I was almost eaten at the beginning, luckily I was able to transfer the negative status

boom! !

A terrifying explosion echoed in the silent night.

An extremely terrifying flame was released by the Burning Mountains and Boiling Seas Gu, instantly turning the surrounding houses and tiles into hot ashes.

"Ha ha ha ha……"

“No—”

Seeing that the Burning Mountains and Boiling Seas Gu began to destroy houses and cities under his control, the male Gu cultivator suddenly laughed loudly towards the sky with great joy and excitement.

However, before he could laugh for long, his powerful Mountain-Burning and Sea-Boiling Gu suddenly shattered into pieces like a piece of porcelain. In the blink of an eye, it shattered into pieces on the ground, and it looked like it was deader than dead.

"No! This city cannot be destroyed!"

The leading female Gu cultivator was horrified and quickly spoke out to remind them, and quickly took back the many Gu insects she had released.

Seeing this, the other female Gu cultivator and the male Gu cultivator who had lost a powerful Gu worm also took back their respective Gu worms.

Then, the male Gu cultivator roared in anger:

"Damn it! We also destroyed quite a few houses when we attacked the people from the Thousand Spirit Sect, Aries Academy, and Golden Gate Temple in the city. Why can't we destroy them now? I spent so much effort to successfully control the Burning Mountains and Boiling Seas Gu, this damn Red Demon!"

"The rules in this evil domain should be changing. We can't act rashly anymore." The leading female Gu cultivator said sternly.

……

Just when the three men from Danghun Mountain were massacring the city.

In the timeline where Liao Wenqing, Lu Yao and Tong Zhi are located.

"Senior brother."

Lu Yao, who was originally having a headache because he had not received a signal response for a long time, was thinking about the reason when Jiang Huairen's voice suddenly came.

In an instant, the three of them saw Zhou Heng, Jiang Huairen and Tong Miao walking out of an alley not far away.

"What's wrong with you? Why aren't you responding to our signals?"

Looking at Zhou Heng and the other two approaching, Lu Yao frowned and asked Jiang Huairen a question.

Hear the words.

Jiang Huairen scratched his head and said with a wry smile:

"Brother, we were planning to come look for you, but we unexpectedly received your signal, so we rushed over immediately. We didn't have time to reply. Brother, we made a great discovery at the Liu residence."

"What big discovery? Did they find the people from Danghun Mountain?"

Lu Yao was instantly attracted by Jiang Huairen's words and didn't care about the trivial matter of whether to reply to the letter or not.

Liao Wenqing and Tong Zhi, who were standing by, also cast inquiring glances at Jiang Huairen and the other two.

"We discovered at the Liu residence that the eldest daughter of the Liu family was already dead."

"what?"

Lu Yao and the other two were immediately shocked by the news.

You know, according to what they had learned from the merchants near the Huang Mansion, the bride in the sedan chair carried by eight people was none other than the eldest daughter of the Liu family.

Now Jiang Huairen said that they found that the eldest daughter of the Liu family was dead, which really made them confused.

"Could it be that the young master of the Huang family ran away from home because he knew that the eldest daughter of the Liu family was dead?"

Lu Yao couldn't help but recall the information he and others had gained in the Huang Mansion.

……

In the timeline when the Chinese New Year is approaching.

Before I knew it, it was already the hour of Hai.

At the place where Zhou Heng and others first stopped after entering the city, Ji Zhilan, Song Xiaochun and Tong Shan had been waiting there to meet as per the original agreement, but as time passed, there was still no sign of Zhou Heng and others.

It's been a long time since I last waited.

Ji Zhilan didn't delay any longer and immediately suggested:

"Could it be that our brothers are in danger? Fellow Daoists, let's each use our own methods to send them a signal."

"That's right."

"good."

Song Xiaochun and Tongshan nodded in agreement.

Then, the three of them sent out the signals that they had previously agreed upon privately to Zhou Heng, Liao Wenqing, Lu Yao, Tong Zhi and others.

Not long after, about half a minute later, although Zhou Heng, Liao Wenqing and others had not replied yet, their figures appeared in front of everyone.

See this situation.

Ji Zhilan and the other two immediately went to meet them.

"Amitabha... Senior Brother, why did you come so late?" Tongshan looked at Tongzhi who had rushed over and asked.

Hearing this, Tongzhi said with a smile:

"Amitabha, we found some small clues while searching for the people in Danghun Mountain, so we came a little late."

"Amitabha, I see. Brother, I wonder what clues you have found?"

"Let's talk about this later. It's getting late now. Junior Sister, have you prepared your New Year supplies?"

Just when Tongshan wanted to ask Tongzhi in detail, Lu Yao suddenly asked Song Xiaochun.

Hearing this, Song Xiaochun was stunned for a moment, then quickly nodded: "I'm ready."

"Well, without further ado, let's find a place to stay and spend the night first."

Lu Yao continued.

Zhou Heng, Liao Wenqing and others all expressed their agreement with his proposal.

Seeing this, Ji Zhilan and the other three didn't say anything more, and immediately followed Lu Yao and the others to find a place to stay.

However, until they found that the streets were empty and it was almost four quarters past midnight (that is, midnight the next day), no residents, not even inns, were willing to let them stay.

When they tried to break in privately, they were instantly blocked by a layer of strange red light.

“It seems like there’s some kind of rule here that no one can stay overnight during the Lunar New Year.

With our strength, it would not be difficult to break in by force, but there is a high probability that we will directly confront the evil spirit.

Confronting the evil spirit directly so early would go against our original intention.

Therefore, I think we should use extraordinary means to build a house and then spend the night on this street. What do you fellow Taoists think?

"What Fellow Daoist Lu said makes sense. I think it's okay."

"Amitabha... I also think that Daoist Fellow Lu's method is feasible."

Seeing 'Liao Wenqing' and 'Tongzhi' voiced their agreement one after another.

Lu Yao didn't delay any longer and immediately looked at Song Xiaochun and said, "Junior sister, come and get a house."

"Me? Oh, sure."

Song Xiaochun couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly muttered:

"The Master said: 'A mansion with a thousand rooms, sheltering all the poor and the needy, bringing joy to their faces' (The word 'ande' is missing here, but this is the setting of the book's Confucianism and Taoism, and a few more or less words doesn't matter. If you, the mono-core creatures, see this, I hope you can argue about anything, but don't argue with me about the basic setting of the book)."

The moment Song Xiaochun finished speaking, a house made of stone bricks suddenly rose from the ground, as if it were real.

Then, Lu Yao immediately spoke:

"Very good, fellow Taoists, quickly follow the example of the city residents and decorate your homes with New Year supplies."
