I’ve Led the Villain Astray, How Do I Fix It?

Chapter 381

Xu Zirong, who had just walked not far from the gate of the courtyard, seemed to feel something. He looked back at the small courtyard that was gradually fading and suppressed his doubtful feelings.

The three made their way to main street again, but this time, they didn’t waste time in the rest of the house.

Although this city looked weird, just like what Xu Ziyan said, they were there not to solve puzzles, but to hunt for treasures. What happened in the city had nothing to do with them at all (or did it?)

Walking through the main street, they soon came to the street where the secret path marked on the map was located.

This street was slightly narrower than the main one, but it’s not much different. From its layout, the buildings seemed to be relatively large shops, with at least three floors or more.

Their destination was a small four-story stone building. Although the signboard hanging on the gate hadn’t decayed yet, they could no longer read the writing on it.

On both sides of the small building, there were two two-story bamboo buildings, which seemed to be teahouses. Xu Ziyan was not too close to those two places. After all, it was marked with green traps on the map. Only a fool would walk over without suspecting.

“What do you think?” Xu Ziyan asked the other two.

“I didn’t feel anything.” Tianle touched his chin.

Xu Zirong frowned slightly, “It feels like something is wrong, but I can’t tell you what it is in specific.”

Xu Ziyan shrugged, “well, it seems that there is only one last solution.”

“What solution?” Tianle asked curiously.

Xu Ziyan gave him a blank look, “what else can it be? Go over and try.”

Tianle:……

“What kind of solution is this?” He sneered.

Xu Ziyan spread his hands, “then what do you think? I can’t see anything unusual, but the map clearly says that there is a trap here. If we don’t go over there and have a look, do you expect the trap to jump out and greet you?”

The corner of Tianle’s mouth twitched, “then who should try?”

Xu Ziyan looked at him as if he’s looking at an idiot, “Zirong’s blood monster will never let you pass.”

Tianle snorted twice, “of course I know you won’t let me pass. I just hadn’t thought of Zirong’s blood monster!”

“Only my brother can call me blood monster. I don’t know you that well. Please call me little cultivator Xu.” Xu Zirong reacted coldly.

Tianle:……

Damn! How can we still be patient friends? How come I can’t even call you whatever names I want?!

Xu Zirong smiled coldly, “never assume that you can call me whatever you want just because we are both sick. Do I even know you that well?”

Tianle: Damn, I will just bear with the fact that you have serious clinginess disease!

The two were trying to fight with their eyes again.

“Okay, Zirong, let’s do it.” Xu Ziyan watched the two maniacs speechlessly, and rubbed his forehead with a headache.

“Okay, brother.”

As soon as Xu Ziyan opened his mouth, Xu Zirong quickly changed from the cold mode to the obedient mode, and everything proved that he was an obedient kid, including his tone of voice and his expression.

Tianle thought sadly, “so it all turns out that my acting skills are more inferior, that’s why I’m less of a maniac?”

Xu Ziyan was already unable to complain about his actor brother, anyway, as long as he didn’t delay the real business, he could do whatever he liked…

Soon, a drop of blood essence bounced out from Xu Zirong’s fingertips, and turned into a tiger-shaped blood monster.

Under Xu Zirong’s order, the tiger-shaped blood monster cautiously approached one of the bamboo buildings, wandered around for a few times and didn’t react.

It slowly walked to the front of another bamboo building, swayed around a few times, yet still didn’t respond.

It turned to look at Xu Zirong, and Xu Zirong turned to look at his brother.

“Strange, there shouldn’t be no response.” Xu Ziyan was suspicious.

Tianle rolled his eyes and said to Xu Zirong, “let your blood monster go around in front of our target.”

Xu Zirong gave the order, and the tiger-shaped blood monster strolled to the door of the small stone building, but before he stepped on the steps of the door, the two bamboo buildings on both sides suddenly made a loud noise, then the two bamboo buildings stood up unsteadily.

Xu Ziyan couldn’t help shouting, “Damn! It’s a monster again!”

(Xu Ziyan: ==Huh? Why did I say ‘again’?)

They saw the two bamboo buildings standing up staggeringly, and the originally stable small building turned into a giant in the stunned crowd.

“What the hell is this?!” Tianle was stunned. After living for hundreds of years, he thought he was well-informed, but it was the first time in his life that he saw a bamboo building growing into a monster!

“No matter what it is, they are already coming.” Xu Zirong said with a frown.

Because of the sudden incident, the monsters of the two bamboo buildings deformed very quickly, and the blood monster was crushed into blood foam by the opponent’s huge palm before it even had time to escape.

Judging from the last thoughts sent by the blood monster, it was not clear what other abilities the two bamboo buildings have, but they were extremely powerful in terms of strength.

