A few minutes ago.
Mingzhuo decided to conduct the summoning ritual in Jiang Yunli's office.
Judging from the account of the shadow ghost, Shen Ruodi is capable of responding to the believers' call.
Mingzhuo is certainly not a believer, but she knows a lot. She also thought of this point, so she specially prepared a summoning talisman today.
Knowing the year of one's birth or death makes it possible to summon that evil spirit and establish some kind of contract or deal.
The more valuable the offering, the higher the success rate of the summoning.
Although the Shadow Ghost indicated that He Wangyao could be used as a sacrifice for the vegetarian offering, Ming Zhuo walked over first just as He Wangyao was about to stand on it.
When it comes to entrapment, no one is more suitable than herself.
It got completely dark, and with no electricity in the room, the light only got dimmer.
A gust of wind came from nowhere, and the candlelight flickered wildly. The normally sweltering weather suddenly felt like the dead of winter, so cold that people shivered.
A sinister and terrifying aura swept over them, and figures gradually appeared behind the candlelight.
The pressure emanating from the Ghost King level was something an ordinary Celestial Master could not withstand. Hou Zhihui was so frightened that his heart pounded wildly, but his whole body was so stiff that he didn't even dare to swallow.
He suddenly realized that he and everyone in the association had underestimated Shen Ruodi's power.
Didn't Jiang Yuncheng say he had fought Shen Ruodi and escaped unscathed with ease? What exactly happened?
"Hey, is it still popular to buy one get one free these days?" Mingzhuo suddenly asked.
Hou Zhihui's heart skipped a beat. Had he attracted two evil spirits?
He looked closely and exclaimed, "Fourth Young Master, what are you doing here! Right, hurry up and get the Money Sword to destroy this evil spirit!"
Jiang Yuncheng did not respond to his words, but stared at the man in front of him with a look of terror in his eyes and his body stiff.
Hou Zhihui followed his gaze and then saw that what the man was playing with in his hand was a money sword!
Thinking they were reinforcements, it turned out they were clearly hostages! Hou Zhihui decisively hid behind Ming Zhuo, no longer daring to utter a word.
Shen Ruodi casually placed his long, slender hands on Jiang Yuncheng's neck and spoke his first words, "Since you're so sincere, of course I'll give you a small gift."
Jiang Yuncheng's face turned deathly pale. Under the immense pressure, he lost the prestige of the Fourth Young Master Jiang and was left only with a deep, soul-deep fear of the person in front of him.
"Don't kill me..." He was like a lamb to the slaughter, unable even to completely undo the seal on the money sword by performing hand seals and incantations.
The coin sword, still bound by its seal, was like a toy in that man's hands; it couldn't even scratch him.
Ming Zhuo glanced at the hand that could snap Jiang Yuncheng's neck at any moment, and said calmly, "I'm sorry, I don't like this little gift."
"How about we talk? Do you choose to offer your neck directly for execution, or do you want me to beat you up before you offer your neck for execution?"
Shen Ruodi paused for a moment, then burst into laughter.
"You are a very interesting girl. Although I can't see what you look like, you must have beautiful eyes, just like Ah Yin."
Li Wenhe noticed from the beginning that Shen Ruodi's eyes seemed to have some problems. Could it be that he was injured by Ming Zhuo's sword last night?
That would be even better. He secretly clenched the talisman in his hand, ready to launch a sneak attack at any moment.
However, just as this thought crossed his mind, Shen Ruodi suddenly "looked" at him, and Li Wenhe was startled, taking a step back.
He Wangyao: "What do you mean? You're not after my boss's body, are you?"
Shen Ruodi smiled and asked Ming Zhuo instead, "So, what is your wish? I can grant you any wish, as long as you offer your body and soul after it is done."
“My wish is to destroy you,” Mingzhuo said. “Then hurry up and kill yourself.”
Shen Ruodi paused for a moment, "Girls shouldn't always be fighting and killing. Aren't you curious about why I infiltrated the Xuanmen Association?"
Mingzhuo corrected, "It's the Xiangshi Xuanmen Association, thank you. This has nothing to do with me, I'm not from Xiangshi."
He paused, then continued, "But I can also guess. I guess you discovered that all the citizens were our informants, and like stray dogs with nowhere to go, you had no choice but to find a traitor to follow the Xiangshi Xuanmen Association. It's darkest under the lamp, you know. There's an exorcism ceremony going on outside, who would have thought that evil spirits were hiding here?"
Shen Ruodi's expression changed, clearly Ming Zhuo had hit the nail on the head.
After the wanted notice was issued, he noticed something was off about the way ordinary people were looking at him.
But he couldn't just kill all the ordinary people; that would be blatantly telling everyone where he was.
In the end, he had no choice but to hide in the Xiangshi Xuanmen Association.
“If I could, I wouldn’t want to confront you right now,” Shen Ruodi sighed.
Mingzhuo: "I'm going to confront you right now!"
Before she finished speaking, she attacked, but Shen Ruodi grabbed Jiang Yuncheng and quickly dodged.
"You don't even care about his life?" Shen Ruodi laughed. "What a cruel heart you have."
He Wangyao immediately realized something was wrong. This was clearly an attempt to make Mingzhuo hesitate and to morally blackmail him.
In a duel between masters, the worst thing you can do is hold back. He hurriedly chimed in, "You shameless bastard, boss, don't fall for it!"
Li Wenhe said coldly, "If you want to kill me, then kill me. Don't you think dragging this out is just a burden?"
Shen Ruodi was somewhat surprised. He simply kicked Jiang Yuncheng away and said with a smile, "Since that's the case, I'll spare his life and let him cause you trouble."
With no one in their way, the fight between the two became increasingly dangerous, and they soon went outside.
Li Wenhe had been wanting to rush in and help, but he found that he had no chance at all.
The two exchanged blows at an unbelievable speed.
Shen Ruodi suddenly exclaimed, "How do you know these moves? Who exactly are you? Where's Shadow Ah Xian?"
"Only now do you think of asking about your accomplices? Too late!" Ming Zhuo slashed Shen Ruodi's clothes with his sword.
A bloody gash appeared on the man's arm, and his face darkened completely. He had not only failed to gain any advantage in the fight, but had also suffered a minor injury.
He looked up at Mingzhuo, feeling as if his blood was about to boil.
With such excellent talent, she is just as gifted as Ah Yin back then.
What a wonderful vessel! It's perfect for nourishing Ah Yin's soul.
Unfortunately, the other party was determined to oppose them, leaving no room for compromise whatsoever.
He quickly made up his mind that he couldn't let her grow stronger. Even if it meant using forbidden techniques and risking mutual destruction, he was determined to kill her.
He harbored murderous intent and raised his hand to summon the Soul-Summoning Bell and the Soul-Gathering Bottle.
"If you insist on fighting to the death, then don't blame me for showing no mercy." He sighed, then smiled and said, "You should be content with having these two ancient treasures buried with you."
Mingzhuo: "You really talk too much nonsense. Don't you know that villains die from talking too much?"
A ringtone sounded in the dark. Mingzhuo was startled. Oh no, could it be Ah Xu calling?
Just then, a terrifying force, carrying the air along with it, attacked her.
