At midnight, most people were fast asleep, but the spirits in the graveyard had just begun to stir.
I walked through the Dingjiagou graveyard with my backpack, glancing at the empty surroundings. Occasionally, a few wisps of Ghost Fire floated by, and I could hear the distant cawing of crows, creating an eerie atmosphere.
Suddenly, a chill wind swept past, making me shiver. I swung my Peach Wood Sword to disperse a wisp of Ghost Fire in front of me and muttered irritably, "Damn it, why is it so cold!"
"It seems that grave is over there!" I approached the tomb sealing the snake demon, placing my backpack on the ground. I stretched a bit, not rushing to take action. I stood quietly, waiting for Qu Liang to appear.
After about ten minutes, I saw a figure approaching from a distance—it was Qu Liang.
She wore a black tracksuit and held a Peach Wood Sword in her hand. A bulging cloth bag was tied around her waist, filled with a large stack of drawn talismans.
I glanced at Qu Liang's wrist and noticed she wasn't wearing the Silver Phoenix Bracelet. My brow furrowed slightly, and I sighed inwardly, but my expression quickly returned to normal.
"Since you're here, let's get started!" I forced a smile and said in a neutral tone.
Qu Liang didn't explain about the bracelet; she nodded and stood beside me, asking, "Jiang Ling, what are you planning to do next?"
I looked at Qu Liang and pointed to a series of wooden stakes around the grave. "I had Hu Yalong and Qian Duoduo set up fourteen Peach Wood Stakes here in advance. Each stake is inscribed with runes that can suppress Evil Spirits!"
"These fourteen Peach Wood Stakes are arranged according to the Erqi Demon Suppression Formation and can trap demons that have cultivated for a hundred years!"
I took out a folding shovel from my backpack and walked over to the grave. I planted the shovel on top of the tomb and said, "What we need to do now is dig open this grave, use the demon-suppressing formation to restrain the snake demon beneath it, and then take it down!"
"What do you think?" I asked as I looked into Qu Liang's eyes.
Qu Liang nodded and walked towards me, saying, "Let's do it this way! I'll help you dig the grave!"
Qu Liang reached in front of me, took the folding shovel from the ground, and began to dig the soil on top of the grave. I took out another folding shovel from my backpack and joined Qu Liang in digging.
After about half an hour, we had dug a one-meter-deep grave and had already hit the coffin below.
With the moonlight shining down, I saw that it was just an ordinary coffin, but on the lid, there was a golden swastika engraved.
I felt a strong demonic aura emanating from inside the coffin. Although the swastika on top radiated a Buddhist light, it could not suppress the demonic energy coming from within.
"This should be it! We finally reached the end!" I sighed in relief, climbed out of the grave, tossed the folding shovel aside, and wiped the sweat from my forehead.
"Qu Liang, it's time to make a move!" I picked up the Peach Wood Sword from the ground and turned to Qu Liang.
Qu Liang's eyes transformed into snake-like slits as she laughed ominously, "Haha, that's right! It's time for me to act!"
I glanced at Qu Liang and noticed she was holding a Peach Wood Stake in her hand. A sense of unease washed over me as I quickly looked around the graveyard.
I saw that out of fourteen Peach Wood Stakes on the ground, only one remained. My expression darkened as I looked at Qu Liang and asked, "Qu Liang, what are you doing?"
Qu Liang threw the Peach Wood Stake in her hand onto the ground and walked towards the last remaining stake with a sinister smile. "Jiang Ling, you don't need to put on an act in front of me. I know you've already guessed my identity; otherwise, you wouldn't have given me that magical bracelet!
"But I didn't fall for your trick; I didn't wear that bracelet to come here. Now you can see how you plan to deal with me!"
I looked at Qu Liang, who had revealed her true form, and sighed. "Snake Demon, I originally thought you truly cared for me, which is why I reluctantly gave you the Silver Phoenix Bracelet. Now it seems you've been acting all along, so I have no reason to hold back!"
I picked up the Peach Wood Sword in my hand and pointed it at Qu Liang, my tone icy. "Tonight, only one of us will leave alive!"
Qu Liang drew her last Peach Wood Stake and approached the opened grave, gazing excitedly at the coffin below. "Seven years! Seven years! Brother, you are finally coming out!"
With a murderous glint in her eyes, Qu Liang looked at me and said, "Jiang Ling, you’ve killed so many of my subordinates. Tonight, I will kill you and offer your flesh and blood to my brother!"
As she finished speaking, she clenched her hands into claws and lunged at me.
I quickly took out several talismans from my body and affixed them to the Peach Wood Sword. Then I bit my fingertip, using my blood to write a Command Character on the sword.
With my left hand forming a Seal, I struck it onto the Peach Wood Sword and shouted, "Ultimate Earth, Mystical Arts Have Methods! The Dao punishes evil; no demon can withstand it! Command!"
As soon as my words fell, a layer of red flames ignited around the Peach Wood Sword. I swung the sword toward Qu Liang.
"Haha, Jiang Ling, can you really bring yourself to strike?" Qu Liang smiled as she faced me head-on without any intention of dodging.
"Damn it, how shameless!" Afraid of injuring Qu Liang, I didn’t dare to strike her directly. Gritting my teeth, I forced my right hand to swing down beside her instead.
"Hehe, that's more like it!" Qu Liang grinned with a sense of triumph as she rushed toward me and reached for my chest.
Her fingers had grown sharp claws; if she caught me with them, my chest could be pierced.
"Damn it, here goes!" I threw away the Peach Wood Sword in my hand, pulling both arms back to protect my chest and blocking Qu Liang's attack.
Qu Liang's nails pierced my arm, leaving five bleeding holes that made me nearly cry out in pain.
"Bring it on!" I saw Qu Liang's left hand move toward my neck. I forced myself to step back, biting my tongue until it bled, then spat a mouthful of Tongue Blood at her face.
Tongue Blood is the strongest manifestation of Yang Qi within the human body and has a powerful restraining effect on evil beings. Even if a snake demon was hiding inside Qu Liang, it couldn't escape the damage from Tongue Blood.
"Ah!" When Tongue Blood splattered on Qu Liang's face, it felt like her skin was on fire. She quickly reached up to wipe it off.
Seizing the moment, I grabbed the bag on the ground and pulled out the Cinnabar thread soaked in Black Dog Blood, wrapping it around Qu Liang several times.
"What do you think you're doing?!" Qu Liang opened her eyes and tore through all the Cinnabar threads on her body, glaring at me with malice.
"I'm all in!" Seeing that the Cinnabar threads couldn't restrain Qu Liang, I tossed them aside and gritted my teeth as I lunged at her.
Caught off guard, Qu Liang fell to the ground beneath me. Taking advantage of her momentary confusion, I quickly locked her limbs with my body.
I glanced around at the dark surroundings and shouted loudly, "Lan Yue, are you done yet? If you don't finish soon, just wait for me to collect the bodies!"
