C59

The woman grabbed me and whispered, "I heard that her house is very strange. You guys have to be careful. It's best if you bring the Mage along!"

"I got it, thank you for the reminder!" I thank you again.

With that, the woman went back to work. He Yi had also learned Zhong Min's eighth mistress' personality. "What did you just say?"

Zhong Min rushed to say, "She said that the old lady's room is really strange and wants us to bring you with us!"

He Zuyi smiled, "See, this mage's reputation is great!"

"Tch!"

The house was next to the house, like a couple of quadrangles connected together, the woman said. The old lady's room was the one at the back of the house on the north side, and we followed the little hallway she pointed out to us, and we came to the little house on the north side.

The wood on the door was a little moldy. There were some moss at the foot of the wall, and some yellow mud. Perhaps it was because the sun could not be seen all year round, but inside, it was very damp and cold.

He Shuyi prepared to charge forward, but I hastily stopped him, "Wait!"

"What!" He Wenyi turned his head to look at the Daoist robe that I had grabbed.

"I'm fine!" I laughed. "I almost slipped!"

He Wenyi looked at the bottom of my foot and didn't say anything.

"Bang, bang!" I rapped on the door twice and listened. It was quiet.

I shot a meaningful glance at He Sanye before he shouted, "Old Lady Liu, are you inside?"

There was still no response from inside. He Yi shouted again, "Old granny, there's something I want to talk to you about."

Just as he finished speaking, the wooden door opened by itself with a creak.

The light in the room was extremely dim. As we stood by the door, we were still unable to adapt to the light within the room.

Mrs. Liu, dressed in red and green, sat by the small window with her back to us. Her voice had a hint of youthful vigor. "Since you're here, come in and have a chat."

Inside, the air was stuffy and damp, as it had been before the storm, sticky and breathless.

"Old lady, you know why we're looking for you, right?" I asked.

"Ga ga." The old lady cackled and slowly turned her head, her face startling us.

Her face was not exactly the same as the one she had seen this morning. Although she looked a bit younger, it was as if several people had fused together to form a face on her face.

The old lady grinned. She had three lips, and her teeth were as sharp as a cat's.

Zhong Min took a look, and with a "sou" sound, she hid behind He Zunyi, who took a few steps forward and stood in front of me and Zhong Min.

"You refined an evil art?"

"Hehe!" The old lady smiled charmingly. "Are you afraid?"

"No!" He Zhiyi was righteous throughout his life, "I'm a Taoist, I'm specially able to take in a wicked old demoness like you."

The old lady put her finger to her cheek. "Am I old? I won't be old! "

"Did you eat Liu Eternal's soul?!" As I looked at her, I felt a chill run down my spine.

"Are you looking for me to ask about my number two?" The old lady, no, it would be more accurate to call her old demoness. She stared at me with a ferocious expression.

He Wenyi hurriedly blocked in front of me, "With me here, don't even think about harming anyone!"

"I know that everything is yours. When you first came here, I knew that you were a scourge and wanted to get rid of you. I didn't expect that you were a cat with a tough life." There was a hint of pity in her tone.

"Could it be that the person who attached himself to Liu Eternal last night was you?" I found it inconceivable that there were souls of living people attached to the bodies of the dead, showing me more knowledge.

The old lady pursed her lips and smiled sweetly, neither denying nor admitting, but instead saying something she didn't want to close, "When I was young, I had a hard time, dragging two children by myself, two children were not able to live up to their expectations, they lost all their family properties, and then finally managed to muster some courage, they all got married, but I don't have the fortune to enjoy them anymore, who are you for in my life?"

He Wenyi raised his peach wood sword. "Don't change the subject. Did you eat Liu Eternal's soul? Was the person in the forest last night you?"

"You want to know?" The old lady tilted her head, looking slightly flirtatious. "I won't tell you. With your abilities, I won't care. They've already had enough. It's my turn now."

"So Liu Eternal is really you. "Where are you going to kill me? Marriage is something you eat!"

"I can't eat my son's soul. I only took his soul in exchange for his youth and beauty. I didn't enjoy it when I was young, so I'll enjoy it when I get old.

"Exchanging Liu Eternal's life for your youth and beauty, is there any difference between this and eating his soul for a long life?" Zhong Min stuck her head out from behind He Chengyi's back, looking exceptionally angry.

The old lady stretched out a finger and pointed at Zhong Min. "You little girl, your eight words are all the same. If I take your soul, I can live for three more years!" As he spoke, he pounced towards Zhong Min.

"Why did you save him!?" Zhong Min wailed like a ghost as she tugged on He Wen's daoist robe.

Seeing the old lady pouncing towards him, He Zunyi hurriedly put a yellow talisman on the old lady's shoulder. The old lady glared angrily at He Zunyi.

"An insignificant skill!" The old lady used her hawk-like claws to struggle to pull the talisman off her body!

"Old witch, look at my sword!" He Yi was chanting an incantation. The peach wood sword turned red as he stabbed towards the old lady.

