Chapter 150 - Half an hour of fighting

Cooperation?

......

Heh.

Jiang Luo's curse was swallowed in his throat before it was uttered, and he said expressionlessly, "Yes, cooperation."

Chi You said swimmingly, "Go on."

Jiang Luo said, "The person you are looking for is the predestined person, right?"

Chi You raises an eyebrow.

"But you don't want to fight him just yet," Jiang Luo clasped his arms, his eyes scrutinising, "He's the man who gave your Ikari family their full-blooded ghost tattoo?"

"Oh, you eavesdropped on our conversation," Chi You realised, "with your rat? No wonder you were targeting Ge Wuchen earlier."

Jiang Luo ignored his words of distraction and continued, "Your goal is to kill the Fatalist, and coincidentally, I see that he is also very unpleasant. We have the same goal, so let's put aside our enmity for the time being and finish off the predestined man first."

Chi You narrowed his eyes, "Is the person you want to kill the most the Fatalist or me?"

Jiang Luo wanted to ask him where he got the nerve to ask that, and sneered, "The fatalist is much more likeable than you."

"That's heartbreaking," Chi You's expression was nevertheless one of satisfaction, "What do you want to do about it?"

Jiang Luo rolled his eyes, "How about for a moment, why do you say that now is not the time to go up against the Fates?"

The evil spirit did not say so, but Jiang Luo did so with great enthusiasm.

"Because you can't beat him yet? Or have something vital in his hands?" The dark-haired youth, who had only just been bullied, completely forgot the memory of the not-so-wonderful play from earlier as he circled lightly on his feet, bouncing on the edge of the evil spirit's patience, "I've never seen the ways of a predestined man before, and he doesn't look young for his age, but his appearance is young. Could it be that he is ageless? But how in the world can anyone be ageless?"

"Whether he's human or something else, he's strong. Of course, you're strong too," Jiang Luo smiled skinnily at Chi You and continued, "but your soul was split in four and refined into four Yuan Tianzhu. You got two, I have another one here, where could the last one be?"

"I guess it's in the hands of the Predestined One," Jiang Luo asked himself, "he's the man behind the mirror world, and in order to show me your true nature, to know that you are the source of evil, he specially made up a fictional Chi You as a teenager. But he also knew that if it was just a fictional Chi You, then no matter how ruthless the Chi You was, it would not resonate with me because I understood that it was a fake You. If he wanted me to feel the desire to kill you, he needed to make the Chi You in the mirror seem real enough, so real that I could see him in the mirror as the real you - the Chi You I spent a week with in the mirror world was the last Yuan Tianzhu, I think."

The evil spirit looked at the eloquent Jiang Luo, as if he saw stars in his eyes.

The dark-haired youth grunted, "If the Chi You in the mirror is really another Yuan Tianzhu, then he is also considered part of you, the predestined man along with your reaction are calculated in the bureau, he is familiar with you, although I do not know who he is, he will ...... "

Can smith.

Jiang Luo suddenly touches the yin and yang ring, rubbing the gold inscriptions clearly visible on the top, and his eyes sink.

The soul of Chi You was refined into Yuan Tianzhu by the Fates, wasn't it?

No, it's more than that ......

Jiang Luo suddenly thought of the death of Chi You.

Chi You was indirectly killed by the original owner, who was motivated to kill Chi You by a forbidden technique of depriving people of their spiritual bodies that he happened to read about on an internal website.

The Qi and Chi families are not the ones who gave the original owner the forbidden arts, otherwise they would not have believed Jiang Luo's made-up story that he was Chi You's lover and would take revenge for Chi You later.

It is likely that the one who gave him the forbidden spell was the Fatalist.

Jiang Luo's eyes darkened.

The Fatalist ...... The Fatalist ......

Did his coming into this world have anything to do with the predestined people?

And why is this body almost identical to his real-world body?

If it's all a bureau of the predestined ......

Jiang Luo pulls up a smile of uncertainty.

Jiang Luo really has to thank him for bringing Jiang Luo to a more exciting world, seeing Chi You, the evil ghost that Jiang Luo liked so much but progressed to dislike each other, and making some lovely and kind friends. But apart from that, Jiang Luo feels that the Fates are not really to blame for their eventual death.

He towers over us as if he is in control, as if everyone is nothing more than ants crawling along on rails in the hands of the predestined, and who can like that feeling?

Jiang Luo returned to his senses, "You are not dealing with him, perhaps because of Yuan Tianzhu. I need you to cooperate with me in fooling the Fatal Man, I want to explore his secrets and if I have Yuan Tianzhu or any other information, I will share it with you."

The Fatal Man was unfathomable, but Chi You didn't think Jiang Luo wouldn't be able to do it; the terms of the partnership were in his favour, and with a smile on his face he nodded in agreement, "How do you want me to work with you?"

Jiang Luo also smiled politely, "First, you'd have to be beaten half to death by me."

There was a pause in the arc of the evil spirit's smile.

He turned back slowly as the three daggers flying in mid-air behind him, Jin Guang, glinted at him.

In the next instant, dagger after dagger plunged hard into his body in the blink of an eye.

The villain's suit turned to be soaked in blood as he looked at the cryptic dagger on his body and turned back to Jiang Luo.

Jiang Luo whistled and narrowed his eyes with a smile as he walked slowly over to Chi You, reached out with two fingers and tucked the sharp corner of the white fabric that sprouted from Chi You's chest down, "Mr. Chi."

