Seeing that Lin Muzhu didn't say anything, everyone knew what she was worried about.
"Muzhu, don't worry. If Su Jinyue was a stingy person, she wouldn't have agreed to have dinner with us," Ding Si'an comforted her. She didn't like how Lin Muzhu treated Su Jinyue back then. But Lin Muzhu was her best friend and roommate, so she had no choice but to stand by her.
"I know Su Jinyue isn't a stingy person, but I always feel a little awkward. I'd better not go." Lin Muzhu was a little conflicted. She had treated Su Jinyue like that out of jealousy, but later, when she realized that Su Jinyue relied on her own abilities, she regretted it.
"Okay, let's talk about it after we see Su Jinyue," Xu Xinxin said calmly. If they weren't roommates, she wouldn't have talked much with Lin Muzhu. She really disliked Lin Muzhu, who didn't work hard himself and liked to blame everyone else for his mistakes.
"Ma Lingling said Su Jinyue will be leaving the capital in a few days to join the army. You should take this opportunity to clear up the misunderstanding with Su Jinyue," Zhang Li said. If she had to choose between Lin Muzhu and Su Jinyue, she would definitely choose Su Jinyue, not because of her ability, but because she was honest.
"It's getting late, let's go to bed." Ma Chunlan lay down. The Chinese New Year was approaching, and they would be separated in a few days. Fortunately, they were still together after the New Year, otherwise she would really be reluctant to leave.
When Su Jinyue saw the communication card light up, she stopped what she was doing, picked up the communication card and turned it on.
"Are you asleep?" Zhan Yihan's magnetic and gentle voice came from the communication card.
Su Jinyue raised the corner of her mouth to smile slightly, "Not yet, I'm refining talismans, what are you doing?"
"I'm thinking of you!" Zhan Yihan's voice was filled with boundless and lingering affection.
The smile on Su Jinyue's lips deepened a little, and there was a deep longing in her starry eyes, "I miss you too, when are you coming back?" She really wanted to see him now.
"I won't talk to you for another two days. I'm off on a mission." Zhan Yihan reluctantly disconnected the communication card and walked towards a bridge with the word 'Netherworld' written on it. His mission this time was to make the evil spirit on this bridge disappear.
He and his comrades came here after receiving the mission, only to find out that there were five bridges in total. Each bridge was filled with demonic energy, and the villagers in the villages eroded by this demonic energy would become like zombies, without consciousness.
Now he had to face this last bridge. He had left the previous four bridges to his comrades to guard, and the evil spirits on those four bridges had been temporarily controlled. Now, as long as he could control the evil spirits on this last bridge, his mission would be completed.
Drawing out the Xuanyuan Sword, Zhan Yihan stepped onto the Netherworld Bridge. As soon as he took a step, he felt a wave of dizziness, as if something was about to invade his sea of consciousness. Compared to the four previous bridges, the demonic energy on this bridge was the most intense. He could even sense countless black objects closing in on him, yet his spiritual sense couldn't detect them.
Zhan Yihan raised his hand and swung the Xuanyuan Sword. A series of "squeaks!" rang out in his ears. Sure enough, his feeling was right.
Without hesitation, he swung out his second sword strike. Another squeak echoed. Just as Zhan Yihan was about to strike out a third time, he paused and dodged into the small world. He noticed that as the invisible objects were swept away by his Xuanyuan Sword, the surrounding demonic energy not only didn't diminish, but actually intensified. It seemed that those invisible objects were the source of the demonic energy. Fortunately, the previous bridges were clear of those objects, otherwise controlling the demonic energy would have been even more difficult.
Thinking of this, Zhan Yihan released a trace of spiritual awareness to explore the small world, and found that the color of the demonic energy outside had changed to a substance that looked like substance. Fortunately, he had a small world, otherwise, under the erosion of that demonic energy, he could not guarantee that his mind would not be affected. The demonic energy here was difficult for even a cultivator in the Divine Transformation Stage to deal with, let alone others.
He raised his hand and threw out the formation flag, quickly setting up a trapping array and a flame array. He wanted to contain all the evil spirits in one area, absolutely not allowing them to escape. Especially those objects hidden in the evil spirits, he wanted to eliminate them without leaving a single one.
As the formation was formed, the demonic energy began to roll violently, and sounds like the screams of evil spirits rang out in the formation, making people's scalps numb.
Zhan Yihan's hands kept moving, continuously scattering formation flags to strengthen the formation. Under the burning flames, those objects began to run around, trying to escape from the formation. However, no matter how they struggled and hit the walls of the formation, they could not escape the fate of being strangled and burned.
Time passed by unknowingly, and Zhan Yihan didn't know how much time had passed. Only when he saw the evil energy outside dissipate did he stop and flash out of the small world.
At this time, the Netherworld Bridge was not much different from other bridges except that it looked a little dilapidated. Zhan Yihan stood in the middle of the bridge, scanning the surroundings with his spiritual sense, and he suddenly felt a cold breath.
Without any hesitation, Zhan Yihan quickly moved away and turned around to find that a middle-aged man with a pale face was standing where he had just stood. His eyes were dull, as if he was lifeless.
Zhan Yihan summoned the Xuanyuan Sword and simultaneously swept his spiritual sense towards the man. A flash of surprise flashed across Zhan Yihan's eyes. The man before him showed no signs of life, which meant he was already dead.
It's a corpse puppet, a thought flashed through Zhan Yihan's mind. Thinking of the villagers who were being corrupted by the demonic energy, he immediately confirmed his idea. If it was a corpse puppet, he only needed to find the person controlling it and kill them, and the villagers would regain their sanity. He had already used a formation to control the village infected by the demonic energy. As long as the formation was not broken, the villagers could not leave, and the disease would not spread to others.
At the same time that Zhan Yihan swept out the sword light, the corpse puppet also attacked Zhan Yihan. Its movements were extremely fast, but no matter how fast it was, it was of no use under the sword light of Zhan Yihan. When it was swept by the sword light, the corpse puppet screamed and disappeared in the sword light.
Zhan Yihan walked towards the other side of the Netherworld Bridge. He felt that the source he was looking for was just on the other side of the bridge.
The Netherworld Bridge is not long, only about twenty meters at most. Zhan Yihan had just taken a few steps when another sharp and cold air hit him.
