Quick Transmigration: Still Life Fairy

Chapter 176 Those Forgotten Memories

The light from the teleportation array grew brighter and brighter until it stung people's eyes, before it gradually dimmed and disappeared.

Before the light had completely disappeared, a dark figure suddenly darted out of the teleportation array and arrived in front of Hades in the blink of an eye.

"Ouch——"

The dark figure opened its mouth and roared, its sharp canines aimed at Hades' wrist. This wasn't a vital spot, so the defenses were relatively weak, making it easier to launch a sneak attack.

Hades, after all, was the dignified ruler of the Western Underworld, and he didn't take such an ambush seriously. Just before the Howling Celestial Hound's fangs bit Hades' wrist, a small whirlwind suddenly rose from beneath Hades' feet, rapidly spinning around his body until it enveloped his entire body. The next moment, Hades appeared in another place.

As expected, the celestial dog missed its target.

"True Lord is a god after all, yet you ordered your pet to do such a despicable thing. You are a disgrace to your Eastern God Realm."

Hades looked in the direction of the teleportation array, his pupils already dark red like blood.

Erlang Shen, who had just been teleported over, was completely unaware of the situation and ignored him. Instead, he glanced around and finally fixed his gaze on Ying Qing, the strongest person on his side.

"You've activated this summoning talisman, what do you want with me?"

His face was cold, his gaze calm and unwavering, as if nothing could shake him. He had probably been in battle before coming here; his armor was still on, and he held a three-pointed double-edged spear in his hand. His third eye on his forehead was slightly closed, with a tiny slit open.

"Help me out, catch him!"

Anyone who has interacted with Erlang Shen knows his personality: cold and aloof, uninterested in many things. So when talking to him, just tell him what you need him to do without needing to explain too much.

Erlang Shen glanced at Hades, who was being pointed at by Ying Qing, and nodded slightly. His celestial hound, Xiaotian, who was connected to him by mind, howled again, lowered its body, and quickly darted away.

Hades gripped his weapon tightly, knowing he had lost all chance. Erlang Shen was roughly equal in strength to him; either of them joining the battle would tip the scales of victory in his favor. Moreover, the powerful Qingyan Shenjun before him was also formidable; Hades had now virtually lost all hope of winning.

but……

"Arrest me?" Hades' expression was full of disdain: "Hmph!"

The current situation might not be without a chance for him to escape. Hades' mind raced, and he made a decision almost instantly. He dodged the attack of the Howling Celestial Hound once again, and then quickly opened his mouth, spitting out a cloud of condensed black mist.

The mist was about the size of a basketball, and it looked no different from the mist Hades had spread before. The black smoke flowed slowly within a limited area, carrying an aura of death.

Ying Qing's brows furrowed almost immediately. He had never seen Hades use this black spherical mist before. The energy fluctuations on it were not significant, but it looked like Hades' trump card.

"Be careful."

Erlang Shen couldn't figure out what consequences this black spherical mist could cause. His instincts told him that it posed no threat to him, but adhering to the principle of caution, he still reminded Ying Qing.

Ying Qing nodded slightly. He, Erlang Shen, and Xiaotianquan were now positioned on three sides of Hades, forming a triangle around him. No matter which direction Hades tried to escape from, they could stop him immediately. Of course, it would be even better if Hades didn't try to escape. With Erlang Shen around, he was definitely destined to stay in the Eastern Divine Realm and serve his sentence in prison.

Hades naturally understood this situation, and he also saw an opportunity to escape, which is why he unleashed his trump card.

"Hmph! Useless, you can't catch me!" Hades' brows furrowed with a sinister aura, and he looked somewhat abnormal. "I miscalculated today. I originally wanted to capture a minor member of the Heavenly Evolution Clan to improve my strength. Now that I can't achieve my goal here, I'll at least take someone with me!"

His gaze passed over Ying Qing and landed on Yu Liu and Yan Ning behind Ying Qing.

Ying Qing's heart skipped a beat, and he almost immediately realized what Hades was planning. He moved swiftly and appeared in front of Yan Ning, his whole body on guard against Hades. He quickly turned around and shouted, "Lord Luo Hua, stop pretending! Take Yu Liu and Aning and go! Quickly!"

"Uh... Oh!" Sitting on the ground, the Luo Hua Divine Lord, who was curled up in a ball pretending to be weak, was suddenly called upon. He was embarrassed for a moment, but quickly agreed.

He pushed himself up from the ground with his hand, and stood up easily. He took two steps and reached Yan Ning. He grabbed Yan Ning by the collar and lifted him up: "Lord Taiming, please hold Xiao Liu'er tight. I'll take you away now!"

Little Willow? Yan Ning's expression shifted slightly. He felt a strange sense of familiarity with the name, and he instinctively knew that it referred to A Shang.

So Ah Shang's real name is Xiao Liu'er? I always felt that Ah Shang must be related to the Eastern Divine Realm, and now it seems that's indeed the case.

"Leave? I haven't agreed yet." Hades didn't take Ying Qing's protection of Yan Ning seriously. He dodged Erlang Shen's three-pointed double-edged spear and aimed his five fingers at the black mist that was floating in the air. With a slight twitch of his fingers, the mist was controlled and flew towards Yan Ning.

"Quick, let's go!"

Lord Luohua was truly not good at fighting, and Yu Liu and Yan Ning were both injured. Staying here would only be a hindrance. Hades had already set his sights on them, and if they didn't leave, they would only cause trouble for Ying Qing and the others. So, upon seeing the approaching black mist, Luohua immediately picked up Yan Ning from the ground, lifted Yu Liu into the air, and turned to run away.

Ying Qing, who was blocking their way, unfolded his folding fan to meet the oncoming black mist.

Hades smirked as he witnessed this.

"puff--"

The magic emitted by Ying Qing's folding fan pierced directly through the black mist. The mist collided with Ying Qing, making a slight sound, then dispersed, bypassing him and reforming before chasing after Yan Ning again, this time at a significantly increased speed.

Ying Qing raised her hand to check herself, and found nothing wrong with her body.

Seeing the black mist chasing after them again, Lord Luo Hua's eyes widened, and he immediately cowered: "Aiya! Erlang Zhenjun, save me!!!"

Erlang Shen, who was fighting Hades, paused slightly. Suddenly, the third eye on his forehead opened completely. He disappeared from the spot and reappeared in front of Luo Hua Shenjun. Just like Ying Qing before him, he condensed a spell in his hand and threw it at the black mist in front of him.
