I Killed Gods and Demons in Song Dynasty

Chapter 37 Demonic Path Evil Spirit

"Hey, where did this villain come from? How dare he run wild in Kaifeng Prefecture!"

Han Tianjin shouted loudly, and without asking any questions, he swung a stick and rushed inside.

He practices the way of incense and fire, relying on kindness and order, and the power of incense and fire to protect one side. He is very sensitive to the aura of chaos and evil, and based on his instinct as a "City God", he has the urge to destroy the other side.

Seeing this, Li Qingyun immediately got ready, ready to step forward and help at any time.

The three red-eyed men had expressionless faces and their bodies were as stiff as zombies. They slowly walked towards the crowd. Although they had daggers in their hands, they had no intention of resisting.

"Wait! These are the first level 'servants' of the 'Devil's Way'..."

Fang Shuan noticed something was wrong and just tried to stop them, but he heard a few muffled thuds, and the three men were smashed into meat paste one by one by Han Tianjin's stick.

At the moment of their death, the "Soul Devouring" magical power in Li Qingyun's body flowed naturally, absorbing all the foul air that was scattered in the world and was imperceptible to others, and transformed it into qi and blood power.

【Remaining Qi and Blood: Twenty-two Souls.】

Ok?
So simple?
Things went unexpectedly smoothly. If Li Qingyun had not felt the actual changes in his qi and blood, he would have almost thought that he was dazzled and had seen things wrong.

He was stunned for five seconds before he came to his senses and hurried to the black coffin to check on Zhu Chengxi's condition.

The boy's chubby face was still rosy, and he had not been harmed. He breathed a sigh of relief, checked Zhu Chengxi's breath with his hand, and took the little guy out of the coffin.

After all this trouble, Zhu Chengxi finally woke up slowly, rubbed his eyes with his chubby little hands, and yawned.

Li Qingyun was quick to cover his eyes with his hands to prevent the bloody and horrific scene from scaring the child, and then whispered in his ear:

"Don't open your eyes, uncle has something good to give you, it won't work if you see it!"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Chengxi immediately closed his eyes tightly and asked in a childish voice:

"What good stuff?"

"Don't worry, don't worry, I'll give it to you in a minute!"

As Li Qingyun spoke, he handed Zhu Chengxi to Song Ke and the rattle, motioning him to take the child out first.

When Song Ke saw Zhu Chengxi, his heart seemed to be struck by lightning. He was stunned and speechless.

Isn’t this the young master of the Zhu family in the portrait?
The gang leader led us directly to this dilapidated temple and also called the captains of Kaifeng Prefecture. Could it be that he came here specifically to rescue Zhu Chengxi?

But how did he find it? I clearly didn't see him do anything...

Song Ke was filled with shock and admiration beyond words. If he had not seen with his own eyes Li Qingyun leading people to destroy this evil and mysterious sacrificial ceremony, he would almost think that the gang leader was the real culprit who kidnapped the child. Otherwise, how could he know so many details?
He had been busy since early morning until now, running around exhausting himself, and asking various connections to inquire about Zhu Chengxi's whereabouts but to no avail. He was almost in despair, thinking that the little boy had been lost in the vast crowd and hidden by human traffickers in a corner where he would never be found.

But with just a little effort from the gang leader, he easily accomplished this seemingly impossible task.

How much ability does he still have hidden, and how many cards does he have?

……

"Hey, my Uncle Han, please be gentle, just break their legs, so we can investigate their origins."

Fang Shuan shook his big head and sighed. Han Tianjin looked at the bloody pieces of meat on the ground, then looked at Fang Shuan, grinning foolishly:
"Hey, I forgot, these good-for-nothings can't stand a beating. They've already turned into a pulp before I even put any strength on them."

Li Qingyun thought for a moment and said to Fang Shuan:
"Can we take these three dead bodies back to Fourth Brother Lu to communicate with them?"

Fang Shuan smacked his lips:

"It's all shredded into meat scraps. Should we put it in a bag and take it back?"

At this moment, a cold wind suddenly blew, and the eerie and icy breath seemed to be tangible, as if a pair of invisible ghost hands were spying and moving.

Li Qingyun's spiritual sense was activated, and he suddenly had an ominous premonition. This was the passive induction of his "divination" ability to unknown dangers, and also the unique keen perception of evil auras by his "Soul Devouring".

As the City God of Incense and Fire, Han Tianjin also reacted instinctively. He slammed the big iron stick to the ground and shouted in a muffled voice:

"What a demon!"

As soon as the words came out, everyone saw a huge skull painted in blood on the wall swaying gently in the cold wind, and the two empty eye sockets suddenly ignited and spit out bright red flames.

Suddenly, the flat picture on the wall began to become three-dimensional rapidly, like a constantly wriggling relief, or like a human face with facial features distorted and deformed by being pressed tightly against a film.

The next moment, a horrifying roar resounded through the temple, and the skull completely broke away from the wall, transforming into a huge and terrifying evil spirit. Its towering cheekbones were like two sharp blades, and the flames in its eyes exuded a cold aura.

"It's the 'evil spirit' of the second level of the 'Devil Way'! Things really aren't that simple!"

Fang Shuan didn't have much ability, but he was knowledgeable and he shouted out immediately.

Upon hearing this, Han Tianjin immediately picked up a large iron stick and rushed over. He jumped up and swung the stick in mid-air to smash.

"Total Annihilation!"

But the evil spirit was erratic. Its huge head turned in the air and avoided the iron rod's trajectory. It rushed towards Song Ke with a cold breath.

While holding Zhu Chengxi, Song Ke felt an indescribable chill running straight from his spine to his brain, and his heart was beating so violently that it seemed like it was going to burst through his chest.

He was a strong man who was not afraid of death, but he had never seen such an extraordinary and evil terrifying force. At this moment, he felt powerless under the huge shock and suppression of the state. His legs were as heavy as if they were filled with lead, and it seemed that the only thing in the world was his rapid and disordered breathing.

The evil spirit's dark eyes seemed to suck away his soul. The feeling of despair and inability to resist bound him like a giant net. He could only watch the evil spirit approaching, fear spreading in his heart.

At this moment, a tall figure approached with strange and bizarre steps as fast as the wind and snatched Zhu Chengxi from his arms.

Li Qingyun's movements were light and soundless, like a flying swallow, like a spirit snake, and flashed by like a ghost.

Then, he tapped the ground with his toes and flew away in the other direction, quickly moving away. In a flash, he appeared three meters away, holding the child in his arms, and circled around the dilapidated brick wall, trying to lure away the evil spirit.

The evil spirit was indeed attracted, and immediately left Song Ke behind, roaring straight towards Li Qingyun.

Song Ke witnessed all this and was amazed in his heart. Then he realized that the evil spirit's target was the little boy in his arms, and that the gang leader took away Zhu Chengxi, which not only saved the child but also saved his own life.

But why did his ghostly steps and his leisurely posture of moving and stopping seem to be the [Spirit Snake Steps] that I had lent him just yesterday?
