Twin female zombies come to the door: My lord, please have mercy!

United Family Healthcare Private Hospital, penthouse ward.

Lin Ye's words exposed the Yinshan Sect's "Soul-Locking Nails" evil technique, and the atmosphere in the entire ward plummeted to freezing point.

Song Zhenguo gripped the golden nanmu walking stick tightly in his hand. He had spent most of his life in the Jiangzhou business world, and he had never suffered such a silent loss when someone ambushed him right at his doorstep.

"Master Lin!"

Song Zhenguo suddenly looked up, his eyes revealing the ruthless nature of a businessman.

"If we can find this scum hiding in the shadows, the Song family is willing to pay another 20 million! I'll make him wish he were dead!"

"Old Song is straightforward. He takes people's money and does their bidding. That's the rule of Taiping Old Street."

A calm smile appeared on Lin Ye's lips.

He turned to look at Ah Biao, the head of the bodyguards standing to the side, and said in an unquestionable tone: "Ah Biao, go and get three things."

"A bowl of uncontaminated water, that is, rainwater or pure water; a small handful of raw glutinous rice; and a live rooster, from which you can collect its comb blood. You have to be quick."

Having witnessed Lin Ye's methods firsthand, Ah Biao dared not delay for a moment and immediately rushed out of the ward as if following a royal decree.

The hospital's logistics facilities were extremely complete. In less than ten minutes, Ah Biao came running back carrying a porcelain bowl full of purified water, a bag of glutinous rice, and a red-bellied rooster with its feet tied and still clucking.

"Master, everything is complete."

Ah Biao respectfully placed the items on the bedside table.

Lin Ye nodded slightly.

He pulled out the seven-section peach wood sword with natural lightning strike patterns from his tactical canvas bag, and lightly flicked the blade with his fingertips, producing a clear, melodious wooden sound.

Just as he was about to cast the spell, a faint light flickered on his retina.

"Ding! My Lord, please exercise restraint. System notification: The system has detected that the host is attempting to reverse-track and attack the evil cultivators of the Yinshan Sect. This action will cross spatial barriers and consume a great deal of true essence. Please make a choice within three minutes to determine the fate of the world!"

[Option A: Shift the blame – After removing the Soul-Locking Nail, immediately hand the magical artifact carrying the enemy's aura to Chu Hongyan of Bureau Nine, letting the authorities deal with the headache.]

[Reward: Salted Fish Value +50. Consequence: This kind of blame-shifting behavior severely lowers your prestige, greatly diminishes the Song family's respect for you, and the final payment is lost.]

[Option B: Yin-Yang Linkage, Following the Clues—Using the primordial corpse energy of the two zombie ladies to disguise one's own yang energy, silently infiltrate the enemy's formation passage, then detonate pure yang lightning and fire to carry out a precise long-range attack!]

[Reward: 400 Official Points, obtain the spell [Thousand-Mile Soul-Binding Technique], and have a very high probability of triggering a high concentration of "Consolation" benefits after the battle.]

[Option C: Solo Fight – Using his pure Yang Dao body, he forcibly removes the Soul-Locking Nails and charges alone into the enemy's lair, following the flow of energy.]

[Reward: Lone Hero title. Consequence: You won't even know where the enemy is; not only will you vomit blood on the spot due to mana exhaustion, but the enemy will also easily sever ties and escape.]

With these three options laid out before him, Lin Ye didn't need to think at all.

Choosing option B not only allows you to perfectly show off, but also offers those enticing post-battle perks.

I choose B.

After silently reciting the words in his mind, Lin Ye turned around and looked at the two stunningly beautiful female zombies behind him.

"Cold Moon, Frost Star. These evil cultivators of the Yin Mountain Sect are as cunning as foxes. Directly pulling out the nails would alert them. I need to use your two Yin energy as a disguise, go against the current, and destroy their lair."

Leng Yue narrowed her deep red eyes slightly and stepped forward without hesitation.

She stretched out her long, slender, cool hands and placed them on Lin Ye's broad back.

Froststar skipped over to the other side, her two small, white hands tightly gripping Lin Ye's left arm, her heterochromatic eyes gleaming with excited light:

"Brother-in-law, don't worry, Froststar will lend you the coldest corpse energy!"

Two completely different, yet equally pure, streams of yin and cold energy flowed into Lin Ye's body through the point of contact.

Lin Ye gritted his teeth and forcibly used his pure Yang body to compress the cold energy to the surface of his meridians, creating the illusion of a pure Yin body.

"Heaven is round, earth is square; laws and regulations are in nine chapters. One dot of heaven is clear, two dots of earth are bright! Using water as a mirror, images are revealed across ten thousand miles!"

