"Damn it! Fang Xiu can create Taotie by devouring strange creatures! He's been creating an army of Taotie these past few days while he's been gone!"
Everyone quickly realized what was happening.
His face showed a look of horror.
"No wonder the number of strange creatures in the burial ground has been decreasing these past few days. It was Fang Xiu who did it! He's been using these strange creatures to create Taotie!"
"Damn it! I should have fought him head-on back then, before his Taotie army was fully formed."
"A direct confrontation?" Wen Jinglong's face darkened as he slammed his fist against the wall. "I couldn't even scratch a hair on his head with all my might. How can I fight him head-on?"
We were doomed to lose this battle from the very beginning!
This kid can maintain his immortality through bizarre means, and can even create an army of Taotie beasts. How the hell can you fight him? You can never win!
These words sank everyone's hearts, causing them to panic even more, as the shadow of death loomed over them.
"It's all your fault, Lu Ziming! Why did you have to provoke Fang Xiu for no reason?"
"They're from headquarters just like you. You not only disregard camaraderie, but you also try to harm them. If it weren't for you, none of us would be in this situation!"
Lu Ziming clenched his fists, veins bulging on his face: "Blame me? How the hell can you blame me? Who the hell would have thought that this kid would act like he's home as soon as he gets to the burial ground!"
"Damn it! We've been barely surviving in the Burial Grounds for years, and he, on the other hand, not only came here without spending a penny, but he's also massively expanding his power. Damn it, people who know him know he's the Captain-General, but those who don't would think he's the Lord of the Burial Grounds!"
"Stop arguing, let's think about how to save ourselves! We thought they were going to block the inn or the pawnshop, but we were too narrow-minded. We didn't expect them to block the entire White Stone Town."
........
........
Outside Baishi Town, Fang Xiu stood atop the Taotie, overlooking the entire town, his brows slightly furrowed.
He discovered that his gluttonous beast could no longer enter White Stone Town.
He glanced at the countless strange creatures clinging to the Taotie army and immediately made a plan.
It's not that the Taotie can't get in, but rather that these strange creatures can't get in.
During the day, Whitestone Town possesses the ability to resist strange invasions.
However, this does not include the phantom of the Taotie.
Although the phantom of the Taotie may seem eerie, its essence is ultimately just a phantom, a technique used by spirit masters.
The fact that I was able to summon the Taotie in White Stone Town before is enough to explain everything.
However, Fang Xiu was not in a hurry. If he couldn't go in, he wouldn't go in. He wasn't in a hurry. What was in a hurry were those who couldn't get out.
So he directly arranged for the Taotie army to block the gate, while he himself turned around and left to continue hunting down the strange creatures.
"Gone? Fang Xiu is gone!" a Spirit Master with sensory abilities exclaimed in surprise.
"What good is it if he leaves? The Taotie army is still here, and we can't get out! If we can't get out, we can't make any money. Once our savings are gone, we'll still die here."
"We can wait until nightfall, when the defenses of Whitestone Town are lifted, and then risk hunting down the monsters to make money."
"Did you lose your mind? Ghosts can come in at night, but the problem is, gluttons can come in too, and they're making money off of it?! How are they going to make money off of their heads?!"
"Gentlemen, we've really messed up this time. Let's prepare to apologize and make compensation."
Although everyone was unwilling, they ultimately had no choice but to compromise.
However, to their surprise, the person they wanted to negotiate with never showed up again.
One day, two days, three days...
Fang Xiu never appeared, and the number of Taotie troops had reached a terrifying fifty!
Baishi Town's Baiwei area was so crowded that even Taotie (a mythical creature) couldn't stand still and had to stand on the outer perimeter.
Some fourth-tier spirit masters were completely devastated because they didn't have much savings to begin with, and now they were running out of money and had to borrow money to get by every day.
They never expected Fang Xiu to be so ruthless, not even giving them a chance to negotiate.
"Fang Xiu is trying to surround us and kill us!"
At this point, the arrogance of these powerful figures was completely extinguished. They had originally been thinking about how to curry favor and how to deceive others, hoping to lose less money and settle the matter peacefully.
Now, all hope is lost. They would give up everything they have and incur a huge debt just to survive.
"I can't take it anymore!" a fourth-tier spirit master suddenly cried out. "I'm out of money. If this continues, I'll be sleeping on the streets tonight and then be dismembered by some monster!"
I'll beg him, even if it means being his dog, I don't want to die!
Bang!
The fourth-tier spirit master ran out of the room, rushed to the top of the wall of White Stone Town, and began to kowtow to the Taotie.
"Captain Fang, spare my life! I was blind and ignorant, and I was misled by others' slander, which led me to commit such a terrible mistake!"
As the saying goes, once there is one, there will be two.
Soon, another fourth-level spirit master rushed out, and the two began to kowtow side by side.
"Captain Fang, I'm willing to offer up all my possessions and even owe you one million ghost money, just to spare my dog's life!"
Lu Ziming and the others looked at the two men kneeling and begging for mercy with very ugly expressions, but no one laughed at them.
Because you might become one of them sooner or later.
"What should we do?" Wen Jinglong asked in a deep voice.
"What else can we do? That lord clearly has the ability to continuously create Taotie. Didn't you see that in just a few days, there are already fifty Taotie? If we give that lord a little more time, it won't be difficult for him to clear the entire burial ground of its strangeness!"
At that point, not only would leaving be easy, but conquering the entire world would be a breeze.
"You can do whatever you want, but I'm going to serve under that lord," Tong Yang said.
