The fox-eared woman's ears twitched. "Gentlemen, there's an old Chinese saying, 'Plan before you act.' We're not like those reckless fools over there."
The two ordinary people were clearly very impatient with this explanation.
This self-proclaimed Nine-Tailed Fox has used similar excuses countless times. Every time their organization asks him to attack a city with that Lord Baturu, he always makes excuses.
It wasn't that there was insufficient intelligence and that caution was needed, or that according to tradition, it was not advisable to start a war today, or similar statements.
This is the 7th time this excuse has been used today.
“Miss Nine-Tailed Fox, we don’t know what you’re worried about. We’ve already conquered many cities with Lord Baturu’s help. If that false god were really going to take action, he would have done so long ago. How could he just stand by and watch his devout followers get hurt?”
The two ordinary people's words began to carry a hint of impoliteness.
The fox-eared woman glanced at the berserk Baturu over there.
What else can you say about this Berserker who doesn't retain much intelligence? She's just a war machine that only knows how to fight and kill, but she's not some brainless idiot.
Perhaps because she had guarded the tomb of that Yellow Emperor, she was summoned to this land of China along with that brainless madman.
After the summons, these self-proclaimed resistance fighters jumped out, claiming that the land was ruled by an evil Eastern immortal and that they hoped to join forces with her to overthrow him.
When she heard this, she didn't refuse outright. Instead, she used these people's connections to figure out a lot of basic information about the world.
She even went up close to see the statue of the deity in the capital of the Ming Dynasty.
However, upon seeing the almost solidified power of faith swirling around the statue, and the terrifying divine lightning that permeated the air, she knew that these fools were likely to be thoroughly crushed and humiliated.
People from other systems may not yet fully realize just how powerful these things combined are.
But she knew all too well that it was the faith of an entire planet, and that ordinary people could receive healing responses simply by sincerely praying to the idol.
This is definitely not an ordinary Eastern immortal, because an ordinary Eastern immortal, even if they respond, would probably not be so universal, but rather would respond selectively.
Anyone who can do this must be a powerful being who doesn't take faith seriously.
Therefore, those who resisted were most likely just a bunch of fools waiting to die.
The reason they can be so arrogant and domineering now is simply because the other side hasn't noticed these things.
Once the other party comes to their senses, or notices the situation here, and descends...
The outcome is self-evident.
She, Tamamo-no-Mae, is not the kind of person who would side with the loser.
Then we must not kill a single person, and after everyone else has left the stage, we must quickly surrender.
Are you suggesting we let her fight this kind of immortal head-on?
That can kill people.
"Ok?"
The fox-eared woman's ears twitched as she keenly looked up at the sky.
After seeing the enormous ship faintly visible in the clouds with her superhuman eyesight, she smiled and said, "You two are right, I really should make my move."
"Are you really going to make a move?"
The two members of the resistance were overjoyed. This person was finally willing to take action, and their speed of conquering territory would probably be even faster.
"Hehe, of course, I, Tamamo-no-Mae, keep my word~"
Tamamo-no-Mae covered her face and smiled, then three radiant tails appeared behind her body.
"Hey guys, could I borrow something from you?"
Tamamo-no-Mae spoke gently, without the slightest hint of hostility.
"Of course, what do you need from us?"
Tamamo-no-Mae's words delighted the two of them; it seemed like something big was about to happen.
"Hehe, it's simple, just stand still, you two guys~"
"you……"
One of them was about to speak when he suddenly froze, then stared incredulously at the source of the sudden pain in his chest.
It was an arm as delicate as white jade; if he had seen it normally, he would probably have admired it.
But now, that delicate, fair arm has pierced through his chest.
"Why... why?"
His eyes gradually dimmed, but he still managed to utter those words.
However, Tamamo-no-Mae did not respond to his question, but instead swiftly withdrew her arm.
"Pfft"
Blood splattered as Tamamo-no-Mae ripped out a beating heart. The man collapsed to the ground without uttering a sound, blood flowing out and staining the ground red.
This scene terrified the other members of the resistance group. They stared blankly at Tamamo-no-Mae, and after several seconds, they stammered, "You... why did you..."
"Hey buddy, haven't you heard the saying?"
Tamamo-no-Mae smiled sweetly.
"Wha...what?"
He swallowed hard, feeling completely unable to think.
Why did this person, who was speaking gently just moments before, suddenly become as terrifying as a demon?
Am I hallucinating?
Or is the other person mentally ill?
That is, a wise person knows when to yield.
Tamamo-no-Mae wore a virtuous wife's smile, but her hand brushed across the man's neck.
The man stared wide-eyed at Tamamo-no-Mae, but he couldn't utter a word, because his neck had been severed by an attack imbued with magical power.
"Oh dear, actually, they're quite reluctant to part with you guys. You've diligently provided me with so much intelligence, but unfortunately, if I don't eliminate you, what will happen if they treat me as an enemy?"
Tamamo-no-Mae's tone was full of regret, but she was very seriously tidying up her clothes.
She believed she would need it later.
Chapter 852 The Confused Tamamo-no-Mae
"A celestial being from the East, how I long for it! If only I could receive such a blessing..."
Tamamo-no-Mae smiled gently. Having been summoned with great difficulty, how could she go back so easily?
As we all know, immortals in the East are known for their diverse abilities. Perhaps they have a way to make her take human form and stay in this world for a long time.
"Wow, what a grand display..."
