[Ding! Your wife's heart rate has increased! Strong fluctuations of "impure" energy are observed in the surrounding area.]

Lin Che activated his Ghost Eyes. He saw that the scarred man's blood and flames were thick with black energy. The black energy of the rotten-faced ghost was intertwined with the black energy on his body.

"Boss, there's a woman here!" One of the robbers' eyes lit up. He pointed to Su Hongyi next to Lin Che.

The scarred man turned his gaze. The moment he saw Su Hongyi, his eyes widened. He swallowed hard, a lewd smile spreading across his face.

"Hey, little beauty, what are you doing with this poor bastard?" The scarred man's voice was slick and sticky. "Come here with me, I'll treat you to all the good food and drink, and I'll make sure you're safe in this safe zone, no one will dare to bully you."

He leered at Su Hongyi, then moved closer to them. The rotten-faced ghost on his shoulder also turned its festering face toward Su Hongyi, seemingly tasting a different kind of "deliciousness."

Lin Che felt Su Hongyi's body tense up. An extreme chill emanated from her. The temperature in the supermarket dropped rapidly.

[My husband, he said filthy things.] Su Hongyi's thoughts were tinged with murderous intent.

Lin Che's heart sank. He knew that this scarred man had crossed Su Hongyi's bottom line.

"Get out of here," Lin Che said, his voice icy.

The scarred man was taken aback. He hadn't expected Lin Che to speak up at this moment. The robber next to him burst into laughter.

"Kid, who do you think you are! Do you even know who I am? I'm Scarface, and this rotten-faced monster of mine is an E-level monster!" Scarface pointed at the rotten-faced monster on his shoulder, his face full of arrogance.

The rotten-faced demon roared at Lin Che and Su Hongyi. It reeked of decay and was shrouded in black mist.

Lin Che ignored the scarred man. He simply reached out and gently patted Su Hongyi's hand.

"Wife, this kind of trash isn't worth your time," Lin Che said.

The scarred man froze. The robbers around him laughed loudly.

"Kid, what did you say?" The scarred man took a step forward. The rotten-faced monster on his shoulder, its festering face facing Lin Che, had its mouth open, revealing sharp teeth. A putrid stench wafted over.

"He told you to get lost." Su Hongyi's thoughts appeared directly in the scarred man's mind.

The scarred man shuddered. He felt a ringing in his ears and a chill run down his spine. He took a step back.

"Damn it, playing tricks!" the scarred man cursed. He reached out and slapped the man with the mangled face on the back. "Go! Tear this kid apart!"

The grotesque demon, receiving its command, leaped off the scarred man's shoulder. Its gaunt body, like a dark shadow, charged towards Lin Che. Its nails were long, sharp, and glossy black. It hissed, filled with hunger.

Inside the supermarket, other customers screamed in terror. They backed away, hiding behind the shelves. The Dragon Group members gripped their guns tightly, but didn't move. E-class monsters were beyond the capabilities of ordinary firearms.

The grotesque demon was incredibly fast. In the blink of an eye, it was in front of Lin Che. It raised its hand, its sharp nails reaching straight for Lin Che's neck.

Lin Che stood still. Su Hongyi was beside him, her red umbrella folded up.

The rotten-faced ghost's fingernails stopped a few centimeters from Lin Che's neck.

Its entire body froze in mid-air. Its eyes, which were originally cloudy, now revealed extreme terror. It stared straight at Su Hongyi.

Su Hongyi's face remained expressionless. Her gaze calmly swept over the man with the rotten face.

The grotesque-faced demon shuddered and emitted a "woo-woo" sound. It wasn't a roar, but a whimper. Its body began to tremble.

"What's going on? Get him!" the scarred man roared. He saw the man with the mangled face standing there motionless, and his face showed some annoyance.

The grotesque-faced monster fell to the ground with a thud. It wasn't standing; it knelt down. Its head was lowered.

It faced Su Hongyi and began to kowtow. Again and again, it made a "thump-thump" sound. The sound was exceptionally clear in the quiet supermarket.

Everyone was stunned.

The scarred man's mouth gaped open, his eyes wide. His E-rank companion ghost on his shoulder was kneeling before a woman?

[Ding! Your wife's emotional stability +10!]

[Ding! Your wife has provided you with a trace of pure ghostly energy, increasing your 'Supreme Ghost Body' experience points by 100!]

Lin Che felt a warm current flow through his body. He looked at the rotten-faced ghost kneeling in front of Su Hongyi, and felt calm. He knew that Su Hongyi's presence was pure suppression for these low-level monsters.

"Rotten face! What the hell are you doing?!" the scarred man snapped out of his daze and yelled. "Get up! Tear them apart!"

The grotesque-faced demon shuddered again. Instead of rising, it kowtowed even faster, letting out a low whimper, as if begging for mercy.

Then, under everyone's gaze, the rotten-faced demon suddenly raised its head. It stared at the scarred man, its festering face filled with extreme resentment.

"Snapped!"

A crisp sound.

The grotesque, withered hand slapped the scarred man across the face. The slap was powerful; the scarred man staggered and fell to the ground.

He had a red mark on his face and blood seeping from the corner of his mouth.

"You! You freak!" The scarred man covered his face, staring in disbelief at his companion ghost.

The grotesque demon squeaked. The sound was like a curse. It slapped the scarred man's face again.

"Snapped!"

The scarred man's other cheek was also swollen. He was completely dumbfounded.

The robbers around them, the customers in the supermarket, and the Dragon Group member were all stunned.

An E-level anomaly actually slapped its own master? And it slapped him twice.

"You traitorous beast!" The scarred man finally realized what was happening and reached for his waist, trying to pull out a short knife.

The rotten-faced demon roared and leaped into the air with its emaciated body. It didn't attack Lin Che, but instead pounced directly on the scarred man.

It wasn't trying to kill the scarred man; instead, it was using its festering face to frantically rub against the scarred man's face.

"Ah! Get away! You rotten face! Ah!" the scarred man screamed. The rotten-faced ghost's skin was decaying and covered in deadly poison.

With just a few rubs, skin began to peel off from the scarred man's face, revealing the flesh beneath.

He let out a piercing scream and rolled on the ground.

[Ding! Your wife's mood level +15!]

[Ding! Your wife has provided you with a trace of pure ghostly energy, increasing your 'Supreme Ghost Body' experience points by 150!]

Lin Che walked to the cart and picked up several buckets of water and compressed biscuits. He glanced back at the scarred man lying on the ground screaming in agony.

The scarred man's face was a bloody mess. The rotten-faced demon was still on him, constantly rubbing its decaying face against him.

"Boss!" The other robbers backed away in fright. The knives and iron bars in their hands fell to the ground. They looked at Lin Che with fear in their eyes.
