Li Yuan took a deep breath, glanced at the "Nine Temporary Patrol Tokens" in his hand, and with a thought, he returned to a place he had been before.
The next moment,
he appeared atop a lonely cliff in the deep mountains.
This was a hidden place several hundred miles southwest of Shanbao County.
From the cliff, looking afar, one could see a distant, ancient village.
The village was shrouded in a thin mist, completely obscured from the outside, with strange rustling sounds emanating from within, causing unease.
But the next moment, the eerie village suddenly shook, followed by a violent tremor, as if an earthquake had just erupted.
And on one side of the village, a shadowy, ghostly Black and White Ghost Realm abruptly squeezed out.
Above the Ghost Realm, Lady Yan in Cyan Robe proudly stood, raised her finger and pointed to the distance.
On the ground behind her, one white-clothed Ghost Servant after another appeared, and then rushed towards the village.
Li Yuan’s spirit was stirred; he recalled the scene when he helped Lady Yan capture the Rouge House.
It was the same scene back then.
But this time, it was entirely different.
Back then, the Ghost Servants in Lady Yan’s Ghost Realm were just one kind, but now they were varied: there were disheveled-haired female Ghost Servants; frozen stiff ice Ghost Servants; hunch-backed, big-bellied fat Ghost Servants; skinless, blood-drenched Ghost Servants, a myriad of types...
Li Yuan’s figure flickered, landing beside the Black and White Ghost Realm.
He slightly tilted his head, feeling that at this moment, Yan Yu resembled the Ghost Lady quite a bit.
And this Ghost Lady also looked at him from afar, showing a hint of humane concern, then said: "Husband, be careful."
Li Yuan replied, "Sister Yan, be careful too."
Without further ado,
Fire Born,
Celestial Eye revealed.
It seemed that amidst the blazing fire, there oddly grew an icy pupil.
The pupil quietly observed the flaws of the ancient village.
This ancient village was the Miracle Beast Garden; there normally would be no flaws, but not now.
Soon, Li Yuan spotted a flaw, with a thought, a Dragon Breath blasted towards it.
The intense Dragon Breath transformed into a pure flame firearms, directly piercing into the flaw of the Miracle Beast Garden.
The Miracle Beast Garden, while resisting Yan Yu’s sudden attack, was hit in its flaw by Li Yuan, causing the entire ancient village to tremble even more violently.
Usually, Yan Yu was not a match for the Miracle Beast Garden.
But at this moment, half of the Miracle Beast Garden’s body was stuck in the Bronze Gate, only its "end" exposed outside, unable to turn back, how could it be a match for Yan Yu, this "proprietress with a Compound Ghost and four Single Ghost Ghost Realms"?
Taking advantage of the situation, fishing in troubled waters, sitting back and reaping the rewards, this was Li Yuan’s plan!
...
All at once, Fujiang Ghost Street suddenly became lively.
At the entrance of the street, a large group of unfamiliar skeletons suddenly surged in.
These skeletons held tools exuding a chilling aura.
In their left hand, they held strange handcuffs, in their right, a small Copper Mirror.
The Copper Mirror they held was far inferior to the one Yan Yu held, but it emitted the same aura.
Leading the skeletons were a short black-clad woman and a tall, thin man in white; what they held in their right hand wasn’t Copper Mirrors, but an unusual Mourning Stick.
This Mourning Stick was a special tool crafted by the "Ice Mountain Ghost" composite.
Ice Mountain Ghost could produce patterns day or night, morning or evening; the tools it crafted were simple and crude, just a shake would affect the opponent, and their Divine Soul would be terrified, difficult to control.
Unfortunately, such Mourning Sticks had a very low production rate; Yan Yu crafted only two, giving them to Xiaohai and Xiaobai.
This Mourning Stick might be ineffective against someone like Li Yuan, a High Grade Martial Artist, but under Sixth Grade, it was accurate, and it also worked on Fifth Grade, with specific effectiveness depending on the individual’s strength.
Naturally, these skeletons were Yan Yu’s Judge team.
As soon as the Judge team’s skeletons entered Ghost Street, they quickly clashed with the Ghost Street skeletons.
Seeing an opponent skeleton rushing out from the alley, they wasted no time, holding the Copper Mirror, directly flashing it in the opponent’s face.
With this flash, the opponent skeleton showed a bewildered expression, with countless past events replaying in its mind, be they good or evil... all the same...
These numerous past events filled its mind for a moment, causing it to forget its whereabouts, with no ability to think.
Seizing the moment, the Judge team’s skeleton rushed forward, swinging the left-hand handcuff and directly cuffing the skeleton’s hand.
Instantly, the skeleton awoke, but it had already changed sides, becoming a servant of the Judge team.
This skeleton turned around, swiftly helping the Judge team attack its original comrades.
The skeletons of Zhong Mansion were initially on defense, but, unaware of the Miracle Beast Garden’s anomaly, they were caught in this sudden ambush, unable to attend to their duties, let alone defend together.
...
A long time passed...
Another long time passed...
The Miracle Beast Garden seemed like stretched noodles.
One end was being dragged into the Bronze Gate by Lianyi House, the other being pulled back by Yan Yu.
And because Su Mushen was still cleaning up the Dragon Vein dispatched strong individuals, the Bronze Gate remained closed, relentlessly pinching the Miracle Beast Garden.
Finally, when Su Mushen returned.
The entire Ghost Street resounded with countless eerie, shrill screams, mixing human and beast voices, merging into one, causing the entire Ghost Street to tremble.
All nine Bronze Gates shuddered.
Bang!!
The next moment, the originally open Bronze Gates of Hidden Dragon Path and Fujiang Path slammed shut.
