Seeing Yuan Qi's innocent and naive demeanor, Bai Youhui found it difficult to speak.
He felt extremely embarrassed.
Yuan Qi rested her chin on her hand, her big eyes blinking, her gaze clear and bright, and asked him, "Have you noticed any changes in your body since you met her?"
Bai Youhui was under a lot of pressure. He felt that he was setting a bad example for the children: "Yeah, I always want to sleep, my strength is getting worse day by day, and I've even lost weight."
"That's right, she's absorbing your pure yang essence to maintain her human form."
Bai Youhui found it unbelievable: "That can't be right. Isn't it said that when people die, they become ghosts and can't appear in broad daylight?"
“That’s an ordinary ghost, but the one you’ve encountered is extraordinary. If I’m not mistaken, she’s a hundred-year-old ghost with cultivation skills.”
We arrived at Yueji Embroidery Shop soon. The storefront was small, only three rooms in size. A woman in her twenties came out carrying embroidery pieces.
Yueya greeted the guests at the door: "Come again next time!"
The guest said, "Very good, very good. Miss Yue's embroidery is excellent. I will have my wife patronize her more often."
“Little girl, look, this is Yueya. Isn’t she a very pretty and kind girl? She can’t possibly be a ghost…” Bai Youhui still introduced her to Yuan Qi with an incredulous look on his face. “Look, what a wonderful girl she is.”
Yuan Qi's youthful face suddenly turned serious, and his beautiful big eyes narrowed. This girl is quite "good". As a hundred-year-old ghost, instead of going to the underworld to line up for reincarnation, she drags her already rotten body here to harm people.
The girl in pink in front of me looked dignified and proper on the surface, but she was actually a walking corpse. Her body had already rotted in several pieces, her face was ashen and bloodless, her eyes were sunken in, and there were three pustules on her face, making her look ferocious and terrifying. The flesh on her hands had also rotted, exposing the white bones.
She was merely using a trick to deceive people, and they were able to see the dignified and beautiful embroiderer Yueya.
Yuan Qi produced a talisman and opened Bai Youhui's Yin Eye, allowing him to see ghosts temporarily.
Upon seeing Bai Youhui, Yueya immediately forced a fawning smile: "Third Master Bai..."
When her gaze fell upon the well-behaved and handsome Yuan Qi's face, Yue Ya's expression changed instantly: "Celestial Master!"
When Yueya saw that it was a baby, she didn't bother to admire it. She deliberately let her ghostly power leak out, revealing her rotten true form for a moment.
This baby is incredibly cute and has accumulated merit, making it a very good physical body.
Yueya gave a cold laugh and turned to run into the house. Yuan Qi didn't want everyone on the street to see such a terrifying scene, so he let her go inside.
Bai Youhui and the others saw a rotting corpse walking around. Thinking they were seeing things, the three of them rubbed their eyes frantically.
Yuan Qi then dragged the trembling Bai Youhui into the house: "Let me show you whether your Yueya is dignified or not."
"Ah, I don't want to, I don't want to..." Bai Youhui shouted at the top of his lungs, making an exaggerated howl.
Feng Zhaolin and Mao Hongji supported each other, their legs already too weak to walk.
Yuan Qi was extremely fast; almost the instant Yue Ya entered the house, he dragged Bai Youhui inside.
"You wretched creature, surrender now!" Yuan Qi unleashed a talisman to exorcise evil spirits. Yue Ya's soul power diminished, and she could no longer maintain her complete human form, revealing her true appearance: a highly decayed physical body.
Bai Youhui's eyes widened, and he shrank behind the door, too afraid to come out.
"Little Celestial Master, instead of drinking milk in your mother's arms, you come out and meddle in my business. You're asking for death!" Yueya's ghostly power surged, and thick black mist churned around her, spreading towards Yuan Qi.
"Little girl, run!" Bai Youhui shouted anxiously. He realized that the black mist was about to engulf Yuan Qi, and the little girl was about to be killed by this ghostly thing.
"You've got some skill." Yuan Qi calmly produced five exorcising talismans and used the Five Elements Formation to press down on Yue Ya's head. He then formed a hand seal and created an Eight Trigrams Formation, which he pressed down on Yue Ya's head again.
"Ah..." Yueya screamed in agony. Most of the black mist around her dissipated. Seeing her century-long cultivation destroyed in an instant, Yueya was unwilling to accept it. She chanted a spell, summoning the evil spirits around her, intending to kill this little girl.
"Little Celestial Master, I gave you a chance, but you didn't take it. Don't blame me for being ruthless." The surrounding black mist thickened again.
Yuan Qi snorted and chanted, "Danzhu mouth spirit, expel filth and dispel evil, mind spirit elixir, grant me true understanding. Thought spirit refines elixir, Dao energy remains forever. Hasten as the law commands! By decree!"
Just now, the five exorcising talismans spontaneously combusted without fire, and the Bagua Formation also caught fire. The black mist suddenly dissipated completely. Yueya's soul twisted and struggled within the formation and became increasingly ethereal, appearing semi-transparent.
A century-old ghost cultivator was destroyed in an instant!
"Master, spare my life!" If she didn't beg for mercy, her soul would be scattered. She was unwilling to accept that after a hundred years of hard cultivation, she couldn't defeat a toddler.
They should try to escape and plan for the future. Once their cultivation is restored, they can seek revenge on the baby later.
Yuan Qi put away the Bagua Formation and strode forward: "I don't care if you cultivate the ghost path, but it's wrong for you to harm people. You killed that girl on the ground, didn't you?"
Yueya smiled, then put on a dignified expression and looked at Bai Youhui: "Third Master Bai, tell the Celestial Master what kind of person I am. I am someone who wouldn't even step on an ant, how could I harm someone? I only occupied this girl's body after she died."
Bai Youhui walked over with weak legs and stood behind Yuan Qi. When he saw the corpse, he gagged. He couldn't believe that he had been intimate with this corpse for the past few days.
Ugh, that was absolutely disgusting. From then on, he had a phobia of women.
"You're talking nonsense!" Bai Youhui was furious at the thought of being tricked by Yueya. "You're a wicked ghost, a wicked ghost who only harms people. Tell me, why did you seduce me! You disgust me to death."
Yueya chuckled sarcastically: "I can't find a suitable body right now, and this body is already decaying. To maintain my humanity, I don't have enough ghostly power, so naturally I have to absorb human essence. Is that even a question? You fool!"
Seeing that Yuan Qi wasn't paying attention, she secretly chanted a spell and suddenly rushed towards Yuan Qi at an extremely fast speed. She wanted to pierce through his heart, take Yuan Qi's life, and then take over his body.
Yuan Qi had anticipated this, and a small lotus-shaped flame appeared at his fingertips, flickering lightly.
Yueya was shocked, but it was too late to turn back. That was—the Red Lotus Karmic Fire from Hell!
A tiny cluster of crimson lotus flames, no bigger than a fingernail, instantly burned Yueya to ashes.
"Ah—" A shrill scream echoed, then the room returned to silence.
Bai Youhui looked around and asked, "Is she dead?"
"His soul has been scattered, he's as dead as can be." Yuan Qi blinked and earnestly advised him, "Don't assume that everyone you encounter is human. Be more careful in the future."
