Is this NPC even playable if it's not nerfed?

Chapter 204 The Spirit Seeks Revenge, the Evil Dragon of the Sea Abyss, and the King of Spirits

"I think they've come to deliver vegetables."

How dare they?

The Peach Blossom Fairy was speechless. In this day and age, is this how you send someone to their death?
Don't you know that Wangyou County is even harder to conquer than the capital city of Dayong?

Trying to pick a fight with Wangyou County? You must have died before.

Putting aside Lu Yuan's combat strength, Hu San Niang's strength alone is enough to easily defeat all those monsters.

Do you even know the value of mythical beasts?

Even at her peak, she wasn't confident in suppressing Hu San Niang, let alone ordinary spirits and monsters.

"Don't worry about whether they dare or not, they've already made this plan. Little Peach Blossom, be careful, don't die."

"Waiting to be resurrected is very painful."

The slug's body blended into the water in the puddle, making it look just like a pool of water. Ordinary people couldn't tell the difference between the water and the slug.

"Little slug, you don't also think those spirits and monsters can succeed, do you?"

"Don't underestimate Lu Yuan."

The Peach Blossom Fairy said with displeasure.

"Ugh."

"Little Peach Blossom, it's not that I look down on you, but there are a few very troublesome monsters among them this time."

"Although Chief Constable Lu is strong, he is still only one person."

"You have no reason not to know the principle that two fists can't beat four hands."

"As for you, you're too weak; you can't help him."

"If your true form were to awaken, how much of a chance would you be able to handle it?"

The slug spirit's voice rang out, and its words, "You're too weak," directly broke through the Peach Blossom Fairy's defenses.

"Grass."

"Little slug, that's enough. Where am I weak? I'm quite capable in a fight."

The Peach Blossom Fairy waved her little fist.

"Oh right, you're really good at fighting, but you almost got killed by the blood zombie."

The slug spirit's two eyes emerged from the water's surface, and it rolled its eyes at the Peach Blossom Fairy.

"how do you know?"

"That's what others said. Besides, do you think I don't know your own worth, Little Peach Blossom?"

"The slug spirit said helplessly."

"Ok."

"However, let me tell you, you have underestimated Lu Yuan."

"Whether there are many people or few people is meaningless to him."

The Peach Blossom Fairy puffed out her chest, her tone filled with pride.

"Little Peach Blossom, what's wrong with you...?"

"Oh, forget it."

"No more."

The slug spirit saw its own past self in the peach blossom fairy. Back then, when it was blinded by love, it was just like that, blindly confident in love, believing itself to be omnipotent and able to be her support.

Ugh.

"Little Slug, how did you know they were heading towards Forget-Worry County?"

The Peach Blossom Fairy was very curious.

As fellow spirits, why didn't she know, while her best friend Xiaoyu found out first?

"They came looking for me."

"I didn't agree."

"The slug spirit said calmly."

Most of the spirits and monsters around Wangyou County have already left.

There were only four spirits that did not leave.

Blood Corpse and Qi are constantly in a state of resurrection, while Peach Blossom Fairy has long been blacklisted by the monsters.

This brat betrayed all the spirits first; wouldn't they tear her apart if they saw her?
Of all the remaining spirits, only this one remains.

Because of her unique nature, she has a good relationship with most of the spirits, so some spirits contacted her recently to ask if she wanted to get involved.

She refused without even thinking about it.

She has no grudge against Wangyou County, so why would she want to cause trouble for it?
Moreover, Lu Yuan was her benefactor, so she had even less reason to cause trouble for Wangyou County.

Not only will she not cause trouble for Wangyou County, she will also secretly help Wangyou County behind its back.

Who was involved?

The Peach Blossom Fairy asked curiously.

"There are too many participants, including some spirits I don't recognize."

"Then tell me someone I know."

"Do you still remember that stinky toad at the foot of Five Tiger Mountain a thousand years ago?"

The slug spirit suddenly uttered a name.

The Peach Blossom Fairy suddenly remembered.

"I remember, I remember. That stinky toad tried to force himself on me, but I had someone beat it up."

"That stinky toad was involved?"

"That's right, it didn't just participate; it was the one that proposed the siege of Wangyou County."

The slug spirit revealed the truth.

"Damn, are you crazy? Did Wangyou County offend them? Why are they doing this?"

The Peach Blossom Fairy was immediately displeased.

The slug spirit's eyes widened in disbelief as it stretched out its head to look at the Peach Blossom Fairy.

"What are you talking about?"

"You haven't offended it?"

"Has Wangyou County ever offended it?"

"Have you forgotten that you sold their information to the Extraordinary Ones?"

"You've forgotten where that stinky toad's lair is?"

"Think about it, who bombed Five Tiger Mountain?"

Do you still think it has no grudge against Wangyou County?

