The girl's face darkened, and she turned and ran, only to be grabbed by Wang Zhiyi. Struggling to escape, she realized her own magical powers were far inferior to the demon before her. His transformation was even more perfect than hers. If it weren't for the physical contact, she wouldn't have realized Wang Zhiyi was a demon. Even now, she didn't know what kind of demon Wang Zhiyi was. She glared at Wang Zhiyi and said, "You and I are from the same clan. Your abilities are among the best in the entire clan, and you're actually hanging out with lowly humans and helping him deal with me!?"
Seeing Qiu Zimu approaching, Wang Zhiyi was afraid that the bamboo spirit would reveal his identity, so he tightened his grip on her throat, not giving her a chance to speak: "Shut up!"
Seeing Wang Zhiyi holding the monster, Qiu Zimu was stunned and asked, "How dare you catch her? No, no, how can you catch her? Isn't she a monster?"
"I lost both my parents when I was young, so I have to have some ability to protect myself." Wang Zhiyi said.
"Do you also know how to catch monsters and eliminate demons like Ye Jingan and Brother Liu?" Qiu Zimu asked.
"Yeah, I know a little." Wang Zhiyi nodded.
"No wonder you dared to talk about a one-on-one duel with Brother Liu." Qiu Zimu said unhappily, "You should have said it earlier. I was worried about you every time."
"I didn't encounter anything on the way that required my help, and I also said that I would protect you, but you never believed me..." Wang Zhiyi said aggrievedly.
"Okay, okay, I won't bother with you. What about her?" Qiu Zimu asked.
"You'd better not think about running away." Wang Zhiyi let her go and warned her not to reveal his identity.
"Who asked you to collect souls?" Liu Muzhe asked.
"If I want to become a human, I have to eat human souls." The girl covered her neck and stared at the few people warily.
"Do we look so easy to fool?" Wang Zhiyi sneered. "With your ability, you are simply unable to refine souls. If you eat a human soul, you will not be able to digest it and will be hurt by its resentment."
"I can't, but someone can help me!" said the girl.
"Who?" Liu Muzhe asked.
"Why should I tell you?" The girl turned her head away in disdain.
Wang Zhiyi's eyes darkened, and he lifted her up again: "Will you tell me or not?"
The bamboo spirit, after transforming into a human, was less than 1.6 meters tall. Wang Zhiyi easily grabbed her and lifted her up. The intense feeling of suffocation made her face bruised and red. Wang Zhiyi looked at her coldly, and the hand pinching her throat gradually tightened, as if he wanted to strangle her to death. Qiu Zimu was frightened by Wang Zhiyi's behavior.
Wang Zhiyi doesn't talk much, but he has a good personality and temper. He always takes whatever you say at face value. He is always soft-spoken and gentle to him. This is the first time Qiu Zimu has seen Wang Zhiyi's fierce side. He doesn't seem to be angry, and his face is expressionless, but looking at him makes one feel a chill down one's spine. Qiu Zimu called out softly, "Wang Zhiyi?"
"Yeah." Wang Zhiyi's expression and attitude changed 180 degrees, and he asked Qiu Zimu softly, "What's wrong?"
Qiu Zimu was stunned again. These were clearly two people.
Wang Zhiyi saw that Qiu Zimu's face was not right. He threw the bamboo spirit that was almost strangled to death to Liu Muze, patted Qiu Zimu's shoulder gently and asked: "What's wrong with you? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
"Ah?" Qiu Zimu came back to his senses, shook his head and said, "I'm fine, you go help Brother Liu."
Wang Zhiyi no longer cared about the bamboo spirit and stood beside Qiu Zimu to accompany him.
"Where is the soul bag?" Liu Muzhe asked.
"What soul bag is? I don't know." said the girl.
"Don't want to say? It seems that you are not scared by the strangulation just now." Liu Muzhe took out a talisman and placed it on her forehead. Just like the situation they encountered before, no matter what she asked, as long as it was related to the mysterious man, she could not say a word.
Liu Muze removed the talisman and sighed deeply. The bamboo spirit was nearly dead from the torture of these two spells, transformed from a human form into a tiny soul. Liu Muze took out the bottle and prepared to take her back first.
As soon as the bottle was opened, the soul was quickly sucked away. A familiar sound of laughter and death came from above the bamboo forest.
"It's you." Liu Muzhe walked quickly to Ye Jing'an, "What's the point of hiding? Come out!"
The laughter stopped, and a man in a black cloak appeared ten meters in front of them. The cloak was very large and covered his entire body tightly, and his face was hidden by a mask.
"Who are you?" Liu Muzhe asked.
"Who am I?" The mysterious man smiled and said, "Don't you know who I am?"
"You're the one who wants to steal Zimu's soul?" Wang Zhiyi's eyes turned cold as he rushed towards him. Wang Zhiyi's attack was ruthless, leaving no room for maneuver and going straight for his life.
But before his hand could touch the black-clad man's chest, it was stopped by a powerful force. Wang Zhiyi tried his best to grab it but couldn't. He pulled his hand back and gathered strength to pinch his neck, but the result was the same. Wang Zhiyi stared at the black-clad man in front of him in disbelief. He seemed to have underestimated his strength.
"You don't know your own limitations." The mysterious man tightened his grip and grabbed him from mid-air. "You are such a lowly creature! How dare you attack me? This is ridiculous, truly ridiculous."