Without further explanation, Xu Ziyan pulled Xu Zirong and ran back along the original route, attacking continuously while running. Unfortunately, when his Thunder Arrow hit the two bamboo buildings, although it could cause damage to the opponent, it was still a very small damage as the monster was simply too big.

Moreover, these two bamboo buildings were not made of flesh and blood, and Xu Ziyan couldn’t use much of the power of Purple Night Divine Thunder. After calculation, Xu Ziyan, who had an extremely strong attack power, could only display a third of his strength.

When Xu Zirong’s blood monster faced the bamboo building, it couldn’t break through the opponent’s defense at all, and the blood vine could barely stop its footsteps. It was broken by the opponent’s huge strength, breaking inch by inch.

“Roar!” The two bamboo buildings roared crazily, and their four thick bamboo arms waved back and forth in the air, almost knocking Xu Ziyan and the others down several times.

Fortunately, Aurora’s flexibility was far superior to those of ordinary flying swords, and Tianle’s escape skills had already been fully used, so after a lot of chasing, they escaped from that street without any risk.

“Huh! Stop…” Xu Ziyan noticed that the angry roar of the bamboo monster seemed to be gradually receding, so he stopped quickly.

Looking back, he noticed that the two bamboo monsters were waving their fists angrily, and they stopped at the entrance of that street.

“They don’t seem to be able to get out.” Xu Zirong noticed that the two bamboo monsters seemed to be imprisoned in that street by a mysterious force. No matter how angrily they shouted, they still couldn’t break through the confinement.

“It seems that they are indeed imprisoned.” Tianle also observed very carefully: “I’ll go and see if they really can’t get out.”

As soon as Tianle finished speaking, he flew in front of the two bamboo monsters. Of course, he didn’t get too close for safety’s sake, leaving enough room for himself to escape.

He first scratched his head at the bamboo monster, who roared angrily and waved his arms to catch him, but the imprisoning force completely restricted their bodies inside the street, and they couldn’t enter the main street at all.

Tianle thought for a while, then yelled at the bamboo monster, but the two bamboo monsters didn’t show any signs of agitation after Tianle’s insults.

Tianle scratched his head and he suddenly had an idea. He spat at those two guys first, then took off his pants and patted his butt at them…

Xu Ziyan & Xu Zirong: … == I can’t bear to look directly at him, is this guy really a nascent soul cultivator?

Obviously, such a humiliating move was completely understandable.

The two bamboo monsters became obviously angrier. Not only did their roars become louder, but the movements of their waving giant hands also slowed down. Judging from the position, although it broke through the restrictions of the street with its right hand, it became unbelievably slow.

Immediately afterwards, a thunderbolt struck the head of one of the bamboo monsters.

With a loud bang, the bamboo monster fell to the ground and there were many cracks on the scorched floor, which were many times thicker than the marks left by Xu Ziyan’s lightning arrows.

The bamboo monster was seriously injured, but judging from his constantly swollen body, it seemed to be still alive.

The other bamboo monster seemed to be taken aback. It was furious, but it didn’t dare to try to break through that layer of confinement no matter what.

It simply stared resentfully at Tianle who was not far away, and Tianle looked at him unmoved. After a while, he furiously dragged its companion’s body, and slowly left the sight of Xu Ziyan and the others.

Tianle flew back and shrugged his shoulders with a relaxed look, “I have tried it all, it seems that they really can’t break through the street. By the way…what kind of look is that?” At the end, Tianle was staring at Xu Zirong with dissatisfaction, who really had no issues showing his look of disgust!

Xu Zirong raised his eyebrows, slowly pushed the corner of his mouth upwards with his fingers, and put on a weird smiling expression insincerely, “Is this expression okay for you?”

Tianle:……

He turned his face away, deciding not to talk with this maniac anymore!

They discussed for a while and decided to try again. Although it seemed difficult to kill the two bamboo buildings, one of them was seriously injured now. If they distracted the other, they might have a chance to enter the secret path directly.

It was Xu Zirong’s blood monster that took the lead, but this time, Xu Zirong released the little blood rat.

The tiger-shaped blood monster proved that under the brutal attack of the bamboo monster, blood monsters wouldn’t be of much use. It’d be better to use a small one, as it might even bring surprising effects.

Facts have proved that a small one could be useful. When Xu Ziyan saw that huge bamboo monster perking its butt, trying to catch the blood rat scurrying back and forth with its thick fingers, he really couldn’t help laughing.

“It seems that this blood rat is pretty useful.” Xu Ziyan touched his chin and bumped his little crazy brother with his shoulders, “is this the one that did the pole dance last time?”
