The sun and moon are both wrong; who made him seek the Dharma?

Shenxian Pavilion.

Although I'm already craving life so badly that it's driving me crazy.

However, Yun Qing still maintained the elegance befitting a courtesan.

She smiled gently, picked up the wine pot on the table, and poured a cup for each of them:

"I am deeply grateful for your kindness today, sir. I would like to offer you a toast."

After saying that, Yun Qing picked up his wine cup and drank it all in one gulp.

The wine slid down her throat, and she tilted her head back slightly, revealing her slender neck.

Xia Chuan quickly nodded, picked up his glass, and drank it all in one gulp: "Drink, drink."

After a few drinks, a blush crept onto Yun Qing's cheeks.

Her watery eyes became hazy, and she looked at Xia Chuan with seductive eyes.

"Qing'er, dance for the young master."

Her voice was softer than before, with a sweetness that made one's bones melt.

Before Xia Chuan could respond, Yun Qing's body went limp as she stood up.

She staggered, her body tilting forward uncontrollably.

"oops--"

She let out a soft cry and collapsed limply into Xia Chuan's arms.

A gentle breeze brushed past Xia Chuan's earlobe, carrying the scent of wine and perfume.

"I am not a good drinker and am feeling dizzy right now."

Her lips were almost touching Xia Chuan's ear, her voice so low it was like a whisper.

"Young Master Haoguang, you don't mind, do you?"

"I really mind!!"

An angry voice boomed from the doorway.

Yun Qing's expression changed, and she abruptly turned her head: "Who is it?"

The door to the private room was kicked open.

A boy with heterochromia stood at the door, arms crossed, his expression indifferent.

Another gray-haired boy stood at the door, glaring angrily at Yun Qing.

"I am Gao Haoguang!"

Sensing the faint magical power emanating from the two individuals, Yun Qing was greatly alarmed:

"A seeker of the Dharma?"

In a flash, she made a quick decision.

"Don't come any closer!"

Yun Qing suddenly stood up, grabbed Xia Chuan by the collar, and pulled him in front of her.

His right fingernail grew three inches long, sharp as a knife, and pressed against Xia Chuan's throat.

She held Xia Chuan hostage and slowly moved him towards the window, her voice shrill and piercing:

"Come here and I'll kill him!"

Gao Haoguang snorted coldly, his chin slightly raised, his tone full of disdain:

"Who cares if he lives or dies!"

Yun Qing scoffed, "Is that so?"

If you really don't care, then you should take action now!

They wouldn't care what I have in my hands.

Leaning against Xia Chuan, Yun Qingli's window was getting closer and closer.

Finally, he pressed himself against the edge of the bed.

Then, to Gao Haoguang's astonishment, Yun Qing's right hand gradually became flat.

The color also faded from flesh-colored to black and white.

Its texture is remarkably similar to that of a traditional Chinese ink painting!

[Innate Supernatural Power: Skin Transformation!]

As her ability to change her body shape was activated, her right hand actually "flowed" out through the crack in the window.

The flat finger, like a piece of paper, silently slipped through the narrow gap between the window frame and the window sash—a gap so narrow that even a little finger couldn't fit through.

As long as her entire body "flows" out, she can escape.

But the next moment.

[Binding Spirits and Commanding Generals]

An invisible hand grabbed Yun Qing's soul, pinning her to the spot.

The supernatural power that was only halfway activated was forced to be canceled.

The flat hand that had been spilling out of the window suddenly bounced back and returned to its original shape.

Under Yun Qing's incredulous gaze, Xia Chuan slowly leaned close to her ear, his voice low and deep:

"Miss Yun, why are you leaving in such a hurry?"

Yun Qing's pupils suddenly contracted.

Was this person faking it the whole time?

She wanted to struggle, to fight back, and to unleash her supernatural powers once more.

But the large hand that gripped her soul remained motionless, and her body was completely unresponsive.

In the end, she could only let Xia Chuan's right hand hold the top of her head.

Five fingers, like iron clamps, were embedded in her skull.

With a "click".

Yun Qing collapsed to the ground.

[Subdued the powerful corpse, gain 300 lottery points]

Xia Chuan shook the dust off his hands and called to Gao Haoguang and Haishan:

"Come quickly and lend a hand. We need to keep her body safe, otherwise it won't look good if others see it."

