Chapter 174 The Forgotten Holy Lord

"..."

Although Shendu is a fire demon, he has the most fiery and easily angered temper among the eight demons.

But I don't know why...

Upon hearing Xiaoyu's words and seeing her repeatedly slapping her own face with that extremely irritating expression...

Valon, his fists clenched tightly, felt he had never been so angry before! He wished he could grow three heads and six arms on the spot, grab Xiaoyu, and beat her until her head was a pig's head!

Despite this, having lost the twelve talismans and his original body, he could barely walk among humans, let alone fight, relying on Valmont. This meant that Valmont's power was reduced to less than one percent.

Faced with this obvious disadvantageous situation where even after exhausting all means, "Vallon" could not overcome the opponent's disadvantage, he could only frown and reach into his pocket to take out a small item.

Then, with all his might, he threw it forward!

"Hmph, Muda Muda!"

Faced with Valmont's final counterattack, Jade quickly used the enhanced physical attributes granted by the symbiote to accurately predict the flight path of the "pebble".

After confirming that the trajectory was ridiculously off track and that she couldn't even touch herself, Xiaoyu stood still with her hands on her hips, continuing to mock "Vallon" with unbridled confidence.

"Throwing stones is such a petty trick, it can't hurt me! Not to mention, you even missed! You're really pathetic, Holy Lord. Even if I stood here without moving, at this close range, you still couldn't hit me!"

However, as soon as Xiaoyu finished speaking, the astonished and terrified expressions of the four gang members, as well as the "spider-sense" that the symbiote copied when it replicated Riley's various skills, instantly made Xiaoyu feel a strong sense of crisis.

Guided by this instinctive warning, and without bothering to continue teasing "Vallon", he quickly turned around.

Like the four members of the gang, Xiaoyu stared wide-eyed in astonishment. She looked incredulously at the statue-like Holy Lord, who, in a flash of light, swiftly broke free of his seal, his feet planted firmly on the floor, and he was free once more!

So, it turns out "Vallon" wasn't thrown off course...

Instead, he threw the Rat Talisman he was carrying to the statue of the Holy Lord! This was to ensure that even if the Holy Lord didn't collect all twelve talismans, he could regain his freedom and quickly boost his own forces!

As for how this rat-shaped talisman came about...

It's important to know that when Lope cast protective spells on the twelve charms, the Rat and Tiger charms were the primary targets of protection due to their special nature.

This meant that even Valon, a second-time player, couldn't pinpoint the exact whereabouts of the two charms before crucial events like the auction house or the pie-eating contest.

However, the inclusion of the Tiger Tally in the pagoda was likely an accident. Prior to this, no one knew how the Tiger Tally came to be.

Auction houses are different. Due to the nature of their work, they usually accumulate enough items before selling them all at once.

In other words, even if the auction hasn't officially started yet, the pedestal inlaid with the rat talisman may already be in the auction house's warehouse.

This allowed Valon, who frequently sent ninja soldiers to infiltrate the auction house's warehouse for a thorough search, to obtain the Rat Talisman right after the Black Hand Gang's four members left!

Well, of course, this doesn't rule out the possibility that the Black Hand Gang's four members harbored rebellious intentions, which were discovered by the Black Qi, who then secretly fueled the flames, helping "Vallon" and further strengthening the villains' forces.

Regardless, the appearance of the Rat Talisman caught Jade off guard, allowing Valmont to successfully turn the tide!

"Who told you I missed, little girl... Look, I threw it pretty accurately, didn't I?"

Therefore, seeing the plan proceeding smoothly, the Rat Talisman automatically activated its effect upon touching the statue of Shendu, merging into the statue under the impact of the external force. This allowed Shendu, who had been sealed away, to regain his freedom.

The previously somewhat nervous "Vallon" instantly gained confidence. After giving Jade a sarcastic retort, he opened his arms wide and shouted triumphantly.

"Charge! My good brothers! Burn them all to ashes! Let them know what happens when they offend us!"

"Don't do anything reckless, you evil dragon!"

Now, it was the turn of the four members of the Black Hand Gang to panic.

The simple-minded Rasu stepped forward, grabbed "Valon" by the neck, and threatened the Holy Lord with bluster but no substance.

"If you dare to make a single move, I'll kill him right now!"

Of course, given how much they valued Valon, it was clearly impossible for Rasu to actually kill "Valon".

They just wanted to use Valon as a hostage to delay Shendu's actions a little.

"Whatever, I don't care... Since you all like Valmont so much, then let him be buried with you!"

However, to Rasu's utter surprise...

Even with Valon being held hostage, Shendu showed no hesitation. Instead, with a sinister grin, he acted almost instantly, firing two beams of heat from his crimson eyes directly at Valon's head!

This is because the Holy Lord saw through the Black Hand Gang's four-man plan, so he deliberately did the opposite, with the idea of ​​"besieging Wei to rescue Zhao", forcing Rasu to eat the heat vision of the Pig Talisman.

Of course not...

Just as the Holy Lord said before, as He Himself said.

In the eyes of the Holy Lord, this world belongs only to Him.

Even if our current partner were a "Holy Lord" from another time and space, we shouldn't even think about getting a single benefit from it!

So much so that the moment the seal was broken, Valmont's usefulness to Shendu was greatly reduced. In fact, because Valmont was also Shendu, he should have known all of Shendu's plans, and in Shendu's eyes, Valmont became a new threat!

Therefore, just like some scumbag groups, their first act after getting ashore is often to kill off their beloved...

Not long ago, Shendu was working closely with Valon like a brother. Now, the first thing he wants to do is take advantage of the fact that Valon is not very powerful and kill him first!

Once Valmont is dead, then we can deal with the rest of these ants...

Then this world will be mine again!

Thinking of this, the Holy Lord's eyes burned even more intensely. His gaze was so intense and unbearable that he desperately wanted to see "Vallon's" body pierced by his burning gaze, instantly killing him!

However, Shendu underestimated Valmont's importance to the four members of the Black Hand Gang.

In that split second, facing the intense gaze, the usually timid and cowardly Lasu did not hesitate at all.

As if it were purely out of instinct, he pulled "Vallon" into his arms and turned around to act as "Vallon's" human shield.

Using his broad back, he took the brunt of the blow that was powerful enough to melt metal and break iron, instead of "Valon"!
