My starting summon is a small skeleton-Chapter 366 - 363 Iron-eating Beast

"Old Thief Cimu, I want you dead!"

Accompanied by a hysterical, heart-wrenching roar of rage.

Xing Zhanlong threw something, and in the next instant, an epic-level power burst forth.

A supreme sword light slashed out.

At that moment, both Ibaraki Gangyan and Lu Wuyi were dumbfounded.

Especially on Lu Wu’s side.

His reason for this move was partly because he was worried that after healing Saeko Dushan, Xing Zhanlong and his group would just leave, or that Saeko Dushan would wake up and he wouldn’t be able to manipulate Xing Zhanlong anymore.

On the other hand, he had vaguely sensed that Xing Zhanlong had an ace up his sleeve, but Lu Wu had never imagined Xing Zhanlong’s trump card would be from Lu Haikong, originating from Moon Shadow.

Seeing that terrifyingly blue sword light, which instantaneously froze half of the Cimu family estate, whose could it be if not from Moon Shadow?

Lu Wu also caught a glimpse of the item in Xing Zhanlong’s hand in that fleeting moment.

...

Name: Moon Shadow Sword

Quality: Epic

Description: A consumable item that internally stores three Moon Shadow attacks.

...

Upon seeing this attribute, Lu Wu immediately exclaimed in his heart.

"Damn, why does he have this thing and I don’t? Who the hell is his son?"

Well, he said this forgetting that although Lu Wu didn’t give him this item, he had sent the entire Moon Shadow over.

Meanwhile, at Ibaraki Gangyan’s side.

Completely baffled by Lu Wu’s trick, he was.

He had just come out to watch the excitement; how did he end up getting slashed by a sword?

Moreover, by the time he recognized the aura of the sword, his expression had already darkened.

Wasn’t this that guy’s aura?

Before he could sort out his thoughts, the threat of death enveloped him.

"Flowing Blade Fire!"

Ibaraki Gangyan’s expression changed, and he immediately drew his Divine Artifact to meet the attack with a sword slash.

In an instant, icy blue sword light collided with crimson blade light.

A terrifying burst of energy erupted, almost overturning the entire Cimu family estate.

It was Ibaraki Gangyan’s quick reaction, opening his field to take the brunt of the damage, or the Cimu family would have likely suffered extensive destruction.

Of course, Ibaraki Gangyan, who took this attack head-on, wasn’t feeling great either, his face alternately paling and flushing.

Clearly, he was injured.

Hit unexpectedly like this, Ibaraki Gangyan couldn’t express how infuriated he was.

"Xing Zhanlong, do you have a death wish?"

At the same time, over at Xing Zhanlong’s side.

After the sword strike, Xing Zhanlong’s mind also cleared, realizing that his previous action had indeed been rash.

Ibaraki Gangyan shouldn’t have had reason to attack at this time.

However, his realization came a bit late.

"Kill him!"

The recently ’comatose’ Lu Wu, having assessed the situation, immediately issued a chilling command.

"Is it really you?"

As Lu Wu spoke, he drew Ibaraki Gangyan’s attention to him immediately.

Already harboring resentment toward Lu Wu, Ibaraki Gangyan completely lost his temper.

"Kneel down!"

With a furious shout, Ibaraki Gangyan swung a hand towards Lu Wu, who didn’t give a damn and immediately picked up the Demon Sword Muramasa that belonged to Saeko Dushan, giving Xing Zhanlong an order.

"Kill him!

Otherwise, I’ll activate it, and Saeko Dushan can’t withstand this turmoil now!"

Xing Zhanlong’s expression changed.

"Despicable!"

After cursing angrily, he turned and roared at Ibaraki Gangyan.

Though in human form, his roar was terrifyingly akin to a bear’s, causing Ibaraki Gangyan’s approaching hand to tremble.

At the same time, a giant beast burst forth from Xing Zhanlong.

For the first time, Lu Wu saw the Summoned Beast of the Xing family.

It was a huge black and white Dumpling.

As the giant beast emerged, its chubby paw slammed down, instantly shattering Ibaraki Gangyan’s approaching crimson hand.

The power of this epic-level attack demonstrated the giant beast’s strength.

Upon seeing its attack and attributes, Lu Wu’s face lit up even more.

...

Name: Iron-eating Beast (Mature stage)

Power: 3 stars (King-level)

Quality: Epic (Enhanced)

Attribute: Metal

State: Excited ("Is it mealtime again? Is it mealtime again?")

Weakness: Fire (Slight)

Basic Skills: Slap (Grandmaster), Defense (Grandmaster), Charge (Grandmaster)…

Advanced Skill: Adorable Beast Slap (Grandmaster)

Killing Skill: Fierce Slap (Grandmaster)

Ultimate Skill: Ultra Fierce Slap (Grandmaster)

Talent: Iron-Eating (Passive) (Able to devour metal and enhance its own power)

Absolut...

Without a doubt,

this was a super meat shield.

Not only was it thick-skinned, but its attack was also terrifying. Despite being at the King-level Power, even those of the Epic Level had difficulty penetrating its defense.

With this big guy around, coupled with the Moon Shadow Sword in Xing Zhanlong’s hands, Lu Wu felt that he still had hope to kill the opponent.

On the side of Ibaraki Gangyan, his face turned extremely ugly upon seeing the appearance of the ten-meter-tall giant dumpling.

His words also softened, "Zhanlong, don’t be swayed by him, he..."

"Muramasa, explode for me!"

Ibaraki Gangyan had not finished speaking, and Lu Wu shouted directly.

"No!"

Xing Zhanlong was particularly good at seizing the moment, grabbing control through Du Dao Hu Zi.

