Red Envelope Group of the Three Realms

"Brother Ouyang, do you have a better plan?" Lin Nutao asked solemnly.

Wang Poqiong and Lin Qisi kept their ears open. Ouyang Jingxin, who had the look of a sophisticated scholar nonchalantly said, "Luo Puti already has the upper hand! As long as we work together, we will have a chance to defeat her!"

"Right… Even so, if we did join forces, our opponent is not Luo Puti!" Wang Poqiong furrowed his brows.

"Of course we can't just use brute force, we have to rely on our wisdom as well!" Ouyang Jingxin said, "We can't go around Luo Puti's sharp mind but that pretty boy is her weak spot!"

"Right!" Lin Qisi exclaimed excitedly. "That kid's cultivation is nothing compared to mine! As long as we capture him, we can use him to threaten Luo Puti and this simplifies everything!"

"Good idea! We'll go with this plan then!" Wang Poqiong and Lin Nutao both nodded in agreement.

"No… You both only got it half correct!"

Ouyang Jingxin shook his head and said, "We will catch that pretty boy but we are not going to do it now. Instead, we will do it after Xiangxi Phantom Lord is captured!"

"I understand!" Lin Nutao came to a realization and said, "We'll let Luo Puti capture that swine first and when her guard is down, we'll capture that pretty boy and force her to hand over the fruit of victory!"

"Wonderful!" Wang Poqiong smiled menacingly and said, "This way, we can reap the benefits without putting in much effort!"

"Splendid!"

Lin Qisi maliciously said, "By that time, we'll snatch the Xiangxi Phantom Lord first then we'll be hostile and not return that pretty boy back to Luo Puti! We'll force her down to the ground and feast on her! After we are satisfied, we'll kill both of them! Hehe…"

Upon hearing this, Ouyang Jingxin had a half-smile on his face and gave a thumbs up. "Our noble Lin really likes inflicting pain on others, you really are frightening!"

"Hehe. Brother Ouyang, you have won the prize! You and I are partners. We're both wicked and we're not ashamed of this; no one is to blame for our mistakes!" Lin Qisi smiled wryly and said, "After it's done, I'll let you be the first to hit that woman!"

"You are too kind. Well then, I will not reject your offer!" Ouyang Jingxin had a small smile on his seemingly gentle face but his eyes had a wicked glint. Both Wang Poqiong and Lin Nutao had nasty grins on their faces after hearing that as well.

"Everyone, look here! What's this?" At this moment, there was a loud exclamation from afar. Everyone quickly gathered at the place.

It was a huge rock, blazing in green flames. It was as big as a coin and the night sky made it stood out more clearly!

"Isn't that just luminous light? What's the big fuss?" Lin Qisi dismissed it.

Usually, when the bodies of humans or animals decompose, it would be converted into phosphine. When combusted spontaneously in the air, this gas would become fluorescent light. It was also called the will-o'-the-wisp by those who were superstitious. This phenomenon was very common in the wild and at times, a swarm of fireflies would even appear at the scene!

However, in the next second, Lin Qisi had a slap to his face!

"Buzz…"

Suddenly, that group of will-o'-the-wisp were floating in the air and a beetle could faintly be seen in the center. It was flapping its wings and the buzzing sounds from it could be heard clearly!

"T-that beetle is on fire?!"

"F*ck! This is too mystical! We have discovered a new species!"

"Catch it quickly! This bug is still alive!"

The crowd's curiosity was piqued; they wanted to catch the beetle to observe it.

"That's not a beetle! Stay away from it if you don't want to die!" ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ꜰʀᴏᴍ NovelEnglish.net

At this moment, Chen Xiaobei was frowning and warned, "That is powerful voodoo—You will die!"

"Isn't that just a plaything? Voodoo?"

The baffled crowd burst out laughing.

"Have you been reading too much fiction, kid? How is there voodoo in this world?"

"Kill us? You really know how to bullshit!"

"Even if it is true, we're elites of Six Doors. If we're not afraid of anything, how can we be afraid of a tiny bug?"

"That's right, watch me as I catch it!"

The crowd did not take Chen Xiaobei's words seriously. They were belittling this pretty boy, Chen Xiaobei who only relied on Luo Puti.

As the crowd settled down, a big-sized man moved forward and used the rock for his footing to jump a few meters high and catch that burning beetle. That man's cultivation was not weak; he had about fifteen thousand combat power before the Qi Refining phase. Without hesitation, he caught the burning beetle at lightning speed.

"Caught it! Haha!"

That guy had a satisfied smile as he landed back on the ground. He also leered at Chen Xiaobei. "Is this an infernal voodoo? Hmph! You're just pretending to know what you don't!"

"I will say it for the last time, if you don't want to die, get away from that thing!" Although Chen Xiaobei's expression was unreadable, he pulled Luo Puti several meters away.

Chen Xiaobei was already familiar with Taiyin True Deity's "Beginner's Art of Anti-Curse" and thus was not mistaken about it. However, that man did not take Chen Xiaobei's advice seriously. He smiled confidently.

"This flame doesn't even burn my hand. If I'm not wrong, this is probably similar to a firefly! Do you have the slightest common sense? And you're still pretending to be a know-it-all? Truly hilarious…"

*Thud!*

The beetle that was held in that guy's hands suddenly made a muffled sound! Then, the green flames spread to his arm and burned vigorously. Within a blink of an eye, his entire palm turned into ash and scattered to the wind! What was more frightening was that there were countless luminous green sparks flying everywhere around that guy's face. His whole body was set on fire!

It took only a few seconds for that lively strong person that was in the last phase of Qi Refining stage, to be reduced to ash. The night's wind dispersed the ash to the surroundings, as though erasing the person's existence completely.

 "My… My God…"

The crowd that was more than eager to mock Chen Xiaobei earlier now looked like fools, all frozen in place. The timid ones almost peed their pants. Even the three deputy inspectors had never seen or heard of such a bizarre thing during their ten-year stint in Jianghu!

 "Xiaobei, what is going on here?"

Luo Puti was badly shaken. Although she was powerful, she had no idea what Voodoo was. If Chen Xiaobei did not pull her aside, she would have caught that bug to have a closer look at it! If so, she would be the one reduced to ash!

Meanwhile, everyone around them had the same bewildered expression as Luo Puti. Moments ago, they were mocking Chen Xiaobei's words, but were now afraid of whatever Chen Xiaobei would say!
