Chapter 160 - 153: Triple Kill

Chapter 160: Chapter 153: Triple Kill

"No."

Xia Yu shook her head. "I don’t have the time, nor am I in the mood."

???

The scholar and the Ancient-dressed Woman were taken aback, clearly not expecting Xia Yu to speak so bluntly. Their expressions hardened. "If that’s how it is, then don’t blame us for being impolite," they said coldly.

"Kill!"

They finally dropped the act, revealing their hideous and terrifying Evil Ghost forms as they lunged forward.

"Go!"

Xia Yu grunted, and with a flick of her wrist, was about to shoot out her oral organ.

However, the scholar and the Ancient-dressed Woman had anticipated this. They had clearly been watching Xia Yu fight earlier and had learned some of her tricks, so... they chose to strike first! To stop her!

In the next moment...

"Huh?"

Xia Yu felt the scholar and the Ancient-dressed Woman suddenly vanish before her. In their place stood Little Flower.

If she shot the oral organ now, she would undoubtedly hit Little Flower.

She might even kill Little Flower.

This bizarre sight made her instinctively pause her wrist.

And in that moment of hesitation...

WHOOSH.

WHOOSH.

The scholar and the Ancient-dressed Woman dodged the attack, the sense of danger in their hearts gone. Without hesitation, they teleported and pounced on Little Flower!

They had to kill Little Flower while the other child ghost was blinding Xia Yu’s eyes and deafening her ears!

In their eyes, Xia Yu wasn’t the threat. The real danger was Little Flower!

HUMMM.

Little Flower surged with endless Yin Qi, fearlessly colliding with them.

As expected, Little Flower was at a disadvantage.

This was because the scholar and the Ancient-dressed Woman were more skilled and precise in their use of Yin Qi, even able to condense it into Yin Blades and other objects for combat.

"Be careful. It’s best not to get injured. Otherwise, there’s no guarantee the ghost upstairs won’t devour us."

The scholar warned.

They had just tried to negotiate a partnership, but failed. Only then did they choose to take Xie Chengyong hostage in hopes of dealing with Xia Yu and Little Flower. Now, it seemed... they had to rely on themselves after all.

"Don’t worry."

The Ancient-dressed Woman watched Little Flower, who was constantly dodging, and said, "This Ghost Face has a body full of Yin Qi, even denser than ours, but its combat power is pitifully weak."

"It’s obviously a new ghost that just had some kind of lucky break."

"It’s no match for us."

"Don’t get careless."

"Let’s end this quickly."

The scholar warned again, "To prevent any unexpected changes."

The Ancient-dressed Woman didn’t respond, but her movements quickened slightly.

’An illusion?’

’Or something else?’

Xia Yu didn’t know much about the abilities of the Ghost Clan. Most of her knowledge was hearsay from her past life, but ’hearsay’ was often false and unreliable.

’Whatever.’

She couldn’t figure it out, so she couldn’t be bothered to think about it anymore. She directly began chanting the Nameless Mantra to herself.

However, the scene before her didn’t change: Little Flower was still standing in front, blocking her path. The hotel owner and Master Hong were still squatting to the side, and behind them was Red Sister.

She just couldn’t find the scholar and the Ancient-dressed Woman!

!!!

At this moment, Xia Yu realized the trouble she was in was even greater than she had imagined.

She took a deep breath and continued chanting the Nameless Mantra while extending her senses to perceive her surroundings carefully.

’Yin Qi!’

’There’s Yin Qi on me!’

’To be more precise, it’s around my eyes, ears, and the back of my neck!’

Instantly, the outline of a ghost formed in Xia Yu’s mind: a small ghost, clinging to the back of her neck, covering her eyes and ears.

’In that case...’

She looked again at the illusion of Little Flower walking toward her, constantly saying things like, "Master, let’s get out of here." Realizing she hadn’t yet shaken off the ’ghost’, she steeled herself!

And then...

WHOOSH.

Xia Yu actually closed her eyes, gripped the Blood Butterfly in her hand, and stabbed it toward her own eye!

At this very moment, a child ghost was indeed clinging to the back of Xia Yu’s neck. It was the same one that had been following the scholar and the Ancient-dressed Woman. It had originally thought dealing with a woman would be simple.

