Terrifying Heavens: I Slay Demons by Painting Faces

Chen Hengyi felt a chill and slammed on the brakes.

Suddenly, I could no longer see anything in the rearview mirror; it was all covered by a red glow, and the temperature inside the car plummeted.

"So arrogant... They dare to come out before the sun has even set."

A strong smell, like moldy, rotten meat dried by time, suddenly entered my nostrils.

White, misty particles floated before my eyes, like dust from the underworld.

The mist seemed to come alive, creeping into Chen Hengyi's nostrils, causing him to frown.

"snort!"

With a cold snort, a burst of fiery passion erupted from his nostrils.

The fire, like a dragon, swirled towards the yin energy inside the car.

With a hiss, wisps of smoke appeared, and the temperature inside the car rose again.

Chen Hengyi narrowed his phoenix eyes, a crimson light flashing in his pupils, but he saw no trace of the female ghost.

Are they hiding? Or is it because they can't show their true form during the day?

He thought for a moment, then blurted out, "You want to kill me? Because you're afraid of losing your groom?"

"You're a disgusting, ugly thing, you'll never have him."

"No wonder you have sores on your face and are all alone; you're a cursed star and will never find happiness..."

"You're a piece of trash. Do you think you're good enough for Liu Chenghao? I feel disgusted just smelling you. Your sincerity is nothing but a lump..."

As Chen Hengyi was speaking, he suddenly heard a cracking sound.

Several spiderweb-like cracks appeared out of nowhere on the passenger side window.

At the center of the crack, a dark red stain slowly seeped out, like dried blood or old rouge.

The interior of the car suddenly dimmed; although it was still afternoon outside, it felt as if night had fallen early inside.

The musty smell was stronger, mixed with a faint, cloying fragrance of perfume.

Chen Hengyi's lips curled into a cold smile: "Can't even handle this? I haven't finished yet."

Chen Hengyi's voice suddenly turned stern: "No one loved you when you were alive, and now you're trying to take someone else after you're dead. You're just deceiving yourself."

As soon as he finished speaking, the car windows shattered instantly, the glass shards resembling tiny knives aimed at Chen Hengyi.

At that very moment, time seemed to stand still.

Chen Hengyi's pupils contracted. In the reflection of the glass knife, he saw a ghost bride in a phoenix coronet and wedding gown sitting in the back row, staring at him with dead fish-like, venomous eyes.

Upon seeing this, he was not surprised but delighted, and quickly covered his face with his hands.

Whoosh whoosh! !

The dense shards of glass pierced his body, causing not only excruciating pain but also the ghost bride's malevolent energy attempting to control him.

Fresh blood flowed out.

finally found you!

At this moment, he disregarded the stinging pain from the glass, and the yin energy invading his body was resisted by the playful fire.

The next moment, he spat out a handful of fire into his hand, forming a flaming spearhead.

He thrust straight at the ghost bride, roaring domineeringly, "Hey! You fiend, take this!"

His roar, imbued with the fierce aura he exuded while portraying Zhang Fei, echoed continuously through the vehicle.

However, just as the spear tip was about to touch the ghost bride, the red figure in the back seat suddenly disintegrated.

Almost simultaneously, a chilling cold surged from under the driver's seat, and a pale hand suddenly reached out, its five fingers like hooks, grabbing straight for Chen Hengyi's crotch...!

In the midst of this extreme crisis, Chen Hengyi unleashed tremendous potential and leaped forward, but the ghostly claws still managed to tear several pieces of cloth to shreds.

Tear--!

"Damn it, you're dead!!"

His expression changed drastically, and as he lowered his head, he spat out the fire as if it were free.

Playing with fire has the property of subduing demons and monsters. When it burns on that ghost's hand, it's as if it has encountered its natural enemy, sizzling and crackling.

In an instant, with a loud bang, flames shot out from the shattered car window.

Chen Hengyi kicked the car door open and leaped out.

"Ah—" followed by a piercing wail.

He turned around and saw a red figure disappear in a disheveled state amidst the raging flames.

The ghost ran away.

He then looked down and saw that he looked a little disheveled, but he was not injured.

The fire inside the carriage was still burning, but Chen Hengyi reached out and pulled it back.

After checking, I immediately felt a pang of heartache; that one bite had directly depleted a third of my Fire reserves.

The situation just now was extremely critical; no man could remain calm under pressure.

Fortunately, Chen Hengyi was quick-witted... He gritted his teeth and pulled the glass shards out of his hand. As soon as the wound was exposed, blood spurted out with a hiss.

But soon the [Qi Absorption and Rejuvenation] took effect, and the bleeding disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Chen Hengyi got back into the car and headed towards Li Chenghao's house.

However, his car was dilapidated and quickly attracted attention on the road.

Beep beep—!

Less than ten minutes later, Chen Hengyi was pulled over.

Two police officers, one older and one younger, got out of the police car.

A young policeman frowned, his gaze sweeping over the shattered car window and the bloodstains on Chen Hengyi's body. His tone was stern: "Sir, please show me your driver's license. What happened to your car? And these injuries..."

Suddenly, he saw the license plate and, as if remembering something, became a little nervous. He paused, then said, "Sir, you might need help. Please wait a moment; the ambulance will be here soon."

Chen Hengyi took in all of this, and with a quick glance, he noticed another policeman who seemed indifferent: "Damn, friend, you've got some serious trouble."

As he spoke, the old policeman walked over and handed Chen Hengyi a cigarette.

Chen Hengyi waved his hand, not wanting to waste time: "This isn't my car. I'm in a hurry to fight ghosts... I don't want any trouble. If there are any paperwork involved, please resolve it as soon as possible."

"Fight ghosts?" The old policeman exhaled a puff of choking white smoke, looking at Chen Hengyi suspiciously. "You think you can just fight ghosts like that? Young man, don't talk big so easily."

"Do you need proof?"

"Yes, if you can prove it, I'll drive you to your destination now."

With a smile, Chen Hengyi extended his right hand and held it out to the old policeman, saying with a laugh, "Take a good look."

Snapped!

After a snap of his fingers, the cigarette in the old policeman's mouth suddenly burst into flames, burning the mouthpiece in the blink of an eye.

The scalding temperature made him quickly spit out the cigarette butt.

"Ptooey! What is this?!"

Immediately afterward, Chen Hengyi waved his hand, and the flames on the ground seemed to come alive, landing in his hand.

Five twisted fire characters were formed.

Things used to fight ghosts.

This scene made the young policeman who was hanging up the phone nearby widen his eyes in astonishment.

"No... I think I'm seeing things..."

The old policeman reached out and touched the fiery characters; his fingertips felt a slight warmth, but no burning pain.

The body's reaction clearly proves that this is not some kind of illusion or magic trick... but just now, his cigarette butt was clearly...

His mind went blank for a moment; he couldn't figure it out.

The old policeman abruptly withdrew his hand, the playful expression on his face vanishing completely, replaced by surprise and a hint of awe.

"You...you really are..."
