Chu Yu's heart tightened, and she quickly rolled to the side to avoid its attack. The floor where she had been standing was smashed to pieces.
Still shaken, she quickly got up and used a flying talisman to fly into the sky.
She raised her hand and retracted the Demon-Subduing Umbrella, then drew a black longsword from the handle. Just as the Taotie leaped up and pounced on her, she thrust the sword into its mouth.
The Taotie's mouth was instantly pierced, and it fell from the sky, crashing to the ground with a painful howl.
The Taotie's mouth was its Achilles' heel. After being pierced by the Demon-Subduing Sword, its Achilles' heel was broken, and most of its power dissipated.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Chu Yu threw out several explosive talismans. The talismans landed on Taotie's soul and exploded with a bang. Taotie's soul was shattered by the explosion, let out a miserable scream, and vanished into nothingness.
With the Taotie destroyed, the flute in Xu Chenyang's hand quickly cracked, the flute music stopped abruptly, and he was attacked by the backlash. He felt a pain in his chest and spat out a mouthful of blood with a "poof".
The female ghost watching from the sidelines was stunned.
She thought Chu Yu would be killed by Taotie, but unexpectedly, she actually destroyed Taotie!
Wow! That's amazing!
Xu Chenyang clutched his chest, looking at Chu Yu with disbelief on his face.
He had gone to great lengths to acquire that Taotie, which had always been invincible. He never expected that it would be destroyed by Chu Yu.
He was so angry that he spat out another mouthful of blood.
Chu Yu flew down from the sky, glanced at the spot where the Taotie had disappeared, and breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, this Taotie was only in spirit form and not particularly strong. If it were a living Taotie, she wouldn't be able to defeat it at all, given her cultivation level.
Holding the Demon-Subduing Umbrella, she looked sharply at the disheveled Xu Chenyang and declared, "What other tricks do you have up your sleeve? Show them all."
Xu Chenyang had lost all his resources, so he had no tricks up his sleeve. He gritted his teeth, pulled an ancient sword from a nearby shelf, and slashed at Chu Yu.
Chu Yu dodged his attack by sidestepping, then turned and kicked him away.
Xu Chenyang only cultivated in the Taoist temple for about ten years, and he did not follow the right path. He did not learn the basic skills well, so his own strength was not strong. He was just good at doing some crooked and evil things.
In close combat, he was no match for Chu Yu.
He fell to the ground, cursed under his breath, and was about to get up and fight back when suddenly, a short arrow engraved with runes shot from the opposite side and hit him squarely in the shoulder with a whoosh.
He felt a sudden numbness throughout his body, instantly losing all strength and becoming unable to move.
Who attacked me?
He shouted angrily.
“It’s your grandfather.”
A righteous voice came from the other side. He looked up and saw Jiang Huai'an rushing over with four colleagues from the Taoist Association.
Upon seeing them, Xu Chenyang's expression changed, and he asked anxiously, "Who are you people? Why did you suddenly barge into my alchemy room?"
Jiang Huai'an rolled his eyes at him, quickly walked up to Chu Yu, and said, "I am her fourth senior brother. These people are members of the Taoist Association and our colleagues."
I received a message from my junior sister saying that you were illegally concocting evil medicines here, so I brought my colleagues here to help you.
Before coming, Chu Yu had a backup plan, specifically sending Jiang Huai'an with men to provide support so that if she were captured, they could arrive in time to rescue her.
After Jiang Huai'an and his men arrived at the abandoned factory, they saw that Chu Yu had not come out for a long time. Worried that she might be in danger, they led their men to the basement.
As soon as they arrived at the basement, they saw Chu Yu fighting with Xu Chenyang. In a fit of rage, he shot a specially made short arrow at Xu Chenyang, rendering him unable to fight back.
Xu Chenyang was furious. Chu Yu had even called for reinforcements. She called him treacherous and cunning, but she was probably more scheming.
He was incredibly unlucky; he fell for her.
Jiang Huai'an ignored Xu Chenyang's resentful gaze. He looked at Chu Yu and asked, "Junior Sister, are you injured? We're not late, are we?"
Chu Yu smiled and said, "I'm not injured. You arrived just in time."
Jiang Huai'an breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good."
Chu Yu suddenly realized something and asked urgently, "There's a powder in the basement that can cause cultivators to lose their internal energy. Did you take any antidotes before you came?"
Jiang Huai'an calmly replied, "I had already guessed that there would be such a poison. We took antidote pills in advance, so we are now immune to all poisons."
Chu Yu raised her eyebrows. As expected of her senior brother, they had the same idea.
Jiang Huai'an turned to look at Xu Chenyang, whose face was pale, and said coldly, "The arrow that hit you just now was developed by our Taoist Association. It can instantly make you lose the ability to resist and also destroy your cultivation, turning you into a cripple. From now on, you are a cripple. Don't even think about causing trouble again."
Xu Chenyang's face turned pale, and he angrily cursed at him.
Jiang Huai'an gave him a cold look: "If you dare to swear again, I'll cut out your tongue and make you mute."
Xu Chenyang trembled in fright and immediately shut his mouth in frustration.
Seeing him being tormented so badly, the female ghost beside him laughed heartily: "Hahaha, you scumbag, you've been gloating for so long, now you're finally getting your comeuppance! Your death is just around the corner!"
Hearing her mocking laughter, Xu Chenyang became furious and started yelling at her.
Jiang Huai'an looked at the female ghost and asked in bewilderment, "Why is there another female ghost here?"
Chu Yu replied, "That female ghost is this bastard's wife."
She briefly recounted the bad things Xu Chenyang had done.
Jiang Huai'an and his four colleagues were stunned when they heard this. Jiang Huai'an cursed with contempt: "Damn it, he actually did so many bad things, and even killed his wife for insurance money. What a scumbag."
Four colleagues chimed in: "Yes! He is a disgrace to us Taoist practitioners."
