This was done to slow down the decomposition process and was collectively known as the Nine Apertures Jade.Jiang Qiyun, hearing this, lightly furrowed his brow and said, "Such things no longer exist....A bowl of expensive black dog blood was used up by that gray rat.

Sister Zhao was furious and about to roar at Xi Linzhou, who was guarding outside, when she saw a floating human head.

She was about to scream, but my brother swiftly pulled her back and threw her to the ground.

"Calm down, these things aren't brave enough to come in yet. You broke a corner here, heads would be flying over with everyone around us, right" My brother took out his gear for fighting monsters, looking eager to jump into action.

Sometimes men are the pillars of strength. Seeing my brother so calm, these little witches also calmed down.

"Master Mu, our master is ill and unable to come, so we disciples can only reluctantly guard it. What should we do now"

"What do you want You don't report to me. Figure out how to clean up the temple yourself and don't drag others down. If your reputation falls, don't blame me. Just get out of here and leave us alone." My brother snapped rudely at him.

One by one, human faces protruded from the tent, and the surrounding air was thick with an ominous atmosphere. Xi Lingzhou might have fainted; her physique was inherently sensitive to Yin energy. Surrounded by these heads that had been left in the underground river for many years, she might have already turned into a little red person.

I reached into my small handbag and pulled out a wooden box. I carefully opened a crack in it —

A gust of cold wind blew out from inside, and with a loud "bang," the tent shook violently.

The headless ghost guards jumped out from inside, wielding their scythes and shields, smashing them heavily onto the ground. Ordinary people couldn't see her, but Zhao Jie saw her and screamed, retreating in fright, almost knocking over the altar!

“Damn it! You bunch of witches, are you even capable of anything! All you do is screw things up! For crying out loud, stop freaking out!” My brother roared. “Make another noise and get your asses to the main house! Don’t come here to mess things up!”

Sister Zhao was scared to tears by the headless ghost. She knelt down with a thud, trembling as she said: "Blind eyes, blind eyes... We have offended, we have offended..."

Xintiao ignored them and said to me in a low voice, "Little Lady, these barbarians are defeated soldiers with low morale. They only dare to attack in groups. If my subordinates charge out, these barbarians might scatter and flee. Little Lady, could you act as bait"

My brother shook his head as soon as he heard. “Don't be ridiculous! Asking Xiao Qiao to be bait Don't you fear the Emperor will punish you”

Well... making some bait isn't so bad, is it

I think this Xingtian is so calm. Maybe these heads are no different to him than mosquitoes.

"Please rest assured, Your Highness' physique is very alluring to these things. It would be the best bait. I guarantee your safety." Xing Tian said solemnly.

Xingtian wielded a battle axe and shield, being one of the guardians, he should be very powerful. I nodded and said: "What do you want me to do"

"Remove this side of the formation, tilt the entire array towards here, and then Madam Xiao just needs to walk towards the center. The darkest Yin Qi is in that spot, there will be many things appearing there to attack you. When that happens, I will deal with all those things, and then Brother Elder can disperse the hidden aura from this place." Xingtian said calmly.

You talk so easily, do you really think it will work Let me tell you, if something happened to Xiao Qiao—

"Rest assured, my lord, I have a plan." Xing Tian's belly button mouth opened and closed slightly.

My brother frowned and said to me, "Xiao Qiao, call the little ghost too. It's better to have more defenses. There are too many of these things. Two fists can't beat four hands. We still need to be careful."

This is no trouble, the little demon there is easy to deal with. My brother told Sister Zhao to dismantle the spirit altar, and when I lifted the curtain, I saw two or three heads, quite handsome, rushing towards Xi Linzhou and a man who had fainted.

These heads are gnawing on living flesh with their shriveled mouths. Fortunately, all their teeth have fallen out, but it still hurts to bite like this!

"Xian Tian, help me, I'm going to drag these two people back." I said to Xian Tian.

He leaped forward suddenly, his axe swinging with a mighty force, cleaving the floating heads to pieces!

Most of them were reduced to ash, while a few were shattered into pieces still bearing a few strands of hair... ugh, kind of sickening.

"Damn!" This performance was too shocking. My brother said enviously, "So cool! That axe is awesome!"

As soon as the voice fell, Xing Tian's shield smashed down again, shattering several more.

This posture... it's like cutting melons and vegetables.

Zhao Jie was so scared that she knelt down and burned incense. Seeing how formidable Xing Tian was, I felt much more at ease. The little ghosts on either side of me whispered, "…I've always heard that Xing Tian never leaves a living person after he makes a move. He's truly amazing…"

My brother, seeing how formidable Xing Tian was, confidently said: "Then I won't follow you. Look, the people who came to demand an explanation have arrived. I'll stay here to deal with them, and leave the ghostly business to you."

Several people in Taoist robes ran up from afar, shouting even before they got closer: “What’s going on with this formation over here—”

My brother patted my shoulder and said, "Come on, Qiao."

I nodded, this kind of thing I can handle. Let him focus on dealing with these shrewd people.

The entire encampment was situated on a small hillock, which was covered in thick grass, making it impossible to find solid footing. It was late autumn now, and the leaves of all the trees on the hill were beginning to fall. The ground was thickly carpeted with fallen leaves and decaying foliage.

Such places are prone to “potholes,” which is when you step down and find rotten leaf mold underneath.

The little imp could tread lightly on the fallen leaves, I…could only rely on the lotus blossom.

Seven steps to lotus, but unfortunately I only have seven steps. After taking seven steps, I need to find a place to settle down before moving forward.

No matter which direction the heads flew from, Xing Tian would materialize beside me first. With a single axe or shield, he'd shatter several of them at once.

A scattering of bone fragments flew like smoke, drifting all over the place. Such a strange and desolate road, yet I could walk it with ease and leisure.

The cute little ghost attendant giggled, "Little Empress, you should summon the maidservants of Yin Jingtian Palace to lead you. That way, it would be more like a stroll in the garden."

"...A garden of human heads Don't be so spooky, okay I'm a little nervous myself. I'll perform an exorcism when we get there. The air here is too oppressive and dark, you can barely see the road. We might attract something bad in the future." I said, frowning.

As soon as the words left his mouth, in the dense forest ahead, rows of blood-red, hazy six-pointed palace lanterns suddenly lit up.

These lanterns hung eerily in the forest, like signposts, their warm red light guiding the way into the depths of the woods...that... If you say she's not the real Qi Keqin, where did the real Qi Keqin go"I could tell from his expression that he didn't believe me."Do you believe in skinning the soul In separated souls, soul...
