I am a fairy in Journey to the West

Chapter 421 Survival from desperate situation

Kitano Tenbu found Lu Hanzhi, who was being watched by three deacons from the Kitano Department. Upon seeing Kitano Tenbu arrive, the three deacons immediately stood up and bowed.

Kitano Tenbu waved his hand, then stepped forward and bowed to Lu Hanzhi, saying, "Fairy Hanzhi, how have you been staying here lately?"

Lu Hanzhi smiled and said, "The accommodations are good, the food is good, and everything is very comfortable."

Kitano Tenbu nodded and said, "Then, what has the fairy thought about the matter I mentioned?"

Lu Hanzhi thought for a moment and said, "Chief Beiye, you overestimate me. Although I know some medical skills, they are just some unorthodox methods I learned from the Holy Mother of Lishan. They are not of much use to your tribe."

Kitano Tenbu laughed heartily and said, "Fairy, you are too kind. Your ability to cure the Yuntian tribe's hereditary illness is enough to prove that your medical skills are unparalleled in the world. No one in the entire Beiju Luzhou can compare to you."

Hearing this, Lu Hanzhi sighed. She shouldn't have treated the Yuntian tribe's family illness in the first place; now she was stuck in this mess.

Because Lu Hanzhi had done them a favor, the Yuntian tribe did not force her to stay. Instead, the Beiye tribe heard the news and abducted Lu Hanzhi on the way.

Lu Hanzhi pondered for a moment, then said resolutely, "Please, Chief Beiye, do not force me to do something I cannot accept."

Seeing Lu Hanzhi's resolute attitude, Kitano Tenbu smiled and stopped pressuring her. Instead, he said, "It's like this. Just now, our manor was attacked by thieves. The thieves used some kind of sorcery and injured some of our clansmen. I would like to ask Fairy Hanzhi to take a look."

“I’m not going.” Lu Hanzhi said, her tone a mix of softness and firmness, shaking her head. “I’m just a prisoner from the Kitano tribe.”

Kitano Tenbu paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "Fairy, you know you're just a prisoner of my Kitano tribe, so you shouldn't be so tough."

Lu Hanzhi looked at Kitano Tenbu and said, "So what? You can just kill me."

Kitano Tenbu chuckled, glanced at Lu Hanzhi from head to toe, and then said, "I won't kill you, but I think you are quite charming, and every smile and frown of yours is very endearing."

Lu Hanzhi's expression changed; this was the first time she had seen Kitano Tenbu reveal such thoughts.

"If I were to force myself on you and take Fairy Hanzhi as my concubine, I wonder what she would say?" Kitano Tenbu said with a smile.

Lu Hanzhi immediately looked wary and said, "Chief Beiye, you are also a highly respected chieftain, so please don't act recklessly."

Kitano Tenbu smiled but did not answer, only saying, "Then, regarding the matter of treating my people's illnesses..."

Lu Hanzhi said, "You can go and take a look, but I'm not sure I can cure it."

Kitano Tenbu laughed heartily and said, "I believe in Fairy Hanzhi's medical skills; she will surely find a way."

Soon, Lu Hanzhi followed Kitano Tenmu to the Kitano tribe's medical clinic. Amidst the ruins, the Kitano tribesmen who had been injured by Wang Lang's prophecy were lying on makeshift beds in the open air.

Lu Hanzhi stepped forward to examine them one by one, while Kitano Tenbu and the others waited quietly to the side.

After an unknown amount of time, Lu Hanzhi returned with a grave expression. Kitano Tenbu asked, "Fairy Hanzhi, how are they?"

Lu Hanzhi shook her head and frowned, saying, "On the surface, they have symptoms of illness, but in reality, they are under a curse."

"A curse?" Kitano Tenbu and the others' expressions changed. "What kind of curse?"

Lu Hanzhi shook her head and said, "It's not clear yet, but this curse is very strange, and I have no way to break it."

Kitano Tenbu, still somewhat skeptical, stared intently at Lu Hanzhi and said, "I beg Fairy Hanzhi to use her practical combat skills to help my Kitano tribe overcome this predicament."

Lu Hanzhi said helplessly, "Chief Beiye, I'm not lying. I really can't do anything about this curse. Even if you force yourself on me in front of everyone right now, there's nothing I can do."

Now it was Kitano Tenbu's turn to change his expression. He glanced quickly to both sides and then asked, "Fairy, you really can't solve this?"

“There’s really no way to untie it,” Lu Hanzhi said. “The one who tied the knot must untie it; we need to find the person who cast the curse.”

“Ah, this…” Kitano Tenbu was stunned and said, “But I have already killed that person.”

"Killed?" Lu Hanzhi was also stunned, then shook her head violently and said, "Impossible. If the person who cast the curse dies, the curse will be lifted. The fact that the curse is still in effect means that the person who cast the curse is not dead."

