In the desolate world, a bloody full moon hangs high in the sky. The earth was vast, pitch black, and covered with rotten and dirty mud.
On the top of the vast expanse of land, a tall and tall peak stands here. At the top of the ten thousand-foot peak, there stood a huge rusty wooden cross.
At this moment, a bald female ghost wearing a blood-colored windbreaker was nailed to a huge wooden cross, unable to move.
This female ghost is none other than Li Shange’s red-clothed fierce ghost—Wang Susu. Wang Susu's whole body froze, and her hands that were originally bound by wires were forcibly torn apart by an unknown and terrifying force.
With her arms outstretched, she was nailed to the cross, unable to move. Wang Susu struggled desperately, trying to break free from the cross.
But no matter how hard she tried, it was to no avail. Because she was forcibly suppressed by a force that was several times more terrifying than her.
And just as she was struggling desperately, suddenly, a dense flock of black crows flew in from the yellowing sky in the distance.
The eyes of these crows turned white, their bodies were highly decomposed, and they were filled with the smell of decay. The sharp beaks of this group of black crows spilled black liquid, fluttering their white-bone wings, and quickly attacked Wang Susu on the cross.
The crows landed on Wang Susu's body one after another and began to eat her flesh and blood crazily.
A moment later, all the black crows flew into the sky from the wooden cross and quickly disappeared.
There was nothing left on the cross where Wang Susu was originally nailed, only a tattered blood-colored windbreaker hanging on it, swaying in the wind.
...
"Wang Susu, come and save me!!" But Li Shange screamed, and there was no response from Wang Susu.
"Die!!" Xiao Douya slowly raised his right hand and whispered the word to Li Shange. The moment these two words were spoken, Li Shange's body began to twist and deform violently, as if being grasped by a big invisible hand in the void.
"Bang!" The next moment, Li Shange's body turned into blood mist and exploded. Li Shange died, just like that, he was clutched to death by little bean sprouts.
Also dying with him were the three white-clothed ghosts whose heads were twisted into twists. They were all also grabbed alive and turned into blood mist that filled the sky.
The red eyes of Xiao Douya flashed with endless murderous intent. She tilted her head, strode to the place where Li Shange died, picked up a black rope from it, and held it firmly in her hand.
The soul-binding rope was finally obtained.
"Mission...completed!!" Xiao Douya looked up at the sky and exhaled a deep breath of hot crimson breath.
"Let's go back!!" The red light in Xiao Dou Ya's eyes lit up, and then, the next second, the bodies of Chu Yu and Gu Haji were captured from a distance by some terrible force, and floated directly on Xiao Dou Ya. His body stopped moving.
.....In the Taoist temples of Maoshan and Houshan. Sai Laoxian and the old man in purple sat cross-legged facing each other.
"Senior brother, you're fine!!" The old man in purple smiled kindly and bowed respectfully to Sai Laoxian.
"Stop talking nonsense! I'm not here to catch up with you when I come back this time!" Sai Laoxian pressed his nose and glared at the old man in purple.
"I'm here this time to get the seven-star lantern! Don't even think about stopping me!" Sai Laoxian shook his legs with a wretched look on his face.
"Seven-star lantern? It's easy to talk about! If you want it, senior brother, I'll give it to you!" The old man in purple smiled and agreed.
"Hey! Third Junior Brother, when did you become so happy?!" When Sai Laoxian heard this, his eyes widened and he asked with a look of surprise.
"It's just a seven-star lantern, it's just an external thing! It's of no use to a poor man!" The old man in purple clothes still smiled, with an amiable expression and a righteous look.
"Senior brother! During the hundred years since you disappeared, Master and the others have been thinking about you and wanted you to come back..." The old man in purple sighed and smiled bitterly.
"Let me come back?"
"There's no need for that! After all, I died a long time ago and now I'm a ghost!!" After hearing this, Sai Laoxian quickly shook his head in rejection.
"Senior brother, I can give you the seven-star lantern, but you must come back!!"
"If you can't do it, it's a pity that you can't take this seven-star lantern away!" The old man in purple stroked his beard and said with a smile.
"Are you threatening me again?!" Upon hearing this, Sai Laoxian immediately glared.
"No! Senior brother, please don't misunderstand me. Pindao is not threatening you, but... we will discuss it with you again!!"
"I know you want to use the seven-star lantern to save people, but if you can't agree to Pindao's request, even if I break up with you, it doesn't matter! After all, your current Taoist skills are no longer ten percent good!!" The old man in purple shirt patted him. He patted the dirt on his body, stood up, and walked slowly towards the wooden cabinet behind him. When he came to the cabinet, he rummaged for a while and pulled out a huge brown wooden box.
Holding the wooden box, the old man in purple placed it next to Sai Laoxian.
"This is the Seven Star Lantern! Senior brother... now the decision is in your hands!"
"Either you go back to Maoshan! Or let Pindao completely destroy it now, so that you can no longer save people!!" The old man in purple said with a smile.
"you......"
"Why bother! As a dead person, am I really worth this?" Sai Laoxian shook his head helplessly and whispered.
"This is not my request, but the teacher's order cannot be disobeyed!"
"Tell me, senior brother, tell me your choice. As long as you agree to return to Maoshan, I will definitely give you this seven-star lantern with my own hands!"
"If you can't, then don't blame the poor Taoist!" The old man in purple took out a yellow talisman from his arms, pinched it with two fingers, and it immediately burst into flames.
"Third Junior Brother, you..." Sai Laoxian raised his eyebrows when he saw this. If he was really allowed to burn the Seven Star Lantern, his plan to resurrect Zhang Fan this time would be useless.
This is obviously forcing himself, and he wants to agree to his request no matter what. How abominable!
When did this third child become so shameless? He was completely different from the ignorant boy back then.
Could it be that they were led astray by the old man?
"What? Senior brother, have you thought about it?" The old man in purple asked with a smile when he saw Old Fairy Sai was silent.
"Good boy, you third child, you did this to your senior brother and me!" Sai Laoxian was furious, rolled up his sleeves, and was about to rush up and beat the old man in purple hard.
But as soon as he made a move, the old man in purple was about to stuff the burning yellow talisman into the wooden box.
"No, no, no! Just stop it first, why don't I promise you?!" Seeing that the other party really wanted to burn the seven-star lantern, Sai Laoxian became anxious and could only bite the bullet and agree.
"That's right! If this had been the case, Junior Brother, I wouldn't have to go to such trouble!" Seeing Sai Laoxian's promise, the old man in purple smiled happily, quickly blew out the burning yellow talisman, and smiled as he put out the seven-star lantern. The wooden box was handed to Sai Laoxian.