His face was still flushed with the flush of love he had just felt, but he had stepped out of it, the slow curl of his lips, the flow of his eyes, the youth re-donning his poisonous thorns, his head hanging slightly as he chuckled softly next to the evil spirit's ear, "Don't stain my underwear with the blood that will flow later."

"I'll give it to you this time," he said with a smile, "but next time, I'll destroy all the clothes I've temporarily stored with you."

With that, Jiang Luo pats Chi You on the shoulder and walks off into the black mist.

As he walked, he beckoned, and the two daggers returned to his Yin-Yang ring. One of the daggers thrust into the evil spirit's arm abruptly exploded into a cipher beneath the evil spirit's flesh, breaking its arm to the ground.

Blood spurted out and splattered on the handsome, pale face of the evil ghost. The evil ghost looked down at his breast pocket and suddenly laughed crazily, "Hahahahaha ......"

The last dagger returned to Jiang Luo's hand only after he had severely wounded the evil spirit.

Jiang Luo stood at the edge of the black mist and stopped. He looked at himself and decided that the wounds he had received were not enough and took out his knife again to make several cuts on himself.

But Chi You stepped up to him and wiped the blood from his body on his clothes and face.

Jiang Luo paused, unexpectedly, "Thank you."

The evil spirit slowly wiped the blood from his face like a handsome and hideous murderer as he smiled gently, "No need."

Beyond the black fog.

Jiang Luo and Chi You have been fighting in the black fog for almost half an hour.

Feng Li had already waited impatiently, and after another thirty seconds, he walked straight down the stairs, not bothering with the host.

Yu Guang, the funeral shop owner, swept carefully past the Fatalist, and after seeing that he did not stop him, he too followed Feng Li and walked quickly towards the black mist.

The beavers were also worried about their master.

Unlike Ge Wuchen, who despises Jiang Luo, or Li Sha, who is ignorant and fearless, the Beaver, who has been victimised by Jiang Luo, knows exactly how difficult this human can be to deal with. He will confuse his master in any way he can, and then strike at him when he is unprepared, leaving him unguarded.

But even with all the worry, the Beaver couldn't get into the black fog.

But he couldn't get in, nor would he allow anyone else in to help Jiang Luo against his master.

Ge Wuchen and Hua Beaver were about to stop Feng Li and the funeral shop owner when they heard Li Sha say in surprise, "The boss and his pretty brother are out!"

The two men rushed back to look.

The black mist dissipated to reveal the evil spirit and the human inside. They looked like they had been in a vicious battle, the evil spirit had broken an arm and his body was covered in sludge and wounds of all sizes. The human looked equally wretched, his head sweating, his face wet and the ends of his eyes burning red. He was covering the wounds on his body, and his face, which had little expression, showed a few moments of pain, clearly at the end of his rope.

Ji Yaozi was horrified: " Jiang Luo!"

Ge Wuchen and Flower Beaver both blushed equally and quickly stepped in front of Chi You, "Master."

Feng Li looked Jiang Luo up and down quickly, the corners of his lips pressed down and he gave Chi You a cold look, his murderous intent surfacing, but knowing that Jiang Luo's injuries could not be delayed any longer, he tried to carry Jiang Luo across the room and leave.

Jiang Luo stepped back to avoid it, smiled with pale lips and said faintly, "Sir, I am injured, but not to such an extent that I can walk on my own."

After saying this, he did not wait for Feng Li's reaction and walked slowly towards the Custodian and Daoist Wei He step by step.

His pace was slow, two or three times slower than he normally moved. Ji Yaozi guessed that he had also suffered an injury to his leg, after all, as he was walking, and he thought he saw a bruise on Jiang Luo's ankle.

Ji Yaozi tried to sigh, but Feng Li was right next to him, so he held his breath and looked back at Chi You and smacked his lips, "I can't believe you guys are fighting so hard."

He and Feng Li know all about Jiang Luo and Chi You's past, but others do not. They used to be a loving couple, but now they're in this situation, which is a shame.

Behind them Chi You is still watching Jiang Luo's back.

The reason why Jiang Luo walks so slowly is known only to him and Chi You.

For the young man who is now being cared for by his elders and bravely fighting evil spirits is not wearing pants inside his trousers.

Ge Wuchen and Hua Beaver followed suit and looked towards Jiang Luo. Ge Wuchen was still shocked that Jiang Luo had managed to hurt Chi You, but when he saw that Jiang Luo was clearly more seriously injured, he was relieved, "Master Jiang is a match for you. But Master Jiang's injuries should be more serious than yours, and you need not worry, the mountain top is the residence of Lian's family, they will heal Master Jiang."

The Beaver picked up Chi You's arm, "Master, your arm."

Chi You didn't seem to hear their words, just watched Jiang Luo disappear from his eyes step by step.

"For the second time," he whispered, " Jiang Luo, Jiang Luo ......"

The name seems to have taken on a special feel.

Li Sha ran up to them with her seventeenth lollipop of the night and looked blearily at Chi You, "Boss, is pretty brother just going to leave? When is he going to join us and become my partner?"

"Your partner?" Chi You snorted, disdainfully, "How could he be your partner?"

The evil spirit's smile grew higher as he said pleasantly, "His rival, lover, partner, of course, can only be me."

Li Sha's mouth opened wide and the lollipop fell out of her mouth.

......?

That's not what you said at first, is it boss?
