While in Hollywood, I used Taoist magic to quell American terrorism.

As Cao Kun cast his spell, the Wenxin Hall suddenly became cold and gloomy.

Suddenly, a figure appeared in mid-air, its face covered in bits of flesh, with countless maggots churning within it. As soon as it appeared, it viciously pounced on Cao Kun.

"snort!"

Cao Kun snorted coldly, and with a flick of his wrist, the peach wood sword thrust forward.

"what!"

The figure screamed and flew backward, its body becoming slightly transparent.

Cao Kun's gaze fell on it. Because its face was covered with bits of flesh and maggots, its gender could no longer be determined by looking at its face alone.

Judging from his physique, he should be a man.

Cao Kun was disgusted by the other man's face: "Wasn't it you who killed three people here before?"

The figure remained silent, but his eyes were filled with crazed malice.

"I'm giving you two choices: one, I'll beat you to a pulp."

As he spoke, Cao Kun pointed in Lawrence's direction: "Second, go next door to me and put your skills to good use."

The figure glanced at Cao Kun and the peach wood sword in his hand, then flashed through the wall and disappeared from Cao Kun's sight.

………………

Lawrence was sitting on a single sofa, looking at the television screen in front of him.

On the screen, there are two naked little figures fighting.

Lawrence's eyes gleamed with greed, and his hands moved at lightning speed.

Just then, the lights in the room suddenly changed, turning a ghastly green.

Lawrence paused in his hand movements and looked up at the chandelier above.

This sight startled him.

A dark shadow was perched on the chandelier. Green light shone on the shadow, making it difficult to see clearly, but it seemed to be a person.

Lawrence was startled and stood up abruptly. When he looked closely, the shadow on the chandelier had disappeared again.

"What happened?"

Lawrence looked around warily, but saw no one.

boom!

The sudden sound almost made Lawrence's heart stop.

He turned his head and saw that his fish tank had burst, water was spilling all over the floor, and several fish were struggling and jumping on the ground.

"Lawrence, Lawrence..."

Suddenly, Lawrence heard someone call his name.

His heart tightened, and he looked in the direction of the voice, only to find that the person calling his name was actually the man and woman who were fighting on TV.

They stared intently at him, baring their gleaming white teeth, and calling his name over and over again.

"FK!"

Lawrence stepped back, only to trip over his trousers at the knees and fall to the ground.

He braced himself with his hand, but instead of a hard surface, he felt something soft and slippery, and something was constantly wriggling inside.

He looked down and found that it was a rotting face covered in bits of flesh, with countless maggots writhing inside.

"what……"

Lawrence let out a heart-wrenching scream and jumped up.

He wanted to run outside, but his body wouldn't obey him.

A chill started at his ankles and slowly crept upwards.

Calf, thigh, waist, abdomen...

"Heip...Heip...Heipmi..."

Lawrence shouted, but no one appeared.

Until that bit of coldness spread to his head, making him open his mouth wide, but unable to make a sound.

Despair appeared in Lawrence's eyes.

………………

Cao Kun vaguely heard screams coming from next door, which sounded very tragic.

A relieved smile appeared on his face as he began to tidy up the altar.

As for that evil spirit, since others have already done things for him, he doesn't intend to deal with it.

As long as the other party doesn't provoke him, he'll pretend he didn't see it.

Presumably, after killing someone, it should leave on its own and not stay any longer.

morning.

Cao Kun was awakened by the exclamations outside.

He listened intently.

"Lawrence is dead, Lawrence is dead..."

Cao Kun got dressed and walked out of the store, only to see a crowd gathered at the entrance of Lawrence.

Some people are talking about Lawrence's death.

Upon seeing Cao Kun, someone immediately said, "Cao, Lawrence is dead. Did you hear anything yesterday?"

"Lawrence is dead?" Cao Kun looked surprised and shook his head. "No, I didn't hear anything. How did he die?"

"We'll have to wait for the police to arrive and for the forensic doctor to perform an autopsy to find out."

The man shook his head: "Old Neil is really unlucky. First, someone died here, and then Lawrence, he's going to lower the rent again."

Cao Kun: "Isn't this a good thing for us?"

"It's good for you, I wouldn't dare live in a house where someone has died."

Shortly after, the police car arrived.

It was the same old faces: Sheriff Ford and Laura.

Upon seeing Cao Kun, Sheriff Ford and Laura both had somewhat strange expressions.

Sheriff Ford walked over and said, "It's only been a few days, how come someone has died here again?"

Cao Kun: "Let me make this clear, this time it's not here, it's next door."

Sheriff Ford: "I'll talk to you now, I'm going to check on the body."

Sheriff Ford and Laura entered Lawrence's shop.

After a while, Laura came out, her brows furrowed: "They died horribly, even worse than the three people who died at your place last time."

Cao Kun asked her, "How did he die?"

Laura: "He gouged out his own eyes and died from the pain, with blood everywhere."

That's ruthless.

Cao Kun couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

Laura asked Cao Kun, "Master Cao, I remember you had a grudge against those three people from last time, right?"

Cao Kun smiled slightly: "What are you trying to say?"

Looking at Cao Kun's smile, Laura sensed no genuine joy: "No, just asking casually. Why is death always so often seen around you?"

Cao Kun: "Perhaps, death likes me."

Laura: "This is not a good thing."

Cao Kun smiled but didn't reply.

Shortly after, the forensic doctor arrived.

Cao Kun, as a neighbor, also gave a statement.

After that, the matter had nothing to do with him anymore.

When Old Neil arrived, he was furious and unleashed another torrent of abuse on Lawrence's corpse.

It has an extremely high F content.

Cao Kun walked over and patted him on the shoulder: "Old Neil, how much are you planning to reduce the rent for your shop?"

Old Neil glanced at Cao Kun: "What's it to you?"

Cao Kun: "If you can't rent it out, you can come to me."

Old Neil: "You want to rent it together?"

Cao Kun: "It's just an idea; it's not finalized yet."

Old Neil: "Lawrence's shop is bigger than yours, and his rent is $3800 a month. If you want to rent it, I can give you $3500."

"goodbye."

Cao Kun, his face dark, turned and left.

Old Neil shouted, "It's your loss if you don't rent it."

Cao Kun: "You'll just have to wait and see how you manage to ruin it yourself."

"Impossible, my shop will definitely be rented out." Old Neil's voice was still loud.

Since cultivation was useless anyway, Cao Kun didn't spend any time on it.

In the evening, after preparing some food for himself, he continued drawing talismans.

After a period of continuous drawing, his success rate has improved significantly.

at night.

Cao Kun suddenly opened his eyes.

In the darkness, he saw a figure standing in front of his bed.
