Just A Daoist Who Occasionally Kicks Ass-Chapter 484: The Mysterious Woman in a Bright Red Dress! The Clash of Dragon and Tiger! The Town Runs Deep!
According to his judgment, this guy’s abilities were not only extremely strange but also incredibly cunning, with a filthy mind.
Even if he spoke of some method, Li Yanchu wouldn’t trust it, as it could very well be a trap. Rather than waste brainpower, it was simpler to just kill him and avoid second-guessing himself.
Look at that, what a simple, straightforward idea!
BANG!
The Daoist golden light, combined with Soul Snare, directly shattered the Phantom.
This ghost, a derivative of the Liu ancestral hall’s Eight Trigrams Tower, was completely obliterated and utterly dissipated. It faced a sudden, shocking end. The Phantom never expected that he could have hidden in the background as a mysterious hand pulling strings, only to be restricted at every turn after encountering this bastard.
And in the end, he was directly caught. He had intended to trade information to secure his survival and was confident in doing so. With his cunning mind and strange abilities, he could have maneuvered effortlessly, even easily luring and killing this little bastard without breaking a sweat.
But the Phantom never anticipated that this young man wasn’t interested in whatever secret he might hold about leaving the mysterious town. And he wasn’t even given a chance to speak, just outright slaughtered.
What a crude brute! That was the Phantom’s final thought.
Li Yanchu had noticed while watching TV shows in the past that many clever people thought that they could manipulate everything and control brutish warriors with ease.
But in reality, a single stab could kill, a brick could crush. Not all schemes succeeded, and not everyone was open to negotiation. At this moment, he was the one who could not be negotiated with.
BOOM! BOOM!
A cataclysmic battle erupted within the Liu ancestral hall. Quickly, Li Yanchu led everyone to shift the battlefield and move away.
Whether it was because the problems within the Liu ancestral hall hadn’t been fully resolved, or something had gone wrong, even after killing the Phantom and toppling the Eight Trigrams Tower, Li Yanchu still didn’t achieve what he wanted, which was to leave this mysterious place.
This made him frown. Unless he left alone and forcibly deployed a powerful artifact from his primordial spirit... But having already saved so many people, what would be the point of that?
And he couldn’t just watch them remain here, one misstep and they’d be devoured by the ghosts.
The town’s plot had already been thoroughly disrupted by him; terrifying monsters kept appearing, the difficulty had risen to nightmare mode, and with just their group, they’d likely be wiped out in a single round.
At this moment, a beautifully shaped, graceful female body appeared within the blood cocoon. Of course, the woman was fully clothed and not naked...
She was a stunning woman dressed in a bright red long gown, her eyes brimming with endless allure. Her crimson lips added to her charm, yet carried an indescribable killing intent. It was hard to imagine that the disheveled, hideous monster from earlier was actually such a beautiful woman.
“Who was kind enough to let me out? I’ll be sure to repay him properly.” The woman in the red dress smiled enchantingly.
The blood cocoon vanished completely, condensing into a streak of blood‑light that fell into the woman’s hand. It was an ancient, solemn long sword, narrow in blade and entirely crimson, and it emanated an overwhelming sense of pressure!
“Taotie? No... just a strange creature born from a fragment of its remnant soul. Interesting.” The woman in red pursed her lips, brimming with killing intent.
An endless sea of blood bloomed behind her, and she struck with her sword.
CLANG!
A sound like massive bronze bells shook heaven and earth, thereafter a gash appeared across the giant ghoul’s body. However, it healed rapidly; it had devoured too many evil spirits and had grown into something terrifying beyond measure.
The woman in red narrowed her eyes slightly, surprised, letting out a soft “oh?”
“Which blind fool raised him to this level? This is utterly sinful.”
Though she carried immense power, she had only just escaped confinement. To fight this ghoul would not be easy.
Her cold gaze swept across the surroundings and landed where Li Yanchu and the others were hiding. A chilling murderous aura instantly enveloped everyone, like they were being stared down by a primordial beast!
“Young Daoist, thanks. I’ve had enough of this damned place.” The woman in the red robe suddenly laughed lightly.
What the hell is she?
Li Yanchu was full of confusion.
He could understand a hideous monster being suppressed beneath the Eight Trigrams Tower, but how did that monster suddenly turn into a beautiful woman in red with complete rationality and no trace of ferocity?
“This woman is a variable... Did I just blow things up again?” Li Yanchu frowned.
If she were a completely irrational monster, he was sure she would end up clashing with that man-eating, ghost-devouring giant. When two tigers fought, one was bound to get hurt, just like earlier when the Phantom fought the terrifying ghoul.
Right now, that giant ghoul was basically his top-tier fighter. It had eaten all the ghosts from the inn, slaughtered many in the houses, allowing him to collect lots of magical artifacts and later helped him deal with the yin-yang master.
Then it ate all the ghosts in the Liu ancestral hall, weakened the Phantom... Calling it his top fighter was no exaggeration.
But now this woman actually had this level of consciousness... which might be trouble.
Taotie’s remnant soul? At this moment, Li Yanchu didn’t pay it any mind. He was pondering a more pressing question: Which side did this woman even belong to?
Was she just a ghost illusion? Did she transform from a disheveled monster into a beautiful woman on purpose?
If this lady in red knew Li Yanchu was thinking such things, she would definitely slice him down without hesitation!
But she didn’t know, and all she saw was that this young Daoist looked extremely pleasing to the eye. He was handsome beyond comparison, with a transcendent immortal aura. And he had released her from beneath the Eight Trigrams Tower and helped her break free from the pollution of foul blood.
She was satisfied with what he had done, so she decided to help this young Daoist kill the giant ghoul!
“Ugly thing, even if Taotie were reborn, I wouldn’t fear it, let alone a mindless beast like you. Die!”
The woman in the bright red dress raised her sword and charged forward. Her battle with the giant ghoul erupted in a flurry of clangs and booms!
“Senior Cao Cao, what do we do now??” Zhang Wei asked nervously.
He was originally powerful at the second realm, but now he was just an ordinary person.
Li Yanchu thought for a moment. “Earlier, I thought the key to breaking the situation was in the Liu ancestral hall. After that, I suspected it was the Eight Trigrams Tower. But it turns out I was completely wrong... This town’s secrets run far deeper than we imagined. Let them fight for now, we’ll withdraw.”
He sighed.
Who would’ve thought that Phantom creature had such low status? Killing it still didn’t let him leave the Liu ancestral hall.
