“Everyone, old and young, what are you afraid of? As long as we have Hongdeng Niangniang (Red Lantern Goddess), what demon or ghost dares to cause trouble on our mine?”

Having driven away the unwelcome guest, Hu Ma was quite satisfied, but naturally he couldn't show it. He simply carried the red lantern and strode around the mine, his body stirring up baleful aura to sweep away the remaining Gu worm aura in the valley.

Finally, he soared into the air and hung the red lantern on the gatehouse, its faint red light shining brightly.

The flesh-cutting artisans beside him, who had been frightened all night and nearly lost their lives several times, all felt a sense of relief and knelt down to kowtow to the red lantern.

Even though the witch people were still causing trouble over there, they now had a deep sense of awe for Hongdeng Niangniang, feeling that just by worshiping the red lantern, their hearts were at peace.

Amidst the deep reverence, Old Abacus was quite dumbfounded, looking at the red lantern with its faint red glow on the gatehouse, and at Hu Ma, who was walking towards the valley with his hands behind his back and holding a knife, thinking to himself, "Is our Hongdeng Niangniang really that powerful?"

"The little thing just built a temple, logically speaking, that wild fox spirit just now should have a deeper Dao than her..."

Hu Ma hung up the red lantern and looked towards the outside of the valley, but he didn't relax. Instead, he sighed softly, "These witch people are very determined."

Above his head, the light of the red lantern fell quietly, penetrating the impenetrable darkness and illuminating patches of faint, blurry outlines. Hu Ma saw the dense forest outside the valley.

He also saw a pale, indifferent face by a tree near the valley, standing outside the valley, hidden in the darkness, until illuminated by the faint red light, and then slowly blinking its eyes.

It wasn't just that one face, there were countless faces beside the dense trees outside. They were all standing by the trees, old, young, women, and children. When the light of the red lantern shone out of the valley, they had been standing silently in the darkness.

Before the red lantern was hung up, they seemed non-existent. When their faces were suddenly illuminated, it was quite startling.

Each of them was wearing the black clothes of the witch people, with silver ornaments on their heads, reflecting a faint light under the red lantern.

"Ah yo."

Even Grandpa Sun beside him was startled when he suddenly saw this scene and exclaimed softly. He was a smart man. Seeing that the thing invited down by the Yiqian Sect Dharma King had been driven away, he abandoned the idea of taking action.

He was now wondering how to make himself look like an outsider, but now that Hu Ma's red lantern was hung up, he looked outside and was suddenly startled.

Those expressionless faces were more frightening than seeing a ghost in the middle of the night.

"What's wrong?"

Hu Ma smiled softly and took the initiative to speak to the old man, "Old sir, you only think your disciple is smart, knowing to send a secret message, but you didn't think that the witch people were also well prepared?"

Old Mr. Sun opened his mouth, but was speechless.

The invisible silence seemed to merge with the darkness, giving people a strange pressure.

It seemed that this was all called by the Wugong clan leader, or rather, he had agreed with these people from the beginning. This wasn't just some decision of the Wugong clan leader, but a major event that the entire witch people group was going to do together.

First, the monkey wine sealed the valley, ensuring that the things inside the valley wouldn't be transported away, nor would they be harvested in a short time. Then, the Wugong clan leader prepared and brought Neng Neng and Wu Ya into the valley, using the fear of the people in the valley to refine Gu worms.

If it could be refined, he could naturally control the situation in the entire valley, but he was also guarding against accidents. The witch people waiting outside the valley were his prepared backup.

If he could outwit them, he would outwit them. If he couldn't, then all the witch people would swarm up and kill all the flesh-cutting artisans in the valley, forcibly seizing the things in the ore vein, even at all costs.

Judging from the movement Hu Ma had just heard in the wooden house, only the monkey wine responsible for sealing the valley had an accident in Wugong clan leader's entire plan. He didn't know where it had run off to, so he could only have the witch people outside replace the monkey wine and cast Gu on the people in the valley.

The people from the Yiqian Sect came over and caught the people casting Gu in the forest, thinking they had exposed all the tricks, but unexpectedly, they had just stirred up a hornet's nest. As soon as they received the news, all the witch people came along.

They still thought this was a struggle between a few individuals, but the witch people had already regarded this as a major event for their entire clan.

However, they had only sealed the mine earlier, so when did they decide that the entire clan would mobilize together to plot the things in this blood food mine?

Hu Ma thought about it for a moment and couldn't help but smile bitterly. It was this red lantern above his head.

At first, the witch people only sealed the valley, presumably they hadn't thought about being so extreme, but when the red lantern was hung up, they became afraid. After some consideration, they came up with this chilling array.

