"A malfunctioning array?! You're a spirit mage?!" The woman in black, whom Lao Lei called Second Sister, trembled with fear upon seeing the runes beneath Ying Li's feet and the Heavenly Dog Spirit Guide behind him. Although they lacked mental control abilities, they were very familiar with spirit mages, these geniuses who roamed the proud continent.

It was precisely because they knew that Yao Fan possessed mind control abilities, and that these abilities were only in their nascent stages, that they dared to contact Hou Bang and his wife through this dirty scheme. They went to great lengths to capture Yao Fan, even knowing that her master was very powerful. They still couldn't resist their greed and, clinging to a侥幸心理 (a gambler's mentality), hoped to use the Yao couple to capture Yao Fan before her master discovered her abilities, thereby absorbing her mind control powers and becoming a spiritualist.

But is this girl in front of me really Yao Fan? Yao Fan is said to have strong mental control abilities, but he is far from being able to set up a malfunction array. This girl in front of me can not only set up a malfunction array, but she can also set up a malfunction array at the same time as setting up a spirit magic array. This is clearly at the level of a red-robed spirit magic master!

Whether getting involved with these kinds of people is a blessing or a curse is unknown. But the reality is, they've already gotten involved, and there's no way out.

"Roar!" A deafening roar caused a great commotion in the old mansion. Ying Li stood in front of the Heavenly Dog, his eyes clear and his face radiant. Looking at the three people opposite him, he immediately felt confident.

As long as her mental control doesn't fail, she can keep these three people occupied for a while, giving herself the opportunity to leave.

Ying Li thought there was only one Lao Lei, but now there are two more top-level spiritual cultivators to help him. It's even more difficult for him to fight. For now, it's better to stay alive than to run out of firewood. He can use the Heavenly Dog Spirit Guide to fight for a while, and then take revenge when his master arrives.

"Girl, now's the time." Nan Chuan watched the scene unfold from within the Bone Ring. He had once considered lending his power to Ying Li, but considering the various drawbacks of being in a deep sleep, he couldn't help Ying Li find a way to control the Bone Ring. So he could only suppress his emotions and watch the battle from within the Bone Ring.

Ying Li nodded, and spiritual power surged from the withered bone ring in her hand. A powerful spiritual energy coursed through her body, and she said coldly, "I will use the lost spiritual energy to my advantage and kill all my enemies before me!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Tengu Reijin charged fiercely towards the pair of sisters opposite him!

"Roar!" A roar resounded, shaking the very earth. The tengu, its eyes bloodshot, charged towards the sisters, its gaping maw unleashing a torrent of powerful spiritual energy! The immense spiritual energy instantly attacked the sisters, while simultaneously using its claws as weapons. The tengu charged forward, its claws relentlessly clawing and slashing as the sisters dodged, growling and its face displaying a fierce and murderous intent.

Although the Heavenly Dog was powerful, Ying Li felt it was too docile, unlike some other spiritual guides. Its defense was extremely high, but its attack power was somewhat weak. It even struggled against two experts at the spiritual cultivation level. Could it be because the Heavenly Dog was still very young?

As Ying Li was thinking this, a glint of light suddenly flashed across the pale faces of the two sisters in front of her, as if to say, "This malfunctioning array is nothing special after all!"

Ying Li looked at the Heavenly Dog Spirit Guide, and sure enough, it had begun to fall downwards. His mental control was still quite strong, so the problem could only lie with the spirit guide itself. This Heavenly Dog Spirit Guide was obtained from the real Yao Fan; could it be a minor spirit guide?

“Girl, this Heavenly Dog Spirit is still young. It will probably take several more years for it to develop its ability to subdue enemies. It is already extremely lucky that it has recognized you as its master. In my opinion, let’s leave first and come back to avenge this arrow wound in the future! We originally came here to save Yao Fan’s parents, but who knew that his parents were so wicked and had harmed you so badly. We should remember those girls who died tragically and come back to rid the people of this scourge when we have the chance!” Nan Chuan said hurriedly, his face showing anxiety.

Looking at the Tengu Spirit Guide who was falling into a disadvantageous position, Ying Li hesitated. If she left now, perhaps more girls would be brutally murdered by these people tomorrow. But if she didn't leave now, the Tengu Spirit Guide would definitely be threatened. Once the magic array was destroyed, the Tengu Spirit Guide would surely lose its life. Just as Ying Li finally made up her mind to leave...

The second sister from the old village suddenly gave a strange smile, "I thought the Disillusionment Array was so powerful, but it turns out it's just this weak?! Yao Fan, you'd better admit defeat quickly, and maybe the three of us can spare your life!"

"Pah! Only a fool would believe your nonsense!" Ying Li said coldly, but still waved his hand to summon the Tengu Spirit back. Looking at the Tengu beside him, he saw a small red dot on its head, slowly bleeding. He hadn't expected even the Tengu Spirit to be injured. Ying Li stared at it, his eyes filled with undisguised coldness.

