"If we're not completely sure, we'd better not go out yet. Let's think of another method," Chen Hao said.
Upon hearing the hint of retreat in Chen Hao's words, Xie Xiaofeng found it quite unbelievable. If it had been any other time, Chen Hao would have fearlessly jumped out of the Nether Acupoint to fight a desperate battle with the enemy. This hesitation was likely due to their opponent being a bat, and furthermore, such an enormous one.
"I just hope we won't encounter any rat demons or rat spirits in the future," Xie Xiaofeng joked, "otherwise this bastard will lose his fighting ability again."
"Don't you still have us?" Chen Hao glanced sideways at Xie Xiaofeng as he spoke.
Suddenly, just then, a green light flashed from the Nether King Orchid Heart above their heads.
Chen Hao was taken aback and asked Ye Yuqiao, "What's going on? Why is there a green light?"
"There have been many green lights appearing already," Xie Xiaofeng said before Ye Yuqiao could respond, looking curiously at the Nether King Orchid Heart, "What does this magical orchid represent? Does it symbolize the enchanted power in your left eye or the seal on the enchanted power?"
Chen Hao and Ye Yuqiao exchanged a smile, then muttered to themselves, "This orchid represents my girlfriend, the fourth generation Underworld King Yuqiao."
"I'm not clear on that either," Chen Hao answered.
"Suddenly, I feel a bit hungry!" Tang Jing, who had been silently sitting to one side, spoke up, "Ever since eating a few cookies this morning, I haven't had anything else."
As she spoke, Tang Jing sat down next to Ye Yuqiao, resting her head on Ye Yuqiao's shoulder, and pressed her body close to her.
Ye Yuqiao turned her head to look at Tang Jing with a smile, saying, "Hang in there a little longer. Once that bat demon has gone far enough, we'll go out and get some food from the car."
At that moment, Xie Xiaofeng also sat down on the ground and took out the Mermaid's Tear that Huang Yue had given him, wiping it on his left eye before breaking into a silly, dazed smile.
"Ah!" Chen Hao sighed helplessly, then muttered to himself, "How should we deal with that bat demon? Xiao Feng can't withstand the bat's toxic gas; Tang Jing only knows how to catch ghosts; Yuqiao's Nether King's Power should be reserved for fighting King Mieji in a few days; and I get weak at the knees at the sight of bats. It seems I need to overcome my fear of rats sooner rather than later!"
Ten o'clock at night.
Just when Chen Hao and his comrades were at a loss, Ye Yuqiao suddenly felt the Demonic Qi of the Bat Demon King disappear.
In reality, the time for the Bat Demon King's first engagement with Chen Hao had come to an end, and it was the Cyclops Demon King's turn to face Chen Hao, so it had to leave immediately or be declared the loser.
"That bat demon has already left!" Ye Yuqiao announced.
"That's great," Tang Jing said, her face lighting up with joy, "then let's go quickly to the car to find some food."
Afterwards, they left the Nether Acupoint and returned to the tunnel.
"You guys go ahead and eat. I need to hurry up and fix the car," Xie Xiaofeng said, "If possible, let's rush to Da Zhou Town to rest overnight, and think of a way to deal with the bat demon before seeking it out again."
Chen Hao scratched his head, looking distressed as he said, "Then I'll go get a few bat corpses first to see if I can overcome my psychological barrier."
"Boyfriend," Ye Yuqiao held Chen Hao's hand, "don't push yourself too hard; we can think of other ways. If it really comes down to it, I can use my power."
Ye Yuqiao was cut off before she could finish when Chen Hao lightly covered her mouth with his hand, then whispered in her ear, "You need to save your Nether King's Power for fighting King Mieji in a few days!"
"Alright!" Ye Yuqiao agreed reluctantly, letting go of Chen Hao's hand.
Half a minute later, after a psychological struggle, Chen Hao finally steeled his heart to squat down and then reached out to grab a bat that Xie Xiaofeng had burned to a crisp with fire in the morning.
The moment his fingertips touched the bat, his scalp went numb, a buzzing sounded in his head, all his fine body hair stood on end, and his heart instantly sped up to the extreme.
Immediately, Chen Hao's hand retracted, and he sat down on the ground with his entire backside, his face deathly pale, breathing rapidly. After a pause, he shook his head, his face full of loss, "I can't do it, I really can't handle it!"
At that moment, Ye Yuqiao's soft hands came from behind and helped Chen Hao up, then hugged his waist from behind, softly comforting, "Boyfriend, you've already done really well, at least you dared to touch it."
Chen Hao nodded slightly, then closed his eyes, using the gentle comfort of Ye Yuqiao to calm himself.
Fifteen minutes later.
Xie Xiaofeng had changed the tire, and Chen Hao had recovered from the shock he had experienced, while no demons approached from the surroundings.
Finally, the Exorcism Special Vehicle left the sunless mountain tunnel.
However, not long after they left the tunnel, everyone sensed a strong beastly aura suddenly appearing and approaching at high speed.
Xie Xiaofeng immediately hit the brakes!
In the moment before the van came to a complete stop, a puff of green smoke also drifted to a few meters in front of the car, and then the Cyclops Demon King appeared.
Seeing the Cyclops Demon King with only one eye, which was located on its nose, Chen Hao, Xie Xiaofeng, and Tang Jing were all stunned, while Ye Yuqiao furrowed her brows and after thinking for two seconds, said coldly, "This is an ancient cyclops!"
"Cyclops! What an apt name!"
Suddenly, a green light flashed in the Cyclops Demon King's eye, and then the eye, as big as a pomegranate, slowly turned a circle.
"Ah!" Tang Jing's frightened voice rang out, "What's happening? Why has the car flipped over!"
The Exorcism Special Vehicle was slowly flipping upside down.
"Just now I saw the cyclops's eye turn a circle; could it be related to this?" Xie Xiaofeng said, his voice very urgent.
At this time, Chen Hao and Ye Yuqiao, sitting in the back row and not wearing seat belts, were squeezed to one side, Chen Hao holding Ye Yuqiao tight, fearful she might bump even slightly.
And then, the Cyclops Demon King let out a loud laugh, and once again a green light flashed in his eye, and the eyeball rotated again, but this time the rotation speed was clearly accelerating.
"Ah!" Tang Jing's scream tore through the quiet of the mountains.
Following that came a "bang," as the roof of the Exorcism Special Vehicle hit the ground, shattering all the glass on the vehicle.
"Haha, this is so much fun!" the Cyclops Demon King laughed, "Apart from Chen Hao, the other three must be severely injured by now."
"Fun my ass!" Chen Hao's angry voice suddenly came from inside the van, followed by a "whoosh" as he transformed into a Sword Qi and exited the van, confronting the Cyclops Demon King.
"You must be Chen Hao! Indeed, you are formidable!" The Cyclops Demon King said, "I thought so, Bat Number Three wouldn't kill you that easily."
"Bat Number Three? Is that the bat demon that looks as ugly as you? So you're all in this together!"