Thinking in his heart, Hu Ma stood under the gatehouse, in the light of the red lantern, slowly put his hands behind his back, squinted his eyes, and looked outside.

Outside the valley, those expressionless faces hidden in the darkness, occasionally illuminated by the red light, were also looking at him. The two sides stared at each other in silence, but no one spoke.

"Squeak, squeak..."

Compared to the silence outside the valley, the valley was extremely lively.

It had to be admitted that this monkey wine, or rather Wu Song, was really a genius!

Through the previous Gu fighting, reincarnators could often be regarded as geniuses among ordinary people, with much greater opportunities to learn skills than others.

But monkey wine was a genius even among reincarnators.

Just now, he had faced Jiutian Lianhua Shengmu (Nine Heavens Lotus Holy Mother) alone, Wu Ya, who had entered the mansion to guard the year and had become an evil existence after swallowing the Black Tai Sui, and the Wugong clan leader, who had possessed a strange Gu worm and possessed strange magical powers, and he hadn't been beaten to death.

What realm would one have to be in to dare to withstand the combined attack of these four? But he had actually held on, and three of his seven incarnations had survived, which was an unimaginable skill.

And now, he had used the bones of the Five Fiends to strike, instantly driving away the Jiutian Lianhua Shengmu, reducing nearly half of the pressure on the monkey wine, and had also crippled most of the magical powers of that mysterious Gu worm, so the pressure on his head instantly decreased, giving him an excellent opportunity.

And now he was taking advantage of this opportunity...

To heal?

Just now, he had created an opportunity for him, allowing him to capture Wu Ya. Logically speaking, with three incarnations approaching at the same time, he had countless opportunities to destroy Wu Ya's body. No matter what was hidden in Wu Ya's body at this time, as long as this body was destroyed, there would be nothing to do.

But he didn't. Instead, all three incarnations grabbed Wu Ya, and the Gu worms on their bodies crawled into Wu Ya's body one after another.

If this method was used to harm people, it would be the cruelest way to torture people, but Hu Ma knew that monkey wine wouldn't do these things to Wu Ya, so he wanted to use the Gu worms on his body to try to dispel something in Wu Ya's body?

He couldn't help but sigh softly, "Damn sis-con."

Since Wu Song couldn't spare his hands now, he naturally had to deal with these witch people outside himself.

He clenched the black bone in his hand behind his back, and also clenched the hilt of the sawtooth knife. He was surrounded by a cold baleful aura, straightened his body, and his figure seemed to merge with the red lantern, blocking the front of the valley.

"Wu Ya, Wu Ya..."

On the other side, the Gu worm possessed by the Wugong clan leader was making intermittent cries, trying to awaken Wu Ya, but now Wu Ya, as the Gu worm entered her body, was also frozen in place. For a long time, she didn't react like a puppet.

And behind him, Hu Ma's approach also put great pressure on the Wugong clan leader. He didn't know how his godly Gu worm, which he had refined by using himself as a vessel, had been easily broken by the other party's magical powers.

These Han people in the Hongdeng Society had skills, but in his impression, they were only like Zhuang Erchang, so how could they be so powerful?

So, in panic, he finally made a sharp, strange noise.

The witch people outside the valley, who were silently standing by the trees, waiting quietly, almost making people feel as if they had no souls, suddenly moved.

Because they were too silent and too obedient, their movements seemed unusually unified. They took out all kinds of Gu basins from their sides, and then knelt down silently.

With pious expressions, they seriously kowtowed to their Gu basins, moving slowly, but incessantly.

One bow, two bows.

Because there were too many people, it seemed that their kneeling movements caused a gust of wind. Gradually, one by one, semi-transparent shadows appeared beside them, followed them, and formed a circle around the Gu basin, kowtowing.

There were already a large number of witch people outside, and now that these semi-transparent shadows appeared, following them to kowtow, it was as if the entire forest was densely packed with people.

Inside the valley, even Grandpa Sun, who had entered the mansion, couldn't help but change his expression, staggering slightly, subconsciously looking for an escape route.

Old Abacus had just breathed a sigh of relief, but when he looked outside, he was suddenly so frightened that his face turned pale.

Hu Ma's face also slightly condensed. He put away the black bone in his hand and sighed deeply as he faced the witch people kowtowing silently outside the valley.

He saw that as the witch people kowtowed, more and more semi-transparent shadows appeared beside them, each with an expressionless face, only knowing to follow their movements and bow to the Gu basin, and even had many traces of defects or insect bites on their bodies.

Gradually, invisible black gas emerged with their kowtows. The moon above, which was already gloomy and inexplicable, was now quietly blocked by this black gas, forming a huge and strange shadow.

Evil God!
