Within the residential area, demons and monsters were rampant. If these ghosts, who had returned from their vacation in the underworld, also rushed into the area, it would surely create a chaotic and unrestful situation.
In the eyes of Taoists, demons and ghosts are of the same origin. A few minor demons or ghosts gathered together will not affect the order of the mortal world, but a few powerful demons plus a hundred ghosts gathering together will definitely change the energy field of the neighborhood.
Even after the Ghost Festival, the evil aura won't disappear immediately. It will surely attract the attention of exorcists.
Jiu Yuanqing's original intention was to cover up Yin Huan's whereabouts, but unexpectedly, his good intentions backfired.
Leaving that aside for now. Just as the group of old ghosts were filled with rage, several powerful auras suddenly approached. A few gusts of wind suddenly swept through, blowing the group of ghosts guarding outside the residential area off course.
As the wind blew, several figures disappeared into the residential area in an instant.
"What the hell went in just now?"
"What ghost? That's a demon... its demonic aura is strong, it must be a powerful demon."
How did you know?
"When I was young, I saw monsters."
"Really? Holy crap, a monster has entered our neighborhood. No, no, I have to go back to Wangchuantai to visit my son in his dream and tell him to be careful when he goes out, and it would be best if we moved house right away."
"Yes, yes, yes, hurry back and visit someone in a dream. It looks like several demons flew by just now. What are these monsters doing gathering in our neighborhood for no reason?"
"No matter what he does, hurry back and tell the King of Hell what happened."
Monsters appeared in the neighborhood, scaring away the ghosts who were visiting relatives, who fled back to the gates of hell.
After the ghosts retreated, the atmosphere in a three-bedroom apartment on the 12th floor of Building 8 was tense. Luo Mang and Qing Mang had just entered the room when they each took a corner, staring at each other and confronting each other without giving an inch.
Huo Fei placed Yin Huan on the sofa, reached out, and gently lifted the wet hair from her face.
The eerie green light that had surrounded the silver ring had dissipated. After being baptized by the Nuwa Crystal, her short, stocky figure had grown out, and the tail that had troubled her for so long had transformed into a pair of long, slender white legs.
At this moment, Yin Huan looked to be in her late teens or early twenties. Her features were exquisite and flawless, her skin was delicate, and her luscious red lips were slightly upturned, as if she were having a beautiful dream.
She lay quietly on the sofa, her delicate face as clear as jade, exuding an air of nobility that made others feel ashamed and unworthy to defile her.
The moment Huo Fei lifted the strands of hair from her face, his mind wavered, and even the naturally sharp eyes of the Eagle Clan were momentarily confused.
His brows furrowed slightly as he suppressed the strange feeling rising in his heart. He stood up, took off his coat, and covered Yin Huan's exposed long legs.
"What are you doing? Take your clothes (dirty hands) off."
The moment he covered up the alluring snow-white skin of the silver ring, the two brothers on the other side shouted in unison to stop him.
The two brothers were perfectly in sync when it came to the Silver Ring issue.
Luo Mang snorted coldly, temporarily setting aside his great enemy, Qing Mang, and took two steps forward. He pulled Huo Fei, who was squatting on the edge of the sofa, aside, and with a swift motion, grabbed Huo Fei's coat and threw it outside.
That's it, he still doesn't seem satisfied.
He reached out and waved his hand over Yin Huan's legs, as if cleaning away some dirt, until he had completely swept away Huo Fei's lingering scent. Only then did he conjure up a blanket and cover Yin Huan with it, completely satisfied.
Luo Mang looked at the silver ring, which had changed its form, his eyes almost overflowing with tenderness.
The doting older brother was overjoyed; after raising his little sister for a hundred or two hundred years, she had finally grown up. His little sister's human form was truly beautiful; look at that tender face, it was almost dripping with moisture... No, his little sister was too beautiful; he had to keep a close eye on her, lest she be fooled by those stinky monsters.
Luo Mang was relieved, but Qing Mang was heartbroken.
He tried to hold back, but when he saw Luo Mang's smug expression, he couldn't take it anymore. He snorted coldly, rushed to Luo Mang's side, grabbed Luo Mang's collar, and yanked him away.
"Get out of here."
The green python's attack caught Luo Mang off guard, and he was suddenly pulled and spun around on the spot.
As soon as Luo Mang steadied himself, he rolled up his sleeves and, without saying a word, eagerly pounced on the green python.
"I'm still settling scores with you, and you're already jumping up and down. Tell me, did you bully her...?" Luo Mang pressed down on Qing Mang, his expression ferocious, and clenched his fists to punch Qing Mang. His eyes were fierce, and he threatened in a vicious voice: "Qing Mang, you listen to me, the grudge between you and me is our business. If you dare to touch her even a little bit, I'll take your life."
Luo Mang was genuinely afraid. For over two thousand years, the impression the Green Python left on him was that it was relentless in achieving its goals, extremely vicious, and that killing and eating demons was commonplace for it, showing no humanity whatsoever.
He was afraid that the green python, unable to defeat him, would hesitate to harm the silver ring instead.
Author's Note: Silver Ring has finally grown up and is old enough to date.
In this chapter, Luo Mang's reaction will be gradually revealed later.