Lin Ye chanted the Shadow Chasing Incantation of the Folk Law Teachings, and with his right hand forming a sword finger, he suddenly stabbed it into the rooster's comb.

He held a drop of pure, yang-colored rooster's blood between his fingertips and precisely dripped it into the bowl of rootless water.

Immediately afterwards, his left hand shot out with lightning speed, his two fingers joined together, and he pinched the barely perceptible red dot on the back of Song Ruobing's neck, pulling it outward sharply!

"hiss!"

A scream, like the wailing of a ghostly infant, rang out in the ward.

Between Lin Ye's fingers, there appeared a jet-black bone needle, about three inches long.

The bone needles were shrouded in thick black mist and were still struggling and writhing.

"You monster, trying to run away?"

Lin Ye let out a cold shout and threw the Soul-Locking Nail directly into the bowl of rootless water mixed with rooster blood, then casually grabbed a handful of raw glutinous rice and threw it in as well.

"Sizzle!"

The water in the bowl immediately began to boil, churning as if it were boiling, with black mist and blood mingling together.

A chilling scene unfolded.

The water in the bowl stopped rippled, and its surface became like a smooth black mirror.

A dim image appears in the mirror.

It was a dark and damp basement, with eerie green lights burning all around.

A gaunt old man dressed in a black robe was sitting cross-legged in front of an altar.

The old man wore a necklace made from a baby's skull, and with his eyes closed, he greedily absorbed the wisps of pure yin energy emanating from the altar.

The moment the Soul-Locking Nail was pulled out, the old man in the water mirror suddenly opened his eyes, revealing a pair of extremely venomous triangular eyes.

"Who dares to break my Soul-Locking Formation?!"

The old man's hoarse voice echoed eerily through the water in the ward.

Song Zhenguo and A Biao were so frightened that they took several steps back, their faces turning ashen.

Such a magical technique of transmitting sound across a distance was something they had never heard of in their lives.

Lin Ye stood in front of the bowl of water, a mocking sneer curling at the corner of his mouth.

He moved closer to the water's surface, his voice clear and cold:

"Your grandfather, Lin Ye of Taiping Old Street. You dare to touch the job I've taken on? Today I'll send you to meet the ancestors of your Yinshan Sect."

The old man on the other side of the water mirror was stunned at first, then he saw Lin Ye's face clearly and let out a hoarse, awful laugh:

"You ignorant brat, how dare you speak so arrogantly! So what if you pulled out my nail from a hundred miles away? Once I reopen my altar, I will surely capture your three souls and seven spirits and burn them to the ground!"

The old man didn't take Lin Ye seriously at all.

Fighting from a distance consumes a great deal of true energy. Even the Celestial Master of Longhu Mountain could not possibly injure him in the slightest from such a distance.

Unfortunately, he encountered a pure Yang Dao body that was overpowered.

"Really? Then you should try this dish."

Lin Ye's eyes suddenly turned cold, and he bit his tongue hard.

A mouthful of blood, containing the vast and pure Yang essence, was generously sprayed onto the seven-section peach wood sword in his hand.

"Cold Moon, Frosty Star, aid me in advancing the battle!"

The two female zombies behind him instantly understood.

Golden-red flames flickered in Leng Yue's eyes, while Shuang Xing's right eye shone with a dark light.

Two massive streams of corpse energy transformed into propulsion, flowing into the sword without reservation through Lin Ye's meridians.

"Nine Heavens Divine Thunder, follow the clues! Explode!"

Lin Ye roared and gripped the peach wood sword, which was radiating a bright red light, with both hands, plunging the blade fiercely into the water mirror!

The sword did not shatter the porcelain bowl; instead, the blade mysteriously sank most of itself into the water.

In the water mirror image.

Above the altar in the basement where the old man from the Yinshan Sect was located, the void suddenly tore apart.

A massive sword of light, woven from pure Yang thunder and fire and red lotus karmic fire, descended with terrifying, world-destroying pressure, like divine punishment!

The old man's triangular eyes widened instantly, his pupils filled with endless fear and despair.

He didn't even have time to let out a scream, let alone activate any defensive magic artifacts.

"boom!!!"

A blinding burst of fire erupted in the scene, and the entire altar, along with the emaciated old man, instantly vaporized under the bombardment of pure yang thunder and fire, leaving not even a trace of ash.

"Crack!"

The porcelain bowl on the bedside table finally succumbed to the terrifying force of the impact and shattered into pieces, spilling water all over the floor.

Everything returned to calm.

The backup power supply in the corridor hummed and resumed operation.

The chilling atmosphere that had been frozen in the ward dissipated rapidly, like the first snow meeting the sun.
