In an instant, two Vine Armor Yin Soldiers were dealt with, and the remaining four, seeing this, were terrified.
The strength displayed by Yan Shouyi was enough to make these Vine Armor Yin Soldiers flee in disarray.
Fear flickered across their faces as they retreated, fighting as they went. Finally, their psychological defenses were completely shattered by Yan Shouyi. They dropped their weapons and bolted.
This, however, gave Yan Shouyi the opportunity to finish them.
Yan Shouyi pursued them with extreme speed, dispatching one Vine Armor Yin Soldier with a single slash!
Every one of them was decapitated by Yan Shouyi!
Even the vine armor could not protect them from this beheading. After these Vine Armor Yin Soldiers were annihilated, only shattered tokens remained.
According to Agong, the six Vine Armor Yin Soldiers along the path should have already been dealt with by Yan Shouyi.
However, at the location of the bronze cauldron in the front yard, there was still one Faceless Ghost and six Vine Armor Yin Soldiers.
Dealing with them wouldn't be too difficult. The real problem was the safety of Liu Yiren and Liu Jiaran.
Although the Faceless Ghost was not exceptionally powerful, it was enough to bog down Yan Shouyi. If the six Vine Armor Yin Soldiers were to attack Liu Yiren and the others during this time, Yan Shouyi might not have the energy to protect them.
Leaving them in the perilous Liu family ancestral home was even more dangerous.
Yan Shouyi regretted not bringing Sanyuan and Zhu Shanzao with him.
Yan Shouyi could only take out several Taoist talismans and stuff them into Liu Yiren's hands: "These are Ghost Repelling Talismans and Palm Thunder Talismans. If any Vine Armor Yin Soldiers bother you later, stick these talismans onto them."
Liu Yiren quickly put away the talismans, careful not to accidentally injure Liu Jiaran.
After instructing the two women, Yan Shouyi took a deep breath and kicked open the door leading to the front yard.
In the front yard, the Roof Face Ghost and the Vine Armor Yin Soldiers responsible for guarding the bronze cauldron all turned their heads and stared at Yan Shouyi and the others.
The Roof Face Ghost sniffed the air: "It's someone from the Liu family..."
The Vine Armor Yin Soldiers, unaware of Yan Shouyi's power, raised their weapons and shouted, preparing to attack him.
Yan Shouyi let out a cold snort and threw the tokens he had previously seized at them.
The tokens clattered to the ground. Upon seeing this, the Vine Armor Yin Soldiers were instantly stunned.
This…
Why were these tokens the same as the ones they wore?
Had this brat dealt with all the other Yin Soldiers?!
What about the Faceless Ghost? Where was the other Faceless Ghost?!
The Vine Armor Yin Soldiers felt a pang of unease.
Yan Shouyi said calmly, "My name is Yan Shouyi, and I am a descendant of Lu Ban. If you are wise, you will remove your Yin Soldier tokens yourselves, and I might spare your lives. Otherwise—your fate will be the same as these tokens!"
The tokens were covered in cracks, clearly the result of the vine armor being shattered.
Yan Shouyi was not bluffing.
Immediately, three Vine Armor Yin Soldiers, terrified, dropped their Yin Soldier tokens.
Having lost their tokens, they also lost their vine armor, transforming into a group of weaklings. Some couldn't even stand steadily.
Yet, it was precisely this group of weaklings, with the help of the Lu Shan sect, who were able to storm the Liu family ancestral home.
Liu Jiaran looked at this group of Bai family ghosts, her eyes reddening with hatred.
She suddenly rushed forward, picked up a Yin Soldier token, and was instantly enveloped in vine armor!
The Yin Soldier token also brought Liu Jiaran an increase in strength!
Before Yan Shouyi could react, Liu Jiaran snatched a weapon from a Vine Armor Yin Soldier and decapitated it!
"Liu Jiaran?" Yan Shouyi exclaimed, "Control yourself!"
Unexpectedly, the seemingly gentle Liu Jiaran was merciless in combat.
In contrast, Liu Yiren, who possessed a more adventurous spirit, stood frozen in place.
With red eyes, Liu Jiaran said, "I can't stand it anymore. They killed my family. I must avenge everyone!"
