Although I was very worried about Hu Yalong's safety, there was nothing I could do at the moment but anxiously wait for Lan Yue's investigation results.
After more than two hours, I had not received a call from Lan Yue, but unexpectedly saw Jiang Bao and Cheng Zhong appear at the shop entrance.
Jiang Bao glanced at Liu Zhenxian and the others sitting at the entrance, a look of surprise flashing in his eyes. His gaze remained fixed on Liu Zhenxian, as if he wanted to see through him before he would relent.
Feeling uncomfortable under Jiang Bao's stare, Liu Zhenxian couldn't help but look up at him and coldly said, "Kid, if you don't want to die, then get lost."
Jiang Bao was not someone to be compared with Wu Jie, who had just recently entered the scene. From the moment Jiang Bao laid eyes on Liu Zhenxian, he already knew his identity.
At that moment, Jiang Bao drew the Seven Star Mysterious Dragon Sword from behind him and quickly approached Liu Zhenxian, his tone dark as he said, "Oh, I didn't expect to encounter an Eternal Ghost King here. That's quite rare. However, there are few who dare to speak to me like this. Now I want to see what you can do to make me back off."
"Hmph, looking for death, are we?" Liu Zhenxian snorted coldly. He set his phone aside and summoned the Eerie Aura within him, charging toward Jiang Bao.
He Ying and Wu Jie sensed that something was off and quickly abandoned their game of Honor of Kings. They rushed to my side, panting heavily. After two or three seconds, once He Ying had calmed her breath, she anxiously said, "Jiang Ling, this is bad! Liu Zhenxian is fighting with those two; you need to go break it up!"
"Don't worry; I can handle those two," I replied with a smile as I quickly walked toward the shop entrance. The moment Jiang Bao made his move, I felt his aura; even if He Ying and the others hadn't come over to scold me, I would have gone over to join in.
"Kid, I didn't expect you to have some strength; no wonder you're so arrogant," Liu Zhenxian said with a serious look at Jiang Bao, though he showed no fear.
At that moment, gritting his teeth, Liu Zhenxian pulled out a human bone stained with fresh blood and bits of flesh. The bone was enveloped in his Eerie Aura and quickly transformed into a formidable Ghost Weapon. A murderous glint flashed in Liu Zhenxian's eyes as he swiftly formed a Daoist Spell with his left hand and chanted aloud: "Ultimate Earth, Mystical Arts Have Methods. With the path clear, ghostly arts conceal the eyes. With my bone as a conduit for Eerie Aura, annihilate this person. Command of the Underworld Bone!"
As soon as Liu Zhenxian finished speaking, the Bone Knife in his hand emitted a bloody light while several strands of Black Ghostly Aura lurked within that light, making it appear exceptionally terrifying.
“What is going on?! How can he merge two completely different attributes into one technique? Just who is this Eternal Ghost King?” Jiang Bao furrowed his brow. Although he was wary of the sword energy coming from Liu Zhenxian, he still saw a chance to win.
Jiang Bao unfastened the Round Seal on his chest, drawing upon the power sealed within him by a demon, which boosted his Daoist Magic by about thirty percent. Now, Jiang Bao's cultivation had barely reached the peak of Master Rank.
Of course, Jiang Bao was not done with his technique. He swiftly cut open his palm with the Seven Star Mysterious Dragon Sword, letting his blood stain the blade.
Jiang Bao's expression remained calm as he quickly formed a Hand Seal with his left hand and shouted loudly, “Ultimate Earth, Mystical Arts Have Methods! Supreme Three Pure Ones, Daoist Guardian! Grant me Daoist Arts, bestow upon me Blood Demon! Exorcism Technique, Dao Blood Extermination! Sacrificial Dao Blood, eradicate Evil Spirit! Supreme Old Lord, hasten as commanded!”
As soon as Jiang Bao finished speaking, the Seven Star Mysterious Dragon Sword emitted a crisp cry. A red sword energy, no less powerful than that of Liu Zhenxian's attack, shot forth from the sword and slashed toward Liu Zhenxian's Ghost Weapon.
“Bang~~” A tremendous sound erupted at the shop's entrance as the two red lights collided, creating a shockwave that blew through the shop and sent talismans flying off the wooden shelves.
“Pfft~~” Jiang Bao spat out a mouthful of blood, his face turning pale as he looked at Liu Zhenxian with a grave expression. He had just exchanged blows with Liu Zhenxian and suffered internal injuries from the impact, which caused him to cough up blood.
“Ah! You dare to injure my foundation; I will kill you!” Liu Zhenxian roared from the other side. He was not in good shape either. The Ghost Weapon in his hand had been cleaved in two by the sword energy of the Seven Star Mysterious Dragon Sword, and a fist-sized wound had been pierced into his chest by the same sword, causing his soul body to tremble and appear unstable. His cultivation was on the verge of dropping from Eternal Ghost King level.
Killing intent radiated from Liu Zhenxian's eyes as he pulled out another bone from his body and summoned the Eerie Aura within him to refine it into a new Ghost Weapon. Once prepared, Liu Zhenxian charged at Jiang Bao once more with his newly forged weapon.
Seeing Liu Zhenxian rushing toward him, Jiang Bao’s expression remained unchanged. He sheathed the Seven Star Mysterious Dragon Sword and turned to Cheng Zhong, who was standing nearby. In a calm tone, he said, “Cheng Zhong, this Ghostly Being is yours to deal with.”
If it came down to a life-or-death struggle, Jiang Bao had the ability to fight Liu Zhenxian. However, even if he won against Liu Zhenxian in such a scenario, he would be injured himself. For the sake of his future plans, he decided to let Cheng Zhong handle Liu Zhenxian.
Cheng Zhong wore a standard smile as he stepped forward a few paces to stand in front of Jiang Bao. Nodding confidently, he said with a grin, “Young Master need not worry; this Eternal Ghost King won't make any waves in my hands.”
No one knows the true level of Cheng Zhong's cultivation. However, last night, Jiang Bao witnessed Cheng Zhong effortlessly eliminate an Eternal Ghost King, which made Jiang Bao have great confidence in his strength.
"Old man, what are you doing? Hurry up and get out of the way!" Liu Zhenxian saw Cheng Zhong as just an ordinary person, so he didn't take it seriously. However, when he noticed the faint smile on Cheng Zhong's face, an ominous premonition suddenly arose in his heart.
At that moment, a glimmer of killing intent flashed in Cheng Zhong's eyes, but it quickly vanished. He let out a cold laugh and muttered to himself, "Hehe, another Eternal Ghost King. This is truly a boon for me."
