"Whether it's Yuxiu or Qiyouxiu, they are all backup hands given to me by Lao Qin."
Now that Yuxiu has returned to Chihai Village, for a while, I don't have the ability to let her rest. Moreover, I don't know if she has been controlled by the other evil thoughts.
Qi Youyou... the residual soul that took root in the corpse, pulled me out of the nightmares, and the part of that headless woman's soul, in order to save me, was devoured and controlled by the plague ghost.
To me, the plague ghost is not just a secret of the past, but an enemy in front of my eyes!
Similarly, he won't let me off.
"Is it you, the plague ghost?" He You Tian's tone was cold, looking at Ji Zhanglaoshi.
"He's not; the plague ghost hasn't appeared, senior brother. If that ghost thing comes, we'll really have a hard time leaving. I don't know if he's hiding in the shadows; we need to deal with them cleanly and swiftly!" I suppressed my thoughts and quickly spoke up.
He You Tian's face became even more serious, and he suddenly stepped forward.
Looking ahead, his two hands were pressing against Yin, and his five fingers were hidden in the armor!
A shiver ran through my heart. He You Tian was reciting the Sky Thunder Technique!
Clearly, he is really angry!
"Retreat!" Seven Senior responded very quickly, nearly retreating to the back of the coffin. Si Yan and I both retreated simultaneously, and Laoren Gong climbed onto Si Yan's shoulder. He was excited.
"Fight! Fight!" The scream of Laoren Gong was exceptionally sharp.
Ji Zhanglaoshi was the first to charge forward, and the other Taoists rushed towards He You Tian like a tide.
What was even more terrifying was that a black hole appeared under He You Tian's feet.
When the plague ghost was on me, I used this move several times. There would be more fierce ghosts in the earth's qi, and they would grab hold of the person at the mouth of the hole and pull them in.
But at this moment, He You Tian's feet flashed with a hint of lightning arc, achieving a subtle balance with the earth's qi. He didn't pursue it.
All the Taoists, in fact, had already become ghost Taoists. They were less than three meters away from He You Tian, and two hands appeared beneath his feet, pale and deathly still.
"Dan Tian Huoyun, awe-inspiring in the universe, up to control evil qi, down to dispel malicious aura, flashing like lightning, the wind without stopping, true nature changes, paying respect to the emperor. Hurry, quick as law!"
The spell voice was coming out of He You Tian's mouth.
Without a breeze in the courtyard, his hair moved automatically as if by itself, his flowing white hair making the red Taoist robe exceptionally striking.
A heavy sound echoed from the sky.
Another crackling sound, however, came from He You Tian himself.
All of this happened incredibly fast. He You Tian spun around on the spot, and dozens of dazzling talismans shot out, each aimed at a ghost Taoist!
Bang!
Bang!
Rumbles of thunder!
Those talismans, like bolts of lightning falling from the sky, shattered the ghost Taoists almost simultaneously into grey mist, falling to the ground.
The black qi on the ground kept twisting, engulfing it.
The hands that had appeared beneath He You Tian's feet vanished instantly, as if they had been scared away...
"Humph!"
He You Tian suddenly grabbed something down with one hand and then pulled it up with all his might!
What came into view was a malevolent ghost with two bodies and two heads, their arms entwined, being pulled out of the earth's qi!
Siye!
The ancient city god temple of Jin Yang, devoured by Siye!
Last time, the reason why Uncle Huang was misunderstood by Han Zizi was because he sensed Siye's presence nearby. He searched through Chang Feng Taoist Temple, and it just so happened that Si Yan had taken away Han Qu's soul at that time.
However, after being infused with earth qi, Siye's power was so strong that even Master Wei Youming, who had nurtured it, paid a great price to barely keep himself and Wei Youming alive.
Siye launched a surprise attack, but He You Tian managed to grab it out in real-time.
It can be imagined just how formidable He You Tian's strength must be!
"The official ghost of the city god temple's underworld, how dare you associate with the plague ghost? You should answer for your crime!"
The thunderous question echoed, and even I felt a buzzing in my head.
Siye struggled and twisted frantically, appearing extremely painful.
He You Tian's hand was constantly emitting silver-white arcs like lightning, causing damage to Siye's shoulder.
"You..."
"Four Rules Mountain..."
Siye's voice was slightly trembling, as if there was a trace of clarity.
It was indeed clarity.
"You... what crime do you deserve!" The sharp roar echoed from Siye's two mouths.
He was asking He You Tian a question.
"Overthrow the Heavenly Circulation!" He You Tian shouted coldly, and he slapped hard with the other hand on the top of Siye's head.
There was a thunderous, muffled sound as Siye seemed to disintegrate into dust, scattering in all directions.
These dust particles were not absorbed by the earth's qi.
By this point, not even a tea cup of time had passed, and all of these ghosts were dispersed by He You Tian.
The earth's qi on the ground dissipated completely, and the qi in the sky also vanished without a trace...
Old Gong, who had been roaring fiercely earlier, was now as still as a wooden chicken.
Si Yan admired him incredibly, and the look in his eyes even had a trace of reverence.
Seven Senior was a bit weaker, with a trace of other emotions in his eyes.
My heart was pounding wildly as I walked out of the house and looked up at the sky.
My back was soaked through with cold sweat.
Siye... had indeed shown a glimmer of clarity under He You Tian's capture.
He You Tian interrogated him.
He questioned He You Tian instead...
In He You Tian's view, Siye overturning the Heavenly Circulation was one thing. In my opinion, however, it was quite different...
Siye must have seen me here. He thought I was from the Four Regulations Mountain. Since the plague ghost was on me, he considered it a dereliction of duty on the part of the Four Regulations Mountain, which is why he asked his question.
Fortunately... He You Tian's palm dispatched him.
If Siye had been allowed to speak for a few more words, my secret might have been exposed.
However, Siye was probably beyond salvation. Having been fully consumed by the earth's qi, He You Tian had no choice but to strike him without mercy.
"How strong is the degree of his dissipation? Can he still congeal?"
I squinted slightly, trying not to give away any clues.
Laoren Gong didn't stay on Si Yan's shoulder and returned to my shoulder.
"Every night spirit around the world is only a part of their soul, needing the burning of incense at the city god temple to bring them together."
"This Siye's soul has dispersed and will not be dominated by the plague ghost. He is no longer the Siye of the city god temple. The city god temple can summon a new one, completely different from this one," He You Tian explained to me.
He released his hands and dispelled the Sky Thunder Technique.
The cold sweat finally trickled down my back, and my hanging heart settled.
In that case, no one but the plague ghost himself could reveal my secret.
"They came so quickly, how did they find us?" He You Tian squinted his eyes slightly, his voice filled with contemplation.
"Either we left a trace when we came down the mountain and they followed us in secret, or there's some other reason." Seven Senior continued.
My heart skipped a beat.
Other reasons?
I reached for my phone, and a wave of cold swept over me.
The existence of the city god's officials is somewhat connected to relevant departments in Jin Yang. Manager Yang calling me served one purpose, but could they also find me through the phone?
I have been extremely cautious, but still one mistake out of a hundred...
Turn off the phone immediately. In fact, the best course of action would be to use other means to send the phone to another location, which could divert attention. However, there is too much information here that cannot be leaked.
"It might be a trail I left behind..."
"I had just opened my mouth to explain this reason when..."
Laoren Gong suddenly licked his lips and said, "No, it's not that!"