But he was no fool and did not want to be used by Lu Wu just like that, so he tried to negotiate with Lu Wu.

"Zheng Dajun, I am not Mr. Cimu’s match, what you’re asking is almost impossible for me, how about this, you tell me any other requirements you have?

I will discuss it with Mr. Cimu and try to satisfy you.

I believe Mr. Cimu would be willing to grant me this favor, wouldn’t you agree, Mr. Cimu?"

Ibaraki Gangyan’s face was livid, yet he could only nod indicating there was no problem.

On Lu Wu’s side, after looking at Xing Zhanlong and then at Ibaraki Gangyan, he also seemed to feel it was unlikely for Xing Zhanlong to kill anyone.

So he hesitated for a moment before biting his teeth.

"Mr. Xing, I actually don’t want this either.

But I really have no other choice.

He has captured Miss Qingzi and is using her as a threat to force me to be his tool.

With no other choice, I can only resort to this strategy, and I’m really sorry for bringing such trouble to you.

Let him return Miss Qingzi and my belongings to me, let us go, and I promise not to lay a hand on Miss Dushan.

And, Old Thief Cimu, don’t try to use the energy you left inside me against me, or I will fight you.

If I can’t rescue Miss Qingzi, I’d rather die together with Miss Dushan.

Sorry, but for Miss Qingzi’s sake, I am willing to do anything!"

Well.

With these words from Lu Wu, an image of a madly-in-love, honest man was fully enriched.

Xing Zhanlong’s anger and killing intent towards Lu Wu had diminished greatly.

After all, both were the honest kind, and when he turned to look at Ibaraki Gangyan again, his eyes bore a chill.

Everyone being honest folk, naturally harbored a shared animosity towards those who would break an honest man’s heart.

"Impossible!"

Ibaraki Gangyan outright refused.

This tool of Lu Wu, he absolutely could not let go.

And Lu Wu’s words also reminded him, right, he still had energy within Lu Wu’s body, why waste time talking?

"Kneel down!"

Ibaraki Gangyan stared coldly at Lu Wu, with a cold snort, the Cimu energy inside Lu Wu erupted.

About to lock down Lu Wu.

And on Lu Wu’s side, his eyes turned red and his complexion changed, spurting out a mouthful of blood.

The light of the Demon Sword Muramasa in his hand flashed insanely, erupting violently, making Du Dao Hu Zi’s face turn pale.

Fortunately, Lu Wu managed to suppress Muramasa with a struggle, erupting the Heavenly Cluster Cloud Sword.

This sudden turn of events further agitated Xing Zhanlong.

Now he saw clearly, gambling with Du Dao Hu Zi’s life, Old Thief Cimu deserves to die!

"Gun Gun!"

Sensing Xing Zhanlong’s fury, the round and plump black and white Dumpling charged up, delivering a slap to Ibaraki Gangyan.

At this moment, although Ibaraki Gangyan was surprised he had not taken down Lu Wu, he had no time to concern himself with that.

Failing to capture Lu Wu through energy, he had to subdue Xing Zhanlong first.

Facing the slap from the black and white Dumpling, Ibaraki Gangyan didn’t resist and was directly slapped into a burst of fire by the palm.

But also at the moment of dispersing, he immediately gathered behind the black and white Dumpling.

With the Flowing Blade Fire in his hand, a red streak flashed across the neck of the black and white Dumpling.

The next moment, a beautiful splash of blood bloomed.

With one strike successful, Ibaraki Gangyan’s lips raised, his face full of pride!

"Below the Epic, all are ants!"

"Pfft!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the black and white Dumpling instantly turned around, its terrifying aura locking onto Ibaraki Gangyan and with an extremely vicious slap, again turned Ibaraki Gangyan into a burst of fire.

At the same time, the bleeding at its neck stopped, the wound rapidly healing in a short time.

This scene once again darkened the expression of Ibaraki Gangyan now re-formed into human shape.

Clearly, he had only then realized the terrifying defensive power of this black and white Dumpling.

His strike just now, had probably only cut a wound of one or two centimeters.

At the same time, Lu Wu on the side had noticed another attribute of Ibaraki Gangyan’s domain.

"In his domain, he seems able to transform into flames to mitigate damage, though not completely, but enough to offset most of it, making it a bit troublesome for Old Xing to take down Ibaraki Gangyan!"

Indeed, the following situation on Xing Zhanlong’s side turned into a tough battle.

Ibaraki Gangyan’s domain power was difficult to deal with, as the black and white Dumpling’s several strikes didn’t manage to cause him much harm.

Xing Zhanlong’s Moon Shadow Sword could injure him, but Xing Zhanlong never got the chance, thus the black and white Dumpling was kept at bay.

In less than a few minutes, the black and white Dumpling had already received several wounds.

Three minutes later, Ibaraki Gangyan appeared in front of the black and white Dumpling, admiringly saying, "To withstand this long with King-level Power, you are indeed quite outstanding, but this is as far as you go!"

As he spoke, the Divine Artifact in Ibaraki Gangyan’s hand shone brightly.

"Fire God Slash!"

Accompanied by a dignified cry, the entire Cimu family was covered in a red light.

Xing Zhanlong was startled and quickly instructed Gun Gun to defend with full strength.

He was aware that the Fire God Slash was Ibaraki Gangyan’s famous Ultimate Skill, terribly formidable, difficult even for those of the Epic Level to handle.

However, just as Gun Gun set up the Defensive Stance, that promised "Fire God Slash" did not come.

Instead, Lu Wu heard Ibaraki Gangyan’s low and endlessly angry voice in his ear, "Caught you now!"
