“Your family head? Oh…you mean, the boss of the Hu family, Hu Yiquan, right?” Huang Xiaolong said with a carefree smile. “That Hu Yiquan is also a Taoist. Taoists are quite rare in Binhai. I’d like to have some fun with him. I’ve dug up his family’s grave, so naturally, he won’t let it go easily…I was thinking about making sure I cut the weed and remove the roots. I didn’t expect him to come find me…Looks like the pillow has come just as I was about to fall asleep…hehe, just a pathetic paper spell, child’s play, and he dares to use it to embarrass himself?”
Huang Xiaolong allowed a smirk to tug at his lips and flicked his fingers continuously.
Whoo whoo whoo whoo
A cluster of pure Taoist Samadhi True Fire, like a flurry of petals thrown by a heavenly maiden, erupted and sped out!
The paper police officers caught fire as soon as they touched the flames. Even the vengeful spirits attached to these paper dolls were wrapped up in the flames, burning and unable to escape.
“Ah !!!”
The horrifying and heart-wrenching screams rang out. In no time, piles of black ashes emitting a foul odor littered the ground, mixed with spots of blackened blood.
“Little Long…it’s so stinky” Song Yuru covered her nose and said.
“Yes, dear wife, I’ve burnt quite a number of vengeful spirits, of course it stinks.” Huang Xiaolong chuckled, and then flexed his muscles. “My dear, take the subway to school now, stay in your dorm tonight.”
“Ah? Little Long…what do you mean?” Song Yuru was genuinely puzzled.
“My dear, it’s time for me to take care of the root of the problem.” Huang Xiaolong laughingly said. “I’m not done with the matters in the inner city village yet. I need to deal with the head of the Hu family. He’s a Taoist with some skills, evil-minded and perverse. If I don’t take him out this time, he will sooner or later cause more trouble, endangering untold lives.”
“Oh…Little Long… you’re right. The most wicked member of the Hu family should be taken out… Although…” Having witnessed Huang Xiaolong’s monstrous abilities, Song Yuru did not think that Hu Yiquan could pose any real threat to Huang Xiaolong. “Do you know where to find Hu Yiquan?”
“No need to worry, dear. I already know where he is hiding.” Huang Xiaolong laughed. “There are traces of his residual energy attached to the paper dolls he made. With these clues, I can find him. And…he’s still in the city village, he didn’t run away.”
“Little Long, I will go with you!” Song Yuru volunteered.
This time, Huang Xiaolong did not agree with Song Yuru. “Dear, be obedient, hurry and take the subway to school. I will come find you after I deal with the Hu family’s head.”
Seeing the serious expression on Huang Xiaolong’s face, Song Yuru knew it was useless to argue. She then willingly gave Huang Xiaolong an encouraging kiss.
Of course, Huang Xiaolong accepted gratefully. After the kiss, he embraced Song Yuru and personally accompanied her to the subway station.
Leaving the subway station, Huang Xiaolong checked the time, it was 8 PM. He licked his lips, and headed towards the inner city village.
The moon was high in the sky!
The inner city village was backed by a continuous mountain range.
On a hill covered with shrubs and wild trees,
A short middle-aged man, wearing a Taoist robe, with a Peach Wood Sword on his back sat cross-legged on a vertical rock.
It was Hu Yiquan!
Hu Yiquan’s face, illuminated by the moonlight, looked especially grim. His eyes flashed with vicious, violent light, just like an injured beast.
“Bastard! I will make you pay! You desecrated my ancestors’ graves, and my beloved son died because of you…And now, the city has set up a special investigation team to look into me. I have to flee Binhai like a dog…This grudge, is utterly irreconcilable! Even the waters of China’s lakes and rivers cannot wash it away!!!”
“Ahem Since our grudge is so deep, why don’t we settle it once and for all? As the saying goes, revenge is a dish best served immediately. You really are pitiful…” a languid voice sounded.
Under the bright moonlight, a young farmer dressed in a decent shirt, strolled leisurely up the mountain path.
“You!!!!!” Hu Yiquan had an expression of utter rage.
Originally, he had some apprehension towards the person who had desecrated his family’s grave. After all, there was a zombie guardian, and anyone who could cross this barrier and directly attack, was certainly not ordinary.
Therefore, Hu Yiquan made a bunch of paper dolls possessed by vengeful spirits to provoke them. He only did it to buy himself enough time to heat his escape.
A house without firewood could be found even from the lush green mountains.
Hu Yiquan believed that no matter how powerful his opponent was, once he escaped from Binhai and requested help from his fellow disciples, or even his master, they could certainly avenge him!
He didn’t expect his opponent to find his hiding place and seek him out proactively!
However, seeing Huang Xiaolong in person, he was not particularly concerned.
‘I thought it was someone with an extraordinary talent! He’s just a young man! He seems to have gotten through because there was something wrong with those zombie guardians! Fine, since he’s here, I’bll finish him!’ Hu Yiquan glared vengefully at Huang Xiaolong.
“Huh? Weird…” Huang Xiaolong stopped ten steps in front of Hu Yiquan and observed him. “I see that your facial fate line is discontinuous and full of wrinkles. It signifies bad luck… It is said that people with such faces don’t live past 25, but you look at least around 40. It’s strange that you’re still alive”
“Eh? You little mongrel, didn’t expect you to know so much… Well, it doesn’t matter, I fight against fate, I refine the souls of people who have yin fate and forcibly prolong my life! What can you do about it?” Hu Yiquan had a cruel expression on his face.
“Oh? You are a human, yet you consume spirits to prolong your life?” Huang Xiaolong’s eyes changed slightly, “Those who died at your hands must have been numerous, right?”
“Ahahaha! Kill ten people, devour ten ghosts, and prolong life for three years. I started to change my fate against heaven at 23 years old, and I’m 46 years old this year. How many people do you think I have killed?” Hu Yiquan slowly stood up from the rock and chuckled sinisterly. “The number of people who died at my hands is more than just hundreds. To kill one person is a crime, to kill ten thousand is a feat! Butcher nine million and you’re a hero’s hero!”
“Oh…” Huang Xiaolong nodded his head, a murderous intent surged up in his heart like a fountain!
This man murders innocents, consumes their spirits, he’s completely deranged!
If he doesn’t die, it’s a violation of heaven’s will!
“By the way, what’s the relationship between you and perverse Zhou’s?” Huang Xiaolong suddenly asked.
“What? You mean my eighteenth junior brother?” Hu Yiquan’s expression stiffened, then he grew even more fierce and violent. “Heard that my eighteenth junior brother disappeared without a trace and his toy shop has been sealed off by the police…So it was you who did it! Great! Although the eighteenth junior brother was lacking in talent in Dao cultivation, he was deeply loved by our master. You killed eighteenth junior brother! You deserve to die a thousand times!”
Finishing his speech, Hu Yiquan jumped down from the rock, a furious killing intent surged out from him uncontrollably.
