Wan Jiao had anticipated that Qi Mingyu and his group would be targeted and arrested after changing rooms. But she never expected the other side to act so quickly.
She was completely unprepared.
As soon as Lin Yi finished speaking, she quickly went to the room of Qi Mingyu, Lu Heng, and Ji Zitong. Judging from the lingering "aura" inside, they had been gone for at least two hours.
Wan Jiao was well aware of her own strength. The fact that her opponent could take away Qi Mingyu and his two companions for two hours without her noticing meant that the opponent was no ordinary person.
She did some quick calculations and breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing this, Lin asked cautiously, "Captain, are Mingyu and the others alright?"
Wan Jiao: "It's nothing."
Lin Yi was about to breathe a sigh of relief when Wan Jiao added, "He won't die for now, but whether he's missing an arm or a leg is another matter."
Lin Yi: "..."
Wan Jiao was prepared, having placed tracking talismans on Qi Mingyu and the others. Finding them would be a piece of cake for her. After drawing a teleportation talisman in the air, she led Lin Yi inside, and the next second, the two appeared together in that indescribable cellar.
At this moment, Qi Mingyu, Lu Heng, and Ji Zitong were already on the verge of death from being tortured by more than twenty vengeful ghosts. They lay on the filthy ground of the cellar, barely breathing, as if they could die at any moment.
If Wan Jiao and Lin Yi hadn't suddenly appeared and caused those vengeful ghosts to shift their targets, they might already be meeting the King of Hell.
Fortunately, there are no "what ifs".
The vengeful ghosts attacked them, and Lin Yi subconsciously took out her magical artifact, a peach wood sword, and held it in her hand, ready to fight the vengeful ghosts to the death at any time.
But Wan Jiao did not give Lin Yi a chance.
She took two red talismans out of her canvas bag and tossed them away casually.
Instantly, the cellar was filled with light, and the vengeful ghosts that were attacking them seemed to be trapped by something, unable to advance any further.
Wan Jiao formed a hand seal and chanted, "Hurry, hurry, as the law commands! By decree!"
In just a few seconds, those vengeful ghosts were released from their slumber; their resentment, malevolence, and evil aura were all swept away. Visibly, their souls became snow-white and transparent.
Lin Yi was stunned.
Is this the captain's strength?
That's incredible!
Those were vengeful ghosts, and there were so many of them, yet the captain managed to send them to the afterlife in one go...
In other words, Lin Yi didn't see Wan Jiao performing the ritual to deliver the 999 pairs of children in the Ghost Cave. If she had seen it, things wouldn't have turned out this way.
Wan Jiao opened the Gate of Hell under Lin Yi's stunned gaze.
The arrival was made by ghost messengers. Because the Black and White Impermanence above had given them instructions, they treated Wan Jiao with exceptional respect, addressing her as "Master Wan."
Wan Jiao: "Thank you for your trouble."
As the ghosts were taken away by the ghost messengers, Wan Jiao walked towards Qi Mingyu and the other two and drew a teleportation talisman above their heads.
In the blink of an eye, they returned from the cellar to their hotel suite.
Lin Yi examined Qi Mingyu and the other two, then paced anxiously, "Captain, Mingyu and the others are badly injured. Unless we can get the most famous healer in Sheng Kingdom, Yan Chi, to treat them, otherwise..."
As Lin Yi was speaking, Wan Jiao had already healed Qi Mingyu. She used acupuncture, an ancient medical technique she had practiced since childhood. Because the treatment involved drawing spiritual energy into the body to repair the patient's injuries, it was extremely effective.
Lin Yi: "???"
Has she gone mad?
Or was it a hallucination?
How did she see Mingyu open his eyes?
"Captain, look! Mingyu, he..."
Lin Yi was about to ask Wan Jiao if she had seen Qi Mingyu open his eyes when she saw Wan Jiao holding silver needles and applying acupuncture to Lu Heng.
Moreover, in just over ten seconds, Lu Heng also opened his eyes.
Lin Yi's mind worked quickly. She seemed to realize something, and her eyes reddened with excitement. "Captain, did you heal Mingyu and Lu Heng?"
Wan Jiao ignored Lin Yi and continued to administer acupuncture to Ji Zitong.
Once the three were out of danger and had regained consciousness, Wan Jiao finally breathed a sigh of relief and answered Lin Yi's earlier question, "Yes, I know a little about medicine."
Lin Yi: "..."
Is this a case of "knowing a little bit"?
Nobody would believe that.
Even the legendary healer Yan Chi doesn't have this kind of ability!
Lin Yi remained silent, but Qi Mingyu spoke up, "Captain, there's something strange about this hotel."
Wan Jiao gave a nonchalant "Oh," and said, "I know, I even had Lin Yi tell you. But you wouldn't listen and insisted on changing rooms, so there was nothing I could do."
Qi Mingyu and the other two: "???"
So... that "not recommended to change" is supposed to be telling me something?
…
Because of the "little incident," Qi Mingyu and the other two refused to sleep in the same room anymore. As if they had planned it beforehand, they booked a super deluxe suite and helped Wan Jiao move her things there.
Um.
Wan Jiao slept in the master bedroom, Lin Yi slept in the second bedroom, while the three men slept on the floor in the living room.
Wan Jiao felt a little sorry to see them sleeping on the floor and kindly reminded them, "Qi Mingyu, you can actually sleep alone, as long as you switch to the old ones..."
Qi Mingyu: "Captain, I like sleeping on the floor."
Lu Heng: "Captain, I'm healthy, I just love sleeping on the floor."
Ji Zitong: "Captain, I'm not afraid of those crooked and evil ways, but I'm afraid they'll hurt you and Lin Yi."
The group of five eventually went to the hotel restaurant for dinner, even though none of them seemed to have much of an appetite.
After dinner, Wan Jiao glanced at the full moon in the sky and said out of the blue, "It's almost time."
"Captain, when is it about time?" Qi Mingyu and the others asked in unison.
"The evil creature at the bottom of the Immortal Stele River is about to break through the seal." As she spoke, Wan Jiao took out a large stack of red talismans from her canvas bag and gave them to Qi Mingyu, Lu Heng, Lin Yi, and Ji Zitong. She then said in a deep voice, "Take these talismans. No matter what happens, make sure you are safe at all times."
Qi Mingyu and the other three took the talisman, but before they could even ask Wan Jiao what it meant, she and Xiao Lejin vanished into thin air.
Wan Jiao reappeared at the bottom of the Xianbei River.
At this moment, the river god... no, he is not a river god, he is an ancient celestial god who controls punishment and the blessings of plague.
Unfortunately, for his own selfish reasons, the once-benevolent ancient god was turned into a demon at a young age.
His body was stained with the blood of countless young women.
Runze was surprised and taken aback to see Wan Jiao appear at the bottom of the Immortal Stele River.
"Who are you?" Runze asked Wanjiao.
Wan Jiao's eyes revealed Runze's true form.
It is both laughable and pathetic that a dignified god would degenerate into a demon for his own selfish desires.
Wan Jiao coldly parted her lips, "Runze, I'm here to send you to your demise."
Five thousand years.
Runze was overjoyed that someone in this world could accurately call him by name. "You're only twenty years old, right? You actually know me?"
Wan Jiao scoffed, "So what if we know each other? It's a pity that from now on, there will be no more Runze Ancient God in this world..."
