Zombie Bodyguard

Chapter 1121: Triggering Mutation


Ten skeletons surrounded her, attacking indiscriminately. Yet, when their weapons reached above Xiao Manxuan's head, they suddenly halted. The Skull War Generals had no consciousness and only attacked; it was evident they didn't stop on their own.

A semi-transparent fiery energy field had appeared around Xiao Manxuan's body, easily blocking the attacks of the ten Skull War Generals.

"How strange, it's not a Protective Barrier, nor Protective True Qi. It seems like a spontaneous energy field. Is that really a Zombie Gu on Xuanxuan?" Zhang Lingyu wondered aloud.

"Of course, it is a Zombie Gu, and it has evolved. But transforming into a Half Zombie shouldn't produce this effect, could it be..." Lin Tian said, moving his body forward.

Charlotte immediately pressed a dagger against his neck and said coldly, "I advise you not to act rashly. My Soul-devouring Blade is eager to taste your fresh blood."

Lin Tian glanced at her. Honestly, the closer he got to Charlotte, the more he felt her beauty, but he still sneered, "You might as well try and see if your Soul-devouring Blade can kill me."

"I'm in no rush. You all are becoming more interesting. I want to see who this little girl really is, able to easily block my ten generals. If I'm entertained, I might even consider taking you under my wing, letting you keep your little lives," Charlotte said unhurriedly.

As she spoke, the scene changed again. Xiao Manxuan slowly raised her head with a cold expression. Her usual playful smile had disappeared, and her originally black pupils had changed, turning fiery red.

When transforming into a Half Zombie, a person's eyes become blood-red, but Xiao Manxuan's turned fiery red, as if red flames were swirling around. Just looking at it seemed as if you'd be burned by them.

Lin Tian frowned deeply, Xiao Manxuan's change was completely different from a normal Half Zombie state. How could it be this way?

The Skull War Generals did not care about any changes, and the Bronze Halberd General nearby mercilessly slashed down. The sharp halberd blade aimed at Xiao Manxuan's head in the blink of an eye, but a small, fair hand stopped the Bronze Halberd.

Xiao Manxuan actually grabbed the edge of the Bronze Halberd barehanded. With a twist, the bronze blade made a crisp "tink" sound and snapped in two.

Is this still the same delicate little girl? Lin Tian's eyes widened; this momentum was simply overwhelmingly invincible.

The attacks from the other nine Skull War Generals came again. Facing the siege once more, Xiao Manxuan suddenly lifted her head and let out a strange cry, the sound clear and piercing, as if it could shatter gold and split stone.

The flames in her eyes flared up suddenly, her hair flying without wind. Under Lin Tian and Zhang Lingyu's stunned gazes, her originally glossy black hair turned fiery red in an instant. Careful observation would reveal that every strand of hair seemed to be burning with flames, her flowing hair dancing like a blazing flame.

Her body also began to shine with a red energy, and the attacking ten Skull War Generals, along with their warhorses, were all knocked flying.

"You bullied Lin Tian, all of you should die..." The voice that came from Xiao Manxuan's mouth was different from her usual lively tone, as if it came from the Nine Heavens, coldly pronouncing others' death.

Xiao Manxuan stepped forward, seeming to walk normally, yet in the next moment, she appeared in front of the Bronze Halberd General, pressing a palm onto the skull warhorse's head.

Red flames spread out from her palm, following the horse's bones, the red flames engulfed all the bones, and together with the Skull War General on its back, burned bright.

Man and horse together, turned to ashes in no more than a breath, without even emitting black smoke, completely annihilated.

"Such powerful strength, it's unstoppable!" Lin Tian exclaimed.

"An extremely strange flame, capable of burning even the Evil Qi," Charlotte said expressionlessly, though her eyes finally showed a hint of shock.

Zhang Lingyu stared intently at the fiery red flames on Xiao Manxuan, as if recalling something.

Xiao Manxuan did not stop after eliminating one Skull War General. Her form moved once again, leaving a fiery red shadow, arriving in front of the general wielding a hammer. Before the general could react, Xiao Manxuan slapped a palm on the horse's head.

Unsurprisingly, both the hammer-wielding general and its horse met their end silently, burned to ashes by the fiery red flames.

When she was about to continue attacking, Miss Zhang woke up, seeing the devastation around her and that the protective barrier was gone.

"Xuanxuan, you... stop immediately!" Miss Zhang shouted loudly, terrified upon seeing her sister's condition, attempting to stop Xiao Manxuan from continuing to kill.

Yet Xiao Manxuan seemed not to hear her sister's call, still striking a palm towards a Skull Warhorse. The originally formidable war steed couldn't withstand Xiao Manxuan's attack and soon turned to ashes.

"Xuanxuan, stop at once, or else you'll lose your life!" Miss Zhang cried out, using the bit of recovered True Qi to flash before Xiao Manxuan, blocking her path.

Xiao Manxuan finally stopped; she glanced at Miss Zhang, yet her face remained cold. The Xiao Manxuan who loved to act like a spoiled child with her sister now seemed as if she didn't recognize her.

But Xiao Manxuan only paused for a few seconds, her form moved around Miss Zhang and released another palm, striking a Skull War General. She seemed to have gone mad with killing; any skeleton close to her, whether ordinary Skeleton Soldier or Skull War General, was mercilessly eliminated.

Miss Zhang just attempted to mobilize her True Qi to chase after her sister, but as soon as the True Qi moved, she spat a mouthful of blood, exhausting the hard-earned recovery of some strength and True Qi once again.

"Sister, stop..." Miss Zhang inserted her sword into the ground, struggling to stand, weakly calling out, no longer able to stop the events from unfolding.

If Lin Tian didn't understand what was happening by now, he'd be better off buying tofu and bashing his head against a wall. Little Zi had modified Xiao Manxuan, triggering the unknown energy within her body to erupt.

Under the dual influence of this unknown energy and Little Zi, Xiao Manxuan had transformed into what she was now. But at least with the unknown energy overpowering, she hadn't grown zombie fangs.

Last time, due to Xiao Manxuan practicing Ancient Martial, she accidentally triggered the unknown energy within her, nearly costing her life. Fortunately, Miss Zhang's master was there. But this time, the eruption was even stronger, and she could even use the energy to fight.

"Interesting, this little girl's body hides an unusual energy. It's just a pity that the energy is uncontrollable. The best outcome might be her bursting apart, maybe taking her sister with her in the explosion."

Charlotte squinted her beautiful eyes, a supposedly charming gesture, but with her cold tone, it sent shivers down one's spine. This western vampire woman was too cold-blooded.