The slug spirit looked speechless.

She suddenly remembered a sentence.

I have never seen such a shameless person.

This is perfect for that shameless Peach Blossom Fairy.

"a ha ha ha."

"I'm sorry, I almost forgot about that."

"My bad, my bad."

The Peach Blossom Fairy suddenly remembered that among the spirits she had betrayed was that stinky toad.

Moreover, the stinky toad's lair is in Wuhu Mountain, so by that calculation, the stinky toad does indeed have a deep-seated hatred for Wangyou County.

"Don't laugh yet, there's more."

"The spirit of a thousand-year-old tree in Qingcheng Mountain."

"No, I don't think I betrayed that old tree spirit."

"Qingcheng Mountain is in Sichuan. I haven't even had a chance to sell its information yet. Besides, why would it come all this way to join in the fun? Is it just bored?"

The Peach Blossom Fairy looked up, utterly bewildered.

"The old tree spirit has no grudge against you, but it has a grudge against Chief Constable Lu. Six years ago, Lu Yuan destroyed Qingcheng Mountain."

"That doesn't make sense either. Qingcheng Mountain is a sect of humans. Lu Yuan destroyed Qingcheng Mountain. What does that have to do with this monster?"

"Is it possible that when I said Qingcheng Mountain, I wasn't referring to any human sect, but rather the name of a mountain?"

"When Chief Constable Lu destroyed Qingcheng Mountain, he also blasted away most of the mountain."

"The old tree spirit just woke up and found that most of its home was gone. Can you swallow this insult?"

The slug spirit looked speechless.

Lu Yuan's destructive power is astonishing. Of the spirits who came seeking revenge, at least one-third came because of Lu Yuan, another third because of the Peach Blossom Fairy, and the remaining third came with other malicious intent.

For example, the ringleader in this case is a case in point.

Are there any other acquaintances?

"Yes, a lot of them were betrayed by you."

"Ahem, then let's not talk about it."

"By the way, who's the leader? It shouldn't be that stinky toad, right? That stinky toad isn't qualified to be the leader."

The Stinky Toad's strength is quite average, only slightly stronger than the Blood Corpse.

With that kind of ability, he's no match for being a leader.

"It is the evil dragon of the sea abyss, Ao Wu."

“Ao Wu? That can’t be right. I don’t think I’ve offended it. It stays in the abyss all year round. Lu Yuan couldn’t possibly have any grudge against it.”

"This isn't right."

The Evil Dragon of the Abyss is a powerful sea serpent spirit born in the abyss of the sea. Legend has it that they have the blood of dragons and can transform into dragons when they grow to a certain level.

Although he has the blood of a dragon, it is thin and he is not considered a descendant of dragons. He also lacks the favor and fortune of heaven and earth, so he cannot transform into a dragon in this life, and he is not even considered a mythical beast.

Although the evil dragon of the sea abyss is a spirit or monster, it possesses formidable strength, with the strongest among them even capable of rivaling other beasts.

He is one of the best among spirits, and is also known as the King of Spirits. Ao Wu is the fifth of the evil dragons in the sea abyss. He is very strong and is definitely one of the top spirits in the world.

At its peak, it fought a great battle with the mythical beast Dragon Carp. The battle was so fierce that it caused the heavens and earth to shatter, and the impact extended for three thousand nautical miles. The sea surface was torn apart, countless islands sank into the sea, and the Ridge of the Abyss was shattered as a result.

Due to the wide-ranging impact and countless deaths and injuries, both sides suffered divine punishment after the war. Long Li was punished by the heavens by having half of his dragon horn cut off, and his bloodline was greatly damaged. Ao Wu was suppressed and killed by heaven and earth, and his dragon bones were extracted to repair the spine of the sea abyss. His soul was imprisoned by the heavens for thousands of years.

……

Does it need a reason to cause trouble?

"Although it stays in the abyss year-round, it has heard of the reputation of Wangyou County."

"Wangyou County is too famous."

"Given Ao Wu's personality, it certainly wouldn't let go of the opportunity to establish its authority by stepping on Wangyou County."

The slug spirit had heard of Ao Wu.

They also knew what kind of person the other party was.

The name "Evil Dragon of the Sea Abyss" alone is enough to tell you what kind of creature it is.

"Hmph, then it's doomed."

“It’s evil, but Lu Yuan is even more evil.”

"Even in its prime, it wasn't a match for Lu Yuan, let alone in its current state?"

"Rubbish."

The Peach Blossom Fairy had an inexplicable confidence in Lu Yuan, a confidence that the slug spirit could hardly understand.

Perhaps, this is love.

……

A small courtyard in the south of the city.

Lu Yuan was sitting in a chair, holding a pen, intently drawing lifelike stick figures on paper.

