Rules of the Strange: I Became a God in a Bizarre World Through Taoist Arts

Shen Xingzhuo admitted that she has never been a patient person with bad people and bad things.

Everything she saw in this ghost story challenged the limits of her patience.

But what she couldn't stand the most was that these personalities, which were supposed to be created to protect, actually betrayed the very thing they were supposed to protect!

Shen Xingzhuo raised her hand and wiped away the blood splattered on her face.

After realizing she needed to become the new dominant personality, her expression gradually turned dangerous.

If her senior and junior sisters were here, they would know that this is the expression she only shows when dealing with evil spirits.

King, Piao Piao, Gregor, danger is imminent!

The short knife flew out, transforming into a streak of cold light.

Piaopiao's arm was suddenly pinned to the wall.

It made a sizzling sound as if it were being burned.

"what!"

Piao Piao panicked immediately, but there was nothing she could do but watch helplessly as her arm was burned away by Shen Xingzhuo's spiritual energy.

Charlotte didn't hold anyone back either.

Despite the excruciating pain of being stabbed in the abdomen, she picked up the dagger that Piaopiao had dropped and used it to cut the thorns binding Jenny.

The two girls helped each other back to a safe place.

Shen Xingzhuo's gaze was now locked on the king on the throne like a falcon.

The king's arrogant demeanor now carried a hint of forced composure.

"Gregor!" The king's voice lost its composure, becoming shrill and piercing. "Go, bite her head off!"

Gregor suddenly opened his blood-red maw, revealing his fangs.

He sprinted from the platform and was already in front of Shen Xingzhuo.

However, in Shen Xingzhuo's eyes, the trajectory of this thunderous attack was as clear as if it were in slow motion.

Just as he approached, Shen Xingzhu used his movement technique, pressing down on his shoulder to propel himself into the air, completing a 360-degree flip in mid-air.

The hand pressing on his shoulder did not loosen; he simply turned quickly, deflecting the force of Gregor's charge.

She smiled and took out the bottle of transformation potion she had saved from her storage bag.

With one hand, he uncorked the bottle, and with the other hand, he swiftly pressed several acupoints on his body.

And while he was in pain and opened his mouth, they poured the medicine into his mouth.

Gregor's eyes widened; he tried to vomit the medicine.

But Shen Xingzhuo grabbed his tongue, preventing him from vomiting.

The medicine slid down his throat and into his stomach.

A chill ran through him.

Before he could make any move, he heard Shen Xingzhuo chanting a spell imbued with spiritual power.

"The profound essence of Yin, listen attentively, wandering souls! Souls, return to your place; spirits, take their final form..."

"From this day forward, you will forever be a dog loyal to the consciousness of this body!"

The transformation potion takes effect at this time.

With the added "blessing" of mental pollution, the effect of Shen Xingzhuo's spell doubled.

Gregor had now transformed into a massive mastiff with glossy black fur.

Despite being twice the size of Shen Xingzhuo, it squatted obediently beside her like a rabbit.

[This...works? Am I falling into a fixed mindset again?]

[Wow! Nobody said the shape-changing potion can only be used on animals!]

[Shen Xingzhuo's move was really impressive. I was wondering why she stubbornly resisted when she played the tag game before.]

But isn't the transformation potion time-limited?

Sister, do you think Sister Shen's spells were just for show?

In the ghost story, Shen Xingzhuo reached out her hand to the big dog.

A huge dog paw gently landed on her hand.

Shen Xingzhu smiled with satisfaction and, imitating the king, pointed in that direction.

"Go, bite the king's head off!"

Gregor immediately obeyed, pushing aside the soldiers and rushing toward the king.

The king's expression changed drastically, and he grabbed two soldiers to stand in front of him.

The situation reversed, and Shen Xingzhuo watched him flee like a rat crossing the street, arms crossed.

The king, however, remained arrogant and continued to spout nonsense at Shen Xingzhuo.

"You can't beat me!"

"Snow White is still in my hands!"

"I will devour her and become the dominant personality! Then, you, all of you, will die!"

Shen Xingzhuo watched him fly into a rage without changing his expression.

"Oh?" she asked with a smile, "But it's not yet Sleepless Night. Even if you ate Snow White, would it do any good?"

The rules explicitly state that someone is allowed to die on a sleepless night.

But if you don't kill someone during a sleepless night...

The rules didn't specify the consequences, but Shen Xingzhuo could see them in Gregor and in herself.

The killed personality will not be successfully integrated; instead, it will turn the person into a beast that is neither human nor demon.

This is why Gregor is a humanoid dog, and why she had an unfamiliar appearance on her face when she first transformed.

As Shen Xingzhuo spoke, he patted his Qiankun bag, sensing that the soul sphere he had previously formed was still there, before turning his gaze back to the king.

The king was now in a very sorry state.

Shen Xingzhuo's voice was calm. "Gregor, come back and sit down."

Gregor immediately abandoned the attack.

Seeing that his cause was lost, the king did not hesitate and turned to run into an unknown corridor.

His voice, ordering the soldiers to stop Shen Xingzhuo, had not yet faded.

Shen Xingzhuo simply took out a purification talisman, and the soldiers vanished into thin air.

Do not pursue a desperate enemy.

Shen Xingzhuo's gaze sharpened as he focused on the individuals present.

She needs to get some rest as soon as possible.

Therefore, you should quickly establish a safe zone for yourself.

[With guests coming and going at the hotel, you hope to meet one or two kind people you can sleep in your room at night.]

Shen Xingzhuo knew that her best and most reasonable choice was Jenny.

Although it is daytime, with her protection, she can rest peacefully in her room for a while.

but……

There's another thing that needs to be addressed.

"Chaoyang... I have a favor to ask." Jenny looked at her hesitantly, "Could Charlotte join us?"

Her face was filled with sadness.

Shen Xingzhuo looked into her eyes, and a wave of sadness washed over him.

After all, she was so radiant when we first met.

Moreover... she always felt that she had taken away the little girl she had always protected from her forever.

After all, although she still has Liya's innocent and cute side after the fusion, she is ultimately not Liya.

"good……"

Her voice was a little hoarse.

Piao Piao, seizing the opportunity, asked with a forced smile, "I also hope we can all have a bright future."

Shen Xingzhuo frowned, looking completely bewildered.

"What makes you think I would forgive you after you betrayed us?"

Piao Piao paused for a moment, then smiled and said:

"But isn't Chaoyang a symbol of hope and beauty? Besides, Baixue is such a kind girl..."

"yes."

Shen Xingzhuo's voice was very soft.

Feeling a glimmer of hope, Piaopiao continued talking to herself, "She certainly wouldn't want to see any of her personalities disappear..."

Unexpectedly, Shen Xingzhuo changed the subject, "But her kindness is not meant for a ghost like you who willingly accepts death."

"Why should I?!"

The shrill whistle suddenly rose in pitch, piercing the eardrums with pain, and the dense yin energy burst out uncontrollably, sweeping up the scattered fragments of tables and chairs around it!

Shen Xingzhuo didn't even look at him. He had already coated the long sword in his hand with a layer of spiritual energy, ready to unleash a massacre.

Unexpectedly, Charlotte was even faster than her, and with a burst of power from who knows where, she plunged the dagger into Piaopiao's chest.

"Because you killed Byron!"