The mysterious man disdained to pay any attention to him and slapped him away. Wang Zhiyi broke several rows of bamboo and fell heavily to the ground, clutching his chest.
"Wang Zhiyi!" Qiu Zimu ran over and hugged him in his arms. "How are you? What are you capable of?"
Wang Zhiyi vomited blood all over the floor. The bone in his chest that was hit had already fallen apart. He couldn't even speak. He vomited blood and said while holding back the pain: "It's okay..."
"Stop talking, stop talking!" Qiu Zimu released the little bugs, wanting them to crawl into Wang Zhiyi's body to check how badly he was injured. The bugs had just been placed on Wang Zhiyi from the Gu jar. When they came into contact with Wang Zhiyi, they were all like being burned by fire. They kept kicking their legs and flapping their arms to get back into the Gu jar. No matter how Qiu Zimu shook them, they were unwilling to come out.
"What's wrong with you guys?!" Qiu Zimu slammed the jar, "Hurry up!"
Qiu Zimu tried to persuade them and even tried to control them, but it was all in vain. The insects would rather disobey Qiu Zimu's spell and be tortured to death than go after Wang Zhiyi.
"Is the man in black so powerful? He scared you so much after slapping Wang Zhiyi?" Qiu Zimu asked.
Wang Zhiyi knew it but didn't say anything. He curled his lips and gently held Qiu Zimu's hand.
"Does it hurt? Just bear with it...Uncle Fan can treat the disease, I'll take you back!" Qiu Zimu picked the person up, using all his strength to suck milk, but he only took two steps before letting go. "Can't you eat less? I can't hold you!"
Wang Zhiyi no longer had the energy to speak, and just shook her head gently at him.
"What should I do? Brother Liu..." Qiu Zimu looked towards Liu Muzhe and Ye Jing'an. The three of them were confronting each other. Qiu Zimu didn't dare to go over and disturb them. For a moment, he was like a headless fly, standing there at a loss and anxious.
"I heard that you were looking for me everywhere and trying to ruin my plans?" said the mysterious man.
"What do you want to do?" Liu Muzhe gripped the sword tightly, ready to take action at any time.
"Why are you so anxious? I'll let you know sooner or later." The mysterious man said with a smile, "As for you, I really admire you! Liu Muze, you really have mastered the skill of seducing men. Back then, Ye Chen had a special liking for you, and now his descendants are also bewitched by you. Hahahahaha... I don't know how many men have been attracted by you over the years. You really don't refuse anyone, hahahahaha..."
"Bullshit!" Ye Jing'an was about to chop with his sword, but was stopped by Liu Muzhe.
If Liu Muze had heard this before, he would have rushed up to fight. However, now that Ye Jingan had trained him to be thicker-skinned, the mysterious man's provocative words were far inferior to Ye Jingan's unbearable words. Instead of getting angry, Liu Muze laughed and said, "Are you jealous?"
The mysterious man paused. Liu Muze's reaction was beyond his expectations: "You've gotten thick-skinned after sleeping with a man for too long. Haha, I really want to know how you act when a man is pinning you down."
Liu Muze's hand, which was holding Ye Jing'an's, was trembling slightly. Ye Jing'an could no longer bear it and swung his sword. The mysterious man only dodged but did not attack. After trying Ye Jing'an for a few rounds, he taunted him, "You have some of the charm of Ye Chenyi back then, but it's still far behind. However, you are much better at sleeping with men than your ancestors. You can even take away the people your ancestors slept with. Hahahahaha... Oh, not necessarily. Maybe he seduced you."
"Your mother..." Ye Jing'an's head was filled with blood from anger. He concentrated and swung his sword. The dead leaves on the ground were lifted up by the wind and swirled around Ye Jing'an. The dead leaves from all around gathered together, and even the fresh green leaves on the bamboo were blown by the wind, forming a huge vortex of bamboo leaves that tightly surrounded Ye Jing'an.
The mysterious man felt something was wrong and swung out a gust of wind to interrupt Ye Jing'an's energy gathering, but he didn't expect that the fragile and weak bamboo leaves actually swallowed up the energy he swung out.
Ye Jing'an pointed his sword at the man in black, and all the bamboo leaves shot towards him like sharp knives.
The man in black was forced to retreat dozens of steps. His expression could not be seen due to his black cloak, but he still stood there calmly. However, Ye Jingan saw that the cloak was torn into several holes by the bamboo leaves.
"Well, it was I who underestimated you. You still have some skills left." The man in black chuckled twice. "But it doesn't matter. My followers are very powerful. The plan is halfway completed. The New Year is coming soon, so I'll give my followers a holiday. You guys should enjoy your last year too. Hahahahaha..."
Before he finished speaking, the man in black turned into black mist and disappeared, and his laughter floated over the bamboo forest.
"Take your fucking annual leave! Fuck it..." Ye Jing'an rubbed his hair randomly, turned around and saw Liu Muzhe looking lost, and glanced at Wang Zhiyi who was vomiting blood and hanging on to his breath. He cursed in his heart that the mysterious man was really not an easy person to deal with. He would use physical attacks without knowing other people's weaknesses and beat you half to death. He would use mental attacks on people who knew him, stabbing you in the heart and exposing your scars.
Ye Jingan sighed and walked to Liu Muze, holding his face: "Okay, it's okay."
"How did you learn that move just now?" Liu Muzhe asked.
"I don't know. I was so angry that I wanted to die. I waved my sword and the leaves started to rise." Ye Jing'an asked, "What's wrong, Brother Liu?"
