Legendary Son-in-Law: The Man with Poison Talismans

"Show me your weapon."

Jiang Yanzhou's voice was a few decibels lower than before, with a hint of probing, "This is a top-grade Purgatory weapon with an attack of 0-32, more valuable than the Judgment Sword. This War God Armor has an attack of 0-4, and it cost me a lot of money. This young master does not bully the weak."

He paused, puffed out his chest, and said, "And you? What do you have to fight me with? I don't bully the weak."

Lin Mu looked at him and smiled.

This indicates that there are still doubts, and they are testing his background.

He took out the Demon-Slaying Sword from his Qiankun Bag. The sword was long and slender, with a flowing silver light that gleamed coldly in the torchlight.

He pointed his sword at Jiang Yanzhou, his tone as casual as if he were saying that the weather was nice today: "I know, I know. It's rare that you've prepared such a good weapon for me again. Don't worry, I'll sell it directly if I capture it. I won't keep it for myself."

Jiang Yanzhou stared at the Demon-Slaying Sword for two seconds; it was a level 20 weapon.

The corners of his mouth slowly turned up, and most of the fear in his eyes dissipated.

Lin Mu's rank was much lower than he had imagined.

He charged forward with a roar, carrying the Purgatory Blade. His boots pounded on the flagstones like drums.

Lin Mu smiled.

Finally, he mustered up the courage. It seems the trauma he suffered in the Qin family courtyard was quite significant.

His gaze unconsciously swept towards Jiang Yanzhou's crotch, but that area still had to be the Demon-Subduing Staff, which was sharper than the Limitless Staff.

He stood still, watching Jiang Yanzhou rush closer and closer.

He was thinking of summoning the skeleton over so Jiang Yanzhou could play with it.

He had just conceived the idea of ​​summoning a skeleton, but before he could even raise his hand, a white light exploded in front of him with a "whoosh".

The skeleton teleported directly over.

Jiang Yanzhou's axe had arrived. He was startled by the sudden appearance of the tall skeleton, but he couldn't stop it.

An axe struck the skull squarely in the chest, the blade hitting the bone with a dull thud.

-24.

Jiang Yanzhou was dumbfounded.

His Purgatory weapon, a top-tier Purgatory with an attack power of 0-32, combined with his full set of top-tier equipment, gave him an attack power of approximately 70. Yet, when he struck the skeleton, it only dealt 24 damage.

He looked up at the skeleton, and the skeleton looked down at him, the flames in its two eye sockets flickering as if it were looking at a child who didn't know the immensity of the world.

Lin Mu was also taken aback. This skeleton could finally teleport on its own? He hadn't tried it again since. When did it learn that?

The skeleton swung its axe at Jiang Yanzhou with a backhand swing, but Jiang Yanzhou narrowly dodged it. The axe blade grazed his shoulder armor, leaving a white mark on the armor.

After the accident, he suddenly took several steps back, staggered, and almost fell.

"Despicable! All you do is cheat!"

Jiang Yanzhou pointed at Lin Mu, his voice shrill and sharp, his fingers trembling.

Lin Mu ignored him.

The onlookers were far from idle. That skeleton was taller than a person, with two horns on its head, scales on its bones, and it could even teleport to protect its owner—what kind of divine skeleton was this?

Some people gaped, some rubbed their eyes, and some whispered, "Holy crap!"

Several young men crowded at the front, their eyes wide like saucers. One of them muttered, "This skeleton... is even fiercer than our instructor's."

Jiang Yanzhou gritted his teeth, refusing to believe it.

What kind of good skeleton can a son-in-law raise? Maybe he's all show and no substance. That last axe blow was just bad luck; he triggered the lower limit of his attack.

He gripped Purgatory tightly and charged forward again.

Lin Mu hid behind the skeleton, crossed his arms, and didn't even bother to move.

Chapter 161 I'll Let You Cut Ten Times

Jiang Yanzhou swung his axe to the left, but the skeleton dodged to the side; he swung his axe to the right, but the skeleton parried with its axe raised.

Sparks flew everywhere, making Jiang Yanzhou's hand go numb.

He tried to bypass the skeleton to attack Lin Mu, but the skeleton was like a wall, blocking his way no matter what he did.

He charged to the left, but the skeleton blocked him from the left; he charged to the right, but the skeleton blocked him from the right; he tried to leap over it and deliver a powerful slash, but the skeleton swung its axe back and chopped him back.

-86.

Jiang Yanzhou staggered backward, glancing down at the knife mark on his breastplate.

The War God Armor, with an attack rating of 0-4, was cleaved with a deep dent.

How can the damage be so high?

His face turned pale. After all, a level 26 warrior only has 334 health points, and this axe blow directly cost him a quarter of his health.

This is still without the skeletons using the green poison attack, thanks to Lin Mu's guidance.

Jiang Yanzhou stepped back and frantically pulled out a bottle of potent solar water from his waist and gulped it down. The golden liquid slid down his throat into his stomach, and his blood volume increased, but the fear in his heart did not subside.

He stood there, panting heavily, too afraid to go any further.

Lin Mu peeked out from behind the skeleton and glanced at Jiang Yanzhou.

