The black air was surging, and Xu Ruyan struggled to make hand gestures, trying to use the blood curse to counter the Painted Skin Ghost.
"It's useless." Su Yao's purple eyes were cold.
The blood curse failed to succeed, and the Painted Skin Ghost suddenly retaliated. Black energy spread to Xu Ruyan's entire body, and her pale skin quickly cracked with blood marks, and her abdomen bulged.
Zhou Chenglang was shocked and wanted to rush over to save him, but was stopped by Zhou Zhanhua: "Look carefully! That thing is trying to revive by borrowing a corpse!"
Su Yao threw a talisman with his backhand, and the talisman ignited a dark blue flame and hit Xu Ruyan's heart.
With a tragic wail, the Painted Skin Ghost was forced out of Xu Ruyan's body and turned into a bloody human-shaped phantom with red eyes, a body as thin as a dead tree, sharp teeth and claws, and exuding a disgusting stench.
It pounced towards Zhou Chenglang!
"It's bound by fate." Su Yao said lightly.
Only then did everyone realize that blood-colored lines were faintly appearing on Zhou Chenglang's chest, entangled with the aura in the Painted Skin Ghost's body.
The Painted Skin Ghost attempts to seize Zhou Chenglang's heart to complete the sacrificial ritual.
"Delusion."
Su Yao moved his fingertips lightly, and the twenty-six ghost gate needles flew out from the Nine Lotus Jade Bone Ring, shining with silver light, piercing the air and nailing into the void, forming a dense needle array, layer by layer of blockade.
In the array, the Painted Skin Ghost screamed miserably and was trapped in the center of the needle array, unable to move.
She flipped her hand and slapped down another array talisman, and an evil purification array appeared in the void. The array patterns were golden and black, and it was extremely cold, as if it could tear the soul apart.
The Painted Skin Ghost struggled frantically, screaming continuously, and black energy swirled.
The twenty-six ghost gate needles moved like living things, moving along Xu Ruyan's bones, meridians, and blood vessels, accurately removing the remaining evil spirits and corrupting forces.
Xu Ruyan struggled painfully in mid-air, her clothes rustling, blood surging around her body, and she seemed like she was about to explode and die at any moment.
Su Yao's expression was calm, his fingertips flew, and his needlework was strange and unpredictable, both precise and extremely sharp.
The onlookers felt a chill down their spines as they watched the evil spirits being removed needle and thread at a time. It was as cold and cruel as dissecting an evil spirit, yet it also had a breathtaking sense of artistry.
Finally, the Painted Skin Ghost let out a final desperate wail, and turned into black ash in the purification array, and was completely burned to ashes.
Xu Ruyan lost her support and fell from mid-air.
Su Yao moved and caught it with one hand, his movements clean and neat.
Almost at the same time, the unconscious Zhou Chenglang also fell and was caught by Zhou Zhanhua in time.
Su Yao flipped his palm and a high-tech suspended medical bed flew out, shining with silver-white light, like future technology.
She gently placed Xu Ruyan on the bed, with a faint light on her palm, and adjusted her breathing.
In a moment, Xu Ruyan's pale face emerged, half of her face was covered with horrible burn scars, which was unbearable to look at.
The young men from the aristocratic families all avoided his gaze, unable to hide the disgust and fear on their faces.
Zhou Chenglang woke up after taking the Qingxin Pills. The first thing he saw was Xu Ruyan's ruined face, and he suddenly felt like vomiting.
The tender and loving scenes of the past came to his mind, and he felt nauseous.
Leng Zhiruo watched coldly and sneered, "Men really only care about appearances. Xu Ruyan is also confused, actually falling for such a lowly bastard."
Zhou Chenglang became angry and glared at Leng Zhiruo.
Leng Zhiruo showed no sign of weakness and said calmly, "What are you looking at? I'm talking about you."
Su Yao ignored all this and remained expressionless as he used the twenty-six ghost gate needles to carefully restore Xu Ruyan's appearance.
The silver needle fell like a meteor and entered the acupuncture point swiftly. The technique was extremely exquisite. As the flesh and blood squirmed, Xu Ruyan's burned skin slowly healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
There was a faint smell of blood in the air.
Many disciples from aristocratic families turned their heads away quietly, not daring to look directly at him.
Xu Runing twisted her fingers nervously, but when she saw the awe in the eyes of Bai Lingxi and Bai Yiran, she felt relieved.
Su Yao's technique was quick and efficient. Finally, he bandaged gauze on Xu Ruyan's face and put away the silver needles, his expression indifferent and majestic.
She stood up and looked at Xu Runing: "If you want your sister to recover safely, cancel this mission of the Xu family and take your sister away as soon as possible."
"Director Su, I am grateful for your kindness. When my sister recovers, we will come to your house to express our gratitude." Xu Runing did not hesitate, bowed deeply, and left.
Before leaving, she took out the spirit beast contract and dissolved the master-servant relationship with the Four-Winged Silver Luan.
The four-winged silver phoenix flapped its wings and flew high, circling above Su Yao, making a low hum.
Su Yao pointed his finger, and a talisman flew into Yin Luan's brow.
"Go, you're free. If anyone dares to touch you again, your whole family will be destroyed." Her voice was cold and calm.
The crowd present all gasped.
Such a vicious curse was cast for a spiritual beast!
Bai Yiran's gaze towards Su Yao became more and more passionate, and the admiration in his heart turned into a hidden love.
Liu Yuting stood quietly beside Su Yao, his green eyes revealing pride and joy.
This is the woman he has been thinking about, calm, strong, proudly independent, and unparalleled in the world.
The wind blew through the dense forest, ruffling her slightly raised black hair, making her look like an unshakable god.
…
At the end of the dense forest, a towering and ancient stone gate stands quietly, exuding an air of vicissitudes.
The stone gate is grayish white in color, with a faint trace of the mottled atmosphere of time. There are no patterns or carvings on the door. It is ancient and simple, but it has a kind of oppressive and awe-inspiring majesty.
Behind the door is the legendary realm of emptiness.
Su Yao's eyes narrowed slightly and he paused.
She could clearly sense that the originally sealed barrier had been quietly opened and someone had already entered it.
The wind and sand blew up, and on both sides of the stone gate stood two ancient doors, with faint light patterns engraved on them.
One door of life, one door of death.
