Chapter 279: Fox and Snake Battle
Chapter 279: Fox and Snake Battle
At this time, Yan Niang came back to her senses, and her body emitted a red light. She closed her eyes and silently chanted a spell in her heart, and suddenly she saw the huge rock pressing on Yun Zhen slowly moved away!
Yun Zhen breathed a sigh of relief as the pressure on his back was relieved. He turned his head slightly and looked at Yan Niang.
Yan Niang seemed to feel Yun Zhen's gaze and suddenly opened her eyes. Her eyes were extremely fierce, without any of the gentleness that she showed when she was helping others. Instead, it seemed as if she had no choice but to use her telekinesis.
In fact, Yan Niang did not use her telekinesis to save Yun Zhen, but to save Ji Anni who was under Yun Zhen.
If Ji Anni didn't help Yun Zhen move the boulder, she would not be able to escape.
Although Yan Niang could move the boulder away from Yun Zhen, she could not find a place to put it in the cave because the small space in the cave was filled with falling rubble. Therefore, Yan Niang could only move the boulder to the air and suspend it, but could not find a place to put it down. Yan Niang had to concentrate on using her telekinesis, and her vigilance against the dangers around her was also weakened.
At this time, Taoist Yuan Rong on the opposite side of the seal saw Yan Niang's flaw.
If you take advantage of this opportunity to attack Yan Niang, she will have no power to fight back.
Taoist Yuan Rong, who was only thinking about catching the monster, suddenly showed a sly smile. He put up two fingers and secretly recited the spell to summon Shikigami. Suddenly, a black shadow jumped up from his fingertips.
The black shadow passed through the seal at lightning speed and attacked Yan Niang!
Although Taoist Yuan Rong himself could not pass through the golden seal, the shikigami he released belonged to the demon family and was not blocked by the seal. The black shadow was a black snake with poison, which opened its mouth and bit Yan Niang's neck mercilessly.
"Be careful!" Seeing that the black snake was about to bite Yan Niang, Ji Anni suddenly burst into a scream.
Yan Niang, who suddenly came to her senses after hearing the scream, had already missed the best opportunity to dodge the attack. In a hurry, she jumped to the side and successfully avoided the black snake's fangs, but was tightly bound by the black snake's slender body.
Yan Niang's dodging caused the huge rock that had been moved into the air to fall back down and hit Yun Zhen's back heavily.
Yun Zhen, who had just recovered his breath, was hit again. His internal organs seemed to be crushed by the boulder, and he spat out a mouthful of blood with a "wow". His entire skeleton seemed to have been broken, and Yun Zhen could no longer support his body. He pressed down on Ji Anni.
"Yun Zhen? Yun Zhen?" Ji Anni was frightened. She held up Yun Zhen's face and hurriedly helped him wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth.
"My queen... I'm... I'm sorry..." Yun Zhen was pressed down by the huge rock and couldn't lift his head. He could only bury his head in Ji Anni's shoulder and apologized softly with his dying voice, "My queen, I'm sorry... I made you dirty..."
Although Ji Anni was not injured, her face and body were already covered with Yun Zhen's blood. She looked like she had just crawled out of a pool of blood. The strong fishy smell had long since rendered Ji Anni's nose useless.
"Yun Zhen, I should be the one to say sorry... I hurt you..." Ji Anni felt sadder and sadder. If it wasn't for protecting herself, Yun Zhen wouldn't have rushed into the seal, and wouldn't have been hurt.
Why am I so useless? I can’t help at all at the critical moment.
It will only cause others to get hurt for themselves... bleed for themselves...

At the same time, the black snake that was wrapped around Yan Niang opened its bloody mouth and launched a second attack on Yan Niang.
This time Yan Niang was well prepared, and her movements were faster than the black snake. The moment the black snake pounced, she bit the black snake's neck, right on the black snake's seven inches. As long as she kept increasing the force, she could bite the black snake to death.
It's a pity that Yan Niang can't use the strength to kill the black snake now, because Yan Niang's body has been tightly entangled by the black snake. If she can't break free, Yan Niang will be in danger of her life.
So in the current situation, Yan Niang and Black Snake are just one step away from killing each other, but both are pinned down by the other party. They are in a confrontation and are wasting their energy. They cannot reveal any flaws, otherwise they will be killed by the other party.
At this time, Taoist Yuan Rong, who was outside the seal, saw that a black snake could not kill the fox demon, so he began to chant the spell again, intending to summon the second Shikigami.
Yan Niang kept staring at Taoist Yuan Rong, and when she saw his lips opening and closing, she immediately guessed his plan.
A black snake had almost taken Yan Niang's life. If Taoist Yuan Rong summoned a second Shikigami, she would be dead. In desperation, Yan Niang used all her strength to hit the cave wall, hoping to kill the black snake that was wrapped around her.
The violent collision caused the cave to shake again, and Taoist Yuan Rong, who was chanting a spell, had to chant again because he almost fell down. This gave Yan Niang time to break free from the black snake. Yan Niang kept biting her upper and lower teeth, biting the black snake until it bled profusely.
