Chapter 939: Chapter 939: Encountering a Colleague Chapter 939: Chapter 939: Encountering a Colleague Huang Xiaolong used the light of the burning talisman to dispel all the yin energy lingering around the soccer field, finally revealing the true form of the Dongying fierce ghost “Ghost with a Gigantic Mouth”.
The creature resembled a giant-mouthed catfish, several meters long, but with a head as big as a water jar, its mouth occupying two-thirds of its facial area.
Its body was covered with densely packed small mouths, oozing pus, utterly disgusting.
The gaping maw on its face was open, displaying a tongue more than a meter long, coated with sticky mucus, fragments of bone, pieces of flesh, and bits of internal tissue. A tide-like yin energy burst forth from this giant mouth. However, the most bizarre and eerie sight was the woman dressed in a kimono standing on the tip of its tongue, looking pitifully charming. Upon closer inspection, the kimono-clad woman had no feet, as if her legs had been firmly embedded into the tip of the tongue.
“Little Long… this… this is the Ghost with a Gigantic Mouth…” Ma Chuxia was tremendously shocked. “It’s like a monster. It must be those damn ghost messengers from the Dongying underworld who brought these monsters to our Huaxia.”
Mu Hui and her three roommates, seeing that the surroundings of the soccer field were all filled with these “giant-mouthed catfish,” dozens of them, each with a sinister Dongying woman growing on the tip of their tongues, were nearly scared unconscious.
At that moment, all the Ghosts with Gigantic Mouths squirmed their way towards Huang Xiaolong.
The Dongying women in kimonos situated on the tongues faced Huang Xiaolong, smiling coquettishly, full of charm. Amidst the cold wind, their tender laughter was faintly audible, truly soul-stirring.
“Hahaha~~~ Think these lowly creatures can bewitch me?” Huang Xiaolong laughed hollowly.
The next second, Huang Xiaolong waved his hand, unleashing sharp, all-penetrating Sword Qi that slashed out with irresistible force.
Pfft! Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!
The dense sword rain shimmered with golden light, interweaving into a dazzling net of swords that first sliced into those Dongying women in kimonos.
In an instant, all the Dongying women grown on the tongues were chopped up like vegetables, their beautiful faces contorted and torn, their eyeballs scattering like marbles, viciously glaring at Huang Xiaolong midair, but then bursting apart in the very next moment.
The sword net continued to sweep across, chopping the ghastly Ghosts with Gigantic Mouths into pieces, which exploded open.
In just a few breaths’ time, all the Ghosts with Gigantic Mouths were annihilated.
The ground was covered with stinking chunks of corpses and yin blood, and many nearly digested human skeletons that had been cut out from the bellies of the Ghosts with Gigantic Mouths. It seemed that these Ghosts with Gigantic Mouths had been lurking in Yangzhou City for quite a while, and had secretly eaten quite a few people.
“Ah~~~! Have we… have our souls scattered?”
A group of purple-clad female ghosts lay on the ground in great disarray, their ghostly bodies smeared with filthy, sticky fluid, their ghostly energy greatly weakened.
Although they had just been swallowed by the Ghosts with Gigantic Mouths, as purple-clad fierce ghosts with strong spectral energy, they were not so easy to digest.
By annihilating all the Ghosts with Gigantic Mouths, Huang Xiaolong had also rescued these purple-clad female ghosts from the bellies of their captors.
“So terrifying~~ too terrifying~~~” Mu Hui and her three roommates clung together, nervous and scared, nearly suffocating.
However, having witnessed Huang Xiaolong’s extraordinary divine might, with a single sword stroke, he vanquished a group of ghosts, and they were quickly subdued, their eyes filled with the sentiments of young girls, a glow of admiration for a hero.
“Ah? Little Taoist?” These purple-robed female ghosts all looked up in shock at Huang Xiaolong.
“What’s the matter? Surprised to see me here, aren’t you? Delighted, perhaps?” Huang Xiaolong teased with a smile. “However, had it not been for me tonight, you would have certainly been beyond saving, even Du Shiniang couldn’t have saved you. By the time she would have arrived, you’d already have been digested.”
The purple-robed female ghosts immediately realized that Huang Xiaolong had saved them.
Their hearts were a tumult of emotions. For a moment, they found themselves at a loss for words.
“You are here for Sun Fu’s reincarnation, right? I’m sorry, but I’ve outpaced you. Now, trying to kill her would be exceedingly difficult for you. How about it, care to try?” Huang Xiaolong’s eyes brimmed with a playful expression.