Kitano Tenbu frowned, and the next moment he summoned all the elders to his side and said, "That thief is definitely still within the territory of my Kitano tribe. Now, each of you take a thousand of your tribe's warrior soldiers and divide them into six groups. You must capture that thief alive."

"Yes," the six elders replied, bowing.

But just then, a voice rang out from not far away, "You people from the Kitano tribe are all fucking sick, seriously sick!"

Kitano Tenbu looked up abruptly and saw that the person he had killed with a single palm strike not long ago had returned and was standing right in front of him, the only difference being that this time he wasn't wearing a mask.

'Bang' 'Bang'

Before Kitano Tenbu could make a move, he heard a series of thuds around him. Turning his head to look around, he found that apart from him and the six elders, all the other clansmen, including the deacons, had fallen to the ground, breathing rapidly, their faces flushed, and unconscious.

Kitano Tenbu and the six elders felt a chill run down their spines, but soon a surge of blood energy rose around them, directly dispelling Wang Lang's 'prophecy technique' power.

Seeing this, Wang Lang was also taken aback. "Damn, he's got some skills! Time to get out of here!" With that, he turned to leave.

Just then, Kitano Tenbu and the others made their move. They stepped forward and rushed out, covering more than ten feet in a flash, surrounding Wang Lang completely.

"Shut his mouth first." Kitano Tenbu, being the most experienced, raised his hand and struck Wang Lang's throat with a gust of wind, immediately silencing him.

Then an elder stepped forward and delivered a flying kick, knocking Wang Lang to the ground.

"Capture him alive!" Kitano Tenbu shouted.

Wang Lang was quickly bound hand and foot. As Wang Lang was captured, Kitano Tenbu turned around and laughed, "Fairy Hanzhi, this person has also been captured alive. What should we do?"

At this point, Kitano Tenbu's eyes widened, and he asked, "Where is Fairy Hanzhi?"

The elders exchanged bewildered glances, looked around, and then shook their heads, saying, "We don't know."

"Not good." Kitano Tenbu looked at the Kitano clansmen lying on the ground and knew that Lu Hanzhi had taken the opportunity to escape because no one was watching over them. "You keep an eye on this person and make sure he doesn't open his mouth to speak. I'm going to chase after Fairy Hanzhi."

"Yes," the six elders replied.

Meanwhile, Lu Hanzhi took advantage of the chaos to escape from the Kitano tribe, but she could only try to gather some magic power in her feet to escape.

Just as Lu Hanzhi ran out of the territory of Beiye Buzong City, Beiye Tianwu's voice came from behind: "Fairy Hanzhi, why did you leave without saying goodbye?"

Kitano Tenbu was, after all, the patriarch of the Kitano tribe, and his strength was extremely formidable in the Northern Continent, a place where people cultivated their physical bodies.

He took a single step that covered dozens of feet, and in the blink of an eye, he arrived in front of Lu Hanzhi.

Lu Hanzhi's face paled, and she said, "Clan Chief Beiye, why are you pushing me so far?" Beiye Tianwu said, "I didn't let you go, how dare you leave on your own? You're really disrespecting me."

"I'll give you face." A chilling voice rang out, and then a sword light had already reached Kitano Tenbu's eyes.

Kitano Tenbu was startled and hurriedly leaped back, but the sword light followed closely and arrived in an instant.

Kitano Tenbu remained calm, raised his right hand and grabbed a sharp sword, preventing it from advancing any further. Then he kicked the person in front of him away.

The man groaned, spun through the air, and crashed to the ground. Lu Hanzhi looked closely and saw that he was a Taoist priest wearing a Taoist robe.

Knowing that there were no Taoists in Beiju Luzhou, Lu Hanzhi quickly stepped forward to help the Taoist up, asking with concern, "Taoist Master, are you alright?"

The Taoist priest spat out a mouthful of blood, turned his head to look at Lu Hanzhi, and his eyes lit up immediately. He quickly wiped the blood and said, "It's alright, beautiful lady, what's your name?"

At this moment, Kitano Tenbu threw his long sword to the ground and then flew straight towards Lu Hanzhi and the Taoist priest.

As a gust of wind swept in, Kitano Tenbu was already upon him. Just then, a whirlwind suddenly swept in from both sides, and with two whooshing sounds, it sent Kitano Tenbu flying.

Kitano Tenbu was blown more than ten feet away. After finally regaining his balance, he looked up and saw a man holding a feather fan standing there.

Kitano Tenbu frowned and asked, "Do you two have a grudge against me?"

"No," said the man holding the feather fan.

Kitano Tenbu then asked, "Do you have a grudge against my Kitano clan?"

“No,” the man with the feather fan said again.

Kitano Tenbu paused for a moment, then asked, "Since we have no grudge, why did you two attack me?"

"I don't like you." The Taoist priest stood up and said, "A grown man bullying a weak woman, aren't you ashamed?"

