Chapter 36 The Ghost Messenger Takes Him Away
Yu Xiaoluo's brows furrowed, her expression unusually serious, and her voice carried an air of authority, "You all step back a bit, so you don't get hurt."
The ghost messengers then dispersed to watch from a distance.
Yu Xiaoluo bit her finger again, channeling her spiritual energy into the Xuanling Slash. After the Xuanling Slash emitted a bright silver light, she shouted to the ghosts, "You should all retreat quickly."
After saying that, she gripped the Xuanling Slash, which emitted a dragon's roar in her palm. Then, she slashed fiercely at the wall that was invisible to the naked eye. Cracks like water ripples appeared on the wall, and silver light spread across its surface.
Yu Xiaoluo spun her wrist and chopped down again. The crack collapsed with a crash, and the invisible wall instantly turned into specks of light that scattered in all directions. However, wherever the light splashed, it was pierced through.
The ghost messengers were terrified, breaking out in a cold sweat. After all, they were also afraid of what might happen again, and they didn't know if they would be able to become ghost messengers next time.
As the light faded, Yu Xiaoluo called out to the spirits, "You can come out now!"
After the barrier disappeared, the spirits emerged smoothly, still lined up, led by the ghost messengers.
At this moment, Yu Xiaoluo seemed to have consumed too much spiritual energy. Her body swayed, and she was about to fall like a leaf in the wind. Her face was extremely pale.
Yu Liang called out, "Sister—"
He was about to rush out to help Yu Xiaoluo, but Bao Shuoyu stopped him, saying, "If you don't want to live, then go out. I have the Vajra Body Protection, I'll go."
After saying that, he ran off. As for the Vajra Body Protection, that was just nonsense.
These yin energies have no effect on him.
Yu Xiaolu swayed again. Her body was extremely weak and she was about to collapse. People in the circle exclaimed and were about to rush out when a spiritual energy suddenly appeared in her breathing. She involuntarily and desperately inhaled it. She looked and saw that it was Bao Shuoyu.
"Brother Shuoyu, the air here isn't good. You should go back to the entertainment circle."
"It's alright. A master once told my fortune and said I'm not of mortal birth, but possess abundant spiritual power and am not afraid of demons or evil spirits. Look at me, I'm perfectly fine, aren't I?"
Yu Xiaoluo glanced at Shangguan Peiyu, who was trembling like a leaf, then at Bao Shuoyu, whose expression remained normal, and nodded. It seemed that Bao Shuoyu's spiritual power was truly formidable, capable of withstanding such strong Yin energy.
In this respect, even Shangguan Peiyu, Yao Qingfeng, and Chi Shangxing were not as good as him. Although Yu Xiaoluo had doubts again, she had no mind to think about them now.
Because she had consumed too much spiritual energy, she was still very weak and had no extra energy to think about these things.
Her body involuntarily leaned towards Bao Shuoyu, because it felt so comfortable to be near him. Her voice was soft and sweet, almost inaudible, "Brother Shuoyu, I'm so sleepy. By the way, Brother Shuoyu, please don't do anything bad. Follow me and do good deeds; it will accumulate merit—"
Before he could finish speaking, he fell down.
Bao Shuoyu quickly hugged her, a strange feeling welling up inside him.
This gentle and soft-spoken girl, who evokes a protective instinct in others, is always doing great things to save the world.
She should have done nothing, staying in a fairytale castle, reading books, practicing calligraphy, playing the piano, and tending to colorful flowers, but—
Looking at the innocent woman in his arms, her eyelashes drooping and covering her bright eyes, she was as gentle as a kitten, completely different from the domineering woman she had been just moments before. He couldn't help but sigh.
What secrets does this woman hold?
At this moment, he stopped thinking and picked up Yu Xiaoluo, then walked down the mountain.
But the thought lingered in her mind was, "Brother Shuoyu, please don't do anything bad. Follow me and do good deeds; it will accumulate merit—"
Oh, little sister, how can you ask a demon lord to do good deeds?
Bao Shuyu instantly felt that this world was truly absurd.
——————
Yu Liang was very worried as he watched his younger sister being carried down the stairs by Bao Shuoyu.
"Bao Shuoyu, how is my sister? Is she alright?"
"Why did Xiao Yu faint? This whole thing depends on her, so please don't let anything happen to her."
"Yes, if it weren't for her, we wouldn't know how to solve the problem."
Once inside, everyone rushed over to greet Yu Xiaoluo with concern. It was much warmer here, and Yu Xiaoluo was very weak. This place would reduce the corrosive influence of the yin energy, and she needed protection.
"She's fine. She just used up too much energy and needs some time to recover. A good night's sleep and a few days of rest will make up for it."
Bao Shuoyu explained that he had inadvertently discovered that there was another person in the circle, namely Shangguan Peiyu, who had secretly entered while Yu Xiaoluo was working.
He didn't have time to argue with her.
He looked up and stared in that direction. There were too many souls, so they were led away one by one by the ghost messengers carrying the life-binding chains.
Fortunately, nothing unexpected happened this time, and everything was in good order. The spirits did not dare to act recklessly in front of the ghost messengers.
After a while, all the spirits and ghost messengers had left, and everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The yin energy dissipated as they left, and everyone walked out of the circle.
Chief Ding looked at everyone with satisfaction and said, "Today's matter is finally over. It was done very well. We can now give an explanation to the souls who lost their lives here, as well as to the families who requested the return of their remains. Thank you all for your help. Everyone should go back and get some rest—all the officers involved in the Ghost Valley incident are given two days off!"
His men cheered, and Nanshan was also very happy. His eyes were bloodshot, as he hadn't slept for several nights.
Director Ding came over again and shook hands with Yu Liang and Bao Shuoyu. "Take Xiao Yu back and get some rest. We owe her a lot this time. If you need anything, just tell me. I'll do my best to help."
Just then, Nanshan's phone rang. After hearing the voice on the phone, his face turned extremely ugly. "Director, something bad has happened—Nine Netherworld Lord has escaped."
Director Ding's expression changed drastically. "What did you say?!"
He glanced at Yu Xiaoluo, who was still unconscious, then at the three heads of the Xuan family. After thinking for a moment, he said to them, "The Nine Netherworld Lord has run away. This is a big deal. Come with me to take a look."
The three nodded, and Director Ding turned to Bao Shuoyu and Yu Liang, saying he was tired, "Thank you for taking Xiao Yu back."
So everyone went back to their respective homes.
Bao Shuoyu carried Yu Xiaoluo to the car, where Yu Liang drove.
The relationship between the two was not as tense as before, and Yu Liang's hostility towards him had lessened considerably. "You really have Vajra Protection? What is that? Can I have one?"
"I'm sorry, I can't give it to you," Bao Shuyu said indifferently.
Yu Liang rolled his eyes. "You're so stingy. How could Luo Luo possibly acknowledge a brother like you?"
"She had no choice in acknowledging you, but acknowledging me was her choice, so what—"
