Yu Longting walked towards me with hurried steps, followed by Lin Hang, who was holding a seemingly asleep young girl in his arms, her lower body resembling that of a serpent. "Lin Gang, you black-hearted son of a turtle, your time is up, I'm telling you."
Yu Longting walked straight towards me as I looked up joyfully, "Did you find Xintang? And you rescued her? Why are you dressed in ancient attire... I'm still not quite used to it."
"I came in a hurry, so I didn't change out of the clothes I wear in the sect," Yu Longting explained anxiously as he grasped my hands, "Wife, listen to me, I've done nothing to betray you, nor have I touched another woman; you truly are the only one for me."
"You don't need to be so nervous; I've never doubted you. Do you think I'd be foolish enough to believe Lin Gang?" I contained my urge to hug Yu Longting, considering the crowd around us.
Yu Longting suddenly grabbed the back of my head, pulling me into his embrace, "I should have taken you to my sect; I miss you so much it's tearing me apart."
"Hey, don't get mushy at a time like this, Lin Gang... what if he runs away..." I used all my strength and nearly got a neck injury, just to lift my head and look in the direction of Lin Gang.
Lin Gang, cunning by nature, saw the bad situation and took off with a dead fox fetus.
This guy knew the Eight Trigrams walking technique of the Mystic Sect, covering what seemed like a hundred steps in one.
As Lin Gang was about to get away, Yu Longting's wide sleeves fluttered lightly.
Two Black Snakes shot out, resembling black arrows drawn taut on a bowstring.
One entwined Lin Gang's ankle, and the other constricted around Lin Gang's neck.
Lin Gang tripped and face-planted, yet he let out a cold chuckle.
With a slight toss, he threw the baby high into the air.
Such a fall to the ground would undoubtedly crush its brain.
Though it appeared lifeless, a dead fetus.
It bore features of a fox, giving it a rather eerie appearance.
I rushed forward attempting to catch the newborn, covered in purple bruises, but suddenly, a dark shadow flashed by, snatching the baby into its arms.
That person turned out to be Lin Gang, who had unexpectedly grown a fox's head; he emitted a strange purple mystical power and easily shook off the Black Snakes that bound him.
He stood on the pointed top of a pagoda-shaped stone lantern, his wide robes fluttering in the wind, "Long time no see, Yu Longting! Su Wan!! You and your wife had the audacity to harm my woman's fox fetus."
"Xuanjing! You are Xuanjing!" I blurted out, immediately realizing Lin Gang was possessed by Xuanjing.
"Xuanjing, how does it feel to have your cultivation powers greatly increased?" Zhang Shuying drew the Money Sword that he carried behind and also jumped on a stone lantern.
Xuanjing's greenish eyes tinted with a sinister gleam, he sneered: "Thanks to you, after taking Zhang Family's Three Treasures Heart Sutra and Su Qiang's pair of eyes, I wonder when else I would have broken free from that coffin."
I looked towards Zhang Shuying. Xuanjing was not only capable of invoking spirits into others but could even leave the Fox Coffin.
The reason he was still possessing Lin Gang was likely because the Lin Family's place was a critical location of the Mystic Sect, and he couldn't enter on his own.
"I must have been out of my mind when I allied with you and attacked on your behalf, and now I have to deal with a fox problem. I, the Taoist Master, will have to take care of it myself," Zhang Shuying regretted, sending countless talismans flying from his sleeve, coordinated with his Money Sword.
Striking through the air, his move was unstoppable, heading directly for Xuanjing's face.
Xuanjing stood still, flicking his finger invisibly, "Overestimating yourself."
A black Qi Force charged out, instantly crushing all of Zhang Shuying's preparations.
Caught off-guard, Zhang Shuying stumbled backwards several steps.
With severe tremors in his chest, he vomited blood frantically, nearly spilling his guts, and his Life Lamp dimmed suddenly.
Despite knowing that the Blood Splendor Robe had been used too many times and was almost ineffective,
I immediately took off my coat, quickly stripped off the Blood Splendor Robe I wore underneath, and draped it over the barely breathing Zhang Shuying, "You've sustained severe internal injuries; Xuanjing's power has reached monstrous levels."