“Ah~~~ No need to try. Thank you, Grandmaster, for your lifesaving grace.” A purple-robed female ghost said dejectedly.
Once Huang Xiaolong decided to protect Mu Hui himself, it wouldn’t matter if these purple-robed female ghosts or even Du Shiniang came, they would still be miserably outmatched. The female ghosts were very clear about this.
“Grandmaster, how did you find Sun Fu’s reincarnation?” A purple-robed female ghost asked reluctantly and with great confusion.
“No comment.” Huang Xiaolong laughed mischievously.
“Grand… Grandmaster…” Mu Hui stammered timidly. “These beautiful ghosts, they’ve come to kill me?”
She had listened to the conversation between Huang Xiaolong and the purple-robed female ghosts, and had roughly understood some of the situation.
“Yes, they all came to kill you. Had I not arrived in time tonight, you would have been done for.” Huang Xiaolong said earnestly, “You better believe me, I’m not trying to scare you.”
“I believe, I believe,” Mu Hui said repeatedly. “I really don’t understand, why would they want to kill me… I haven’t done anything.”
“You scoundrel! You humiliated our mistress back then!” The purple-robed female ghosts snarled and growled at Mu Hui, their teeth bared as if they wished to rush forward and tear her to pieces. However, the aura from Huang Xiaolong suppressed them so much that they did not dare to make a move, realizing that any rash action could result in Huang Xiaolong dispersing their souls in the blink of an eye.
Mu Hui immediately hid behind Huang Xiaolong, choking back sobs in aggrievement. “I didn’t! I never humiliated anyone!”
“Four hundred years ago, you were a man called ‘Sun Fu.’ Sun Fu was a despicable and cunning salt merchant who lusted after Du Shiniang’s beauty and ruined her happy life. He used tricks to break apart the marriage between Li Jia and Du Shiniang, a man of no morals. Under the guise of ‘benevolence and morality,’ he engaged in indecent deeds. Of course, Li Jia was no saint either, as the saying goes, ‘a clean hand wants no washing.'” Huang Xiaolong elucidated.
“Alright Little Long, stop scaring the girl. It’s been several hundred years, and after ten life cycles, the vile acts of Sun Fu have nothing to do with her,” Ma Chuxia chuckled. “Little Long, let’s go find the reincarnation of Li Jia now.”
“Hmm.” Huang Xiaolong nodded, then turned to the purple-robed female ghosts prostrate on the ground. “I’ll spare your lives for now. Come and serve as my maids in three days, together with Du Shiniang. Hahaha~~~”
After finishing his words, Huang Xiaolong directly took out the soul-confining tube and collected all the purple-robed female ghosts scattered on the ground.
“Xiaolong, since Du Shiniang sent these purple-robed female ghosts to kill Sun Fu’s current life, then she must be going to deal with Li Jia’s current life herself,” Ma Chuxia furrowed her brows and said.
“Don’t worry, Qingqing and Xiaohong, these two little monsters, are more than enough to handle Du Shiniang.”
Having said that, Huang Xiaolong gave Qingqing a call.
These two little monsters each had a mobile phone and usually mingled in human society in human form, almost completely assimilated by humans. They were even active on WeChat Moments.
“My lord, we have found ‘Huo Qiu,’ the Richest Man of Yangzhou City, who is Li Jia’s current life,” Qingqing giggled coquettishly over the phone. “My lord, we’ve noticed a ghostly aura darting around outside Li Jia’s villa, which should be Du Shiniang. However, Xiaohong and I deliberately released demon qi to intimidate Du Shiniang, making her too wary of making rash moves against Li Jia. My lord, it’s getting late; you might as well have a sleep. We’ll be here tomorrow. Rest assured, with Xiaohong and me here, Du Shiniang won’t dare to make any hasty moves…”
Xiaohong grabbed the phone, laughing so hard she trembled, “My lord, we won’t go out of our way to kill Du Shiniang. We still have to catch this enchanting courtesan, who captivated thousands, and hand her over to you to pour tea, serve water, warm the bed, and serve as your personal maid. My lord, Du Shiniang was one of the top courtesans when she was alive. Whether it’s playing flutes or handling men, she’s sure to be adept at everything. You are so lucky, my lord.”
“Ha-ha, you little vixen, I didn’t expect you to be so dirty-minded. Alright, make sure to keep a close watch. If anything happens to Huo Qiu, I’ll skin you alive,” Huang Xiaolong threatened half-jokingly before yawning. “Fine, I’ll come over tomorrow.”
After hanging up, Huang Xiaolong put his arm around Ma Chuxia’s slender waist. “Wifey, let’s go back to the hotel and sleep. We’ll find Huo Qiu tomorrow.”
