suppressed by Xiao Nanfeng and the two Yanluo Lords simultaneously, and was unable to do anything. Two rabbit-shaped specters were pulled out of the two physical bodies.

The two specters screamed. "Let me go!"

Yin and the Ox Yanluo had no intention to show mercy. They tossed the specters into their mouths.

"No!"

The two rabbit-shaped specters were quickly gulped down.

"King!" shouted the rabbit-headed humanoids that had just regenerated.

Yin Tianci gulped down his saliva as he watched on from the distance. He wouldn't have expected Xiao Nanfeng to threaten two Yanluo Lords into doing his bidding. That was crazy!

"Thank you, Yanluo Lords," Xiao Nanfeng said.

Xiao Nanfeng's hand reached out from the arhat armor and pulled Lan Jiguang and his wife's bodies into the Divine Seal of Dazheng.

"Xiao Nanfeng, now that we've helped you out, you should explain what's going on here. What's up with those clouds of black and white fog? Is the Rabbit Yanluo's main body within?" Yin pointed up into the air.

He didn't want to miss out on the opportunity that the clouds of fog represented; that was why he had ultimately chosen to go against his conscience and help out Xiao Nanfeng.

"Yes, what's going on, Xiao Nanfeng?" the Ox Yanluo pressed.

He too had only helped Xiao Nanfeng because of that cloud of fog, and he urgently wanted to figure out what lay within.

"Fellows, I owe you nothing after our transaction. You helped me extract the Rabbit Yanluo's soul from these two bodies, and I gave it to you as payment. What lies within the fog belongs to me, and is none of your business. If you keep pushing, don't expect me to show you any courtesy."

The Ox Yanluo's avatar: ...

Yin: ...

"Xiao Nanfeng, do you want to die?" Yin demanded.

The Ox Yanluo's face was ice-cold, clearly dissatisfied with Xiao Nanfeng's behavior as well.

"Don't you dare look at me like that. If you don't treat me politely, I'll kill you both," Xiao Nanfeng threatened.

The two Yanluo Lords' avatars: ...

Why had they stepped forward to help out their opponent? They were only causing trouble for themselves!