"You're pretty tough. Since you're so eager to die, then we'll grant your wish!" The eldest sister from her hometown looked at Ying Li with a mocking smile. She just couldn't stand women like that. Even though she was on the verge of death, she still had that stubborn, unyielding look in her eyes. She was really annoying!

"Big sister, second sister, hurry up and do it, your little brother is not feeling well!" Old Lei looked at the two of them, and when he turned to look at Ying Li, a strange look appeared between his brows. His extremely charming eyes were filled with a bone-chilling coldness.

Just as Ying Li looked at Lao Lei, the two sisters suddenly shot towards him. Ying Li waved his right hand, creating six barriers in front of them. With a swift pull, he trapped them both inside. With another forceful pull, the two sisters showed slight pain on their faces. At the same time, a bead of sweat dripped from Ying Li's brow and fell to the ground in front of him.

If this continues, her stamina will really reach its limit. The Tengu beside her was eager to try, but Ying Li saw that the other party looked seriously injured and dared not let the other party make a move easily.

Within the two spiritual arrays, people were continuously releasing spiritual energy, which was depleting Ying Li's body. Just as Ying Li was feeling his mental control ability declining, a very familiar voice came from outside the door.

Ying Li's eyes lit up, and a very happy smile appeared on his lips. He released his spiritual power with both hands at the same time, and the spiritual array of his three siblings from his hometown disappeared, no longer binding him.

"Haha, I knew this little bitch couldn't withstand the three of us. It would be so much better if she just surrendered obediently, saving us the trouble of wasting our energy!"

"Hmph, once this little bitch falls, I'm going to give her a good beating with the Illusionary Feather. I really want to see just how much backbone this girl has!"

"Enough talk, let's go!"

The three understood each other and launched a fierce attack in Ying Li's direction, each of them brimming with powerful spiritual energy!

Ying Li stood motionless, his expression indifferent as he awaited the arrival of the three. The three wore expressions of delight, but their gazes towards Ying Li were filled with bloodthirsty killing intent!

"Howl!" Another deafening sound came from the old mansion. In the last five guest rooms on the third floor of the Red Building on Joyful Street, Hou Bang and the others looked at the woman beneath them and were all drenched in sweat. After that deafening sound, everyone's face was filled with shock. That was the residence of Young Master Lei. Could something have happened?

Just as Hou Bang was distracted, the woman beneath him wrapped her two fair arms around his neck. He cursed "Father!", wiped the sweat from his face with the back of his hand, and leaned down, no longer caring about the noise outside.

With a loud "boom," the Wolf Hunter Spirit Guide appeared on the runes behind Ying Li without him noticing. At the same time, the Heavenly Dog Spirit Guide shrank continuously, eventually turning back into its original puppy form. Ying Li turned around and smiled, reaching out to stroke the fur on the Wolf Hunter Spirit Guide's chest. With a smirk, he climbed onto the wolf's back, his face filled with a murderous expression.

"Kill!" Ying Li's lips parted slightly, and the withered bone ring in her right hand spun and churned continuously. Her spiritual power more than doubled. Now, let her fight to her heart's content!

"Another malfunctioning array?!" Old Lei could no longer hide the shock on his face, his lips trembling as he looked at Ying Li sitting on the Hunter Wolf Spirit Guide. This Hunter Wolf was more than ten times larger than the Heavenly Dog from before, its attack power was naturally beyond question, not to mention that Ying Li had actually doubled his mental control ability. Could it be that the opponent had been holding back from attacking all along?!

But it was too late to say anything now. The wolf hunter stood in the distorted array, his spiritual power surging. Looking at the three henchmen at the spiritual cultivation stage in front of him, he leaned forward and pounced on them with his left claw carrying extremely powerful spiritual power. In an instant, the spiritual power pressed down on the three of them. Old Lei only saw a huge dark claw rushing towards him. He subconsciously used all his spiritual power to block it, but he only felt a crushing sensation in his chest. His vision went black, and he lost consciousness.

With a single palm strike, the three were instantly killed. Yao Fan, who rushed over, was so shocked by the scene before her that she swallowed hard. A giant wolf spirit was standing in front of her, and a girl in green sat on its back. The girl had a serene face, but her expression was stern and resolute. For a moment, Yao Fan was stunned. Was this the same little girl she had bumped into this morning?

She sat there like an elf in the night, her presence alone enough to overwhelm anyone without uttering a word.

The three siblings, Lao Lei and his sister, were found dead against the wall of the inner room. A large, horrifying dent had formed in the wall, and all three lay inside. Blood began to slowly seep out of the floor, gradually forming a small river.

Countless streams of spiritual energy rushed toward the black feathers on the table in the inner room. Seven or eight of them rushed toward the girls who were tied to the bedside. The girls were unconscious, but the moment the spiritual energy entered their bodies, their eyes suddenly flashed, as if they had come back to life. Then the spiritual energy disappeared again, and all of them became ordinary people without any spiritual energy. In their place, the black feather marks on each of their arms disappeared!

Could this be the way to break Huan Yu's magic? Yao Fan looked at Ying Li, his shock turning into admiration. He was speechless at the fact that she had encountered such a talented girl!
