hests, I'm not interested in pictures of you, a young girl who hasn't developed yet. Can you let go It wouldn't be good if my girlfriend saw this!"“...Just help me, please... I beg you... I'll never...Just now, Zhang Daoren wrote down the features of Guo Daxian'er in my brother's hand, saying that he is about 1.7 meters tall and of medium build.

He also mentioned that the last time he saw him, he had changed so much that he could hardly recognize him.

This is a huge change… It's gotten too ridiculous!

This doesn't look like someone of average height, around 1.7 meters! To say he could be weak and on the verge of collapse the next second, I totally believe it!

The strange man gasped for breath, his wooden stick waving nervously in his hand.

I looked at the entrance of the cave, hesitating whether to call Jiang Qiyun. But facing strangers, I was afraid that if he made a move...

I frantically rummaged through my small handbag. My brother's personal alarm hadn't been charged in ages, I wasn't sure if it would even work.

This lady's personal defense stun gun is not very harmful, but it can temporarily paralyze the opponent. Because it is a controlled item, its appearance is disguised very well — it just looks like a small household flashlight.

I looked at the other person's condition and it seemed to be very poor. I didn't dare set the power level to the highest. If something went wrong with the electricity, I was also afraid of adding to my karma.

He suddenly grabbed a stick and charged towards me a few steps, scaring me into immediately backing away. He seemed to be driving me off, wanting me to leave the area around the cave opening.

“That… I didn’t mean to steal any treasure… I just came to look for Guo Daxian-er…” I tried to communicate.

That hunched figure "huffed" for a while, croaking out, “You’re looking for him…what do you want from him…”

"We're all in the same industry, I just wanted to ask him a few questions. I'm not here to steal or dig for treasure," I quickly explained.

"Whew, whew..." He clutched his chest with one hand, as if he was having trouble breathing. He nervously stared at me and said, "He...he...is barely keeping himself afloat right now. He's not taking any commissions...and he doesn't want to associate with anyone in the business! Get out! Or else..."

This person's words were rambling and disjointed. I swallowed nervously and whispered, "How do you know he's in danger Aren't you Guo Daxian'er"

"I... hu, hu... I am..." His eyes rolled around without focus, which gave me a fright.

To his surprise, he raised his hand and smacked himself on the back of the head, his eyes returning to their original state!

My goodness… Is this a person!

"You're Guo Daxian, aren't you Why are you like this" My feelings shifted from fear to a touch of sympathy.

This must be something happened, that's why it became like this, right Someone who can be called "Immortal" must have extraordinary abilities and wouldn't be such a strange person.

I endured the pain in my forearm, switching the self-defense flashlight to my other hand and stealthily pulling out two talismans from my bag—they were meant to ward off evil spirits and dispel misfortune.

Who knew this action would provoke him, he suddenly shrieked and waved his wooden stick at me!

I dodged, my tongue lightly "writing" the word *lei* between my teeth, silently reciting the Celestial Scripture.

After dodging several times, Tianjing finished his chanting. He held the thunderbolt in his hand but didn't strike. After dodging a fierce blow from him, he sidestepped and slapped him hard on the back —

With a pure heart, cultivate great aspirations; with wisdom, subdue all demons.

The Thunderbolt of Nine Heavens, the embodiment of Universal Primordial Energy, Supreme Lord!

This slap was really hard, but I'm actually quite weak. I only managed to knock the strange man off balance with a little shove. He lost his footing, his staff flew out of his hand, and he tumbled to the ground.

Besides the Great Compassionate Celestial Venerable of Taixu, this Nine Heavens Yuan Lei Sound Transformative Celestial Venerable is considered another highly revered deity by Taoist practitioners.

Although his status wasn't as high as the Sanqing and Liugui, his magical skills were truly formidable in subduing demons, pacifying monsters, exorcising evil spirits, dispelling misfortune, and aiding in crossing tribulations. He was most terrifying to ghosts, demons, and monsters.

After the strange man fell to the ground, I quickly stepped back to keep a safe distance. I watched as his hands trembled as he tried to get up, but repeatedly failed.

Suddenly, a gust of cold wind blew, and a small group of Yin soldiers appeared before me. I was stunned.

The leader of the Yin officials' hat was askew, he adjusted his hat and asked anxiously, "Little Empress Why is it you Wasn't it Emperor who summoned us!"

What

"I, I didn't summon the underworld deities..." I waved my hands hastily, pointing to the stone mortar. "Jiang... no, Your Majesty is here."

"Oh, oh... It's probably an overlap in positions, ran, ran off course... Hurry up..." The Yin official urged, a gust of Yin wind "whoosh" blew in again, raising a cloud of dust.

I coughed a few times, covering my eyes. Were these Yin soldiers called by Jiang Qiyun What happened down there

Soon, Jiang Qiyun's figure floated out. He landed lightly and, upon seeing me, frowned and said, "How did you get so covered in dust again Didn't I give you the cloak"

I quickly hid my injured hand, as there were no outward wounds anyway.

"A strange man suddenly appeared...I tripped over him, that's all. I've already subdued him." I pointed to the strange man lying on the ground, unable to get up.

I don't know if it is Guo Daxian'er.

A bloodcurdling scream suddenly echoed from the cave, and I saw a little ghost being flung out, its hat tumbling off.

Jiang Qiyun frowned slightly, and the little clerk immediately picked up his hat and ran back inside.

"What's down there... " I whispered.

"...The red-cloaked male ghost is hidden down here. I've already locked him up. Because his origins are suspicious, I've had a Netherworld ghost messenger drag him to the local City God's presence for verification before sending him to the Six Heavens Palace." Jiang Qiyun said.

I see...

Jiang Qiyun frowned and looked at me, asking: "Who is this"

"I don't know... Something's off about his mind. He said I was a grave robber, but I don't know if he meant an actual tomb raider or that elusive Guo Daxian..." I looked at the strange man.

The strange man suddenly trembled all over, his throat bulging like a toad. With a "Wah!" he spat out something small and lizard-like!

Jiang Qiyun, upon seeing the thing, drew his long sword in a flash. He moved his hand, and with a fall of the blade, his sword qi split the creature in two, turning it into a pool of black pus-like blood.

I'm still shaken — it was a demon from the Demon Realm!

After spitting out the thing, the odd man lay face up on the ground, dust raining down on him, mixed with tiny pebbles.

I walked over and shielded him from the windblown sand at the entrance, lowering my head to look. To my surprise, his face seemed fuller.

Just now, it was as if something inside him was sucking all his flesh and skin inwards, making him look like a skeleton. Now, it seems to be slowly recovering.

"...Are you still alive" I asked cautiously.

Jiang Qiyun stood beside me, reaching out to grab my arm. It hurt so much that I gritted my teeth. He seemed startled for a moment, his brow furrowed as if he sensed something was wrong with me, but he didn't say anything.

"Ha…ha…ha…Fusheng…sheng…wúliàng…tiān…zūn…” The person lying on the ground struggled to say these words.

Did you get my message

"Aren't you Guo Daxian'er" I asked hastily.

He closed his eyes slightly and nodded with difficulty.

"How did you get like this" I hurriedly asked. "We didn't come here to steal treasure, we just wanted to inquire about the Liùjì Ghostly Apparatus—"

Before I could finish my sentence, he suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, his eyes wide open!communicate just fine in Chinese... Come here, kiddo. Want to try some"Little Shrimp immediately nodded.My brother pointed at his hand: “You dropped the ball, you see You dropped the ball, go wash you...