After all, it had dealt with many women.

Women had more Yin Qi, making them much easier to handle than men.

However, it soon realized it was wrong:

First, while Xia Yu had a lot of Yin Qi, she also had just as much yang energy.

Second, Xia Yu was a First-grade Spiritual Life. The surging Spiritual Energy in her body was constantly washing over it, forcing it to leave.

Finally, Xia Yu seemed to be using some kind of Magic to deal with ghosts, causing it immense pain all over its body and even making its Yin Qi rapidly dissipate.

Under the combination of these three factors, the child ghost was in agony.

It was on the verge of collapsing on the spot.

"Hurry!"

"I can’t hold on much longer."

It could only shout this at the scholar and the Ancient-dressed Woman.

’It can’t hold on after such a short time?’

The scholar and the Ancient-dressed Woman were suddenly startled. They knew how terrifying the child ghost was. Despite its small size, its combat power was extraordinary, no weaker than their own!

And it couldn’t even handle a single woman?

They subconsciously looked in the child ghost’s direction, and then... their expressions changed drastically!

PFFT!

They watched in horror as Xia Yu stabbed the Blood Butterfly into the child ghost’s hand. With incredible control, she didn’t pierce it through, stopping the blade half an inch from her own eyeball.

She had been a hair’s breadth away from blinding herself!

"AHHH!"

The child ghost let out a bloodcurdling scream and instinctively loosened its grip.

The scene before Xia Yu’s eyes instantly changed.

She knew her gamble had paid off!

’Then... I’ll continue!’

PFFT!

She swung the Blood Butterfly, and with her precise control, easily left several wounds on the child ghost’s body, until the child ghost completely detached from her.

"Die!"

With a flick of her wrist, Xia Yu sent several oral organs flying toward Xie Chengyong.

"AHH!"

Xie Chengyong, who had just happened to see this, was terrified and violently pulled Master Hong in front of him.

The next moment.

PFFT!

"AHHH!"

A bloodcurdling scream rang out.

What ordinary people could hear was Master Hong’s scream.

What ghosts could hear was the child ghost’s scream.

Xia Yu knew the oral organ had passed through the child ghost’s body and struck Master Hong.

HUMMM!

Immediately after, she felt a vast yet diffuse Yin Qi spread out.

This was the sign that the child ghost had been killed and had dissipated into Yin Qi.

!!!

On the other side, the scholar and the Ancient-dressed Woman were aghast, their assault faltering.

The pressure on Little Flower eased, and she quickly sent a ’help me’ signal to Xia Yu.

"That’s one."

Without even glancing at the still-screaming Master Hong, Xia Yu pulled the oral organ directly from his body and charged toward the scholar and the Ancient-dressed Woman.

The oral organ was a Spiritual Power Weapon; it could harm ghosts, but it could also harm her!

Therefore, she absolutely could not leave this Weapon lying around.

"AHHH!"

As the oral organ was pulled from Master Hong’s body, blood immediately started gushing from the wound.

Already injured and quite weak, he was now as feeble as an infant.

"Amitabha Buddha."

"My apologies, Master."

"I’ll compensate you afterward."

WHOOSH!

Xie Chengyong got up and ran for the fourth floor.

He had figured it out. This place was too dangerous; it was better to get far away. Plus, this was a good chance to see who was hiding on the fourth floor and causing him all this trouble!

"Wait for this poor monk!"

Master Hong was no fool either and immediately followed close behind.

WHOOSH.

Red Sister hesitated for a moment, then followed them as well.

For a moment, the entire third floor was empty, save for the corpses lying on the ground, and Xia Yu, Little Flower, the scholar, and the Ancient-dressed Woman.

With Xia Yu’s participation, the tide of the battle had completely turned.

The Blood Butterfly and oral organ in her hands made the scholar and the Ancient-dressed Woman extremely wary. The key was... they were incredibly hard to dodge!

If this dragged on, these two ghosts would undoubtedly die.

So, while fighting for their lives, they looked toward the fourth floor and shouted, "We’re begging you, please save us! We’ll do anything you ask!"