Thereupon, Huang Xiaolong and Ma Chuxia intimately walked shoulder to shoulder towards the outside of the school.
“Master, little miss, wait up~~~” Mu Hui and her three roommates hurriedly ran up, following Huang Xiaolong closely, not willing to be left behind.
Joking aside, they now dared not to leave Huang Xiaolong’s side even for a second. Otherwise, not to mention purple-robed fierce ghosts, even if a few ordinary ghosts suddenly appeared, it could mean the end for them!
Inside the Presidential Suite of a five-star hotel.
Huang Xiaolong and Ma Chuxia went to sleep in the bedroom.
Mu Hui and her three roommates sat on the living room sofa, chatting because they were either too scared to sleep or just couldn’t sleep.
The next morning around ten o’clock, Huang Xiaolong got out of bed and called Qingqing. Everything was OK, she reported.
Moreover, Huo Qiu didn’t go to the company that day. He practiced Tai Chi after getting up in the morning, then read some books, and sorted out files in the study.
Xiaohong and Qingqing used magic to hide from Huo Qiu and all the people in his villa, making them oblivious to the presence of the two little monsters. By now, the two monsters were thoroughly familiar with every grass and tree in Huo Qiu’s villa and every person there.
After eating lunch, Huang Xiaolong took Ma Chuxia, Mu Hui, and the others by taxi to Huo Qiu’s villa.
Outside the villa, Huang Xiaolong indeed sensed Du Shiniang’s presence, hidden in the air, very covert.
However, inside the villa, there was no trace of ghostly energy, indicating that Du Shiniang didn’t dare to enter the villa because there were two very obvious and very dangerous demon qi inside. Needless to say, it was the work of the two little monsters, Qingqing and Xiaohong.
‘Hmm, the protection work of the two little monsters is not bad.’ Huang Xiaolong chuckled mockingly, then looked towards a certain spot where there was nothing, but he could sense Du Shiniang’s ghostly qi. He murmured as if to himself, “What’s up? I’ve found you after all. Get ready to become my personal maid. Ha ha ha~~~”
After speaking, Huang Xiaolong suddenly faced the inside of the villa and shouted out loud, “Huo Qiu, come out!”
Ma Chuxia couldn’t help but giggle at his side. “Xiaolong, you are really straightforward.”
This shout startled all the servants inside the villa, who looked out in shock. Soon, a crowd gathered at the front door of the villa.
You have to understand, Huo Qiu was the Richest Man of Yangzhou City with a very high social status. Even the local officials of Yangzhou City were extremely courteous to him.
No one had ever dared to stand at Huo Qiu’s doorstep and call out his name like this.
Today, the servants in Huo Qiu’s household had their eyes opened wide, their faces a mix of confusion and indignation, as they looked through the iron gate at Huang Xiaolong with none-too-friendly gazes.
“What the heck, is Huo Qiu home? Call him out for me,” Huang Xiaolong said to the crowd of onlooking servants.
“How outrageous! Who’s making such a racket here?” Suddenly, a pleasant young girl’s voice, filled with anger, came from inside the villa.
Huang Xiaolong looked up and saw a girl around twenty-three or twenty-four, holding the arm of a man with graying temples, striding out from the villa, anger evident in her demeanor.
Behind the pair stood several bodyguards with steady auras, all were half-step Grandmasters with sharp gazes.
The man with graying temples seemed to be in his forties or fifties with an air of dignified luxury, his eyes shining with intelligence and an aura of authority.
‘That must be Huo Qiu, Li Jia’s current life, the Richest Man of Yangzhou City,’ Huang Xiaolong nodded to himself.
The girl holding Huo Qiu’s arm was tall and curvy, with delicate features, lotus-like cheeks and willowy eyebrows, cold starry eyes, red lips, and white teeth. Her hair was tied in a ponytail, her skin was porcelain white, she was truly a stunning beauty.
However, when they saw the girl, Huang Xiaolong and Ma Chuxia exchanged a glance.
“Xiaolong… I didn’t expect we’d run into someone from our own profession here,” Ma Chuxia said with a slight smile.
Indeed! The girl was radiating a significant amount of Taoist energy, making it clear that she knew Taoist magic!
At that moment, a demon wind whispered in Huang Xiaolong’s ear, bringing Qingqing’s playful giggle. “My lord, Huo Qiu has come out, and the girl holding his arm is his only daughter. I forgot to tell you over the phone, but the young Miss of the Huo family also practices Taoist magic…”