The remaining Faceless Ghost and two Vine Armor Yin Soldiers, who had been wary of Yan Shouyi before, were not afraid of Liu Jiaran.
Enraged, they immediately moved to attack Liu Jiaran.
But as they approached, a flash of lightning suddenly streaked past them, severing a Yin Soldier's arm!
Liu Jiaran looked back, only to realize that it was Liu Yiren using the Palm Thunder Talisman Yan Shouyi had given her!
A talisman meant for self-preservation was now being used by Liu Yiren for offense.
"Damn it all!!" the Faceless Ghost roared in fury.
Yan Shouyi was speechless. It turned out the two sisters from the Liu family were even more eager for a fight than he was.
However, since they had already started, there was no need to hold back.
Yan Shouyi lunged forward, his Soul Severing Blade directly piercing the Faceless Ghost's body, and using the ghost to drag it away from Liu Jiaran.
The Faceless Ghost had some strength, and it was necessary to keep it away from Liu Yiren and Liu Jiaran to prevent it from harming them.
At the same time, Yan Shouyi shouted, "Since you want to take revenge with your own hands, I'll leave these two Vine Armor Yin Soldiers to you. Remember! If you can't win, call me!"
The Liu sisters didn't want to be mere decorative figures. Liu Jiaran immediately launched an attack on the Vine Armor Yin Soldiers.
Liu Yiren was no less capable, holding talismans and focusing intently, looking for opportunities to ambush.
This made the Vine Armor Yin Soldiers, who had initially felt some confidence, experience immense pressure.
One Liu Jiaran was already difficult to deal with, and behind her was Liu Yiren, who was ready to ambush at any moment!
Thus, the two sides found themselves locked in a fierce battle.
Meanwhile, the Faceless Ghost, having regained its senses, quickly transformed into ghost qi and broke free from Yan Shouyi's attack.
Then, that ghost qi coiled around Yan Shouyi, propelling him dozens of meters into the air!
From mid-air, Yan Shouyi looked down at the entire Liu family ancestral home, realizing that it had become a scene of devastation.
If only he had come earlier, perhaps none of this would have happened.
"Yan Shouyi!!"
The Faceless Ghost's voice rang out: "The Ancestor has mentioned you many times, saying you are a malevolent star not to be trifled with. If I kill you today, it will be a great merit!"
Upon hearing this, Yan Shouyi sneered dismissively, "You can try."
"You brash brat, stop being so arrogant!"
The force holding Yan Shouyi up suddenly vanished. The Faceless Ghost appeared above Yan Shouyi and kicked him in the chest.
Even though Yan Shouyi blocked with his arm, he still plummeted towards the ground at an extreme speed!
*Bang!*
Yan Shouyi landed on the roof of the Liu family's main hall, smashing through it!
After landing, he felt his body heavily injured, but the power of the Tian Sha Corpse Puppet began to take effect, rapidly healing all his wounds!
The pain made Yan Shouyi's consciousness even clearer.
"What Lu Ban descendant? You're nothing special! I can kill you like an ant!"
The Faceless Ghost reappeared beside Yan Shouyi, grabbed him into the air, and slammed him against a pillar in the hall!
This Faceless Ghost was likely far more powerful than the one Agong had dealt with.
Yan Shouyi had to admit that he had been somewhat complacent earlier.
While still in mid-air, Yan Shouyi adjusted his stance, flipped, and landed on a pillar. Then, like an arrow loosed from a bow, he shot towards the Faceless Ghost!
The Faceless Ghost snorted and dispersed into ghost qi. As Yan Shouyi expected, he missed again.
"It's useless! Your speed is too slow. As long as I'm vigilant, you'll never catch me!" the Faceless Ghost taunted. "And I can slowly toy with you until you die!"
Yan Shouyi stood up straight and looked around. The surroundings were filled with the Faceless Ghost's ghost qi.
It was like a large balloon, with the Faceless Ghost being the air inside. Yan Shouyi stood within this balloon, unable to see the Faceless Ghost's body anywhere, yet it was effectively everywhere.
If he couldn't find a solution, perhaps, as the Faceless Ghost had said, he would never be able to harm it!
How to solve this problem?
