A faint, eerie breeze swept in.

He slowly appeared, and the dense malevolent aura that had been surrounding Zhou Shen was now as thin as egg drop soup.

Its golden armor was tattered and broken, and its face was gloomy and solemn.

With a "bang," he slammed the chipped longsword into the ground, using one hand to steady his swaying body.

It was as if a fierce battle had just taken place...

"Oh dear! What's wrong with you?"

Yin Liuli suddenly stood up, her heart clenching tightly.

The moment she saw Yin Liuli, she trembled all over, overwhelmed with mixed feelings of sorrow and joy.

"Wow!"

It swallowed hard, let out a desolate roar, and, using its long sword for support, bent one leg with difficulty before Yin Liuli. It raised its hands in a fist salute, turned its face away, and whispered...

"Master, oh dear, I have failed in my mission! I have not protected the person entrusted to me by you! Please punish me!"

Yin Liuli's nose tingled, and she quickly raised her hand to help him up, her voice slightly choked.

"Waaah! Get up! You're practically a ghost, what crime are you begging for? You've done nothing wrong!"

"Wow...that old man is really something!"

"This humble general was nearly beaten to a pulp by him, failing my master's expectations. This humble general is guilty!"

A layer of mist appeared in his dark pupils.

It drew its long sword, raised it high in front of Yin Liuli, and said with a forlorn expression,

"Please punish me, Master! Master, I am utterly useless! If you do not wish for me, please find someone better, and I will have no complaints..."

As a ghost servant of its master, the master's words are commands.

However, it failed to complete the task its master had entrusted to it, and felt deeply ashamed.

"Snap"

Before she could finish speaking, Yin Liuli slapped the long sword out of its hand, both angry and amused, and scolded it with a pained expression.

"Are you out of your mind?! What are you thinking? When did I ever say I didn't want you anymore?!"

He sniffed and said in a muffled voice,

"This humble general's defeat in this battle is due to his incompetence, this humble general..."

Before she could finish speaking, Yin Liuli raised her hand and poked its forehead hard, saying with exasperation, "You're such a disappointment!"

"Shut up! You're a grown man, why are you so petty? If you can't beat them, so be it, what's the big deal?"

Waaaa, her body trembled slightly, and she stared blankly at her.

"Thank goodness you're alright! Thank goodness you didn't perish, otherwise where would I find such a good informant again?"

Yin Liuli's voice suddenly choked with emotion, and she abruptly opened her arms, tightly embracing its shoulders.

"Victory and defeat are common occurrences in war. You were a general in your past life, don't you even understand this simple principle?"

"Since you've become my informant, you'll be my informant for life. Don't even think about running away!"

Suddenly, a sparkle appeared in her eyes, which had been filled with disappointment.

"Owner……"

It slowly stood up, its body towering more than half a head above Yin Liuli, and its physique was even more robust and muscular.

Although his soul was unstable and his aura was not as strong as before, he still had an innate sense of oppression when he stood up.

The slender Yin Liuli appeared exceptionally petite and delicate in his presence.

"You idiot! You big idiot!"

Yin Liuli raised her hand and punched it, laughing and crying at the same time.

"Come here, I will calm your soul and stabilize your spirit. From this day forward, you will come back to me, and my true energy will be enough to help you cultivate."

He swallowed hard, his voice trembling.

"This humble general thanks you for not abandoning me, sir!"

When Gu Jinyan was afflicted by the Corpse Demon, it was firmly trapped by a "Heavenly Net" specifically designed to deal with vengeful spirits.

He endured several lightning strikes, and his malevolent aura almost completely dissipated. He gritted his teeth and held on to his last breath.

What use is a vengeful ghost without malevolent energy to its master?

Wow, I've imagined countless times what it would be like if Yin Liuli didn't want it anymore, but I never imagined that I was so important to her!

It couldn't quite describe the feeling in its heart, but a sense of profound peace and security welled up inside it.

Yin Liuli gathered her true energy at her fingertips and drew a "Seven Stars Gathering Soul Talisman" on her palm. With a flick of her fingers, a flash of spiritual light appeared at her fingertips.

"The Way cannot be described, yet the stars shine brightly; the Big Dipper, with its seven stars, gathers the light of the three souls, and condenses the energy of the seven spirits! So be it!"

The Seven Stars Gathering Souls technique uses the Yin energy of the Big Dipper to gather the souls of wandering spirits and enhance their power.

Since spirits do not have a physical body to attach to, the talismans used to calm and stabilize the souls of the living are not effective against them.

A flash of inspiration occurred.

"what……"

It felt as if a powerful force was being injected into my body.

He opened his arms wide, looked up at the sky and roared, a burst of power expanding within him.

Its surrounding aura, which was thin and flowing, visibly thickened and became denser.

"alright."

Yin Liuli cast spells in succession, causing her to become somewhat unsteady.

She swayed a few times before raising her hand to tap her ear and slowly saying, "Come in."

Waaaa pursed her lips deeply, her eyes swirling with indescribable emotions. She shook her body and transformed into a wisp of green smoke, disappearing inside.

It wants to follow this owner for more than just a lifetime!

Yin Liuli calmed down for a moment, then frowned and said,

"Senior Brother, help me lift Gu Jinyan onto the bed. I need to remove the corpse demon from him."

"Junior sister, you've overexerted yourself. Take a rest before we talk."

Chu Lingyun quickly helped Yin Liuli up, her clear, melancholy eyes filled with heartache, and she gently comforted her.

"Removing the corpse demon requires a lot of true energy, and it cannot be cleaned up in a short time."

Liuli, take care of yourself first...

Seeing Gu Jinyan's furrowed brows and his prolonged silence, Yin Liuli decisively shook her head.

"I can still hold on, but the longer the corpse demon stays in his body, the more dangerous it becomes."

Once the evil energy damages his vital energy, he may never wake up again in this lifetime…

"Alright, Senior Brother will protect you."

Chu Lingyun pursed her lips, and suddenly felt an indescribable envy for Gu Jinyan.

He moved Gu Jinyan to the bed, made him sit cross-legged against the wall, and then turned around and stood outside with his back to the two of them.

"Gu Jinyan, it's going to be tough for you in a bit, but you have to hold on no matter what."

Looking at that pale face, Yin Liuli said softly, "With me here, I will definitely not let anything happen to you."

As she spoke, she slowly unbuttoned Gu Jinyan's clothes, stripping off his upper and lower garments.

His slightly heaving chest was exposed.

His chest muscles were firm, well-defined, smooth, and strong, with rows of neatly arranged abdominal muscles, exuding a powerful and masculine presence.

Yin Liuli's gaze lingered on him for a moment, then looked at his face.

I really don't know how this usually carefree guy trained like this.

It was the first time she had ever seen a man's chest.

At Xuanqing Temple, after she turned seven, her master explicitly forbade her fellow disciples from appearing in front of her shirtless, and she was not even allowed to sleep naked.

She took a deep breath, held her breath, and channeled her inner energy to her fingertips. She then raised her hand and drew a "Celestial Master Exorcising Talisman" on her palm.

With a flick of the finger, a flash of inspiration appeared at the fingertip.

Yin Liuli sent the spiritual light into Gu Jinyan's brow, lowered her eyelids, and carefully observed the spiritual light splitting and spreading in his brow, traveling throughout his body.