A peach wood sword was easily slashed by a sword, but it couldn't pierce the old lady.

"Zhong Min, let go!" Zhong Min was sweating profusely and dragging He Yi's daoist robe like a small tail as she ran.

"No, don't you see that old hag wants my soul?" Zhong Min followed behind and shouted.

"Ouch!"

With some carelessness, he was easily beaten by the old lady, causing him to stumble and almost fall down together with Zhong Min.

"Ga Ga!" At some point, the old lady had gained two tails, one in her hand and the other resting on the ground.

"I already said that your cultivation experience is no match for me!" The old lady put her tail on her face, looking very pleased with herself.

He Wenyi looked at me. "Qiu Fei Fei, it's your turn!"

"Me?" I had to hide a few times to avoid being hurt by the old lady's tail.

Why is it that even an expert like Ye Zichen was injured by the old lady? Can I do it?

No, let's go first!

"Old Lord Taishang is in a hurry, hurry up and leave!" I chanted an incantation and hit the old lady.

The old lady dodged very easily. However, the incantation landed on her clothes, burning a small hole on her brand-new jacket!

Seeing her brand-new clothes burnt a hole, the old lady's face grew long.

"You're courting death!"

The fingernails were long and hard, and the old woman was screaming as she attacked me.

I touched the chain on my hand and tried to use it on the peach wood pearl. I didn't know if it would work or not, but the scythe on my wrist was still useless as I saw the old lady's fingers were about to poke into my face.

It scared me so much that I hurriedly closed my eyes, "Bang!" It was accompanied by the stench of blood.

"My hand!" The old lady's eyes were wide open as she looked at the two black nails that had been hooked off by the sickle. Her face was filled with pain and her nails were like fingers that were bleeding out blood.

It looked very strange!

Eh, this little thing is working. I hold the palm-sized sickle in my hand, and I am secretly delighted.

"Damned girl!"

The old lady screamed as she dashed towards me. Her tail coiled around my waist, strangling me so much that I felt like vomiting all the food I ate in the morning.

He held the Sickle of the God of Death in his hand, blocking the old lady's claws while rolling his eyes at the tail hanging from his waist.

"What? You're a dead man!" I struggled to utter those words.

He Zhiyi was enlightened, "Oh, oh! But my peach wood sword and talisman paper are useless against her! "

"Old Lord Taishang is in a hurry, hurry up and leave!"

"Pah!" The incantation landed in the old lady's hands, but it was of no use.

"Old Lord Taishang is in a hurry, hurry up and leave!" I cast another incantation. I didn't learn anything else from my old lady and used a spell to cast it. I used it to perfection!

The old lady blocked the incantation and with a "Zi" sound, the incantation landed on two of her broken nails.

"What?! The talisman was stuck on her broken fingernail!"

"AHH!" The old lady's eyes widened as she turned around and threw me to the ground.

"Consort Fei, are you alright?!" Zhong Min rushed over and helped me up from the ground. She looked at the small sickle in my hand and asked, "When did you get an item?!"

"Take the talisman paper that He Wenyi gave you and find a place to hide!" I hastily pushed Zhong Min down. I was afraid that without any mana, she would become the old lady's food!

"Oh, oh!" Zhong Min quickly found a narrow place to hide.

I looked at the sickle in my hand. Can't you try a little harder?

The size of a palm!

"He Yi, I'm coming!" I hastily used the scythe to hack at the old granny. I didn't know where she got the cinnabar to rub on the peach wood sword, but it was still effective.

The old lady's four black nails were cut off by my scythe, and her clothes were burnt several times by the spell.

He Zhiyi stuck the paper charm on one of the old lady's broken fingernails. Half of her body immediately stopped moving, but she still used her tail to give He Zhiyi a big ear shave.

He Wenyi touched his swollen cheek and spat at the old lady, "You old demoness, today I'll burn you to ashes!"

The old lady let out a bit of blood, but it had already changed beyond recognition. Her face looked like a human or a cat, so it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that she was an old lady with a cat face.

She panted heavily as she looked at me with a venomous gaze. "You little girl, you still have some ability. But, you're still too inexperienced!"

"Hiss!" She took a deep breath. Her neck was stretched out at an odd angle, and her eyes were wide open. It was as if her throat was choked with phlegm and she was snoring.

He Wenyi thought that she was going to use a powerful technique, so he hurriedly took a few steps back. I was so scared that I hurriedly held the scythe to my chest, ready to retaliate at any moment.

He Wenyi was also fully prepared, but the old lady suddenly turned around and bit off the arm that was stuck on the talisman paper. Half of her missing piece of flesh was still hanging from her sharp teeth.

"I already said that you guys won't be able to hold me back!" The old lady laughed so hard that her mouth was just behind her ear, and she was so pleased with herself that she swung her big tail and threw the tables and chairs in front of us. Like a boneless cat, she shrunk herself into a small ball and leaped toward the window, trying to escape through the small opening.