It went back and stopped moving. Perfect.

Try using the skeleton's teleportation ability again.

He emerged from behind the skeleton, ran to the other side of the arena, clapped his hands, and beckoned to Jiang Yanzhou with his finger: "Come on, come here. Come and hit me, you idiot."

Jiang Yanzhou's eyes lit up when he saw Lin Mu run out from behind the skeleton. His chance had arrived.

He gripped Purgatory tightly, charged forward, his boots thumping on the bluestone slabs, and in a few steps he crossed half the arena.

The axe blade was raised high, gleaming coldly in the torchlight, and was about to chop down on Lin Mu's head.

Lin Mu didn't move.

He stood there, a slight smile playing on his lips, when a thought crossed his mind.

With a "whoosh," a flash of white light appeared, and the skeleton vanished from the other end of the arena, only to reappear in front of Lin Mu out of thin air.

"clang".

Sparks flew as the skeleton held its axe across its chest.

He blocked Jiang Yanzhou's downward strike, the shock making his hands go numb and almost causing him to drop the weapon.

After blocking the attack, the skeleton swung its axe backhand, and Jiang Yanzhou was unable to dodge in time, resulting in another dent in his shoulder armor.

-73.

Jiang Yanzhou staggered backward, staring wide-eyed at the skeleton, his mouth agape, unable to utter a single word.

What I just saw wasn't an illusion or a hallucination; the skeleton was indeed teleporting.

Lin Mu was also delighted. He hadn't expected that the skeleton would unknowingly learn how to teleport and protect its master during this time.

More and more people gathered to watch from outside the ring.

There were only a few dozen people a moment ago, but now there are hundreds, three or four layers deep. Some people are standing on tiptoe, some are climbing on the wall, and some are standing on the trees, all wanting to see what is being fought on the stage.

Lin Mu slowly emerged from behind the skeleton, walked to the other side, and beckoned to Jiang Yanzhou, saying, "Come here."

Jiang Yanzhou, refusing to believe it, gritted his teeth and charged forward again.

Before he could even get close, a flash of white light appeared, and the skeleton was back in front of Lin Mu. The axe was held horizontally in front of his chest, like an insurmountable wall.

……

After several attempts, Jiang Yanzhou's breathing became heavier and his steps became more and more labored.

The Purgatory Sword felt like it was made of lead in my hands; each swing required all my strength.

He stood there, panting heavily, staring at the skeleton, his heart growing colder and colder.

People around started talking about it. Some had thought they were seeing things and rubbed their eyes to keep looking. After a few times, no one rubbed their eyes anymore; it really was teleportation.

"Could this skeleton be equipped with a teleportation ring?"

A young man dressed in cloth said in a low voice, "I heard that teleportation rings can teleport and blink."

An older man beside him shook his head, frowning, and said in a low voice, "It looks like one, but it's not. I've read about it in ancient texts. This is a skeleton's teleportation guardian, which in some ways is even more powerful than a skeleton wearing a teleportation ring. It's only been less than two minutes since it started, and that skeleton has already teleported five times. After the Woma incident a while ago, my elders researched teleportation rings. The conditions for teleportation are very strict, and it also requires memory equipment. Even just teleporting takes five minutes to use once. And this skeleton…"

He swallowed hard. "The cooling speed is too fast."

Jiang Yanzhou heard it too. His face turned even paler than before.

He couldn't even get a teleportation ring, yet this son-in-law's skeleton is more powerful than a teleportation ring?

He gritted his teeth, pointed at Lin Mu, and said in a shrill voice, "You despicable scoundrel! All you do is hide behind a skeleton. Come out and fight me one-on-one!"

Lin Mu was taken aback. This Jiang Yanzhou was shameless, making a Taoist priest go out for a one-on-one fight without using a skeleton. But Lin Mu looked at him and smiled: "Okay."

Someone in the crowd immediately shouted, "Who is this warrior? He challenged the Taoist priest to a duel and wouldn't let him use his skeletons. That's shameless!"

Someone else chimed in, "That's right, the Taoist's ability to summon a skeleton is impressive. If you're so capable, why don't you summon one yourself?"

Several young people started to jeer and boo, with one shouting at the top of his lungs, "Young master, don't fall for his tricks!"

Lin Mu ignored these voices.

He beckoned to the skeleton, and with a thought, he made a gesture.

The skull transformed into silvery-white specks of light, surging towards his body.

As the silver light faded, Lin Mu stood in the center of the arena, transformed from a person into a warrior encased in white bone armor.

He glanced down at his status bar.

HP: 4203/4203

Then he raised his head, pointed at Jiang Yanzhou, and said in a low voice, but everyone could hear him clearly: "Alright, now I don't have a skeleton anymore. Come here, I'll let you cut me ten times, I won't dodge. If you dodge even once, I'll lose."

Jiang Yanzhou looked at the skeletal figure in front of him with some suspicion, but the voice was indeed that of Lin Mu. The skeleton had indeed disappeared, and now the die was cast.

He took a deep breath, gripped Purgatory tightly, and charged forward.

The axe blade was raised high and slashed down hard at Lin Mu's chest.