When Tamamo-no-Mae saw the interstellar warship flying overhead, she assumed it was preparing for a long-range attack. However, to her surprise, several people actually descended from the warship.
"Wait... who is that monkey wearing the golden chainmail armor...?"
As she watched the arrival of some of the people, Tamamo-no-Mae fell silent. She recognized Bai Zhi; after all, the statue was so large that even if there were some differences, the basic characteristics were still there. But the arrival of the monkey startled her.
Because monkeys are not low-ranking creatures. Except for the period before they start learning their skills, they are basically not simple characters at any other stage.
During his time as the Demon King, he possessed most of the skills except for the Indestructible Body and Fiery Eyes. By the time of the Great Sage Equaling Heaven, according to the rules and ranks, he had already reached a top-tier level of divinity.
During the time of the pilgrimage, apart from a decrease in divinity, he was on par with the Great Sage Equal to Heaven in every other aspect. When he became the Victorious Fighting Buddha, he reached a peak.
Judging from the monkey's attire—golden chainmail and lotus-silk cloud-walking shoes—it was definitely not before he learned his skills; it was at least during his demon king period.
The deployment of this level of combat power to this battlefield has had a devastating impact.
"Did I see it wrong?"
After some deliberation, Tamamo-no-Mae decided to get a little closer to take a look.
After all, whether or not someone of this caliber appears will change many things, including her plans.
If it's true, the list of organization members and addresses she painstakingly collected would be much less valuable.
After making some minor preparations and disguising herself as an ordinary person, Tamamo-no-Mae quietly approached the place where Bai Zhi and the others had arrived.
"Look! A huge ship is flying in the sky!!"
The massive interstellar warship cast a shadow below, drawing the attention of almost everyone.
"What is that thing? Could it be something those supernatural beings who came to attack the city did again?"
Many people trembled with fear upon seeing the enormous spaceship.
These days, those supernatural beings keep launching attacks, conquering cities and seizing territories. They can only barely defend themselves, relying on the high city walls and some people taking the initiative to lure that not-so-bright supernatural being to other places to protect them from harm.
But now, how do we deal with this flying creature if it's an enemy?
"Hey, wait a minute, look at that on the city wall, isn't that Immortal Baizhi?!"
Some sharp-eyed people pointed at the city wall and shouted loudly.
"It really is true. Immortal Bai Zhi has descended. She must be here to deal with those traitors."
"When the immortal Bai Zhi arrived, the blue sky was restored."
……
"Little Dragon Man, you're really popular! Do all the people of the Immortal Ship have this kind of taste? I've heard that many people from the Immortal Ship like to go to backward planets to become immortals."
Bai Zhi shrugged. "Does that mean I'm not considered a deity on the Immortal Ship?"
With a combat power at the Envoy level, even on a celestial ship where everyone is a long-lived being, that's like being a god among gods. Why would they need to go to some backward planet?
"Tch, can't you just follow the script and let me say a few more words?"
"Well, I'm really sorry about that, and now's not the time to worry about that. Everyone, does anyone want to go and meet this guy down there?"
Bai Zhi glanced around at everyone. She wasn't interested in the guy with the pigtail hairstyle, so she just wanted to see if anyone else wanted to give it a try.
"Little Bai, I disdain to lay a hand on such a mortal."
On the city wall, the monkey looked down at the rampaging Baturu below, holding its stick, but also looked rather uninterested.
Who is he? The Monkey King. Most of the monsters he usually deals with are those that have taken human form. In his eyes, this Baturu is just a wild soul of a mortal combined with a little bit of magic power to become a vengeful ghost.
Even the monk he was escorting might have been able to send the vengeful ghost to its eternal rest by simply draping his robe over himself and chanting scriptures.
"You."
Bai Zhi shook her head, but she did understand the monkey's decision. Letting him go and deal with this thing reminded Bai Zhi of a question on a famous Q&A website from her previous life: Would the Monkey King win if he went to fight the old corpse in the mountain village?
The main theme is something that will make people laugh.
"However, although I'm not interested in this guy, but..."
The monkey glanced at a group of civilians not far away, its eyes gleaming with a faint golden light.
"If they are monsters that want to cause trouble, I don't mind smashing them to death with a stick."
Tamamo-no-Mae was startled and immediately took several steps back. Just now, she felt as if she had been completely seen through, and her disguise seemed to be completely useless in front of her.
The other party is most likely the legendary Monkey King. That gaze just now was probably the Fiery Eyes that could see through demons, gods, immortals, and all kinds of disguises. My little tricks are nothing compared to the other party's skills.
What surprised her even more was that the other party addressed the Bai Zhi Immortal in a rather intimate manner, suggesting that their relationship was definitely very close.
It seems I need to reassess my plans.
"A mischievous monster?"
Bai Zhi looked at the monkey with some curiosity, clearly indicating that the other party was not just saying it casually.
"It's nothing, just a little fox demon watching from the side. But I'm not escorting that monk right now, so as long as the fox demon doesn't make a move, I won't kill her with a stick."
The monkey's voice did not decrease, clearly intended as a warning to Tamamo-no-Mae who was watching from the sidelines.
Bai Zhi raised an eyebrow.
Fox spirits? There are no original supernatural powers in this world. If fox spirits appear, they must be something like Servants.
But which fox demon has appeared in this area?
Qingqiu, or Tushan?
It can't be some kind of monster from ancient mythology, like Daji or something.
