Chapter 75 - 75: What Does a Clone Wearing Female Clothes Have to Do with the Main Body?
There was a gold-rank great practitioner, three silver-rank practitioners, and over a hundred bronze-rank and metal-rank practitioners.
Such a line-up was naturally not something that two mere pseudo-Innate Stage martial artists and a group of zombies could withstand.
Zombies might be terrifying to ordinary people, but to the practitioners, they were just like any other opponent.
After all, monsters like zombies were the most common opponents that practitioners encountered.
In short, the practitioners were professionals when it came to dealing with zombies!
The Lion-ape practitioner waved his hand in front of the two horrified Blood Warrior Monks.
The next moment, hundreds of practitioners instantly attacked.
The zombies did not sit still and wait for death. They rushed towards the practitioners as well.
Zombies were not afraid of pain or death, and their bodies were comparable to a martial artist who had practiced martial arts for seven or eight years.
However, there was a fatal flaw with zombies.
They had no intelligence!
Zombies, who only knew how to kill and had no intelligence, were at most a large group of wild beasts.
They would not pose too much of a threat to the practitioners.
The only ones who could pose a threat to the latter were the two Blood Warrior Monks.
However, with the Lion-ape practitioner around, the two Blood Warrior Monks would have a hard time protecting themselves, let alone attacking the other practitioners.
In the Blood Warrior Monks’ original plan, they would first use the zombies to deplete the Lion-ape practitioner’s blood qi and inborn vitality, and then fight him in a round-robin battle.
Unfortunately, this plan had undoubtedly failed.
Without the thousands of zombies holding him back, the two Blood Warrior Monks who had just broken through to the Innate Stage were no match for the Lion-ape practitioner who was a veteran Innate Stage martial artist.
Soon, the two of them began to fight while retreating, trying to escape from here.
However, the Lion-ape practitioner did not give the two of them a chance to escape.
Relying on his outstanding physical fitness and inborn vitality, he kept them where they stood.
Every time they tried to escape, the Lion-ape practitioner would attack them crazily, not giving them a chance to escape at all.
The two Blood Warrior Monks watched in despair as the zombies around them were gradually disposed of by the practitioners.
After all the zombies were eliminated, not a single practitioner had been killed.
Only one unlucky metal-rank practitioner was seriously injured. He fell over because he ran too fast in the process of chasing the enemy and hit his head on a rock.
He was the only practitioner who was seriously injured.
Without the zombie horde, the two Blood Warrior Monks found themselves in a dire situation.
In terms of strength, the hundreds of ordinary practitioners around them could not threaten them at all. However, these practitioners did not need to defeat these two Blood Warrior Monks either.
Their role was only to restrain the two of them and not let them escape.
Unfortunately for the Blood Warrior Monks, they were not proper Innate Stage martial artists. They could not display the strength of Innate Stage martial artists in battle.
Otherwise, even if they were not a match for the Lion-ape practitioner, it would not be a problem for them to escape from the latter.
An imposter would always be an imposter. They had no substance to speak of!
In the end, under the siege of the gold-rank Lion-ape practitioner and the other practitioners, one of the two Blood Warrior Monks was killed while the other was seriously injured.
The severely injured Blood Warrior Monk was captured by the Lion-ape practitioner. The latter personally watched over him as he was transported back to the Devil Slayers Division.
Similar scenes occurred in other parts of the Great Xia Kingdom.
After all, the sudden appearance of the Blood Warrior Monks this time wasn’t limited to just one location. They appeared all over the Great Xia Kingdom like bamboo shoots after the rain. It was very strange.
In response, all the practitioners in the Devil Slayers Division were mobilized.
Even the four gold-rank great practitioners of the division were dispatched.
Because of this, the entire Devil Slayers Division fell into an unprecedented state of weakness; they were seriously short of manpower.
In the headquarters of the Devil Slayers Division.
“Young Master, the four gold-rank great practitioners have already gone to their respective locations. Before they left, they took most of the practitioners with them. Are you sure you don’t want a gold-rank great practitioner stationed here?”
Lu Yuan, who was drinking tea in the courtyard, heard Xu Wan’er’s slightly worried words and said with a smile, “Why? Are you worried that someone will come to our Devil Slayers Division at this time to cause trouble?”
She nodded. After three years of Lu Yuan’s training, the current Xu Wan’er was no longer the naive and innocent girl from back then.
She understood some basic human relationships.
Moreover, in the past few months, Lu Yuan had continuously instilled in her the concept of cultivating steadily. He advised her to not make a move hastily and be sure to eliminate the problem at the source.
As a result, the current Xu Wan’er had already grasped the essence of the first level of Lu Yuan’s steadiness.
Therefore, when she saw the empty headquarters, she was shocked and felt that such an arrangement was not in line with Lu Yuan’s usual steady personality.
She wondered whether Lu Yuan had some other plans that she did not know about.
Lu Yuan did not choose to answer Xu Wan’er’s doubts directly.
He took a sip of the hot tea and said with a smile, “Wan’er, you should cultivate in seclusion in the dungeon for a period of time. Without my orders, don’t come out.”
He continued, “After all, it won’t be long before we have guests over.”
Hearing this, Xu Wan’er revealed an expression of realization.
“I understand,” she said obediently.
The young master was indeed scheming something. However, she did not know who his unlucky victim was.
“Alright, you can go over now. It just so happens that you have also reached the critical period of establishing your Foundation. The dungeon is a dangerous place for others, but for you, it is a precious place for cultivation.”
“When you are about to break through, I will cleanse your divine soul and help you complete your Foundation Establishment.”
When she heard Lu Yuan mention divine soul cleansing, Xu Wan’er’s face immediately turned red.
It was as if this cleansing of the divine soul was something indecent.
In reality, the cleansing of the divine soul was a proper procedure, but Lu Yuan’s cleansing method was a little improper.
Every time Lu Yuan helped her cleanse her divine soul, his hands would always touch many parts of her body.
He would even touch some sensitive spots.
Lu Yuan’s explanation for this was that he was doing this to better remove the spiritual impurities from her divine soul. He had no other intentions.
Xu Wan’er felt that Lu Yuan was lying to her, but she had no proof.
Nevertheless, she did not dislike the so-called divine soul cleansing.
After Xu Wan’er left, a figure suddenly walked out of the room behind Lu Yuan.
This figure was dressed exactly like Xu Wan’er.
However, compared to Xu Wan’er, this figure’s temperament and expression was even colder. They were like a human-shaped ice mountain.
This icy Xu Wan’er was naturally not Xu Wan’er herself, but Lu Yuan’s clone.
This clone of his was just cross-dressing.
It wasn’t because Lu Yuan had some special fetish.
He just needed to use the cross-dressing clone in his next plan.
He looked at the cross-dressing clone that had no flaws in terms of divine soul fluctuations or appearance.
Lu Yuan muttered to himself, “In the Journey to the West, Monkey Sun pretended to be a woman in Gao Lao Zhuang. Today, in the Devil Slayers Division, my clone will pretend to be a woman. Even Zhu Bajie fell for Monkey Sun’s disguise. Chen De isn’t smarter than Zhu Bajie, is he?”
Thinking of this, Lu Yuan looked at his clone dressed in female clothes and could not help but laugh.
The stage had already been set. He was just waiting for the main leads to appear.
Lu Yuan did not feel any shame at all to have his clone dress up as a woman. It was as though he had done this before.
After all, what the clone did had nothing to do with his main body..
