Urban God of War: The Live-in Son-in-law-Chapter 500 - 496: I’ll Take This Beast Core!

Ye Feng noticed that this Shikigami was so resolute in its charge, clearly intending to self-destruct and take everyone with it. Onmyoji Beya was the most powerful of the three Onmyoji, so naturally, the Shikigami he nurtured were also relatively powerful, especially this last one, which was the strongest of all.

If it charged and exploded, Xiao Chuanqi, Sima Zhantian, and the others would likely be either killed or grievously injured. And in the perilous environment of the Outer Battlefield, such severe injuries were extremely dangerous.

At this moment, Onmyoji Beya made a swift move, fleeing towards the west.

"Boy, I'll remember you, just you wait!" Onmyoji Beya roared in anger.

Ye Feng, naturally, couldn't pursue any longer and had to move towards Xiao Chuanqi and the rest, but it was already too late to take them out of there – the situation had become urgent.

Ye Feng's expression darkened as he passed over Xiao Chuanqi and the others, charging towards the Shikigami.

"Master…" Shadow couldn't help but exclaim in shock.

"Emperor's Armor!" Ye Feng instantly activated his defenses to their maximum, and at that moment, half of the Acupoints in his body ignited.

Just then, with a thunderous explosion, the Shikigami detonated, and the terrifying shockwave immediately engulfed Ye Feng.

"Master!" Xiao Chuanqi and the others cried out in alarm.

The entire lake was suddenly whipped into surging waves due to the powerful shockwave, and the liquid from the lake that was caught in the blast started burning.

"We need to leave here now!" Seeing that there was no chance to worry about Ye Feng's fate, Li Benzhong and the others hurriedly made for the shore.

Xiao Chuanqi and the others braced against the shockwave, dead set on rushing towards Ye Feng's location.

"The master tried to save us, he couldn't have…" Sima Zhantian's face was etched with worry.

However, at that moment, Ye Feng's voice emerged: "Don't worry, it was just a mere Shikigami. If the Onmyoji had self-destructed, I might not have been able to withstand it, but a Shikigami isn't enough to do me in!"

As the shockwave dissipated and the surface of the lake slowly calmed, Ye Feng's figure finally began to appear. He looked somewhat disheveled, and there was even a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth, but he seemed to be mostly unharmed.

"Thank goodness, the master is alright!" Sima Zhantian exclaimed joyfully.

Ye Feng waved his hand, "Let's leave this place first!"

After all, the lake was far too strange, and hovering above its surface for too long was exceedingly dangerous. They quickly returned to the rocky area they were at before, and it was only now that everyone realized Ye Feng wasn't as relaxed as it seemed on the surface.

Without another word, Ye Feng sat down cross-legged, and as everyone had seen, he had borne the brunt of the Shikigami's explosion. His Emperor's Armor could only withstand part of the shockwave, and at the moment, his internal organs had been displaced. Had it not been for his robust flesh body, he might have already collapsed.

"How are you, master?" Shadow, clad in black, hurried over, and Xiao Chuanqi, Sima Zhantian, and Leng Wuming also came over when they saw this.

"I need to regulate my breath, guard me!" Ye Feng merely said these words before closing his eyes.

Xiao Chuanqi and the others did not hesitate and immediately surrounded Ye Feng, standing guard in four directions to ward off any unexpected dangers.

The whole team was now in an uproar, everyone exchanging glances and even whispering among themselves.

Li Benzhong, witnessing this, couldn't stop his eyes from darting around, and it was unclear what devious thoughts were crossing his mind.

At this time, a youth from the Duan Family communicated telepathically, "Lord Li, that Ye fellow seems to have been seriously injured. This is a rare opportunity."

Li Benzhong replied with a deadpan face, "It's true the kid's gravely injured, but didn't you see he's got four Vajra protectors? Alone, I doubt I can contend with them, and certainly can't break through their defense."

The Duan Family youth sneered, "On your own, of course not, but what about the other team members?"

"What do you mean?" Li Benzhong asked thoughtfully.

"My point is, he has a Beast Core on him, and you see that many team members clearly have other ideas. After all, the Beast Core is no trivial matter; everyone wants a share. At this time, just a little instigation from you, Lord Li, would definitely rile them up!" the Duan Family youth said.

"Indeed, that's a good idea!" Li Benzhong slowly stood up after saying this.

Sima Zhantian gave him a stern look and demanded, "Li Benzhong, what are you planning to do at a time like this?"

Li Benzhong chuckled, "Don't worry, I have no bad intentions. I'm just concerned about the team leader's injuries. I happen to be skilled in medicine and was about to go over to see if I could help heal him."

Xiao Chuanqi suddenly shouted coldly, "Listen up, those who want to approach will be killed without mercy!"

Li Benzhong's expression darkened, and after a moment of thought, he said, "Well, if that's the case, then I won't go. It's frustrating when one's kindness is misunderstood as ill will. But there is something I must say, that is, the Beast Core. Now, it's just being monopolized by the team leader, which seems a bit unreasonable, doesn't it?"

He continued without waiting for Xiao Chuanqi and others to respond, "After all, we are a team. Since we obtained a benefit, it should belong to the entire team. If the team leader monopolizes everything we encounter, that would be quite unfair. Don't you all agree?"
