Although the little apprentice sister is weak, she can fight

"It's okay..." Shen Qiao calmly took out a handkerchief from his sleeve and wiped the blood off his face and hands under Zhang Qiyan's shocked eyes, then burned the handkerchief with a fire talisman.

"Oh... that's a great activity. I'd better pay attention next time."

Zhang Qiyan's face was full of worry, "You are such a..."

Shen Qiao smiled and pushed her away from behind, "It's okay, it's okay. Let's go inside the hall and take a look."

"Are you really okay? Do you want Senior Brother Su to take a look at you? He has also learned some medical skills in recent years."

Shen Qiao took advantage of the opportunity to slip behind her and took off the earrings that were originally hanging on her earlobes and put them into the stored bracelets.

"Hey, this is an old problem, so I won't bother you, Daoist Su."

Today is bound to be a mess. I don’t know how Wangyou is doing, but she doesn’t need to worry about this person’s own affairs.

Once he's done with it... we can pretty much implement it as planned.

bang——

The wooden door opened wide without any warning, and the wind created by the door hitting the ground almost extinguished the candles in the hall.

The doors and windows in the house were covered with heavy curtains, and the light was very dim. The only candlelight was still swaying, its brightness uncertain, and the atmosphere was gloomy and depressing.

"That person is right. You are indeed not an ordinary immortal."

A hoarse voice echoed from somewhere, followed by the rhythmic thud of canes hitting the ground. As the voice approached, a staggering, elderly figure walked from the back of the hall to the front.

He looked at the cold man standing at the door and smiled, "It's been nearly a hundred years since we last saw each other, 'Little Taoist Priest'."

As soon as he finished speaking, a group of guards wearing iron armor and holding weapons suddenly rushed out from the darkness. Without exception, they all had dull and resentful expressions, with dark eyes and ferocious faces.

"As you can see, this is the real 'Undead Army'." The real Si Huangxu threw away his crutches and waved his sleeves.

"However, I still made some improvements on them." He raised his head and looked down at them as he spoke.

"As long as I want, they can regain normal consciousness at any time, so strictly speaking, they are not 'dead', but..."

"'Living people.'"

Wang You remained silent, his eyes dark and unfathomable.

Si Huangxu didn't seem to care whether he responded or not. He continued like an omniscient being in control of the situation, "'She' told me... that the reason you rarely take action is because your identity constrains your behavior."

"You control life and death, but you must obey the laws of nature. Therefore, you will not kill those living things whose lives have not yet ended."

The more he spoke, the more he felt that he had won.

"So, now you have three choices: Either you kill them, and kill me as well. I don't know what kind of punishment you'll receive, but I think a punishment like yours wouldn't be any better than a mere 'human' being annihilated, right?"

"Or, if you don't do it, let your little disciple do it. She's not bound by any rules and won't be punished. But... if she were to deal with people like me at her level, she would only be hacked to death, right?"

Wang Youting sneered, "What about the third one?"

Seeing that he finally responded, Si Huangxu's eyes became even more proud, "You stay, follow me, and unify the four clans!"

"Ah......"

Wang You finally couldn't help laughing out loud, as if he had heard something extremely funny.

"With you?" he said, taking a step forward.

"A mere ant, you think you can threaten me?"

As he approached, Si Huangxu became visibly flustered. He couldn't help but take a step back and said to himself, "So you don't agree?"

Wang You was still smiling, but the more he looked at her smile, the more strange and playful it seemed.

Si Huangxu suddenly felt a sense of loss of control. He immediately waved his sleeves and gave an order, "Kill him for me!"

The soldiers whose souls were controlled obviously did not know what fear was, and therefore seemed even more fearless. They instantly pointed their sharp weapons at the people coming towards them, raised them up, and chopped them down.

However, just when Si Huangxu thought that Wang You would stop, this group of ghost soldiers that he was proud of suddenly caught fire in an instant. The cold blue flames immediately illuminated the entire hall and also reflected on Si Huangxu's pale and panicked face.

Before he could react to his shock, the nearly one hundred undead soldiers in front of him were all burned to ashes in an instant, leaving no ashes behind.

Nearly a hundred! Just one successful first-generation experimental subject in the main hall ahead had already been held up for so long, yet these nearly a hundred complete bodies were gone in the blink of an eye...!

"The law of all things... well said." Wang You said as he walked. Although there was a smile on his face, his voice was terribly cold.

Si Huangxu was shocked, and all his cultivation power was gone. Under the great fear, he turned around and tried to run, but his legs were shaking. He just took a step and fell to the ground in a mess, wailing.

"Si Huang Xu. He has arbitrarily occupied the bodies of others, and by stealing and privately exchanging the lives of others, he has wasted decades of his life in this world of the living."

"After being discovered, he showed no remorse and threatened the executioner's life, intending to resist."

"As for the crime: His soul will be scattered there, and he will never be able to reincarnate."

Wang You was already standing behind him, but Si Huangxu lay on the ground but didn't dare to look back.

This man is no longer the young monk who saved him back then... He has changed... He has changed a long time ago...

He crawled forward regardless, dragging his legs that had long been paralyzed by fear and moving with difficulty. In fact, he had not moved a few steps when a force grabbed his neck and lifted him up out of thin air.

Wang You tightened his grip and directly forced out Si Huangxu's current soul. "A hundred years ago, that young Taoist priest from Tianxing Sect hadn't recovered these memories yet. By chance, he saved your life. Who would have thought that a hundred years later, you would actually become evil and study these ghost arts to harm others."

He spoke without hesitation, grasping Si Huangxu's soul in his hands and examining it. "Now that he has 'suddenly come to his senses,' he has come to personally settle the karma he created with you."

After he finished speaking, Si Huangxu's soul was crushed by Wang You into countless transparent fragments that gradually dissipated.

After doing all this, Wang You turned around and left.

"So...what does the killing and saving of people by this cultivator called Wang You have to do with me?"

"So this is ah!"

After hearing the explanation, Su Tingyu nodded in understanding, "I thought I was dead today, but I didn't expect that I was wrong about Fellow Daoist Shen."

Zhang Qiyan didn't know if it was his illusion, but his senior brother Su had some...indescribable subtle changes since he was slashed by Shen Qiao's sword.