"Alright, today's workload is done."

Lu Yuan suddenly stopped writing and wiped non-existent sweat from his forehead.

His efforts over most of the day resulted in two stick figures appearing on the snow-white paper on the table.

The workload is too heavy.

Lu Yuan lay down on the recliner.

He has completed 30% of the progress on the third form of the Heaven-Shattering Divine Palm technique, and he will be able to deliver the third form in a few days.

too tired.

I should have known better than to fool Chen Yiyi in the first place.

This has made him extremely uncomfortable.

……

"The third move of the Heaven-Shattering Divine Palm, Dragon's Roar of the Vast Ocean?"

"The move names are good, but the artwork is a bit perfunctory."

"Lu Yuan, could you please change your drawing style? Your stick figures are really too perfunctory and monotonous."

The Peach Blossom Fairy appeared before the table. Curious, she picked up the martial arts manual drawn by Lu Yuan. When she saw the stick figure on it, her expression instantly turned speechless.

The first and second styles are stick figures.

The third style is still stick figure.

It's been a year already, can't your drawing skills improve at all?

You could add a little ink and draw a human figure, that would be fine.

The bare stick figure is really perfunctory, Lao Lu.

Chen Yiyi is still young now, so you can continue to brush her off. But in a few years, Chen Yiyi won't be so easy to fool.

"Hey, hey, hey, Peach Blossom Spirit, can you stop making sarcastic remarks?"

"What stick figure? This is my life's work, a masterpiece I poured my heart and soul into, and you call it a perfunctory job?"

"That's enough, you've gone too far."

"You can humiliate me, but you can never humiliate my paintings."

"Can't you see the effort put into this painting?"

"Can't you see even a tiny bit of my effort and sweat?"

Lu Yuan was very unhappy.

He felt that his hard work had been trampled on.

He admitted that he was bad at drawing, that he had no talent for it, and that he was trash.

But, putting aside the facts, does he have absolutely no redeeming qualities?

Is all his effort, his sweat, the time and energy he put in worthless?

"Your efforts? Your sweat?"

The Peach Blossom Fairy glanced at Lu Yuan and then said disdainfully.

"Where is your effort? I see no sign of it."

"Where is your sweat? Is your sweat on someone else?"

The Peach Blossom Fairy stepped forward, her slender white fingers stroking Lu Yuan's forehead. It was very dry, without a trace of moisture.

sweat?

It's nonsense.

"This is a metaphor."

Do you understand metaphors?

"Besides, my drawing is quite good. Would you even consider it?"

Lu Yuan stubbornly retorted.

"Oh?"

"I'm quite capable."

The Peach Blossom Fairy picked up the pen on the table, and the ink flowed across the blank paper. Five minutes later, a masterpiece by a famous artist appeared before Lu Yuan's eyes.

After reading it, Lu Yuan's face visibly turned red.

"Hey, Lu Yuan, why are you blushing?"

The Peach Blossom Fairy suddenly joked.

“Refreshed.”

"It's too hot."

Lu Yuan clenched his fists, barely suppressing the urge to punch someone.

This peach blossom spirit definitely did it on purpose.

Asking knowingly.

"Is it really because of the hot weather? Or is it because you have a red fever?"

The Peach Blossom Fairy pressed for an answer.

"If you keep talking, believe me, I'll punch you."

"Have you ever eaten a fist the size of a clay pot?"

“Very delicious.”

Lu Yuan threatened viciously.

"Tch, you can't take a joke. Enough with the banter. I'm here to talk business."

The Peach Blossom Fairy's expression changed, and she immediately returned to the main topic.

She told Lu Yuan what she had learned from the slug spirit.

Lu Yuan's expression remained calm upon hearing this.

"That's it?"

"Does a dozen or so demons dare to come seeking revenge?"

"Are they brainless?"

How dare they?

Lu Yuan's tone was somewhat displeased.

Even when seeking revenge, they shouldn't bring too many people with them.

Only twenty-odd monsters? Who can kill that many?
We need at least ten or twenty thousand monsters to warm up.

Throw it away, you trash monster, you're completely useless.

"What do you mean?"

"Aren't twenty-odd spirits enough?"

The Peach Blossom Fairy rolled her eyes.

"Nonsense, who could possibly kill twenty-odd monsters?"

"My warm-up alone is more than this."

"Can you stand this feeling of being stuck in the middle?"

"Oh shit."

Lu Yuan stormed off, grabbed his sword, and headed straight for the yamen.

"Twenty-odd?"

"There's a big meal coming."

In a corner of the courtyard, the Divine Furnace, which was refining ore for Old Lu, overheard the conversation between the two and immediately perked up.

When monsters team up to seek revenge, it's like a free buffet with unlimited supplies.

Is it so cool?
Indeed, it's important to follow the right people.
