"Ye Xingchen, his actions have nothing to do with me." An Zhiguo began to panic.
"Unfortunately, he has already extended his reach to the Xia family. You say it has nothing to do with you?" Ye Xingchen's smile gradually widened: "Go in peace. I will send him to reunite with you soon."
An Zhiguo struggled to his feet and ran outside as fast as he could.
A gust of wind blew, and two leaves drifted down from the tree. Accompanied by a wisp of true energy, the two leaves suddenly froze in mid-air.
With a hiss, the leaves suddenly turned into streaks of light, passing through An Zhiguo's back.
*Pfft...* An Zhiguo's fleeing movements froze instantly. His eyes widened, and blood flowed from his mouth. He stood there, his body trembling violently.
A master of celestial phenomena can condense his energy into power, and everything around him can become his weapon. Two leaves pierced through An Zhiguo's chest, instantly destroying his life force.
"Go and reunite with your son in peace," Ye Xingchen said as she passed by him.
With a thud, An Zhiguo fell heavily to the ground.
At the Xia family mansion, several corpses lay on the ground, none of them bearing hearts.
The killing intent emanating from Su Ruochu had not completely faded, and Xia Xueming stared intently at the corpses on the ground.
“This is a living corpse, an evil technique. After hanging a person upside down, a cross is cut into their chest, causing their blood to flow backward. It is used for human sacrifice.” Xia Xueming murmured, “The living person bleeds to death, and the corpse has been soaked in medicine and hung upside down.”
"After forty-nine days, it is infused with forbidden spells and incantations, and then it can be used by people to kill and rob."
"Who in Yanjing has such methods?" Su Ruochu felt a chill run down her spine. Even though she had comprehended Confucianism and Taoism in Xia Xueming's study and her strength had reached the Heavenly Realm, she still felt a chill run down her spine when she heard Xia Xueming's words.
"Hmph, besides Zhou Xuanji of the Zhou family of Xuanmen, who else has such powerful methods?" Xia Xueming said coldly, "He was covering the way for his son-in-law An Zhiguo, but unfortunately, An Zhiguo can't leave now."
Tang Yixue and Tang Jin were driving to a villa in the suburbs when suddenly, *whoosh*, a crossbow bolt shot out from ahead, shattering the car window. The driver fell onto the steering wheel, and the car accelerated, crashing into the roadside.
"Jump out of the car!" Tang Yixue shouted, unbuckled her seatbelt with a snap, pushed open the car door, and rolled over.
Tang Jin's reaction speed was only slightly slower than hers, and the two of them rolled onto the ground one after the other.
Thump... The car crashed into a large tree by the roadside, the front of the car was crushed, and the driver was seen slumped over the steering wheel, his chest pierced by a crossbow bolt, already dead.
Tang Yixue drew a gun from her waist and looked around warily.
Originally, she was escorted home by two cars, one in front and one behind, but now those two cars are nowhere to be seen, and the people accompanying her are probably in grave danger.
"Sis, are you alright?" Tang Jin was extremely nervous. This guy was a spoiled brat who had never encountered a situation like this before.
"Make a call, call for help." Tang Yixue was extremely calm.
"No signal." Tang Jin took out his phone and was dumbfounded.
As soon as he finished speaking, more than ten dark figures approached the two of them. These figures staggered, but moved extremely fast.
"Stop!" Tang Yixue said sternly. "Take another step forward and I'll shoot."
However, these undead are controlled by the commands of the controllers, and are merely soulless shells, completely unafraid of life and death.
Bang bang bang, Tang Yixue fired without hesitation.
Having received shooting training, she was an extremely accurate shot. However, to her disbelief, the 'people' in front of her were only slightly slowed down by the bullets she fired, and they did not fall to the ground. Instead, they attacked the two of them at an even faster speed.
"This..." Tang Jin was dumbfounded. Seeing the zombies rushing over, he still showed his manly responsibility at the critical moment and shouted, "Sister, be careful."
Tang Jin stood in front of Tang Yixue, then grabbed a living corpse and tried to knock it to the ground.
But the zombie's claws instantly pierced his flesh. Tang Jin screamed in agony as black blood gushed from his arms, and the black aura spread in all directions along his wounds.
"Xiao Jin!" Tang Yixue cried out anxiously. She raised her gun and fired several shots, hitting the vital points of the living corpse holding Tang Jin, but to no avail.
Moreover, a group of zombies quickly gathered around her, and a crisis suddenly appeared.
Just then, a green shadow suddenly swept through the air. The figure pointed into the air, and the sharp energy forced back the living corpse that was grabbing Tang Jin.
With a flick of her wrist, she threw Tang Jin behind her and waved her right hand in the air. Dozens of willow-leaf knives suddenly floated in mid-air. With a crisp sound, these willow-leaf knives transformed into sharp hidden weapons, spreading out in a fan shape.
With a series of thuds, a large number of zombies collapsed.
The newcomer was Si Qianyu, who stared coldly at the fallen zombie.
The undead struggled to their feet, then silently roared and continued their attack.
Si Qianyu reached for her waist with both hands, and with a whisk and the Seven Tribulations in hand, she immediately unleashed a gust of wind with the two sharp blades, one long and one short.
With a series of thuds, wherever the sword light pointed, the living corpses fell to the ground.
Tang Jin was stunned, and Si Qianyu's heroic image stirred up waves in his heart.
Wherever the sword light reached, more than ten zombies fell to the ground again.
But these things are extremely resilient; even if they fall to the ground and are missing limbs, they can still stand up.
Moreover, more than a dozen zombies emerged from the woods on one side.
"Withdraw." Si Qianyu's expression hardened. She flipped her two sharp blades and cleanly chopped off the heads of the two zombies. The two zombies fell to the ground with a thud and struggled for a long time before moving still.
"Who are you?" Tang Yixue's hand gripping the gun was covered in cold sweat. Even though the other party had come to rescue her, she still had to remain vigilant.
"Si Qianyu, Ye Xingchen's people." Si Qianyu protected the two as they retreated. With a flick of her whisk, she nearly cleaved a walking corpse in two, but the other living corpses roared and surged forward.
Just then, a figure swept across the void; it was Ye Xingchen.
With a flick of his right hand, a tree branch appeared in his hand. With a shake of his hand, the leaves on the branch fell off, and a straight, smooth stick appeared in his hand.
As Ye Xingchen moved, he surged into the crowd, becoming a blur as he weaved through the zombies.
With a series of muffled thuds, Ye Xingchen had already passed through the midst of the living corpses.
He knocked a hole in the forehead of each zombie, and where he struck, a blood-red talisman flashed a few times before disappearing.
As the talisman disappeared, the zombies collapsed to the ground.
"These are corpses, manipulated by someone using esoteric arts. The talismans on their foreheads are the incantations that drive them. Once destroyed, they will lose their lethality," Ye Xingchen said calmly.
