Chapter 22: Xu Rou's Illness

her hands together in prayer, her red-stained fingers pleading to heaven.Fu Qing walked over with a broom.Fu Qing still had doubts in her heart: "Sister Hong, can she really do it"At this moment, Ging...Chang Shengbo saw the shocking thunder order in Ye Chen's hand, and at a glance he recognized that it was also a magic weapon made from thunderbolt wood. Moreover, although he didn't know how to refine magical artifacts, he still knew the quality of raw materials. The piece of thunderbolt wood in Ye Chen's hand looked like it had a very long history, definitely top-grade thunderbolt wood.

He was utterly astonished and blurted out, "This... what on earth is going on Where did you get that artifact"

Ye Chen sneered and said, "To be honest with you, these two pieces of lightning-struck wood that we have are actually refined by the Supreme Laojun. The one in my hand is the father, and the one in yours is the son. Although the son is usually arrogant and domineering, when he sees his father, he still has to be obedient and naturally falls silent!"

Chang Sheng bore his defeat badly and shouted, “Damn you! Do you think just because I'm old, I haven't read Journey to the West! I won't believe your bullsh*t!”

Ye Chen smiled and said, "Don't believe me Don't believe me, I'll give you a demonstration!"

Having said that, before Chang Shengbo could react, Ye Chen suddenly retracted his smile. His aura was like that of someone standing atop the five sacred mountains, he shouted loudly: "Come, thunder!"

As soon as his words fell, a large swathe of dark clouds quickly rose in the sky. Lightning flashed and thunder boomed within them, quite frightening!

This scene was very familiar to Chang Shengbo. Although the dark clouds weren't as thick and frightening as the ones he had encountered when using the lightning strike wood that day, the feeling was exactly the same!

Ye Chen suddenly summoned a bolt of lightning, which startled him as if struck by thunder. He thought to himself, "Damn it! Could it be true that this kid said, my Thunder Order is useless against him!"

Upon thinking this, he hastily retreated at top speed, wanting to dodge the incoming bolt of heavenly lightning.

But, the thunderbolt was controlled by Ye Chen's thoughts, how could he dodge it so easily!

Ye Chen's eyes were fixed on Chang Shengbo's figure. Immediately after, a bolt of heavenly thunder roared and struck directly at the top of Chang Shengbo's head!

Ye Chen's handiwork, that thunderbolt order, could only be used once. And to use it, it required a huge amount of spiritual energy to activate, and its power was immense, belonging to an oversized category of thunderbolt orders.

But Ye Chen's own lightning order was something that could be adjusted freely, expanding and contracting as he willed. If he wanted it to be big, it would be big; if he wanted it to be small, it would be small!

He didn't want to cause Chang Shengbo too much harm so quickly, so he deliberately controlled the release of his spiritual energy. As a result, this strike of heavenly thunder did not inflict significant damage on Chang Shengbo.

But even so, Chang Shengbo's hair was struck by lightning into a chicken coop-like mess, his face blackened as soot, and even his Taoist robe became ragged and tattered. His whole body ached and tingled, leaving him uncontrollably twitching in place.

Seeing him in such a disheveled state, Ye Chen chuckled and asked, "How is it I didn't lie to you, did I"

At this moment, Yun Ru Ge who was hiding twenty zhang away in the darkness, had turned as pale as a sheet. She never imagined that this black-clothed man could actually control lightning! And she never thought that Chang Sheng Bo, whose strength was formidable, would be so easily defeated before this black-clothed man!

And she couldn't help but wonder what she should do next.

If he rushed out to help Chang Shengbo, he was probably no match for the man in black. Besides, Chang Shengbo has always looked down on others, including the other three counts. He and Chang Shengbo didn't have much of a relationship either. There was absolutely no need to risk his life helping him at this point.

But she didn't know, if she didn't show up to help, what would she say when the English lord asked her about it later

After much deliberation, she decided to continue observing from the shadows for now. With the Concealment Breathing Technique taught to her by Ying Zhu, she believed she could remain undetected.

If Chang Shengbo were to die at the hands of that man in black tonight, I would truthfully report it to Lord Ying. Even if Lord Ying blames me, it wouldn't be a death sentence, which is far better than recklessly going out to die!

If Chang Shengbo was lucky enough to escape, he would simply tell them that his signal was blocked and that he went looking for it. Even if the British master blamed him, at most he would be punished for dereliction of duty, which wouldn't be a big deal!

And at this moment, Chang Shengbo, after being struck by a bolt of lightning, was naturally both frightened and terrified. He knew that he had desperately tried to dodge, but was still struck on the top of his head by the lightning. This showed how precise Ye Chen's control over the lightning was!earlobes now resembled blood pearls, and her cheeks were like the blooming of a water lily, rosy and alluring.Nangong Ye's kiss went all the way down, arriving at Qing Xuan's most tender spot unexpect...