Due to the seven-inch wound and the violent collision just now, the black snake was already exhausted, and its slender body that was like a rope wrapped around Yan Niang slowly loosened.
Yan Niang hurriedly escaped from the black snake's entanglement and bit the black snake several times until the black snake was really killed. Then she raised her head and threw the black snake's body out of the seal and onto Taoist Yuan Rong.
After the black snake shikigami died, its body quickly turned into a ball of black smoke and disappeared.
When Taoist Yuan Rong saw Yan Niang kill one of his Shikigami, he became even more angry, and his eyes were almost popping out of blood.
Yan Niang was frightened by the anger in Taoist Yuan Rong's eyes, and subconsciously took a few steps back.
In the fight with the black snake just now, Yan Niang had already used up most of her physical strength. If Taoist Yuan Rong released a new Shikigami at this time, Yan Niang would not be able to resist at all.
A head-on confrontation would only lead to death, so after a brief consideration, Yan Niang chose to retreat.
She no longer had the ability to protect Ji Anni, so she could only hand Ji Anni over to Yun Zhen for care. Although Yan Niang was very reluctant to return Ji Anni to the palace, she had to give up for the sake of Ji Anni's life.
Just as Yan Niang turned around and ran away, Yan Niang's voice came into Ji Anni's mind.
"I will come to see you again! When the time comes, I will take you and Prince Ming out of the palace together!"
After Yan Niang left these words with her telekinesis, she had already disappeared without a trace.
Before Taoist Yuan Rong finished chanting the spell, Yan Niang had successfully hidden herself in the darkness.
Although the cave was already filled with rubble, Yan Niang's petite body could move freely between the cracks between the stones. Soon, she was already far away from Taoist Yuan Rong.
At this time, Taoist Yuan Rong's fingertips had released three new black snakes, whose bodies were thinner than Yan Niang's. Under Taoist Yuan Rong's command, the black snakes chased after the fleeing Yan Niang like flying arrows.
Taoist Yuan Rong couldn't see Yan Niang's body, so he could only determine her location by feeling her evil spirit. As Yan Niang ran further and further away, the evil spirit he could feel became weaker and weaker. In addition, there was already interference from the ghost king's evil spirit in the cave, which greatly increased the difficulty of accurately finding Yan Niang's location.
Taoist Yuan Rong had to focus all his energy on searching for Yan Niang's evil spirit, and had no time to ask about the situation of Yun Zhen and Ji Anni who were still trapped under the boulder, so he did not feel the faint evil spirit coming from Ji Anni.

The tears on Ji Anni's face had dried. She listened to Yun Zhen's painful breathing, and her heart ached like a knife.
If I am also a fox demon, why don’t I have any magical powers?
If Yan Niang can move the stone off Yun Zhen's back, why can't she?
Ji Anni imitated Yan Niang, closed her eyes, and concentrated all her energy in her heart: Stone, float up! Float up! Float up quickly! Originally, this was just a fantasy in despair, but she didn't expect that the boulder on Yun Zhen's back actually shook slightly. After hearing the sound of the boulder shaking, Ji Anni suddenly opened her eyes, and the shaking of the boulder stopped again.
Does it really work?
Ji Anni's heart began to beat rapidly. She closed her eyes again and said silently in her heart: Move! Move! Move!
At this time, the boulder was shaking again.
No matter how hard Ji Anni concentrated, she still couldn't move the boulder in the air like Yan Niang did. She tried her best, but in the end, she could only make the boulder shake slightly.
At this time, Yun Zhen, who was about to lose consciousness, discovered that Ji Anni was using telekinesis, and used the last bit of strength to stop her, saying, "My queen... No, no..."
Firstly, it was impossible for Ji Anni to move the boulder with her magical powers. Secondly, Taoist Yuan Rong was not far away. If Taoist Yuan Rong found out that Ji Anni could use magic, her identity as a fox demon would be easily exposed. Yun Zhen couldn't let Ji Anni take this risk.
"I'm sorry, Yun Zhen... I can't help you at all..." Ji Anni was very regretful. At this moment, she wished she was a real fox demon with real magic power.
Even if she would be driven out of the palace or burned at the stake in the future, as long as she could help Yun Zhen move the boulder and relieve Yun Zhen's pain, Ji Anni would be willing to do it no matter what the cost. But God did not give her this ability. Now she could not even protect herself, let alone help Yun Zhen.
"My queen, it is my responsibility to protect you...you don't have to do anything..." Yun Zhen, who had just regained a little strength, tried to straighten his upper body slightly so that he could give Ji Anni more space.
But such an action would only increase the burden of the boulder on Yun Zhen's injured body.
As soon as Yun Zhen moved, Ji Anni immediately stopped him and said, "No, Yun Zhen, don't move..."
As soon as Yun Zhen moved, new blood began to drip from the wound. Ji Annie couldn't bear to watch Yun Zhen bleeding like rain.
She put her hands around Yun Zhen's body and supported herself on the huge rock on Yun Zhen's back.
Although she didn't have the strength to lift the boulder, she could help Yun Zhen lift it up a little bit so that Yun Zhen wouldn't feel too much pain. This was the only thing she could do to help Yun Zhen now.