Kitano Tenbu laughed loudly, then pointed at Lu Hanzhi and said, "A weak woman? Ask her, is she a weak woman?"

Upon hearing this, the two turned to look at Lu Hanzhi, who quickly cupped her hands and said, "Thank you for your help, fellow Daoists. My name is Lu Hanzhi, and I am a wandering immortal from Xiniu Hezhou."

"Lu Hanzhi?" The two were stunned for a moment, then exclaimed with delight, "You are the Fairy Hanzhi, Lu Hanzhi?"

Lu Hanzhi was stunned, looking at the two of them with a puzzled expression, and then asked cautiously, "Do you two know me?"

"Hahaha," the Taoist priest laughed, "It's like finding a needle in a haystack, only to have it come to us effortlessly. Now we really have a reason to make our move."

Lu Hanzhi was taken aback, and looked at the two of them with confusion, saying, "What do you two mean by that?"

"Oh," said the man with the feather fan. "Don't be afraid, we're here to save you."

"Save me?" Lu Hanzhi asked in confusion, "Do you two fellow Daoists know me?"

"I don't know you," the Taoist priest said. "But we've come here on a mission to rescue you."

"A mission?" Lu Hanzhi was even more confused. "Who gave you the mission to rescue me?"

The Taoist priest shook his head and said, "Then it is naturally n."

The man with the feather fan quickly interrupted, saying, "We don't know who it is either. That person just asked us to take you to the foot of Mount Heng in the north."

Upon hearing this, Lu Hanzhi immediately understood. Without a doubt, she had been captured on her way to accept the invitation to Mount Heng in the North, so the Northern Mountain Divine Palace must have entrusted these immortals to rescue her.

"I see," Lu Hanzhi said. "Then I'll have to trouble you two fellow Daoists."

Seeing the three chatting as if no one else was around and completely disregarding him, Kitano Tenbu was furious. "You want to save her? Did you even ask for my fists?"

The Taoist priest laughed and said, "What kind of nonsense is that fist of yours?" Before he could finish the sentence, he was killed by a single punch.

Seeing the Taoist priest being smashed into a pulp by Kitano Tenbu's punch, Lu Hanzhi couldn't help but exclaim, "Fellow Daoist!" Then she saw the pile of pulp turn into a white light and disappear.

On the contrary, the man with the feather fan next to him was not flustered at all. He waved his feather fan twice, and in an instant, a fiery whirlwind rose from under Kitano Tenbu's feet.

Kitano Tenbu was swept into the air by the fire whirlwind, and then his whole body was instantly engulfed by flames.

Only Kitano Tenbu's scream came from mid-air, and then Kitano Tenbu was seen flying wildly through the air with the fire whirlwind, finally crashing down the cliff hundreds of feet away.

The man with the feather fan shaded his eyes and glanced down. He saw a naked man, completely black, but whose extremely muscular physique was still clearly visible, suddenly leap up from below the cliff.

Needless to say, the man was Kitano Tenbu. His skin and flesh were charred black. He only glanced back at the man with the feather fan before running away.

"They can't even be burned to death?" the man with the feather fan muttered, watching Kitano Tenbu flee.

Lu Hanzhi, standing behind him, said, "Fellow Daoist, this fellow Daoist..."

The man with the feather fan glanced back and laughed, "Don't worry, he won't die."

As soon as the man with the feather fan finished speaking, a rustling sound came from the forest. Lu Hanzhi turned around and saw that the Taoist priest had darted out of the forest again.

The Taoist priest rushed over, asking, "Where's that old bastard?"

Lu Hanzhi was so shocked she couldn't speak; she had clearly witnessed him being beaten to death.
The man with the feather fan said, "I chased him away. That old bastard can only use magic attacks; physical attacks can't hurt him."

"Oh?" The Taoist priest stepped forward, picked up his sword, and said, "So that's how it is. No wonder my sword energy couldn't hurt him."

At this moment, Lu Hanzhi stared blankly at the Taoist priest and said, "Weren't you dead?"

"Haha, this humble Taoist priest is not so easily killed." After saying that, the Taoist priest cupped his hands to Lu Hanzhi and said, "My name is Wuchenzi." Then he pointed to the man with the feather fan and said, "His name is Kong Liang."

Lu Hanzhi quickly bowed and said, "So it's fellow Daoists Wuchenzi and Kong Liang. Hanzhi thanks you both for saving me."

Haha, not at all.

Wuchenzi wanted to say a few more polite words, but Kong Liang spoke up, "That old bastard isn't dead. He'll definitely go back and call for reinforcements. Let's hurry and send her to Hengshan to complete the mission, lest something unexpected happens."

Upon hearing this, Wuchenzi nodded and then said to Lu Hanzhi, "Fairy Hanzhi, let's not linger and hurry to Hengshan."

Lu Hanzhi nodded and said, "Okay." (End of Chapter)