Before Gao Haoguang could respond.

Xia Chuan's expression changed, and he looked towards the door:

"Wait, someone's already here?!"

Upon hearing this, Hai Shan and Gao Haoguang were both horrified.

They turned and looked towards the door.

A figure wearing a Zhong Kui mask appeared outside the door at some unknown time.

The man was dressed in dark night clothes and wore a Zhong Kui mask.

The mask, painted in red and black, featured wide-open, angry eyes and a bristling beard, appearing particularly ferocious in the dim light.

Even after being caught by Xia Chuan, he calmly showed himself.

He clapped his hands slowly and praised:

"Your Excellency is quite perceptive."

As soon as he finished speaking, Hai Shan's expression turned to surprise and uncertainty.

What's wrong with this person?

Why is his magical power so weak?

So much so that I was fooled.

Hai Shan frowned deeply:

Is it a similar situation to that of the eldest brother?

Xia Chuan narrowed his eyes as he looked at the newcomer.

This soul shape...

Could it be...?

"Mr. Chu Kui?"

Gao Haoguang and Hai Shan were both startled.

Everyone turned to look at the masked figure.

Chu Kui?

My senior said this was the popular star they originally wanted to contact during the day.

"So it's Mr. Chu Kui."

Gao Haoguang took a step forward, holding a magic talisman in his hand.

"Speak, what brings you here at this time?"

Faced with Xia Chuan's direct call, Chu Kui was also filled with doubt and uncertainty.

He subconsciously touched the mask on his face.

How did this person recognize me so easily?

I had come here today to investigate, but as soon as I arrived, I heard screams and sounds of fighting coming from the second floor.

Chu Kui climbed upstairs and saw that a burly man had just finished committing the crime.

Feeling that he was not easy to deal with, Chu Kui decided to leave first and deal with him slowly later.

But the big man immediately discovered his identity.

Left with no other choice, he had to bite the bullet and come out to pretend to be an expert.

But now...

Chu Kui frowned as he looked at Xia Chuan and Gao Haoguang, whose expressions were unfriendly.

Oh no, this doesn't look like a good way to go.

As he pondered, an ancient thought flashed through Chu Kui's mind.

"Young man, there might be something fishy about this."

"Let me do it!"

Chu Kui's face lit up with joy: "Elder Wang, are you going to make a move?"

He had witnessed Old Master Wang's skills firsthand.

The last time he took action was when he was out upholding justice and was cornered in an alley by a group of thugs, who beat him unconscious with a flurry of punches.

When he woke up, all the bullies were gone.

He couldn't remember the specific details, but Old Wang's strength was undeniable.

Chu Kui did not hesitate and completely relinquished control of his body.

Xia Chuan looked surprised.

Just like during the day, has this guy's soul changed?

What's going on?

On the other side, Old Wang, who had taken over Chu Kui's body, slowly opened his eyes.

Those eyes were no longer Chu Kui's young, boyish eyes, but rather a pair of aged eyes that had witnessed the passage of time.

Those eyes stared intently at Xia Chuan and the others, as if they could see right through their true nature.

Chu Kui thought to himself:

"Old Wang, be careful! This man dared to kill someone here, and he has two accomplices..."

Old Wang's gaze swept over Xia Chuan and the other two, with a condescending scrutiny.

"I certainly understand."

His gaze shifted from Xia Chuan to Gao Haoguang, and then to Hai Shan, as if he were weighing the weight of a few stones.

"But you're worrying too much."

After carefully sensing it, Old Wang smiled coldly to himself:

"They're just two minor supernatural powers and a mere mortal."

In fact, Chu Kui didn't understand these realms at all.

Hearing Old Wang's calm tone, he felt reassured and even straightened his back a bit.

Then, he heard Old Wang slowly speak:

"I can't beat any of them."

Chu Kui: ? ? ?

In Chu Kui's incredulous gaze.

The old man residing inside the Zhong Kui mask immediately knelt on the ground.

His knee slammed onto the floor with a dull thud.

The sincerity in his voice was almost overflowing:

"Three heroes, I'll pretend I didn't see this."

"Could you please let me off the hook?"
